The Love I Don't Miss
Part 50 ( Something Not Easy)

If in the office there is Zio who began to leave the main office area of the company Adhitama. Then there was another man who had just arrived at an apartment parking lot.

His firm steps walked closer to the elevator that would take him to get to his apartment block.

It was Kenzo Adhitama. He went home alone. Because Clarice had been escorted by Mang Heru back to the apartment anyway.

"Sister!" greet a man from behind him.

Kenzo looked back, considering that the voice was very familiar to his ears. Who else if not...

"Say!" pekik Kenzo saw his only brother running slowly towards him. "When are you here?"

"I got to Papa's house this afternoon!" reply Gilang. "And came here on purpose waiting for you to come home from work!"

The 31-year-old walked over to his brother. Their height is the same, their posture is similar. If from behind, strangers will think they're twins. But in terms of face there are still some differences.

"What's wrong?" ask Kenzo flat. "You miss me?" he continued to mock a little.

"Just want to see you!" reply Gilang lightly. "I heard .... " Gilang hung up his sentence while glancing at the jail on Kenzo beside him.

The one in the lyrics replied with a cynical glance. A sign of annoyance will glare at his sister.

They both got into the elevator at the same time. One another threw a gaze from the reflection of the elevator wall that was almost like a four-sided mirror. Then the same - same thin smile. While throwing away the view with their own thoughts.

But Gilang, the man finally laughed without a sound. I don't know what he was thinking. He just always wanted to laugh every time he saw his older brother who was currently.

"Keep laughing!" gerutu Kenzo kicked Gilang's leg pissed. "For a long time your teeth must be dry!"

"Haha!" it was precisely the man who was no less handsome than Kenzo who laughed out loud. Seeing the face of the Big Brother always made him laugh by himself.

"Gill! I won't let you into the apartment, if you keep laughing at me!" kenzo spray pitched ketus and threatening.

"Haha!" rest - the rest of Gilang laughter. "Sorry, Brother.." said Gilang embrace Kenzo's shoulder warmly. "I just still didn't expect you to be a Daddy!" said Gilang continued to hold his laughter. "I thought you'd be an old virgin, for example! Ahhaha!" the laughter grew louder.

Kenzo glanced at the annoyed Gilang who was standing beside him with his head continuously looking up at the sky - the sky of the elevator as a result of laughing too loudly and loosely.

This is the umpteenth moment when Gilang and Kenzo meet again. After one big moment in Australia a few years ago. The last time I met was a year ago.

Tooengs!

Kenzo shook Gilang's head in annoyance. Makes the man stagger to the side. Until he put his hands on the wall to support the body to stay in a standing position.

"Daddy Kenzo.." joked Gilang held back a laugh.

Ting!

Elevator door opens. They were on a floor that contained only a few doors. Because the floor that is headed both are exclusive floors. Where only people with thick pockets can afford it.

Kenzo stepped out of the elevator, as did Gilang. It must be reflex to follow in the steps of the brother.

Kenzo put his hand on a detector near a door. Make the door open automatically.

The first room only has a closed closet, which contains footwear and some shoes that are often used by Kenzo and the rest of the house.

He smiled when he saw the tiny white shoes. Yes, the Unicorn shoes Clarice had been wearing to school.

"Where is he? Why doesn't anyone welcome Daddy Kenzo?" ask Gilang with a annoying face that often appears in his handsome face. The two legs alternately lowered the back of his shoes.

Gilang Adhitama is different from Kenzo Adhitama. Despite having almost the same good looks. More friendly and humorous. He was more often seen laughing than putting on a fierce face.

In contrast to Kenzo which more often creates the impression of cold. It even nearly froze anyone who was beside it. Especially the employees.

"Clarice.." exclaimed Gilang semerdu as he could. "Clarice.." he cried again when he had not heard the answer from the little girl.

Gilang stepped into the living room which was quite spacious. Lonely, there was no one there. Gilang continued to step up, leaving Kenzo to take off his shoes.

"Loh, Den Gilang!" call someone from the kitchen.

"Mister Irah!" gilang replied turning to the middle-aged woman with a few strands of white hair on her head. "Where is Clarice and my beloved sister's wife?" goda Gilang glanced at Kenzo while holding back a laugh.

