Cheryl sleeps on her side, turning her back to Orion who is sleeping in one bed with her. Although he offered the young man to sleep one bed, but somehow he himself now felt awkward.
The room was so quiet, only the sound of the clockwork clanking turning showed at one night.
A rumbling stomach voice suddenly sounded, Cheryl was holding onto a hungry stomach. Cheryl sighed in frustration, not usually she was hungry like this in the middle of the night. His eyelids were still reluctant to open, but the worms in his stomach continued to sing.
“You hungry?”
Orion's voice shocked Cheryl, causing the woman to turn around and stare at Orion who was awake.
“No,” replied Cheryl lying.
“Hm ... Then why not sleep?” orion asked again even though he actually knew Cheryl was hungry because she heard the woman's stomach.
“Are you uncomfortable I sleep next to you, you want me to move to the sofa alone?” ask Orion again.
“Not, I just ...” Just about to answer, Cheryl's stomach rang again, making her close her eyes because she was embarrassed to be discovered if she was hungry.
Orion smiles because it turns out Cheryl is really hungry, she turns on the main light of the room, then wakes up to make something.
“What do you want me to make?” asked Orion who was standing, Cheryl who was still lying down.
“No need, I don't usually eat at night,” replied Cheryl half embarrassed.
“You are pregnant, if you are hungry easily it is common. You also do not need to obey your habits before, because now you have to think about the intake for two lives,” Orion said at length.
Orion had already learned things about pregnant women from a website, just thinking if it would be beneficial in keeping Cheryl up to her word.
Cheryl bit her lower lip, why Orion was so attentive to her, while at first just using it.
“You want me to make you a piece of bread and milk?” orion asked because Cheryl was silent.
Not getting an answer, but seeing if Cheryl is hungry, Orion chose to make what he offered.
Cheryl wakes up as soon as Orion comes out of the room, it feels strange that Orion is paying too much attention.
Orion was busy in the kitchen, making toast with Cheryl's favorite strawberry jam. The woman actually prefers cherries, but since there is no cherry jam, Orion chooses to apply strawberry jam.
Cheryl was still sitting quietly in the room, hearing the sound of steps entering the room, making her turn her head and now seeing Orion walking with a piece of toast on a plate and a glass of milk.
“Eat, don't starve you,” Orion said as he offered a glass of milk and a plate of bread.
Cheryl received and drank the milk until half a glass, then ate the toast made Orion.
“How?” orion asked as Cheryl chewed.
Cheryl immediately looked at the bread with strawberry jam, then looked at Orion who was standing before her.
“Why do you make strawberry jam filling bread?” cheryl asked, looking at Orion.
“Didn't you like strawberries,” replied Orion who never takes away a smile when dealing with Cheryl.
Cheryl chews while continuing to stare at Orion, then takes her eyes off as she swallows before returning to bite and chew.
“I do like it, but don't know you know it,” says Cheryl.
Orion smiled in response to Cheryl's remarks, then said, “Then, you often buy strawberry-flavored milk, drink juice and strawberry flavor, eat strawberry-flavored cake, it's not clear if you like it.”
Cheryl stopped chewing, looking back at Orion who still remembers everything when they were close. Actually close because Orion often asked Cheryl to help him learn math and English.
After saying this, Orion left Cheryl.
Cheryl did not respond to Orion's words, her mouth still chewing despite thinking about the young man's words. He then looked at the glass of milk he was holding, the taste of milk was definitely not the usual packaging milk he drank, but it was the special milk of pregnant women.

“Later tonight, maybe I'll be home late, so can't make you dinner,” Orion said while in the car with Cheryl.
Orion himself is not honest with Cheryl if going to work part time, just does not want to make the woman feel guilty because marrying her makes Orion now have to work too.
Cheryl drove Orion to campus because the young man did not bring a car when he left his parents' house.
“It's okay, I can eat outside before going home,” Cheryl replied.
Orion nodded, then opened the car door and got out of there.
Cheryl looked at the door of the car closed, saw Orion who had walked out of the car, then she chose to go too from there.
Orion walked towards the lecture hall, until his steps came to a halt when a girl blocked his path.
Orion looked at the girl, the girl from the bank department as well.
“What's up?” orion asked because the girl was blocking his way.
“I just want to ask, is this afternoon you have time to study together?” the girl asked in a beautiful manner and had shoulder-length hair, her height did not exceed Orion's, almost parallel when they stood face to face.
“I can't,” Orion replied. He fixed the bag strap on his shoulder.
“Why?” ask the girl a little disappointed.
“I have to work part time this afternoon also the following afternoon, so sorry,” Orion replied explaining.
The girl named Gabriella or often called Gaby looks disappointed, but also can not force.
“Alright, I understand,” Gaby said.
Orion nodded, then resumed his steps past Gaby. Gaby himself felt strange, why young people in rich families like Orion even work part time.
“Ion!” Gaby called while walking quickly after Orion.
Orion stopped, turned his head and saw Gaby walking after him.
“Why do you work part time? Are you having any problems?” ask Gaby. He knew Orion since they first entered the campus, when Orion helped him fill in some data during registration, because Gaby's hand was sprained due to supporting the body when it fell hit by another prospective student.
“Nothing, I just thought I'd like to try working from now,” Orion replied while commenting on a smile.
Gaby forms the letter O with her lips, then walks with Orion to the lecture hall.
“If there's anything, you can tell me. I will be as strong as I can to help you. We've been friends a long time, Ion. There are no problems that you need to cover from me, you know very well how I am,” Gaby said at length.
Orion smiled in response to Gaby's words, then turned to the girl walking beside him.
“I'm really not having any problems. Just want to spend time to useful things, wouldn't it be nice if I could make my own money, use money from my hard work, it feels so much fun.”
Orion gave an easy-to-accept reason, so that no one would be suspicious.
Gaby nodded in understanding, confirming Orion's explanation.
