The Substitute Husband's Love

The Substitute Husband's Love
Chapter 7



A few minutes later...


Elle had already finished applying the makeup on her face. He smiled as he looked at himself from behind the small mirror he was holding. "perfect." Elle said when she saw her beautiful face as usual.


As he stared at himself from behind the small mirror, he suddenly heard the sound of the bathroom door opening. When Elle immediately turned her eyes to the bathroom door, she looked very surprised when she saw the husband coming out of the bathroom wearing only a small towel.


"God... Why don't you take your clothes to the bathroom, baby." Elle spoke nervously while closing her eyes with her hands.


Nathan who heard his wife's words immediately stopped his footsteps for a moment, he looked at Elle with a faint smile. "What if I don't bring my clothes?" Nathan asked, returning to his legs, and approached Elle. Nah! More precisely approached his suitcase which happened to be near Elle.


"Emm it's okay. I'm just, like, just surprised to see you're not wearing a shirt." Elle with her faithful hands covered her eyes. Even Elle's tone of voice still sounded nervous.


"From now on you don't have to be surprised anymore when you see I'm not wearing clothes. Aren't we married? So get used to it." Nathan's words with his voice that sounded a little cold made Elle instantly speechless.


"Why did Rendra's tone of voice turn cold like that? Even before we got married, Rendra's voice was always soft when talking to me. So why has it changed now? Is Rendra still feeling upset and angry with her twin sister?" Inner Elle wondered. While Nathan, he was seen opening his suitcase and he did not care at all about Elle who just fell silent without answering his words earlier.


After a few seconds passed, Elle finally began to emit her voice back with both hands still covering her eyes. "Darling, are you still angry with your twin sister?" Elle asked Nathan to immediately stop his activity which is currently buttoning his white shirt.


"Alright, baby. Already angry with you, maybe your twin brother does have a very important business so that he can not attend our wedding. So, don't be mad anymore." Elle spoke again when she did not get any answers from the man she thought was Rendra.


Nathan let out a rough sigh, at once he changed the look of his face as before. "Don't talk about him again, you better get ready, because today we're going home." Nathan tried to soften his voice like his twin sister.


"Emmm... Home where? Go to your parents' house or go home... "


The two of their eyes clashed with each other for a few seconds, until finally Nathan turned his eyes to the other direction, then he said back with his voice that came back cold. "Hurry up, get your stuff done, and then we go home."


"What stuff, baby? I just took my shirt with me, and I didn't take it out of my suitcase." Elle always spoke in her soft tone, even though Nathan said in a cold tone.


"Your dirty clothes. You're not taking him home?" Nathan asked as he folded his shirt up to his elbow and that certainly made Elle feel a little strange. Usually Rendra never folds his shirt up to the elbow like he does today.


"Why are you silent! Didn't you hear what I just said?" Nathan spoke again when he saw Elle who was just silent like a statue.


When Elle immediately woke up, he smiled as he moved from the sofa chair. "I heard it, baby. You don't have to say cold like that. It doesn't look like you at all." Said Elle while gently rubbing Nathan's handsome face, making Nathan speechless. "Why are you so weird after we get married? I no longer hear affectionate calls from you. Are you sorry you married me?" Elle's asking looks sad to make Nathan feel guilty. It turns out pretending to be Rendra is not easy. Think Nathan.


"I'm sorry, sa, which is. Because my cold words have made you sad. And I have no regrets at all for marrying you." Nathan said as he looked at Elle with his warm eyes. In fact, his tone returned soft, just like Rendra, his twin sister.


Instantly the corner of Elle's lips lifted up, then he immediately embraced Nathan's body making Nathan surprised. "It's okay, I understand." Elle in her arms.


"Well, now that we're gone, maybe mom's waiting for us at home." Nathan said as he let go of Elle's embrace and looked at Elle with those still warm eyes.


Elle nodded her head, dragging her suitcase. "Come, baby. But we're looking for breakfast first yes, because my stomach is lacer." Said Elle with her spoiled tone. Nathan just nodded his head, he immediately dragged his suitcase.


Slowly the newlyweds began to move both feet away from the room.


Seriate.