"Little Miss is in her room, Den!" replied Ma'am Irah. The woman from Adhitama's main house is assigned to help complete homework in Kenzo's apartment.

"Sleep?"

"I don't know, Den... Neng Calina is also on top..."

"Say!" the sound from the top of the stairs made Gilang look up. Where looks Calina standing behind the second-floor fence in a simple dress. Only wear shorts above the knee and T-shirts only.

"Mas!" calina looked behind Gilang. Where Kenzo started to enter the living room.

Quick - hurry Calina down from the second floor. With a little running.

Usually Calina will not miss herself to welcome the arrival of Kenzo. Kenzo's arrival was never certain. Given Kenzo is a CEO with various types of busyness.

"Just home?" tanya Calina grabbed Kenzo's hand and kissed the back of her hand. "Sorry I fell asleep!"

"Yes." replied Kenzo replying to Calina's kiss in her hand by gently tipping Calina's forehead.

"Eghm! Eghm!" dehem Gilang is pretty loud. "Crazy! This luxurious apartment can get me swallowed by dust by accident!"

Silang said insinuating while a crab clutching the throat. Because of the inconvenience, he was like a useless mosquito repellent in the room.

"Syrics!" kenzo lirih.

"Where's Clarice?" ask Calina.

"Still asleep in his room."

"Gallen?"

"Sleep in our room!"

"It's already Maghrib! Why do you sleep so much!" muttered Gilang stepped up the stairs with half a run. Get ready to tease two little humans who will definitely be very adorable.

Madam Irah is back in the kitchen. Gilang had disappeared in the swallow arrangement of stairs that swerve up. Kenzo and Calina live in the living room.

Kenzo lays down Calina's body. Pulling the woman's waist to stick perfectly to her body. Until there is no distance at all. There are only breaths that blow along with the heart that always beats fast every time the two are close together.

It feels like two teenagers are in love! Although we have been together for years. Yeah, it's been four years since Kenzo and Calina built a housewife.

It's not easy for Calina to have Kenzo's heart intact. There were several stones raining down that made him in pain. But there was a rainbow that comforted him.

Until he came out as a winner, and became the only wife of a Kenzo Adhitama.

The one that is dear to Calina's victory. She was not publicly announced as Mrs Kenzo. Especially appearing in the Adhitama company. Where almost 100% of the people in it know, if he's Zio Alvaro's ex-wife.

He is not ready to face the public. Only certain people know about their marriage other than the nuclear family. One of them is Mereen Maulidya.

"I miss you.." said Kenzo, who kissed her thin lips with a nude color. Make those thin lips look beautiful without having to overdo it.

Thin lips that were tightly shut, instantly chuckled without a sound. I don't know, even though it's been 5 years together, it feels like Kenzo's romantic sentences always sound very rare in Calina's ears.

Every time Kenzo said, the memory would deliver Calina to the past. Where once the man was very cold, sniffy and did not talk much.

And now, for the last three years, almost every day he will hear sweet words from a Kenzo Adhitama.

"Always laugh.." - Kenzo squealed his eyes.

"You always look adorable every time you say that phrase when you just get home from work!" answer Calina.

"Wrong?"

"I mean, just one day not to meet."

Calina cupped Kenzo's jaw, then replied to Kenzo with a kiss. The gentle kiss that he had done countless times to Kenzo.

"Did I still look like Kenzo five years ago?" asked Kenzo with increasingly tightened hands at Calina's waist.

"Hmmm.... Of course not!" answer Calina. "What's still the same as before, is just your face that doesn't seem to age at all!" obviously Calina stroked the firm line of her husband's face.

"I've been pretty since I was born!" suhut Kenzo lightly. Any dispute can be, because according to reality. "Until your hair turns white, I'll still be handsome!" said Kenzo competing arrogantly in front of Calina.

Calina who already knows a Kenzo, certainly can only laugh. Behind Kenzo's cold out there. Kenzo still has a funny and humorous side. Not everyone has a chance to see it.

***

In one of the rooms on the second floor, Gilang was sponsoring his step-nephew. The beautiful girl who was born almost five years ago also got the affection of a Gilang.

"Wake up, baby girl.." whispered Gilang in Clarice's ear.

Sturdy fingers peeked at the little girl's puffed cheeks with anxiety.
