From Brother to Mother (Om Dik )
Answers

Like yesterday, humans will not stop faced with various activities. Like work, which is indeed all humans, especially adults, are obliged to do so in order to meet the demands of life.

Dika has been in the factory since this morning. But even though his body was with him, his mind went flying somewhere.

Yanto, the personal assistant plus a confidant Dika also joined Dika again. The man who was almost the same age as Dika felt that there was something different in his boss this morning. He knew because since then he was busy blabbering about the development of new products, but the boss was like not hearing what he explained.

" Bang, why are you healthy ? " ask Dika

" Eh Yes, what's wrong Yan ? " Rather than answering, Dika asked back, his mind had just merged into his body at this moment.

" Bang Dika like her is still unwell? want to go home now ? " the bargain Yanto

" No Yan, I'm better off "refuse Dika

Yanto took a deep breath, If his boss has shown this style, it means that his boss is thinking about something.

" Is there something Bang ? " ask Yanto to make sure

And the same, he took a very heavy breath into his nose.

" Well, there's "the answer

" Want to tell a story ? "

Yanto suggested that they look for a comfortable seat, and away from the noise.

And here is the assistant and the boss, in a coffee shop located behind the factory, still one area with the factory

" What problem is it ? " ask Yanto

" It doesn't matter exactly "reply

" Then ? "

" It's about Delia "

" Delia ? " Yanto made sure

" Sister's foster son, right ? " again Yanti made sure, and Dika nodded

" What happened to Delia Bang ? " ask Yanto again

" Delia worried about Abang, meaning she began to worry about the fate of Abang "answered Dika, who honestly actually Yanto was still confused

" Meaning ? "

" Yesterday my brother was sick, Delia was the one who took care of my brother "

Dika then told how painstaking Delia was when she learned of her unhealthy condition.

Dika also told me about what she heard when Delia came out of her room.

Well, at that time Dika heard all the turmoil of Delia for him, At that time Dika had not had time to fall asleep, Delia also did not demand the door tightly, so that the monologue Delia in front of her room she could hear clearly. The girl who cares about her life later certainly makes Dika touched.

Yanto nodded his head. He understood how the feeling now felt by Dika. And he felt very sorry.

" What do you think I should do Yan ? Gradually Delia will definitely know about my condition ? " tanya Dika looks troubled

" So you'd better be honest "Yanto made a suggestion

" What ? there's no way Yan, who is there later he won't be comfortable living with an abnormal person like me, and I don't want that to happen" Dika refused

" Then how is Bang? there is no way Abang pura married, and if Abang is not honest, then Delia will find out for herself later. " Yanto explained his opinion, which made Dika think.

" Bang, so far what I've seen is Delia's a kind and loving girl. The proof is that he thought about the fate of Brother later, and I'm sure Delia can accept the condition of Brother, after all it is not the will of Brother who wants to be like this right ? " continue Yanto again

" How can you be sure that Delia will understand my condition? " ask Dika

" I'm sure Bang, and we'll know after Brother tells the truth. After all, it's good to explain it now, don't let Delia think too much about the household life of Brother, until she forgets her own future. Even though Delia is an adult Bang, she will be picked up with her destiny. Don't let because thinking about Abang and Misha, Delia doesn't want to get married, don't think it's still a long time, but think about it in the future "

Dika felt that what Yanto explained made a lot of sense. And will probably try to follow the advice of Yanto.

At night Delia was doing chores in the back garden. He desperately needed fresh air, so he decided to do the task outside his room.

He entered the girl's room. He found no one inside, Dika looked for him and asked the whereabouts of the girl to one of the aunts at home and the aunt said that Delia was in the back garden.

Dika also rushed there.

Arriving at the back garden, Delia did not pay much attention to his arrival. Because the girl was busy with a thick printed book in her hands.not to forget the written book and pen in front of her. Admittedly, if Delia was such a diligent girl.

