Too stubborn to make Herlin and Aland can't believe all the actions Brian wants, especially he is just a child.
"Do you see how your son is, Mr Aland? Then now it's impossible for us to sleep in the room, right?“ herlin asked in confusion.
"I know if Brian's attitude has gone too far, but please understand a little, Herlin. Nothing will happen anyway, and I myself will sleep in bed from you. We can share the bolster or I'll sleep on the couch" Aland said from his little heart wanting it.
"Come, Sir. So, you agree with Brian's request? Wah ... deservedly his attitude is very irresistible, it must be because you have spoiled him too often."
"Herlin, if you don't want to, it's okay. Then why should I vilify my son? He's so for having a reason not to be alone. It's your fault who lied to her. If a child is lied to, he will not know what is right and wrong. After all, we had even exchanged saliva in the car that night. So please, don't pretend like we're never that close, because the kiss is proof" Aland quickly denied.
"You are absolutely right, Mr. Aland. It's just that I didn't think at all that I should room with you, sir, and if I refused. Then your son will make that threat. He just got out of the hospital."
"Of course, Herlin. Brian will definitely rebel even though I can force him to go to school, but surely he will be disturbed especially when remembering about the bullying against him by his friends. Now come on, if you don't want to, it's okay. However, persuade Brian, because I myself am very sure. He will not be persuaded easily" explained Aland.
Making Herlin had absolutely no other choice but to obey in the foolish play done by the little boy.
"Alright I agree, but I ask that we do not do any closeness, sir," said Herlin slowly.
"Of course, Herlin. I can vouch for it. Yes, let me take your things to my room first," Aland asked with a sweet smile.
Herlin replied with a mere nod, he followed Aland away from behind. In contrast to Aland who was secretly still trying to hold back his laughter.
"My son is very clever. To keep his father from being lonely, he gave good advice. Papa's proud of you, Brian. Want to get a new mama, of course, have to sacrifice a lot first, son," inner Aland who was happy.
Putting all of Herlin's belongings together in his closet, it stupefied Herlin.
"Loh, Sir? I'm only here for a few days, not forever. Then why did all my stuff get put in there? Leave it in the suitcase."
"It's okay, Herlin. It would be better inside here so as not to get dusty. Anyway, if it's done, you can pack it up again, and I'll definitely help you."
"Yes well." Herlin could only step down while watching Aland do his own job.
Sitting in silence as Aland continues to busy himself, but Herlin's gaze is always fixed on his phone.
"There's absolutely no notification from you, Ben. You still misunderstand me. It would be better to take Brian to his new school, I'll just meet you right away" Herlin's inner self with greater hope.
His daydream came to a realization when suddenly his phone rang. Herlin quickly replied, hoping that it would be from Benny. But it turns out that his estimate was wrong.
"What's up, Auntie?"
"Where are you, Herlin? Now your sister can go home. The doctor called me, and told me he could be treated on the street. I can't bring it home alone because I have a lot of work to do."
"Alright, Tan. I'll take care of it later."
"Yes, then, Aunt hang up, yeah."
"What did Rere say?" aland suddenly sat down next to him.
"Tell me that Leony is home-careable, and I have to pick him up now, Mr. Aland. But the thing is, there's no way my sick sister would have to be home alone. Although you can hire a nurse, you still need supervision. Should I just go home from here, sir? Maybe Brian can understand knowing this."
“Eh no need, Herlin. We can pick up Leony to stay here too. Especially here is Aunt Lena who will always stay at home, and later I can hire the nurses you want. It'll be easier for you to reach out between your sister and Brian, won't it?" aland's advice is still hoping that his intentions are not delayed.
"But, Sir. Later there is Aunt Lena there is more and more hassle. He also has to babysit Brian."
"Calm down, Herlin. With money we can pay for his services more, and you don't have to worry about that. Yeah, well, we better get to the hospital now. Don't let Leony wait too long."
"Wait a minute, Mr. Aland. Then what should we say to Leony later if he asks about our closeness? Especially when she sees me in the room with you, sir?" herlin asked while holding Aland's hand suddenly.
"Um .. Maybe we can be a pretend husband and wife. I guess that's not too complicated, is it? I know if you don't want your sister to know this lie, but there's no other way. Once everything's safe, you can tell Leony everything about us. How, Herlin?"
"What's? Mr Aland, how could it be? Pretending to be like husband and wife is very unlikely, especially we do not have a single photo of the memory of the wedding dress. I think it's a very complicated thing."
"Herlin, trust me that it's not complicated. I'm pretty sure this won't continue for months or years. Because we're just regular friends. Come, Herlin. There is no other way, but if you want to be honest, just cross it. I'm okay with all that, too."
The silly idea that Aland was struggling with made him very excited, but not with Herlin who was silent in silence.
Despite this, Aland tried to continue persuading until he clasped Herlin's hand tightly. "Trust me, Herlin. I will support whatever your decision is. However, if I think the best is indeed we should pretend to lie now. So that your sister does not suspect and make things messy. Especially with Brian, he'd be very unacceptable if you left here too soon."
"Sir, I still can't be sure of this decision."
"Keep assured that you are sure of all this, Herlin. I told you I'd be with you, right? What else should you be afraid of now? Come, Herlin. We can lie for the good of both of us" forced Aland constantly.
