So In Love
EP. 27. Marrying

********

Shien was suddenly like a dazed person. Her face was hot, but her fingertips were cold. Likewise with his heart beating irregularly. In fact, it had been almost five minutes Sky car passed from before him. But Shien was still unmoved, standing before the gate of his house with a blank look as well as mixed feelings. Ahh, Heaven really had already messed up his defense in an instant.

“Shi. . .” Summon the Sky broke Shien's daydream which during the return journey kept silent, immersed in his own thoughts.

Without Shien noticing, suddenly Sky's car had stopped in front of the gate of his house.

“Ehh, have arrived, yes?” Shien wavered, then in a hurry he opened the seatbelt that crossed from his shoulder to his waist, then prepared to open the car door to get down.

“Shien. . .” The sky again called out the girl's name as it seemed to rush down from her car. Shien reflexively turned to her with a faint look, but looked questionable.

The sky smiled, then stretched out both of his hands, hoping Shien would welcome him. And subconsciously, Shien received that helping hand. The sky was happy not to play and immediately grasped the girl's hand tightly.

“Please remember carefully what I said earlier.” The gaze of Sky's eyes was very shady, making Shien's heart instantly calm.

“Don't ever think of rejecting me again.” The sky was a little begging, but his tone sounded full of warning. He took a breath for a moment and then continued his sentence. “Because I didn't wait for you for a rejection.”

And again, Shien only silenced to hear that resolute Sky remark. Like before, when they were still on the side of the road a few hours ago.

Shien could not think well at the moment. The sky had already messed up his defense, but Shien had also not been able to clearly reply to the man's declaration of love.

Shien needed time to convince himself, looking for the exact answer to what made him worthy of being with Heaven. The almost perfect kind-hearted man.

And also. . , Shanna. How would Shien have to face his twin brother if he received Sky's love? Shanna would probably be sad, and Shien would feel much worse afterwards.

Ahh, I don't know. Thinking about it made Shien's backside head throb painfully, like it was about to rupture. Suddenly a sound filled his head.

“I’ll be waiting. Come to me when you’re ready.” And between the grunts, the soft voice of Heaven was heard again.

“And don’t hesitate to reach me, when you’re ready, okay?” Imbuh Langit while kissing the backs of the hands Shien is holding.

Although Shien did not answer, but in his brain he was still struggling with his mind to respond to Heaven's request or not.

However, his hand that was again without being ruled even immediately returned the grasp of Heaven's hand tighter.

“One more. I won't ask you to fire the boy. But, you can't get too close to him, can't talk to him more than three words, can't see him for more than three seconds, can't. . .”

“I know.” Sambar Shien, cut off the Sky greeting that was giving him the warning possessively. Believe me, Shien said this was also beyond his awareness.

Why is it always like this? While with Sky, why had Shien always been unable to control himself? It's always like this.

“Good girl.” Both of Shien's eyes that were originally looking at meu instantly blinked. Once again, Shien felt his heart like it was about to jump out of place as Sky gave one a kiss as well as a gentle elution at the top of his head before he got off the car.

After which, Shien stood sculpting in front of the gate of the house with eyes that kept watching the Sky car that started to accelerate until it completely disappeared from his sight.

“Home home, Shi?” Shien was stunned as soon as he heard the voice of someone he knew very well. Shannas.

The colorful haired girl was seen walking side by side with Reno carrying a white crackle bag in her hand.

“Yeah, Ma'am. Where are you going? I'm with Aunt Fina nyariin, maen ngilang aja. Where your phone died again.” Reno nagged as soon as they managed to get close to Shien. How not? On his first day at work, Reno was dizzy and worried that his employer had suddenly disappeared without any news. The man was frustrated looking for Shien around the cafe.

It only came to her mind if Shien was kidnapped, but Fina instead shook her head and said stupidly. As a result, he chooses to check Shien into the house, but still does not find it. And at the end of Reno even got scolded from Papa Sendy.

“Iya, Shi. Where are you abis from? Nih, got to spray Papa for going home alone.” Connect Shanna while ruffling Reno's hair like a puppy.

Treated like that, Reno instantly scowled. His expression was so funny that it made Shien smile amused even though it was not too obvious.

“Sorry.” Sahut Shien with his innocent face while trailing Shanna's steps to enter after the gate opened.

“Lo from where?” Sergeh Reno was upset that Shien did not heed his question.

“Tadi. . .” Shien momentarily gasped for an excuse. His eyes seemed to be moving agitatedly. “There are important items left behind in the office. Eat rush to take a taxi to get back there.” Whether the reason made sense or not, that was all that came to Shien's mind. Hope Reno believes it and doesn't mind it anymore.

“Keep, abis it a short walk in the park.” Get Shien to be more convincing.

“Should have waited for me, Ma'am.” Reno continues to protest. He still does not accept himself to be exposed to scolding, even though he is innocent.