" Are you busy ? "

Delia noticed someone's arrival as she heard a familiar voice

" Eh, Om Dika.... Udah kok, the task is done Delia side reread, what is it ?

" What is Om ? "

Delia moved the books on the table and arranged them neatly. Then let Dika sit beside her.

After Dika sat down comfortably. And he felt it was the right time, though, no one will disturb their conversation because aunt who works in their house has rested while Misha and Mommy are sleeping in one room together.

" It's about Om's personal life, and I think it's time you found out about it "

Delia did not respond or ask, she was mature enough to interpret the present situation, and right now all she had to do was hear what Om Dika said later without having to interrupt it.

" You must have always wondered why Om has no wife and instead has one daughter that you yourself know that my son is the child that I adopted. You must also be wondering why I never brought a girl home, to be introduced as a special person. And you must be confused why I feel at home until not married all this time "

Delia just nodded, the end of what she asked from the beginning can be answered also today.

" We are family anyway, and I want to be open to you. And maybe this confession of mine will make you feel a little safe. Because our relationship is just a relative not bound by blood relations "

Dika took his breath as deep as possible that it was difficult to channel air into his lungs .

" I'm a man who has no interest in any woman, so I don't want to have a wife "

Delia rounded her eyes and even her mouth was slightly open. Of course the recognition of Om Dika at this time was a difficult thing he understood by his mind. However, he never thought in the slightest if Om Dika chose a disorder in liking the opposite sex. What he had in mind all this time was that Om Dika was single because maybe he had been traumatized by women in his past.

But what he heard this time really made him shocked and managed to make him hang.

" What is , so what does Om mean ?

" Yes Delia, Om does not like women, in the sense that Om is a same-sex person "

For whatever time it is now for the first time Dika is ashamed of himself, for claiming to have a personality disorder. And for the first time too, he is ashamed of someone, usually he will not care about the views of others about him.

but now he was suddenly afraid, afraid that Delia would be uncomfortable and chose not to stay in this house again.

" Honestly I don't believe Om" said Delia doubtfully

" Believe it or not, that's the fact Delia, Om is not normal "Dika explains her abnormality once again.

Delia's eyes were already glazed over, for some reason she became very sad to know this reality.

" So Om's only been in a relationship with men ? " ask Delia

Dika shook quickly

" Oh no Delia, for that one lifetime Om never did her. Although sometimes Om is interested in the man Om meets outside, but Om always keeps the boundaries. For in any case Om will not violate the norms and teachings of our religion "

Dika said honestly, all this time he had been very protective of his purity.

" So all this time Om held him ? "

" Well, Om won't do anything stupid that would later hurt Om himself "

For this one, Delia felt so subdued, even though she now knew the truth, how Om Dika's condition, there was at least one thing that made her admiration for the adult man was not reduced. That is the strong Om Dika.

" So Delia, did after you found out about this, you become resentful or might want to leave this house ? "

Dika actually did not want to question this. But he must know what the girl is thinking now.

Delia smiled so gently

" Why do you ask like that? "

" For Om is afraid that you will become uncomfortable" said Dika. He looks so sad

" Whatever Om Dika's condition, I will not leave Om Dika or this house. Om Dika is a surrogate parent of my Father and Mother, When I was down and completely alone, Om Dika brought me here, met Mommy and met Misha. Om give me a new family. How can I leave Om Dika who is already this good to me ? "

I was so happy to hear Delia's answer. Yanto was right, Delia was a kind and loving girl.

" Delia, can Om hold you ? "

For a moment Delia was transfixed.This was the first time Om Dika asked to hug her during her months-long stay together.

" Of course I can "

Dika stretched out her hand and Delia went into his arms. Very comfortable and somehow Delia did not want to move from there.

" Thank you for accepting Om Delia's condition" muttered Dika

" Thank you, too, for believing in Delia. "

If Dika feels comfortable with this hug but he is still biased. Unlike Delia, in addition to feeling comfortable, the girl also felt her heart beating faster than usual.
