In life we never know what will happen in the future. That was what was currently in Shinta's mind. Getting to his current life is not easy. Born into a modest family, Shinta is not disappointed. His father was just an ordinary employee and his mother a kindergarten teacher whose salary was not much. As the second daughter of four sisters who are all female, Shinta quite understands the financial situation of her parents.
Her life changed after she was asked to stay at Mama Syila's residence. As a child not only Shinta who lived with Mama Syila, but she was both her youngest sister who asked Mama Syila to be her daughter and Papa Joy who was legally passed. Mama Syila could not have children after having a miscarriage, so she asked permission from Shinta's mother who is Mama Syila's sister and Shinta's father to take care of Shinta and her sister.
Although it was hard to release his two daughters, but for the future of his two daughters, Shinta's father and mother allowed Mama Syila to care for and raise Shinta and her sister. But unfortunately, his sister had already gone home because of an accident. Until Shinta who became the favorite of Mama Syila, moreover, the two sons of the first wife Papa Jay never wanted to return to Indonesia, choosing to live with Mr. Smith was their uncle.
That's the fact that Shinta just found out, Jonathan's two older brothers who Shinta thought was the son of Mr. Smith turned out to be the son of Papa Jay which means stepson of Mama Syila, who is the son of Mama Syila, that's why they are also the shareholders of Papa Jay. Even the value of their shares was much greater than that of Shinta. Jonathan is the only son of Mr Smith, although Shinta's blood does not feel he is lying, saying he and Jonathan are brothers.
"So Jody and Ben are Papa Jay's children?" reyhan asked, they are currently on their way home. Shinta nodded in confirming.
"Why didn't you ever tell me you had a brother in the USA, baby?" ask Reyhan again.
"Yes even though you have no blood relation, because you are the nephew of Mama Syila, but because you have become the son of Papa Jay and Mama Syila even legal in the eyes of the law of course you become brothers"
"Those who have been keeping a distance from Mama and Shinta, maybe because Papa Jay is gone, they assume there is no relationship with us anymore" Shinta replied as she could.
Shinta sighed harshly, it was only fitting that during this time she had seen Mama Syila cry several times.
"What's wrong? reyhan asked, looking sad at his wife.
"There is nothing just feeling kasian with Mama who must be alone in her old age"
"Mama Syila isn't alone baby, she's got you her only daughter and I'm her only handsome daughter-in-law. We're his family now" Shinta confirmed Reyhan's words while chuckling with Reyhan's charms mentioning he's handsome.
"Darling, what about Jonathan?" Reyhan asked because he was still curious about the relationship between Shinta and Jonathan. Shinta stopped her chuckling.
"Why with him?" Shinta asks back, she is not very comfortable when discussing Jonathan with Reyhan.
"It's nothing, it's just that what I saw seemed like he was very attentive to you. He looks more like your brother than Papa Jay's two sons"
"Maybe he pityes Shinta, seeing that the real Shinta brother doesn't care. Shinta was still a child and did not understand anything, while she was in college. It could be that he becomes more concerned about Shinta and considers Shinta as his sister"
Reyhan nodded in understanding, there was nothing wrong with what Shinta said, moreover their age was very far away. Jonathan is married to his best friend Jessy. Jonathan's affectionate gaze was the affection of a brother with his sister. Even if Jonathan likes Shinta of course since the first time he must ask Shinta to be his wife, after all their family is very close may not be condoned.
"Yes, he's brother and Harem's best friend. He wanted Harem to be his girlfriend. Actually not only Jessy, the other girls also like Harem. How they were not interested, Harem had the wealth of a sultan. All women will not refuse if the Harem invite him even if it is just dinner together and after Harem will forget them"
"Wahhhh turns out Harem has a lot of fans, then why are Jessy and Harem not together?" Shinta begins to wonder about the story of the two.
"Different beliefs, that's what Harem can't be with Jessy" Shinta smiled, she understood. That was also what Jonathan explained to her this morning.
"Nath has told me more than ten times that you love me, so why don't you propose and ask me to get married" Shinta said as she grew tired of the love she kept saying Jonathan.
"Who says I have no plans to propose to you" Jonathan grabs Shinta's hand and slips his fingers through Shinta's.
"I've talked about this to my family to propose to you, but they remind me that we're different and can't be together. Especially about our beliefs" Shinta fell silent at Jonathan's explanation.
"Truly I really love you sweetie, even because I love you too much I can't share it with Jessy in the least. But I realized I couldn't have you, so let me be your foster brother, so that I could still give my love and affection for you" Shinta just kept quiet and listened to every Jobathan remark.
"Therefore I beg you to let us be together while I am in Indonesia" Jonathan asked. Shinta remained silent, neither refusing nor asserting Jonathan's words. He could not think at this moment, what steps he should take.
"So I saw Brother and Jessy hugging tightly, you must miss each other" Shinta asked after she regained consciousness from her memory of Jonathan.
Reyhan chuckled "You're jealous?" Shinta shook her head "Actually we just made up" Reyhan continued. Shinta saw her husband did not understand.
"Last I talked to him when he told me about our marriage, after which he could not be reached. Even his marriage was not informed, but Abang knew from Harem who flew to the USA to attend his wedding"
"the cause?" ask Shinta.
Reyhan only raises his shoulders, until now he does not know what makes Jessy not want to take the phone or message, even block the number. It is unlikely that what Jessy said last time was the truth that she asked Reyhan to propose to her.
While Shinta suspects that Jessy doesn't like Reyhan marrying her, because the woman is angry after Reyhan informs them of their marriage. What was more, when she was in Reyhan's arms, the woman seemed comfortable there. While with Jonathan, there is no intimate closeness interaction of the two.
Shinta massaged her temple, tired of thinking about it all. It wasn't Jessy who kept her distance from Jonathan, but because Jonathan couldn't love her yet and it was because of her. Because Jonathan can't share his love for Jessy even a little. So Jessy is looking for Reyhan. Did ya?
