Yes. It could be "jealousy" - but I'm betting on "envy".
We, the male species, still have a good deal of primitive emotions left in us and you've been given a jolt that you're not "modern/sofisticated" enough to accept. I'd feel the same way as you. The oldest male (or the only male) still thinks he "rules" the nest. You're in charge or - at least - the one who gets things done and you may not want her (not really) or perhaps you think she's yours simply because you're the "man in the house". In any case there's a flirt going on between the two on you even if it's not very serious and even if it's only on your part. Like I said, your male ego got a jolt. Don't worry. Be proud.
It's normal. If you didn't have those feelings you'd be writing to this forum worried about the possibility of you being "gay".
