My Hate, the Water of His Eyes (The End of A Taste)
Equally Dilicious

Bug-bug-bugs!

"Get out!"

Leo's screams filled the room.

Syera's cell phone rang to coincide as screams from outside boomed. He grabbed his phone from the study table and ran to open the door.

Bug-bug-bugs!

"Let's get out!"

Hurriedly Syera opened her bedroom door and did not answer the phone call in her hand due to Leo's screams.

"Sister Leo why yell"

"Who are you?" cutting off the speech of Syera. "Let's tell me who you are?"

"I who? What do you mean, I don't understand."

Leo rubbed his nape, feeling that his anger was about to explode in a moment.

"Aw! Brother, sick."

Leo pulled Syera's arm close to him until their chest clashed.

"Sister why? Sick, sis."

Leo's hand grew stronger and stronger, not to mention the sharp look in his eyes.

"I'm not your brother!" leo's voice is slow but full of emphasis when saying his sentence. "You're not my sister so you don't have the right to call me brother, you understand?"

Leo pressed every word he said to Sherea. His facial bones formed a restraining emotion, he was angry because Syera had lied to him by covering up the truth.

"Why did Leo say that? Why call me now with the word 'you'?" tanya Shera trembled to see Leo's dead red face and endure the pain on her arm.

"Then what should I call you? What, ha? Let's answer what I should call you?" leo asked back in a loud voice.

Leo pushed Syera and took off his grip.

Nah!

After releasing Syera he threw the agenda that he had been holding onto the floor. Syera was surprised why the agenda was on Leo, he was sure if Leo would have read all the contents.

"Let's say what all this means?"

"Sister, i-it-it-"

"What, what? What are you gonna say? Are you content to play me all this time? Do you hate me so much and repay him by lying to me? You must be happy and laughing watching me cry like a child when you say you like you, right?"

"No, sis. It's not like that, Leo's brother was wrong" Sheera argued.

"Haha... Whahuh? I wrong?"

Leo laughed, but his face and eyes turned red and refrained from crying. Leo felt like a fool who had been played with by Syera.

"I was wrong. I was wrong for liking you so much" wiping away her tears.

"Don't cry, brother. Brother Leo must hear me first, I can explain, brother."

"It is not necessary because what is written there is enough to explain everything," pointed to the agenda that Leo had thrown at the floor.

"But Leo's brother must hear me, too" she cried with Leo's arm.

"Well, let's say now what else you want to say. What do you want to say after you've lied to me" insisted Leo. "I can't believe you can still ask me to hear you. Tell me everything you want to say, only you should know that I won't believe anything anymore."

The heart of Syera was hurting to hear Leo seemed to no longer believe him. Her tears flowed looking into Leo's eyes hoping to be trusted.

Syera realizes that she is wrong because she does not directly tell Leo the truth if they are not siblings. Syera waits for the right time to tell her but it turns out Leo knows it first.

"Don't cry, I won't feel sorry for seeing your tears anymore" Leo said. "Don't make me wait so long so say it now."

Syera reached out her hand to wipe away Leo's tears but was immediately pushed aside. Syera gets sadder and feels further and further away from Leo.

"Don't Leo's brother say that he loves me?" ask Syera a hiccup. "Does Leo not love Syera anymore?"

"Shut up! Don't talk about it anymore" growled Leo.

Roughly Leo pulled out Syera's hand and led her to the balcony. One hand he used to drag a small round table from the left corner of the balcony.

Leo placed the table near the balcony railing, lifted up and sat Sherah on the table. The position of the balcony fence which is only as waist Syera makes it creepy when looking back.

Spontaneous both of Syera's hands held iron fences on her left and right sides.

"Don't be like this, brother. I'm afraid," said Syera fearfully. He was trembling and did not dare to move.

"I'll kill you by throwing you down from the seventh floor when you lie again. So hurry up, what do you want to tell me."

"Hiks... But I'm scared like this, brother?"

"Sheera.... Let's say it quickly!"

The sound of Leo's cry was so deafening that Syera added to her fear.

"Hiks... Hix... Don't blame me, it's Leo's fault too!" he shouted at Leo.

"Don't yell at me. If anyone has to scream then that person is me."

While crying Syera further tightened her grip on the balcony fence. His feet were trembling as he cried and shouted earlier.

