The body is just a shell. Thus, judge a person by looking at his soul, not his body and appearance.

“Axelle adek you why else?”

Axelle who was cool eating his dinner also rolled his eyes lazy. Because there was no word from Axelle, Jacob approached her with a disheveled face.

“What problems this time?” His big hands involuntarily kicked up the dining table a little, which made Axelle's food plate slightly shift from its place.

Axelle calmly finished the food in her mouth before answering her brother's question. “Gue don't know. Adek lo was just about the same meeting nyokapnya Adam. Back and forth the child has been sealing the rich ductile feathers. Cave has tried to persuade and nanya from earlier but still only its position has not changed.”

“Lo nanyanya nyolot times?” jacob asked in a suspicious tone, which made Axelle's tiny heart slightly hurt because it felt accused.

“Bang, you are so evil his mouth. Well said Estelle, mouth lo lemes.”

“What a child b*bi! Not very clear lo,” reply Jacob did not accept.

“Ya again you recite! The mulu cave is wrong! Adek lo the stress of the cave is also wronged!” Axelle chose to move on from there and return to her room without finishing her meal.

Axelle's annoyance grew when he saw a large lump on his mattress that caused Jacob to spit out the man's frustration at him. “Back your room there if you don't want to tell me anything! Gua Kesel do not want to sleep with lo!”

The bundle moved and slightly opened, revealing the red face of the younger brother. “Dizziness,” Estelle with snot flowing profusely soaked the cheeks and blankets she was wearing.

Axelle's flat gaze turned sad, his sense of regret instantly vanished replaced with a sense of worry that was so stifling. He swiftly climbed onto the mattress to check on the condition of his sister.

“Fever, besides dizziness what else do you feel?”

“The next door is clogged, her breathing is hard.”

Axelle removed the blanket that wrapped Estelle's body, she tidied Estelle's messy hair before opening the tie and button of the top shirt the sister wore. “Wait here for a minute.”

“Ga wants to be left,” Estelle's whining makes Axelle exhale rough.

“After aja. Brother wants to go to brother for a minute.” Axelle dipped in Estelle's forehead while removing the girl's hand from the t-shirt she was wearing. After that he immediately went to tell the brother about the condition of the sister.

Jacob and Axelle entered the room in a hurry. The two each carried a medicine box, a towel and a small basin for Estelle. Jacob approached Estelle to give her a thermometer to her mouth.

“Xelle, please take a change of clothes. Wet all these clothes.” Axelle quickly immediately took a nightgown that if comfortable to wear for Estelle at this time.he also took a yellow dog bando so that his sister's hair does not disturb the sister.

“Try to check there is a heat-lowering drug not there?” jacob orders again while changing Estelle's clothes.

Not finding what she was looking for, Axelle immediately put on her hoodie, preparing to get out. “Buy the heat-lowering plaster as well,” Jacob added before Axelle actually got out of there.

“You why did you take the sick gini rich? Must have been drinking ice ‘kan you?!”

With her eyes closed Estelle thumped her lips in annoyance. “Abang don't nag ih dizzy!!” whine with frown deep.

“Liar! Salah himself never heard the talk of his brother.”

“Abaaangg iiihh!” estelle's whining became more and more when Jacob clung to her head slowly. The girl sobbed softly with her eyes still tightly closed.

Slightly unbearable, Jacob kissed in Estelle's head. “Sorry yes. Brother made food first, the brother took medicine purchased with Axelle later. Now you go to sleep. Here you are this ugly yellow guy first.” Jacob slipped the yellow anj*ng doll that Estelle used to hold in the folds of the girl's hand.

“Don't be long,” Og Estelle.

“Iya, Darling.”

“Yes. Look at it, Bang! The cave is wet like this is still just!” Axelle was upset but fortunately not taken seriously by Jacob. The man only nodded in understanding and chose to immediately bring the results of his cooking to Axelle's room.

