SUGAR BROTHERS
STORY SIDE: MARVEL

Marvel opened the door to his house, intending to leave for his place of work. But seeing the existence of Milla who was drying clothes next to make Marvel's step stopped.

Marvel glanced at Milla's movements, confused Marvel must apologize to Milla and ask the truth or forget everything.

If Marvel asks that it might hurt Milla's self-esteem as a woman, but if Marvel doesn't ask she'll think more about it.

Marvel also felt unbearable on one side, but also felt angry. If Milla did it for Riko, why? Why would it have to be that?

Why Milla did not try another way, borrowing money from him would also give, if the goal is good.

Marvel is not a stingy person who will lend money to people in need with a large interest, Marvel will not ask for interest let alone ask for back the money if Milla does need it for Riko.

Marvel shook his head, slightly running towards his car before finally getting inside.

Marvel gripped the steering wheel tightly, again a set of tears fell from his eyes.

Riko looked at the confused Milla who was preparing the equipment, whether it was the equipment that Riko did not understand at all.

“Mama want what?” Riko said what she thought, really seeing Milla pacing back and forth made her dizzy.

Milla paused for a moment, smiling at her son. “Mama want to open a business dear, we will sell cookies.”

Riko furrowed his brows not understanding, but he kept silent watching Milla. Although occasionally offering help to his mother but instead avenged subtly repulsed, Milla actually told him to sit sweet.

Riko gets bored just watching. Riko looked at the house next door, the door of the house Marvel tightly closed, it looks like Marvel is not at home at the moment.

Riko wants Marvel to play with him, Marvel is his only friend. The only friend who wants to share toys with him, the other friend is very warm to him.

For some reason when he was with Marvel, Riko seemed to be with his father. Although Riko knows very well that Marvel is just a kind neighbor who wants to play with him, but still Marvel can make Riko seem to forget that his father has not come home for a long time.

Marvel makes Riko forget her sadness for Dad.

Riko's wish was granted by Marvel, Riko had always wanted to be bought a toy by her father and taken away on the way out. But it was Marvel who did that, Marvel bought him a car and took him to eat at a restaurant.

***

Marvel got off the bike, this time Marvel didn't use the car. Intentionally he left his car at his brother's house, he had not ridden the motorcycle for a long time.

Marvel took off his helmet and tidied his hair that was tight, while he was glazed in the rearview mirror Marvel glanced at Milla who was walking past him with so much plastic groceries.

“Om Maple!” riko exclaimed excitedly, Riko who had not seen Marvel since morning was happy because Marvel finally appeared in front of him.

“Exit article, Om.”

Marvel nodded his head in understanding, Marvel saw Milla who looked troubled by the plastic she was carrying.

Marvel quickly took over the plastic, leaving Milla in shock. “Eh no need to bother.”

“already..it's okay, let me do this as my regret for my treatment to you two days ago.” Marvel said with regret.

Milla just nodded awkwardly as she glanced at Riko, hopefully Riko did not ask a strange question because of her curiosity about the words two days ago from Marvel.

Riko walks ahead of Marvel and Milla, Riko suddenly wants to pee. Though Riko really wanted to invite Marvel to play with him, but the desire to urinate can not be unbearable so Riko set aside his desire, it can be done later.

Marvel saw Riko running into the house, when Riko was really no longer visible from his view, Marvel stopped stepping and turned to look at Milla who had been behind him.

“Pardon my attitude yesterday, I meddled too much in your affairs.” Marvel smiled awkwardly, “My attitude yesterday was also very disrespectful, I regret it.”

Milla shook her head, “Don't feel guilty like that, don't think about it.”

Marvel cleared his throat slowly, looking seriously at Milla right in her eyes. “If you need anything or anything else, feel free to tell me.” Marvel smiled until his eyes narrowed, “Let's just say we're friends who always help each other, don't force yourself again. Do not make Riko grow up with money that is not good origin.”

Milla fell silent, unable to simply reply to Marvel's words either through actions or words.

“Aren't you getting too far?”

Marvel frowned not understanding what Milla meant, “You mean?” Marvel spoke up the question that ran through his mind.

“Help me many times, give Riko a gift, isn't that too far? We are not close to each other, I don't even know you but just your name. Wouldn't it be weird if you kept helping me?”

Marvel shook his head, disagreeing with what Milla said, “Helping someone does not necessarily have to be in the land of the word know, <TAG1>, when we give a helping hand to a difficult person do we have to know who he is, his origin and everything about him? For me no.”

Milla sighed heavily, “But your kind attitude was making me depressed, I hate to admit that I am weak, I hate to admit that I am not a good mother to my child, I couldn't accept it, my heart was torn apart every time I realized that I was so pitiful.”

Marvel shook his head, disagreeing no more with Milla's words. “Do you put more importance on your ego and feelings than feelings and also the future of Riko, do not make Riko carry a heavy burden when he grows up. When he knows that you are like this, he will only feel bad and feel the source of the problem that makes you so.”

Milla again sighed heavily, for a moment she closed her eyes before finally looking back at Marvel, “Forget our conversation today, do not reveal the lead again.”

Milla steps into the house ahead of Marvel, Milla tries to look calm even though her heart is so raging.

Why, why should Marvel be this good to him and Riko? Milla does not want to misunderstand, Milla does not want herself to have more feelings for Marvel because of the kindness that Marvel gives.

Milla was afraid, she was afraid if she really fell in love with Marvel which is obviously only a new person that Milla does not recognize well, he said, Milla has a husband even though her husband is out of nowhere still Milla has to keep her feelings.
