My brother turned out to be my husband
Chapter 34: Kandas.

The sky had changed the night when Albern had just arrived at Elena's house to ask the girl out on a date.

The 21-year-old man got out of the car and approached Elena who was waiting in front of the house with a friendly smile.

"I'm sorry, I'm a little late" Albern said, landing a friendly kiss on Elena's lips.

Elena returned Albern's kiss as usual.

"It's okay, I just finished dressing up, too" said Elena.

This was one of the things Albern liked about Elena. The girl would never let him wait long if he came to the house. In fact, not infrequently the lover who first waited and welcomed his arrival, both inside, or in front of the house like this.

The man entered the house to greet Elena's parents first, and asked for permission to go on a date with their child.

"Be careful, honey. Aunty tipped El, "samantha's message to Albern.

"Well, Aunty," Albern replied, bowing his body.

The two also left home to a luxurious restaurant that had been booking Albern since far away.

...***...

"How's the food? Yummy?" albern asked Elena who was busy eating her dishes calmly.

Elena lifted her head and returned Albern's gaze. "What a son. Thank you for bringing me here" said the girl kindly.

Albern. He took Elena's fork and placed it on the plate, before then tasting her lover's right hand lovingly.

Not only that, the gentle attitude that Albern showed, attentively, the man cleaned Elena's dirty mouth because of the cheese sauce. He also painstakingly helped cut the meat that was on the girl's plate. Occasionally, Albern also stroked and praised Elena's extremely beautiful face.

Getting such little attention from her own lover, it was not impossible that Elena did not feel flattered. However, his feelings were no longer as big as before.

Elena could only look at Albern as she muttered an apology many times in her heart.

Shortly after finishing the main dinner menu, several waitresses then came to their table to pick up empty dishes, as well as serve dessert.

"Eat," said Albern. His eyes looked at Elena meaningfully.

Unsuspecting, Elena ate the gold-plated tiramisu ice cream that became their dessert.

Just the first mouthful, the girl almost choked after feeling something hard stuff stuck in her mouth. Albern swiftly held out a small bowl of water that was provided there.

Elena was surprised when a sparkling object she pulled out of her mouth and fell into the bowl.

It turned out to be a beautiful purple diamond ring.

Albern immediately took the ring and asked Elena to extend her left hand.

"Since the beginning of our relationship, I never wanted to play around, El. Maybe, marriage can't be done right now, but let me tie you to an engagement." Albern stroked Elena's left hand.

"Would you be engaged to me Elena Odelia Wileen?" albern asked with a serious facial expression.

Elena. Guilt began to roll around filling the girl's mind. If there was no Iris in him, he might have been crying happily by now. However, let alone crying happily, a word he was unable to take out to answer Albern's expression of love.

His current thoughts even imagined the figure of Evans and their togetherness in the previous days.

Elena could not hold back her tears anymore.

Seeing that, Albern instead thought that the lover felt overwhelmed by all his actions tonight. Without saying anything more, he pinned the diamond ring on Elena's left ring finger, then hugged her tightly.

Albern laughed and bowed his body. Lovingly the man wiped away the tears that were increasingly flowing down Elena's cheeks.

...***...

Along the way home, Albern realized Elena's slightly more reserved attitude. Actually, he had tried to ignore Elena's attitude, but the suddenly awkward atmosphere in the car made the man unable to resist speaking up.

"What's wrong? You look so moody? Don't you like our engagement?" ask Albern without further ado.

Elena who was staring at the street then turned to look towards Albern. The girl gently stroked the luxurious ring embedded in her ring finger.

"Not that .. I just.. still feel a little shocked and shocked at your actions," Elena replied lying.

Hearing that answer, Albern looked for a place and then pulled his car over there.

"Why stop?" ask Elena.

Albern did not answer. He looked at Elena coldly. Both were silent for a moment.

"El, do you realize, since you woke up, your attitude has changed drastically to me? What was? What the hell happened to you?" A series of questions were asked by Albern without further ado.

"I'm still the old Elena, Al" Elena replied.

Albern laughed. "You can't give El. In fact, when you said that just now, I knew it was a lie."

Elena remained silent.

"I don't know what really happened to you. I try not to be aware of the change and keep going as usual. However, our relationship is getting cold and bland." Albern looks to tighten his teeth.

"It's not so, I—"

"Let me finish what I say first" Albern said.

Elena kontan was silent.

Albern took in his breath which began to feel heavy. "You don't call me anymore, nor do we talk much when we meet. Perhaps, you feel that I'm not serious about this relationship, considering that we've never done anything, therefore, to prove my seriousness, I intend to tie you up!" the man said at length. The thread of disappointment was clearly imprinted on his handsome face.

"However, if you really want to end all this, I will accept. That might just be the best way for both of us. I don't want to see you so constrained to a relationship with me, but, please .. tell me the real reason, El!" Albern looked at Elena with a demanding look.

Hearing Albern's words, Elena cried. "I don't know, Al. It all just happened. You won't understand once I explain everything right."

Albern looked at Elena covered in wounds. The girl's answer, indirectly justifies her suspicions all along.

"Who's El? Who is the man who has replaced my position in your heart?" insist Albern.

The man guessed that there was a man who faithfully accompanied Elena during her coma, although Albern never saw the person at all, considering that he came to the hospital quite often.

Elena shook her head. "I don't know, Al. It's hard for me" said the girl.

"It's hard for me, too, El!" exclamation Albern.

Elena jerked. The girl took off her engagement ring an hour ago pinned down Albern, and placed it on the car's dashboard.

"I'm sorry." It was only Elena's last words before actually leaving Albern alone.

Albern shouted while banging on the steering wheel of his car. He even threw the ring off the dashboard of his car.

"I'll never let you go, El. You're mine!" albern exclaimed coldly, while continuing to stare at the figure of Elena who had disappeared from before him.
