CS1 What's up with Anjani?

Anjani. Rangga swiftly carrying Anjani's body alone. Mario saw all of that. Eyes rounded. Heart's thick. The flames of jealousy were again fierce.

“Anjani!” mario exclaimed from the second floor of the shophouse.

Mario's steps so quickly down the stairs. Mario is still watching Anjani's body in Rangga's arms. It felt as though Mario's chest was watching that. However, Mario must put aside his jealousy first.

“Let me take it to the top bed,” Mario said as he prepared to receive Anjani's body.

“Let me just.” Rangga just passed Mario.

For a moment, Mario stood where he stood. Both hands were not welcome. More and more annoyed Mario on the attitude of Rangga. The blazing fire that had been muted actually re-burned. Mario clucked in annoyance.

“Kak Mario, medicine box where?” asked Meli in haste.

“D- Above. Near the two-stacking cupboard,” point Mario. “I'll call the doctor,”.

Meli nodded briefly then headed towards the two-stacking cupboard to retrieve the medicine box. Mario again tried to forget his regret for Rangga. Jemariya nimble contact one of his family's personal doctors.

Rangga laid Anjani's body slowly on the bed. He noticed the beautiful figure of Anjani whose face was so pale. A few seconds Rangga locked the beautiful figure of Anjani in his eyes.

“Beauty,” thought Rangga.

Rangga was still at home looking at Anjani. Until then, Meli came to disperse Rangga's behavior.

“Kak Rangga move aside! I want to give you eucalyptus oil for Anjani!” Meli came with a medicine box.

“Em, please.” Rangga welcome, but did not move from where he stood.

“Agot far there, Brother. Blindfold. I want to loosen Anjani's hijab, nih.” Meli told Rangga a little away so that Anjani's aurat was not visible when Meli smeared eucalyptus oil on Anjani's neck area.

Rangga nodded briefly. He's got. Her steps away to sit on the sofa while waiting for Meli to finish.

Meli loosened the hijab that Anjani was wearing and immediately smeared eucalyptus oil. The aroma of eucalyptus oil is also close to Anjani's nose. Simple technique, but it works. Slowly, Anjani woke up.

“Alhamdulillaah aware,” exciting Meli joy. Anjani's eyes were not fully opened.

Mario who heard the call of Meli quickly approached. And so is Rangga. Mario and Rangga are on different sides of the bed. However, both of them showed the same expression. Both worried about Anjani.

The voice of Anjani's friends sounded faint. Anjani is still trying to open both her eyes. Slowly, Anjani's head turned to the side of the place where Mario was. Anjani opened her eyes, then slammed slowly.

“Anjani,” Ogre Mario.

Mario's sweet smile has adorned his handsome face. Prepare to welcome the newly awakened Anjani. Mario expectations are too high, expecting Anjani will also smile when he sees it. But what happened was just the opposite.

“Go you!” anjani on Mario.

Anjani shows a dislike face. There was a scared look on his face. Anjani brushed aside slowly away from Mario while still putting on a frightened face. Absolutely no one expected, the next second Anjani turned his face away from Mario and spontaneously embraced Rangga.

“Anjani!” exclaim Meli restrained. Both of Meli's hands reflexively covered her mouth.

Rangga was shocked by Anjani's sudden attitude. Because it is not good with Mario and Meli, Rangga tried to take off Anjani's embrace slowly. However, Anjani's embrace is getting tighter.

“Ke-why am I even pounding gini hugged Anjani?” thought Rangga.

Mario's facial expression is no longer perceptible. The taste in his chest was raging, jumbled. I don't understand the situation, yes. Jealousy, too. Want to be angry at Rangga, especially. However, Mario refrained from venting his heart blindness on Rangga. It would be ridiculous if Mario did.

Meli confused how to. Alternately, Meli looked at Mario and Rangga. Mario looks desperate, while Rangga looks resigned just his body hugged Anjani.

“Sini-here. Anjani hugs me just here,” Meli's idea.

Meli pulled Anjani's arm slowly. Anjani's body quickly moved into Meli's embrace. Meli stroked the back of her best friend. Meli could clearly feel how hot Anjani's body temperature was.

“Deman,” said Meli while looking at Mario.

Mario nodded briefly. He called back his family doctor to confirm his position. Alhamdulillaah, the doctor is almost at the shophouse.

