Sanjeev loves me very much. Evidently, for my sake Brother Sanjeev is willing to donate his blood to HansH even though he still cannot accept HansH's treatment of me. And thanks to his help, HansH was able to get through his critical period. He survived the accident despite taking a long time to heal his legs, and doctors said he had to go through a series of therapies for about a year to get back to normal walking without the help of a cane.
"Thank you" I said, hugging Brother Sanjeev as he agreed to donate his blood. I cried so much, but I was so happy. "You're the best brother" I said. "My brother's the best. Thank you, Brother."
But he was just upset. Hugged me strong as if he wanted to break my bones. And she's crying. "But you're not the best sister" he said. "You don't share your suffering with me. How can you let me be such a useless sister? It's not that I've done anything stupid, I won't care about you anymore. Not so, Zia. I'm still your brother. Do you want mom and dad to be disappointed that I can't make sure my sister lives happily? Hm? You're bad to me."
"Keep talking longer. I like hearing it. I love it when you scold me for being a baby."
Brother Sanjeev's cry became laughter. "I'm complaining about you. You even asked to be scolded."
"I'm sorry," I said. "I'll try to be the best brother. I'm sorry."
Brother Sanjeev smiled, released me from his embrace then he kissed me on my forehead. "Don't cry anymore" she asked, wiping away my tears. "My sister can't cry. You can no longer make your brother like a useless man. Anyway, I'm the first person you should tell and you ask for help in every single one of your problems if that husband you can't hope for. You remember my promise to my little Zia, I will always be behind you to always support you. I will always be by your side to love you. And I will always be in front of you to protect you. No matter what happens, your brother will always be there for you. Okay well? Don't keep anything from me anymore. Not that you've become a wife and I've lost responsibility for my sister. That doesn't happen in our brotherhood. You understand that, Zia?"
I'm nodding.
Hmm. not now. "One day. Not now and not in the present condition. But let me tell you now to my single brother, not all my problems will I tell you, because it's a husband-wife matter. Your sister has become a wife. I must cover up the disgrace in my household. But for sure, I will count on you when I can no longer do anything. Like now, I'm counting on you. So, don't worry, I'll come to you, brother. I will come to you when my path is dead and only my brother can help me. I'll come to you."
"So you don't want to tell me?"
"Sister...."
"Zoe...."
"Easy, huh? Now it's time to help your niece's father. We need your help right now, please?"
"You are, yes." He pinched both of my cheeks in a fit of anxiety. "Until when are you gonna be like this, hmm? You're so stubborn. Fuck up!"
God, how long I haven't heard him tease me, laugh, and hold me this tight. I'm lucky to have it....
