SUGAR BROTHERS

SUGAR BROTHERS
STORYLINE: MARVEL XII


Marvel doesn't let Juan go to the Gevan family alone, Marvel insists on coming along. With the reason Marvel wanted to explain itself to the Gevan family.


Marvel also wants to apologize that he could not fulfill Gevan's last request, Marvel can not really keep the family that Gevan left behind. Although he pity but if you think it is not his responsibility, Marvel does not want to put himself as someone who pretends to be a hero again.


But upon arrival there Marvel and Juan were greeted by an unpleasant sight, where Juan and Marvel saw how a woman and her child were treated arbitrarily by neighbors around.


Although not so clear, but both Juan and Marvel can hear what they are fussing about.


“Not dodged! obviously my son told me that Riko hit him!”


Marvel sees the mother wearing the negligee angry at the woman who Marvel believes is Gevan's wife.


“My son is not that kind of person Ma'am, Riko can't possibly hit anyone else for no reason. Riko never even fought back or ignored my words, so it felt impossible if Riko hurt Mom's child.”


“So that means my son hit himself so?!” The mother who felt that her son had been hit by Gevan's son was getting angry.


“Bu-not so I mean Mom, maybe it's just a misunderstanding—”


“Riko hit me Auntie! Riko beat me to the ground! You don't have a father, dare to dare hit me!!”


“Tuh hear what my son said, Riko who has hit my son!!”


Marvel noticed Gevan's wife was silent, he let out a heavy sigh before finally apologizing to Mother and the little boy on behalf of his son.


Gevan's son, Riko. She cried and told her mother that she was innocent.


After the mother and son left, Marvel and Juan still did not get out of their car. Still watching Gevan's wife and son Gevan who was still crying said that he was not guilty at all.


Marvel noticed how the woman kneeling aligned her height with her son.


“Liko benal benal did not hit him Ma.” The boy still cried, His mother gently wiped the tears that flowed down his cheeks.


The boy nodded his head quickly, “Iya.. He said Papa left Liko and Mama when Liko was naughty. Liko is not naughty, she is naughty.”


“Iya, Riko is not naughty. Riko's good son Mama's. Then why would he get hurt, baby?”


The boy named Riko came back a hiccup, “He said Liko will not have Papa again, Papa Liko will not go home for long, Liko instead.. Liko wants to have Papa. Liko let her down, but Liko didn't hit her.”


Marvel was silent, he felt as if there was a war in himself. Marvel blocks Juan from getting out of the car.


“Why? we must immediately inform his wife and child, Gevan's corpse must be buried.”


Marvel was still silent for a moment before he shook his head, unable to tell Gevan's wife and children that Gevan was dead.


Not to mention after hearing the boy's words, making Marvel's feelings even more painful.


The boy was waiting for his father, he wanted the figure of Father by his side. How could Marvel just show up and say that his father is no longer in this world.


Marvel feels so guilty, even though it's not really his fault.


“Then what do you want?”


“Let me solve this problem in my own way brother, we don't need to tell them. This news will only add to their burden.Sounds selfish indeed, that I am blocking them from knowing what really happened. But not now. I can't, I can't bear.”


Juan furrowed his brows, “If you can't let me just go see them and say all of them, you're pretty tall in the car.”


Marvel shook his head, “We better go back to the hospital, sister, I will take care of this matter after I recover completely. And I'll make Gevan's request to me a reality. Can you turn this car around and go back to the hospital? Please don't ask any further, trust me.”


Juan clucked but finally he obeyed the will of Marvel, “You always just like this. Prioritizing the happiness of others over your own happiness.”


Marvel smiled bitterly at the words of his older brother. “Entah brother, I don't understand either. Maybe this is me.”
