“Risoles which was it?” alan asked when he saw the bag of former risoles that he first bought, was empty.
“Udah up.” Anna smiled broadly.
Alan scratched his head even though it wasn't itchy. In fact, the risoles that Anna says are very large, ludes are eaten alone without chilli. Then why rule over Alan nyariin cabe? Alan did not want to ask that question, just swallowed in the heart.
Now Alan's wife was like a starving man who had not eaten for three days. Anna devours the risoles Alan just gave her with a spread of chilli.
“Anna, you don't eat chilies much, entar mules, kasian debaynya.”
Anna smiled. “The policy, delicious, anyway. This time, I asked to make warm tea, yes! It feels like my body is getting a little cold after drinking the cendol earlier.”
Alan did not protest with Anna's strange demeanor. Anna is more spoiled than ever. And Anna was proud to see Alan obeying her will.
“Mas Alan, I want..”.
“What?” cut Alan. His brows furrowed, afraid that Anna would molest him with another strange request. It's not weird, but it's weird.
“If I recover later, I want us to refresh where it is.”
Alan smiled. “Kirain kepengen food again.”
“You are not sincere yes I mintain please nyariin food?” point at Anna while pointing at Alan's face.
Alan caught the index finger thrust towards him and grasped it tightly. “Ikhlas. Okay, we'll refresh. Where do you want to go? To Hong Kong, to Italy, to Paris, New York, Singapore, London, Israel? Where?”
Anna likes Alan's enthusiastic style. He also began to think. “To Israel what to do? War?”
Spontaneous Alan laughed. The pregnant wife was instead offered a walk to a conflict country.
“Yes where do you want to go?” ask Alan.
“Ke Bali.”
Alan's eyebrows twitched, astonished. After she offers places that are all overseas, Anna chooses in her own country.
“I kangen Bali. I want to remember our wedding in Bali.”
“Ooh.” Alan nodded. Anna respects their marriage.
“Mas Alan.”
“Yes? Anything else I can help you with?”
“I just want us to keep this wedding. This wedding is sacred, dear.”
“Ya, sure.”
“No stains, no lies, no quarrels that make us hate each other. If there is a problem, we should talk about it carefully. I want us to love each other until we grow old. It is too heinous to break the sacred bond of our marriage.”
Anna's words riveted Alan. Anna was so serious about saying those words that Alan felt sued. Anna's deep gaze made Alan stare back intensely.
“Sure,” whispered Alan.
“How about Cintya? When are we gonna see him? When did you solve your problem with her?”
Alan remained silent.
Anna started to fidget at Alan who was just silent. “Do you love her?”
“I love you.”
“I asked Cintya, do you love her?” repeat Anna. “Do you hide away still see him often?”
“Nggak.”
“When was the last time you met him?”
“Mmm..
Anna was disappointed. “You said no longer see him, but you also admitted to meeting him.”
“Yes, I went to his house to look for you,” Alan replied.
“What am I going to Cintya's house for?”
“Ah, stop, Anna. Don't talk about Cintya. I promise I'll finish everything, but give me time.” Alan can't possibly say that he suspects Anna is hiding in Rafa's house.
Anna sighed, lazily arguing.
