Only a Substitute Wife
11. Hm, Funny Too?

“Clara, you don't have to cook. Let Aunty be here,” said Aunt Nani who held back so that Clara did not need to cook.

Clara shook her head quickly. “No to Aunty. I want to keep cooking. I cook for me anyway. Udahlah, this is just plain fried rice,” reject Clara

Aunt Nani can only resign because Clara doesn't want her to help.

After he finished making breakfast for her, he just went to the table and sat there. In the midst of his preoccupation eating breakfast, suddenly the sound of pantofel shoes sounded down the stairs. Of course Clara was able to catch who it was. Who else if not her super arrogant husband, Keenan.

But Clara preferred to be quiet. It was as if he did not consider the existence of that man. Maybe because of the effect he was still upset because of last night's incident where Keenan insulted him.

Keenan walked towards the dining table and sat there. He watched Clara eat her breakfast. But the woman does not consider her existence.

“Did you just make breakfast for yourself?” ask Keenan

Clara was silent as if she had not heard what Keenan had said. That made Keenan quite upset. A sneaky idea popped up in his brain. A smile was also seen on his face.

He quickly pulled the plate in front of Clara and ate the food. Clara widened her mouth over what Keenan was doing.

“Ihh, why did you take it?! That's mine!” clara protested with nosediving eyebrows.

“This is my home. So, everything here is mine,” Keenan chimed arrogantly while returning to eating the food without guilt.

Clara immediately growled in annoyance. He got up from his seat and approached Keenan who was still engrossed in eating the food he made.

“Bring here is not the food. I made it. So it's mine!” clara's protests are back.

Keenan shook his head while showing a face eager to be pierced by Clara.

“No. This food I have,” reject Keenan

Clara stomped her feet in annoyance. “Ihh, so evil anyway. Balikin. Balikin!” clara complained that she wanted to grab the fried rice, but Keenan instead held it back.

“Ah!”

The eyes of the two were glued to each other as Clara almost fell on Keenan who was still sitting on the chair. The distance between the two faces is very close. Neither Keenan nor Clara wanted to break that eye contact.

She looks so beautiful when seen this close. Her eyelashes are very plump and especially those lips. Why am I suddenly so anxious to kiss her right now? ~ Inner Keenan

Similarly, Clara who somehow did not want to take off her gaze with Keenan. The handsome face of the man made him not want to look away.

However, the sound of the house phone ringing, making the two immediately release eye contact. Clara was wrong. Similarly, Keenan who pinks a little to control himself.

“A-I'll lift it,” Clara said in a slightly stuttering tone as it passed from before Keenan.

Keenan just nodded his head. While Clara immediately headed to the middle room to pick up the house phone that continues to ring.

“Halo. Who is yah?” ask Clara when she picks up the phone call.

[“Halo Clara. This is Mama dear,” said Maya who turned out to call.]

“Oh Mom! Iyah Mama's. What's up?” ask Clara back.

[“Begin, Mama wants to invite you two to come home tonight. You see, Keenan's sister has returned from Canada,” explained Maya]

Clara frowned. Because he actually doesn't know if Keenan has a sister.

“Adik? Brother Keenan has a sister?” ask Clara carefully.

[“Eh?! Iyah, Mama forgot to tell me about Keenan's sister. Him it...”

“Mama!”]

“That's who Ma?” ask Clara

[“Sorry well dear. That's Keenan's sister. We'll talk again. Mom wait for you two to come. Don't forget to tell Keenan. Tell him if he does not want to come, Mama will remove his name from the family list,” explained Maya]

Clara grimaced at the words of her in-laws.

“Myah Mama. Later I will tell Brother Keenan,” chimpal Clara

[“Ya. If so, Mama closed first. Ma's....

“Mama!”

“Daddy, wait a minute. See you at home later baby,” reply Maya]

The call was switched off by the in-laws.

Clara remained silent in her place. Somehow he seemed to know the voice of the man who was Keenan's sister.

“He must be a spoiled child. Just look at the way she called Mama Maya like that. Is it possible his nature will be 11:12 with the man? Ahhh! It would be a disaster if until that really happened,” muttered Clara who shuddered in horror if her sister Keenan would be the same as Keenan's nature.

“Hei!”

“Ahh!” clara screamed when suddenly someone touched her shoulder.

Clara looked at Keenan who was looking at her in confusion.

“You are why the hell? I think I just saw a ghost,” complains Keenan

You are a ghost who always scares me ~ Inner Clara

Keenan flicked his finger in front of Clara's face.

“Hey, why daydream? Who called?” ask Keenan

“O-Oh, it was Mama who called. Mama asked us to come home later because your sister came home from Canada,” explained Clara

Seen a surprised look from Keenan even though he did not show too much.

“Why did he suddenly go home? Is there anything important about him coming back here?” mumbling Keenan

“Hm? What was? You said something?” asked Clara who was like hearing Keenan speak in a small tone.

Keenan quickly shook his head. “Nothing. I'll pick you up later to go home. I have to go to work,” Keenan said as he passed from in front of Clara.

While Clara only showed her confused face with Keenan's attitude which suddenly became strange.

“Why with him? Very strange anyway,” complained Clara while entering the house.

In his car, Keenan suddenly remembers his little quarrel with Clara where they were fighting over food. He smiled broadly as he recalled Clara's childlike behavior by stomping her feet against the floor. I don't know why it's so comforting to her.

Really, he never felt like this to a woman close to him. Never had he seen a woman who showed her true nature like what Clara did. No need to fear being a bad image in front of others. It seems that bothering Clara will be her mandatory list every morning.

“Hmm, funny too,” muttered Keenan with a wide smile.

The driver, Mr. Cahyo, was quite surprised to see his own smiling master at the back. Really, he had never seen such a master. Usually will show only flat face.

What a rare sight!
