"You're such a bitch, but you're not bothering me at all, I'd rather have my chatty Alan like this" Ken pulled Alana's body, and he pulled her, gave her many kisses and hugged her while closing her eyes as if she did not want to end the embrace.
"Don't ever talk like that again, let's go to bed." Ken lets go of the hug, he breaks down his body, pulls Alana and holds her tightly, making Alana feel even more loved, she said, which unhappy woman has a husband whose face looks unfriendly yet very affectionate like the man she hugs right now.
"Ken..." Hearing Alana's call, Ken, who had just closed both eyes, now forcibly opened them.
"What's wrong?"
"Hungry..." Alana explained her face.
"You had dinner last night, ate so many snacks? how can I be hungry again?"
"So the hungry me, now your son!" refute Alana.
"You said you wanted to buy me ice cream?"
"Tomorrow, yeah. I'm really tired of having to go out the house again." Ken's words only made Alana silent and so irritated.
Ken snorted little. "Take away? if you want I'll get Uncle Lux to buy him.
"Yes, I want to. I want to." replied Alana excitedly. Ken sat down and was followed by Alana.
"Ice cream with nutella seems delicious." Alana swallows her saliva imagining how delicious it is to enjoy ice cream with a mixture of chocolate jam.
"Alright, wait here, I'll have Uncle Lux buy you Ice cream and nutella." Ken got out of bed and went to the guard and driver outside the house to ask him to buy what his wife wanted.
Afterwards, Ken returned to the room and took Alana to sleep, Ken closed his eyes and fell asleep instantly, but not with Alana who realized that she was awake and impatiently waiting for the food she wanted to come immediately.
A soft knock on the door was heard from outside his room. The woman rushed down from the bed and opened the door. Seen Uncle Lux standing with two plastic bags in his hand, he thrust the plastic bag to Alana and say goodbye to her.
Alana was so excited to head to the kitchen, pick up a spoon, then go back to her room. Slowly shut the door so as not to make her husband wake up.
Alana sat on the floor, opening two bags that contained one jar of nutella and also one box of medium-sized ice cream.
Alana impatiently opened the lid, poured a few spoons of nutella over the ice cream and mercilessly devoured it.
"It's so bad." Alana rolled her head around, as if being in heaven could eat what she wanted. Not giving a pause, he finished the ice cream until it was not left out of place.
Feeling unsatisfied, Alana also did not hesitate to scoop nutella jam and eat it just like that, even though before pregnancy, before pregnancy, Alana is very disliked and avoids sweet foods let alone eating nutella jam without using bread like this. But did not make himself nauseous, even make him want to spend the jam, but his throat is almost pained feel unable to spend the chocolate jam.
Alana stood up and put the little nutella jam on the bedside table. He walked into the kitchen, took some water and dissolved the remnants of the sweet food from his mouth.
"Eherm, my throat almost hurts."
Alana went to the bathroom to brush her teeth. Then, she returned to her room, crawled up to the bed and pulled Ken's hand to hug her, until the gesture woke her husband up.
"Has Uncle Lux come?" ken asked, both eyes narrowed blurry, his voice sounded faint, because he was really tired.
"Here, I've eaten the ice cream and nutell, '" Alana replied as she rubbed her slightly wet mouth.
"Let's go to sleep. Hugged me!" Alana tells Ken to tighten his arms.
Ken was about to close his eyes again, however, both eyes accidentally looked at the table that was filled with jars of nutella that looked almost exhausted. Both Ken's eyes widened perfectly, he immediately sat down.
"Alana, did you finish the nutella jam?" ask Ken.
"No, I still left it a little." Alana sat up.
"Son, I want to finish it, but my throat is so sore." Alana swallowed her saliva, feeling her throat almost hurt from eating the nutella.
"Jeez, Alana.." cried Ken. "Have you lost your mind spending so much nutella jam?" he yelled in annoyance. Alana was silent, Ken immediately went down and left the room, then, he returned with a large glass that showed water in it.
