Darrel could only be stunned when he watched Eliza who was completely asleep on the sofa with her body covered in Jibril's suit. Darrel noticed his sister's face which was still a little sembab. "Did he cry?" ask Darrel to Jibril who is still working.
"Hem," replied Jibril muttering.
"Why?" asked Darrel with a deep frown.
"He was afraid of my employees" Jibril answered truthfully which made Darrel gawk.
"Did he take medicine?" ask again with a tone of voice that sounded panicked and now Jibril who looks confused.
"Why should he take medicine?" Jibril asked back which made Darrel cluck annoyed. However, Darrel reluctantly replies, he checks Eliza's bag and turns out the girl does not carry the medicine.
"When did he sleep?" asked Darrel again which immediately made Jibril chuckle. He closed his laptop, after which Jibril approached Darrel who was still standing looking at Eliza. It seems that Darrel really does not believe Eliza can sleep in a foreign place let alone there are strangers in the room as well.
"What's up with him, Darrel? She screamed in fear and said that if they were evil and would hurt her, did she have trauma on people? He also said he was afraid to take a taxi because he was afraid of being kidnapped and killed, my nephew just did not have such fears" said Jibril at length.
Darrel just looked at Eliza without any intention of answering Jibril's question, he didn't want the man to know his sister's weakness. "I'll take Eliza home" Darrel said later. He carefully raised Eliza's body and Gabriel had no intention of preventing her. However, Eliza suddenly wriggled and slowly her eyes opened.
"Darrel?" whining Eliza with a hoarse voice.
"We're home, Elizabeth. Why are you sleeping here?" darrel's growling between anxiety and annoyance. He took Eliza out of her car.
"I'm sleepy" Eliza replied, rubbing her eyes, which were still really sleepy.
Jibril just looked at the back of Eliza who was now away from him, Eliza turned her head and threw a very soft smile at Jibril to make Jibril's heart tremble. Moreover, Eliza's gaze was so sad, as if she wanted to touch the recesses of Jibril's heart.
Jibril's heart beat faster, even holding his chest and muttering, "What is this?" Jibril began to wonder, may he try to fight for Eliza just once? Regardless of the different beliefs or family blessing problems that he will inevitably face, may he try to pursue what is in his heart? Love for Eliza.
Eliza felt the same way. What happened today made Eliza fall even more on Jibril's gentle, firm charm. Can it be if he fights for his love regardless that his best friend also loves the man and also that their beliefs are different?
Jibril sat back in his big chair, grabbed his phone and sent Eliza a message without hesitation.
Me
"Elizabeth, can we meet tonight? I have something to talk to you about."
It only took a few seconds, Jibril also got a reply from Eliza.
