"But why Daniel? She ...."
The Alpha sentence came to a halt as Emery turned his body and turned his back.
"Oh my God, my cherry. What should I do for you?" tanya Alpha whistles when she finds out that Emery is crying, making her have to rack her brain, confused.
"Darling ...."
"I really want that spaghetti" Emery cut in a hoarse voice.
"Oh my God, what's wrong with you, son? Why would you suddenly want spaghetti from that guy, can't you just want a sandwich? Because that's all Daddy can do" Alpha said slowly, kneeling by the bed, right on his wife's back. He felt guilty for making his wife cry. "Do you really want spaghetti from ... Daniel?" he who could not see his wife crying.
"Hmm, uh,"
"Should I call him here?" ask Alpha who seems to forget if the distance between Verona and New Orleans is very far, even different countries.
"All right, Daniel's not here."
"Then what should I do?"
"Come on," Emery replied, adding that Alpha was getting frustrated.
"Well, can you wait a minute? I won't be long" Alpha replied again, leaving the room after getting a nod from his wife.
Step inside the pantry, open the refrigerator and take out all the ingredients, vegetables, onions, meat, and instant sauces for Spaghetti before being seen contacting someone.
📞 "Hello?"
Alpha leaning on the edge of the counter when hearing someone's voice at the end of the connection.
📞 "It's me, Alpha."
📞"Alpha?"
It is clearly heard if the recipient of the call is surprised, awkward, and at the same time surprised. This was the first time they had spoken to each other after what had happened between them yesterday.
📞 "Sorry to interrupt your time, are you busy?"
📞 "No, I'm being free,"
📞 "Daniel. I ... need your help."
📞 "What's wrong?"
📞 "I ... want to ask ...."
Alpha is stuck in the throat. It is seen taking a deep breath before releasing it slowly. They used to point guns at each other and hit each other. And now does it make sense if he suddenly asks for help to be prescribed food?
📞 "What's up, Alpha sir?"
📞 "Asking for spaghetti recipe."
Even he could hear clearly if Daniel suddenly choked, whether the man was eating or drinking, clearly, Daniel still sounded coughing.
📞 "What?"
📞 "You're not deaf, Daniel. I'm sure you can hear me clearly."
📞 "Be nice Mr. Alpha Khandra, you're asking me for help right now, I don't know what's wrong with the chef in the Berta family, why you suddenly asked me for a spaghetti recipe."
📞 "Emery wants it ...."
📞 "Eme?"
📞 "Wait. Eme?! You have a special nickname for my wife?"
📞 "I can imagine how your facial expression is now, your eyebrows must have shriveled in annoyance. But, should we discuss this now?"
📞 "He's cravings, and doesn't want to eat anything but your homemade spaghetti. So can you do me a favor without asking Mr. Daniel so much?"
📞 "Sure,"
📞 "Thank you, can we start now?"
Alpha is already holding the knife and ready to cook.
📞 "Wait, are you going to do it?"
📞 "What's wrong?"
📞 "You're going to screw up Mr. Alpha."
📞 "Then who do you think will do it again?"
📞 "Alright, it's up to you, I hope you can tell the difference between pepper and salt."
📞 "Tone? What'sthat?"
📞 "Forget. You better hang up your phone calls and make a video call."
📞 "Alright,"
Alpha disconnects the phone call and starts making video calls. He did not believe he would do this to Daniel, the bodyguard of the man who killed his father. Their relationship was chaotic, even very chaotic, to almost kill each other.
Alpha looked very obedient as Daniel began to instruct what ingredients Alpha should use, even Alpha must be able to resist patience when Daniel tells him to try all kinds of spices first because he does not believe that Alpha can also cook and can distinguish all kinds of spices.
📱 "My tongue's out right now, do I have to try all the kitchen spices here?"
Alpha again complains with teary eyes when trying pepper.
📱 "Sorry Mr. Alpha, I wouldn't have told you to try everything if only you knew and could tell them apart."
📱 "Damn. I told you I could tell them all apart. I've cooked once, but I don't use this much kitchen spice, I've only worked in a coffee shop, and other than coffee, just sandwiches and some simple food that I know and you, I know, where do you know all this kitchen spice, I think you can only tell the difference between Raging ball, U21 submachine gun, and M4 carbine."
📱 "I've lived alone, maybe that's the reason, I can do anything to survive."
📱 "Well, I think Emery is lucky to have a personal bodyguard like you, should I thank you for looking after him all this time?" ask Alpha who looks quite surprised when the splash of oil hit his arm when he started sauteing the seasoning he has pureed.
📱 "It wasn't an Alpha master ammunition explosion."
📱 "Shut up."
Alpha started stirring the onion and meat carefully. Without realizing that Leon had been sitting in the middle seat watching him with frowning eyebrows.
Emery accidentally contacts Leon to come over, knowing that Alpha will start cooking, and she believes that her husband will be in trouble in the pantry.
Up to 15 minutes later, Alpha had already finished his cooking, along with a delicious aroma that smelled throughout the room. Even Leon himself was convinced, if Alpha cooking wouldn't be bad.
📱 "Thank you Daniel, may Emery like this."
📱 "Eme must love it, I admit you did quite well,"
📱 "Alright,"
📱 "Greetings to Eme,"
📱 "Hmm," Alpha nods about to disconnect the video call. However, it is broken. "Wait."
📱 "What's wrong?"
📱 "There's one thing I want to ask you, Daniel."
📱 "Please."
📱 "What's the deal between you and Jackob Sean?"
📱 "Just a small deal, you don't have to think about that."
📱 "Alright, Thank you, Daniel."
Alpha ended the video call. Stare in amazement at the plate of spaghetti he painstakingly made.
"Finally it's done too, I hope Emery likes it, too" said Alpha observing a special dish he had made with a smile on his face, picking up a plate already filled with spaghetti before stepping away.
"Looks like you're very busy" Loen said, which surprised Alpha enough.
"You surprised me, damn it. Since when are you there?"
"You are too serious, I have even been here watching you closely," Leon replied still leaning his body on the back of the chair.
"Are you not able to make a sound? You even look like a ghost in there."
Alpha continues with a plate of spaghetti still in hand to put it on the middle room table.
"What is Daniel?" leon followed his steps out of the pantry.
"Hmm, uh,"
"Why should he?" ask Leon who still doesn't understand. Why did Alpha suddenly contact the man for just a plate of spaghetti.
"Emery really wanted Daniel's spaghetti," Alpha retorted up the stairs. While Leon was still gawking at Alpha's answer, did not continue his steps and chose to sit on the living room sofa looking at a plate of Alpha-made spaghetti there.
