Tian who is still loyal to watch over Arini with all the busy cooking when his phone rang again. And he sighed softly as he spelled in the heart a row of familiar names on his phone screen.
‘Rico Chandra Wijaya’
‘You moreover the heck she is.?’
Tian decided not to heed the call until the ringing was over. But after a few seconds the phone went off again, as if to confirm that the caller was really persistent not to be ignored.
Arini who was initially busy checking the results of her impromptu cooking that seemed almost finished was finally a little disturbed, while the caller's effort was not there because after the ring was back after the next second Tian's phone rang again, this time changed with the sound of whatsapp notification.
“Why not raised ?” Arini could no longer hide her curiosity.
Tian did not reply but suddenly frowned. His brain suddenly dizzy, not only because he heard the sound of Rico's call so noisy but when he saw whatsapp message content Rico, which is none other than the photo door access front door of Tian's apartment, but when he saw whatsapp message, that means the man is currently right in front of the door of his apartment.
“What's the. ?”
Tian's phone rang again.
“Sstt..” Tian clings his index finger for a moment to Arini's lips, hinting him not to pass the sound, but Arini's heart is mad to find the movement.
After successfully silencing Arini then Tian dared to shift the green color icon on the screen of his phone, his voice was heard greeting slowly.
“Halo, Co ?”
“Quick open the door ! I know you're in your apartment !”
“Eh ? No.. no. I'm not in the apartment, I'm outside right now.” seems to hide the panic.
“Really, ?”
“Of course ! You... why look for me ?”
“So now to come to your apartment alone I should need a reason ?!”
Tian fell silent, thinking about how he could get Rico out of his apartment door.
Rico is often like this, coming through the Tian apartment has become a habit of Rico. Even if Tian wasn't around even his best friend could freely invade Tian's apartment. But that was before Tian hid his identity who had married Arini and hid his wife in this apartment.
“Even now you change the password door access your apartment. What the fuck is this ?! wahh, Tian.. You really have turned into an outrageous companion !”
“Sori, Co., I'm not going home tonight because there's still a lot of business to do while tomorrow morning I have to fly to Singapore,” finally Tian finds the right reason to distract Rico.
“You're going to Singapore ?”
“Yup, before shubuh I should already be at the airport.”
“Huhh, alright.”
Tian breathed a sigh of relief.
“When are you back, ?”
“I don't know for sure. As always, it depends on the negotiation. If it lasts alot of course requires extra time longer than the schedule that has been determined,”
“Ooo,”
“So ?”
“Abanya ?”
“Are you going home now ?”
“No,”
“Eh.. what is ?” Tian grazed. “Why not just go home.?” his his hiss just popped out involuntarily.
“So is his intention to expel me ? cih.. outrageous..!”
Tian scratched his non-itchy nape. “B-Not so I mean, Co.”
“I will spend a few hours first before returning home.”
“Then where are you going?”
“Entahlah.. clearly I can not spend the next few hours by standing at the door of your apartment like a fool.”
Tian feels bad for lying to Rico like that because Tian knows exactly that his best friend is in the thorny heart problem of his relationship with Lila. But what else ? Even now Tian is also trying to get out of the same problem so inevitably he has no other choice but to deceive Rico ruthlessly.
“That's Mr Rico ?” arini asked half a whisper as Tian had already pocketed his phone again. From that moment he only listened to Tian's expression, who was looking for an excuse while trying to avoid Rico.
“Hemm.”
“Pak Rico is still ahead?”
“It looks like it's gone now,”
Arini was silent for a moment. Thinking that Tian should lie to his best friend like that is of course because it is preventing Mr. Rico from getting into the apartment and knowing what he is hiding from the rest of the world.
Herself.
Akh, suddenly Arini's heart again feels pained. That the man could not even allow his closest friend to know the truth about him made Arini realize something, how sweet today feels so almost made him forget himself. Wish Tian could already accept his presence and open his heart wide, but it turned out..?
‘Haihh.. Don't blame Tian, but blame yourself, Arini ! Besides, if it wasn't for you being too late, where could there be no wind, no rain, this man who is none other than your playboy husband is suddenly drawn to a woman with no advantages like you.?’
It had only been a full day near Tian and received a bit of Tian hospitality, Arini felt her heart had melted like this then how could she live out the next days by living and breathing around this man with a million charms ?
