Trying to get started


The night was awkward between Darren and Zea. After their last conversation, Zea asks Darren who won't let her go, and reveals if the baby needs them. However, he was too hesitant to ask seeing Darren himself also seemed not to talk much.


Not wanting to misinterpret, Zea chose not to ask and ignored everything as if nothing had happened. The pregnant woman chose to rest.


Darren who had just finished his college assignment, was about to go to sleep as well. Zea looks asleep. Slowly, Darren lifted the blanket to cover the slender body up to the chest. Then, rubbed his wife's hair while watching her calm face.


'I know what I really am. What is clear is that I will not allow you and our baby to leave me, Darren's inner self-inflicted kiss.

This morning, Zea woke up a little late. She did not see her husband in her room. "Where is he?" tanyanya. She decided to enter the bathroom first to clean up.


Not long after, he was finished with his activities. The pregnant woman was already neat with clothes and a thin makeup sweep on her face. Soon she went out to make breakfast for him and his husband. However, his steps stopped on the side of the kitchen.


"Good morning!" greet Darren with a faint smile.


No, not that smile. Darren's activity was preparing something on the dining table and the apron attached to the sturdy body, which became Zea's concern.


"You ... What else?" ask Zea wonder.


"You think?" Not answering Darren just asked back, while busy preparing food.


Zea was grieving, but no doubt approached and saw the results of her husband's cooking. He was amazed, when several healthy menus were presented at the table. In fact, pregnant milk is already available in high glasses for her.


"Woah, are you really doing all this?" asked Zea in disbelief as she sat herself on the chair.


"Hem," Darren replied briefly as he sat down in front of Zea who was stuck in the table. "I read an article last night about a healthy breakfast for pregnant women. And ... The result is I don't know, you can try it yourself," he explained.


Zea smiled happily. It felt strange, when it received attention early in the morning from her husband. However, it cannot be denied. That makes him happy.


"Well, I'll try!" said Zea reaching for a fork to taste the fruit salad that looks refreshing in her eyes. "Emm, this is so good!" zea's comments sparkle.


Without further ado, Zea immediately tasted one by one the food there. He did not care about Darren who smiled faintly at his behavior. In fact, not a squeak anymore. The pregnant woman had started eating the food.


"Emm, I'm wupa. Eat well!" he said it with a full mouth and ended with a smile.


Darren didn't put out that smile. Although it looks thin, but his heart is not so. It feels happy that envelops the heart when the food he makes is enjoyed by his wife and baby.


'I'm glad you guys enjoyed it.'

Drrt ... Drrt ...


"Who?" ask Darren.


"Hem, no one" elak Zea.


Again, the ringing sound was heard. Darren robs the phone, until he finds out who called. "Why not get caught?" tanyakanya. Zea just put her shoulders in response.


Darren exhaled slowly. He is still upset with Rafka's behavior towards him. However, he also wondered what the man wanted. Without Zea's consent, Darren answers the call.


"Hallo, Ze!" greetings from phone call.


Sontak Zea turned her back when she heard Rafka's voice being deliberately on the loudspeak by her husband. He wants to take the phone to turn it off, but Darren does not heed and instead keeps it away. Until Rafka's voice is heard again.


"Hallo, Ze! You listening?" ask Rafka to make sure.


Darren coded with his brows, for Zea to speak. Zea was forced to chimed in. "Yes, Raf!"


"Where areyou? Are you busy? There's something I want to talk about yesterday" Rafka said.


"I ... I want to go to college," Zea hesitated.


"All right! Lunch later, I'll wait for you at the restaurant in front of campus."


"But ...." Zea hesitated a little considering yesterday's events, which definitely made them awkward.


"I hope you don't avoid. I need a lot of explanation about yesterday" said Rafka who seemed to know Zea's turmoil.


Zea exhaled a rough breath. "All right!" finalised.


Calls were cut off just as they reached the campus. The couple was silent for a moment in the car. Zea was confused how to ask her husband for permission? Whatever happened yesterday was beyond their expectations.


"I'll keep you company" Darren's voice broke their silence. Sontak Zea turned with a face full of questions.


"Aren't you the one who wanted us to start?" darren asked, looking at Zea seriously, to the eyes of the two.


"Come, let's try!"
