Eps 26 - Getting Jealous



Arfan contacted Elnaz and told him that he had landed, after which he immediately went to the hospital to finish his business so that it was quickly completed and he could return to Jakarta immediately.


While Elnaz who is currently in Sister Jessy's apartment busies herself by reading books because it is her hobby.


"Hi, El.." said Sister Jessy, who entered Elnaz's room without knocking on the door.


"Why, Auntie?" ask Elnaz coldly which makes Sister Jessy want to laugh.


"Why do you call me Auntie? I'm the same age as Arfan, just call brother" Jessy said.


"Hm" replied Elnaz and he refocused on his book.


"Aren't you tired of being in the room? Come out yuk, we'll watch. I have a good movie, from Jane Austin's novel" Of course, Elnaz was interested in hearing that and instantly his eyes sparkled, but then he even glared annoyed at Sister Jessy who is super sexy like that model, what else is his skin so white as cotton alone and that makes his Upset certainly not because of the physical perfection of it, but because of his closeness with Arfan.


"Don't you know that Arfan's sister is married?" asked Elnaz coldly and Sister Jessy nodded "So, Auntie don't get too close to a married man, later on the suspect actor" said Elnaz who even made Sister Jessy laugh.


"You're jealous, am I close to Arfan? Don't you just think he's a brother?" ask Sister Jessy.


"But the fact we're married and Brother Arfan is my husband, Auntie. I'm not jealous" said Elnaz.


"You sure? Elsa, aren't you jealous?" lure Sister Jessy and instantly Elnaz fell silent. While Sister Jessy waited patiently for Elnaz's reply, Elnaz shook her head weakly.


"Oh, so you're not jealous. Yes, maybe now Elsa is meeting Arfan in her house" Sister Jessy said casually then she left the room Elnaz.


Sister Jessy brushed her hair and it turns out she was wearing earphones that connected calls to Liam and Arfan.


"You're so unlucky, Fan. She's still chuckling with her feelings" Sister Jessy said.


"It's not on his feelings, but on his ego" replied Dr. Liam is laughing.


"But Elnaz can't hide his jealousy on me, dear. Even so upset she was the same as me, until I was called Aunt" Sister Jessy said with a laugh.


"She also calls you a sexy nurse, and when she talks about you, she doesn't seem to like it" Arfan said.


"Ah, I didn't expect. Soon Arfan moved on from Elsa and moved to Elnaz" sister Jessy said acting sad and sounding weird from Arfan from across the phone. As if he was not saddened by the failure of his marriage with Elsa.


"It is precisely I think that Arfan really loves Elnaz, Arfan and Elnaz are close, even since Elnaz was born. While Arfan and Elsa were only close when they just entered college"


"Well, hidden love is her name" seduced Sister Jessy. While Arfan just chuckled at the chatter of his best friend.


At this time Sister Jessy was making coffee, and suddenly just arrived Elnaz came and called her aunt again.


"Sister aunt.." cried Elnaz and heard two men on the phone laughing amusedly when he heard the nickname for Sister Jessy.


"Yes, what's up, El?" ask Sister Jessy who is now holding back upset because she continues to be called Aunt.


"I'm hungry" said Elnaz, holding his hungry stomach.


"All right, I got a roast chicken. You can go to the kitchen and just eat there" exclaimed sister Jessy.


"Is there any instant noodles? I want to eat spicy instant noodles" said Elnaz.


"Don't let him eat instant noodles, Jes" exclaimed Arfan from across the phone and of course Elnaz did not know if Jessy was currently communicating with Arfan.


"The roasted chicken is much healthier, El" sister Jessy said, and at the end of the day, Elnaz nodded. Because it is impossible also he still kekeh asked for noodles in the place of strangers.


"All right, thank you, Aunt sister. I'm sorry to bother you" Elnaz said sincerely but the two men across the phone laughed again because of the Aunt Sister's call.


"I'm his cousin's sister and his wife, Aunt Sister" insisted Elnaz and he rushed to the kitchen.


...... ...


Arfan who heard the narration of Elnaz was pleased, Because slowly but surely Elnaz received her status as Arfan's wife. In addition, Elnaz did show his jealousy to Sister Jessy, making Arfan even more happy.


"Alright, Jes. Long ago, I had to go home. I'm picking up Elnaz huh, and don't let him eat junk food anything else instant noodles" pinta Arfan.


"All right, doctor friend" replied Sister Jessy from across the phone.


Arfan was in the hospital until the day before night, after which he went home to rest because today he felt very tired.


Both Arfan's parents are certainly very happy with Arfan's return even though it was just last night.


"How's Elnaz doing there, Fan?" ask Pak Adi and simple questions that make Arfan feel happy, because at least no one cares for Elnaz from his family members other than grandmother, of course.


"Elnaz's good, Pa. Thankfully, she started to laugh again and slowly started accepting our relationship status" Arfan replied.


"Alhamdulillah then, he is still very small, Fan" he said. While Bu Yuni was still the same, acting as if he did not care about Elnaz.


"Yes, I'm going to the room first, I'm going to rest. Because tomorrow my plane is morning" cried Arfan.


He went into his room, cleaned himself and performed prayers.


After the prayer, Arfan's phone rang and it was Elnaz who made a video call. Arfan answered enthusiastically. The face of his wife's angel instantly filled Arfan's cellphone screen.


"What, Princess? are you missing?" it was Goda Arfan who made Elnaz grunt.


"No, El just wanted help, later bring some more El clothes yes, brother. Let there be no need to buy anymore" pinta Elnaz and Arfan nodded, because Elnaz did bring a little clothes there.


"What else will you do, Princess?" arfan asked as he opened the wardrobe of Elnaz and chose some of the clothes of Elnaz.


"That's it" said Elnaz, without Arfan seeing Elnaz's underwear.


"Your underwear? Want to bring it too? There are many here, there are blue, white, red, black. Keep her bra? you have to change bras every day you know" said Arfan casually that makes Elnaz grimace, feeling ashamed of himself because he was no longer a child that could be offered such underwear by Arfan. What else Arfan turned his camera using the rear camera and he showed Elnaz's underwear.


"Don't have a bad brain in there, brother. Ishh" grumbled Elnaz annoyed.


"Why is it? Than you buy it back there, don't you?"


"No need, El bring enough really" replied Elnaz and Arfan was just laughing, what else when he saw the face of Elnaz who looked embarrassed.


Arfan closed the door of Elnaz's closet and when it sounded the door of his room that opened, making Arfan surprised and immediately turned his head.


He sees Elsa who just went into his room and Elnaz sees Elsa because Arfan is still using his rear camera.


"Hi, Fan. I just found out you're coming home" said Elsa in a low voice as she smiled a smile. And at that time Elnaz immediately disconnected his phone.


"El.." call Arfan but late, he calls Elnaz back but is not answered.


...... ...


Elnaz holding his chest which arrived suddenly felt tight when he saw Elsa earlier. Not only that, his heart even thumped and his soul seemed to rebel not like what he saw. His soul doesn't seem to accept that, why? Wasn't Elsa and Arfan together before? Even Elnaz always felt happy when his two brothers looked happy when together. Why does he not like it now? That question bersamuk in the mind of Elnaz.


His heart was like hot, his soul rebelled. And he doesn't understand that, or is this something called jealousy?
