Standard Effect's
What's Up With Today?

Draga stared at the girl's cold face, when he heard the scream of her voice that was quite deafening to his ears.

"You're making people misunderstand me."

Draga was upset, to calm his emotions he opened the bottle of mineral water and gulped it down.

"I'm sorry, after all, it's my brother who accuses me of no-no."

The girl bowed in shame and silence a thousand languages until Draga finally took his drink and moved from her seat.

"I'll get you to your destination."

Draga got up from his seat and walked out of the Minimarket to his car, followed by the girl who walked slowly, because her legs began to hurt.

Inside the car the silent atmosphere enveloping the two of them made the girl awkward.

"My name is Dhan, can I know your name?"

With a sweet smile Dhan introduced himself and also asked Draga's name.

"Am I fit to be your sister? you said you were almost 30 years old."

The girl glared at Draga, she did not accept her age to be 30.

"I've been polite to you because you've helped me, but just so you know the age issue is very sensitive."

Draga was still focused on driving and ignored Dhan, until they arrived at the hotel lobby.

"My name is Draga, I hope we don't see each other again, because I'm worried that I don't know what else you're gonna spill on me."

After saying those irritating words Draga stepped on the gas and left Dhan standing rigidly in the hotel lobby.

"Basic Strange Man."

Dhandeli entered the hotel still wearing a jacket and sunglasses.

"Miss."

A handsome and dashing man approached him and followed Dhandeli to the hotel room.

"I told you I wouldn't run far and leave this town, why do you still make me uncomfortable? just make people emotional."

The handsome and dashing man was Arthem, Dhandeli's bodyguard.

"But the people who are chasing you today are not my men."

Arthem's face was so seriously staring at Dhandeli.

"What's? so these guys were after me really want to harm me? Well I'm going crazy"

Dhandeli sat on the sofa leaning against his body.

"Miss you hurt?"

Arthem looked at Dhandeli's leg which was covered in wound plaster.

"Arthem, we're not home, so please don't be too formal, I'm your friend too right? or you want me to call you brother.."

"Well, as you wish..Who does the jacket and hat belong to?"

Dhandeli smiled and took a sip of his warm chocolate before answering Arthem's question.

"Have a cold, annoying yet kind man."

Arthem shook his head in confusion and could not describe the person that Nonanya meant.

"Oh yeah Art, did you send an email reply about my request to work at the Engineering company? because I've had an interview call and I'm welcome."

"Emm, looks like it's been..."

Arthem acted a little as if he was hesitating and thinking, making the atmosphere so tense and Dhandeli made him very curious.

"Come on, don't play me, I really want to live independently, and want to know what it's like to work and also without anyone knowing my status."

"Your father agreed, he didn't forbid you just that I had to keep an eye on you so that today's events don't happen again."

"Yeah!!! it's nice! than in a cage."

"Then next week what will you look like? if you look like this once, look, people already know you're the son of an Asian conglomerate."

"I'll be in tomboyish style, what do you think Art is?"

"Good too, so as not to be easily oppressed."

Arthem agrees with Dhandeli's plan and fully supports him.

"So let's celebrate at the reception I'm working at a new company."

Dhandeli and Arthem also celebrate by buying a lot of food and drinks.

***

Draga arrived at his house, parked his car in the yard and entered in a hurry. When opening the door of the house the first time he went to was the bathroom, he impatiently opened his shirt and all his clothes and then cleaned himself under the shower .

Draga took a long bath, after bathing she wrapped her clothes and threw them into the front trash can of the house.

When all was done Draga laid his body in bed, when the new time showed at 8:35 but somehow he felt very tired. When he was about to close his eyes, his house bell rang making him sigh long went from his bed to the door of his house.

"What's wrong?"

Draga asked in a lazy tone.

"There's a problem."

The woman replied casually while barging into the Draga house.

"Yara, if you still can't move on from your ex, you better find another one."

The girl is Yara Sein her cousin's sister who still can't let go of her lover who chose her job over her.

"You know, I was about to do a lot with some grown men to vent my anger but I couldn't."

"What do you mean?"

Draga took mineral water for Yara and sat in the single seat while looking at her cousin's mouthpiece.

"You know I'm a virgin to this day, I find it hard to get along freely with the good-looking guys out there."

Instantly Draga spouted mineral water that had just entered his throat.

"What's up with today? why do women declare virginity to me? am I such a pervert?"

Yara woke up from her lazy attitude and looked at Draga seriously.

"What?! did I not hear wrong? any women approaching you? Well, you better slap me."

"I didn't intentionally help her, don't think things through."

Draga explained flatly.

"I thought you weren't normal."

"What's? I'm normal."

"I'm sure you've never dated at all, or maybe you've never, oh my God, I'd have to save my girlfriend if I didn't want to be taken by you."

"What did you say?! you think I'm a faggot? you're nuts!"

Yara just laughed out loud in response to Draga's anger and it caught Draga off guard and then left.

"I'm tired, I'm going to sleep, as usual clean up the room if you come home tomorrow, and don't forget to tell Aunt Sein, I don't want her to lecture me."

"Who is my sweet brother...."

Yara is actually very cold and indifferent to everyone especially strangers, people who do not know her close will think Yara is a proud and haughty woman, she said, but with those closest to him he is very humorous and cheerful, unlike Draga, towards anyone he stays cool and keeps his distance.

In the room that he always occupied if visiting at the house Draga there is a photo of the man of his heart that he had been storing in the drawer of the room table.

When in trouble Yara always comes home to Draga just to stay and look at the photo she hid in the room drawer.

"I miss you so much and hate you too."
