Giving Birth to My Brother
37. Ask Elin for Explanation

Sinta flipped through the pages of Elin's diary until she was fed up. For him, Elin was like a stalker because he secretly took a photo of Ariel, printed it and stored it in a media book like this. In fact, there are several pages that contain expressions of love Elin on Ariel.

Sinta paced around for a while, she wanted to ask Ariel directly. He wondered if Ariel knew that Elin had loved him for a long time. Sinta almost presses the call button on Ariel's contact, but she undoes her intention. He is also worried that Ariel has the same feelings for Elin.

"No way!" Sinta screeched furiously. "Mas Ariel couldn't have liked Elin."

Sinta took the diary and left the room. He did not care if his bed was still messy with Gladis' novels. He just wanted to talk to Elin.

Without knocking on the door, Sinta barged into Elin's room. Suddenly, Elin who was about to send an email containing his resignation letter was shocked. Elin stood quietly to welcome Sinta's arrival. Since Sinta was angry with him because he was considered to steal Ariel's attention, he hasn't talked much with Sinta. And now, Sinta looked very angry at him.

"What's up, Ma'am?" asked Elin nervously.

Sinta smiled obliquely. He held up the gray-covered diary. Both of Elin's eyes immediately glared at the book. Of course he did not know how the book could be in Sinta's hands. Clearly, he was shocked to death.

"You know what this book is, right?" ask Sinta. In front of him Elin just froze. Both of Elin's hands held on to the back of the chair behind her back. "So, have you loved Mas Ariel for a long time?"

"I .. can be clear," said Elin, extending her hand to the diary. Sinta pulled fast so that she could not grab it.

"I told you, you can't fall for Mas Ariel after you marry her. But ... You turned out .. You have more feelings for Ariel. What do you want? Why did you accept the deal? You want to make Mas Ariel like you too?"

Sinta is very angry now. If Elin had no feelings for Ariel at all, maybe she could be patient until the day the baby was born. However, if Elin turns out to love Ariel, she herself is afraid. He did not want Ariel to turn away from him.

Elin shook her head loudly in front of Sinta. "No, Ma'am. It's not like that," he said trembling. "Sister Ariel never loved me. Take it easy, Ariel is just love with Ma'am. I know that."

"How can I believe it? You really love Mas Ariel until you write a gini kayak journal! You're horrible!" hardik Sinta's. He opened the pages of Elin's diary. "Since you were Junior High, you have loved Ariel. And until now? Do you like my husband?"

Elin's tears shed instantly. "Reverse book. Pli. Ariel doesn't know anything about my feelings, so. I'm gonna burn it."

"You want to tell me the evidence?" ask Sinta in a reproachful tone. "Jawab be honest my question! Do you still have feelings for Mas Ariel so you want to marry siri to her?"

Elin swallowed hard. If she nodded, Sinta would definitely be angrier, but if she refuted, Sinta might not believe her.

Elin rubbed her wet cheek. "Love I've never been reciprocated" he said. "Sister Ariel is just in love with you, Ma'am. He will not share his heart for me. He just took me as a sister. So, turn the book! I'm gonna throw the book away so Ariel never finds out."

"I want you to go!" shout Sinta. In front of him, Elin looked at Sinta in disbelief. "I never should have lived here! You stayed here so you could get close to Mas Ariel right? In fact, you can contract. I should have known, you have no good intentions here!"

"Mbak Sinta do not misunderstand," said Elin who felt this conversation was getting less complicated. "I'll definitely go. After the baby's born, I'm leaving."

"Good! Don't you ever nongol again in front of Mas Ariel!" snapped Sinta.

Elin again shed tears from Sinta's snapping. "I've had the same feelings for Ariel for years. I never wanted Ariel to know. Sinta's mother calmed down, if I had bad intentions for Ariel, I would have done it a long time ago. Even before the same sister married.

"But I was self-conscious, I was the child raised by Ariel's parents. Until any moment, I will never be able to be the same Brother Ariel. Don't be angry. I don't want Ariel's household to fall apart. I always want to see Ariel happy with you, Ma'am. So, plis, let's throw that book away, "elin's pinta.

Sinta rubbed her face rough. He can't trust Elin anymore. "I save your words, once the baby is born, you should leave here even though Ariel is holding you back. Understood?"

"Yes. I'm leaving" said Elin. His heart was so sad when he said that. However, he knew, if he continued to be here, he himself would be even more injured. "Where did Sinta get that book? Why does the book exist with you, Ma'am?"

Sinta smiled obliquely. "It's none of your business! Clearly, I already know your rotten secret! I'll burn this book myself. I don't want Mas Ariel to know either" Sinta said. He looked around Elin's room. "Is there any more such books? Do you store specific folders on your laptop and phone?"

Elin shook her head slowly. The phone was damaged in the accident and could not be recovered. But on his laptop, he still keeps some photos of Ariel with him.

"Don't be spoiled again the same Mas Ariel on the grounds you're pregnant! I'll be mad if you do that. Remember, you are pregnant just because of a covenant. You are indeed Mas Ariel's second wife, but you are not entitled to Mas Ariel's love!"

Elin felt her heart being squeezed. He could not breathe because of the pain running through his heart. He looked at Sinta who had just turned her body and came out of the room. Elin's body immediately slumped to the floor. He did not know how Sinta could get his diary. He was sure he had lost the book somewhere, he himself had forgotten. However, he never found the book.

Elin then remembered, Ariel and Sinta had just visited their parents' house. So, it was likely that Sinta got the book there, but where? If in his own room he did not find the book, was it on Ariel, his mother, his father or Gladis?

Elin massaged his forehead riled up. Elin recalled, Gladis most often went into his room and took things he liked.

"Do you know Gladis?" muttered Elin while squeezing the end of her dress.
