SNACKING

Septian stopped his car in a large mall in Jakarta. Earlier, before sliding into the mall, he invited Nara to stop by the mosque to perform magrib prayers.

The atmosphere of the mall is not so crowded because it is not a weekend. They immediately took the elevator to the 5th floor, where there is a cinema.

The movie Nara wants to watch is at 8. But not yet at 7.

"Eat first yuk." Take Septian.

"I'm not hungry."

"The baby's Cassian Ra. It's dinnertime."

"Oh yeah, I'll fuck it up."

"Eat." Press Septian. "We go to the food court." Septian took Nara's arm to the foot court on the floor.

"What do you want to eat?" Septian asked as he watched the various food stalls that seemed not so crowded.

Nara looked around, actually she was not so appetite, but her son obviously needed to eat.

"Steak meat, black paper sauce."

"Pedes Ra, bbq yes?"

"I love the black paper Bang."

"Yes, but you're pregnant. Bbq, well done, can't be medium."

"OK." Nara had no other choice. While he sat waiting, Septian went to the Steakhouse to order.

Not long after, Septian returned to Nara's place. He saw Nara focusing in another direction.

"What's geliatin anyway?"

Nara pointed her chin towards the young couple who were fighting. A girl caught her boyfriend with another girl eating at a food court.

"Not to take care of anyone." Septian.

"Well, that's hard, huh?" Nara muttered while smiling bitterly.

"It depends on each person's Ra."

"Why do guys like cheating?"

"Not all men Ra, catet." Septian emphasized the word.

"Most."

Septian wanted to express his disobedience, but it did not happen because waitres came to bring his order.

"Well, what's soto?" Nara frowned staring at the bowl of soto and the glass of iced tea that the waitres brought.

"Make me. I'm not full of steak. So I signed for you Doang. I'm just soto." Septian squeezed a piece of lime onto his soto and started eating it.

"You?" The bargain was on Nara.

"No." Nara was weak. Just because of seeing a cheating partner who is caught, the mood becomes messy.

"Well, can you see your HP?"

Septian immediately stopped his meal hearing Nara's request. It seems, neting due to his trauma used to relapse again.

"Make what? Wanna check? Started not believing in you, brother?"

"It's not. It's just__"

"Just starting to get suspicious?" Cut the Septian in a firm tone, like a person who is offended.

"It's not so."

Septian took his phone in the bag and thrust it at Nara.

"So much as you." He said with a smile. Actually, he just pretended to be angry.

"Aren't you angry?"

"Yes, it's not."

Nara soon maraih Septian cell phone with face sumringah. But then throw a rough breath because the phone was locked.

"What's the password?"

"Nara I love you." Answer Septian without seeing Nara. He was too focused on eating chicken soto.

"I'm serious bang, don't be kidding Ih. What's password?"

"It's serious too."

Nara looked sure but kept entering the password. But unfortunately, it failed, because the password was wrong.

"It's kidding, it's wrong." Sulukan Nara while showing the phone screen towards Septian.

"You're wrong nulis kali. nara, ily, use all lowercase letters." Septian spelled the letter ily so as not to be wrong again., Ily.,

"Oh yeah, really." Nara said with a big smile. To be sure, he did not expect if Septian had such a strange password. But honestly, make him melt, baper.

Just as Nara was about to check the Septian's phone, the waitres came with her ordered steak. But as Nara was not interested in eating it, she was more interested in seeing the contents of the Septian phone.

"First let Ra." Septian Tenet. "The phone check can be later. Bring your brother's phone. No one's gonna delete it or anything."

Nara was forced to delay checking Septian's phone. In fact, he just had time to check wa. Not yet gallery or call log.

After the food ran out, they immediately returned to the cinema as the movie was about to start. Luckily, Septian had already bought a ticket, so they could go straight in.

They did not know each other when they got married. And only today, Septian knows if Nara likes thriller films, fantasy.

Throughout the film, Nara seems to be very focused. He didn't even touch the pop corn or the drink if Septian hadn't even bribed him.

After the film runs out, they immediately go down to the ground floor and intend to go home soon. But suddenly Nara's eyes caught something interesting.

"Yuk bang yuk bang." Nara pulls Septian into a sports shoe shop they passed by.

"That's really good." Nara took the latest sports shoes from a brand that is quite famous.

Septian could only glare at the price of shoes equivalent to his salary working a full month in a coffee shop.

"That's the latest release, brother. Could be couplean, there start size 36 to 44." Bright spg shoe store.

"It's a great fit for brother." Nara enthusiastically showed the shoes to Septian.

"My shoes are still good Ra. No need to buy a new one."

"But I swear, this is really cool. Brother try it."

Septian shook his head quickly. The shoes were too expensive for his pockets.

"Udah wants to close Ra's Mall. Go home yuk."

"Cobain first. This is for example mumpung size 43, it seems fitting for brother."

Septian took the shoe from Nara's hand and returned it to its original place.

"Cock behind it anyway?" Nara Protests.

Septian did not reply, he pulled Nara's wrist and took the woman out.

Nara put on a sullen face, making Septian inevitably have to invite her to speak from heart to heart.

Arriving in the car, Septian immediately held Nara's hand and pulled the woman's shoulder to face her.

"Ra, you have to understand my life. What is my salary, and what is my ability. I know your intentions are good, want me to look good, look cool with those nice shoes. But that's not my level. Those shoes cost me a month's salary. There's no way I'm spending that kind of money on shoes."

"I bought it." Nara.

Septian rubbed his face with both palms then exhaled a rough breath.

"Do you not know that I have not been able to Ra. Just payday later I intend to love you. I deserve those expensive shoes from you. No offense, instead of me resisting, just feeling, less precise." Septian could only pray that Nara could accept his explanation.

"Sorry." Nara felt guilty. Honestly, he didn't think that far. He just wanted to give Septian a gift, no other intention.

Septian pulled Nara's nape and held the woman in her chest.

"You're not wrong. I'm wrong here." Septian kissed Nara's forehead and top of the head many times. Making Nara shed tears as she felt more guilty.

Septian let go of his embrace and wiped away Nara's tears. "Yes, the last lupain. He said he wanted to check my brother's cell phone. Buruan gih checked." Septian was trying to shift the topic.

"Good God, I forgot." Nara patted her own eel. He took Septian's phone in his bag and checked whatever he thought was necessary.

Septian just smiled a smile at Nara's behavior. He doesn't mind if Nara checks his phone. There's no secret there, there's nothing to worry about.

"Miss what?" Septian Temptation.

Nara turned towards Septian while shaking her head.

Nara then picks up her phone and resets her password.

"Bang, I also changed my password. Septianily, I have a brother. Now we equally know each other's cell phone passwords. Free to check anything and anytime. You can also check my cell phone."

"Sure, brother will definitely routinely check. See who the students who chat or ngedm budos beautiful most wanted this." Septian answered while looking at Nara with a smile.
