THE DOCTOR'S LOVE TRAP

23. Take you off

Today Elrich will return to Germany alone as Abrine will remain in Indonesia until their wedding day.

To avoid a big question mark from all sides of the family, Abrine had to deliver Elrich to the airport. Though if following the wishes of his heart, Abrine was very lazy to do that.

Abrine escorts Elrich along with Aarav. The three of them left quite early in the morning as El was about to depart on the first plane.

Aarav seemed to notice the interaction between Abrine and El which looked mediocre. You could say they are both even busy with their respective gadgets even though soon they will be separated. That provoked Aarav's curiosity about their relationship.

"You're used to gini, aren't you?" chuck Aarav while still focusing on driving the car.

"Gini habit, how?" asked El who was sitting next to Aarav.

"Yes, gini, busy yourself. Instead of snapping again you want to separate the distance, usually if the other couple will definitely be sticky to release kangen-angenan. Haha." Aarav laughed at the end of his sentence. "I also do it if the same Els," he continued.

Elrich immediately gasped for noticing Aarav's suspicions, he glanced at Abrine who was sitting casually in the backseat. No response from the girl, Abrine just looks ordinary like he did not hear Aarav's words just now.

"Ehm, we---"

"We're not like any other couple, brother!" sahut Abrine cut off Elrich's words that had not even been thrown. "We're different! We're both busy, El has his own job, so am I. We do not have time to mewikan because of the temporary distance," he said cuek while showing the gadget he held to Aarav from the reflection of the rearview mirror of the car.

Aarav chuckled softly. "I'm just as busy Els, too, but don't fuck each other like you, too, kali!"

"Different, dong! You guys are married. If we were married that would be, wouldn't we, baby?" Abrine raised an eyebrow at Elrich.

Elrich just put on a thin smile let alone hearing Abrine's call just now to him. Actually El wanted to say if Abrine's acting was very bad, but as much as possible he held back.

"When are you coming back here again, El?"

"Maybe a week before our wedding day. I'll drop Abrine, Rav." said El, glancing at Abrine behind.

Abrine stopped focusing on the gadget due to hearing El's speech just now. Why did he have to leave Abrine to Aarav? It's nothing, it sounds like it's very caring and it just makes Abrine not want to misinterpret later.

Arriving at the Airport. Aarav walked behind Abrine and Elrich who walked side by side first.

"Why did you leave me to Brother Aarav!" abrine protests.

"Then? Where do you want me to put it? In the daycare?" el said indifferently.

Abrine snorted bitterly, but did not protest again.

Now El will fly to Germany and Abrine will have to let him go.

"I'm leaving first, don't miss me!"

"Ih...." Abrine chirped when he heard El's words that he thought were a joke.

Aarav again noticed the behavior of the two, that's where Abrine realized something. He recalled that Elrich's father suspected their relationship because they argued frequently, so Abrine refused to repeat the same mistake, making Aarav suspicious.

Just as Elrich wanted to turn away, Abrine immediately pulled the man's wrist.

"What else? I haven't left and you've missed me?"

Abrine glared at Elrich due to his words of origin.

Elrich laughed at Abrine, at which point Abrine felt something unusual raging in him. For some reason, suddenly he felt heavy to let go of Elrich today.

"Why? You're not willing to let me go?" guess Elrich, more to mock Abrine's silence.

Plaque!

Abrine hits the man's arm, causing Elrich to complain in pain.

"You hit me with deep energy? It hurts so much" complained El. "Here you go, I'm leaving!" he said again while rubbing the side of his hand that Abrine had hit.

"Felt! Don't like to joke no-no!" mummified Abrine.

"Wait a minute" stop it.

"What?" Elrich looked astonished.

"Kiss my forehead!" abrine's word whispered a little and now it was Elrich who glared at him due to shock at Abrine's request.

"Hurry now! Don't get me wrong! I just don't want my brother to be suspicious of us. Earlier in the car he was already suspicious of our equally indifferent attitude," urged Abrine rather tiptoe near El's ear, for Elrich to hear his speech. He whispered there.

"You really took a chance, Miss!" muttered El makes Abrine tick.

"I'm the one who gave you the chance, sir!" abrine said while glancing.

Elrich shook his head faintly, he smiled obliquely but then he grabbed both sides of Abrine's face with his fingers, bringing the girl's face closer to him, then hesitantly he finally landed a soft kiss on Abrine's forehead for a few seconds.

Abrine didn't want to feel El's kiss on his forehead. But still, he felt it. The kiss shook his heart. Ah, goddamn. Elrich who is very deep in the role in terms of kissing her today, or he who is too carry this thing up to the feelings?

"Have you?" tanya Abrine wants to make sure at once resuscitate El so that the kiss is immediately stopped because he does not want this for too long, impacting his feelings later, but El does not say, because he did not want to, it just remains in his position that is still quietly peeling Abrine's forehead. No matter what the man was feeling right now, Abrine had no idea.

"Already, El. Later you can miss the plane," kelakar Aarav who did watch the action of the two lovebirds.

Abrine immediately withdrew from Elrich. He did want to show a friendly attitude with El in front of his brother so as not to be suspected, but still he felt ashamed because Aarav to reprimand them even though the reprimand sounded like a joke.

In the end, Abrine actually watched Elrich's back move away from his position. The man's broad steps began to leave him. Again, Abrine's feelings why not be sincere? Nevertheless, he hastily brushed off the taste.

"We're home, brother!" said Abrine invites Aarav with a lethargic face that is not made up.

Elrich arrives in Germany and returns directly to Edgar's villa. He wanted to tell his father that he had the blessing of the Abrine family in Indonesia. His return and the good news were greeted by Edgar with a feeling of happiness. Elrich did not tell his father about Abrine meeting Erika. He felt it was not worth discussing because it was the father's past.

The next day, Elrich returned to work at the Hospital. His arrival was immediately greeted by a slanted smile from Xander.

"So, starting from using it, you finally intend to marry her?" Somehow Xander's question sounded sarcasm in Elrich's ear.

"That's it" answered Elrich accordingly.

"I don't think you've forgotten to say you won't make him hurt later, El."

"This is our deal. We won't use hearts so no one will get hurt."

"really?" xander asked as he stood around intimidating Elrich.

"Have it, I'm willing to work and not to talk about it." Elrich.

"I heard from Yemima that Abrine was heartbroken because of their friend Raymond."

"Then?" Elrich said indifferently as if he did not care about what Xander said.

"I think she agreed to marry you because she wanted to vent her heartache. I just wish you could be the cure for that pain, not make the wound worse!" Xander patted Elrich's shoulder slowly, but Xander's words just now were enough to make Elrich think.

Elrich fell silent, he digested Xander's speech. In a bit, Elrich realized that marriage was not a game, he also realized that the status would bind him and Abrine at once.

Elrich's small heart, hoping Abrine will never find true love as the girl once said, because El wants Abrine to stay with him. Not because of love of course, but it was for his own sake who did not want to bother looking for another figure who would be willing to marry him later. El doesn't need love, El just needs status because of his father's demands.

If Abrine wants him to let go later and if they are really divorced, it is not impossible that Edgar will force him to re-marry. So, rather than repeat it, it's a good idea for Abrine to remain his wife even though he's not sure Abrine will survive with a man like him.

Hhhh

Elrich breathed slowly. One side of his heart, he was very worried from the beginning he used Abrine.

Yeah, Elrich was worried that Abrine suddenly remembered the start of the accident. El can't imagine if Abrine remembers that no one was hit in the incident. Especially if Abrine to remember if Elrich is the real driver. However, all of this begins with Abrine's guilt over the incident.
