Today was a good day for Ares. In addition to his physical condition is much better after adequate rest and silence at home, the existence of Altan also gives positive energy for him. Ares' pain went away with Altan. Playing together, watching cartoons, composing legos, even this day he and the little whiz ate together like before. And just now, Ares had just finished dinner with Altan.
Happiness is as simple as it sounds. The man standing in front of the balcony of his room smiled faintly. Given how happy Altan's face was when this missing father figure was finally found again. Recalling how excited those little eyes looked at him longingly. Remembering every piece of laughter the little whiz who is very very sumringah.
And Ares couldn't help but curse himself given how much time he had wasted on his little hero.
"Sorry Papi yes, Tan." Soft whisper.
The man gave a rough sigh. Just as he was happy, there was a space in his heart that felt empty. Swirling the face of Carnations in memory. Thinking about where he is now. What are. Where sleep. How's condition.
Unknowingly, there was Serena watching him from behind. With cream-colored sleeping pajamas and a cup of hot tea in her hand, the beautiful woman stood in silence. He was looking at the profile of the husband who looked agitated.
Serena realized something was wrong with Ares. From the start the man did not come home. Then when he came home his condition was really chaotic.
It happened just like that morning. The morning Ares' attitude turned indifferent to her. He acted as if he had just lost the most precious treasure of his life. And now this is happening again. And now Serena is still the same as she used to be about what caused Ares this mess.
By trying to brave herself, Serena stepped forward intending to give tea. But when in the second step, Ares is seen scavenging his car and sticking it to the right ear. Serena finally chose to stop. Maybe he should wait until Ares is done with his business.
^^^Mr.Edy, this is Antares Risjad. ^^^
^^^I want to talk to Mr. Tony Louis. ^^^
^^^Could you please connect ^^
^^the phone to him?^^^
Sorry Mr.Risjad.
Mr. Louis has been unable to receive calls from anyone for a while.
^^^Just a moment. I beg you. ^^^
^^^This is important. ^^^
Sorry Mr.Risjad.
Maybe you can try it another time.
Ares let out a slow breath as a sign of disappointment. Tony Louis is the only one he can count on. He's the closest person to Anye. And even if Anye wasn't with him, at least let Ares get the word out. Perhaps his extensive connections could facilitate his search.
^^^Ok, Mr.Edy, thanks for the time.^^^
Serena frowned as Ares closed the call. It feels like the name Ares mentioned in the phone connection was not foreign. Tony Louis's. He thought seriously about where he had heard that name. His brain to think hard so curious.
"Gapain you?" serena squealed in shock as the cold voice greeted her senses. The woman looks wrongly stared Ares by investigating like that. "Nhubbing?"
"e-don't. I'm not eavesdropping."
"Continue?" Ares raised one eyebrow.
"Uhm.. uhm..." Serena is nervous not playing. Her lower lip was shaking. His brain was busy looking for excuses, and that exact reason he found as his eyes caught the cup of tea in his hands. "This. I brought this for you."
Ares just flinching in his place. The air that is getting colder the night makes the wind stronger. His hair was a little disheveled in the wind, and his sleeveless loose-fitting t-shirt made both of his muscular biceps plastered for real. Very handsome even though the kebawahannya just ordinary shorts and home-made flip-flops.
"Diem's cigarette? Here take. Or do I want to help you drink?" Ares let out a rough sigh as Serena's look seemed annoying as she teased him again.
The man walked out of the balcony and closed the glass door. While in the room, he faced Serena who was still consistent with her seductive face. Like his mainstay, there was no expression Ares showed. He was silent with his cold face.
"It's nyamperin. It means it really wants to be in--
"I didn't ask for tea. And I don't want to." Serena was stunned to hear Ares's refusal. Her inertia was used by Ares because the man chose to defer from Serena's presence by hitting her shoulder.
Ares walked lazily towards the bed. It justifies the location of the pillow, then lies the body there. Not to forget he pulled the blanket while turning his bow back to Serena.
And the seductress was heard taking her breath long. With a feeling of a heart that was actually amber, he turned to look at the back of Ares who was covered in a thick blanket. The step of the level sends it up on the soft object. Sit straightened legs with the body leaning on the head of the bed.
"Rare you sure you want the tea?"
Ares quiet. His lips were tightly locked.
"Hey." Serena pokes Ares' arm, and the man pulls her over. The woman pursed her lips. "Rightbrained. Like a whale."
Ares rounded her eyes wide, and Serena did not feel guilty at all.
"Enak loh this is the tea. Made with love, brewed with affection."
Eh? Ares raised both of his eyebrows. What kind of disgusting words are those? And.. who said that? Is Serena unconscious? Or sleep in sleep? Or... Serena is actually asleep and the one who spoke just now is the spirit of Bude Sumiyati who possessed her?
****, Antares?! No good spirits what little?!
"Sweet this, Res. So enaaak. That's an angel again. A complete package is it a kayak that makes?"
Ares' head shook with horror.
