Chapter 51 - Brother’s Here (2/2)
” My sister calls me suddenly and asks me to buy birth control pills for her and when I gave it to her, she tells me that she will explain everything later. Sadly I waited for a week but still no word from her.”
Shit. He heard everything. Now what? How I'm going to explain myself? My actions?
Before I could say a word he started to speak again. ” At first I thought that she did with someone else honestly. But it turns out that person was you all along! If you knew it why didn't you told me about it? And now that I came by myself to hear it from her, I'm kind of having doubts. Like seriously whom should I show pity. You—— who's being treated like a sėx toy or my sister—— who is in a fake marriage but now she wants to get physical.” Neil let out a deep sigh and he was probably holding back those things inside his mind. I hope that he can feel relaxed after this confession.
” Sex toy? That's not how it seems like-” I tried to correct his mistakes but,
” That's exactly how it is!” Neil yells at me by cutting into my speech. Wow. Ok. He's mad.
”Oh? Well.... I'm not going to ask you for forgiveness. It's up to you. I hope that you can understand my situation.”
” Did you really broke up with your girl friend?”
” Yes. Long time ago and right after that I realised my feelings for your sister.” I looked into his eyes like a man and told him with confidence.
” What? You like my sister?” Neil jumped up in surprise. So, he didn't heard the whole story. Damn it.
” Didn't Stella told you that part?” Lifting my eye brow, I asked him with a flat expression.
” No! I only heard that you two are fuċk buddies now. I was objecting this whole idea because I thought that my sis is being insensible.”
” Well I have told her about my feelings-”
” And she rejected you.”
Bro that hurts! I know that you have been witnessing this things since a long time. But maybe I'd feel kinda better if you did say that your sister said yes.
Ah! I have a long way to go.
” Yes. But I'm not backing down yet.” I didn't loose my positive vibe so I spoke again.
” Don't get my sister pregnant.” With a poker face Neil said to me.
” Wait... wha- I mean.... Of course. I won't do that. But don't get me wrong, it's not that I don't want to have kids with your sister, but I want to get her approval first.” Okay that was just so awkward. I mean what can I expect from Stella's brother. I was caught off guard which made me shutter while talking.
” Hmm. Look my sister is dumb. She may be doing this without even thinking about it. Just like how she decided to have fake marriage with you. At the end of the day, she's my sister and no matter what she does I'll take her side even if she's wrong.”
I could see the love for Stella in Neil's eyes. He was such a caring brother who was worried for his elder sister.
That time it felt like Stella was the younger one and Neil was the elder one, protecting her from all the harms. He has rights to know what his sister is facing and how her life is going. I should have informed him about it. He was definitely worried since that day.
” You know what? I really feel guilty for not telling you all this. For once it never came to my mind. I should have talked about this with you. I'm sorry bro.” Neil gave me a smile then hugged me. Finally he was cooled down.
