Key froze when he heard Alex. There was a strange feeling that suddenly appeared in his heart. And that makes Key uncomfortable.
"Nana.." call Alex after a long time the two are silent to each other.
"Ehh.i-iya," Key replied.
"Huh. I think you're not there," said Alex as he breathed a sigh of relief when he heard the voice of his best friend.
"I'm still here, brother" replied Keyra. "Emm..So Alex said what?" tanya Key hesitated a bit. He wanted to ascertain whether his hearing was still normal or not.
"Which one?" alex is confused.
"That was the first time Alex spoke."
"Ohhh.. who did I say I was in love again?" Alex asked to be sure.
"Yes that one," replied Keyra. "Emm.Son Alex is really in love? Same who?" Keyra asked back accompanied by his chest which began to pound erratically.
"Gue wasn't entirely sure yet. But I'm in love again." Alex chuckled as he said that. It was funny to realize that he might have fallen in love with his adopted sister.
"Who's in love?" ask Keyra lirih. Honestly, he was very curious about the girl Alex liked.
"She's the new girl in my life. But somehow he has made my world quite chaotic" said Alex. "I used to deny him raw. But now look at him with other people, my heart doesn't feel welcome" Alex continued, imagining Keyra had wrapped her hands around Hiro's arms quite affectionately.
"Who is he brother?" key asked with trembling lips. Somehow his heart felt very sick when he found out that his adoptive brother was in love with the girl he had rejected.
"Lo doesn't know her Na. Because I've never told you about that girl the same, you" replied Alex.
"Then tell me about him now!" pinta Keyra's.
"Now it is not yet time for Na. And I promise you a story to elo, once I'm sure of my feelings for him."
"But I want to know now brother."
Alex chuckles. "Next time is beautiful" Alex persuaded.
And inevitably Key can only give up. He couldn't have forced Alex to tell a story. Although he himself was very curious about the girl who managed to make his adoptive brother fall in love.
Half an hour passed, their conversation was as if it was not as usual. And Alex realized that. When Alex asked, Key would answer. But Key's answer did not connect with the question he was asking.
"Udah malaem. We will continue tomorrow again on the phone. I think you are also sleepy," said Alex who thought maybe Nana was sleepy until their chat became out of line.
"Yes" Key answered briefly.
"Yes already. I went to sleep, Na. Have a nice dream for you" Alex said before turning off his phone call.
Keyra stared at the screen of the phone call that was over. Still can't believe the fact that Alex, his foster brother, is in love.
"Why does it feel like this sick? Why my heart?" muttered Keyra while holding his chest that felt tight as if squeezed by a large stone.
"I think I'm in love."
"She's the new girl in my life. But somehow he made my world pretty fucked up." Alex's words kept ringing in Keyra's head. "I used to deny him raw. But now look at him with someone else, my heart doesn't feel right."
"Who's the girl Alex refused? Why didn't Alex ever tell me about the girl? Is she so beautiful that she can melt Alex's heart that easily?" those questions continued to fill Keyra's head. To make himself unable to sleep because of curiosity as well as dislike that has since appeared in his heart.
Kenpa Keyra doesn't like to hear Alex fall in love. Keyra prefers to hear Alex has many lovers without involving feelings in them.
While on the other hand, Alex who also could not sleep chose to sit on the balcony of his room after having had time to make a cup of black coffee.
His eyes stared at the door of Keyra's room which was connected to the balcony. "Did you agree that mommy your soul mate is the same brother Hiro?"
Alex breathed a heavy breath. Lisa's mom's words last day really made her day even more chaotic even tonight.
"Because you don't want to marry Keyra. So mommy will try to find a good man that mommy can trust to take care of mommy's daughter later. And for now the good man of choice mommy falls in Hiro's hands."
"Mommy still has a spare man to match with Keyra. Jonathan Michael's. Nice guy with a smile. Mommy's sure Key will always be happy if he gets a partner like Mike." Lisa's mom's words really ransacked Alex's heart and mind.
"Why do you think this is?" Alex rubbed his face violently. He won't accept if Keyra has to be paired with Hiro or Mike. Although Alex himself knows if the two will definitely be happy and take good care of his adopted sister.

This morning Keyra and Alex's faces were both wrinkled. Both of them were unable to close their eyes. Even the two of them can only sleep when it is early morning.
"Today you can't pick up. Brother has a photo shoot. Later in the afternoon Daddy's driver will be picked up," Alex said shortly before they reached the Aditama residence.
"Yes" replied Key. Somehow she felt Alex's attitude towards her changed. Usually along the way his adoptive brother will invite him to chat about unimportant things. But not this morning.
Alex's car arrives at Aditama's residence along with Hiro's car, which just came out of the main gate.
"Sister Alex did not come down" said Alex glanced at the younger brother.
"Yes" Key replied before getting out of the car.
And without waiting for long Alex's car immediately left the Aditama residence.
"Kak Key why?" ask Ayura who just came out with Ello.
Keyra only smiled wryly while shaking her head.
"Son left first Yang," said Ello then got into the car after kissing each side of his wife's face. And don't forget the short kisses and short teases on their baby-to-be.
"Sister Keyra really isn't pa-pa?" ask Ayura to make sure.
Keyra took a long breath. "I want to tell Ra."
"May, but we go in first yuk!" Ayura put her hand on Keyra's arm and invited her friend into the house.