Axelle was still grumbling with annoyance even after she entered the bathroom located near the kitchen. The man could have taken a bath in his own room even though Estelle and Jacob were there. It's just that he didn't want Estelle to feel guilty when she saw him drenched for finding the girl a cure.

Estelle, her sister is very, very sensitive if she's sick like this. And Axelle was never happy when she saw it all.

On the other hand, Jacob struggles to persuade Estelle to finish her meal. “Stelle, let's suck again,” please the man who just got a firm headband from Estelle.

“You just ate two mouthfuls, Stelle. Come on, another sip!” Jacob deliberately forced the spoon into Estelle's mouth. But because Estelle did not want to and closed her mouth tightly, the soup made by Jacob was even scattered everywhere.

Jacob breathed a tired sigh. He twitched at the base of his nose as he felt the throbbing in his head reappear.

Both of Estelle's eyes glazed over looking at the older brother who looked very tired. He felt very guilty, but he was also confused because he really did not eat it all now. His stomach seemed to refuse and push all the food that was about to enter.

“Abang .. sorry.” After saying so with a trembling voice, Estelle sobbed softly. This spontaneously made Jacob devote all his attention to Estelle and try not to care about the pain in her head.

Jacob placed the bowl he was holding on the nightstand next to the bed. The man narrowed his distance back to his sister. He gently tipped the top of Estelle's head before wiping it carefully. “Shh. Do not cry for long, your head will get dizzy. Yes huh? If you are sick, you also feel very weak. That's why you're cured, brother, you're sick with gini rich gini ..”

Jacob's words actually even made Estelle's cries increasingly become. The girl was even reluctant to let go of the grip of her hand on the shirt that Jacob was wearing right now, as if he were to take it off.

With a breath that is still as hiccuping as Estelle said softly, “mau hugged ...”

Jacob who could still hear that very clearly smiled. He carefully changed his position so that he could hug Estelle while lying next to his sister. Making his arm as Estelle's head pad slowly began to calm down in her arms.

Axelle, who had finished bathing and changed clothes, returned to her room and found Estelle, who had fallen asleep again. The difference this time the girl fell asleep in the warm embrace of the brother. In his heart he was grateful to see it. At least when he leaves, there is Jacob who will always be with Estelle to replace him.

No, Jacob didn't replace him. From the beginning he was the substitute here. And all of that will return to his original position when he leaves here.

Axelle shook her head quite loudly, trying to get rid of such ugly thoughts just now. Estelle could be sad if the girl knew that she still likes to think ugly like this and she did not want her sister to be sad because of it.

Not wanting both of her most loved ones to be distracted, Axelle shut her bedroom door and chose to rest in Estelle's room alone tonight.

With light steps Axelle walked towards Estelle's room which was located not far from her room. But he had not had time to go in there, he heard a voice that slowly began to sound foreign in his ear while saying his name.

“Axelle, mom wants to talk to you,” call Agatha again. This time in a slightly pleading voice.

“You talk as my mom or her husband?” axelle's response was not at all friendly. Even so the man still turned around and still wanted to look directly at Agatha.

“You can’t answer my question? That hard you answered?”

“Axelle, please .. Don't be like this.”

With hardened jaws, Axelle was restoring her hair. “It should be me who speaks like that, Mrs Agatha Harrison. I need to remind you again, you have a promise with her mom. You marry him only to be a mother to their children not to be his wife! Don’t you forget it, Mom!”

Both eyes of Agatha were shocked to hear the words of the son. Where did his son know all this?

“If you broke your promise with her, the I’ll break our-”

“Axelle!” call Agatha who quickly cuts off the words of her biological son. His heart seemed forced when he heard Axelle's words earlier. From the tone of the son, Agatha understood Axelle was really serious with his words earlier.

Axelle shrugged both of her shoulders looking unconcerned. “All depends on you, Mrs Harrison,” she said coldly without caring at all about the feelings of the mother there. He quickly turned around and immediately entered Estelle's room.