"Come drink this!"
"I was drinking."
"Drink more, your throat hurts!" ken's orders, Alana assented it and again gulped the water until it ran out.
Just because of eating nutella, before going to bed Alana had to close her ears because she never stopped getting scolding and spiritual water from her husband.

The next morning, David was seen standing in front of a mirror while tidying up his neat clothes. Looks uncluttered, but he feels there is still less.
Ashley stood beside David, watching his best friend from top to bottom. "Where are you going so early? do you want to see your future wife?" he asked while placing both hands above his waist as if looking at him full of search.
"No, I want to deliver Valerie's groceries that were left behind last night" replied David. Still busy tidying up his shirt collar.
Ashley brushed off a wry smile. "Just deliver Valerie's groceries, you're as neat as this?"
"Why really? I always dress well!"
"Unusually, other than work, you've never been this lame, let alone just-"
"What only?" david shouted while murmuring.
"N-no, forget it! Go out there, Valerie's waiting for you!" ledek Ashley's. David glared at both of his eyes.
"I mean Valerie must be waiting for you to deliver her groceries," Ashley chuckled and passed away from her best friend.
"Shit, what's so weird? why is he taunting me like that?" aspersons David.
***
David was in the car heading to Valerie's house to deliver the woman's groceries left in her car last night.
Upon arrival, David parks his car perfectly in Valerie's yard. He got out of the car carrying a plastic bag believed to belong to the woman, with excited footsteps, he approached the door of the house that looked tightly closed, the back of his palm lifted and immediately knocked on the wooden door many times. Feeling no words, David was about to knock on the door again, but he pulled it out, when a woman's voice came from inside.
Chequelek
The door partially opened, showing Valerie standing and still holding the doorknob, her wet hair wrapped in a white towel, slightly making David unmoved at the sight.
"David you're here?" valerie's greeting only made David slightly brush off his smile.
"Sorry, I just finished my shower. Come inside..." Valerie opened the door of her house wide, and allowed the man who was now her boss to enter the house and told her to sit on the sofa.
"What's this early you're here for?" valerie asked, looking in surprise as she sat across the sofa that David was sitting on, making the two of them now sit facing each other.
"Ehm, I'm here to deliver your groceries." David handed Valerie the plastic bag he was carrying.
"Mood stuff?" Valerie accepted it and checked the contents of the bag.
"You forgot about it all night in my car" David said.
"Gosh, I deserve to find nothing. I guess last night I forgot to buy it, it was left in your car, thank you very much, David. So trouble you," said Valerie.
"Have you had breakfast?" ask Valerie.
"Ehm, not yet, after this I'll look for breakfast."
"It's almost noon, you better have breakfast first, I happen to finish cooking. Let's have breakfast together." Valerie stood up to invite the man into the kitchen.
"No, I don't want to bother you, I just want to deliver your groceries."
"Absolutely not a hassle. Think of it as my thanks, because last night you were going to give me a ride and deliver my highest groceries."
David was still speechlessly confused, he was not used to eating at a woman's house. But he also could not refuse Valerie's invitation. David stood up. "All right..."
Valerie smiled as David accepted her invitation. David walks after Valerie who is walking ahead of him, showing the kitchen in his minimalist home. Valerie pulled out one of the chairs and told David to sit there, pick up the plate and move the food on the empty plate. Makes the man feel cared for.
"Thank you..."
"You didn't have breakfast, either?" ask David.
"Breakfast, but wait a minute, I'll just go to my room first."
David assented.
Valerie passed away leaving the kitchen to return to her room.
While waiting for Valerie, David's eyes looked around. Lots of food that has been packed and stacked neatly there to make him wonder.
"Why does Valerie pack that much food?" murmured David.
Shortly after, Valerie came back to him, long hair half wet now scattered freely, to show the woman's face. Making David's attention instantly distracted by it.
