My Boss, Is My Husband
The Role of Healing Wounds

That pregnancy changed everything, especially the relationship between Hanna and Rey. They are required to really be husband and wife and must be good parents later for their children.

However, Hanna asked to keep their relationship secret at the office. The reason is, he does not want to be treated differently in the office if people know the truth. Rey, agreed. Regardless, that origin could make Hanna comfortable and unencumbered.

After all, Hanna did not know what to face Raffael and Lora like if they knew all of a sudden like that. Hanna, will find a good time to be honest with both of them.

"Hows it? You agree to stay here?" Aunty Lalita's question ensured Hanna's final decision. He went back to Hanna and Rey who were still in the guest room.

Hanna nodded slowly.

The smile on Aunt Lalita's lips instantly broke.

"The right decision." Imbuh Aunt Lalita full of meaning. "Would you rest now, you must be tired." Aunt Lalita again left the two in the guest room. He was so excited, and very accepting of Hanna's existence in the midst of their family.

A smile, unceasingly drawn on her beautiful face. Aunt Lalita, so happy when she found out Hanna was pregnant. Both Rey's parents had long hoped that would happen. It seemed like the sky was listening to their prayers, and finally Hanna was completely pregnant.

All of that is nothing but to tie up the relationship between Rey and Hanna. And keep Myesa out of Rey's life.

"Yourfts..." Rey breathed a sigh of relief, then got up from her seat. It seems a little groggy. "Come, I'll show you the room." Continue Rey.

"Gummer.." Hanna nodded, then walked in Rey's footsteps.

Rey, take over and bring Hanna's suitcase to the room.

"You can use this closet." Said Rey, emptying her closet next to her. Then, stacking his clothes around next to him.

"Rey.." Call Hanna then.

"Yes." Yeah." Rey replied, then turned to look at Hanna who was behind her.

"What about Myesa?" Ask Hanna at last.

"Emm..." Thinking for a moment.  "I'll take care of it." Rey replied, looking a little hesitant.

"You don't have to hurry, I understand. Explain slowly to him so he doesn't misunderstand." Hanna. "And-" Hanna said, looking down.

"And what?" Rey ascertains.

"I'm sorry." Hanna continued, still looking down deep. It seems like he just realized that everything happened because of him. If only that night he had not drunk the drink that Anthony had given him, if only he had the courage to refuse the drink. Maybe none of this will happen, and will not drag Rey deeper, in the relationship that is lived because of all the compulsion. That's what Hanna says.

"I'm sorry too." Imbuh Rey's. "At least everything has happened. There's nothing we can do but just live it, right?" Continue Rey.

"Gummer..." Hanna nodded slowly.

"Here you go, we'd better get some rest now. You can sleep in bed. I'll sleep on the couch." Imbuh Rey seemed to recognize the awkwardness of Hanna if if they slept in the same bed. Rey, grab a pillow. And go to the sofa not far from the bed.

"It's okay, let me just sleep on the couch." Hanna immediately tried to take over the pillow that was in Rey's hands. And make Rey step stopped.

A little corner of Rey's lips lifted. "Can you not be stubborn this time. Just follow what I say." Rey said as she rattled Hanna's head. Making Hanna blush a little with cheeks that had been flushed like fried shrimp, Hanna released her grip from the pillow in the end.

Hanna looked at Rey's back that passed from before her. "It turns out you have a sweet side too." Bantin Hanna's.

A long night. Both of them could not sleep, even though they tried to close their eyes. Of course because their minds were drifting somewhere.

In the middle of silence that night, suddenly Hanna's stomach was rumbling.

"You hungry?" Rey asked, looking at Hanna.

Hanna slowly moved the pillow away from her face. Then look towards Rey.  "Emm.." While nodding with his awkward smile.

"In the meantime, I'll prepare some food for you." Rey got up from the couch.

"I'll help." Hanna gets out of bed and follows Rey. He feels bad if he lets Rey prepare food for him alone. What else is it midnight.

*

"What do you want to eat?" Rey asked Hanna who was standing next to her. Both of them were standing staring at the stuffing in the two-door refrigerator that was wide open.

"Emm..." Hanna looked puzzled, choosing what food she wanted to eat. "Anything." He said after thinking for a long time.

Rey chuckled, after waiting for quite a while. Hanna's answer was precisely that.

"All right." Rey nodded, then took out some vegetables and other ingredients from the refrigerator.

Afterwards, he stood up and looked confused as to what he should do.

Hanna scrunched her forehead. Look at Rey who just stood there with a knife in her hand.

"Can you do it?" Ask Hanna at last.

"Of course." Rey grins. Then try cutting tomatoes.

"Agh.." As a result, it was precisely his sliced finger. Hanna quickly approached, and stopped the blood coming out of Rey's finger by sucking on it.

Hanna spontaneously did the habit she did every time her finger was sliced.

Rey looked at Hanna with a bit of surprise because of what she was doing.

"Sorry.." Imbuh Hanna while releasing Rey's finger again, after realizing what she was doing. "According to researchers from the Netherlands, as they report in the journal The FASEB, there is a compound in human saliva that is able to accelerate wound healing. Researchers found that histatin (a protein in saliva) is believed to be able to kill bacteria and cause wound healing." Hanna explained. He can't cover his awkwardness. He needs something to defend himself.

"Hanna! What are you doing this." He strangled himself while trying to hide his shy face in another direction.

Rey just chuckled. "But because saliva is a complex fluid with many components, it must be known which components play a role in healing wounds." Continue Rey.

Hanna turned her face towards Rey. "You also read about the research?" Ask Hanna later.

"Yep.. And, thanks for the first handling." Rey said with a smile.

Hanna nodded, smiling too. "Let me continue." Hanna steps up, then takes over Rey's place behind the kitchen set.

"But-"

"You'd better wrap the wound first." Sela Hanna, wearing an apron.

"Em all right." Rey slowly steps up, leaving Hanna and heading towards the p3k box. Then bandage his wound.

Eventually, Rey just became a spectator. Looking at Hanna who is so smart using kitchen utensils. And for some reason, Rey could not take her eyes off the face of the girl who was looking so serious.
