Clein sensed that someone had entered his room. He squirmed slowly and slightly opened his eyes. His sister was standing there looking at him. Slowly Clein got up and shuffled to sit leaning on the end of the bed.
"Home home? From when?"
Marcel was seen bowing his head then slowly he sat right beside Clein.
"Sister sorry Marcel."
Clein frowned.
"For?"
"On last night. Because I mean brother to come to the Stadium, Brother so meet his brother Edvin and brother Karel so say words that do not make brother."
Clein smiled faintly then hinted at Marcel to get closer to him. Marcel complied and approached Clein. At that moment Clein gently clutched his sister's body and leaned Marcel's head on his chest.
"Don't apologize for other people's mistakes. Brother came there not because of your compulsion. Big brother as your big brother must definitely support you, even if it's just a small support." Clein.
Marcel released Clein's embrace and looked at her brother's gentle bead of eyes.
"But Marcel couldn't see my sister last night. Marcel was worried that the moment big brother left with an angry expression without saying anything. Marcel's afraid of brother admitting something bad."
"Just calm. You don't have to worry about your sister anymore. Big brother is not a child and big brother can easily overcome Big Brother's anger."
Marcel smiled and nodded.
"Thank God. Marcel's relieved to hear it."
Clein rubbed Marcel's cheeks gently.
"You haven't answered my sister's question. Since when have you been home?"
"About an hour ago."
"One hour? Why don't you wake up brother?"
"Because Marcel wanted to wake up Brother just fit Marcel see brother sleeping, brother Clein seemed tired really. Finally Marcel did not wake up Brother, kasian was afraid just to sleep."
Clein smiled warmly.
"Eat already?"
Marcel shook his head slowly.
"Let's eat together. But I take a shower."
"Daddy brother."
Clein dyed the top of her sister's head fondly, then rushed up from her bed to go to the bathroom.
"Sister?" Call Marcel slowly. Clein who was about to enter the bathroom turned his head.
"Dad?" Marcel was seen squeezing his fingers because he was nervous. His mind wandered, until he did not realize that he was only silent for two minutes.
"Marcel what's going on? What do you want to say?"
Clein approached her sister. Marcel remained silent and was reluctant to speak. Clein pulled Marcel's chin to look him in the eye and dared to reveal the question he wanted to ask.
"Just say, don't hesitate."
"Marcel was afraid Clein's brother was angry."
"So I don't know what you're going to ask. But Brother promised, Brother will not scold you. Tell me, Marcel!"
Marcel was seen taking a deep breath before speaking. He also ventured to speak by looking at Clein's bead, though he felt very nervous and anxious. But he can try it, anyway he will not be too pushy, although a little convincing.
"Sunday Marcel along with several other players invited to come to the International Football Awards event held in Riyadh, Saudi Arabia. Many famous players were also present from overseas clubs."
"Yaaa, continues? Nice dong. It means your game is growing rapidly, Brother is also happy. What's wrong?" Clein asked who did not understand.
"But the problem is that Clein's sister Karel was invited. They're hoping that brother can come with Marcel." Ogre Marcel.
Upon hearing Karel's name being called, Clein's expression instantly changed. There was a dislike on his face. Clein took her breath and shook her head.
"Sister can't come!" Firm Clein.
"But brother, they're asking Brother Karel for an interview. They want you two to clarify last night's matter. So that what is reported by the media does not intersect and does not become hoax news." Marcel.
"Sister can't come especially if later you have to meet the man! Brother doesn't want to!"
"If Clein didn't come, would Clein's brother justify what the media was saying? There are even media that say that the sister is a woman who likes to humiliate a man. For the actions of big brother last night they dared to pour unreasonable things over their one-sided mind, without knowing the facts!"
"You should know, Brother Edvin was an enemy in high school. We are like water and oil, brother with him cannot be united in one place because we both have hatred for each other. You won't feel, if you're not in the big brother position. Brother won't leave, please don't force!" Clein gently rubbed the top of Marcel's head then rushed into the bathroom.
Marcel breathed in rough. He had tried to persuade Clein, but the result was the same. Clein did not want to go to the awards show together with him. Marcel had to tell Edvin about it immediately. So that his best friend does not expect too much from him.
