Eldric leaned his body in the passenger seat. Joe drives his car at a moderate speed. It has been three weeks since Jakarta-Surabaya round trip.
Even though he was tired. Yet, not once did Eldric say to his wife. Eldric did not mind to go back and forth Jakarta Surabaya because he himself could not be far from his wife and prospective children. It's just that today felt really exhausting.
He just closed his eyes all the way, until it did not feel like they finally reached the mansion.
"Sir, we've arrived" Joe said.
"Hem." Eldric opened his eyes and got out of the car after Joe opened the door for him.
"Master!" peekik Joe's.
Joe's hand is stretched out to help the Eldric who almost fell. However, Eldric prevented it.
"I'm fine." Eldric straightened his body again, he then stepped back in with his shaky steps.
"Mr Eldric must be exhausted" Joe murmured, he then got back into the car to park his car into the garage.
Eldric immediately went into the room to prepare the clothes he would bring to Surabaya. He always prepared his own personal belongings.
Eldric hissed, the man felt a very cold chill, he decided to immediately clean himself with warm water. After a long time in the bathroom, Eldric also lay down on the bed after finishing dressing.
"How many degrees Berto turned on the AC," muttered Eldric while holding his head that felt spinning.
Eldric pulled the blanket over his body. He decided to take a nap before returning to Surabaya.
Meanwhile.
Karina felt uneasy, the husband did not give any news until now. Eldric forbade Karina to wait for him in the living room.
"What's the matter exactly? why didn't he call me?" Karina was tired of looking at her silent phone screen.
Karina bit the tip of her nails, she walked back and forth like a strikaan. Occasionally he peered behind a window mosquito net that led directly to the front of the house.
Karina clucked in annoyance, since this afternoon her feelings have been very unpleasant. Without knowing why Karina was feeling uneasy, she felt that something had happened to her husband but Karina did not know what.
The last time Eldric sent Karina a message, she was going to have a meeting this afternoon and not be coming home late. However, until now there was no news from her husband.
Karina walked up to the big glass window in her room, she flicked away the little mosquito net that covered her gaze. Karina sluggishly leaned her head against the window.
"Babys, where did your Daddy go. Mommy was worried. Why haven't you come home yet? May your Daddy be well," Karina spoke as she gently rubbed her stomach.
Pregnant women often invite their two children to talk. Two, Karina always thought her son was still there, even though one of the lives of her child was no longer there. However, Karina always took the two as if they were still complete.
"You know Daddy loves you both so much, he can't wait for the day to meet you."
Karina gave a small smile, she remembered how every time Eldric asked her when he could meet his little angel.
Karina felt her stomach move, she smiled then rubbed her stomach gently.
"You miss Daddy, Mommy too. I'm so worried about how he is now."
Karina then walked over to her bed. He sat himself on the edge of the bed and grabbed the phone he had placed on the nightstand.
Karina tries to contact Eldric for the umpteenth time. However, nil. It was only the connecting tone that he heard repeatedly. Finally, he decided to call Joe.
One ringtone and the phone is lifted immediately.
"Hello, Good evening Madam."
"Where's El, why didn't he pick up the phone!?"
"That's ...Sir," joe replied nervously and stammered.
Joe took a deep breath before answering the mistress' question. Actually, this is very similar for joe. Eldric forbade anyone to tell his wife about her current circumstances. However, on the other hand joe also did not have the heart to see the state of the eldric and the only person who could overcome everything was the little mistress.
"Joe why are you just quiet?" karina Benthic. He really does not feel calm.
"Sick lady," Joe replied briefly.
Karina's body went limp for a moment. It was fitting that she was worried about her husband's situation since then, but why did the elder not tell her.
"Why doesn't anyone tell me El's sick!" her screams were loud, Karina felt very upset.
"Master forbid us Madam."
Karina's tears just melted away, she couldn't imagine her husband lying weakly in pain.
"How is he doing now?"
"As you know, Madam, you have no one to take care of Mr. El, not even your uncle," replied Joe.
Berto learned of Eldric's situation when he would let him know if his private jet was ready to fly to Surabaya. Berto kept knocking on Eldric's bedroom door. However, as there was no answer Berto finally ventured to enter. He was surprised to find the master who slept by rolling in his blanket, as if he was cold when the AC in the room was not lit.
"Have you called me doctor?"
"Doctor Levina is already here, but Master also refused."
"Joe, get me now!"
"But Madam-But
"Nothing but, pick me up in Surabaya now!" karina.
Joe swallowed his saliva. Karina was as terrifying as Eldric, denying his orders was the same as dealing with Eldric.
"It's been a very night Madam," said joe worriedly.
"Fetch me, do you think I'll just shut up to hear a sick husband. With no one to take care of him, quickly pick me up!"
Karina closed her phone unilaterally. He got up from his seat, stepped into the closet.
"Eldric is stupid, he's sick why he doesn't want to be treated! Why don't you tell me, you fool," grumbled Karina in tears.
He picked up a pink shirt and fur jacket that his mother bought. After Karina was ready to leave her room. He then walked to his parents' room.
Tok.dok..
Karina braved herself to knock on the door. He must say goodbye to his parents.
After knocking on the door, the door finally opened.
"What's up, son? has your husband not come home yet?" ask Siska worriedly.
Her daughter's eyes were puffy, Siska could see that Karina had just cried.
"El is sick Ma, I want to go to Jakarta now," replied Karina.
"Is Eldric sick, but it's very night. How are you going to go there? Mama's not sure your dad's gonna give you permission either."
Karina looked at Siska with her teary eyes. He then held his mother's hand tightly.
"Ma please persuade Papa, I want to take care of El. He does not want to touch anyone, Ma," Karina said with a glass.
"What's this?" tanya Tama who appeared from behind.
