The Love of Habib
Chapters 24.4
"My body's a little sultry and a little uncomfortable." Answer Khalid while looking at me.
But why are Khalid's eyes a little different when looking at me?
Is it just my feeling that brother Khalid seems to want me. Really, this is the feeling when you are coveted and missed by someone, as if you want to be pounced on by that person, this is what I feel now. Because of this desired feeling, my face became hot and I did not dare to look directly at him.
Khalid's gaze was too hot and not at all camouflaged.
"I think Brother Khalid needs time to rest. So it's better-"
"It's okay. I'm fine." He said it was okay but his voice grew heavier.
I don't agree.
"True habib Thalib, you should rest immediately because you may not be feeling well. Don't push yourself too much because I can still talk to Aish here while waiting for the other guests to arrive." My grandfather tried to persuade Brother Khalid to go get some rest.
"Right, what Grandpa said. Better now brother go rest first in the room." Bojoku.
I'm not strong if I'm stared at this hot brother Khalid. My mind is going everywhere. I was afraid that Brother Khalid would know my thoughts about him.
"I just need a quick shower and drink more water. Please wait for me here." After speaking so she flattered to me and Grandpa before exiting the living room.
Huf... I'm glad I saw him leave.
If I stay here any longer, my knees will definitely go limp. Ah, it's wrong of brother Khalid who can't hold his eyes on me.
"Look Grandpa, he is a very considerate and kind man. Even when he's sick he still thinks about us, how can I not fall for him?" I'm proud of Grandpa.
Look at my future husband, he has everything that many women crave. And I'm so proud because the lucky woman he's with is me.
"Son, Grandpa has seen it and Grandpa is proud of you. Grandfather finally understood why your mother entrusted you to him instead of trusting the other family. But may Grandpa ask, since when did you call him 'sister Khalid '? Is he not angry with you?" Grandpa's expression looked in a somewhat strange direction.
Grandfather might be astonished to see me calling Brother Khalid like this, not only was Grandpa astonished but almost everyone who heard him was astonished as well. They wonder why I call brother Khalid so intimately, and they cannot.
I used to not know at once wonder, but now I understand.
"I've been calling her like this since we first met in the city. And brother Khalid was not angry, and he did not like to hear me call him by his title. Every time I let him call him 'habib Thalib', he would be unhappy and would punish me. Grandpa is confused, right? Hehe... I was also confused at first. But now I understand Grandpa. It's because he thinks I'm special. What other reason than this?" I said in a laugh.
Seeing me laugh, Grandpa laughed as well. His old face looked very happy today. He looked different, and much more cheerful than the first time we met. I was so relieved that Grandpa was finally able to smile off.
"But does Grandpa know that my sister also likes Brother Khalid? Father and Mother supported my sister's feelings for her. I heard that they were going to try to find a connection to match up my brother to Khalid. I knew that was impossible because we were engaged. And brother Khalid could not have accepted this match because the person he liked was not my brother but me. But still Grandpa, I still think about this matter. Let alone the family siding with my sister, could it be that they would force me to separate and let my sister take my place?" This sounds funny like what is in a soap opera or novel, but this is how it is.
If one is already desperate and caught up in greed, any way can be done. I believe that my family will have this reaction when I find out that my brother Khalid and I are engaged. I don't doubt it.
"Ohuk... Don't think about it, son. Husband-intent your lover's grandfather is not someone who is easily offended. He could not be controlled by Grandfather's family nor anyone else because he had his own stance. You don't have to worry about him leaving everything to him. There is also Grandfather who is ready to defend you at any time. With Grandpa, your father or anyone else in the family will never be able to do anything to you again. Especially in this relationship."
"I'm glad to hear that. With Grandpa and him I don't have to worry anymore."
"Assynogaal?" Someone gave a greeting.
Maybe it was the guest that Grandpa was waiting for. But leave immediately to open the front door. It turned out that the foreign woman was with a man who was thought to be a servant. A servant could not possibly hold hands with his master, so it was certain that the identity of the man was the husband of this woman.
Right, this woman has a relationship with me. Could it be that his purpose in coming here was to meet me?
"Vaalaikumsalam. Let's go in." I opened the door wide and let the two of them go inside.
The woman took the man's hand off him. Smiling widely, he walked over to me and grabbed my hand.
I was surprised but did not shake his hand.
"Aish is now big. She's just as beautiful as my sister."
Aw,
Is he the sister of my mother? My Mama's biological sister?
Then I should have called this woman an aunt?
"I'm..."
"Let's go inside. We have plenty of time to talk about it." Perhaps seeing my confusion, he immediately pulled me inside.
And when we entered, Grandfather did not react in confusion. It seems that Grandfather knew from the very beginning about the arrival of this woman.
"Om, it's been a long time. Last time we met when my brother married into your house."
Grandfather smiled faintly, his eyes dimming.
"Your brother was persecuted in my house, I feel very guilty."
That woman-no, just tell my aunt. She still had a gentle smile on her beautiful face.
"Don't blame yourself, Om. We know that Om has been trying hard to save my brother's marriage, but it is Om's troubled son. For that we have long since described it"
ACHH
"PLEASE HABIB TALIB WANTS TO RAPE ME!"