Anjani still hugged Meli tightly. The sound began to sound clear. Anjani sobbed in Meli's arms. Although not knowing what the cause, but Meli still tried to calm Anjani.

“Calm Anjani, Darling. The doctor will be here soon. Cup-cup-cup,” entertain Meli.

Anjani did not respond. His sobs were no longer heard either. Meli who felt strange was immediately checking back Anjani's situation.

“Loh, fainting again?” Meli surprised.

Mario panic. He never saw Anjani get sick like that. He called the family doctor repeatedly, and the answer remained the same. Almost arrived.

“Mario. Calm yourself. Sit down,” advice Rangga.

Initially Mario hot got that advice from Rangga. However, he had no reason whatsoever to reject any advice from her. After a rough sigh, Mario sat on the edge of the bed looking at Anjani's face. Mario is really worried.

What's wrong with you, Anjani? Inner Mario

Anjani lay weakly on the bed. Still fainting and fever. Meli and Rangga stood on the left side of the bed, while Mario was still sitting on the right side of the bed while still looking at the pale face of Anjani.

"Rangga, please wait for Doctor Ema in front of the shophouse. He'll be there soon" Mario ordered.

Mario kindly told Rangga. His heart and mind are beginning to be controlled. Seeing the fact that Anjani was having a fever, most likely Anjani hugged Rangga unconsciously.

"Meli, relax. Anjani will be fine" said Mario without turning his face away from Anjani.

Meli. The sentence just now is more suitable for Mario himself. Meli witnesses how unsettled Mario saw the condition of Anjani.

"Sir Mario is worried about Anjani?" ask Meli. Pleasantry for the sake of breaking the void.

Mario's sweet smile expands, while still looking at Anjani. Suppose following later. Mario is worried about Anjani, whom he loves very much.

"Ep. Sorry I was kepo. Brother Mario really still loves Anjani, huh?" ask Meli again. There was a chance to ask, her mind.

Mario smiled again. Mario's eyeballs still can not be separated from the figure of Anjani who is lying on the bed. Anjani's figure still attracts his attention despite being pale.

Meli did not get a yes answer to her question. Meli also did not hear the word rejection. However, Meli still concluded that Mario really loves Anjani. The smile on Mario's face is one proof.

Doctor Ema, Mario's family's personal doctor has arrived. While Dr. Ema was handling Anjani's condition, Mario was asked to wait elsewhere. Only Meli accompanied Doctor Ema.

Be, Mario downstairs. There's Rangga over there. Near the cashier's desk. Rangga looked at the bookkeeping that Anjani had made.

"Staircase" call Mario.

"Eh, yes." Rangga closed his book. "Anjani is still being examined, huh?" tanyanya.

Mario nodded briefly.

"Please." Mario.

"Did Anjani have a boyfriend?" ask Rangga.

Mario speechless. Hearing Rangga's question actually made him wonder. What exactly does Rangga ask that.

"has no. Since the hijrah, Anjani did not want his name to date. Even some of the friends and seniors who had once expressed love for her, were then also rejected kindly." Mario explained based on facts.

"Masyaa Allah. What a rare girl." Rangga smiled and praised Anjani.

Mario was a little less fond of the expression that Rangga showed.

"ask again. Is Anjani currently liking someone?" Rangga asked again.

"Eitherway. I don't know the depth of Anjani's heart at all" said Mario.

"One more question. Do you like Anjani?" ask Rangga.

The deg!

Mario speechless. He could not guess the way Rangga thought. Just this time he met a figure like Rangga, who dared to ask directly when he had only known each other for a few days.

"Yes. I like Anjani" said Mario. Face seriously. Mario deliberately, so that Rangga does not try to compete with him.

Rangga's smile widened to hear Mario's reply.

"You should be very worried about Anjani. Sorry yes, I even carried Anjani in front of you. And ... That's when Anjani hugged me." Rangga's words paused Mario.

"Don't think. Anjani is in feverish condition. He's not conscious." Mario patted Rangga's shoulder gently with a smile.

Rangga was relieved that his boss was neither jealous nor fired him. At that time Rangga was determined to keep his distance from Anjani and dismissed his fantasies about Anjani.

Doctor Ema finished examining and treating Anjani. Doctor Ema goes down to see Mario.

