My Introvert Husband 3
If time could be turned

Ken invites Alana back to the room, he tells her to sit on the bed, while Ken himself meets Mr. Kin to ask for Baby oil and warm water. He went back to Alana and immediately cleaned the face of his wife who was hit by the scribble using a wet cloth.

"Eat him, don't play with markers, just like a kid!" ken was busy cleaning Alana's face.

"I didn't play, I was asleep, and when I woke up my face was full of scribbles like this" Alana said in a clear tone.

"Can't it be lost?" ask Alana.

"I'm still trying" said Ken.

For nearly half an hour Ken cleaned Alana's face with great difficulty, though the streak faded, but the marks were still visible there.

"It's been.." said Ken.

Alana got out of bed and immediately reflected. It is still clear that the graffiti of the marker imprint on Alana's face, even though it only looks faint.

"Still in check, I don't want to." Alana grumbled. Ken approached Alana to take her to the bathtub to help wash her face. At least, it's better than it was.

"It's gone a little bit" Ken picked up a towel and dried his wife's face.

"Wait here, I'll find Kimmy and Jesslyn."

"Darling, don't scold her!" Alana. Ken just shut up and walked out of there.

***

Kimmy and Jesslyn had been hiding in the closet in the room, the cupboard had a size large enough, moreover there was no clothes at all in it, makes them both more free to hide in there. They opened the closet doors a little and gave a blemish, making it easier for them to scoop up oxygen from the outside.

"Don't move much, I can't breathe!" jesslyn protest.

"Until when are we here? I'm not strong, very stuffy" Kimmy said.

"It's your fault, if you don't make a suggestion to cross Alana's face, we won't hide like this!" jesslyn.

"Why is it my fault? obviously it's your fault, whose fault you didn't see that the marker you took was a permanent marker!" Kimmy denied.

"You dare blame me?" Jesslyn glared at Kimmy, scaring him a little.

"Yes, it's both of us's fault." grumbled Kimmy.

"So, it's your fault it's not my fault!" jesslyn. Kimmy was about to get out of the closet, but Jesslyn held him back.

"Where are you going?" ask Jesslyn.

"I want to go see Alana, I'll apologize" Jesslyn replied.

"Later, if Alana's anger had dampened, if you apologize now, she would have been very angry! you didn't see how he was screaming for us?" jesslyn.

"Let it go, it's our fault" Kimmy said.

"It's your fault not our slowness!" jesslyn.

"But you also crossed Alana's face!" kimmy Saut.

"Jesslynn's... Kimmy..." The sound of Ken shouting their names, made the two of them round their eyes in fear.

"Kimmy there's a big brother. Shut up." Jesslyn silenced Kimmy's mouth with her palm. As powerful as they were, the two of them did not move in the slightest,

When it was felt that Ken's scream was no longer heard, Jesslyn took off her arms from Kimmy's mult. They were both looking for oxygen.

"It seems like Big Brother is gone" Jesslyn and Kimmy breathed so freely.

"Who doesn't exist?" ken's voice suddenly shrank. The closet door was instantly wide open, revealing Ken's fierce face clearly in front of them.

"Sister..."

"Hallo, Brother Ken." Kimmy waved and smiled strangely, they were really surprised when they saw Ken who was still there, staring at them with both eyebrows sharpened, making Kimmy and Jesslyn afraid to put down her views.

"out! Why are you so naughty..." Ken resentfully sends Jesslyn and Kimmy out of the closet and leads her to meet Alana in her room.

In the room, Alana was still trying to clean up the marks of the markers on her face by using wet tissue. Alana immediately turned her head, when she saw her husband coming back to see her with Jesslyn and Kimmy. With a snapping tone, Ken immediately told his sister and Kimmy to immediately apologize to his wife.

Alana pursed her lips, putting on a face full of annoyance to Jesslyn as well as Kimmy.

"Alana, forgive us, believe me it's all Kimmy's fault." Jesslyn said.

"Why do you blame me?" refute Kimmy.

"This is your fault! You're the one with the idea to cross Alana's face!" jesslyn.

"But you're the one who cut out Alana's face the most!" kimmy Saut.

"If you don't propose a silly idea, I might cross Alana's face!"

"Shut up! Why are you fighting?" alana Tukas.

"I'm sorry, Alana. We've been doodling your face, we really don't know if the marker turns out to be the marker, the marker" Kimmy said with a guilty feeling.

"Yes, Alana, please forgive us!" timpal Jesslyn's.

"Because the marker streak is gone, so I have forgiven you," said Alana.

"You forgive us Alana?" ask Jesslyn. Alana nodded her head without making a sound.

"Thank you very much, we promise we won't do it again." Kimmy and Jesslyn embrace Alana.

