ANTIQUE NURSE
Call Me Brother

A warm sweep hit Nina's delicate cheek. Slowly the beautiful girl opened her eyes. A hint of smile expanded on his face as his net caught the handsome face in front of him. Abi sat on the side of the bed with his thumb rubbing Nina's cheek.

“Mas.”

“You sleep well?”

“Hmm.. What time is this?”

“Hour half eight dear.”

“Hah.”

Nina jumped from her sleep until Abi was shocked. His face looked panicked, then he looked towards Abi who was already neatly wrapped in work clothes.

“Mas. sorry I was bad luck. I don't do your work clothes.”

“Ngga. You better take a break. Can I bring breakfast here?”

“Ngga. I want to have breakfast with you. I take a shower first mas.”

Nina was just about to wake up but was back sitting down when she felt pain in her stomach. Holding her stomach that feels wrapped around.

“You why Nin? Stomach hurts? Did Dika hit your stomach yesterday?”

“Ngga mas..my stomach hurts because it came again aja.”

“Ooh.” Abi can breathe a sigh of relief.

Nina tried to stand up then walked slowly towards the bathroom. Abi immediately carried Nina's body making the girl shriek softly in surprise. Abi dropped Nina in the bathroom.

“You want me to take a shower?”

Nina glared at Abi who was only avenged by the ruckus from her mouth. She came out of the bathroom and broke her lover's hair. He opens a wardrobe and takes out clothes for Nina. She shamelessly took Nina's d*lam and put it on the bed. Abi sat himself by the side of the bed, sending a message to someone.

Without him realizing it, Rahma noticed his movements. The woman immediately passed when she saw Abi about to come out of Nina's room. Rahma walked towards the dining room, her hands rubbing the corners of her watery eyes.

“Why ma?” reprimand Teddy who saw his wife's eyes glazed over.

“Abi pa.. Abi we're back. She's been the old Abi, happy mama pa.”

Teddy grabbed the wife's shoulder and grabbed her. He knew very well how the wife felt when she saw Abi slumped. Although the woman always looks strong, but behind it Rahma felt a deep sadness.

Teddy breaks his arms when he sees Juna and Nadia enter the dining room, followed by Sekar behind him. Rahma approached Juna, cupped both hands into the face of her eldest son.

“Juna..thank you for bringing Nina to this house. Nina's presence has brought Abi back. Thank you dear.”

“Abi my sister ma. I'll do anything to make him recover.”

Juna hugged Rahma. Now, who was behind them, hugged Juna from behind. He also felt grateful that his second brother could smile back and was excited to live life as before.

“What is this? Early in the morning have embraced rich teletubbies aja.”

Abi's voice interrupts the novelty of mother and child. Abi's hand seemed to hug Nina's waist while walking towards the dining room.

“You've improved Nin?”

Rahma welcomed her future daughter-in-law. Instead, it was now she who grabbed Nina and took her to the dining table.

“Alhamdulillah udah ma.”

Abi pulls the chair for Nina then pulls the chair next to her. The others were also sitting in their own places. Everyone get ready for breakfast. Bi Sari had prepared various foods for breakfast this time.

“Bi.. have you prepared a replacement for Cakra?” teddy's voice opened the conversation between breakfast.

“Pa already.. But it might still take time to teach him.”

“One year is enough?”

“Two years pa. I asked him to take the master's degree first.”

“Ok. two years.”

“Emang bang Cakra where to go pa?” ask Sekar.

“Mau to pelaminan,” Juna said.

“Whose name?”

“Your name,” sambar Abi.

“Ogah.”

There was another laugh when I heard the answer. Teddy and Rahma are already planning to entrust the company in Japan to Cakra. For them, there is no one more right to help Sekar take care of the company there than Cakra. Regardless of whether Cakra will marry Sekar or not. Juna and Abi did not mind that either.

“When will you find a replacement for Nadia? If he is busy staying in the office, when will you have momongan.”

“This is still the selection stage ma. It's a bit difficult because Nadia wants a male secretary. If women must be over the age of 40 years.”

Nadia pinched her husband's waist. Her face was visibly red-coloured withstanding the embarrassment of getting a seductive look from her mother-in-law.

“Just cepet find a replacement secretary. Mama can't wait to nimang grandson.”

“Quiet aja ma. If it's about that every night, too, effort. Really Not Yang?”

Nadia's face turned red. He just wanted to disappear in front of everyone. Early in the morning her husband managed to make his face red like boiled shrimp twice in a row.

“Yang diligent his business. Don't overtake me,” chirped Abi.

Uhuk..

Nina immediately choked to hear him. Nadia gave a smile, now it was Nina's turn to hold back the embarrassment from Abi's frontal speech.

“Halalin used to make grandchildren,” said Rahma.

“Ya will be dawned again ma. Or now I take aja Nina to BPOM to be branded kosher jidatnya,” seloroh Abi who immediately replied to Nina's punch on his arm.

“Hey.. Bi, what are you doing my employees?”

Juna received a report last night from Kevin that some employees complained about Abi's actions being too harsh when he replaced her on his honeymoon. There are even some employees who get sick because of their stress. Abi replaced Juna for only a week, but the effect was incredible.

“Ck.. employee brother tempe all mental. Just hardened a little bit direct memble.”

“You press them too much, Bi.”

“Ngga also. They are too weak.”

“Se.. You feel at home apprenticed in her office?”

“Lumayan kak, although my hair almost fell out due to the tight deadline schedule and demands of perfect results from the cruel CEO,” Sekar pointed towards Abi.

