WIFE FOR UNCLE ADRAS
Surprise For Adras

Ayu swallowed her saliva as she looked at the man standing near the entrance of the company. "That's your husband?"

"Yes." replied Jelena timidly. He did not want Adras to listen.

"Yes Allah. That's the guy I saw at the cafe 2 weeks ago."

"Permin Adras."

"Kok you didn't say the hell that famous pilot was your husband? You don't want to look at all the good-looking men here."

Jelena smiled. "I'll go first...."

"Have a good time."

Jelena approached Adras who was sitting on a concrete bench.

"Have you waited a long time?" ask Jelena.

"It's also only been 20 minutes." Adras replied as he glanced at his watch. 2 weeks they parted ways and when Adras got the schedule here, the guy was very happy.

"How's the flight?" jelena asked as the two started to step up.

"Fluent. It's only natural that there's a little turbulence."

"Oh, is that it? Have you eaten?" ask Jelena.

Adras grabbed his wife's hand. "I miss you so much."

"I asked another question, and he answered another." Jelena did not withdraw her hand held by Adras.

"I miss anyway. About eating later." said Adras then kissed Jelena's hand in his grasp.

Jelena's face flushed. "We go eat yuk!" bring Jelena.

"Where?"

"I want to eat all the Korean cuisine here. I haven't eaten since noon."

"alright. I'm really hungry anyway. But shouldn't we cook?"

"I'm not good at cooking Korean food."

"All right." Adras. For sure he wants to spend his time with Jelena today. Tomorrow at noon he has to leave again and there are still a few new weeks he will come back here.

Both of them stopped by a small restaurant but many visitors. After eating, Jelena took Adras to take pictures in several places. Adras became happy because Jelena already looks friendly to him. Some of them posed with Jelena's hands hugging Adras' waist. They also eat some typical Seoul snacks.

"You ate a lot today. Not afraid of her stomach exploding?" ask Adras. The two were on their way home and Jelena managed to hug Adras' arm.

"The apartment is still far away? Shouldn't we just take a taxi? I'm afraid you're tired." Adras said as he wrapped his hand around Jelena's shoulder.

"No. I'm still strong, really. I want to go for a walk tonight because most of these places I haven't been to even after almost 2 months here."

"We'll still have plenty of time when I come again."

"I want it tonight" said the spoiled Jelena and approached a roadside merchant selling boiled beans. They enjoyed the beans together.

***********

At half-meat, the two arrived at Jelena's apartment.

"What time is the plane leaving tomorrow?" ask Jelena.

"On the flight schedule at 1 hour past 15 minutes. We will transit in Singapore to Jakarta."

"You must be tired, huh?"

Adras smiled. "Capek. But if I see you, the fatigue is gone."

"Start again on the lebay." Jelena pokes Adras' waist. Her husband chuckled. The two eventually arrive at Jelena's apartment.

Adras drove Jelena in. "Na, are you cleaning up?" ask Adras. He saw that some of Jelena's belongings were gone and there were two suitcases placed near the bed.

Adras frowned. "You want to move? Whither? I won't be able to see you again when I come here?"

"I'm going to move to a bigger house. So that if you come, you can be more comfortable."

Adras. He hugged Jelena and kissed the top of his wife's head. "Actually I want you to stay in Jakarta just so I can always be close to you."

Jelena just smiled. He let go of Adras' embrace. "It's late. You better go home."

Adras. "Let's call when I'm gonna take off, okay? I want you to pray for me."

Jelena nodded then drove Adras to the door.

"Good night....!" Adras kissed Jelena's forehead and then her lips. After that Adras stepped up. He will try to be patient with everything. He was sure, someday, he would get Jelena's heart back.

***********

"Good day, captain." Sapa Mutia, the current flight cabin crew chief. A 32-year-old mother.

"Good afternoon. How many passengers are we currently on?"

"All 330 people, cap. 165 people will go down in Singapore and there are 142 who will go up from Singapore" Mutia said as she read the note.

"alright. Let's get all the cabin crew. We will meet and pray together." said Adras.

This was indeed a habit that Adras got from his seniors back then. Before they begin their work, they should always pray.

There are 8 cabin crew on duty at the moment. Finished praying according to their respective beliefs, Adras went straight into the cockpit. They made early preparations.

"Here's your coffee" said Wulan, one of the flight attendants.

"Thank you." Adras does need coffee at this time because he knows the trip today is quite tiring. Later in Singapore Adras will exchange positions with captain Ben.

Remembering Jelena, Adras came out of the cockpit. Some passengers have already started to enter the plane. Adras contacted Jelena's phone but was inactive. He's a little upset. However, as he turned to enter the cockpit again, Adras was surprised to see Jelena who had just entered the plane while looking at Adras while blinking one eye. Adras would speak but Jelena placed her index finger in front of her lips as a sign that Adras was silent. He then lifted his phone. Adras understood. He entered the cockpit with a heart that soared with happiness. Jelena's coming home with him? What a pleasant surprise. Jelena looked weird last night. Apparently he wanted to spend his last night in Korea by visiting various places in Seoul that they had never visited.

"What's up, Kep? It looks so happy?" ask his first officer named Gerald.

"I'm happy."

"Reason?"

"Something I can't explain for being too happy." Adras said then immediately opened his phone when he heard that there was an incoming message on his phone.

surprise, right, baby? I didn't tell you on purpose. I have decided to move to Jakarta again. To your house, where there's Santi and Sofia there. Take the plane well, will you? See you in our room. Can't wait to hug you.

It was inconceivable how Adras was feeling at this moment. He was eager to meet Jelena and embrace her right now. But he tried to be patient and hold himself back. If you have arrived in Jakarta, Adras will not bring Jelena home. He wanted to keep the girl in the hotel room so as not to be disturbed by Santi and Sofia.

Airline rules also prohibit a pilot from carrying his or her core family while he or she is carrying a plane. Hence Adras kept silent to hide Jelena's identity.

Look out for you, I won't let you get out of my bed when we get to Jakarta.

Adras replied to Jelena's message. And soon Jelena's reply came in.

Do whatever you want to me, captain. I'm resigned. Right now, just take the plane safely to the destination.

And the plane finally took off perfectly. Leaving us a sunny Seoul this afternoon.

The auto pilot is active. The three pilots talked about the weather which according to the record a little rain when entering Singapore.

Just half an hour away, Adras got emergency information directly from the Korean police in collaboration with ETC Seoul officers.

"Captain, on the plane you have infiltrated 5 members of the North Korean Mafia. They seem to be hijacking your plane because their leader is currently being held by the Singapore government for the murder of one of the officials there. We ask you to remain calm, because on the plane there are also 2 members of our team who are actually on a trip to Singapore for another mission. We ask that you and the entire crew work together to get in touch with any of the officers. They're VVIP class passengers."

Adras was shocked to hear the information. His mind was immediately fixed on Jelena who was in the economy class. *The heart of Adras seems to stop beating.