“Sorry, I forgot I had a driver.” Shien's pretext then while scratching his non-itchy nape. Reno just snorted with her mouth muttering out her grunt.

“But next time your phone is not to die, Shi.” Shanna who was also worried reprimanded him. Shien just nodded.

“Where are you from?” Shien asked to switch the conversation. His eyes highlighted the crackle pouch in Reno's hands.

“Buy chicken noodles around. Traktir nih bocil let not asem keep his face.” Shanna pulled on Reno's right cheek in a fit of anxiety that made the man complain of pain.

With their easy-going personalities, Shanna and Reno quickly get along even though they just met. The existence of Reno makes Shanna like having a new toy.

“Gue is not a leak, Mbak.” Reno snorted inadmissively as she rubbed her hot cheeks. But Shanna just stuck her tongue out.

“Eat together, yuk, Shi, in gazebo. I intentionally bought more, nih.” Take Shanna while raising her chin towards the gazebo.

Without much thought, Shien immediately agreed to Shanna's invitation. After all, his stomach was also hungry because he had just rejected Heaven's invitation to stop by dinner at one of the restaurants they passed while on the way home.

********

“Thank you uncle.” Said the five-year-old boy in the typical voice of his little boy, Biel. A cheerful gush was clearly visible in both eyes as soon as it received the pack containing ice cream and candy bear that the boy had previously ordered while Sky was still on his way home after dropping off Shien.

Counted three days Sky always went home to his parents because he had to help Papa take care of his little nephew who was deliberately entrusted by his brother, Dusk, Dusk, because the woman is still in the hospital post-delivery via caesarean section.

“Eat one time. The rest is in the fridge. Continue, abis eat toothbrush, wash face with feet, then sleep.” The sky counseled as he ruffled Biel's hair until the curly hair of his neck fell before his eyes.

“Two.” The little boy's pinta seemed to be heartening as he raised two fingers of his hand. His little head looked up, looking up at the sky that was still standing towering before him by putting up puppy eyes, a small child seduction style that usually became the weakness of everyone who saw it.

But not with the sky. Strictly the man shook his head. “One or no meal at all.” The sky did not want to be denied while reclaiming the package from the tiny hands of Biel.

Biel can only look down with two globular eyes and funny pursed lips. But soon after, Biel turned his head towards the grandfather who was sitting on the sofa while engrossed in coffee.

“Kakek. . .” Whinek Biel. The pair of glassy angel eyes were adorable, making the grandfather unable to not let go of his first grandchild.

“Udah, justin, Lang. Instead of Biel crying, you are also bothered later.” Papa said, making plain and clear eyes that were originally pooled was immediately sparkling happily.

The sky snorted violently, then looked at Biel who was now smiling grinning towards him as if he was in the wind. “Stay cannot.” Sahut Langit handed Biel a piece of ice cream cone, then passed from the presence of Papa and his nephew to the kitchen.

Biel again scowled, stomped his feet on the floor in annoyance, then shouted. “Uncle peliiiiiit, pantesan no sell-label.”

But, the Sky only spread his shoulders unconcernedly while continuing to move his legs. Instead of heaven, he just runs the message of his brother who said to limit sweet foods that have high sugar and calories to Biel.

After a while, the sky came out of the bathroom with a much fresher body. The man appeared relaxed in his checkered motif pajamas.

While drying his hair using a small towel, Sky walked over to Biel who was sleeping on his bed. The little boy looked very calm and adorable, completely different when he woke up. Really chatty and shitty.

During his stay at home, Biel did prefer to sleep in the Sky room. It made the Sky slightly complain because Biel could not stay still while sleeping. His hands and feet were always moving everywhere, sometimes accidentally hitting the face of Heaven. Obviously the sky was very disturbed by that.

Leaning his back on the headbord of the bed, Sky reached out his hand to grab the phone he had placed on the nightstand, then began to send a message to Shien, the idol.

Sky :

Why else?

The sky widened upon seeing the two check marks suddenly blue, shortly after the message was sent. That meant, Shien read it straight away. This is totally out of Shien's way. Usually Sky would have to wait for hours or tomorrow for Shien to read his message.

Shienka :

Go to sleep.

Wh why?

Sky :

I'm disturbing, aren't I?

Shienka :

Very disturbing.

The sky snorted with Shien's reply. The girl was completely blind romantically. Can't Shien be sweet or spoiled even if it's just pretend? Ck, that's so annoying.

Sky :

I just want it, your lips still hurt, don't you?

Shienka :

Maybe it was rabies.

“Hiish, this girl. Think I'm a dog or what?” The sky grumbled with a soft voice so as not to disturb Biel who was sleeping.

However, a moment later a hint of regret crept in the Sky's mind. Angry he was at Shien, should not Heaven be rude to the girl he loved. Sky promised, in the future he would try to hold back well and treat Shien as gently as possible.

Sky :

Yes already. I just want ingetin, don't forget the ointment I gave you.

