Chapter 5 I don't need you

“Elle, Point of View”

"What are you doing here?" He asked. I started to get nervous and thought about what I would say to her. I can't say I came here because I'm concerned about you Harris. But, I’m really worried about him, even if I deny it.

None of my own swallowed me before speaking. "I'm worried about you," I said softly. But, maybe enough for him to hear it clearly. I heard its weak laugh and I seemed to be joking.

"Worried? Don't fool me, Elle. I'm sure, you're happy. ”He said sarcastically, I couldn’t speak because I was worried that it would hurt for him what happened. I will only understand him because he is the most victimized here.

“Harris, I think, you need sleep right now. You're drunk, "I said. I was about to approach him to take the beer bottle in his hand but he suddenly avoided it...

"Get out!" it says seriously to me. I sighed because of his attitude, I admit that I was new to his treatment of me. Maybe I went crazy because I consented to the marriage our parents wanted. Maybe I became a desperate woman because I no longer refused what our parents wanted.

“Harris, if you're sad I'm just here. I'm here ... "I stopped what I was about to say when he suddenly spoke.

"I don't need you, Elle. Please, get out!" He said and passed me. He was only an inch away from me when it suddenly fell so I hurried to go to him.

“Don't touch me! Get out! ”He said and forced himself to stand. I didn't listen and I would have supported him when he pushed me. I sat on the floor because of the force of his push on me.

"Get out! Because you won't get anything out of me, Elle! No matter how hard you try, I won't marry you!" He said and slowly walked towards the living room. I could do nothing but stand up and follow him into the living room.

I just stopped walking as Harris sat down on the single couch. He looked up and seemed to be carrying the world's problems. I remained standing from behind him, two meter away from me.

Maybe he didn’t know I was follow to him here in the living room.

"I love you, Serah." I heard him say. He really loved Serah even though he just cheated on him. If I was maybe in Serah’s position maybe I would regret it because I wasted someone I loved so much. But, that is unlikely to happen. She was lucky with Harris but, I have no right to judge him.

"Please, come back to me!" I can feel the pain Harris feels. If I could just make him happy I would I can't afford to see him like this. I love him, what will happen to Harris and me when we get married.

It bent down and I heard her little sob. “I love you, Serah. I can't let you go, ”he cried.

I was shocked when he suddenly threw a bottle of beer at the wall causing it to break.

“I kill you, Darrell! ”He said angrily and tried to stand up as he sat down again. He did not get up and lay down on his seat.

Only light that comes from outside gives light to the living room. It's like I don't need to stay standing. Just a few minutes ago I noticed Harris's deep breathing signals that it was asleep. It was only then that I decided to approach it to fix the lying down.

When I got close to him I bent down to adjust the inclination of his head on the headboard of his couch so that he would not faint and sleep comfortably.

When, I was sure he would be comfortable in his sleep, I knelt down so Harris and I could be equal. I could see the tired look on his face accompanied by excessive intoxication. None of my own raised my hand to caress his face. I just gently touched his skin with my hand because I was afraid he would wake up and drive me away again.

"Everything will be fine Harris," I said softly. As I watched his gentle face someone suddenly spoke from behind me as I stood up. I looked at the source of that voice and saw Harris’s youngest sister Stella. She was wearing pajamas and looked like she was just going to sleep.

It approached me, so I arranged for us. Stella and I are also close but, we rarely get together because she is already busy being a college student.

I don’t know if she saw me caress the face of his brother who was sound asleep. If she noticed that, it would be embarrassing because I have no right to touch his brother's face.

“Oh! Why are you still awake?" I was the first to speak.

Sh looked at his older brother Harris before she turned to me. "I just remember my older brother, sister Elle. He was very angry earlier when he found out about the announcement between Serah and Darell," she said.

I sighed. “Stella, let's not think about Serah and Darell first. Your older brother is the one we should support, he is devastated because of what Serah did, ”I said.

“I know that sister but, I don't understand why she was able to fool her older brother. ” she said.

I helped him sit on the other couch, I did the same. I sat beside him.

"Even, I'm confused why Serah did that but, it just so happened that we couldn't do anything." I said and turned to Harris who was sound asleep.

“By the way, mommy tell me that you and my brother are getting married. That's true? I didn’t know what to say to him. Will I answer him "Yes, we are getting married."

Meanwhile, only arranged marriage.

“Our parents just agreed to marry me to your older brother. ”I clarified to her, I know Stella. She voted for me to be the girlfriend of his older brother. But, the problem is Harris doesn't love me because he loves Serah ...

“Even if my older brother doesn't love you, Ate Elle. I am still happy because my dreams of marrying my older brother Harris will come true, ”she said and I seemed very eager to marry his older brother.

“Stella, what you have in mind is unlikely to happen. Obviously he doesn't love me and I'm the only one fooling around even though I know he will never love me, ”I said calmly.

"You don't have to worry because you and brother  are getting married next month," she said. There was a faint smile on Stella's perfect lips.

"And they can mommy make your wedding easier," she said with a smile. It was obvious on his face that he was excited about his older brother and I's upcoming wedding. In fact, I still have less than a month to think. I don't want to waste the opportunity to be a virgin, I still have a lot to do as a virgin. If our marriage is made easier, I will not be able to sleep in Cindy's house. And when Harris and I are married, we will be separated and together under one roof.

"Hey!"

I was back in the present when Stella touched me. "Why are you silent sister, is there a problem?" Its a worried question.

“I'm fine, Stella. I was just thinking, ”I said.

"What are you thinking?" She asked and it was as if I was keeping something secret because of the kind of questions she was asking me.

"Don't tell me, you're thinking about your honeymoon with my brother. " Men's eyes say it. I blushed and felt embarrassed because of the kind of thinking.

“You're wrong, Stella. It's not about your brother and I's honeymoon, ”I said.

"Don't fool me Sister, I know brother Harris is what you're thinking." She said and sighed as if she wasn't satisfied with my excuse.

“Tell me, Sis. Don't tell me that you won't marry my brother, "she said with a man's eyes.

“It's not that, I'm just wondering if your brother and I will continue our marriage. I can't enjoy being a virgin, ”I said. I heard it laugh so softly that I wondered.

She laughed. “ I still wonder what you're thinking. Don't worry, you'll enjoy  with my brother. ” With that said, I was just swayed by the senses.

“Just go to sleep, Stella. ”I said

“I was just kidding, Sis. Wait for me here, I'll just get my brother's blanket."She said and quickly left. I sighed a few times, this is the only place I can sleep. Our gate to the house is definitely locked because it's to late.
