Silent...
On the bed, in Fara's room, Kenan and Fara looked at each other in silence with a fairly close distance. The two pairs of pitch black netra they locked each other tightly. In his position, Kenan held Fara's shoulders with his hands after breaking the hug earlier. And both of Fara's hands were still perched on either side of Kenan's waist. They sat with each other for a long time. Slowly Kenan leaned his face towards Fara's face, eroding the distance over time. While staying a few inches longer Kenan's lips and Fara's lips meet, suddenly...
Ding dong's...
The sound of the apartment doorbell made Kenan and Fara aware of the atmosphere that almost caused them to kiss. Shame and regret, Kenan and Fara separated from each other with misbehavior.
"I'm sorry" said Kenan and Fara almost together in a position to back each other.
"Ehem..." Kenan cleared his throat "Gak, it's one of Big Brother who got carried away." he argued while scratching his nape that did not itch and rose from his seat "Then, Brother to the front first, Brother to the front first, make see who comes." he added, then immediately move before Fara had time to respond to one of his words.
Bruck...
Kenan again closed the door of Fara's room from the outside with great caution so as not to cause noise. "****, who the hell came to visit this early in the morning? Basic atmosphere destroyer." Before stepping his foot towards the main door, he took a moment of annoyance, cursing at the guest.
Chequek...
The door opened, and the figure of Gabela in her formal work suit stood gracefully right in front of Kenan. Don't forget her bright smile that beat the bright sun that morning. But a second later the smile faded, finding Kenan even returned with a cold flat expression, even the look in his eyes implying annoyance. "Good morning, Ken!" he was clumsy with Kenan.
"Gaby?" Kenan knitted his eyebrows slightly surprised to find that the guest was Gabela. He thought earlier, the ART who was in charge of cleaning his apartment every morning after he and Fara left for work, because they should have gone to work by now. "What are you visiting so early in the morning?" tanyanya.
"Ugh..." Gabela was stunned to catch the faint intonation of annoyance in Kenan's words. He followed the wonder he made. "I-I just wanted to hitchhike with you guys to the hospital" she replied.
"Oh, so. But I'm sorry, it looks like today, my wife and I can't go to work." said Kenan flatly.
"Huh? Why?" cecar Gabela with astonishment and worry. He watched Kenan's body from top to bottom. Not without reason he was surprised and worried, because, during his work with Kenan, he very rarely found Kenan skipped his job, what else until he did not go to work. If counted, it may still be counted with the fingers, how many times he found Kenan skipped or did not enter work. It was only when Kenan was very ill that he did not allow himself to work. As for matters of affairs or interests, work was paramount to Kenan above all else. However, he found no sign that Kenan was ill from his observations. Only Kenan's mood seemed to be not okay, thought Gabela confused.
Gabela's worries, Kenan feels a little guilty and pity. It was not that he could not read Gabela's loving eyes every time he looked at her. Kenan can clearly read it. Even that loving gaze was more and more longing than the last time they met. But Kenan tries to ignore him, and always tries to be firm in front of Gabela, showing that he has been owned by others and will not change ownership of anyone, including Gabela herself. Therefore, Kenan always emphasized the word 'my wife' whenever he mentioned Farah's identity to Gabela.
'Huf.'s...' Kenan m*ngasps in the heart "Nothing. I just want to accompany MY WIFE in the apartment, she's sick." again she emphasized the word 'ELECTRIKU', hoping that Gabela understood her cue.
And it seemed like this time it worked, Gabela was stunned for a moment. His chest suddenly felt claustrophobic, Kenan's reply completely poked his heart out. But he tried to be calm and ordinary in front of Kenan "Ma-you mean, Fara is sick?"
"Hm." replied Kenan only a short 'hm.
"It was a recurrence earlier, but I've dealt with it. It's better now, but I can't leave it. As a HUSBAND, can't I leave MY WIFE in a bad state?" kenan said at length and relaxed but full of emphasis that for Gabela like thousands of swords that rained down on his heart mercilessly to never have time to bleed.
Really sick but not bleeding. This time Gabela was stunned for a long time while trying to expel the pain as well as tightness that combined into one residing in his chest. Ingested as deep a breath as possible, then exhaled slowly "Huuffhh... Can I also not go to work today? I want to help take care of Fara." bargained with a choked voice.
"No need, I can do it myself. I'm quite confident in my ability as AN INTERNAL MEDICINE SPECIALIST." refused Kenan raw, cynical anyway. Instead of sympathizing with Gabela's condition, she felt insinuated by the girl's words that seemed to doubt her medical ability.
"Ugh..." Gabela was stunned to be so wrong "A-I didn't mean to doubt your abilities. I just want to take care of Fara."
"No need, I told you, I can do it myself. If you're worried about MY WIFE, I'll let you see her. But, can not linger, because MY WIFE needs calm to rest maximum to quickly recover." stressed Kenan "Again, you also have to go to work to replace me temporarily. Isn't that your duty as my assistant?"
Gabela really can't deny. All of Kenan's words are true. And he could not argue, especially after listening to a very clear assertiveness in Kenan said. "Hufh.." breathed a heavy breath "Alright, then I will visit Fara after going home to work alone." broke it with a heavy heart in the end.
"Hm." Kenan nodded in satisfaction "I'll have my driver drive you to the hospital. Let's just say it's a ride from me and MY WIFE, just like you wanted in the beginning. Yes, although a little different to us who can not participate. Again, I'm sorry." to be honest, Kenan has been very unwell with all his attitude towards Gabela ever since. But how else, he had to be firm despite having to hurt Gabela. Therefore, as his apology, he offered Gabela a ride.
"Yes, it's okay. I'll take the ride, thank you. Then, excuse me. Bye bye!"
"Hm, I'll see you."
Kenan stared at the back of Gabela who passed towards the elevator. Shortly before the elevator door closed, the girl still had time to wave with a smile that seemed forced on her. Kenan also replied to him with the same thing, but of course with a sincere smile. In his deepest heart, Kenan felt awe at Gabela's toughness. He admitted, the girl was really tough. Unfortunately, Gabela put her heart in the wrong place. Kenan was very sorry for that and felt guilty for him. Sometimes Kenan thinks he should reject Gabela?
Honestly, Kenan recognizes the physical perfection of Gabela as a woman who has an attraction that is able to attract adam easily. Unfortunately, Kenan is not among them. So far the effect on Gabela is only limited to working partners and friends who have been considered as a sister. There is no interest between the opposite sex. I don't know, Kenan doesn't know why either. All he knew was that he had to do his best to give up Gabela's hope of stopping craving her. 'May you get my replacement, Gaby. I really hope for your happiness.' His prayers are sincere in heart.
Then Kenan went back into the apartment and did not forget to close the door again. Before returning to Fara's room, he called the driver through the intercom, ordering the driver to drive Gabela to the hospital.
Chequek...
Upon entering Fara's room, Kenan found Fara lying down, her condition still appearing weak.
"Who?" fara asked as soon as Kenan arrived by her side, sitting on the edge of the bed.
"Gabela." replied Kenan.