Teddy and Rahma just shook their heads to see the debate of their children. The atmosphere on the family dining table Wisdom is never lonely. There are things they talk about during the meal.

After breakfast, as usual Nina drove Abi to the front of her car. Fixing it first lay a tie that is slightly slanted. Abi hugged Nina's waist, his eyes constantly looking at the pretty face of his future wife.

“Iya mas.”

“There are people who will meet you.”

“Who's mas?”

“Later you know too. I go first.”

“Iya mas, be careful.”

Nina grabbed Abi's hand and kissed the back of her hand. Abi's heart trembled to be treated so respectfully from Nina. Fahira never did that to her. Abi lands a kiss on Nina's forehead. Then get in the car. Nina remained standing in her place until the car Abi was driving in disappeared, only to enter the house.

Gean rushes towards the rooftop of the office building once Cakra says Abi is waiting for him there. He was quite surprised to hear Abi wanted to meet him there. His heart was pounding unbecoming. His mind kept on remembering whether he had done anything wrong until the Metro East boss wanted to speak to him face-to-face.

Gean arrived at the rooftop. This is the first time he has set foot in the highest place of the office building where he works. It turns out that the rooftop is well laid out. No wonder many employees release their fatigue here. Rooftop is also planted with several trees so that it does not get too hot.

The young man looked at her. Then his eyes caught a sturdy back in the corner to his right. Abi stood behind her with his eyes looking straight ahead. Gean rushed over to Abi.

“Father call me?”

Abi turned his body as soon as he heard Gean's voice. For a moment the eyes of the two met. Abi put on a thin smile looking at the tense face in front of him. He turned his body towards the front. Both hands were put in his pants pocket. Gean stood next to her, waiting for whatever came out of her boss' mouth.

“Do you feel at home working here?”

“Betah pak?”

“What Cakra taught you well?”

“Iya sir. Mr. Cakra taught me many things.”

“Hmm. good. Is he too hard on you?”

“Ngga sir. Pak Cakra is very good even.”

“Have you signed up for your master program?”

“Already sir. I decided to continue my studies at the former campus.”

Abi nodded slowly. He was silent for a moment, trying to find the right words to tell the young man about Nina.

“What's Sekar making it difficult for you?”

“Ngga sir. Bu Sekar is also very good on me.”

Abi chuckles to hear Gean pin the word mother in front of her sister's name.

“Don't call mom, she's two years under you. He is also an apprentice here. She's my sister.”

“Oh bu... uh I mean, Sekar, is the brother of Pak Abi?”

Abi nodded. He turned his body towards Gean. The young man turned his body to face the boss.

“Do your parents still exist?”

“Alhamdulillah there is still sir.”

“How did they call you?”

“Meanour how?”

“How do they call your name? Gean or Anfa?”

Gean gasped at Abi's question. His eyes widened looking at the tall man in front of him. How could this superior of his know about his long-buried identity. Suddenly a concern in his heart, worried that Abi would sue him for using a fake identity into his company.

“Why silent?”

“Hmm. ma.. sorry sir. sa... i.”

“Or I change the question. Would you rather be called Gean or Anfa?”

Gean was silent again. He really does not understand the situation he is in now. Suddenly his throat was dry. His mind guessed who Abi really was, why the man knew about him.

“If I prefer to call you Anfa. Because your name is the same as the name of the sister of the girl I love.”

“Ma.. What do you mean? A.. Do you know my brother?”

“Do you have a sister? Rayi said you were an only child.”

Gean speaks a thousand languages. His mind was completely muddled at the moment and he also did not fully understand the situation that was happening.

“17 years ago, a pair of brothers had to separate because of the tsunami that hit Aceh. Muhammad Anfa, also known as Anfa, was rescued by a couple and placed in an orphanage before being adopted by the Danuardi family. They have an only child named Gean Ardianysah.

Ten years ago, both were washed up in the river. Only one survived while the other died in the river before being found lifeless by local residents. And at this moment standing before me was the child who had survived that time. Gean Ardiansyah aka Muhammad Anfa, right?”

Gean took a few steps back, his head spinning fast. He almost fell down if Abi didn't pull his hand. Abi holds both shoulders of Gean aka Anfa. He stared at this young man before him.

“Anfa... You're right Anfa right?”

Gean was still silent, he lowered his head. Abi shook Gean's shoulder until the young man looked at him.

“You Anfa, right?”

Gean simply nodded, his body trembling withstanding something that was gushing within his chest. For years she had been expecting someone to call her by the name of Anfa. Puddles of water began to appear in his eyes.

“Anfa. Your brother has been looking for you all this time.”

“Kak Nina is alive?” anfa's voice choked withstanding the cries.

“Hmm..he is alive and well. She misses you so much and wants to see you.”

“Kak Nina.. Brother Nina.”

Anfa could not hold back her crying anymore. Her tears just fell to hear that her beloved sister was still alive and looking for her. Abi hugged Anfa, letting the young man cry let out a burden in his heart.

“You want to see your sister?” Abi broke his embrace and looked at Anfa.

“Iya, I want.”

“Let's go see your sister.”

“Thank you sir. Thank you.”

“Kakkak an. Call me brother. From now on, I'm your brother,” Abi slapped Anfa's jaw gently with a smile.

Anfa just nodded. He still can't talk much. His chest still felt claustrophobic with the happiness that was present unexpectedly. Abi embraces Anfa then takes the young man out of the rooftop.

☘️☘️☘️

Yeaaayy Anfa wants to see Nina. Rayi.. prepare your mental🤣.
