My Brother's Bed Rattles
Renatta's Disappointment

"Rachel, let me go! Just sec. I just wanted to hear that explanation straight from Mas Ayden's mouth. If it's true as you say, then I'll back off!" renatta insisted to Rachel who still locked him in the room.

Rachel breathed a heavy breath. "Ok, just this time! And if what I'm saying proves true, then promise me that you'll never try to get close to my brother again" Rachel said.

Renatta bent his face perfectly. "Are you the same as me?" ogre.

Rachel approached Renatta and grabbed him by the shoulder. "It's not like that, Ren. I like it with you. It's just that I don't like it if you force something that obviously can't, like the feeling of bang Ay. That Bang Ay never had feelings for you. Her love is only one for Risa, her past lover," explains Rachel.

Renatta swallowed his saliva with great difficulty. "I want to hear those words directly from Mas Ayden's lips. If that's the case, then I'll go all the way out of his life."

Rachel smiled then handed over the key to the room door that had been in her grasp since.

"alright. Here's the key and come back as soon as you're done talking to Bang Ay."

"All right."

Renatta grabbed the key with a crisp face and then walked to the door of the room. After opening the door, he immediately went out and looked for Ayden's whereabouts.

"Is it possible that Mas Ayden is still on the terrace? But ... feeling I saw that woman had entered her room, deh," muttered Renatta who had seen a shadow of Risa enter his room.

Only capitalized feeling, Renatta walked to the front porch and it turned out his feeling was right. The woman is still sitting there.

Renatta walked over to Ayden and stood beside the man. "Mas Ayden," he called.

Ayden, who was unaware of the girl's whereabouts, gasped in shock and turned to her.

"Renatta?" his screeches.

"May I sit here?" asked Renatta while pointing at an empty chair that had been occupied by Risa.

Ayden nodded slowly. "Yes, sit down" said Ayden.

Renatta sat in the chair then without making small talk directly with the man.

"Mas!"

"Hmm?" Ayden.

"What have you heard?" Ayden asked back.

"On Risa. Is she really your ex-boyfriend?"

Ayden smiled faintly. "Yes. She was the first woman to break my heart. The first and last woman who was able to reign and rule my heart, even now" Ayden replied.

Renatta grunted in annoyance. His lips curled and his face bent. "Then what about me?"

"I'm sorry, Ren. What I often tell you is true. I just think of you as my sister and there will never be more than that" Ayden explained gently.

"What are Risa's advantages over me, Mom? I am even more beautiful and younger than her. I'm highly educated. My parents are well off and at least I'm still a girl!" pissed Renatta.

Ayden's face was firm. He did not like to hear Renatta starting to compare himself with Risa.

"There's one thing I like most about Risa and it's never going to be from someone like you, Renatta Alicia. Yes, you are right about Risa who is not as beautiful and not as well educated as you. However, to me her heart was much prettier and at least she still had a good adab to anyone."

Renatta was getting more upset after hearing the words from Ayden just now. He stomped his feet on the floor then sauntered away leaving Ayden who was still staring at him with a stern face.

Renatta returned to Rachel's room sobbing. He dropped himself on Rachel's bed and cried hysterically on his stomach.

Rachel who witnessed that could only shake her head. He approached the grieving Renatta and gently stroked his shoulders.

"Already, Ren. Don't cry anymore. You are very young and your life is still very long. You can still get an aspiring life partner who is much more handsome and much better than Bang Ay."

"That's good, Chel. But if you feel what I'm feeling right now, maybe you'll never say that" Renatta replied in between sobs.

"Hmmm ...." Rachel mutters. He leaned against the bed, still beside Renatta's body.

"Tomorrow I'll go home and I'll tell my father and mother everything. They should know that Mas Ayden is not as good as they thought he was. The proof is that the man has dared to hurt my heart just for the sake of someone like Risa," Renatta continued.

Ck! Rachel shook her head and clucked.

"It's up to you, Ren. Do whatever you think is right."
