Marriage Proposal: Ben & Bima
14 - Eating Together (2)

(Five)

I cook very seriously. Only Chloe came to me, stroking her wet body to my feet.

“Chloe! Out!” yelled Prof Ben. He shouted from the middle room.

“Chloe! Watch out trampled!” Now I'm the one who's screaming.

Come to think of it, the house I've occupied for a long time has not been crowded. It's been two years since Riko and Tasya aren't in this house anymore. I know the reason is simple. They chose not to rent this house because two years ago they were dating. Their courtship style is too rigid. Maybe they have known since Junior High. Meeting each day is boring.

“You are! Let's bask behind.” Prof Ben comes to Chloe in the kitchen and picks her up.

I was so excited this morning to cook. Is it because there is something in my mood?

Not long after I finished cooking. It didn't take me long to cook the chicken soto. I'm very good in the kitchen even though I haven't held kitchen utensils for a long time. I went to Prof Ben who was on the stairs picking out some of his stuff. I thrust a spoonful of soto sauce at him. He didn't resist at all when I put the spoon in his mouth.

“How? What is less?” my many.

“Ndon't know. You are the one who cooks.” he said. I'm so sorry I told him to taste.

“Typically the person who cooks it is already full first, Prof. So a bit lazy to taste if not someone else.”

Prof Ben has a chin. He's thinking.

“Prof? What's up?”

I don't think he thought of my strange words.

Oh gosh. That's how he's too aesthetic. Like statues. Tempting the faith once. Wait for. Why is my imagination so strange. I finally ignored him who was propped up by the chin and returned to the kitchen. I started scooping the soto sauce in the pot and tasting it myself.

Hmmm..it seems to be fitting and a bit less salt.

“It fits. Only less salt.” Prof Ben's voice was right behind me. I turned around and my lips immediately kissed her chest. My height is not as high as Prof Ben. So, my head is just sober. Oh gosh.

AAWWW

I shouted briefly. My arm was hit by a hot pot. Fortunately the pancake did not waver, so the sauce is still safe. Prof Ben lowered his head, pulled my arm, at that moment I also raised my head and .. Can I faint? My face is very close to her.

“Why not be careful anyway??”

I pushed Prof Ben. He had to take a few steps back.

“Prof! Why so close!?”

“Loh I told you the taste of the soto sauce kok.” buy.

“But it surprised me!”

Prof Ben pulled my arm into the sink and flushed it. My arm just blushed. But when I got hot from the pot, it surprised me even more Prof Ben got too close.

“Already, already. I'm okay.”

I took my hand off her and walked up to get a box of salt and mixed it a little into the soto sauce.

Even at the dinner table, I was so grateful that Prof Ben ate as usual. I just eat my food without rice. After that, I had to help her clean up the upstairs room that turned out to contain her books and her desk. It was different from the table in his room. I don't ask much. I was just in charge of cleaning up the dust and helping him put up a little wallpaper that he had prepared. Chloe slept at the door. I know because the room is dusty. I sneezed many times.

I'm so tired. Prof Ben sat by the door. Although not yet true. He also looks tired.

“We continue tomorrow.” he said.

Tomorrow then?

I shook the air in front of my face. I saw dust flying in front of me. Even though the window was wide open.

(Ben)

Yayai came out of the bathroom. I saw him when he opened the door. He was so different when he took a shower. Her wet hair was wrapped in a small towel. Very amusing. L like it. Today Yayai is very strange. He looks a little awkward to me. Never mind.

Chloe's voice sounded so loud when I daydreamed Yayai.

“Chloe! You wanna come in? Sleeping with me? Ask Prof Ben if it is okay?” ask Chloe.

Chloe is now at Bima's doorstep. He really likes Yayai. Does Chloe know that Yayai is…

“Prof!” yell Yayai.

“Iya. Chloe's clean.”

“OK!” Yayai closed the door. Chloe went in with him. While I was in the living room monitoring my work, I still heard Yayai's loud voice talking to Chloe. Sometimes yells at Chloe because Chloe might break something. After that I did not hear any more commotion in Yayai's room. Until I fell asleep on the sofa in the middle room. Waking up the house in the dark. It turns out it's night. I listened around the house, Yayai was not seen coming out of her room. I turned on all the house lights. I had a shower and when I finished the bath, I still did not find Yayai out of the room.

Chloe fell asleep next to him, while Yayai was still fast asleep. The room is so bright. I can see Yayai's smooth face. He really fell asleep really fast. Although Chloe got up and saw me coming. I had time to stick my index finger in my mouth on Chloe so as not to meow. Chloe jumped over Yayai's body and approached me. I grabbed Chloe and took her out.

“You are very restful yes slept with your first employer huh?” I asked Chloe.

Chloe just buried her head in my arm.

“Come to eat.”

I poured cat food out of the fridge. Chloe walked gracefully up to her plate and devoured it casually. I watched Chloe eat while daydreaming. My mind is a lot. Until I heard the door open. Yes, Yayai is awake. He walked straight to the kitchen, picked up a glass, and poured some mineral water. Directly gulped it with one gulp. Then he sat down at the dining table with his chin up. Look at the dining table with a blank look.

It also seemed that Yayai was unaware that I was sitting on the floor next to the refrigerator in the kitchen.

“Why you?” my broom.

Yayai stand. I saw me sitting on the floor.

“Prof!” bemused. Then sit back.

He sighed.

“Prof if suppose I...” Yayai stand. Walk towards me. Sit with me while stroking Chloe who is eating.

“Why?”

Yayai gave her pause to start talking. The hand made to stroke Chloe, she stuck it to her chest.

“Prof looks like I'm in love with Prof.”. “And it's the first time I've fallen in love.”

Ha's? I digest his words.

My heart is actually starting to beat.

“Why did you suddenly say that?” calm down.

“Neighborhood.” Yayai.

“I don't like the sudden feeling of the opposite sex. That's not love.” my light. Yayai looked serious watching me talk. He plays his lips. He was embarrassed for speaking wrongly.

“True Prof. It's love. My heart..” Yayai took my hand and stuck it to her chest. Instantly I denied it. He was so surprised. Yayai felt I had already rejected her.

“I don't like monkey love.”

“What Prof, ever felt the love of monkeys?” tanyanya seriously.

“No. My love lasted a long time. Not monkey love or just a feeling of liking.”

It does. The proof is that I lived until I was 34 years old. I forgot to look for the feeling of love that people mostly experience.

“Prof sorry. I want to prove that I really love, Prof.” said Yayai sure.

He's so innocent. What he's been doing all this time. Has he never been in love?

“Prof I have never felt this before.” he said again.

“Taste what?”

“Fall in love.”

Question answered. Just deserve.

I want to laugh seeing her worried face. He still played his lips because he was upset with his feelings. I finally decided to lean my body on her. Yayai retreated backwards. I heard Chloe meowing and leaving. I've already pierced Yayai's body. His face was flushed and scared. Contact me grab her lips, kiss her, **********. At first slowly then lusted. But there was no reaction on Yayai's lips. She's quiet. He just closed his eyes and pushed me suddenly.

“Prof!!!” She's upset.

“You said you loved me?”

“This is not how!”

Yayai stood up and was annoyed. He left me alone in the kitchen.

I'm so happy. Then Yayai likes me. All I want to be sure of is his feelings for me. I do not doubt my feelings, for they have been tested for fourteen years.
