"I'm home."
"Have you come home?" asked Keylin with a face that she looked slightly at her husband.
"Yes" said Akbar briefly and put his work shoes on the shoe rack.
Akbar noticed his chatty wife who was busy arranging food on the dining table. He put his suit and office bag on the sofa in his living room while loosening his tie.
Akbar brought himself closer to where his wife was and rolled both of his sleeves up to his elbows.
She stared at all the dishes on the table with her gaze.
"Why are you cooking this much?" tanya Akbar while plucking his wife's shrimp bakwan.
"Mas!" peek Keylin and stared intently at her handsome husband.
"Not washed your hands yet! Can't touch food. A lot of the mums know! A stomachache!" hiss Keylin glared at her husband.
"I'm hungry" Akbar said with his flat face and went to the kitchen, to the sink to wash his hands.
Keylin chuckled amusedly when he saw the behavior of her husband and she continued her activities that had been delayed.
"Why are you cooking this much? Wouldn't it take too much time if you cooked alone?" tanya Akbar who had placed himself on the dining chair after he washed his hands.
"It doesn't feel right, because I'm happy to make it" said Keylin, who finished putting all his food on the dining table.
"Want to eat what side dish? Here there are sweet sour shrimp, fried fish, kale, tempeh, know, bakwan, whether chicken soy sauce. Who do you want?" asked Keylin after exposing all the food menu on the dining table.
Akbar looked at his wife's face with his her gaze. Honestly, he did not understand his wife.
I don't know what is possessing his wife, so that the beautiful woman can cook this much food.
"I'm ma-"
Ting nong's
Tok tok tok tok
Akbar's words were cut off when he heard the bell and the knock on the door.
He frowned in surprise while checking the clock in his left hand that had shown at eight o'clock in the night.
"Who's coming at this hour? Is that Mother?" inner wondering.
"Mas, I think there's a guest. I open the door first" said Keylin and ready to step foot to the door of his house.
"Wait a minute" hold Akbar while gently pulling Keylin's hand.
"Let me" he said, and went to his door.
Cclek
Akbar opened the door slowly and looked at the person standing at the door of his house with a flat gaze after he opened the door of his house wide.
"How is my handsome brother? Hehehe" cengenges Leri and looks at Akbar with his silly gaze.
Akbar clucked unhappy with his brother's ridiculous behavior
"Would you like to come here?" ask Akbar to the point while raising one eyebrow.
"Ck you this! Really don't know manners! Supposedly if there is a guest tell the guest to come in first! It was not that he suddenly asked such a very disrespectful thing. Especially with that ugly look of yours!" grunting Leri while turning both his eyes lazily.
"Come in" asked Akbar and rewinded his body to signal for his brother to enter his house.
"Wait a minute, I'm here with my friend. Is it okay if he comes in?"
"Friends?" akbar asked with a flat look.
"Yes, I accidentally met him. It turns out that he is also a new resident of this complex. So I just bring him here, all nostalgic to him" said Leri with her relaxed face and cast a very annoying look according to Akbar.
"Oi'm a bad brother!" crab Leri with her sour face.
"Hi sorry to wait so long. Are you done?" asked the mature brown man who immediately made Leri shift her assets towards the source of the sound.
"Well, since when did you come? Just surprise me!" hiss Leri and looked at her friend with a surprised look.
"You are excessive" he said, laughing which made Leri immediately smile when he saw the laughter of his friend.
"Is it done? Can we go now?Aren't we going to the golf course?" the man asked, looking at the clock in his left hand.
"Forget it, we can try it next time. Now I want to stop by my sister's house first. Is it okay if you join us? Because I think we'll make it to night, if we leave now" said Leri, who made her friend nod her head, a sign that she understood what Leri meant.
"Yes I think you're right. It's okay, I don't mind joining you guys" said the mature brown man while throwing a thin smile.
"Then come in. My sister is already inside" said Leri and stepped into Akbar's house followed by her friend from behind.
"Hello, excuse me" said Leri once again when she saw a couple sitting side by side in front of the dining table with a warm conversation between the two. Or rather, it was only the long-haired woman who was talking warmly with her husband.
"Hi, Bang Leri" said Keylin with a friendly smile as he set up his body to welcome the person who had said the greeting.
"Hi key, good night. Sorry to interrupt your time. Mother told me to bring this for you, she said she would love you to taste her creations" said Leri as she lifted the plastic bag containing the sponge cake to the level of her face.
"Ah no need to bother. I should have delivered food to Mother, but why did Mother deliver food to me? Makes me feel bad" Keylin kekeh while rubbing his neck when the bad taste comes to his heart.
"Ahahaha you don't know Mommy. He wanted to make this for you. You know for yourself that Mother doesn't want you to deliver any food for her,"
"For him, he just wanted that you and Akbar taste his cooking because you and Akbar are the only married couple in our family. Maybe in outline, Mother feels that she has a daughter that she loves very much. That's about why he wanted to pay attention to you so much" said Leri with a sweet smile and looked at Keylin with a gentle look.
Keylin's face was red upon hearing this. Ahh knowing the fact how unfortunately her in-laws were to her, made Keylin feel both happy and moved when she heard it.
Never once did it appear in his mind that such a beautiful thing would come in his life.
Having a good husband, brother-in-law and good in-law, makes Keylin feel grateful to be given so much happiness by the almighty.
She smiled sweetly as her eyes unintentionally stared at her husband's dark bead.
"Thank you for being so kind to me. Give my message to Mother that I really like her cake" said Keylin and looked at Leri with a friendly look.
"Yes, I will say, relax" said Leri and gave the bag to Keylin and received directly by the woman.
"Oh my goodness, I forgot Andre was here. Shh sorry Bro I forgot the same as you" kekeh Leri while turning her gaze to Andre who was still faithfully standing behind her strapping body and patting Andre on the shoulder with her trademark style.
Keylin was surprised by Andre's sudden arrival. Honestly, he had been completely unaware of the man's existence.
Ahh maybe because Andre's height which is only limited to Leri's ears makes the mature brown-skinned man invisible to him, because the man's body is like being sheltered behind Leri's sturdy back.
"Hn just relax, I'm used to it" Andre said and looked at Leri with his lazy gaze.
"Sister Andre?" keylin said unconsciously when he realized that the man's face was like a stranger to him.
Andre, who heard his name mentioned, immediately turned his gaze toward the source of the voice that said his name.
His eyes immediately rounded when he knew who the person who had said his name was.
"Keylin? Are you really Keylin?" andre asked in disbelief as he met the sweet face of the woman who was in front of him at this time.
"You know each other?" akbar asked with a sharp look this time opening his voice after a long time of silence.
Keylin grimaced in horror when he saw the look on Akbar's face that was very fierce at this time.
The look of dislike that Akbar made to her, made Keylin realize that at this time her husband was upset with her.
"I...."