But still, even though Alana forgave them, but did not avoid that they both had to endure the heat in her ears due to scolding and also Ken's anger. Jesslyn and Kimmy just looked down and agreed on everything that came out of her brother's mouth.

***

At night, the,

Everyone was gathering at the dining table to enjoy the joint dinner that Alea had prepared with Alana's help. but not with Alana who just kept silent and repeatedly poured and gulped water until full.

The woman was actually very hungry, even her stomach was repeatedly rung, yet, she was as strong as she could endure it. Looking at the mirror made her afraid to be fat.

"Honey, I went to the room ya.." said Alana to Ken who at that time just ate some food bribes from his plate.

"Why don't you eat?" reprimand Ken.

"I've eaten, so full." replied Alana. He hurriedly left the dining table.

"Daritadi was in the room, how did he say he had eaten?" Ken muttered. He took an empty plate and filled it with some food.

"Who are you getting food for?" ask Jesslyn.

"For Alana, you know she hasn't eaten yet." she replied.

"I'm sorry to go to the room" said Ken.

"Ken, your food hasn't been spent. Spend first!" david's orders.

"My wife hasn't eaten yet, how can I run out of my food in peace!" Ken passed away leaving the dining table with the food to the room.

While Valerie, he noticed Ken's already unattainable gestures from the sight of his eyes. He closed his eyes with a very angry feeling.

"Once his attention is, Ken to Alana. There was nothing special about the woman, let alone being spoiled like a child," Valerie muttered.

"You why Valerie?" jesslyn's voice suddenly rebuked her.

"It's okay." Valerie smiled. They all went back to dinner without Alana and Ken.

****

Ken went to the room, approaching Alana who was sitting on the edge of the bed. "Darling..." Ken was holding his body next to him.

"Why are you here? isn't your dinner over yet?" alana asked, both eyes glancing towards the food brought by Ken.

"Let's eat! I know you haven't eaten."

"I've eaten, Ken. I'm full, just look at my big belly because most eat."  Alana showed Ken her stomach. Ken smiled as he shook his head.

"I don't like you skipping malan, let's eat it I don't want you to get sick, let me give you a bribe!" Ken thrust a spoonful of food closer to Alana's mouth.

"I'm full of Ken..." Alana immediately closed her mouth. But both of his eyes said another, he glanced at the food while swallowing his saliva.

"Don't you see this meat is so delicious?" ken Goda. Alana glanced at it while shaking it in her heart.

"I'm full, I'm full..." Alana took her eyes off the temptation of the food.

"You afraid of fat?" ask Ken.

"No..." Alana shook her head.

"If I eat dinner, I'll be fat, I don't look pretty and then you'll leave me, '" Alana pursed her lips.

"What are you talking about? I will never leave you. You haven't eaten, let's eat, if you're sick I'm confused" said Ken.

"It's not gonna make you fat." persuaded Ken.

"really? Ken nodded. Alana smiled and immediately devoured the food feed. Alana and Ken share the food until it runs out, in fact, Alana had asked Ken to increase his food because he really felt like a hungry person who did not want to stop chewing food. To make Ken so surprised to make it, because not as usual Alana so.

***

After dinner, everyone leaves the kitchen, except Jesslyn and Valerie who clean up the dirty dishes in the kitchen. While Kimmy, he bids go to the bathroom for Pup.

"You're coming home tonight Valerie?" jesslyn asked as she stacked some dirty dishes in her hand.

"Yes, my driver has traveled here, maybe another hour will come" replied Valerie.

"Oh..."

"Jesslyn can I ask you a question?"

"Of course, what do you want to ask?" Jesslyn welcomed Valerie's question with pleasure.

"Ehm, do you know when Ken knew Alana?" valerie's question left Jesslyn speechless with questions.

"I mean, back when I was good friends with Ken, I never knew Alana at all, so I asked" he added.

"Oh... I got to know Alana for a few months, then decided to get married" Jesslyn replied.

"So fast?" Valerie frowned in wonder.

"Why is that?" ask Jesslyn.

"No! I'm just surprised, as far as I know Ken is not the type of person who is easy to accept others in his life let alone contrary to the affairs of feelings, I know Ken, very well, is there any reason why Ken would marry Alana?" Valerie had indeed deliberately lured that question to Jesslyn.

"There is no reason! Brother just knew Alana, they were not dating, but Brother loved her so much as well as Alana" said Jesslyn.

"Usually, a hastily tied relationship will definitely not last as long as a feeling." Jesslyn suddenly knitted her eyebrows together as if she did not like Valerie's words, which seemed to curse her sister's marriage.

"But Brother really loves Alana!" ketus Jesslyn's.

"It can be temporary, love can be lost at any time, Jesslyn. Moreover, the marriage of Ken and Alana is very young." saut Valerie.