Is Serena possessed by Bude's spirit?
"I didn't get into anything, anyway. Suer, man. No rat poison, floor cleaners, clothes dyes, borax, leak-proof wall paint, cyanide like a rare case, on--------and-off
"Whispering," Ares snatched angrily as he turned to Serena. "I don't care if you want to enter the acrylic paint cake, you want to enter what cake, which obviously I won't drink."
"Ups. Sora." Serena closed her lips with a faint smile.
"And one more thing, that same case of cyanide is in coffee, not in tea."
"Oh, huh?" ask her with a shocked face made dramatic. "That means I'm wrong, dong? So not really the news? Or am I reading it wrong?"
"You are dark." Ares turned his back to Serena again and stuffed his ears with his pillow.
"How come it's not dark, the person's face is covered with a pillow." Sindirnya slowly.
"I'm a cry!"
"Thank you for being horrified." Typal Serena deliberately makes Ares angry.
Since Serena had not felt sleepy, her phone was taken on the nightstand. It explores the contents of the phone and opens any application. But about the seventh minute he looked around the phone, seen Ares' head twitching. Maybe the man could not sleep and achy want to change positions, but the prestige again held him.
Serena smiled a little. She wants to re-examine her husband.
"Ekhem. The husband who often scolds his wife and sleeps against her will be tormented in the afterlife. Here are seven sins that a husband can commit. One-of-one
Ares's body kept rising and staring intently at Serena. "You swear me?!"
Serena's forehead frowned. "What?"
"That was just now."
"No."
"Lied."
"Honest."
"You swear I got a sentence in the afterlife, right? Come ngaku!"
"Well? I'm honest, really. Is it true that the husband will be tortured in the afterlife if he ignores the wife?"
"And you mean it's me. Aye, right?"
"No. I didn't say that."
"You should say."
"I'm not saying it's you. My man read my snapgrams again, really."
"Lied again, right?"
"More." Serena showed her phone screen that did display a quote of those words from her friend's snapgram.
Ares was silent. Her lips were speechless when Serena said it was true.
"That's right," Serena twirled her index finger in front of Ares' misbehaving face. "Eat him don't be a paperan. Especially accusing his wife. The sin of tauuu."
Ares brushed aside Serena's index finger. "Diem!"
"Ih, Antares, bad huh. Very bad with his wife. I'm Aduin Mama, youh."
"Basic of the sniffler!"
"Basasan galakin's wife." Serena pinched Ares' left arm, and made the owner scream in pain.
"Aw! Pain, dong."
"Rubber, dong. It's the same."
"Oh you dare to be like me?" Both of Ares's eyes glared sinisterly. And it was ten times as scary as Ares suddenly pulling both shoulders of Serena so that their position was very close.
Serena was not afraid, but her heart was pounding near Ares. He can't control himself. "Return, Antares. Don't be so whiz."
"Why? Scared?!"
"No," Serena casually pushed Ares' face with her palm, causing the man to growl. "I love my loved one, his heart loves to beat."
"Don't believe it? Holding it." Ares's eyes were completely like they were going out of place when Serena casually pulled her hand to touch her chest.
Yes, he is deg-degan. But my heart also goes with gedibag-gedibug. Crazy wooooy deket really the same.
"Do you believe me to deg-degan?"
Ares closed his eyes because these damn eyes could not turn to look at Serena's cleavage that was highlighted from her pajamas that were low side by side. He must be strong. Strong mental, heart, soul, body, and faith.
"It looks like his hands are there. Sampere not moving."
Ares opened his eyes, and Serena's prank face was the first one he saw. When the woman shook her chin pointing down, Ares realized her hand was still on Serena's chest. The man's reflexes pulled him. Serena can only smile.
"I'm getting sleepy, Res." Serena yawned and stretched out her hand.
"Remain the guest kayak report?! Sleep stay asleep. Let what say? Let me be kelonin?"
"By, dong. Let's get good."
Ares's eyes sharpened again. "You're getting brave!"
"Ngadepin a fierce man like you need courage, Res. It's already here."
Ares's forehead shriveled in horror as Serena cupped both of her cheeks closer. "Ngapain, huh?! Leasin."
"Request rations."
"Huh?" Meaning that? Anu's?
"No. Not that ration," he replied as if reading Ares' mind. "Kiss, Antares, kiss. You used to like asking for rations, right if you want to sleep?"
"So what?!"
"And now that you have never asked for it again, so now I ask for it."
"But I don't want to. You have lost your hand."
"Not yet." Urge spoiled Serena.
"Wouldn't. It's good that I'm smelled carelessly. Why do you think I'm an apphhfffttt macem man."
"Ssssttt," Serena's word smothered Ares' mouth. "Can it be? I'm just asking for a kiss, really. It's diem!"
Ares was completely petrified in her current seat when Serena kissed her forehead, then the right cheek continued her left cheek, her two eyes, her nose anyway, and lastly****** a glimpse of Ares' lips. And like nothing happened, the woman smiled thinly and rubbed the corner of Ares' lips wet from her actions.
