Louis and Anisa

Next day. Back to Louis's apartment. The beautiful woman with a black negligee appears to be in the kitchen with a handsome man who now looks engrossed in his cooking activities.

Today Louis is closing Susi's Bik. She wants to spend time with Anisa. If yesterday they spent time together outside the apartment, then today, he wants to spend time alone with Anisa inside that apartment.

As usual, their activities today began with a series of worship from before dawn until the sun rose. After that, the two began to cook breakfast. The pregnant woman wanted to eat fried rice this morning. Louis decided to make the food for Anisa. But instead of cooking smartly and deftly, the man actually broke the kitchen that was originally neat.

The kitchen was not Louis' favorite place. The goods inside were also not very familiar Louis. Breaking an egg from its shell alone he could not. The shell actually mingled into one with the contents of the egg, making Anisa can only shake her head. Louis did not understand at all about the good and correct cooking procedures.

"She, what else is there to enter? No water packs?" asked Louis, who was busy stirring the rice in the pan.

"We're gonna make some fried rice, Louis. Not congee!" said Anisa who seemed to take some dishes there.

"Not using water?" ask Louis again.

Anisa chuckles. "No need. It's just a matter of waiting" said Anisa.

Louis stared at the fried rice in front of him as he moved the spatula in his hand. Though he thought he had stirred the rice from earlier, but why not ripen too, thought Louis. He really has no talent for cooking. In his entire life, he never came into contact with this kind of kitchen equipment. His life is only concerned with files, pens, and laptops.

Louis put down his spatula.

"Cappies, Nis! I'm blush, deh. I can't!" the man said as if raising his hand. Anisa chuckles at hearing it.

"Yes, you can drink it if so, let me cook the fried rice" said the pregnant woman with a black apron wrapped her body.

"okay!" answer Louis. The man then took off his apron and placed it on one of the dining table chairs. He then rushed to make two glasses of orange juice for himself and Anisa. While Anisa now re-stir stir the rice that is almost cooked.

Arrive arrive...

Ting... Kegs... Ting... Kegs...

The apartment bell rings. Anisa and Louis fell silent and looked at each other for a while. Who's coming? Isn't Bik Susi getting shut down today? Think Anisa.

"Who, huh?" ask Anisa.

Louis was silent for a moment. "You continue, let me open,” said Louis.

Anisa nodded. The woman then continued her activities, while Louis now walked to the main door of his apartment unit and opened the door.

Chequek...

Door opens.

Louis remained silent. He saw that Betrand was standing behind that door all by himself. Staring flat at the handsome man who was none other than his own cousin.

Louis is still not moving. He stared at Betrand. It seems like he expected this. Sooner or later one of his family will definitely come to this apartment to look for him.

"What's wrong?" ask Louis.

"What do you need?" louis asked without allowing the cousin to enter his luxurious residence.

"Don't I come in?" ask Betrand.

"Lo want to get into my apartment? There's a village girl here. Maybe you're allergic," said Louis sounded a little bad, making Betrand also now appear to lift his chin. Louis became so annoying after getting to know Anisa.

"Lu now salute, huh?!" Betrand.

Louis did not answer.

"Gue's just here......."

"Louis, who's coming?" The soft voice managed to make the two men turn their heads towards the source of the voice. Seen there, Anisa who is still wearing an apron on the body appears to appear from the kitchen. The woman then fell silent when she saw the figure of Betrand who was now looking at her arrogantly.

Anisa looked down while smiling. He looked towards Louis.

"Why wasn't he asked to come in?" the woman asked so softly and sounded cold in Louis' ears. Making the man look towards Anisa who now looks smiling sweetly there.

"Please come in, sir," Anisa said later to Betrand.

Louis did not react. While Betrand now looks silently staring at the appearance of a pregnant woman who looks so simple.

Betrand then raised his chin, he then nodded, a sign of agreeing to the woman's invitation to enter Louis' apartment.

Anisa smile. The three humans then entered the luxurious apartment.

"We're having breakfast, sir, have you had breakfast? Want to have breakfast together?" ask Anisa.

Betrand opened his mouth. He was about to answer Anisa's words but Louis cut her off.

"Name Betrand, Nis. He's my cousin, not your master. Call me Betrand!" louis said expressionlessly.

Anisa was silent for a moment. "Oh, sorry," said the woman.

Betrand took a long breath. "I'm not hungry. I came here just to meet Louis. I want to tell you, that Grandpa is sick, he keeps calling his grandson's name who hasn't come home since yesterday!" betrand said as he turned to Louis at the end of his sentence.

Louis was silent.

"If you'd like, I hope Louis is willing to go home to see the old Grandpa who raised him. The old man was already used to living side by side with his beloved granddaughter!" added Betrand.

Anisa remained silent. He stared at Louis and Betrand in turn. There seems to be a problem going on in Louis's family. And maybe that's also why Louis a few days ago came to his apartment with a lethargic face and then stayed at the place to this day.

"I'm done with my needs. I'm saying home. Please continue your friendly activities both!" betrand sounded a little bad. The man then swung his legs, moving away from the place.

Anisa quiet. He lowered. From the words and attitude of Betrand, it seems that the man does not like it. That guy must be thinking like that about him. Living with a man without marriage. Although in reality he never did anything like Louis.

Anisa moves her hand rubbing a gentle swab of her distended stomach. Louis approaching. The burly hand touched the beautiful woman's face and lifted her to look up at her.

"Not to be dizzy. We're having breakfast, yuk!" said Louis.

Anisa quiet. He then smiled and nodded. The two then returned to the dining table and began eating their morning meal together.
