"Why don't you wait for me to come home?" king asked as he took the mineral water from inside the refrigerator.
Niana just kept quiet while continuing to eat snacks on the dining table. He was confused what to say to King. It was like a child complaining if he told King if Kinan threatened him.
King walked over to Niana who was silent without answering her question. King sat down at the dinner table next to Niana. Put the water on the dining table. King cupped Niana's face with both hands, positioning Niana to look at him.
"Why are you silent, let's explain, you've made me very worried earlier," King said as he stared fixedly at Niana.
Niana took King's hand off his face, took a snack on the table and put it in King's mouth. King frowned, chewing the snack Niana put in her mouth.
"I just want to take a walk, see a small part of the atmosphere of Jakarta, what's wrong," said Niana looking for an excuse.
"Of course it's wrong, what if someone kidnaps you, Jakarta is not like in Singapore, this city is harder than your shadow" King said.
Niana put the snack back in her mouth, she saw King who looked so worried. There was a sense of pleasure that he felt when he saw King so worried about him.
"You don't have to scold me like that." Niana then drank King's mineral water on the table and gulped it down.
King stood up from his position, then took a chair and sat down beside Niana. He wondered why Niana still did not understand how she was so worried.
"When did you get to the apartment, taxi or bus?" ask King in curiosity.
"No, I got on a motorcycle taxi" Niana said.
"What! Ojek, you were screwed by a man with a motor all the way to the Apartment?", asked King who was starting to be unable to relax.
"Yes, what a thrill, it was my first experience riding a motorcycle, it was not bad too, next time I will ride a motorcycle again," said Niana enthusiastically.
King gaped in disbelief at what Niana said, for how girls like Niana, like to ride a motorcycle in the middle of the city with the highest pollution.
"If it's just riding the bike, I can also .. Where are you going, Senayan, Monas, Ancol, I'll take you, so you don't have to ride the motorcycle anymore" King said.
"Do you have a motor?" asked Niana doubtfully.
"Of course, just try my hand does not hurt, I must have taken you around Jakarta" King told Niana.
"Huh, even though I want to ride the bike at night, it must be more exciting" said Niana with a pouting face.
"What if we go to the location of street food across from this apartment, there must be many Indonesian snacks and also good food" said King.
"really! I want to" said Niana enthusiastically.
"I took a shower, get ready" said King, then went to his room.
Niana looked at King's departure with a smile clearly engraved on her face. For some reason behind King's rant, he felt that King cared so much about him. He began to forget Kinan's words to her this afternoon. All he now felt was happiness he had never felt before.

Niana breathed a long breath, when she saw the appearance of King who wore an over-size sweater, mask and also a black hat. King was like a black steel knight. He forgot that King was a famous actor who was in the community, of course King could not just appear in public, he said, it could be King in krumuni people who want to ask for a photo or his signature.
As a pablik figure, ready not to be ready to share privacy with many people. Ready to keep the image as good as possible, in order to attract the attention of the fans. Actually, what King is looking for from his profession is not money, but popularity and just develop his hobby in the field of acting.
"I forgot if I had an actor's husband, your appearance is now completely closed which looks only your eyes," said Niana limp.
A wide smile was immediately engraved on King's face, as Niana said the word Husband. She was happy because Niana really thought of her as her husband, even though they had never been.
"Well if my wife doesn't like it, I'll change my clothes" King said.
"There is no need, I do not want to go for a walk tonight to meet the fans impromptu, let's go," said Niana then stepped ahead of King.
"Hey, wife! Wait," King exclaimed to Niana, Niana ignored King's words and continued to move on.

Street food Sudirman area
Niana and King walk through the crowds of roadside culinary hunters. The smoke from the charcoal, the smell of fragrant foods, began to penetrate the sense of smell of Niana and King.
"You go to this place often?" niana asked, looking at King.
"Emm, just a few times, Ki .. I mean Joshua really likes roadside food, I like it, the food here is delicious and the price is really unnatural, very cheap," said King who almost slipped said Kinan's name. King often accompanies Kinan to street food, because Kinan likes roadside food.
"Eh, it looks good, let's go there," said Niana and pulled King's hand to follow her.
Arriving in front of the lilok seller's stand, Niana immediately ordered one portion, because King did not want to be one portion just enough. Niana looks impatient to taste the lilok that is so tempting, not to forget, she added a lot of sambal, because Niana is a spicy lover. He was quite surprised because the food with the basic ingredients of starch is very delicious.
"Enak once," said Niana as she chewed the lizard.
"There are many other snacks, let's go" King said.
"OK, but you really don't want to eat and your hands how is it okay if you move too much like this" said Niana.
"I will buy food when we go home and my hands are better, when wearing clothes earlier, I can move it as usual, although it still feels a little pain" said King.
"Thank God then, let's go there" asked Niana.
"okay." King and Niana walked together.
King glanced at Niana who was beside him, seeing Niana's happy smile emanating on her beautiful face. For the first time King could see Niana who spoke casually to him, so cheerful, and also without feeling awkward.
Still in a running position, King grabbed Niana's right hand with his left hand, then he put Niana's hand in his sweater pocket while continuing to hold the hand tightly. When Niana turned to King, she was quite surprised by King's sudden treatment.
"Ehm, the weather tonight is very cold, yes" said King terbatabata.
Niana did not say anything, her face immediately met red, blushed embarrassed because of getting such a romantic behavior from King. Like a couple who just went through a first date, Niana and King have just begun the beginning of their true story.
