My Big Brother and His Little Sister

Cousin's Visit

My cousin was here!!!!
Yup, CC was seriously coming to visit us. I thought mom was kidding saying about it but it turned out, I really had him visiting us.

Unfortunately, CC didn't have much time and only spent three nights here.

No matter how short it was. I was so glad one of my relatives came. It's been a while since the last time I met one of them.

It wasn't because they didn't want to give us a visit. It's because all of my uncles, aunts and cousins are living in different places. They are spread all over Indonesia and they have their own business to care.

Back to CC.
It's my brother who picked him up from the airport.
He didn't bring much clothes but he brought much souvenirs for mom, AB and me.
Poor CC. I wondered how he could carry them by himself before finally AB arrived.
I bet it's his parents who told him to take them. But since I got a lot, I won't complain. Haha. XD

CC is almost as tall as my brother now. And still, I'm the shortest one.
He easily picked me up from the ground when he gave me a hug, making me automatically punch him after that. Obviously, it didn't hurt him at all, he patted my head and smirked in annoying way.
"Hey, Naya! You haven't gained an inch since the last time we met!"

He must be kidding. The last time he meant was four or five years ago. In grandma's house. There's no way I didn't grow up a few inches these years.

Right?? 😓😓

The first thing CC did after we all were sitting in the living room was calling his parents, informing them that he had arrived safely.
To prove it, CC gave the phone to my mom, letting her talk to his parents.

Hahaha. He must have had done something in the past that it made difficult for my uncle and aunt to trust him. 😁😁😁

The thing I realized immediately from CC was that he was no longer a cocky person. Maybe CC now doesn’t suit him anymore. Well, until I could figure out the best nickname for him, let's just stay with CC.

My cousin slept with AB in the hall of hobbies.
There's more space there for him than sleeping inside AB's room.
But instead of sleeping, the three of us spent almost the whole night talking and almost didn't notice the clock had hit four AM.

The next day, AB and I had responsibility to bring CC around our town. We used mom's car.
In my town, there's not much options but we do have a beautiful bridge and most of the visitors take this place as their destination. So we took pictures, ate roasted corn, went to buy some souvenirs for CC to bring with him back, and brought him to a restaurant specially serving original cuisine from our island.
I have to tell you, here we have a great dish with noodles as the main ingredient. For the sauce, it was made from grinded peanuts, red sugar and the other ingredients needed. Served with a boiled egg, some bean sprouts and a chopped chili if you like it spicy.
It's a yum!!!!! XD

When we arrived home that day, it's almost nine pm already.
Honestly, we were shocked. We left the house around ten AM that morning, spending our time outside for almost twelve hours.
A new record for myself.
It didn't feel exhausting at first but I felt aches in my muscles right after we got home.
And no more talking that night. We went straight to the bed and slept. XD

The next day agenda was continuing yesterday's journey.
It was visiting the main town. Like the biggest mall in here, the main park and a small amusement park our city had.
I actually had no interest to leave home that day, I had planned to take more rest.
But AB kept asking me to come while CC tried dragging me along, pulling my hand. When I stated firmly that I didn't want to come, both of them made faces that crossed a huge disappointment and I suddenly felt sorry and guilty for them.

Dang them!!!!!

In the end, I found myself participating too.
Sometimes I think I was too weak. 😭😭😭😭😭

We didn't come home too late that night and decided to watch movies together in the living room.
CC and I voted for IT. You know, the horror movie with the clown and red balloon. But my brother wanted to watch the other movie.
Of course he didn't want to watch IT. He believed in ghosts. XD
But..... Two versus one. We won and we watched it.

I am not that brave seeing horror movie. It kinda creeps me out too. The thing I hate about that genre is the shocking scenes that suddenly appear.

When it seems like the ghost has gone, it suddenly appears from behind.
When it looks like the character has been saved, the ghost takes him/her.
When the story finally ended, the ghost came back to life.

WHAT THE---!!!!

Still, I wanted to watch it. XD

And AB, as CC pressed play, he almost hid his face behind a pillow.
He pretended he was watching but he would pull it higher when the ghost came out.

Hahaha. My silly brother.

CC seemed realizing my brother's uncomfortable manners.
He thought it's funny though and raised the TV's volume higher, made my brother glare at him.

My cousin acted innocent and kept watching. He even slid closer to me, knowing AB probably could do something to him for making him mad.

And his instinct was right.
My brother threw him a pillow.

Thank goodness it wasn't me who got hit by that.

Well, you can guess what they did next.
While I enjoyed the movie, there's a pillow fight behind me.
Pfftt...childish. XD

A/N

What do you think of CC?? He's not as cocky as before I thought.
XD

I have a plan to visit the University I wanted next week, applying there then maybe stay until I know where the test will be held.
Well, wish me luck. 😘