*****
On the other hand Edvin was sitting on the sofa opposite Karel. Karel seemed to think hard about his sister's will.
"Is Clein coming?"
"Unknown to you, Marcel's still trying to persuade her."
"If Clein comes then Brother will come!"
"OK, briefly. Edvin Tanya was with Marcel."
Karel nodded and invited Edvin to contact his best friend. But not only did Edvin press Marcel's name in his contact, he first got a chat message from his best friend.
Vin, sorry, Brother Clein does not want to come to the awards event. He doesn't want to see your brother. I can't do anything else, I've tried to persuade you too, but Brother Clein remains firm as he stands.
Edvin clucked slowly. Karel who saw his sister looked frustrated just raised his right eyebrow.
"How's it?" Ask Karel.
"Sister Clein doesn't want to come, he says he doesn't want to see Brother."
Karel smiled in a slant, before he had guessed that Clein must have been trying to stay away from him. However Karel could not allow that, he had to meet with Clein. Such an event could be a great opportunity for Karel to humiliate Clein. He still could not accept Clein's actions, especially when the media reported news that seemed to demean him. Clein must come there anyway.
"Tell Marcel to tell his brother this. Brother is waiting for Clein to come on the show, if Clein doesn't come and try to avoid Brother, tell him that he's just a coward."
Edvin was silent for a moment.
"Eu-eummm Edvin can't bang. That sentence is too harsh. Edvin was afraid that Marcel and Brother Clein would be offended."
"Follow Brother's orders! Brother guarantee, Clein won't refuse to come to the event!"
Though hesitant, Edvin will try. He typed a message like what Karel, his sister, said. Hopefully this time it works, he will convince Marcel by adding words from him, so that Marcel does not take offense.
"It'll be so fun!" Lirih Karel smiled grinning.
At his house Marcel was waiting for a reply to a message from Edvin. After a while he opened the message and rounded his eyes perfectly. He could not accept that his brother whom he loved the most was considered a coward by the man who denigrated Clein last night.
Do not take heart my brother's words. He just wants to help you persuade Brother Clein. Remember, we must not waste this opportunity. Mumpung Karel's brother has not changed his mind. My brother said he would come if Brother Clein came too. Try my brother's advice first.
Marcel just sighed. Just then Clein had finished bathing and put on her bathrobe. Marcel stood up from his seat and walked over to Clein. Clein only took a quick glance and walked towards the closet to pick up her clothes.
"Sister?" Call Marcel. His voice was almost inaudible.
"Sister said brother won't come. Brother has clearly said it enough. Don't lure big brother's emotions, Cel." Clein.
Marcel lowered his head.
"So Edvin did Marcel, he said, brother Karel, he said he was waiting for his brother to come to the awards show. If you don't come and try to avoid her, she says.... Euuu he said..." Marcel paused his remark making Clein curious.
"say what? If you talk, don't half!" Clein said impatiently.
"He said, he said big brother coward!" Added Marcel.
Clein clenched her hands, the look of her eyes turning sharp. He sat his body on the bed with a straight forward look.
"CARREL! GODDAMNIT! THAT BASTARD!" Clein's bait made Marcel rewind his body. Now Clein looks really creepy. It was like he was ready to prey on everyone who was near him.
"There must be a reason behind this! He must have been on purpose! Okay, let's see what game you're going to play, Karel!" Monologue Clein.
Clein looked at Marcel's frightened face. He immediately changed his expression as before. Clein tried to calm down in front of her sister. Should it remain that way, he should be able to put aside his anger in order for his sister to feel comfortable.
"Sister is coming! But Brother will bring some people from the big brother community to attend there!"
Hearing that Marcel smiled happily.
"Order eleven tickets for eleven people including brother. Tell the organizer of the event to prepare a translator during the interview period. Brother's English is very bad, so you need a translator!"
"Okay, ready brother!" Marcel nodded with excitement. He could not hide his happiness. It turned out that it worked and hopefully both Clein and Karel will make up and get closer, Marcel thought. Marcel rushed out of Clein's room. He would carry out all his brother's orders and tell Edvin the happy news.
