Is There Love
Kenzhi's Shadow

The Part 15

I walked through the corridor while looking carefully at Gavin's brother. Sometimes Gavin's brother grimaces in pain, but he tries to hide it from me.

“Sister, Brother is okay?” manyworry.

“No, I'm fine,” he replied.

“But, it looks like Brother is in pain. Do we take a break?” bargained.

“No need, we go ahead. Relax, I'm fine kok.” Brother Gavin threw a smile at me. He didn't want to worry me any more.

“No. We sit for a while,” I said forcefully. Gavin just shut up and complied. We sat for a while in the corridor.

“So sure is fine?”many ensure.

“Iya, I'm fine,” she replied and smiled.

I saw Gavin's leg swell up, ”Sister's leg swells up, we need a check to the hospital.”

“It's just normal swelling really, no need to go to the hospital, later also deflated itself,” refused.

“Yakin?” many ensure. Brother Gavin did not answer him, he just nodded.

“But Brother, we need to make sure if it's okay.” I don't feel like I can see it.

“No, it's better. Can we go home now?” tanyakanya.

“Ya alright.” I helped Gavin's brother stand up, I saw Gavin grimacing in pain.

“Aaaa.” Gavin groaned in pain as he started walking.

“Sister, Brother is okay?” manya panic.

“No, no. I'm fine,” she replied as she grimaced with pain.

“We go to the hospital now, I beg you, do not refuse.” I looked at my pity, Brother Gavin.

“If not dealt with immediately, fear later more severe,” continued me.

Brother Gavin sighed, “Yes, alright. I want to,”.

Long story short, I took a taxi with Gavin. Besides because I can't drive a car, Gavin didn't bring him either. About twenty minutes drive, finally arrived at the hospital. I sat in the long chair of the waiting room while Gavin's brother was being examined by a doctor. My heart feels pounding\-thump right now. Exactly when I was waiting for Kenzhi to be examined by a doctor for a broken ankle. At that time, I almost cried, but fortunately I could control my tears not to come out.

Suddenly, the door of my front room sat open, and I saw a student come out while pushing a wheelchair occupied by a man wearing a martial uniform.

“Makanya, tomorrow-tomorrow if not ready to compete do not need to come, so broken this is right,” the student's nag. Apparently the man's right leg was broken, and had to use a wheelchair.

“Tadi just accident. I'm strong, so a wound like this is just a small thing,” said the man in self-defense.

“Eleh. Little thing but kok screaming in pain,” taunted the schoolgirl.

“Of course I'll scream, that's all I can do to get you to pay attention to me. What else can I do? If I wasn't sick, you'd still be as indifferent to me as ever. Right no?” The man looked at the student behind him with a big smile.

“If so why? Is it necessary, I treat you like a child? Who am I? I'm not your mother.” There was an annoyed tone from that sideways remark.

“Yes, it wasn't, but now you're going to be my mother. My parents are abroad, I live alone, so. you will take care of me,” said the man with PD.

“Aish. Basic mode.” The student patted hard on the man's right shoulder, but the man chuckled instead. I kept watching him, until they were far away from me. My tears did not feel dripping, my body was shaking as well. When I saw the driven man earlier, I was like looking at Kenzhi. His style of speech was very similar to Kenzhi's, and his last dialogue to the student was almost the same as Kenzhi had told me when he broke a bone.

“Kenzhi.” I was muttering very slowly.

‘Honestly, I miss you so much. But, I don't know where you are now, my inner’. I took a deep breath, then I quickly wiped away the tears that were soaking down my cheeks.

“Ryn.” I looked back when I heard my name called.

“Kak Gavin.” I saw Brother Gavin standing in front of the entrance with one side on the support crutches. I got up from my seat and approached Gavin.

“How Brother? Is it okay?” my many.

“It's okay. Soon well, I boiled medicine first,” he said, and I nodded. I drove him to get medicine.

*****

Long story short, after redeeming the medicine, I drove Mr. Gavin home in a taxi.

“Thanks for driving me,” said Kaka Gavin started the conversation.

“So... That's why you helped me? If I don't help you, then... You won't take me home?” Gavin's gaze, which had been straight ahead, now turned to look at me. I was surprised to hear Gavin's words, it seemed like I was speaking wrong earlier.

“No, that's not what I meant. Please, don't get me wrong..” I tried to explain, afraid that later Gavin misunderstood.

“I'm kidding, don't take it seriously.” Gavin looked at me with a smile. In my heart I am grateful, Brother Gavin did not misunderstand me.

“Ya, okay. No will,” reply me with a smile.

*****

Arriving in front of Gavin's house, I rushed down with Gavin, then paid for a taxi.

“Thank you sir,” I said while smiling at the taxi driver's father.

“Iya, equally,” the answer then passed.

“Yuk in,” take sister Gavin.

