“Zaara, it's Fiona!” fiona said in English. Forced Fiona to take Arsene's phone and contact Zaara to tell him that Arsene's condition is not okay.
“Ke-why, Arsene's phone is on you?!” zaara asked trembling, her mind filled with various suspicions.
“Sorry, but your husband is in the hospital. After the test, she suddenly collapsed in the kitchen. Joe told me. I think it would be better if you knew, so I searched your number on Arsene's phone,” Fiona explained so that Zaara did not misunderstand.
“Where is Arsene now?!” ask Zaara worriedly.
“She has entered the treatment room and is asleep. The doctor said his endurance is weakened, he needs a lot of fluids. The stomach acid is high. He also had migraines. Looks like he's a little depressed.” Fiona walked back and forth in front of the room where Arsene was being treated.
“Astaghfirullah, O Allah I have to how!” said Zaara in Indonesian language that is not understood by Fiona.
“We will help take care of him!” said Fiona.
Zaara sounded sighing. Don't know what to do. Giving Arsene treatment to the girl opposite her phone certainly made her worry even more severe.
“Here is Joe and John. I told her bedmate, Felix. He said he'd accompany Arsene tonight until he recovers. I'll just monitor them, Zaara!” bright Fiona, who may be worried about her existence on Arsene's side.
“Thank you very much, Fiona! I will owe you all a lot!”
“Alright, I'll call you later. I'll save your number on my phone.”
“Thank you very much, Fiona!”
“Bye!”
Fiona disconnects and stares at Arsene's phone. The wallpaper looks attractive in the eyes of the girl who owns the light brown bead. Arsene and Zaara were smiling broadly as they closed their eyes, their cheeks sticking together. They both look cute and compatible with each other. Fiona smiled slightly and returned Arsene's phone into the sling bag that the young man had always carried.
“You've contacted his wife?” asked Joe who was sitting next to Arsene's mat.
“Already. You have to take care of this child until he recovers, right?! I don't want Zaara to suspect me.” Fiona pointed at her two older sisters.
“Haha. Isn't this your chance to get Arsene's attention?!” john Goda. The curly-haired man had always teased him with Arsene, making the originally small feeling big.
“Stop that, John! I don't want to be third among them. They're a compatible couple, I admit, even though I admire this kid a lot!” Fiona folded her hands in front of her chest while looking at Arsene who was fast asleep with an infusion hose stuck in her arm.
“Yes Chef!” john said passionately.
“Arsene's friend will be here in a few hours. Hopefully this kid's okay. I'll be back at the academy.” Fiona left that room.
“Chef Caldwell has taken care of everything, right?” ask Joe to John.
“Yes, we just have to wait for this kid. Come on Arsene you have to be upbeat, exams are in sight so you can go home and see your beautiful wife!” john looked at Arsene.
Joe nudged his brother's body.
“Why?” ask John Wilson.
“Later he heard!” said Joe.
“Sound what?” john did not understand.
“You said his wife was beautiful.”
“Beautiful isn't it? It was the first time I saw a beautiful Muslim girl like Arsene's wife. I want to have a girlfriend like her.”
“Sst... You're in trouble, John!” Joe nudged his brother again. He looked at Arsene.
Arsene woke up and heard the conversation of his two friends.
\=====
Across the country, Zaara could not help her anxiety. She kept silent, her eyes blank, though her mind kept on her husband. The newly ordered mango juice has not even been touched at all. This worried his other two friends.
“Ra, you're all right?” terry asked to break the daydream.
Zaara looked at him for a moment.
“I'm confused Ry!”
“Bingung because you can not take care of your husband?”
“Iya, and I'm worried because Fiona is there.”
“Emang who the hell is Fiona?” ask Hana.
“He was Arsene's classmate at the academy. He likes Arsene!”
Hana and Terry looked at each other, surprised.
“Portage, you so anxious double!” Terry stirred up his avocado juice.
“If I think yes, you don't have to su’zan. You believe Arsene. Ra?!” hana said strengthen her best friend.
Zaara nodded.
“Fiona your phone, to appreciate you as Arsene's wife. If he has any cunning intentions, he will definitely not contact you.” Hana added again.
Zaara looked at Hana, her opinion was correct. Zaara already holds her commitment to Arsene to trust him, as does the same Arsene who trusts him despite the distance separating. He must not follow his prejudice because it is the whisper of the devil that incites his mind. All she had to do was pray for her husband's recovery, and contact him again later.
“Still, Na! Already heard, you are right. I can't su’zan. Fiona is good and I have to believe in Arsene!”
“It's dong, don't be moody, Ra! We doain let Arsene get well. When the hell did he finish the academy?” ask Terry.
“Ohh means two more months huh?”
“Iya!”
\=====
Arsene sat on his mat staring at the hospital's meal. His body feels better tonight. Last afternoon, he suddenly fainted after his head throbbed violently. He had just done his test. Some chefs who test it, say that the basic souffle is good, tastes good, and is soft as expected. He did not expect to get a good response, even though his body was not good, and after that somehow the pain in his head even increased. As a result, he fainted when he was about to walk out of class.
Arsene bribed the hot potato soup that the nurse had given him earlier. Two of his friends Joe and John have gone home after accompanying him since. While he was alone in the treatment room. Reportedly, Felix will be here after this. He just hopes that he will soon recover properly and does not want to bother his friends.
The phone on the nightstand is shaking. Arsene turned, Zaara contacted him.
“Halo...” he said limp.
“Abang is okay?” zaara asked, her voice sounding trembling.
“Nothing, Honey! I'm just lemes today.”
“Can video call?”
“Bby!”
Zaara changed the call to video mode. Arsene's hair looked messy with a face that looked slightly pale despite a smile remaining curved on his lips. Zaara was seen shedding tears.
“Why cry, Zaara Sayaaang?!”
“Sorry I can't take care of you there.” Zaara.
Arsene widened his smile.
“Do not cry, later say beautiful!”
“Can't stop.” Zaara tried to wipe away her tears that kept pouring out.
“I'm fine! I'm home tomorrow too! Tuh look!” arsene said as he straightened his body and showed his muscles.
“Let me give you a surprise!” arsene said again so that his wife does not worry about him excessively.
“What surprise?”
“If you know it's not a surprise dong its name!”
Zaara pouting.
“Zaara Darling!” call Arsene.
“Mmh.
“You thought of something strange?” ask Arsene.
“While what?!” zaara asked not to understand.
“That nausea, or not feeling well?!”
“No, I'm healthy! Why why?” Zaara did not understand what her husband's question meant.
“Haid smoothly?!”
“Haid?! Tumben that nanya. Haid me smoothly!”
“Three months yesterday had a period?” ask Arsene to make sure.
“Iya!”
Arsene breathed a sigh of relief. He did have time to think about the pregnancy of his wife in the midst of declining business turnover. She is not ready if Zaara is pregnant at this time. God really knows best.
“Alhamdulillah.”.
“Why the hell?”
“No, hehe!” Arsene.
A knock was heard at the door. Felix's coming from there. Arsene told him to come in and let him sit down.
“There's Felix, tomorrow I'll call you again. Sleep well, don't worry about me. Doain aja!”
“Iya Brother. Brother is also cepet healed, and healthy always!”
“Aamiin. Bye Darling, I miss you!”
“Miss you more!”
