Love and Marriage Contract
Cooking Together

The clock shows at 06:00 p.m. Arga and Bianca decide to cook in the kitchen together after they talk about many things on the balcony.

"Okay, so what are we gonna cook for dinner tonight?" asked Arga when he was in the kitchen with Bianca.

"Let's see what aunt keeps in the fridge" Bianca replied as she opened the fridge.

"OK I know what we're going to cook" Arga said after a few seconds he saw the ingredients in the refrigerator.

"What are we cooking? you've even just seen it" asked Bianca.

"Give it to me, take out all the vegetables and chicken in the fridge" replied Arga.

"Good chef," Bianca replied.

Bianca then took out the ingredients according to Arga's orders.

"Wash these vegetables after that cut, I'll take care of the chicken!" arga said to Bianca.

"Good chef," Bianca replied and washed one by one the vegetables in front of her.

Bianca then cut the vegetables one by one very slowly.

"Are you going to keep it like that cutting it off?" tanya Arga noticed Bianca who cut the vegetables very slowly.

"Is something wrong? is this too big or too small?" ask Bianca.

"The size is appropriate, but you're too slow Bianca" replied Arga.

"If I cut it quickly the size will vary and it will affect its maturity level, right as it is not!" bianca Reply.

"You're right, but we'll have dinner after sunrise if you continue like that" Arga said, taking over the knife Bianca held.

"Then what should I do now?" ask Bianca.

"Just pay attention to this handsome chef hahaha." replied Arga while showing her skills in cutting vegetables.

"I can't reproach because you have abilities you can boast of!" bianca said with a nod of her head.

"Hahaha.it's just a little Bianca thing, if you do it often you'll get used to it" Arga replied.

"Good chef, I will often cook from now on" said Bianca.

"No, don't do it, it's aunt's job" Arga replied.

"But I would never be able to cook if I didn't try it" Bianca said.

"You'll still look pretty even if you can't cook Bianca, so make sure you get a rich husband so he can hire a housekeeper to cook, '" Arga said.

Bianca just smiled faintly without saying anything. Arga's words seemed to make sure that Arga is not a husband for eternity for him, because in reality the relationship between husband and wife in their marriage will only run for 2 years.

"We're going to make my favorite chicken soup" Arga said after she finished cutting vegetables.

"Why do you like chicken soup so much? auntie says you always ask for chicken soup when you're sick" asked Bianca curiously.

"I don't know either, all the food tasted bland on my tongue other than aunt's chicken soup" replied Arga.

"Have you worked here long enough?" ask Bianca.

"Auntie has been working with my parents since I was a child, Bianca, and after I grew up, she asked my aunt to come with me after I decided to stay in my own house" Arga said.

"Aaahhh deserves aunty to know you very well" said Bianca.

"Why indeed? did auntie say anything to you?" asked Arga who immediately replied to his head by Bianca.

"No" answered Bianca.

"You're lucky that there are so many good people around you like aunt and Daffa, because you're also very kind to the people around you" Bianca continued.

Arga just smiled as he put the pieces of carrots and potatoes into the water he had just boiled.

"Aahh yes Lola told me if she was going to vacation with Daffa for 2 days, did Daffa also tell you?" bianca asked Arga.

"Yes he asked for 2 days off and he begged me not to disturb him during his leave" Arga replied.

"Did you always bother him when he was on holiday?" ask Bianca.

"Many things happened outside of Bianca's expectations, no one else I trusted besides Daffa, so yes....."

"So much of your faith in Daffa?" ask Bianca.

"Of course, he has always helped me in many ways" replied Arga.

"Even in filthy terms" continued Arga in his heart.

"It looks like Daffa really likes Lola" Arga said.

"Did he say something to you?" ask Bianca.

"He used to tell me about Lola, he thought that if Lola was different from all the women he had approached and as far as I knew it would not be difficult for Daffa to get any woman he liked except for Lola who made him have to think about there are many ways to approach it" explained Arga.

"But I don't think I'm going to believe you because you're his friend, friend and partner in crime!" Bianca.

"You're right, you shouldn't easily trust the words of others, even those closest to you" Arga said.

After a long time struggling in the kitchen finally two bowls of warm chicken soup have been presented on the table.

Arga and Biancapun enjoy the cuisine that they have both made together.

"Hmmm ... this is very delicious, not inferior to aunty's chicken soup," said Bianca.

"I've been studying this dish for a long time from aunty, so I make sure it will taste similar to aunty's, '" Arga said.

After finishing their dinner, they had not moved from their seats because they were talking about many things.

There were occasional laughs that filled the house as Arga and Bianca threw their jokes at each other.

"Well, when you met those people, were you with Daffa?" ask Bianca.

"Yes I was with him, he himself asked to come along" replied Arga.

"Did he hurt like you?" ask Bianca worried.

"No, are you worried about him?" balas Arga's.

"Of course, if I knew you two were going to meet those people I would have banned, I wouldn't want anything bad to happen to you both" Bianca said.

"If you have a husband you love, don't worry about other men like that, you'll make your husband jealous!" said Arga.

"Are you jealous now?" bianca asked with a smile.

"Jealous? of course not, why am I jealous of Daffa? he is not my rival because I am much better than him" replied Arga with his arrogance.

"You and your arrogance are what makes you so different from Daffa" Bianca said.

"I'm bragging about what I have, am I wrong?" balas Arga's.

"Hmmm, it's up to you" said Bianca as she moved from her seat and brought her bowl and Arga's to the kitchen.

