"Den princess..." Sayup-sayup Sani heard a soft voice bibik calling her.
"Den princess, wake up...!" the voice was heard again, this time also accompanied by a slow wobble on his shoulder.
"Hhoaahhmmm.... Yeah..." Sahut Sani lazily while slowly wriggling his body.
Sani rubbed his two eyes which still felt as if he was sceptical and sleepy. He adjusted his hand movements as slowly as possible, trying not to injure the cornea inside.
After that, he began to circulate his gaze throughout the entire room that felt increasingly gloomy than before. Sani looked at the reddish-yellow sky outside the house from the window of his room.
Oh my... It turns out it's almost dusk. He did not expect that he would fall asleep for so long on this chair?
His eyes looked at the figure of the aunt who was already standing right beside him. Bibik was already there while carrying the lamp on his right hand. A small fire is already stretched in it with the fuel obtained from kerosene.
She faintly saw the lips of the aunt drawn upwards forming a warm smile within her gaze that was still not one hundred percent focused.
"Daughter, sorry that aunt has been sassy to wake the princess den that seems exhausted. But soon it will be dark. Bibik should go home before dusk comes." Serious bibik with a face that looks like regret.
"Yes bik, I know! I'm also sorry for making auntie bother these few days." Sahut Sani tried as relaxed as possible.
"No, den princess! I don't feel bothered at all. If the princess allows it, I can stay tonight. I can help den princess keep den Kerta here."
"No-no... That doesn't need a bik! Better aunt go home now. I know, aunt must be tired once all day already working alone taking care of the house. I can definitely take good care of Kerta's mas. Aunt calm down. " Push Sani subtly.
"Right, the princess doesn't want me to go with her?" bibik asked doubtfully.
"Yes, bik! I can do it myself, really!"
"Well then bibik pamit,"
Sani just nodded slowly while giving a small smile to auntie.
Bibik left after turning on the other ledge lights hanging on the walls of the room. The room that originally felt gloomy, now became bright with the help of lighting from the lights.
Ah, no! Bibik forgot something before saying goodbye. It seems like aunt forgot to prepare her food. It's past her mealtime, isn't it? Ah, nevermind! It can be taken care of later after he finishes washing his face.
Sani stepped back into the room after finishing washing his face. He washed his smooth face with cold water that made the pore cavity fresh again.
"Neus?"
Sani almost jumped in shock when he found a man was sitting next to Kerta's bed. The man smiled very charmingly with an alluring bright face.
"Cause? You here?" sapa Sani is pleased.
Sena nodded kindly, but she quickly threw her face away and lowered her face down.
Sani felt strange about Sena's spontaneous change in expression. It made him examine all parts of his body, to ascertain if there was anything wrong with his current appearance.
Huh huh? Geez!
Sani almost squealed in surprise when he found his chest wide open. Clearly, the two chewy flesh were poking out from behind his clothes of danger.
The cause is, because the two buttons are now not installed properly in the original place. He forgot not to justify that part when he finished washing his face earlier.
Oh my god, did Sena see that?
As fast as lightning, his somewhat trembling hand immediately buttoned back the tip of his kebaya. Now he realized why Sena immediately threw away such a face? Surely he did it after realizing there was something that should not be seen in Sani.
Sani was already sitting next to Kerta's other bed after he finished tidying his clothes well. Instantly, the atmosphere immediately turned awkward after the embarrassing incident earlier. Both Sani and Sena, they were both silent and busy with their own thoughts.
"Edhmm... Ehemm Sena?" sani's voice tried to melt the atmosphere.
"Yes?" sahut Sena while still lowering her gaze down.
"Comm, anu... You can lift your head now!" sani lirih.
Hesitating Sena began to raise her head back. However, Sena still tries to avoid direct eye contact with Sani. He kept his eyes open by circulating the vision throughout the room.
Sani himself did not know what to do to return to melt the atmosphere between them. He just twirled the edges of his clothes to reduce the nervousness and clumsiness in front of the man.
"Kkrruuyyuukkk.... "
Sena instantly changed the direction of her gaze and instantly looked at Sani with a surprised expression. He clearly heard a loud noise coming from the hungry belly of the beautiful woman. Sena sees Sani seem to hold in shame with red cheeks that make her look cute.

Sena looks deft using a kitchen knife when cutting small pieces of red onion and celadri leaves. His hands were very skillful at playing the kitchen knife as if he was used to it.
After everything he needed was cut off, he started shuffling three chicken eggs that had separated from his shell. Sena whipped the egg dough at a moderate speed while putting a little salt on the dough.
Sena decided to make her meal for Sani after she laughed loudly at the noise of the woman's stomach. And beyond expectations, it turns out Sena is very expert and looks relaxed in concocting the spices needed. Moreover, Sena is also very skilled at using all kitchen utensils.
While Sani himself, since then he only helped Sena by sitting sweet. Sena asked him to sit on the amben placed on the side of the fire stove made of clay.
"Cause? What did I help you with?" tanya Sani offered help.
He felt sad to see Sena who was busy preparing everything alone. Sena did all the things while she would do nothing and just sit around watching Sena work.
"Nyimas doesn't have to do anything right now. Just let me prepare some food for the nyimas." Sena replied while showing off a smile that was as deadly as ever.
"No, Sena! I don't want to just shut up watching you do something for me. Please give me orders so I can help you!" Rajuk Sani is anxious to see himself who does not know much about kitchen affairs.
During this time Sani never use his home kitchen other than to boil instant noodles at midnight. He would rather buy all his food than cook it himself in the kitchen. Because according to him, it will be more practical so that he can still focus well on his work.
But here he could not buy instant noodles and cook them on this traditional stove. Even to light his fire he doesn't know how to do it?
How humiliating!
"Cause? You have to make me useful in this kitchen, or I won't eat even the slightest bit of food you've prepared! Quickly decide right now!" threaten Sani firmly on Sena.
"Nyimas didn't need to feign such ferocity to bully me. Besides, I don't think it's gonna suit the pretty face of nyimas." Sahut Sena relaxed with a stifled laugh! He did so so that his laughter would not explode in front of Sani.
"Aaaappa... The Aapppaa you laughed at? Aakkc... I'm not pretending, Sena!" reply with a stammering word and shy red cheeks.
Sena could not help but laugh after seeing Sani's pretty face as red as a tomato. His laughter just came off in front of Sani who looked increasingly wrong in front of him.
Sena still continued to laugh as she placed the *pane on the clay furnace filled with fire from the burning dry wood underneath.
*Nanangan: A traditional cookware made of clay. It is usually used to prepare dough or cook something without oil.
Little by little Sena began to pour her dough thinly on the pusangangan already hot. He seemed very skillful and deft to do it over and over again until the whole dough ran out.
"Nyimas, can you please help me get that plate?" said Sena while showing her hand towards the plate rack.
Sani laughed with gusto as Sena asked for his help. Finally he felt useful after a long time just sitting around while looking at Sena who was busy preparing her food.
"Nyimas, beware... Your leg!" exclaiming Sena half-collared when she realized Sani's array was wrapped around the rough end of the amben.
Sani's body instantly shaved!