"I don't think it's been easy for Syera, don't! If not for Leo's brother telling me to forget what happened and will escape the feelings of Leo's brother to me, I will not cover it all, too" explained Syera crying. "Sister Leo is also wrong, brother Leo is evil. Brother Leo said dear but easily spared me. I don't think in a way to tell Leo everything will be okay but unfortunately I'm wrong."

"Follow your head and look me in the eye when you talk to me so I know you're lying or not" Leo ordered. "And don't make my head dizzy by talking in circles, otherwise I'll throw you down" Leo said.

Slowly Syera lifted her head and looked at Leo's eyes with her puffy eyes.

"Let's continue talking. Tell me when you know."

"I knew the day I met Mama Wulandari."

"Why not tell me right away?"

"I'm not sure if Leo's brother will immediately believe because brother has decided to forget the feelings of brother. Then what can Syera do, brother. Everything means nothing anymore. Leo's sister also does not love me and there are other women in Leo's heart, right?"

"What's the matter, do you like me?" ask Leo suddenly.

Can't stand the gaze of the eye plus Leo's question that suddenly makes Syera nervous to take her eyes off Leo.

"Look and answer me or I'll really throw you down now" snapped Leo.

"Karina is beautiful and kind. Brother Leo must really like it let alone aunt Mila also likes it."

"Why are you even talking about Karina, who I'm asking you whether you like me or not?"

As the tears of Syera grew, her lips trembled with a horn it was hard to tell the truth.

"Sheera... Let's talk, don't cry!" press Leo to tighten his teeth. "Your eyes won't be able to solve everything."

Sheera's cell phone she put in her nightgown pocket when Leo pulled her into the balcony rang. Syera looked towards her sleeping suit pocket, she did not dare to take off her grip from the balcony railing.

Leo, conscious of it, took Syera's phone from her pocket and saw the caller's name.

"Ck! Huh...!"

Leo showed the phone screen to Syera.

Brother Fandy?

"Do I have to answer his call for you? You must be glad he called you at a time like this, right? But don't expect you'll talk to him now."

Nah!

It's ruined!

A phone that had only been purchased for a few months was destroyed because Leo slammed it firmly on the floor. Leo's neck grew tense as he recalled what he had told Fandy before. Although not overtly, Leo has allowed Fandy to be with Syera and bring them closer.

Syera shuddered in horror as Leo approached again and increasingly locked his movements.

"Let's talk," Leo asked as he stroked her tense neck. "Do you like me or not? Why is answering that question so hard for you?" shouted Leo.

"I-yes," the voice of Syera trembled as she said it. "I like it" replied Shera. Fear and nervousness mixed in the sense of Sera.

"Say it clearly!"

"I-I like it, I like Leo's brother."

Sera's cry broke after saying it. The tightness in his chest diminished after admitting it.

"Foolish girl" said Leo in tears when he heard Syera's confession while Syera did not dare to look at Leo again.

"Since when?" ask Leo further in a soft tone.

Leo stretched out his hands to wipe away the tears of Shera.

"Say when you feel it. What after you found out that I'm not your brother?"

Syera shook her head. He lowered his head but Leo lifted him back up and held Syera's face to look at him.

"Then since when, hem?"

"I don't know but I was very worried when Leo's brother came to the restaurant with a pale and sick face. I'm happy when Leo's brother worries about me, I'm happy with Leo's attention. Looking at Leo's brother's face while sleeping has made me happy and...,"

Syera was silent, she did not dare to continue her sentence. All this time Syera has covered her feelings well. He knew as he continued his words that he was as crazy as Leo.

"And what?" urge Leo to continue his sentence but Syera just shut up and shook her head again.

Leo bit his teeth, glared at Syera to talk but did not make Syera talk. However, Syera, who could not look down because her face was being held by Leo, poked her lips and bit her lower lip.

Seeing Syera do that made Leo want to laugh but he put up with it.

"And what happened at the pool, is that what you were going to say?" leo asked and Syera answered with a nod of her head.

"Don't lie to me" Leo said softly. "That was before you knew I wasn't your big brother, did you realize?" raising both of his eyebrows looked at both of Syera's eyes and found no lies there.

Syera nodded her head again followed by flowing tears.

"I think it's just me. Turns out you're just as crazy as I am the difference is you're good at covering it up."

Leo smiled his smile not believing what Syera had covered so well from him.

"You're as crazy as I am, you're hiding behind your innocence. You stupid girl!"

Leo drew his face closer and cupped both cheeks of Syera.

Emp...!

..........

See you tomorrow😁🤭
