She'S Mine
The Flavors That Still Exist

Alex still chooses to be quiet. He looked into Zea's eyes, trying his best to read the girl's heart.

Alex is trying to figure out what purpose Zea is asking herself to be her lover. Didn't Zea reject herself outright? Even Zea just left without giving a reason why she rejected Alex's feelings.

And today they just met after two more months of breaking off communication because Zea had deliberately blocked Alex's phone number. Then on the first day of meeting this, Zea unceremoniously asks Alex to be her lover. Isn't this something Alex suspects? Because Alex also will not want to hurt for the second time caused by the same girl.

Moreover, Nana's virtual best friend has taken pains to help her forget Zea. Yes, if Alex can be honest, it's still there for Zea. It's just that it might not be as big as it used to be.

"Lex, you want to be my girlfriend? I promise I won't be a guy as good as you are" Zea pleaded.

"Zee me........"

Drt.. Drt.. Drt..

The ringing sound of the phone rang out from the pocket of Alex's pants to make Alex shift focus to his flat object.

"Mommy," Alex muttered as he saw the caller's name on his phone screen. "Gue pick up the phone first," Alex permits and is nodding his head back by Zea.

Alex chose to stay away from Zea a bit in order to take a phone call from her mommy more comfortably. "Yes, mom. Why?" ask Alex as soon as the phone call is connected.

"Where are you?" mom Lisa asked back.

"Alex is still out there mom. There's still a need. Why why?" ask Alex wonder. Because mom Lisa is very rarely asked about her condition during the afternoon hours like now.

"Pake it again. Why haven't you picked up Key yet? What time is it?" ask mom Lisa in a tone of voice that sounds very upset.

"God. Sorry mom, Alex forgot to pick up Key," said Alex felt guilty. Especially when looking at the watch in his hand that has shown at six in the afternoon.

"Hurry and pick him up. Poor thing, mommy is worried that she doesn't care about us" mom Lisa ordered. And inevitably Alex must obey the mother's request.

"Huft.. just a day so brother has forgotten the responsibility to take care of adek," muttered Alex rutukti himself.

How could Alex forget to pick up Keyra. Though this morning he had managed to become a big brother who looked very concerned with his sister. But now Alex seems to forget that his responsibility to Keyra is not just this morning. But it's still long until the next. Until Keyra finds a man who can look after her very well.

"Zee, sorry I have to go back first" said Alex as he took his backpack on the chair.

"But we're not done talking to Lex." Zea stood up, she held Alex's arm as the man was about to leave their table after laying down some money to pay for the bailout and a little tip for the maid.

"Sorry Zee but I'm in a hurry" said Alex, releasing Zea's hand on his arm. And without saying anything more, Alex rushed straight to the exit.

"Lex.." call Zea, but Alex doesn't make the call at all.

In Alex's mind at this time only focused on Key. Alex is worried that Key is upset with him because he is late to pick her up.

It was getting dark once Alex arrived at the Aditama residence. And as usual he went straight into the house without permission after earlier had greeted Pak Sapto security guard in this house.

"The afternoon of the Pi mall." Alex approached Papi Genta who was currently watching television in the living room. Don't forget he kissed the back of Papi Genta's hand like he used to do when he remembered.

"You want to get Keyra?" ask Papi Genta.

"Yes Pi. Where is he?" Alex asked with a clingak-clinguk head looking for the figure of his new sister.

"He's in the back gazebo. Talk to each other again," replied Papi Genta.

"Yes is Pi. Alex went to the back first," said Alex and immediately rushed towards the backyard of the Aditama residence.

From a distance, Alex could hear the familiar laughter of some people he knew. And sure enough, Keyra, Ayura and Ello were laughing because of the joke that Hiro was making.

"Ehem...." Alex cleared his throat to tell the four people there about his whereabouts. But unfortunately, too cool to hear jokes from Hiro to make the four people there did not hear Deheman Alex. And that certainly upset Alex.

Moreover, seeing the laughter of Keyra who was the first time he saw. Alex is a failure to be a sister. Because since the death of Mr. Santoso Keyra's father, Alex only saw Key who often daydream and cry, without any laughter.

"It's late in the afternoon, let's go home" Alex said, making the four people there look at him.

"Elo has come. Where are you new here? Your feeling was already home first," said Hiro staring in wonder at Alex.

"There was a need" Alex replied. "Let's go home" Aldx again.

"Sister Keyra will eat malem here brother. So the return will be after the tomb of malem," said Ayura who is currently still staring at Alex.

"But mommy told us to go home now" Alex said. He doesn't want Keyra here much longer. Or rather do not want Keyra closer to Hiro. I don't know why it doesn't feel so willing. Though here he and Key have no relationship at all except just brother and foster sister.

Maybe Alex feels rivaled, because all this time he knows very well if Hiro is a dream big brother for everyone. And Alex doesn't like Key who looks to admire Hiro. Alex just wants Key to be amazed at him as the perfect foster brother. Not even amazed by someone else's sister.

"Gue called Lisa's mom. And Lisa's mom doesn't care if Key comes home after dinner," Ello said, explaining that she had already asked Lisa for permission.

"But just now mommy called to pick up Key," said Alex who was still keukeuh want to take Key home right now.

"Ckk.. don't really believe it lo ngab," said Ello upset. "If you don't believe you're just Lisa's mom, don't believe me" Ello said.

So inevitably Alex also contact Lisa's mom. And damn everything Ello said was true. Ello has contacted Lisa's mom and asked for permission so that Key can go home after dinner together at the Aditama residence and Lisa's mom has also allowed.

'Damn...' inner Alex is upset.
