The Destiny

The Destiny
Keep On Walking


Ray's car goes into the parking area of Ana's restaurant. Ray and Alex get out of the car followed by Yuna's secretary.


"Oh that's Ana. Ana!" Call Alex, the man sees Ana just got off the cab with Rachel.


"Dad!" Call Alex again, waving his hand.


Ana looked over when she heard her name called. The girl smiled and returned Alex's hand.


Ana and Rachel walk over to Ray and Alex, who are standing at the door of the restaurant.


"Where are you from?" Ask Alex.


"Ah— I drove my sister to check the contents." Answer Ana.


"Sister? Is she Kenan's wife?" Ask Alex who does not know with the pedigree of the Ana family.


Ana hits Alex's arm, the girl is very unhappy with Alex's overly frivolous question.


"Don't just talk, it's my half-sister."


"Aw— You love hitting me." Complain Alex.


"Yes, sorry, let's go inside." Ana invites them into the restaurant.


"What do you want to eat?" Ask Ana who then calls one of her employees to come closer.


"I want to eat the food you're cooking, as usual." Said Alex.


Ray's ears are as sensitive as the two men's conversation. He turned his head toward Ana and Alex in turn, asking for an explanation of what Alex said.


"You cook for her a lot?" Ray asked Ana.


"Ah that— yes it's true, I did cook for him, but not too often either."


"That time I asked you to cook for me but you just cooked me all instant noodles." Ray said with a look of disappointed, upset and sad face that he could not hide.


Alex laughed out loud at his brother's words.


"You've only eaten instant noodles by her? I'm— too." Alex was laughing.


Rachel also wants to laugh, but she holds it back, as if Ray is showing signs of something to Ana, but the man doesn't notice it.


"Jealous." Rachel muttered, but could be heard by everyone sitting on that table.


"Right, you're jealous, brother?" Ask Alex to Ray.


Ray averted his gaze, he cleared his throat several times to relieve his nervousness.


Of jealousy? No way, I'm just jealous, that's all. I envy why she is nice to you and not to me, she can smile at you and not at me easily, even though she has told me that I am her friend. A friend should be fair, not favoritism like that. Annoyingly. — Inner Ray.


"That's it, what do you want to eat? Let me cook it for you guys." Ana.


"Really?" Alex asked, looking very enthusiastic.


"No need, after all you can only cook instant noodles right." Ray said with his sour face.


"Who said, sister Ana's cooking is so good, she often cooks healthy food for me." Rachel praised Ana.


"Wah— I envy you, do I have to get pregnant for Ana to cook food for me?"


"Don't be silly. Just tell me what you want to eat, don't waste your time, don't you have to go back to the office and work." Ana said with her firm face, they ended up silent and one by one mentioned the food they wanted to eat. After that, Ana went to the restaurant kitchen to cook.


A few minutes later, Ana comes back to the table with her employees, carrying a tray of food they want.


A smile was seen from the faces of Alex and Rachel, the most enthusiastic among the others. As for Ray, he also smiled, smiling happily, but he held it back, so his face looked strange in Ana's eyes.


"Eat." Said Ana while putting a plate filled with food in front of Ray.


Ray smiled and nodded,


"Thank you."


"Yes, you're welcome." Said Ana who then sat opposite Ray.


Ana and Ray, the two husband and wife who are trying to make good friends, look awkward with each other.


When both of them want to take vegetables on their front plate, their spoons often clash. Intentional or not but the two of them secretly seemed to like it, it could be seen from their lips which was like holding a smile.


Lunch that day— is like a bridge that unites their relationship.


Sometimes, just sitting down and eating together, can bring people closer to each other.


•••


"Ana, tomorrow I'll be here again, I want to tell you something." Whisper Alex to Ana.


From the back of Alex, Ray looks at them without the slightest care. When viewed from Ray's vision, Alex looks like he is hugging Ana, because both of Alex's hands hold both of Ana's shoulders. The misunderstanding made Ray feel annoyed again.


"Yes, of course, come, but it's not free tomorrow." Ana.


"Yes, I know. Thank you for your food. I think— I should get back to the car immediately, my back feels cold, it seems like someone does not like if I'm close to you." Whisper Alex again. The man deliberately wanted to provoke Ray's jealousy continuously, so that his brother was aware of his feelings.


After that, Alex keeps her body away from Ana. Then a small run towards Ray's car. But earlier, he turned towards Ana and waved his hand.


"Bye!" Said Alex.


Ana returned the wave of the hand and smiled at him.


"You love to wave your hand and smile at him." Said Ray who was now standing in front of him.


"What?"


"Ah done. I'll pick you up."


"Eh?"


"Is your hearing problematic? Why do you seem so hard to talk to me? You're very relaxed talking to Alex but not me." Ray said, his tone sounded like a complaint.


"really? But, I feel the same."


"Oh, forget about it. Here's what you need to remember, I'll pick you up, I'll-be-fetch you, jam-put you."


"Yes, he heard it." Rachel.


Ray ignored Rachel, he still focused on looking at Ana.


"Well, now that I have to go back to the office, you don't work too hard. After all, if your needs are lacking, just tell me, I will suffice, you must also remember, I am your husband, I take full responsibility to provide for you. Then I'll go first." Said Ray while shuffling Ana's hair, he smiled at Ana at a glance, then stepped away towards his car.


"Huh, I really like seeing a romantic drama here. Waah— you are both amazing actors and actresses." Said Rachel, she saw Ana who was still still staring at Ray's car that had been speeding and getting away from her distance of view.


Rachel pursed her lips, she felt annoyed that Ana was ignoring her. The woman then turned around and left Ana still standing there.


"Hey Rachel, where are you going? Wait for me."


"Go, I hate you." Said Rachel with her pouting face.


"I'm sorry."


"I'll forgive you, but you have to be honest with me, you like it, right?" Ask Rachel.


"Likes who? Ray's? Hey— that's not possible, we just try to get closer and more relaxed. He just wants us to be good friends, that's all." Answer Ana.


"Ck, lie." Rachel said as she accelerated her footsteps.


"Rechel you have to walk slowly, you're pregnant. Hey!" Said Ana.


"Rachel." Ana Whine.


Rachel, who saw her sister issuing a seduction style, felt unable to get angry anymore.


"Ah— this baby. Yes I forgive you, I'm not really mad at you anyway." Rachel said with a laugh featuring her row of teeth.


"You tricked me, huh?" Ana said as she tickled Rachel's waist, making the woman laugh out loud.


"Ah yes sorry sorry, I'm sorry. That's enough, stop it."


Rachel holds Ana's hands to stop her sister's actions.


Then they looked at each other and laughed.


"Let's go somewhere." Take Rachel.


"Where?"


"Ice cream shop."


"OK madam! Let's go get some ice cream." Ana.


They walked hand in hand towards the ice cream shop which was not far from Ana's restaurant.


Looking at the two of them, as if the world was telling, people would become close to each other when it was difficult for each other.


The two of them, each other's troubles. Ana must always accompany Rachel, and Rachel must accompany the ailing Ana.


But, because of that, they finally helped each other and tried various hardships together.
