My Brother's Bed Rattles
Baby Lily


Tin ... tin! There was a horn on the front page of Oma Hana's house.


"Ah, that must be Bang Ay! Just a minute, Oma!"


Rachel ran into the front room with such vigor. He had been waiting for the man since noon.


"Well, Ay?" Suddenly Risa's heart beat rapidly after hearing the man's name mentioned. He looked nervous and anxious.


"Ayden, Oma's grandson, Ris." Oma Hana smiled looking at Risa.


"Wine! Why did Mas Ayden even come here!" risa's murmuring in the heart.


"Ehm, Mom. Lily was sleepy. Here, let me take him to the room so he can rest," said Risa as she extended her hands in front of Oma Hana.


Oma Hana who was cool carrying baby Lily, bent her face while looking at the worried face of Risa. "Don't Lily just wake up? How could he sleep again."


The middle-aged woman smiled. "Already, Risa. Fear not! Oma's granddaughter is not the type of jerk, really. He is good and Oma believes he must be happy to meet Lily, because he is loving children," said Oma Hana while patting slowly on Risa's shoulder.


Risa rubbed her face violently. "Yes, Oma. I also know that Mas Ayden is good, but the problem is that I don't want to meet him here under these conditions! Aduhhhh," Risa muttered softly while scratching her non-itchy head.


"Younob! Really screwed! Yeah, God! Didn't I ever pray to be kept away from Mas Ayden. Why are you getting closer to me now?" risa continued with a panicked face.


Faintly Oma Hana heard the voice of Risa's curse. Unfortunately, he did not hear clearly what the woman was saying.


"What did you say, Ris?" asked Oma Hana while linking her two eyebrows looking at Risa.


"Huh? Ah, it's nothing, Oma." Risa smiled wryly.


Meanwhile on the outside.


"Bang Ay! Finally," exclaimed Rachel as she approached Ayden and hugged her sturdy arm tightly.


"What the hell is going on, Chel? I'm worried that since yesterday afternoon you've been avoiding calls from me. Even hundreds of my chats you did not reply," said Ayden, bending his face.


"I did do it on purpose to get Bang Ay to follow me here" Rachel said.


Bugh!


The sound of a car door being slammed very hard. Ayden and Rachel reflexively turned their heads toward the origin of the sound.


"You?!" screeched Rachel with furrowed brows looking at Renatta.


Rachel pulled Ayden's hand violently then whispered beside the man's ear. "Why does Bang Ay even make him, anyway? Ah, Bang Ay is not exciting!"


"He himself wants to come. I myself was confused as to how to refuse it," Ayden replied in a whisper.


"Ekhhhhhhhhhhh!" The blonde girl was upset. He did not like it when the two men were whispering in front of him.


"Let's go in, Ren," asked Ayden while smiling wryly looking at the girl.


"Please help me, Mom. My leg is still hurting" he said grimacingly.


"What's your leg, Ren?" rachel asked as she watched the scuff wound on Renatta's leg.


"So in the cafe he fell for tripping over a stone. Finally his legs were scuffed and bleeding, "Ayden replied as he approached Renatta.


Ayden extended his hand before Renatta, to help the girl walk. However, Rachel suddenly pulled her hand violently.


"Let me, Bang Ay. Bang Ay just go first, sneak!" tell Rachel as she grabs Renatta's hand and holds him firmly.


"But—" Ayden looked uncomfortable.


"All right then." Ayden immediately breezed in and left Renatta and Rachel in the courtyard.


"Mas!" call Renatta who looks protesting.


"Already, Ren. Let me help you. After all, we are both women so it is better than you are Bang Ay, not muhrim," Rachel chuckled softly.


Renatta refused because he wanted Ayden to help him. However, since Ayden had already left himself to enter the house first, Renatta was forced to accept help from the girl.


"You're better, Ren. The feeling of a five-year-old child is not as good as this just because of a slight scratch," Rachel chanted while holding Renatta's body holding on to him.


"Eh, Chel. I've never been hurt in my life, yeah! My mom and dad always took good care of me. Let's see my knee, blisters like this. I'm sure, my mom and dad must have been shocked to see this wound of mine" he lamented.


Rachel laughed at the girl's words. "You know not, Ren. I don't think you fit in side by side with Bang Ay, Bang Ay is hardworking and abstaining from complaining in the slightest. While you? These scuff wounds you've grimaced and complained like this?"


"Hush, quiet!" pissed Renatta.

In the television room.


"Oma, excuse me to go to the restroom first, yes," said Risa who could not bear to escape from the room.


"Yes, okay. But not for long, yeah. Let Oma know Ayden, Oma's favorite grandson," said Oma Hana.


"Okay, Oma." Risa rushed out of the room and hid in the bathroom.


A minute after Risa left the room. Ayden arrived there and immediately approached Oma Hana who was still relaxing on the sofa while holding baby Lily.


"Oma," said Ayden.


"Oh, Ayden! You've finally arrived, baby. Do you know, since noon Rachel just kept talking about you" said Oma Hana.


Ayden grabbed the hand of Oma Hana then kissed the woman's hand gently.


"Sit, Honey. And drink that cold drink," said Oma while pointing to several glasses of cold drinks that had been prepared by Risa before.


"Okay, Oma."


Ayden grabbed one of the cold drinks. While chugging the cold drink, Ayden's attention was on the tiny baby who was in the arms of Oma Hana.


"Whose baby is that, Oma?"


"Oh, here. This is the new nurse Oma's baby" replied Oma Hana with a smile.


"Oh yeah, I forgot, Oma. Rachel told me about it." Ayden's gaze was still fixed on the tiny baby and suddenly he gasped in shock after finding out who the tiny baby really was.


"Oma, what's this baby's name?" ayden asked with round eyes looking at Oma Hana.


"Huh, this baby's name, huh?"


Ayden nodded quickly. "Yes." Yeah."


"My name is Lily Angraeni, Om. Just call me Lily" Oma replied as she waved Lily's hand at Ayden. And the funny thing is, the little baby smiled broadly at Ayden.


"Lilly?!" peekkik Ayden's.
