"Nanti Im carikan...", Imran menjawab. Dia masih terjegat memerhatikan aku.
"Apa lagi...pergilah cari sekarang...", perintah Mak Jah. "Malalutlah Im ni. Q masuk dan mandi nanti Mak Jah tinggalkan baju atas katil ya...."
Aku menganggukkan kepala. Aku memalingkan muka dan terpandang Imran. Dia tersenyum dan berlalu pergi.
Selepas mandi aku mengenakan kemeja putih kepunyaan Imran. Tetapi seluar trek yang di sertakan terlalu besar. Jadi aku menyarung seluar jeans yang aku pakai semalam. Setelah berpuas hati dengan penampilan aku, aku keluar dari bilik dan berjalan ke arah ruang tamu untuk mencari tas tangan. Puas aku cari tapi tak jumpa....
"You're looking for this.....", Imran rupanya and he was holding my Chanel handbag.

I went over to him, "Yes, I was actually looking for my handbag. Thank you.", I answered. I immediately dug inside the bag searching for my mobile phone. I read message after message and most of it from Abang Ngah.
"Kasyaff looking for you?", Imran asked. I smiled and looked up at him. Aku mengangguk....
"He wants to know where I've been and why I left my car at the guard house.....", I replied.
"He's a frequent visitor at your place?" I thought that question was unnecessary. Kasyaff is my brother and he can come anytime of the day he wants. I nodded.
"And that's how I know where you lived. Kasyaff gave me his address in Cyberjaya so that we can 'hangout'. He said he lives there.........with his fiance...", Imran spoke.
Aku terduduk di sofa empuk berwarna putih mendonggak memandang Imran. "Damn it, Kasyaff...!!", and I was pissed off. I stood up.
"Excuse me, I have to call my brother otherwise he'll be on his way to make a missing person report at the police station....", I excused myself and walked slowly towards the backyard.
It took me 15 minutes to explained and convinced Kasyaff I am fine barulah dia puas hati. He wants me home by noon. I turn and was about to get back inside the house when I Imran was standing right behind me all this while.
"Do I have to compete for your love, Q?", by his tone I realized Imran wants some kind of reassurance from me.
"Imran, he is my brother. And I have 2 other elder brothers. You would definitely have to compete with them....But I like you. Not a brotherly way.....", I teased him. Imran grabbed my hand and placed it around his waist, "I am not good at sharing but if it means I have to compete to get your attention, I will and I promise that to you.". Imran was firm.
Not letting him go yet, I stood closer and I felt my breast slightly brushed against him. I replied, "Imran, you have nothing to worry about.....". And for the first time I allow him to hold me in his arms. He kissed my forehead and do not want to let him go.....
Imran took a deep breath. "Can I call you sometime...?", he asked. I looked up at him and replied, "I would really love that.....". I hugged him again. Then he said, "I wish you don't have to go.....". Aku membisu di dalam pelukan Imran.
"So do I but I have things to deal with Kasyaff. He is giving the impression to people that I am engaged to him....just like how you felt...", I said.
Though Imram insisted to send me back home, I explained that it is better that I take an Uber. I am not ready to show off Imran in front of Abang Ngah. I don't know how he is going to react if he sees me with Imran. He has been spreading lies telling his friends that he is engaged to me.
"I better go in and say thank you to Mak Jah....", I told Imran and both of us went inside hand in hand. Mak Jah was in the kitchen.
"Mak Jah, Q balik dulu....terima kasih banyak-banyak...nasi goreng Mak Jah memang sedap.". Imran didn't let go of my hand. "Kalau Q datang lagi satu hari nanti, boleh Mak Jah masakkan nasi goreng yang sama?", aku bertanya.
"Insya Allah, Mak Jah akan masakkan. Nak balik dah? Imran hantarke?, Mak Jah bertanya dan memandang ke arah Imran.
"Tak, Q nak ambil Uber, dia tak mahu Im hantar pulang....", Imran menjawab dan aku dapat menangkap tona dia yang kurang berpuas hati dengan keputusan aku.
"Eh biarla Imran hantar pulang....", Mak Jah berkata.
"Tak pa Mak Jah, saya sudah banyak menyusahkan Imran dan Mak Jah.....next time ya....?", aku jawab dan melepaskan gengaman Imran.
"Ialah....jaga diri baik-baik....", aku salam dan mencium tangan Mak Jah.
"Saya minta diri dulu, Assalamualaikum....", aku meminta diri.
I turned and looked at Imran. He smiled and said, "I'm gonna miss you....". I gave him a flattering smile and raised my eye brows.
That morning he see me off in the Uber. I sat in the car and gave him one last look......I 'm falling for this guy.........
