Because Only That

" Capucinno, as I promised" Elin said as she placed a glass of hot capucinno on the table, "Thank you" replied Daniel smilingly looking at Elin , and for the umpteenth time Elin's heart was pounding again at the sight of the sweet smile from Daniel's face, and soon he turned his gaze away .

" Ah I am so full" said Meili who was sitting on the sofa with her hands stroking her stomach which looked distended from fullness.

Daniel glanced at Meili by shaking his head.

" You're right like the guy who hasn't eaten in a month Meili" Daniel said, but with his eyes fixed on his phone screen.

" Foolish fool, where anyone can live if not eat a month "said Meili annoyed at Daniel who said it, Elin smiled at the behavior of the brothers in front of him.

" oh yeah meil, did you know that Mike also lives here ? " said Elin opened the conversation, Daniel immediately raised his head "Do you know Mike too?  " asked Daniel, but with a cold look on his face, Elin nodded slowly in confusion at the change in Daniel's face .

" Sunnguh, I did not know lin , nor did he ever tell me "said Meili who did not realize that the situation had suddenly become cold, "emm.. I know because we had met before I went back to Indonesia, "Exposed Elin as she occasionally glanced at Daniel .

" Do you know brother? , it turns out Mike moved to New York , and the school is in the same place as us , and I just found out after we met on campus " meili said to Daniel.

Daniel still kept silent with his jaw hardened as the two women in front of him kept telling him about Mike , who was none other than his own cousin.

" What he wants again "murmed Daniel with the tip of his lips.

" Your capucinnom is almost cold, just finish it off and don't let me down" said Elin, turning Daniel away from a cold face 'I'm sorry " he said with a forced smile on Elin and immediately picked up a capucinno glass and drank it to the end, "I might disappoint you " daniel said, putting the empty glass back on the table.

" Rest" said Daniel softly to Elin, "yes later, my body is not so tired" explained Elin.

" Meil, we should go home, Elin should rest immediately "take Daniel to his sister "god I'm sorry, I forgot that you just came home from a long trip " said Meili who felt guilty

" I'm really fine what meil , your brother is too much "

" No no, he's right, you have to take a break" said Meili as he took his bag.

" You're okay by yourself ? " ask Daniel and Elin nods her head.

" Call me if you want something and see you tomorrow "meili's goodbye while kissing Elin's cheek and then walk towards the door "bye Meili" Elin smiled back.

" I'm sorry to bother you, and thank you for the delicious capucinno" said Daniel and Elin again nod with a smile "and another one, if you yourself do not accept anyone here , especially if it's the man "remember Daniel , who made Elin speechless with his mouth that arrived could not argue "rest" he said without fading his smile.

" God Daniel, do you really want to go home ? " shouted Meili who was waiting at the door.

" Wait a minute Meili, and don't yell " said Daniel.

" It turns out like this if she falls in love "grily Meili is upset.

" Bye" said Daniel , who then walked after Meili who had already come out first, "remember not to accept people you do not know well " daniel said again and Elin nodded her head unconsciously.

" Bye" said Daniel once again, his mind felt so hard to leave Elin alone, especially because he had to end this meeting.

" Bye "replies Elin while closing the door to her apartment, "who she is, why she arranged for me, and why I just do it "said her, who was still standing behind the door " oh, my God, today really drove me crazy "

" Why do we have to meet here again ? "more who continue to speak for themselves.

" It seems like my body is tired and I need to get some rest before I go crazy thinking about this magical day " he said again, shaking his head to shake all the strange thoughts in his brain, and then he went back to his bedroom .

" Can I sleep in your place ? " meili asked Daniel , they were in the elevator that would take them to the main floor of the apartment ', "I wouldn't be able to rest in peace if there was you" Daniel replied.

" Please "please Meili with a deviation to his two hands .

" Mommy will find you later "

" I'd say sleep in your place" Meili replied smilingly, Daniel sighed, and let Meili do her wish.

" Remember , don't bother me "remember Daniel.

" Ready boss" replied Meili happily, then tangled in Daniel's arm.

" Oh hay Meil "replies Mike , with a slight smile on his face, but his eyes look down when he sees Daniel.

" Why don't you say 'if you also live here Mike" said Meili approaching Mike.

" emm .. I just moved Meil "obviously Mike is stiff.

" You should invite us to eat at your apartment later, yes brother " continued Meili, who then spoke to Daniel , but the man had walked first to leave him, "god , why did he go "murm Meili who became confused at the cold behavior of Daniel and Mike, not usually Daniel or Mike do not greet each other, even they look like they do not know each other .

" Mike , congratulations for your new home, emmm. I have to go "meili said hugging Mike , "thank you meil "reply Mike.

" You should invite me to celebrate "he said with a laugh before leaving Mike , and soon after Daniel was seen waiting at the door of the main lobby.

" Please Mr. " said the driver as he opened the car door for Daniel and Meili.

" What's going on? , what happened between you and Mike ? " tanya Meili who was not able to hold back her curiosity, but Daniel did not answer, even he looked like he did not care about his sister's question.

" okay, if you don't want to tell me, I'll find my own story" said Meili, who was a little upset at being ignored by Daniel.

Meili still continues to look into the face of Daniel who is still silent by staring out the car window, Daniel did not answer what happened to him and Mike, but Meili quite understand the face of his brother, '' ' he said , a face that hides disappointment.

" You better go home Meili, don't leave your own mom at home" said Daniel arrived.

" For this time I will sleep in your place, or you will go home" Meili said.

" Mommy also misses you sister "he continued by looking back at Daniel's face.

" I hate things like this, although it can no longer be the same, but I also want us who used to be" Meili said so deeply.

Daniel turned his head and saw Meili staring blankly out the window, a feeling of guilt re-emerged, although he was not the cause of all these bitter events, but left mami and Meili both , enough to make him feel guilty.

" Sir, we go home to the main house "pinta Daniel to the driver, Meili immediately turned his head and stared in disbelief at what he had just heard.

" I know you're not that hard" said Meili, who hugged Daniel's arm and leaned his head, smiling, looking at meili's behavior and with a slightly warmed heart.