"Rangga, I'd like to have a quick chat with Dr. Ema." Mario hints.

"OKAY. I'll go upstairs first." Rangga immediately went upstairs.

When Rangga had climbed to the second floor, then the doctor Ema began to report the condition of Anjani to Mario.

"The medicine will react. God willing his fever will drop a few hours later. Anjani had regained consciousness just now before finally fainting again. Anjani's condition is not worrisome. He was just exhausted, and it seemed like there was indeed a burden that was being thought of," Dr. Ema explained.

"Think load?" Mario makes sure what he hears.

"That kind. We all must have experienced. When there is something that disturbs the mind, the diet becomes irregular. Insomnia struck. Immunity is declining" added Dr. Ema.

Mario nodded. Anjani has been busy preparing for Meli's wedding. Occasionally even help him give ideas about shophouses. Mario confirmed that Anjani was exhausted. However, what Mario does not know is the burden of Anjani's mind.

"Let Anjani rest. I went back to the hospital again. Ohya, Anjani had mentioned 'father'. It could be that's what's bothering her mind," Doctor Ema guessed.

Mario thanks Dr. Ema. Shortly after Dr. Ema left, Mario was quick to respond to the allegations of Doctor Ema.

"Dad?" lirih Mario's. He was thinking.

Mario only knows that Anjani's family is no longer intact. Anjani only lives with Ma in the village. The rest, Mario never asked more about Anjani's father.

Jemari Mario is agile looking for contacts on his smartphone. One quick voice call was intended for Uncle Li, his father's son and right hand.

"Paman Li. Aku butuh bantuan. Tolong cari tahu tentang ayah Anjani. Aku butuh informasinya segera." Wajah Mario serius.

Mario hands the hunt for information about Anjani's father to his father's men. Done with it, Mario went back upstairs.

Meli and Rangga were sitting on the sofa. Two bottles of cold drink were on the table. Both Meli and Rangga are both busy staring at the screen of their respective smartphones. Mario did not join Meli and Rangga. Mario actually stood beside the bed, looking back at the pale face of Anjani.

Just a few seconds Mario there, Anjani already showed signs of rumination. Mario immediately called Meli and Rangga to get closer.

"Eeem," Anjani sizzled as she held her forehead.

Both of Anjani's eyes opened slowly. The first person I saw was Mario. Anjani immediately sat on the bed. Unlike before, now Anjani smiled while looking at the figure of Mario who was standing beside the bed.

"Alhamdulillaahafemore. You're awake" said Mario gratefully. Mario's smile expands, returning Anjani's smile aimed at him.

Meli and Rangga smiled at her. However, their sense of pleasure soon turned into a sense of wonder. Bizarrely. Anjani is acting strange again.

Anjani gets off the bed. Mario suggests Anjani lie down, but Anjani ignites. Anjani just keep stepping over to Mario while still smiling.

"Mario" said Anjani, calling Mario.

Mario's little heart can't lie. Mario is happy Anjani called his name. In the next second, the unexpected happened.

Anjani hugs Mario's body tightly. Mario's eyeballs are rounded. She is shocked by Anjani's unexpected attitude. However, there is a happy feeling that Mario feels when Anjani hugs him. Mario's heart was even pounding.

Mario returns Anjani's embrace. Her embrace in Anjani's body. It was then that Mario could feel how hot Anjani's body temperature was.

Still feverish. If you do this unconsciously. I will never regret it, Anjani. Inner Mario.

Rangga and Meli compactly covered her gawking mouth. Surely they were surprised to see Anjani and Mario cuddling.

"Okay, Anjani. It was a hug Rangga. Now Brother Mario is hugged. Duh, Brother Mario instead take the opportunity in a narrow again. Not separated, right?" Meli splash herself. "Stupid, ah. Let alone. They both love each other." Meli chose indifferently.

Mario-Anjani still hugs. The two even deepened their arms. Anjani then took off her embrace slowly. His pale face that was still decorated with smiles stared fixed Mario eyeballs. Slowly Anjani began to bring his face closer to Mario's face. The longer their lips get closer. Mario is not avoiding. Until then ....

"No boleeh!" shouting Meli.

Mario who was surprised by the screams of Meli quickly turned his head. Anjani faints on Mario's shoulder. Mario-Anjani fails to kiss due to Meli's scream.

Connect ....
