I Fall in Love Wrong
Chapter 46 Lucky to have you

After a while, Ferdi came without the porridge he planned to buy when he drove his mother home.

Chequek!

Ferdi opened the door and was shocked when he entered his house.

"The light is on? Even though it was before leaving I had turned it off," said Ferdi with a soft voice.

Then he entered his house with slow and careful steps.

But his steps stopped when he heard a noise from the kitchen.

He looked carefully at the kitchen. It turned out that the voice came from the kitchen utensils that Velicia had used while cooking.

Ferdi approached Velicia who was still cool with her cooking activities. Even Velicia did not realize that her husband was already nearby.

"Ve, are you awake?" asked Ferdi when he was near his wife.

Velicia turned her head towards her back and she saw her husband there.

"Where are you from?" 

Instead of Velicia answering Ferdi's question, she asked her husband back.

"From taking Mom home. What are you cooking Ve? Don't you have to rest?" ferdi asked back while holding both of his wife's shoulders using both hands.

Velicia smiled bitterly at the question from her husband. With his hand still stirring the porridge in the pot he said,

"Porridge cooking, I'm hungry. Although I have to rest, I have to cook because my stomach has to be filled. And no one wants to prepare porridge for me."

Ferdi's heart was like being hit by a large rock that stuck it leaving a deep mark.

Hearing his wife's words was the most piercing insinuation in his heart during their five-year marriage.

"Sorry Ve. I was going to take you guys to buy you some porridge. But unfortunately by the time I was there, they were closed. I'm sorry dear" said Ferdi with remorse as he wrapped his hands around his wife's cooking waist.

Velicia smiled bitterly again. She had no intention of letting go of her husband's hand that was holding her because it had been a long time since she had been looking forward to such a time as now. 

When they first got married, Ferdi was very romantic and considerate of her. Unfortunately, time erodes all of their attention and time together.

Ferdi who is now cute and different from the previous one. Even Velicia longed for the romance and attention Ferdi used to give her.

Without removing her husband's hand that was holding her, Velicia moved the ripe porridge into the bowl she had been preparing since.

He even ate the porridge while standing near the stove where he cooked.

"Ve, eat it sitting down, don't stand up" Ferdi said as he removed his hand from Velicia's waist.

There was a sense of sadness and disappointment in Velicia's heart when her husband let go of his embrace.

However, it was true what her husband said. He should have eaten sitting down, not standing up as he is today.

Immediately he brought his hot porridge bowl very carefully towards the dining table. 

In her heart Velicia laughed at her stupidity expecting something more from her husband.

Shouldn't you bring me this hot bowl of porridge?

Velicia said in her heart when she saw her husband walking towards the dining table while carrying the bottle of drink he had taken from the fridge.

After that Velicia ate the porridge bit by bit without making a sound. He simply looked towards his porridge and blew on it before it entered his mouth.

While Ferdi was watching his wife while smiling and drinking the drink he took from the refrigerator earlier.

"Ve, you are an independent woman and of course very beautiful despite being in pain like now. I am so lucky to have you as my wife" said Ferdi smilingly looking at his wife who was sitting in front of him while eating his own porridge.

Velicia smiled hearing the praise from her husband. Unfortunately, that did not make his heart happy. Even her barren attitude made her husband indifferent to her because he felt his wife could do anything on her own without her help.

"What time did you come home?" velicia asked to switch their conversation.

"Once we have eaten, we go home" Ferdi replied, smiling at his wife.

"Then did Mas Ferdi stop by Mom's house first?" ask Velicia to investigate.

"No. Mother told me to hurry home because it was night and you were alone at home" Ferdi replied without thinking.

Velicia smiled faintly hearing the answer from her husband. While feeding the porridge into his mouth, he said in his heart,

Where have you been, then? Shouldn't you have reached home earlier? Did you take long to find me some porridge? 

Velicia was about to ask her husband that. It was just that she was reluctant for fear of being disappointed to hear the answer coming out of her husband's mouth.

After feeling that it was enough to fill her stomach, Velicia moved from her seat and threw away the remaining porridge in her bowl. 

He washed all the kitchen utensils that he had used and the food equipment he used earlier.

Even in my weak condition like this you let me do this myself. At least I just hope you ask me if I'm okay, ask about my situation, and help me take care of myself. Is that heavy for you, huh?

Velicia said in her heart while washing her eating utensils. With that bitter smile she felt back the heartache she had been feeling all along.

After everything was done, Velicia returned to her room without taking Ferdi in to follow her.

While Ferdi who was pampering Lili looked at the wonder of his wife who seemed to ignore him despite passing through.

Soon Ferdi left Lili alone by returning her to her bed. He then went into his room to follow his wife.

Ferdi hugged Velicia's body from behind as velicia slept behind him.

Not that Velicia was sleeping on her back, just that she was sleeping there was no husband there yet, so she was facing a direction that was comfortable for her.

She felt her husband's hand embrace her. And she did not respond by facing back to her husband. He was silent as if he had really fallen asleep.

In the morning Velicia felt her body had improved a little. And as usual, he doesn't want to laze around at home.

She was getting ready for work, after which she woke up her husband.

"Mas is awake, it's noon" Velicia said, shaking her husband's arm.

Ferdi opened his eyes and he went from his sleep to the bathroom in his room.

After a long while she came out of the bathroom and put on a full outfit with her tie already prepared by Velicia.

Ferdi's eyes skimmed through the room looking for his wife. Unfortunately there was no Velicia in the room.

"Where is he?" ferdi said anxiously.