"Let the aunt wash Bianca" Arga told Bianca.

"We make this kitchen a mess Arga, at least I have to take responsibility" Bianca replied.

"OK well, once to ease the duties of aunty," said Arga then stood beside Bianca and shifted Bianca's position.

"What are you doing? go, is there no other job you have to do?" bianca asked as she snatched the dirty bowl from Arga's hand.

Arga just smiled by looking at Bianca, without Bianca knowing Arga's hand was touching a lot of soap foam then immediately stick it on Bianca's cheek when Bianca off guard.

"Arga.. You can make my face breakouts!" bianca said upset and then took the foam in her hand, intending to avenge Arga's actions.

But Arga held Bianca's hand holding the foam, making it difficult for Bianca to touch Arga's face with the foam in her hand.

"Arga, you're cheating!" said Bianca who kept trying to touch Arga's face.

"Hahaha..this is called Bianca tactics," Arga replied.

"Geeh!!"

Deheman's voice was loud enough to make Bianca and Arga immediately bring their gaze towards the source of the sound.

They were so shocked when they saw Mama Nadine who was standing there smiling.

Realizing that his hand was still held by Arga, Biancapun immediately pulled his hand from Arga.

"When is Mama here?" ask Arga to my mom.

"Continue, you won't bother me" Nadine said with a smile without answering Arga's question.

Nadine then walks out of the kitchen, while Bianca and Arga immediately resume washing the dirty kitchen items in front of them.

After all the laundry was clean, Bianca immediately took her steps to get out of the kitchen. But Arga immediately held Bianca's hand and removed the foam on Bianca's cheek.

"You can't possibly meet my mom in this situation!" said Arga with a smile.

"I haven't lost to Arga, I'll repay you one day" Bianca replied and walked out of the kitchen after making sure there was no foam on her face.

Arga only chuckles and follows Bianca's steps to meet the Mama who is waiting for them in the living room.

"Have you been washing dishes all this time?" nadine asked with a look at Arga and Bianca who had just sat down.

"Dishwashing?" ask David who was there at the time.

"No ma, pa, it just so happens that tonight we're just cooking together so we're the ones who wash all the dirty kitchen utensils" Arga explained.

"Cooking together? waahh is very romantic," said Nadine full of smiles.

"Papa's son is always good at pleasing women," said David who makes Bianca and Arga just smile awkwardly.

"What are mom and dad doing here? usually you always ask Arga to come there if there is anything to talk about," asked Arga to his mother and father.

"Actually you doubt whether you should say this to me or not, but I think you should say it" replied Nadine hesitantly.

"Before don't misunderstand what Mama said to you, this is just as a form of attention mom and dad to both of you," said David.

"Why are mom and dad so serious? what did your mom want to say?" ask Arga.

"Mama wants to introduce you two to Mama's friend who works as an obgyn doctor in one of the hospitals, mama...."

"Arga and Bianca don't need him ma" said Arga, cutting off his mother's words.

"Arga, listen to me first" Bianca told Arga.

"You know you two must be fine, you didn't force you either, but starting a pregnancy program from now on doesn't hurt, does it?"

"Mama and papa please don't discuss this issue again, let Arga and Bianca decide themselves," Arga said and then moved from his seat.

"Arga, sit down" said Bianca, holding Arga's hand.

"I'm tired, I want to sleep" Arga replied and pulled her hand from Bianca and walked away.

"Sorry ma, pa, it looks like Arga is tired," Bianca told mom and dad Arga.

"He really doesn't like it when we talk about this, please talk about it to Arga Bianca, mom and dad just want the best for both of you" Nadine told Bianca.

"Don't force them, let them live their marriage as they see fit" David said.

"But pa....."

"It's been, it's better we go home now" said David cut off the wife's words.

"Bianca, please calm Arga and apologize to her mom and dad" continued David.

"Yes pa" replied Bianca.

Nadine and David then got out and drove their car away. Bianca immediately took her steps towards her room.

For the first time he hesitated to enter the room, because he knew that Arga was in his room.

Bianca let out a long sigh before she knocked on the door and entered her room. Bianca finds Arga sitting on the edge of her bed staring at Bianca's open window.

Bianca then took her step towards the window and closed it.

"Are you still angry?" asked Bianca who was standing in front of Arga.

"Why is marriage always overshadowed by pregnancy and children? can't we have it without having to be forced like this?" reply Arga asked in annoyance.

"Mama and papa didn't mean to force Arga, they just....."

"Mama has talked about it many times with Bianca and many times I have told her that I don't want to rush too much" Arga said, cutting off Bianca's words.

"Mama and papa think if there's nothing wrong with our marriage, it's only natural that they expect me to get pregnant soon" Bianca said.

"I'm sorry, Bianca, I've cornered you because of this!" arga said with his head down.

"It's not your fault, this marriage is our agreement" Bianca replied.

Arga let out a long breath and then moved from his seat. Arga was silent for a moment by looking at Bianca who was standing before him.

Arga then dropped his head on Bianca's shoulder without saying anything.

"Arga, what....."

"Please leave it like this Bianca, just for a moment" Arga said in a voice so soft.

Biancapun let Arga do that. Either because it is too comfortable or because Arga is already sleepy and tired, without realizing Arga fell asleep in such a position.

"Arga, are you asleep?" bianca asked while touching Arga's hands off guard.

There was no answer, Arga was very calm, even Bianca could feel the breath of Arga so calm.

Bianca then held Arga's hands together and slowly dropped Arga on her bed.

Not to forget Bianca covered Arga's body with her blanket.
