Another Chance
Chapter 18

The morning came. Zoya and Nio still closed their eyes so peacefully. The sound of a little boy's laughter was heard in the large room. Several times Rasya patted the faces of his parents cheerfully.

"Mamaaa, reward! Uh!" an anxious laughter with tiny hands that kept patting the faces of his parents managed to wake the couple. Slowly, Zoya and Nio's eyes opened.

"Mah, Pah!" Back Rasya laughed as if happy to see the beautiful scenery since he woke up.

Zoya herself somehow felt so warm and comfortable as if reluctant to wake up. Likewise with Nio, the man felt so peaceful with his hands hugging the most comfortable bolster he had ever hugged.

But, wait. Why does it feel like something is awkward. The two people quickly opened their eyes until they looked at each other.

"Ohhhh!" zoya shouted when she found out that Nio was hugging her. With a reflex, the beautiful woman pushed and kicked the lukewarm until it fell to the floor.

Nio is shocked by what Zoya is doing. So did the unconscious Zoya directly push Nio. The man looked so cold. He moved, then came out of Zoya's room without saying anything, making the owner of the room speechless.

"Am I overreacting?" asked Zoya worriedly. He looked at Rasya who was now staring at him as well.

"Papa was angry" he told the child.

"That?" the boy asked with his head tilted.

If Zoya feels guilty, it is different from Nio who feels sad. Doesn't Zoya want to be touched to the point of kicking and pushing? At first he wanted to apologize for accidentally hugging her. However, Zoya's reaction really hurt her heart.

Forgetting the pain he always felt, Nio moved towards the bathroom. He must hurry to work.

Zoya exits the room after herself and Rasya look fresh. The two walked to the dining room for breakfast.

"Good morning, Madam," Jessica smiled as she looked down respectfully.

"Morning, Jess. Has Mas Nio not come down yet?" zoya asked to sit the baby in the dining chair, especially with the boy's laughter that made Zoya anxious.

"Master's gone, Madam. About thirty minutes ago, not even breakfast," Jessica replied, which made Zoya stop her activity and nodded.

Before long the servants came to prepare breakfast for the mistress and her young master. As always, the food served is a healthy meal that has been well scheduled by a nutritionist at the residence of Nio. Although now not an artist anymore, Zoya always wants to look perfect especially with her body shape. As now, he was eating boiled eggs, as well as oatmeal cooked with tuna fish plus carrots and broccoli. Not to forget the elixir orange juice. Likewise with Rasya who still have to eat refined foods.

Zoya stared at the food in front of her. Is Nio really mad at him? He was not even happy when he went to work.

"Is Mas Nio disgusted to hug my body huh? This body is always touched by the damn man," muttered Zoya grudgingly.

"Are you talking something, Madam?" ask Jessica.

Zoya looked at the butler and shook her head.

With a slightly painful heart, Zoya ate her food. Even the food didn't taste as good at the time of his feelings as it does now.

"Jess," call Zoya.

"Yes, ma'am, what's wrong?" ask Jessica. "Do you need anything?"

"Hhmmmm, if I may know, what is Mas Nio's favorite food? You know, don't you?" ask Zoya.

"Mister's favorite meal?" jessica asked who was answered nod by Zoya. "Master likes to eat anything as long as it's home-made, ma'am," he replied.

"more specific?" ask Zoya again.

"Steak wagyu a5 is a favorite meal of the Master, Madam. She loved it since childhood" Jessica replied.

"Is there meat? I ... I want to make it for Mas Nio," Zoya replied hesitantly. Wanna cook? Oh come on. Even in the kitchen he just passing by or a prank.

"Miss wants to make a steak for Master?" jessica asked in disbelief.

"Yes. Please prepare all the materials. I'll make it for lunch" Zoya replied enthusiastically. Just grilling, right? It must be easy, he thought.

But all of this was not as easy as he imagined. Several times he complained when his hand was hit by a grill. Not to mention the heat of the grill makes her smooth white hands redden.

"Madam, let me continue, yes," said the house chef feeling sorry for the injured mistress and now being treated by Jessica.

"no need. It's just about to mature, right. Let me just." Zoya moves on after having her hands bandaged and also returns to wearing new rubber gloves.

Zoya is really trying to make lunch for Nio as an apology for this morning he kicked her. She did not want her relationship and her husband to return cold.

Zoya smiled happily at the results of her cooking. The best quality wagyu steak really looks appetizing even though it is a little charred. Especially with black pepper sauce and boiled vegetables that make worms in the stomach rebel.

With a happy heart, Zoya arranged everything in the lunchbox. It is so beautiful.

"Jess, give me a pen and sticky notes" Zoya told her butler.

Jessica came and handed him the thing. With a smiling face Zoya wrote something.

"Ready!" exclaim Zoya happy.

"Jess, I'm taking Rasya. I'll be ready. My body stinks of roast meat" said the beautiful woman with a small laugh, then stepped into the room singing cheerfully.

Jessica smiled at her mistress who was now completely different. The young lady now looked cheerful, unlike the old days who only showed a flat face and was very grumpy.

"Young Master, you must be happy to see that mama who is like now, right? Hopefully the relationship with Tuan can also be better," said Jessica looking at her young master who laughed cheerfully patted Jessica's shoulder.