"Good night, Antares. Have a good night's sleep and a good dream."
...• • • • •...
"Yesoooooo!!!!"
"Yahoooo!!!"
The name called is seen entering the walk closet casually while wearing his watch. Serena's look was very neat ready to the office, while the one who called her looked laughable and creepy because she dabbed her waist in a state of bare chest and the bottom was just wrapped in a towel.
"What the hell, Res, yelling early in the morning?"
Ares shook his chin pointing at the wardrobe that was beside him. Eyes flat. And his lips remained tight.
Serena's forehead wrinkled. "What?"
Ares sighed lazily. "Why the hell does a closet ngunci?"
"Huh?"
"Don't pretend that. Love keys. I'm gonna grab a shirt."
"Well, get a shirt?"
"Make gotong royong! Yes, do the work."
"I know you want to work. I mean, why bother to take it? I'm ready to."
"I don't want to!" Press Ares.
"Look first. Good choice."
"No. Don't want to."
"Well or do I kiss?"
Both of Ares' eyebrows shot up in shock. And she grew even more frightened as Serena walked up to her with a creepy face like a vampire. Her breathing suddenly came to a halt as Serena's left hand rested on her bare chest. Her blood rustled violently as her cold cheeks were touched by Serena's warm hands.
When Ares is ready for whatever happens - kissed for example - he gets a little slap from Serena instead. Her eyes blinked incomprehensibly, and Serena twitched her eyes instead.
"Breathe, Res, will die if not breath," Serena blinked one eye. "Kiss it a little, deh. If you want to wear the shirt, I'll give you."
Serena just left Ares still petrified with an overwhelming feeling in her heart. The woman grabbed the black shirt suit and the dark blue suit she had prepared. And then he sent it to Ares.
"More. Is it good for my choice?"
"I don't want to wear it." Reject Ares cold.
"Something will be sad if you don't use it."
"I don't care if you're sad or not."
"Who said I was sad? This shirt guy's Altan's choice, really."
Ares's eyeballs widened. And Serena bluntly blew it until Ares' eyes flickered.
"Don't keep glaring why, anyway? Let's jump his eyes." Serena is horrified.
"This is Altan's real choice?" Ares's question still felt doubtful.
"Don't believe the same wife. So how? What to dipake? If you don't want it, but the responsibility itself is the risk if the child is sad."
"Obviously you lied to me!"
"Yes, no. I'm here, sir---
"I can use it myself." Ares took the shirt suit rough.
Serena gave a rough sigh and chose to give in. The woman folded her arms around her chest like a supervising teacher watching her exam-ridden student.
"Why are you still here?" Ares asked in anger at once.
"Why indeed?"
"You see me naked, huh?"
"Why do you see your husband naked? No sin, either, right?"
"Are you still fighting, huh? Out no?!" Ares rounded his eyes wide.
"Don't want to." Gel Serena relax.
"Yes, you are." Ares's frowning.
The man took wide strides after keeping his office suit. He reached for Serena's arms and carried her back until Serena's back touched the closet.
"You're getting brave with me now?!" Snarled.
Serena smiled faintly and cupped Ares' cheeks in her grasp. He stared fixedly at the beautiful ocean belonging to the man he loved so much.
"Do you want to know one secret?" Ask slowly.
"I don't want any more mai-----
"The secret is. You can't keep anything from me, Res," he whispered softly. "Including the secret of your love to me..."
"....No matter how hard you deny, no matter how much you try, no matter how much you try to hurt me, no matter how hard you behave with me, your eyes cannot lie..."
"...I know my handsome husband but this fierce heart baiiiiik really," Serena chuckled little while rubbing Ares' jaw. "Outside of the seeming hard-ass, but deep down you have no intention whatsoever to hurt me. In fact, the more you hurt me, the more I squirm your love that is so great to me..."
Serena took a deep breath slowly. "...Until this moment I still can not know what makes us as far as now and you are like me. But, I firmly believe that our situation is not due to the presence of others in our household. Maybe there's something else you can't explain and I don't know..."
"...I'm tired of having to keep crying over our situation. How long are we gonna be like this when none of us wants to change it? So, I decided I'd move. I'll fix us. You have been fighting for five years. Now it's my turn to take over the job. I don't want you to be the only one fighting, I want us to fight each other..."
"...Maybe you're weird about my change of attitude right now. Maybe you are also angry with my attitude that likes to seduce you. But this is my way, Res. The way I convey love. My way of building us. And this is how I'm desperately defending us..."
"...Please give me permission to start building this. Don't be too close to shutting the door of your heart. Let me in, or at least nongol dikiiiiit..."
Serena hugged Ares very warmly. He hugged her full of sincerity. His closed eyes could already explain how deep the longing he felt for the owner of this body was.
After feeling enough, Serena pulled her body off a hug. He smiled sweetly which made both of his dimples look.
"We start all over again, will we not? PDKT again yuk?"
