(Not) Mistake
Chapter 1: Alvaro's Plan

A few months ago

“I love you, Vee,” a man tells a woman.

“I love you too, Alvaro, and please call me brother,” timpal the woman who is playing her phone, replied nonchalantly.

“I love you, really love you!” he said once again.

“I know,” answered him who still did not look at him.

“Vee!” alvaro exclaimed as he touched both of Olvee's cheeks to make him stare at her because he was starting to feel upset.

“Sister, Alvaro!” reply Olvee who also scowled annoyed.

“We are not siblings, why should I call you Brother?” ask Alvaro.

“Alvaro, don't start,” deny Olvee while brushed off Alvaro's hand on both cheeks.

“It was true!” alvaro replied loudly.

Olvee did not deny any more and chose to succumb to Alvaro's stubbornness. He turned his attention back to the phone he was playing. Olvee is not too dizzy with ‘Alvaro's love’ statement because he has also heard it often.

“I also seriously say if I love you as a woman.” Alvaro's statement this time made Olvee again unable to focus on his phone.

“My sister's cup has gone crazy,” Olvee said.

“I'm not your sister, Vee,” timpal Alvaro cold.

Olvee does not know what the reason for Alvaro lately suddenly just call him by name only. In addition, he said something that he considered a joke too often. This time too, Olvee heard Alvaro declare his love seriously, especially if he said it as a man to women.

“I've always wanted to ask you this, Alvaro,” said Olvee, who began to take this conversation seriously.

“What is it?” ask Alvaro.

“Why are you so sure if I'm not your sister?” ask Olvee directly.

“Because in reality you are not our brother,” replied Alvaro calmly and confidently with his gaze full of firmness and seriousness.

That look made Olvee hurt involuntarily. She had heard a lot from her parents' business partners, who often asked about her being misunderstood as an adopted daughter. He himself clearly knew the reason. Even his grandparents treated him differently from his other grandchildren. However, both of his parents who gave him equally great affection made the doubt fade away. But now, Alvaro more often raises doubts on him.

“O-olvee .. “ Olvee immediately brushed off the hand of Alvaro who was about to wipe his tears that had unconsciously come out.

“You yourself know, Alvaro. But you, you instead ... “ Olvee could not continue his words because of his crying.

“Vee .. “ Alvaro brings Olvee into his arms, despite initially getting rejected.

Olvee continued her crying inside Alvaro's warm embrace. He let the younger brother calm himself while stroking his back gently to hasten his crying to subside. Alvaro didn't mean to make Olvee cry. He only felt annoyed with Olvee not really responding to his serious statement and did not intend to understand.

“Although you are not the daughter of the Marveen family, you can be the daughter-in-law of the Marveen family when we are married.” Alvaro's words get a pretty harsh pinch from Olvee.

“Vee!” exclaim Alvaro as he let go of their embrace.

“Although we are different, but Mama and Papa's affection for me is the same. They are my biological parents and we are siblings.” Olvee said it firmly.

“Although so, I will still love you forever as a woman.”

At that time, Olvee again did not respond too much to the words of Alvaro because he considered it as the speech of a young man who had just grown up. At that time, Alvaro may have loved her, but it was because of her sister's affection for her that had been very big since childhood. However, seeing the scene in front of him now made Olvee very upset. Where Jihan and Alvaro are hugging.

This familiar feeling is the same feeling when he caught an affair committed by his former lover used to be with his college friends. An anger, betrayal, and jealousy become one. Why does he feel it now for his sister?

He should have felt the same way when Alvaro declared his love seriously one year ago. However, this time he felt that if the talk was just nonsense and ridiculous, he hoped that Alvaro was really serious. What is the matter with him right now?

Olvee cleared a small thump when entering the room Alvaro made the two people who were hugging it took off their hugs and looked awkward. Just as awkward as him.

“Then I'll leave now, Alvaro. I'm sorry, Brother Olvee.” The girl clumsily bawled and went out of Alvaro's room.

Olvee threw the damn documents that were the reason he came here right in front of Alvaro's chest. Yes, he was annoyed at having to deliver the documents left behind by Alvaro and had to be awkward at seeing their affection. Olvee tried to continue to suggest himself for this reason.

“If I had to take the document back to your office, I would never forgive you again, Alvaro.” Olvee said coldly as he turned to leave Alvaro's room after finishing his business.

“Wait, Vee.” Alvaro blocks Olvee's wrist.

“Do not touch! I'm still upset because of your distraction in the middle of my work, yes!” jutting Olvee while holding Alvaro's hand.

“Keep if you are not jealous of Jihan, Brother,” timpal Alvaro calm that makes Olvee increasingly glared sharply.

“I'm upset because you're careless and I have to endure the consequences! Not jealous or anything! Yeah, like that!” spray Olvee who sounded as if it was being said to himself. Like a suggestion.

“Alright,” replied Alvaro then chuckled softly.

“I'm annoyed by your carelessness, Alvaro!” adamant Olvee once again seemed to convince Alvaro.

“I said well, why do you have to convince me so?” alvaro asked began to tease.

Olvee was silent for a few seconds and then shocked. Everything inside Olvee's head, Alvaro can guess what it is. He looks very happy to tease Olvee.

“Terden! Just wasting time!” After running out of words, Olvee went out of Alvaro's room with flushed cheeks.

“Vee .. “ After leaving Alvaro's room, he followed him and called him.

Since Olvee didn't want to drop her sister's name in her own office, Olvee tried to hold back her emotions. He turned around and looked right at the black-eyed bead that was looking at him more seriously.

“Is there anything you need again?” tanya Olvee who also began to feel curious about what Alvaro would say.

“I will receive an arranged marriage with Jihan.”