Arini smiled wryly, especially when she realized that Tian had even stolen the first and second kiss in a short time, without rejection from her, without protest from her, without love from Tian, even Tian did not bother trying to seduce him in the slightest like a man who wanted to kiss a woman on the scene of a series of online novels that he often read.
Although in real life the boro-boro kisses, Arini never even dares to date and chooses to reject all the men who have ever expressed love to her because of her father's doctrine to her.
‘Did I look so cheap in front of Tian ? How stupid.know he was just using me earlier why don't I just slap this brash guy. How dare he kiss without permission..! Made me soar sky-high after it slammed her into the earth vilely.!’
“Dreaming what ?”
Arini who regained her senses shook her head slowly. Trying to carve a smile even though surely his smile looks stiff.
“We should eat first. If not the soup was cold.” he said flat while avoiding Tian's gaze in his bead. Arini did not want the annoyance mixed with sadness in her heart could be found Tian so easily because it was definitely clearly drawn on her face at this time.
Tian stepped foot onto the dining table while inwardly swearing at Rico who always managed to make him stray like this.
Lagian Tian also felt astonished, for some reason lately the intensity of Rico in messing up his life like
increasing frequency. Looks like Lila has managed to make her best friend go crazy.
Tian threw his body in the chair while Arini who had just finished serving food on the table had started to spoon rice and soup into the bowl for Tian did not forget he added the pieces of chicken that he had fried earlier.
“Thank you.” Tian greeted the treat, which Arini responded with a faint smile, a little forced, before he sat across the table and started scooping his own food.
They began to eat with the atmosphere of a quiet dining table, only occasionally heard the sound of the clanking of spoons clashing with their respective plates.
“What food is not good?”
“Egh ?” Tian who was slightly startled at the question that suddenly burst into silence shook his head. “T-No, this is delicious,” then he put in one mouthful full of his mouth.
“I think it's not good.” Oozed Arini.
“Why think like that ? I'm not lying, all this is very tasty.” Tian said earnestly.
Arini was silent for a moment. “Then.. why does it look like no taste ?”
Tian speechless.
‘Huhh.. I look not tasteful because this food is not delicious, but because of the presence of Rico who is like a jailkung. Ruin the mood only.!’
Tian murmured inwardly, yet he tried to smile. “I mean it, it tastes so good.”
“Really, ?” arini's voice sounded doubtful.
“Of course, you are now eating it too, you can feel it yourself if it is delicious,”
In Arini's heart allowed. He indeed did not feel anything less than all the taste of this simple cuisine, but Tian's flat facial expression made his heart unruffled into misgivings.
“It seems nice too if you can eat at home often like this.”
“No problem, I can cook every day,” somehow Arini can say that. The sentence seemed to be thrown out of his mouth, making Arini regret why he was so careless, because if Tian's response would be as painful as yesterday's days, it would only make his heart become even more hurt.
“If your cooking is always good like this, it can be.”
Hearing Tian's words like that Arini's heart automatically warmed up immediately. Instantly he forgot that a few minutes ago he was so hurt by Tian's attitude that he easily broke his heart to pieces because he wanted to hide the reality of him from the rest of the world. Arini did not even realize that the look on her face was now even straight.
“Let's just relax.The taste of my cooking is always good, because I am very good at kitchen affairs," so happy to hear Tian's praise unconsciously with a little arrogance about his skills in the kitchen he has spoken without burden.
Again Arini curses his mouth that has already spoken boasting with no idea of shame. He even wanted to pat his chest with pride.
“Oh yes..”
“Hemm..,”
“Then just stop working.”
“Egh ?” instantly stunned.
Arini's facial expression that was originally filled with the remnants of a smug smile immediately disappeared just like that hearing a sentence that was thrown indifferently from a figure that was even cool to chew the food, he said, it was as if the contents of the plate were much more interesting for him to glare than having to look at the face of Arini who had paled before him.
“Iya. Stop working and stay home. Enough to be my wife.”
Arini was silent, looking at the man in front of her who seemed to still focus on enjoying the food in front of her. It seemed Tian did not even realize that his words just now could incise the meaning of a high-level paper in the corner of Arini's heart.
“Indeed not yet your wife.?” the sentence just slurped. Arini even realized too late that he seemed to have been very released after the man in front of her seemed to choke after hearing his words.
