Alex is very nervous. He went through his business meeting with an erratic mind. Denis' familiar and friendly shadow with a man at the airport continued to dance in his memory.
Alex jealous. She's pissed. Now everything's falling apart. In the schedule he should have been two days in Singapore, but just arrived his feelings can not be controlled.
Thankfully, he still maintained his professionalism. Taking a deep breath, Alex tried to hold back his emotions. He monologues with himself, assuring that Denis loves only himself. Not anyone else.
Two days Alex could refrain from wanting to go home and see Denis. And when he gets home, his main goal is to see Denis. He asked the driver who picked him up to drive him to Denis' house. And with the heart he told his beautiful secretary to go home in a taxi.
The beautiful girl who had been very confident because she was invited to go with Alex was immediately blown away. He thought he'd get Alex's attention after their business trip. Turns out he was wrong. Alex didn't take it at all. Even Alex almost never looked at himself other than for work.
Entering the quiet residence of Rania, Alex steps straight into Denis's room. The door of his room was slightly open and there was a laugh coming out of it. That's not Denis' voice.
Alex slowed his pace as he approached the doorway. His breathing was choked when he saw two different types of people on the bed.
Alex knocked on the door twice, making the two people who were cool talking turn their heads towards him. Unasked, Alex enters Denis' room with eyes attached to the girl's face.
Denis, who was sitting cross-legged on his bed, looked at Alex calmly. While Davin who was leaning on the headboard scrunched his eyes. He recognizes Alex as the guy he met two days ago at the airport. At that time the guy seemed very angry with Denis.
"Can we talk?" Alex's gaze was sharp and deep through Denis's eyes.
"By the way." Sahut Denis indifferent.
"Two." Said Alex.
His eyes glanced sharply at Davin. Seeing the situation Davin smiled. It seemed like he could guess who that man was.
He remembered the conversation at the dinner table this morning.
"Is Alex not home yet?" Ask Rania to Denis.
"Not yet." As usual, Denis will answer briefly.
"He didn't tell you when to come home?"
"No."
"lex? Who's Alex?" Davin asked while sharing his gaze with Denis and his mother.
"Your sister-in-law's candidate." Andres answered.
"Wow! A sister-in-law?" Davin exclaimed in amazement.
Denis only glanced at his stepfather who was displaying a seductive smile.
"I want to meet him." Davin looked very enthusiastic.
"The day you came, he left for Singapore." Rania rolled her eyes at Denis.
"dither. So the one who met in the airport, he.."
"You met at the airport?"
"Yes. Tall, handsome, cool guy, and he's very jealous.." Davin chuckled at the end of his sentence. Still reflected in the sharp gaze of the man who met at the airport as he looked at himself. Now he just understands.
"What the hell are you." Denis slapped Davin's hair into disarray. Davin moved his head while still laughing.
"It's just that he looks really bad to see me with Denis, Ma. Mama should have seen his eyes almost pop out, look, I'm hugging Denis."
Rania laughed at her son's words.
"He's a dead love to your brother. Your brother's a big sell-off with Alex, but he's also in love."
"Mama.." Denis looked at his mother, begging her not to continue.
A happy laugh was heard that morning at the dinner table.
Now that man is here. Davin squinted his eyes at the man who very clearly showed his dislike of seeing Davin in Denis' room.
Hm! Doesn't it matter if he's playing around here a little?
"If you want to talk, by the way." Davin grabbed Denis' shoulder. Close Denis' body to his. "Gue has every right to hear what you want to say to him." Davin deliberately put his cheek on Denis's cheek.
Denis is a little buyak see Davin's treatment to himself. Wanting to feel he pushed Davin's body strong, but instead his sister tightened her embrace. And dramatically, Davin grabbed Denis' fingers and lifted them up for a deep sniff.
Seeing what Davin was doing, Alex's face flushed red. He glanced at her face, but the next second he pulled Davin's shirt and threw a punch at Davin's face.
Davin slammed with a groan of pain to get a punch full of anger from Alex. Denis squealed in shock at what Alex was doing.
"Davin!!" Denis examined Davin's face which appeared to be flushed due to a blow from Alex. He then looked at Alex furiously.
"Lo why? What are you doing with my sister??"
"A.sister?" Alex was in disbelief.
"Yes! He's my brother. Wh why? Do you have a problem with her?" Denis pushed Alex's chest violently. His eyes glinted furiously at the man. While Davin, he grimaced while massaging his jaw that felt hot due to the impact of Alex's fist.
"Him? Your sister?" Alex still doesn't believe it. His eyes widened as he looked at Davin. Then his eyes blinked as he looked at Denis.
