Solar Throne
Morning Rain

It still rained outside with medium capacity. Gina sat in front of the TV after putting all the dishes on the shelf after she washed them. This time he tried very carefully not to break it again. He dyed looking for where Surya is but not also visible.

"Don't tell me he's back to sleep in the room." Gina muttered while standing up to look for Surya where she was.

Gina opens her bedroom door and Surya is nowhere to be seen. He went to the bathroom and the door opened. It was a sign that no one was wearing it. Gina came out again but this time while calling Surya's name. Sounded in the direction of the back of the house. Gina walked towards where she had heard Surya voice say. Gina passes through an unclosed door and finds Surya doing something.

"What are you doing?"

"Put in dirty clothes, miss." Surya is still moving clothes from inside the basket into the washing machine. Gina.

"Let me do it." Gina started to offer herself up again. Surya stopped his activity and looked at Gina.

"I just finished washing dishes with my hands and without running any bad risks. So, it feels like washing clothes with a washing machine seems to be easier."

"All right, Miss." Surya agreed after being convinced by what Gina said.

Gina approached Surya who shifted her body so that Gina could be closer to the washing machine door. Then one by one Gina began to put the rest of the dirty clothes from the basket. When she was done, Gina intended to close the washing machine door but Surya forbade it.

"This too, Miss." Point the Sun on the bucket next to the washing machine.

It turned out that it was her wet clothes when it was raining earlier. Gina then put it in as well. After closing the washing machine door, he stared at the buttons. I don't know how to start with a washing machine. His whole life he never did.

"First press the water level button first, Miss. Please adjust to the amount of laundry." Surya stood behind Gina but his hand reached over the panel of the washing machine button while buttoning one of the menus.

"Then this." Surya's index finger knobs the menu with an arrow that Gina believes is the start button to start washing.

Then after the washing machine began to respond and sound a sign the washing machine had started to work, Surya retreated from his place and made a distance from Gina's body. Without Gina noticing, she took a deep breath after a while ago holding her breath when Surya was that close to her.

"Oh so yeah. It's easy." Gina was very visible that this was her first time using that thing. Surya just smiled in response.

"Let's wait, Miss." Surya said as he walked out of the laundry room.

Gina still stood in place and felt her chest with a heart that had been pounding violently.

"Why did he make this room so narrow. It's troubling to be occupied by two people like this." Gina flicked her hands to her face which she felt suddenly became sultry.

Gina also left the laundry room and saw Surya standing at the glass door of the TV room. The heavy rain has subsided and left a drizzle that still exists.

"Why? You're sorry your Sunday was interrupted by the morning rain?" Chirps Gina while sitting on the sofa after previously had time to reach the TV remote on the table.

Hearing Gina's voice, Surya flipped over. The first thing he did when he looked at Gina was smile at her. At first glance Gina saw that but then turned her eyes on the TV and started to turn on with the remote in her hand.

"It has become your routine to spend Sundays with all the activities outside the house, this time you are stuck inside the house and can not enjoy the day off." Gina added by still looking at the TV she changed channels because she felt the show was nothing interesting. Surya did not answer but walked up to Gina and sat on the sofa at the very end of where Gina was sitting.

"Why isn't there a good show?" Gina murmured still pressed the remote buttons with anxiety because she felt all TV shows were dominated by talk shows and children's cartoons.

"That's why I'd rather go out on weekends than stay home, miss." Sahut Surya answered Gina's question which he knew was for himself, not for Surya.

"I was never home every weekend. But it's not because there's nothing TV show I like. That's because being home all day and doing nothing and not being with anyone feels so boring." Gina Clear.

"Being in the mall, spending time in the time zone, eating all the food in the various lounge bars there is my favorite after shopping and spending Papa's money." Gina added with a big smile as if proud to be able to choose her own entertainment on holidays.

"Sometimes I also order several menus at once in the food court when I want to eat accompanied by more people." Gina laughed at the end of her sentence after affirming the phrase "eating with a lot of people" was like laughing at herself. Every meal at home, he was alone. So, he prefers to eat out because it does not make him lonely. At the very least, even though one table only had him, but around him he could still see others nearby.

Hearing all of that, Surya smiled. His memory is immediately carried at a moment. He remembered trailing Gina who came out into distros with expensive brand labels. After that, it will go to the time zone. Play there with all the games. After being satisfied to win all the games, he will head to the place to eat. Whether lounge, restaurant or just with food in the food court, Gina seemed to enjoy it. And if he's not too tired, he's going to the movies. See if there are any movies that can be interesting to watch or not. If anything, he would watch it to spend his remaining time. If there was none, he would go to the mini market, buy a snack and eat it there. Until the mini market is almost closed, Gina will go home and sleep.

That's how Gina works on holidays when she doesn't have a boyfriend. Surya is very familiar with Gina's habits. It was an event that could still be said to be safe by Surya. Because if the mood is not good, he will go to the club to find a more crowded atmosphere. In the club there will be frenetic music, there are many people who will invite him to talk even though they do not know each other, he can dance to the music and forget what makes his mood not good. Only, what he never did while at the club was drink liquor or use illegal drugs. He felt he didn't have to touch it if he wanted to entertain himself.

Although she was all she wanted to be alone but, Gina did not want to ruin herself with alcohol or drugs. Not to mention, he went to his own club so that if he was drunk then there might be a bad person who could harm him. When he is unconscious or is being affected by alcohol or illegal drugs, then the martial arts he has so meaningless. He will still be hurt by others. So keeping his sanity from all that intoxicating was his choice.