"It's true what you said, if my brother's love for Alana was just a prank! But the truth is, Big Brother really loves Alana very much. You didn't see how yesterday Brother was so worried about Alana when she left Villa? even earlier, didn't you see it? unknowingly, my brother's exaggerated attitude showed that he loved Alana very much!"

"I know it's Jesslyn! I-i-"

"You don't know!" Jesslyn recited Valerie's words in a very nondescript tone.

"I know and know my brother from childhood. If Alana wasn't the one who meant anything to my sister, there's no way my sister would treat Alana as well as me and Mama!" jesslyn.

"Even if my sister hurts Alana, I'm the first one to scold her! And I won't let anyone dare ruin my brother's household!" jesslyn's story is full of emphasis as if she is really serious about her words.

"Sorry, Valerie. Looks like you asked too much about my brother's wedding, I'm sorry to go back to the room." Jesslyn put the dirty plate into the laundry and passed away leaving the kitchen with an irritated look on her face. Moreover, the hormones will menstruation make Jesslyn so emotionally respond to Valerie's question that is felt to be too meddling.

Valerie, still in the kitchen, was pecking at the same spot and pensively digesting what Jesslyn was saying.

"Ken really loves Alana... Why am I so stupid still hoping for a married man?" Valerie closed her eyes, not even a little clear liquid was swept there.

"But I really love Ken!" valerie's chest was so tight considering the pain. The fact of getting married to Billy, is more painful than the heartache itself.

***

An hour later, Billy's private driver has just arrived at the villa, and Valerie and she are getting ready to return. However, Valerie first asks Billy for permission to see Ken, Billy allows her.

Valerie, knocking on Ken's bedroom door, Ken, who was accompanying Alana to bed, immediately got out of bed and opened the door. He lost interest, as he saw Valerie standing before him at this moment.

"What's wrong?" ask Ken in his lazy voice.

"I want to say goodbye" Valerie said. Ken just nodded without making a sound. But Valerie was still there.

"Is there anything you want to talk about again?" ask Ken.

"Can we talk for a second on Ken's balcony?" pinta Valerie's.

"I can't.." refused Ken.

"For a moment, I beg you." he asked again, clenching his hands together. Ken glanced into the room, he saw that Alana had fallen asleep.

"Just a moment..." Ken closed the door and walked ahead of Valerie to the balcony of the villa, where no one was there.

On the balcony,

"What's wrong? speak quickly!" ken orders without seeing Valerie.

"Ken, you know I'm getting married, like I said at Adam's party, to forget you, I'm forced to accept my grandmother's request to marry Billy." Valerie suddenly nodded because she was unable to save her grief. Ken just kept quiet and momentarily glanced at him.

"But until now I haven't been able to forget you, Ken.

I used to hold back my feelings for you. Do you remember? you used to always ask, why do I always reject the man who always approaches me? but I never answered."

"I've always rejected men just to be close to you, that's why Ken. I didn't know after that day you had feelings for me, if only time could be repeated" he said with a slight sob.

"But unfortunately it can't, and if it can, it'll never happen!

I have a life, I love my wife so much, so do you. You've chosen what will be your choice!" ken.

"But I don't want any of this, Ken!" Valerie shook her head with a face filled with tears.

"Valerie, what you're crying about won't change everything. Please forget everything, including me!" ken's orders.

"You just calm down! I promised myself that after today I will forget you and start my new life. I swear to you, I just came here to express my feelings, nothing more" Valerie replied. Ken looked at Valerie's two eyeballs with a deep look.

"At least my heart is relieved to be able to convey all this." he added with a smile.

"Can we still be friends like we used to?" valerie asked as she wiped her tears.

"We can be friends, but we can't be like we used to be. Since the situation is different, I don't want to have any girlfriends other than Alana!" ken.

"Well, I can understand that..."

"Can I hold you, Ken?" pinta Valerie's.

"Sorry, Valerie. I can't!".

"Again, for the last time" he asked slowly but forcefully.

"Don't think of myself as the woman who once felt for you, but think of me as your old friend Valerie" he added.  Ken paused for a moment, digesting the request of the woman now before him.

Then, he nodded his head without making a sound. Valerie immediately wrapped her arms and tightly hugged Ken's body as she poured her tears there. Ken just kept quiet and returned the hug. Before long, Valerie took off her embrace and quickly rubbed her wet face.

"Thank you very much, may you always be happy with Miss Alana, I'm sorry, if my presence makes you and Miss Alana upset" Valerie said.

"I'm home." Valerie rubbed the arm of Ken's hand, it was often done by Valerie to Ken if she was going to split up. Ken nodded his head, Valerie immediately left the balcony. Ken still can't keep an eye on Valerie whose body moves away from him.
