The Devil's Touch
#127
Tessa sat on the bed straightening her legs, her face pale and weak. It was because the feeling he had been craving for years was already exposed.
Meanwhile Maxime was pouring water into a glass on the bedside table and gave it to Tessa.
"Drink first ..." Maxime sat next to Tessa, looking at her, gulped her water in half, and handed Maxime another glass.
Maxime accepts her and keeps the glass on the table.
Tessa could only look down, the atmosphere turning so awkward for her. His heart was pounding, his brain was thinking fast how to answer Maxime's question about the painting he saw earlier.
"Try explaining. How can hm?"
Tessa swallows her salivary rough, how is this. To look up at Maxime alone Tessa did not dare.
Maxime held the back of Tessa's hand to calm the woman down.
"Sister wasn't angry, not one bit. But you want to ask me how and from when?"
Honestly, Maxime's mind is in a rage right now, at first he was angry because Miwa loves Arsen but did not think Tessa was the opposite with him.
But Maxime tries to calm down, not to get angry with Tessa.
"Tessa ..." call Maxime.
Tessa slowly looked up by biting her lower lip nervously.
"Sir Maxi ..."
"Yes?" Maxime raised one eyebrow. "Just talk, brother won't be mad ..."
Tessa breathed. "I'm sorry .." - She looked down with teary eyes.
"Sister Maxi must hate me now ..."
Maxime shook his head slowly, closing his eyes. If only Tessa knew how Miwa and Arsen were.
"Sister doesn't hate you, there's nothing wrong with feeling. Brother apologizes .. because, because brother is already with Milan."
Tessa grinned bitterly hearing it with teary eyes.
"If you know and you haven't been with Milan, can we ..."
Maxime shook his head in a forced manner, not wanting to hurt Tessa more deeply. Seeing that Tessa could only exhale, a breath that came out with pain.
"You're still the best little sister for brother ..." Maxime said, stroking Tessa's head.
Maxime approached and grabbed the woman by closing his eyes. Tessa cries silently in Maxime's arms.
Behind the open door a little Milan stood up and peeked at Maxime hugging Tessa. Should he be jealous? No, Tessa's still her sister. Milan sighed and walked away from the room.
"I'm sorry big brother .." said Maxime slowly.
"You must have found a better one than brother ..." Maxime stroked Tessa's back to calm down.
"Nothing is as good as Maxi's sister," Tessa's inner self.

At five o'clock in the morning Maxime returned to his room, he saw Milan sleeping sideways. Maxime smiled and hugged Milan from behind.
"It's morning baby ... school hm." Maxime peeked at Milan's cheek.
Milan just moved without opening his eyes.
"Let's get up don't be a slacker ..."
"I am still sleepy .." said Milan with a special sound of sleep.
"Sleep again after school. Let's wake!"
Maxime drew Milan's hand, Milan bent his face with his eyes closed. And that made Maxime chuckle.
"Fast to the bathroom" Maxime said.
Milan just scratched his head by still bending his face. Then he breathed a rough breath.
"I'd love to take a year off ..."
Maxime laughed and gave a kiss on Milan's face.
"In the meantime, baby, I'm not gonna let you skip school. Come on now take a shower or am I gonna bathe you?"
Milan suddenly opened his eyes staring at Maxime sharply.
"Don't fuck around!!"
Maxime laughed again and finally Milan moved from the bed into the bathroom with an uninspired step. Maxime just shook his head while smiling at Milan's behavior.
His smile slowly faded when Milan had entered the bathroom, he recalled Tessa again. What he had to do with his sister was other than hope Tessa could forget about him.
"Sir Maxi ..." Miwa opened Maxime's room slowly.
"Come in" said Maxime.
"Sir, Tessa ... how?"
"He's asleep" said Maxime.
Miwa sighed. "I don't even know since when she likes you feet."
"If I had known before Milan came, maybe I would have told you. For this matter to be finished long ago .. Kasian Tessa, but also Milan kasian ..."
Maxime rubbed his face rough. "Sister still hasn't thought of how to cope with Tessa other than asking her to forget sister ..."
"But big brother didn't intend to stay away from her, did he?" ask Miwa.
Maxime. "Of course not, he's already a big brother as his own sister."
"Yes, I hope there's no problem separating the four of us."
Miwa is just not willing, the togetherness of the four of them is separated because of this.
"You talk like that when you and Arsen first make us almost quarrel!"
"Silver Arsen is different, brother, he has not had a lover. So I can still try. But Tessa? Maxi already has Milan. Besides, if Arsen already has a lover where I might want to be with him."
Maxime sighed. "What if Tessa knows about your relationship with Arsen, she'll be upset and upset."
Miwa bent her face. "Yes too, but on the other hand I can't take off Arsen's brother."
Maxime ruffled his hair in frustration. "Why is it like this!!"
Miwa looked at Maxime. His eyes showed a great plea. "Don't separate me and Arsen's brother because of Tessa's problem ..."
Maxime cleared his throat in response then he stared at Miwa's appearance from top to bottom.
"Where are you going?"
Miwa smiled at her smile. "Making Arsen's brother jealous, I'd like to go with Daniel."
Maxime sighed harshly. "Sister don't interfere anymore with that matter, sister should think about Tessa."
"Son't take care of Tessa and Milan. I can handle my own problems hehe."
"MAXIM!!" Shouted Arsen opened the door violently. Maxime and Miwa jumped in shock.
"Tessa's fever." Arsen exclaimed with a panicked face.
Maxime quickly exits his room, followed by Miwa and Arsen. They went to Tessa's room and found her curled up while shivering. Maxime held his forehead, Tessa's body was extremely hot.
In a panic Maxime held Tessa to take her to the hospital.
"Ka-kak ... Ma-xi ..." Tessa spoke stammering as her body shivered strongly.
"We're going to the hospital" Maxime said.
"What's this?" Ara greeted them under the stairs.
"Jeez Tessa ..."
"Aunty call the others, we'll take Tessa to the hospital" Miwa said.
Ara nodded and immediately ran over to call Javier and the others. When on the terrace they were greeted by Daniel who had been sitting in his car to wait for Miwa.
"Sial*n why are you here?!!" snapped Arsen to Daniel.
"There's no time left, Daniel took us to the hospital" Maxime said.
"Well what is this, why is he?"
"Don't ask too many questions! come fast!"
Daniel nodded and helped open the door.
"Max don't get in this car!!" arsen.
Maxime put Tessa slowly in the back seat and closed the door.
"Lose that jealousy!! this is a fucking emergency*n!!"
"You're sitting in the back with Tessa."
"Yes, brother."
"And you're fast in if you want to come!!" peekkik Maxime to Arsen. Daniel got behind the wheel.
Arsen clucked, inevitably he circled the car and sat to the left of Tessa.
The car drove quickly out of the courtyard of the mansion. At the same time Milan came out of the bathroom with a bathrobe attached to his body, he was wailing to see Maxime who was not in the room and the door was wide open.
"So it seemed like there was Miwa's voice," muttered Milan who heard Miwa's voice in the room.
He also hears Arsen's voice but does not hear Arsen say Tessa is sick because her voice is drowned out by the sound of a shower in the bathroom.
