Me And The Stars
Chapter 67 Not a big brother, but us

Satya

After returning from a vacation on the island of Tidung, the next day I expressed my intention to propose Flowers to Mother.

I followed him who was walking leisurely around the complex. His tired feet stepped into the courtyard of the house after we went around for twenty minutes.

We sat in the garden chair. I clasped his hand. "Mom, Satya loves a girl and intends to marry her."'

The woman smiled. "Who's the lucky girl." Mom touched my cheek. "Who is the girl who can take the heart of a mother's son?"

I smile. "Flowers." I said with certainty.

"Bu-flower?" I don't know why mom stuttered. His face turned grim.

I nodded weakly.

"The flower of Darma and Citra's daughter?" I'm nodding.

Mother stands. "Don't him, Sat. Don'tdon't. Find whoever that woman is, just don't look for her." Mother left me still confused by this situation. The mother I thought would always support me. Greatest hope. It was precisely the one that became a barrier to my relationship with Flowers.

Should I choose between Mother and Flowers?

No. gabe. Choosing between the two is impossible. It's the same as choosing which wing I should break. I can't.

Mother, the angelic figure who was willing to pick me up from the orphanage. A figure that is fair. Never differentiated between me and Arum.

I didn't even force you to get married. He instead betrothed Arum and Akhtar when Mom and Dad wanted a grandchild present. Is it because my body doesn't flow father's blood? Until they don't expect grandchildren from me?

I feel in a state of mind. Confused what to say to the flower. And what to persuade mom. Mom didn't even give me a reason why I shouldn't marry Bunga.

I went to see the flowers. I can't tell him this matter yet. I'm trying my best to hide this from her until the right time I'll tell her everything.

This Saturday I flew to Surabaya. Meet Akhtar at Arumi Resto. I purposely told her to come, because I would introduce her as a substitute for father. I will take my responsibilities one by one.

I would even let go of the inheritance that father gave me if mother asked me to return all as a condition so that I could continue my relationship with Bunga.

Not to be disobedient or ungrateful. But I'm not sure I'd be happy if I wasn't with Bunga. I can no longer look at another woman with love.

Hopefully, if I fall poor the flower will still accept me.

I told Akhtar my problem. "Mama Hana must have had a reason, Sat."

"Yes, but what is Tar?"

"Take Mama know that flowers are the best. Tell mom that your relationship started even before the tragedy of Rezki and Arum."

"I'll try, Tar. I'll take mother and Zoya if one day she won't think of me as her son."

"Sorry, I don't want to!"

"Tar, please!" i'm begging.

"Don't be flabby, Sat!! Mama's still your responsibility!" snapped it.

"Tar, I'm not sure."

"Then convince mom. Try Sat!" He patted my shoulder.

"The cross will definitely help you. The flower of his beloved sister."

"Zoya we'll definitely help."

"Our Zoya?" my many.

"Yes, the grace that Arum left us. Trust me, he's a fused. Even for all that is separate."

"He's the family liaison om Darma and papa Bram. He's your family's liaison and Lintang. He's the link between you and the flower."

I'm speechless. He's correct. We're connected because of Zoya. Do I have to involve Zoya when I talk to Mom?

"So, you're saying I should use Zoya to beg mom."

"Ck." He's clucking. "Dizziness can be, Sat! B*go no!"

The idea can too.

When I landed in Jakarta, I went straight to Akhtar's house. My mother told me she was taking the kids for a walk. I'll go home with mom, later.

Arriving there, I was surprised by the presence of Flowers in the Lintang house. The girl who looked at me flatly without expression. Probably because our communication wasn't good this week. I always send her a short message.

Right now I miss him so much. Wants to run to it. But it seems like my brain is still sane. I finally got up the courage to ask him to speak. "Na, let's talk for a second!"

Floral

Satya followed me who walked towards the gazebo which was located near the swimming pool.

Satya's sister blocked my hand, clasping my wrist tightly. He pulled me until I hit him. He immediately grabbed me. I can freely breathe the scent of perfume that is attached to the shirt he wears.

We kept quiet, enjoyed the moment and unraveled the longing that felt stifling. "Whatever happens, don't ever leave again, Na" she said stroking my hair a straight black hair that goes past her shoulder length.

"I will do anything for you, for this relationship, and for our future" he said.

I tried to break down the embrace, but the embrace was so tight. What's up, brother? You why?

"Please promise me one thing" he said.

"Sister..." I looked up. My nose even touched his chin.

He put our fists together. "promise, Na. Wait for me in a minute. Just a minute, Na."

What's really going on, brother? Why are you so nervous?

"Sister... Tell me, brother, what's wrong?"

"I'll wait till whenever Brother. Like my sister who always waits for me."

Sis Satya looked at me now, those beautiful eyes were wet. Even a single tear dripped at the end of his eyes. I wiped it with my finger.

"Even though I'm a poor man?"

I was confused as to where the conversation was going. But I still nodded.

"You want to accompany me from zero?"

I'm nodding.

"Thank you, Na." He held both my hands. "I love you, really!"

He always said it was the end. "Sister! Tell me what's up!" My atonement. My patience is over.

He was surprised and looked confused. "Mothers. Mother, Na."

"Why Aunt Hana, sister?"

"Mom doesn't approve of our relationship!"

!!!!!!!

I shut my mouth in disbelief. I took a step back. It's too heavy. Aunt Hana is her mother. And we can't be together without his blessing.

"Na, listen to me. I'll try to convince mom." He tried to grab my hand. But I avoided.

I took another step back. Aunty Hana's ever-friendly shadow flashed through my brain. Aunt Hana was never angry, never showed dislike towards me. Then why didn't he give you his blessing?

I have to see Aunt Hana! I can't make Satya's brother seem to be on the brink. I know he wants to be with me, but he can't fight his mother either.

We're gonna fight, brother. Our love has waited too long to be united.

The boisterous voices of Star and Zoya sounded faint. They're home yet?

I walked away from Satya. "Na. wait a minute. I'll convince mom."

"Not my brother, but me."