“Iya,” I replied briefly then nodded. I held onto Gavin's left arm, leading him on a slow walk. Even though I was wearing a support stick, but it was still unstable, and I also could not bear to let it run by myself. When he got to the door, Gavin stopped his steps.

“ Wait a minute,” he said then took something out of his pants pocket. It turned out that he took the keys of the house, and he quickly opened the door of his locked house.

“Come in,” take her, and I nod.

“Sorry yes, if it looks messy. Today aunty is off, so the house has not been able to neaten,” he said.

“Iya, relax,”. I drove him to his room for a break. Fortunately, his room was downstairs, so there was no need to have trouble climbing the stairs. When I went inside, I was fascinated to see the contents of Gavin's room. The room was so big, it was like twice the size of my room. Din there is a glass cabinet containing trophies and medals, there is also a championship certificate. Next to it was a bookcase of modest size, then there was a piano in the right corner of the room facing the bed. On the wall of the room is also attached to many photos that decorate the room. There was a photo of Gavin with his friends. Then a photo with his family, and a photo of his childhood. From toddlers, to the already large ones there are. But, to my attention, there was a photo of Gavin's brother with a woman who was both wearing Junior High School uniforms. They smile and look very happy.

I grabbed Gavin's brother and helped him sit on his bed. Actually, this was my second experience of going into the room of a man who was not a brother after Kenzhi. Yes, Kenzhi. Just him, the man I once walked into his room. In the past, I used to go to his house when Kezhi broke a bone. In fact, I stayed there for a few days. In fact, in the hospital I've been seeing him every day. At first I refused to stay at Kenzhi's house, but she kept pushing me, and she allowed it. Plus, he persuaded Daffa and Sasa to stay the night at his house, and both agreed. Yes, I finally resigned, I no longer have the resources to refuse it. In my heart, I really don't want to refuse. I also could not bear to see his condition at that time. It's been battered, broken bones and legs. Moreover, her parents were also not by her side, she only lived alone in Indonesia. The reason is short, just want to be independent. But, I also have prestige for my mother's taste. I don't want to get carried away with feeling deeper, as I get closer to her.

“Broad Brother room well,” I said admiring.

“Yes that. I used to deliberately ask for a spacious one, in order to accommodate a lot of my stuff. After all, the view of the space also looks more comfortable,” he said.

“That's Brother's piano?” manya curious.

“Iya. The piano is a precious memory for me. My dad bought it when I was in Elementary School. I used to play the piano with my childhood friends. He came here almost every day, just to play the piano. It feels funny indeed, if you remember it.” A small smile fell on Gavin's lips, but there was a stroke of sadness on his face. I was wrong to ask, I felt bad.

“Sorry, I didn't mean to remind him.” I'm apologizing.

“Why apologize? Even if you don't remind her, I always remember it myself. He will always remember me through my room. This is where the sweet memories with him are stored. And, I will always look after him until anytime,” explained brother Gavin smiled little.

Suddenly I felt my stomach hurt, and after a few seconds it sounded, gave a code asking for food.

‘Aduh, this shy stomach, why sounds now,’ my inner.

“You hungry huh?” ask brother Gavin. Both of my cheeks instantly flushed when I heard Gavin's feet question.

“Sorry yeah, because of me you get hungry like this,” he continued.

I smiled shyly, “No brother, just relax. Besides, I'm not so hungry.”

“Ya already, wait a minute. I'll order food, what do you want to eat?” Gavin grabbed his phone and opened the Go Food app.

“I... i...” I did not finish saying, my attention was distracted by the sound of a satay seller bell from outside, followed by the sound of a satay mamang yelling at him.

“Mang Dodot,” said brother Gavin half-cried when he saw the seller sate passing beside his house. Without a second thought, Gavin opened the window next to his bed.

“Mang, buy the satellite,” Shout brother Gavin hard. Mang Dodot the satay seller stopped the push of his satellite cart when he heard the screams of Gavin's brother.

“How Much Den?” yelled Dodot mang who was no less loud than Gavin's brother.

“You want satay no? Delicious time,” bargain brother Gavin. I was silent for a moment, turning my brain to think.

“Ya alright. I want to,” I replied. Well, than I would starve, and it wouldn't be nice if I asked Mr. Gavin to buy some order food.

“Two Mang, just wrap,” said Kak Gavin while lifting his middle fingers.

“OK, ready. Wait a minute,” he said with a big smile. Mang Dodot began to burn the satellite, and the smell of satay quickly burst into my nose. Emm, the typical aroma of the satellite alone is very fragrant, let alone the taste. From that scent, I could immediately imagine how the satuya taste, it must be very good.

“Not the aroma?” ask brother Gavin.

“Iya,” my answer is short.

“Mang Dodot it has been my subscription since childhood. The taste of the satellite is very different from the others, and in fact, the Dodot satay mang became one of my faforitku foods. You won't regret it if you eat the Dodot.” manga Gavin's face looks very convincing.
