“Why you?” Ask Thea to Xavier.
Xavier kept silent at the window looking around the apartment like he was stalking something.
Thea was still looking at the alert man while enjoying her breakfast.
“This window can be locked right?” This time Xavier moves to Thea's bed and checks the window next to Thea's bed.
“Can. It's just that I prefer to open it, because the air in this room is often stuffy. Maybe because it's not too big. Is something wrong?” Thea approaches Xavier with a sandwich in her hand.
He watched the window of his room.
Instead of answering, Xavier bit Thea bread and chewed it with pleasure.
“Enak.” Praise him with a smile. The mayonnaise stain was still left at the corner of her lips.
“Taste me good. I rarely cook. So enjoy it while I cook and don't just take care of the window.” With her fingertips Thea rubbed the mayonnaise on Xavier's lips.
Xavier quickly grabbed Thea's hand and licked the fingertip. Like not willing the rest of the food on lap Thea.
“Jeez, you're like a child.” Decik Thea turned around. He was biting back on his sandwich in a misbehavior. Just look at her smiling lips, along with the time she bit her sandwich.
“I'm serious, from now on you have to lock it. Or do we just move to a safer place?!” bargain Xavier who follows Thea. He sat in the dining chair waiting for Thea to answer her request.
“No! I can't leave without a reason. This place is very comfortable anyway. The owner, Miss Emily, was very kind to me. Even he who offered me to stay here, in the past I was hard-earned to find a place to stay. So, if you want to move, move on your own.” Reject Thea with certainty.
Xavier only looked at Thea for a while, it seemed like it would be very difficult to get Thea out of here.
"Yes already. But from now on you have to lock the windows and doors. Don't just let it open." Pinta Xavier is serious.
“Indeed, what are you really wary of? Allen's Arrival?” Thea repeated the question that Xavier had not answered.
“Eem, no! I'm just afraid there's a little animal getting into this apartment.” Timpal Xavier. He did not know what to explain and chose to start enjoying sandwiches made by Thea greedily. He thought, for a while it's better he didn't tell me about Asher's arrival last night.
“You are very strange. In this apartment lives a wolf, where might there be small animals that dare to enter here?” Thea smiled slightly at the end of her sentence.
“I'm no longer Thea's wolf. My curse has been broken.” Timpal Xavier doesn't like it.
“Oh yes? But your way of eating is still like a wolf.” Thea LEDek.
“How can it?” Xavier looked at Thea questioningly.
“Your way of eating is very messy Xavier. Your mouth is filled with mayonnaise, like a child just learning to eat.”
“Then how should I eat, to look right?” Xavier looks frustrated to hear Thea's words.
“Eat with mouth closed.” Thea bit her sandwich and then chewed it quietly.
“Well I explain.” Timpal Thea after swallowing his food.
“What is meant by eating with the mouth closed is, when chewing the mouth does not make a sound or taste. It is considered disrespectful, disturbing, even tends to be a thing that is considered to reduce the appetite of others who hear it.”
“In addition, eating with your mouth closed can also reduce the risk of choking due to the push of air entering through the mouth when eating. Make sure you have chewed and swallowed all the food first before starting to bribe other foods. Understandable?” terang Thea's.
“Good, I tried.” Xavier nodded in understanding.
He took the sandwich and bit it a quarter. He chewed it slowly but the mayonnaise melts remained visible at the corners of his lips.
“Hahaha.. Use this to wipe your lips. Do it quietly like this.” Thea gives an example of how to wipe lips on Xavier.
The man followed Thea despite her efforts looking so stiff. But at least he tried.
“Good. Eat slowly and try to enjoy. Eating it not only to increase our energy but also can make us happy.” Bright Thea.
Xavier nodded his head again and began to enjoy the food.
“Thea, do we not go to work? It's been very noon.” Xavier noticed the sun was getting higher while Thea still seemed to relax.
“No, today I have permission not to enter work.”
“Then what are your plans today? Direct to campus?” Xavier.
“No, I'm off today. So I plan to go home.”
“Where? Isn't your place here?” Xavier scrunched up his forehead not understanding.
Thea turned her head to the calendar that was stuck on the wall. See the black and red lines at the end of the week.
“I'm going home to my hometown. Today is exactly the 25th anniversary of my mother's death.” Thea who smiled crazily. He immediately took out a glass of water and gulped it down to pass the lingering taste in his throat.
Looking at Thea's expression that looked sad, Xavier no longer chimed in. He brought the tissue closer to Thea and made the girl smile.
“I don't need it Xavier. I've been very accepting of my parents' departure.” Said Thea with a breastplate.
His bouncy fingers tapped on the edges of the glass while remembering that he had not been back to his hometown for a very long time. I don't know what the conditions are like there right now.
“Good. You are not fit to be sad for too long.” Xavier's timpals are engrossed in his food.
Thea took a small nod, then gulped down the water in her glass without taking her eyes off Xavier. This man was indeed quite amusing and accompanying him.