*****
Davin groaned a little when Denis compressed his jaw that was hit by Alex's fist.
"Lo be quiet."
"It hurts."
Alex just stood crossed hands in his chest watching the two men.
"Lo don't apologize to my sister?" Denis stared at Alex.
"He who deliberately lured me to anger." Sahut Alex flat.
"What's? I'm not doing anything?" Davin with his innocent pretentious face.
"You hugged Denis on purpose, kissed Denis, what's up?"
"But you shouldn't have taken a hand right away." Denis menukas's.
"I didn't know he was your sister."
"You should think, I've never made it like any guy."
"Yes. Excuse me. I'm so angry to see you hugged another guy." Alex lowered his voice. He then walked over to Denis and sat down next to him.
"Now do you know that you're messing around with other guys?" His scales are near Denis's ears.
"Hey! You threaten me? He's my brother, not another guy! Then how are you going to go both beautiful girls?"
"Gorgeous girl? Wh who? To me that pretty girl is just you, baby."
Yuck!!
Davin acted as if he was vomiting. Complete with his bent body and his hand holding the stomach.
Denis's face flushed. His hand shook his sister's head with a lump.
Alex is not concerned about Davin's behavior.
"You knew? He even got home in a taxi. I'm not interested in women like that at all. I like it just as much as you."
"Stop! I feel good for a long time here. I'm going to go. Both of you, please do not want to gelud even." Davin raised both hands and moved out of Denis' room. Not forgetting he closed the door behind him after earlier waving his hand towards the two people he left behind.
"OKAY. So you're jealous seeing me as my secretary?"
"Gue. Not jealous." Denis put his face down. Alex pulls the girl's chin, so Denis turns to her. He brought his face to Denis's.
"But I like to see you jealous." His whisper with a smile on his lips. His thumb rubbed Denis' lips gently. "You knew? I'm almost crazy to think of you with another guy."
*****
"So, you've already met?"
Alex doesn't come home until it's dinner time. All Denis's family had gathered at the dinner table.
Rania looked at Alex and Davin alternately. Her seyum implied happiness from being able to eat with her two daughters sons. Plus there is Alex there, who he hopes will soon become a member of his family after marrying Denis later.
"Unforgotten introductions, Ma." Davin replied with a slight snide glance at Alex.
Alex dehem slowly.
"sorry. There was a little misunderstanding." Said Alex. "I didn't know that Davin was Denis' sister."
"Yes. Davin just got back from Singapore. Denis and Davin have only met after a long time. It's only natural that you've just met her." Rania smiled.
"Yes. And...Emm..Since everyone is gathered here, I want to..Err..I mean.."
"Lo what the hell is he talking about? Pegel I'm horrifying him.." Davin interrupted in annoyance.
"Davin's.." Rania looked softly at her son's face, gesturing for silence and listening to what Alex was going to say.
Alex took a deep breath. Exhales slowly. Then try to re-create the word.
"Auntie, um.." There's a pause. "Tonight, I'd like to propose to Denis to be my wife."
Uhuk!
Denis coughed. Nervously he picked up the glass in front of him and gulped down the contents quickly.
Momentary silence. Everyone looked at each other with a look, I don't know. Maybe surprised, or maybe happy..
"Sorry." Alex held back the chest pounding seeing everyone's reaction to his statement just now. His face was slightly pale and under the table, his hands were interlocked. Waiting for the first response from one of them.
"Why apologize?" Rania held back her smile.
"Maybe this is a little surprising aunt and om. But I don't want to put it off anymore. I mean it with my intention to marry Denis. Two days I was away from him, made me strengthen my heart to immediately question the daughter of om and aunt." Now his face looked up showing his strong determination. He can control himself.
Denis was silent with his face changing color. Alex has repeatedly expressed his desire, but tonight it feels very different.
"We're so happy to hear your good intentions. Of course we appreciate it. But of course, the decision is in Denis' hands. Isn't that right, baby?" Andres who answered ended with a question for his wife. Rania nodded.
"There is nothing happier than hearing your words, Alex. Aunt is very happy. But, we have to ask Denis' opinion." Rania turned her gaze to Denis. "How dear? What answer?"
Denis is still silent.
Under the table, Davin kicked his brother's leg with a jail.
"Jawab dong." He whispered with a voice that was heard by everyone.
Denis swallowed his saliva with great difficulty.
"Dennis." Her mother called softly.
Alex looked at Denis expectantly. Hope the girl gives the answer according to what she wants. Not a rejection like he used to give. Alex waits. And he will always wait patiently, until beautiful words come out of Denis' beautiful lips.