"Sorry, I made you wait." Valerie placed her body and moved the food on the empty plate she had just picked up.
"Let's eat!" his orders began to land a spoonful of food in his mouth, as did David.
The two of them began to enjoy their own food, while throwing small talk on the sidelines of eating.
"You cooked all this?" david asked as he chewed on the food in his mouth. Valerie.
"Not good, huh?" ask Valerie.
"Very good, you're good at cooking" David praised.
Valerie smiled in embarrassment at the compliment. "I'm not that smart."
"But really very good. Then, why are you packing so much food?" david asked, his eyes pointing towards the pile of food boxes at the end.
"Oh, that. I'm going to give you that food."
"For whom?" ask David.
"For anyone," Valerie replied as she continued to eat her food.
"Oh..."
***
After breakfast, Valerie took a large box and moved the food she had packed into the big box. David approached Valerie and stood beside her.
"Where are you taking it?" tanyakanya.
"To the bridge close to my house, I want to leave for a while, you still want to stay here first, or want to go home?" ask Valerie.
"Why did you go to the bridge?" david asked, clenching his forehead.
"Deliver this food."
"Can I come with you?" ask David.
"If you allow it," he added.
"If you want, of course you can..."
After getting permission from Valerie to share the food, they both passed out of the house. David takes over the big box brought by Valerie. Want to put it in the car but Valerie forbids it, she prefers to walk because the location of the bridge from home is not far away.
David and Valerie walked in tandem. David, who was carrying a box filled with food, looked exhausted, as he felt the road to the bridge was not as close as Valerie had said. However, he did not show any fatigue in front of the woman.
upon arriving at the bridge, Valerie takes over the box from David's hands.
"Please wait here..." David assented. He did not move his position at all and noticed Valerie's movements walking away from his reach.
David frowned curiously, when he saw Valerie near the bridge. "What did he actually do?" he folded his stocky hand over his belly, still watching Valerie from a distance.
Soon, street children were seen approaching the woman, one by one of them taking food from the box Valerie was holding. David gasped when he saw it.
"He distributed food to those children?" David moved his position and walked over to Valerie who was still busy distributing the food.
Up close, David was still watching Valerie smiling and talking to the children.
"Will Valerie not accompany us?" asked one of the girls who was holding Valerie's hand.
"Other times Big Brother will accompany you yes, today Brother cannot because there is a need." Valerie smiled, rubbing the boy's head. Understanding Valerie's words, they all say goodbye to Valerie and leave from there. From a distance Valerie saw the children were enjoying the food she had cooked.
"You're very familiar with them." David's voice dropped Valerie's gaze. Looking towards the man.
"Yes, every two days I see them."
"They have no place to live?" ask David.
"They live in a halfway house like an orphanage located not far from here, but the place is not well maintained and far from decent, the manager also really dislikes me, too, that's why I can only meet them here, they are unwanted children and are abandoned by their parents" Valerie said with a worship gaze.
"Why doesn't the manager like you?" ask David.
"I used to want to give them a hand to fix their place of residence, but the caretakers refused my help and they accused me if I wanted to, since then they've all prevented me from coming there."
David was silent, staring fixedly at the woman beside him at the moment, not believing that she was far from what he had been thinking.
Valerie turned towards david. "Let's go back," he asked. David agreed, the two of them walked back home. David occasionally glanced at Valerie, as if composing a word.
"Valerie, are you busy today?" ask David.
"No, I've done all the homework."
"Ehm, actually I'm really bored. Do you want to accompany me for coffee or just a walk?" david asked, her voice shrinking, afraid that Valerie would refuse her invitation.
"Drink coffee?"
"Yes, if you want to, if you don't want to be okay," said David.
"Of course, I want to." Valerie said excitedly, making the energy channeled to David who immediately became excited when the woman was willing to accept his invitation. David and Valerie hurry to get the car, and David immediately catapults the car to where he had thought it was.
