Ivona smiled to herself as she observed the rooms and rooms she had not occupied for so long. But fortunately, Mrs Carminda paid the neighbors who lived in the hamlet, to clean the room and rooms every three days. All existing furniture, although not in the category of luxury furniture, all are well maintained and in a clean state. Even Ivona's bedroom is also very clean, including the bed where she used to rest has been attached bed linen, and a clean and fragrant bed cover.
Slowly Ivona opened her bedroom window, the afternoon breeze blew on her, and the girl inhaled it for a while. Her lungs felt loose, Ivona slowly sat on the edge of the bed and took a small frame with her picture of herself with Mrs Carmindra. His gaze was fixed on the joy of two women in casual clothes holding hands.
"Mama.., Ivona misses mom.." muttered Ivona softly, her hands gently rubbing the glass lining the frame. This girl realized that it would be very difficult to meet her mother, because Madame Carminda had already returned to the laboratory she had left so long ago. Ever since Madam Carminda found out if she was six months pregnant, and also realized who caused her to get pregnant, then running away was the best path she had to take.
"Ivona is sure.., one day Ivona will catch up with mama. Just wait for the time" said Ivona. The young girl again put the frame on the table, then stepped out of the room. Looking at the corner of the small kitchen in the room, Ivona smiled. Suddenly he had the urge to make a meal for dinner. He remembered the last night he was with Alexander. That night he planned to make instant noodles with duck eggs and green mustard. But not until his wish was fulfilled, in front of his eyes Alexander took the risk by receiving two shots directed to Ivona.
"Sister Alex.., how's brother..?" taking two steps back to lean on the edge of the kitchen room, Ivona tried to regulate her breathing. Her breathing felt tight, and tears began to drip down her cheeks. Suddenly she remembered Alexander Cavindra, the CEO of Kavindra Group who had married her.
"Keep what about my current status.., it doesn't seem like any man will make me forget about Alex. You're Ivona's wife.." Ivona spoke to herself.
After a while she leaned on the edge of the kitchen room, Ivona regained consciousness. He remembered his initial intention of heading for the kitchen. After wiping her tears, the girl approached the refrigerator in the corner of the kitchen. He slowly opened it, and his eyes widened when he saw that his refrigerator was full of fresh fruits and vegetables. Slowly his hands open the chiller and freezer.., and various animal proteins from fish, beef, chicken, shrimp, squid are available complete in it. Feeling doubtful about the year it was made, his hand picked up a pack.., and when looking at the date of its ruler, his lips smiled.
"It's Marcus' most instruction on Esther to fill my fridge." Then after closing the refrigerator again, Ivona wanted to find instant noodles on top of the kitchen set cupboard. After opening it, he had to cut through the disappointment of not finding the item he was looking for there.
"I'll cook the ingredients in the refrigerator, tomorrow morning I'll go out to get back to this place. A lot has changed around here.." Ivona thought to herself. Later due to laziness of cooking rice, Ivona made a boiled capcay and cooked only one serving for herself.
****************
Morning time.. Ivona was awake, having fallen asleep because she felt full enjoying the boiled capcay. Ivona stretched out both her hands, she did the streching to stretch her muscles. For a while the girl spent time relaxing her muscles, then rushed to the bathroom to take a morning shower. Looking at the shower and a simple watering place inside the bathroom, Ivona smiled. There are no black nails when compared to the bathroom facilities in the Iswara family home, especially when compared to Alexander's villa.
Slowly after removing her clothes, Ivona turned on the shower and warm water began to flutter her head. The freshness of the water that soaks his hair and skin, feels refreshing like massaging his skin and head. His hand took the shampoo, then placed it on both palms and rubbed gently onto his head. After feeling satisfied refreshing in the bathroom, Ivona immediately ended her bathing ritual.
"Miss.., Miss Ivona..Well, did you see this?" shutting her mouth in disbelief, Aunt Sonya, a neighbor in the hamlet that Mrs Carminda hired to clean the room, stared at Ivona unblinkingly.
"Yes Aunt Sonya.., this is Ivona." the girl then hugged Aunt Sonya tightly.
"Thank you Auntie.., I helped Ivona keep this room. Even Aunty cleans it every day, even though the house is empty." continued Ivona. Then the girl brought Aunt Sonya inside, and took the old woman to sit on the sofa that looked shabby.
"Non Ivona don't talk like that. The trust conveyed by Mrs Carminda will not be forgotten by Aunt Non. Only you two have been helping the Aunt family. Right now Aunt is very happy, because seeing Non Ivona has recovered, Madam Carminda would be very happy if she found out." with a happy feeling, Aunt Sonya responded to Ivona's words.
Ivona smiled happily at the happiness in Aunt Sonya's eyes. Recalling her plans this morning, Ivona then took a break with Aunt Sonya to come out for a while.
"Auntie.., Ivona's leaving for a minute. Well, take a walk to see the atmosphere outside. It seems like a lot has changed the environment around here.., Aunty here alone is okay. The fridge is also full of groceries, if Auntie's going to cook."
"Well Non.., later after Aunt is done cleaning, Auntie will cook food for Miss." said Aunt Sonya with a smile. The old woman saw Ivona's changed appearance, from the last time before the girl was vegetative in the hospital. The former Ivona, looks very barbaric with an original appearance. But at this time, despite still wearing her old clothes, but the appearance of the girl became more mannered and elegant.
"Thank you Auntie... Ivona must have missed Aunt Sonya's food" Ivona said, then stood up to leave Aunt Sonya.
After picking up her hat, sling bag and wearing boots, Ivona shook her head and kissed the back of Aunt Sonya's hand. The old woman smiled and rubbed Ivona's head, then drove the girl out the door of the room.
