"Whataaa?", cried Rose so loudly.
Both Uncle Alex and Victor covered their ears with both hands while grimacing slightly. As for Ben, the man only scratched his ears with one little finger but still maintained his flat expression.
"Whispering!", Ben rang Rose's forehead as punishment for damaging everyone's eardrum.
"Aww! Pain", the woman stroked her painful forehead. Although it looks lightly Ben nudged it, but quite spicy he taste there. Then he pursed his lips a sign of protest with a careless attitude that was done by Ben for him.
"Nothing else this sir has made my forehead hurt. Tomorrow moreover, maybe my heart is hurting!", his grunts while incessantly making cones with his lips.
"Heart?", asked Ben coldly while linking his two eyebrows deeply. What kind of talk is that, Ben thought. After all what matters to the heart, the man stared fiercely at Rose.
"It looks like it's a good idea!", Victor adds spice between the two. He was very sure that Ben's expression showed that the man did not understand Rose's intentions. While his sister who was glaring at him, must be very upset because this brother has agreed on what he just said with origin.
"After that, we better go in first while waiting for lunch to be prepared. Uncle Alex, please take Rose to her room so she can put her things there", Victoria's orders were immediately agreed by Uncle Alex.
"Please, Miss!", then the middle-aged man politely let out a hand inviting the woman to walk ahead of him.
"I just came, Uncle. What if we walked together. Don't be so polite and stiff! I feel strange, Uncle", said Rose did not want Uncle Alex to be confused with him. So from the beginning Rose had warned her to just be relaxed.
"And that, can I please?", with her cute face Rose played her fingers in front while looking down embarrassed.
"Tell me, Miss! I'll definitely help you", Uncle Alex smiled kindly. It was very peaceful and calm as it looked towards the man's face.
"Please bring me that bag, Uncle. It was quite heavy", Pinta Rose politely but Ben felt it was like a spoiled gesture made-up.
"Geez! Burn it if you can't take it. Bother!", said Ben while taking his eyes off.
"Hey, you!", Rose grumbled as she pointed at Ben.
"What!", Ben glared at the woman trying to deal with the provocation he had made before.
"It seems like the idea you're giving her is okay, too, Ben", for a moment Rose will be happy with what her sister says. But after knowing who the speech was addressed to, then he rounded his eyes big towards his brother.
"Yes, burn it!", Victor teases his sister. While Uncle Alex on the side was just trying to hold back his laughter.
"Sister!", cried Rose did not accept. How could her brother even defend others rather than his own sister. And even more upset, the man in the cowboy hat was glancing haughtily at him.
"Then let Ben help you with the bag!", Victor's ignorant smile blossomed.
"NO!", the two said at the same time. Even the voice was quite shrill in his ears.
Ben glared back at Rose with his cold aura. Suppressing the guts of the woman who was now staring hostilely at him. And at once the woman immediately lowered her head and looked clearly like a frightened little cat.
Victor was really amused by the view. I don't know since when, his old partner likes to talk a lot. Especially now that can be served is a woman. Very deviated from the attitude of Ben that he knew. The man was cold-hearted even to a woman. Uncompassionate without regard to genre. But what he saw at this moment was truly extraordinary. His decision was not wrong to ask for Rose's presence by his side at this time, especially regarding his illness where his age was soon.
The final decision was Uncle Alex mediating the problem. He walked first and carried the bag that Rose had left near the door that led into the house. Then they began to disappear into the residence.
"Aren't I saying that?! With Rose here, life will be more colorful" Victor said meaningfully. But he was also refraining from laughing when he saw Ben's expression that was slightly surprised by his words.
"What do you mean?", asked Ben coldly.
"Clearly, right?! Do I have to explain it at length?! You know for yourself that it wasn't you as usual. How could a Benny Callary be provoked by a woman?! Haha, how would your subordinates face if they saw this rare sight", Victor dissolved into his imagination imagining the deathly pale faces of all his former comrades who were looking at his notorious boss in a fight with a woman.
"Alright, alright! Let's end this! I know you've lost!", laughing lightly Victor is still trying to end his temptation.
Ben was so lazy to argue with the man again. Then he could only put on his mainstay fierce face plus ice-cold eyes that were perfectly rounded.
"You think I'll be scared? I was more afraid of death, which would come suddenly to pick me up in the near future", this time Victor had completely stopped laughing. He looked straight ahead, staring somewhere.
"You can still have the operation. Now your sister is here. Bone marrow transplant might work", Ben replied no less serious. He followed Victor's gaze forward.
"Although he's my younger brother, but his match rate will not necessarily be that big!", said Victor.
"I don't expect too much about myself, Ben! I just wish a lot of happiness to my sister. I know how much she suffered while living there. Although not so clear, but with the temperament of my stepmother and stepbrother, it was clear that Rose had been their slave all this time. Rose's rough hands were not as gentle as the other girls' hands, many calluses around her fingers. It was very clear that all this time he had always done menial work at home. Oh Mr. Benneth, I want to feel like I'm punishing you for all this!", beginning with grief as he recalled how he had touched his sister's palm. Then it ends with anger at those who have no heart let alone his father, Mr. Benneth himself.
"And from that, try to be optimistic! And do your healing right away, I'm sure Rose will agree. He loves you very much, it's very clear in his eyes" said Ben seriously trying to encourage his old friend.
"Waahh, since when do you know more about affection?!", Victor teases his partner again and again.
"If you're not sick, I've been fighting you here!", Ben exasperatedly left his friend behind. He walked into the house.
"Hey, don't you feel sorry for your sick friend?!", cried Victor as he tried to hold back his smile.
"Well! Since when did I become defeated by these brothers!", sigh Ben resigned. Then he turned around and helped push the wheelchair that Victor was riding in.
"Ahh happy, if you have a sister-in-law!", said Victor just as smiling won because in the end Ben still wanted to push him.
"Who are you saying sister-in-law?!", asked Ben sharply as he continued to push her inside.
"Nothing! I just talk carelessly. But if you're gonna sign up, I don't think I need to go back to it. You pass!", hahaha Victor felt like he wanted to laugh as hard as he could because of winning big since. He was sure that this cowboy was blushing, not out of shame but out of anger. Maybe if Victor is in good condition, he has been kicked strong to fall a few meters to the ground. There are also benefits to being a sick person, he thought.
