My Boyfriend Is An Alien
Episode 93: Bara-Cita

Alma came out of her room and took Bara to the living room, when she had just finished her bookkeeping duties. And was tidying books and stationery into a buttoned-up plastic folder, then putting them in a sideboard cabinet.

Bara took some of his toys from the toy storage box. And put out rubics and puzzles to show Alma.

" Look at Brother.... Bara can complete this rubik within 5 seconds". Bara wanted to show his ability to his brother.

" really? try now brother set the time in hp brother, and bara began to finish the rubik, really 5 seconds, or just lie with brother", Alma deliberately challenged Bara, Bara, he knew his sister was indeed very skilled at doing things.

If Bara is able to finish in 5 seconds, Alma already intends to give Bara a new toy gift that can continue to hone his hand and brain skills.

" We start yes 1...2...3...., start !".

Trek..track.......track....

" Finished!", Bara's remark made Alma's hand reflex stop the stop watch on his phone.

Alma saw, not even 5 seconds, only 4 seconds less.

" Wooow cool brother sister who handsome...., okay then brother want to keep the promise of the brother before".

" What promise?, didn't you make any promises?".

" Sister made a promise in his heart, if coal is able, will you buy another new toy for Bara, Bara want you to buy what toys?".

Bara's expression immediately excited, "Can Bara really ask for a new toy?".

" May dong, yesterday my brother got the coaching money again because he won the race. So you can buy new toys".

Bara seems to think about buying what toys, because Alma and Akio have bought him many toys. Even up to the toys that are not owned by his other friends, already Bara has.

" What if Bara asked him not to be a toy?. Toys from my sister are a lot".

" If not a toy, what would Bara buy?".

Akio who had since observed them while standing in front of Alma's room approached. But remain silent and witness the familiarity of the two brothers.

" Bara wants... Bara bought a laptop, Bara yesterday saw Dino had a new laptop, and Dino showed a very cool game".

" No !". Alma immediately rejected Bara's wishes, "Kat Alma does not want you addicted to online games like children today ". Alma did not want his sister to be lazy to learn because playing online games, but it can also damage the health of his eyes.

" No to playing online games Brother, Bara wants to learn about IT, and become a cyber security*".

Alma until gawking at the answer of her 8-year-old sister. Where does Bara know about cyber security, and how Bara can be interested in IT.

" Where do you know about it all?", Alma's eyes radiated a glint of suspicion.

Highlight Bara's eyes pointed towards Akio.

"Sister Akio, I've seen Akio fiddling with the computer while Bara was staying at his sister's house, when Bara asked, Akio said he was protecting his personal data on the computer from cyber crime attacks".

" That's when Bara saw Akio's brother was very cool, and Bara also wanted to look cool when he grew up by messing with computers and becoming an IT expert like Akio's brother at that time".

Alma immediately glanced towards Akio with a look as if holding her account. In fact, Alma prefers his sister to work like people in general, whether to work in the health sector, as a teacher, as a law enforcement officer, or a businessman.

Bara did not dare to whine, because although still a child, Bara classified as a submissive child. If given will be received, otherwise it will not force.

Akio who saw the warmth of the two brothers turned a little stiffened and finally approached and sat beside Bara, "If Alma did not want to buy a laptop for Bara, he said, let Akio's brother buy him a laptop, how?".

" Is it true?", Bara looked at Akio, but then looked at Alma with fear.

Akio had time to look into the innocent eyes of Bara, and in his heart and mind it was true that he really wanted to become an IT expert, he said, not asking for a laptop just to play online games like most children today.

" Calm down, Alma also agrees that Bara really wants to learn IT science seriously".

" How about tomorrow Bara go for a walk together with Akio's brother, because tomorrow Alma there is an event with his friends. We're looking for a laptop as Bara wants it".

Bara looks happier with Akio's invitation.

" Can Bara go with Akio, Ma'am?", now Akio looks at Maemunah for approval.

" Of course I can".

" Because tomorrow Bara wants to go for a walk with Akio, so now Bara sleeps early, so tomorrow the wake is not bad luck". Maemunah guided Bara to enter her room.

After accompanying the embers to sleep, Maemunah came out and joined Alma and Akio who were seen arguing about the laptop earlier.

" It's not that I'm defending any of you, it's just that I see that Bara is really intent on his own. I think being an IT expert does not hurt, he can help maintain data in government offices, in banks, even in companies. he can work anywhere at will".

" Rather than being a TNI who served outside the area, or became a doctor or civil servant who was placed far from here, the mother would prefer if Akio became an IT expert, it is better, because he can work from home, even if he can establish his own company"

Akio smiled with his mother's growing knowledge. Perhaps Bara once conveyed his ideals to his mother, and Maemunah tried to find out about what IT experts are and what cyber security is.

" If mother and Akio have been supportive, how else, Alma just hope Bara's life in the future can be useful for many people".

" If becoming an IT expert can be a useful person for others, of course Alma supports 100 %".

Maemunah smiled, because Alma could already understand the wishes of her little sister.

" What about your school now?, ever since you told me that you and Akio skipped class, you often think, you can or do not keep up with other friends". Maemunah immediately asked what had made him worried about Alma's situation.

" Everything's fine, ma'am, really....".

" Because Akio helped Alma a lot, and jumping class was indeed our desire, so we could immediately announce our marriage to everyone. Alma's tired of hiding our relationship"

Maemunah nodded, "I agree with your decision, you have been hiding your marital identity for over a year. And I also have to keep asking some neighbors who know about your marriage to keep your mouth shut, until you both graduate".

" If you graduate high school sooner, it'll be faster for you to publicize your marriage relationship".

" Alma and Akio say yes ma'am, sorry we can't go, but tomorrow we're here again".

Maemunah nodded, as Maemunah's mother never forced her will to stay in her house. Because after marriage, a wife must follow her husband and parental responsibilities have been transferred to the shoulders of the husband.