Continue, do not forget also your neck is made of plaster. ✌

A few minutes waiting, no more messages from Shien. The sky then sent a message saying good night and asked the girl to dream it up, then put her phone back on the nightstand after she set the alarm.

After that, the Sky also spread itself while hugging Biel's small body. Sometimes he gently patted her thighs as the boy kicked the blanket to calm her down.

The sky sighed softly, a faint smile rising from both corners of his lips. His mind was again filled with the shadows of Shien whose Sky was convinced that now the girl had started to melt.

And Sky was also certain, this time Shien would not attempt to reject him again. He just needs to be patient, wait for the girl to be ready and be honest about her own feelings.

Suddenly the sound of the door rattling his reverie. The sky did not need to turn its head to know who was entering and walked closer towards him. The sky was still shaking in position, even when Papa was already sitting on the edge of the bed, right next to him.

“Gemesin.” Ignoring Papa, the Sky even kissed Biel's puffed cheeks with anxiety, occasionally pinching him small. Ahh, the sky really likes children. They were number two in his heart after Shien.

“Sky, quickly you marry there.” Tapping Papa made Sky instantly turn around and turn his attention to the middle-aged man.

His mouth was open, not believing Papa's words were more like telling him to buy ice cream for Biel. Very easily.

“Quick find a good girl and get married there!” Said Papa once again, his gaze slightly dimmed as he gave a smile, barely holding back a laugh.

Intentions want to see and make sure his grandson is asleep or not, he was even treated to an adorable scene of the interaction of the bachelor and grandson.

“Birth first also can.” And the silly attitude of Heaven seems to have spread to Papa, to make his son even more wide-eyed.

Or maybe Papa is frustrated to see the sky that continues to be single, while the children of his friends who are the same age as the average Sky are married and have children.

“Not your son is funny. How's your own son, huh, right?” Connect Papa then while smiling indistinctly.

The sky snorted in amusement at all Papa's utterances. “Papa aja fast marry there, keep loving me cute sister.”

And not the sky his name if he's not squeamish. His words made Papa flabbergasted. “This rancid boy, even sneered at parents.” The old man then landed a hard punch on the thigh of the child to make him grimace restrained, still keeping his tone so as not to wake Biel.

“Lagian, Papa told me to marry already I told you to buy onions to stall.” Snorting the sky while rubbing his thighs that felt hot. Are really. Although it is old, but Papa's energy is still very strong.

“Papa Means. You are, right, old enough. It's also suitable to have children.” Papa sighed for a moment. “Don't be too casual and playful keep going, flattering Shien if you like.”

The sky that initially looked at Papa seriously then blinked. Wait for. Papa mentioned whose name was that? The shien?

The sky nodded with question. How did Papa know? As he recalled, he had never discussed or told anyone about Shien. Wahh, it looks like Papa could become a psychic if one day he went bankrupt. Such was the thought of the ridiculous Sky.

“Tuh face do not have to gawk like that.” Papa Cibir.

“That's a great look, Lang. Dinner time at Om Sendy's house, your eyes are almost out of place as it glares at Shien continues.” Papa explained, recalling the different-looking attitude of Sky in front of Shien during a dinner at his best friend's house some time ago.

“Ck, you think Papa doesn't know? Papa also see what you do when you want to go home.” Papa thunches. While the sky is wrong. Papa see which one? When she clasped Shien's hand or kissed him?

“Cium-kissing kids indiscriminate. If caught Om Sendy, can get hit you.” And not for two seconds, Heaven felt his face heat up, maybe now it was reddened.

How could Papa look at it and be so mediocre back then? Ahh, what a shame.

“Kiss, don't ngehamilin too.” Reply to the Sky in a squeaking voice, then throw his gaze in any direction.

“Ehh, speaking carelessly.” Then Papa beat the shoulder arm of Heaven using a dinosaur doll owned by Biel with anxiety. The misbehavior of this child, regardless of who. Really make it grumpy.

“Pa, Biel will wake up.” The Sky Protest while holding the puppet that Papa was holding onto to stop beating him. The middle-aged man only snorted accompanied by a whopping mouth.

“Why? Didn't Papa say you could give birth first?” Ledek Sky, making Papa growled and anxious at once.

“Yes not so the concept.” Once again, Papa hit the Sky using a puppet. “Papa was joking. Can't you tell me where to be serious?” Shouted Papa annoyed. Her voice that rose an octave higher, made Biel distracted and whine in her sleep.

Then, the Sky hurriedly calmed him down by patting his thigh like before. “Papa, anyway. . .” The Sky protest was slow, his face scowled, his eyes full of protest staring at Papa. But, the middle-aged man just glared no matter what.

“So how?” The sky turned back to Papa a moment after Biel calmed down. Papa raised his eyebrows inexplicably. “You, no, I made you a grandson first?” Papa growled with annoyance because the Sky was still teasing him. If you don't remember his grandson sleeping, Papa is sure, he will shout at the sky while carrying a tennis ball bat.