Surya who used to always watch over him never knew the basic reason Gina never touched an alcoholic drink and he also never found out. He will only try to protect Gina from any harm. And either by habit or by some other means, his protective instincts against Gina were still there even though he was no longer his personal bodyguard. Even until now, Surya is a person who always prioritizes the safety and comfort of Gina. Gina's loneliness and solitude have made her feel like she always wanted to protect her. Then that protective feeling was now slowly becoming a desire to comfort her and want to make her feel happy.

"Why?" Gina looked at Surya who was still silent while looking at her even though she was done with her sentence.

"Oh yeah, of course you know all that." Gina then smiled wryly remembering that.

"Hot chocolate seems good to Miss." Surya stood up from his seat to divert the conversation with Gina.

"Why good for me?" Gina asked because Surya's sentence contained something ambiguous as if something had happened to him so he needed to be soothed with hot chocolate as usual if he was in a bad mood.

"What's wrong with me? I feel fine." Gina's grumble that looks like Surya is accusing her of not being okay.

Moments later Surya appeared with a tray containing two cups of chocolate in the couple's cup and some snacks he bought while shopping yesterday.

"Well, pop corn. It'll be perfect if we watch the movie." Said Gina looking at the contents of the tray that Surya put on the table.

"Good idea. I just bought a new movie CD." Surya approached the TV table and opened one of the drawers there are many CD collections.

"You have a huge collection of movies, and when do you watch them? Did you get a chance?" Tanya Gina was surprised that Surya had a collection of films that much while he knew how busy he had been.

"My busy, I still have time for this, Miss." Surya raised some CDs that were in both hands.

Surya then placed some of the CDs on the table. Gina brought her body closer to the table and looked at the CD pieces in their respective packaging. He saw the title on each of the CD's packaging.

"All action movies. You're a real man." Gina looked at Surya with a look of despair as she saw none of her favorite movies from the Surya collection.

"Sorry Miss, I'm not a romantic drama fan." Solar chuckles. Gina was singing her lips.

"But take it easy. I'll play from the streaming service app on my phone, Miss."

"I don't like watching it from my phone. My eyes can hurt because the screen is too small."

"Don't worry, Miss. I'll play it on TV."

"Can?" Gina asked with round eyes. Surya nodded in response.

And then, after Gina selects the movie she wants to watch from the application on her phone, then she connects with her home theater device.

"Well, you even have something like this." Mumbled Gina.

"My family's completely out of technology. They were too busy with kitchen tools to know that multimedia devices in our homes were too old-fashioned."

"After all, no one's watching a movie in your house, Miss. Everyone was busy outside the house and never had time to watch a movie. Papa also watches TV only for news channels. Mama also watch soap operas more often. You yourself, have you ever been interested in watching TV shows?" Gina shook her head slowly to answer Surya's question and realized that she did not like watching TV or anything. He just likes everything that can take him out of the house. So watching the cinema is more interested than watching movies at home.

The film's plot goes on and Gina watches it well. His hobby is watching movies, so his choice of films that genre romantic drama is like washing it away. On the sweet scene, Gina would involuntarily smile at herself looking at it. Several times Surya stole a glance at Gina and joined smiling to see the expression of Gina's face hurt the film in front of her. Gina loved the film so much that she decided to watch it too to keep her company.

"You know why romantic movies are so fun to watch?" Gina asked Surya while thrusting pop corn in her hand.

"Because the storyline is romantic." Answer Surya origin because he also does not know what is good to watch a romantic movie like they are watching at this time.

"What kind of answer is that." Gerricks Gina. Surya laughed in response.

"I love action movies with all the fighting and suspense from the two opponents playing, Miss. The gunfights and shootouts are fun to enjoy."

"You know, it's actually very scary to see such scenes of violence. Because I know when I experience it myself it's not easy. And again, when your hand touches another human body while hitting, there's something very uncomfortable even if it's done in self-defense or something." Gina's explanation makes him know now why action films are not included in the list of film genres that he likes.

"So, I prefer romantic dramas. It can make me flower at the same time also confused at a certain time. Very good at how I feel." Strictly again.

Surya understood, after all Gina was a woman. Of course he likes things like that. Romantic smelling things that can make it flowery.

Surya subconsciously looked at Gina with thoughts about her. It made Gina awkward.

"Oh yeah, I think the laundry is done. I'll hang it." Gina avoided Surya's disturbing gaze. Making him wrong and embarrassed so he felt he had to end the atmosphere and reasoned to dry his laundry that did not use the facility to dry at once because according to Gina it could damage the clothing fibers.

Surya lets Gina get away from it because she knows what happened to her. Surya reviews the smile. Just then the bell of his house rang. Surya sharpened his hearing again. And once again the bell rings. He became astonished. There are usually no guests who come to their home. He never told anyone where his house was. He also prefers to meet outside if he has to meet someone. Surya memorized also did not order anything online so it was unlikely that it was a courier. He then looked at the monitor inside his house to see who was pressing the bell in front of the fence.

"Surya, pause the movie first. I have to finish this." Shouted Gina from the back of Surya's house. But there is no lawfulness.

"Surya, do you hear me?" Gina's reset made sure Surya listened to her instructions.

"What are you doing?" The voice of a woman from the doorway to the laundry room.

Gina recognizes that the voice does not belong to Surya but to a woman she knows and turns her head.

"Mama..." Gina's eyes were fixed on Bu Marina who was suddenly in front of her. The clothes Surya had in his hand slipped back into the basket. Bu Marina looked at that then looked at Gina straight.
