MALIA

I, who did not see Reiji in our apartment unit, wondered for myself about the whereabouts of the man who was my husband.

It was morning and Reiji was not there. I don't think it's possible for Reiji to go jogging, because his sports shoes are on the walk in closet. Already gone to work it was not, because what I saw in his work schedule earlier, Reiji will only be on duty in the afternoon.

And again, uniforms including the Reiji Navy bag that he always carries while working, are also still in the walk in closet.

Or maybe Reiji has a reserve stock of uniforms at the airport?.

But did Reiji just leave without saying goodbye to me?... Well, even though I've been a little late with locking the door to our room all night.

But before this after we had had a fight, Reiji kept talking and did not silence me.

Keep telling him to go to work, even if not directly-through chat messages.

And then my brain speculates. Did Reiji leave last night?.. I even pointed out in conjecture that Reiji might have gone to Shirly's place. My chest rumbled a little imagining it was true.

But then, my negative guess evaporated when the apartment door opened, and Reiji appeared after the door opened with the package in his hand.

“I buy breakfast.”

Reiji said after he saw me standing near the pantry. But I didn't answer.

“Your dreams are great—“

Reiji sneered, as I opened the refrigerator door.

“Until it makes you forget the division of tasks that even you yourself set.”

I feel like I know where Reiji said it leads, when I see the contents in the refrigerator are quite empty. I forgot to do the kitchen shopping, which is my job.

“I just want to shop today --“ elakku. “Kalo want ingetin I forgot ordinary just don't use nyindir.”

“Oh sorry, I have no intention of insinuating. I'm just saying what I thought.” Say Reiji with ease. "Now, I bought you breakfast."

I'm not saying. My mouth was clenched tightly even to just thank Reiji for buying me breakfast, even though we had a fight last night and I did not let him into our room.

I only noticed Reiji's back, whose man was walking towards our room. But then Reiji paused for a moment his steps, then stood sideways as he looked at me. Then he spoke.

“Sorry if you are offended by my previous words.” Reiji. “As you know, if satirized tuh it does not taste good.”

Then Reiji resumed his steps towards our room, after he had previously thrown a faint smile after Reiji quipped about the innuendo by which I could grasp the meaning of his words.

The insinuations I occasionally make to Reiji are about him and Shirly. That maybe she talked to me, to convey her feelings if there was any innuendo coming out of my mouth about her and Shirly.

That's right, it's not good to be insinuated. But still, Reiji's attitude and speech made my mood plummet.

But my eyes glanced at the package Reiji said he bought for my breakfast. Which makes me grateful. Because other than Reiji saving me from starvation - where I remember I didn't take the time to have dinner with Irsyad last night, and making me not have to eat packaged noodles in a cup this morning.

And well, this morning I felt my stomach so rumbling, because even after arriving at the apartment I did not fill my stomach.

I should have thanked Reiji for still thinking about buying me breakfast, even though he knew that I had neglected to buy groceries.

But the insinuations made my mood drop a little bit this morning. Which is why I shouldn't be angry if Reiji throws such insinuations at me.

Because it feels a little bit Reiji is right. When I was with Irsyad, I seemed to forget everything, even though I did not act far from the norm.

I just feel happy, and with Irsyad I enjoy that happiness.

And well, I didn't even check the contents of the fridge and kitchen, because every time I and Irsyad met, we would have a meal first.

So I did not notice, if only instant noodles left in the cup packaging in the refrigerator, not even eggs.

In addition to just small foods that the amount is also not much following the milk box which is also only one, and tea bags are only half the box.

Even the stock of Reiji coffee I also see no coffee following packaging with one brand that I stock. Now the annoyance and guilt I felt back together with Reiji. My eyes glanced again at the package on the table, after I ignored for a moment the package containing chicken porridge to check the contents of the kitchen.

And I decided to eat it, because my stomach is right – really feels rumbling. But before that, I'll brew tea first. And make a cup for Reiji too.

In any case - even though I was irritated at Reiji due to his insinuation, I – other than in return for the thanks I did not say for the breakfast he bought me, at least I did my duty to prepare for Reiji's needs, even if it was just a cup of warm tea.

--

“Better you fast breakfast—“ sound Reiji makes me spontaneously turn to him. “Before you have eaten or not out last night, which obviously I did not see you eating when you got here.”

“Ya ---“ sahutku slowly. “Which one has you?..” my question later, because it only realized that there is not only one package, but two packages, but, where one is a food paper wrap from the mini market plus in the area of the apartment building where we live.

Which seems like there is not only one type of food in it.

“You choose any you want.” Answer Reiji flat.

Which seemed to be about to take a bath, as Reiji answered me without budging from where he was standing.

“You have no breakfast?”

“I've had breakfast,” replied Reiji.

“Well keep this much food?—“

“Emang my stomach is thick eating this much food?---“.

“Yes eat anything you like, which you want.”

While Reiji was walking casually towards the bathroom.

I was silent, until Reiji went into the bathroom.

Then I looked again at the food Reiji had bought me. Even though we had a fight, at least did he not want to accompany me to breakfast?.

Hah Lia, what do you expect from a husband who knows that his wife wants another man?.

**

“Not your flight schedule later in the afternoon? ..” Malia asked when she saw Reiji, who had just walked out of the bathroom wearing a towel around her waist and into their room, was now neat with her pilot uniform. Here is the Navy bag that Reiji always carries every time he serves.

Reiji only smiled faintly in response to Malia who had finished breakfast with chicken porridge, while Malia's other food was stored in the refrigerator.

“Still still pay attention to my work schedule.”

“And you yourself sent your work schedule to me?”

“Iya. Thank you if you still have attention even though it is just the same hours I work, when your attention has begun to be seized with others.”

“You're rhyming me?” I said to Reiji who had put the navy bag and his phone on the living room table near me sitting - who felt that again – again Reiji was sneering or insinuating about me and Irsyad.

**

Malia immediately gushed Reiji with accusations due to her husband's speech that sounded like a sneer or insinuation to him.

“So a hobby now quip me?”

Malia said cynically. While Reiji smiled faintly.

“This is tea for me is not it? –“ Reiji did not respond to Malia's accusations.

Where Reiji was at the dining table while pointing a cup of tea over him.

“Iya.” Malia answered briefly and flatly.

“Thanks ...”

Reiji thanked her while lifting the cup containing the tea Malia had made for her, but Malia did not reply.

“You say again if I still have his attention even though only the same hours you work, when my attention has begun to be seized with others?!” cynical Malia.

“Yang, The ...” Reiji says. “I told you, I just said what I thought, other than the truth.” Reiji said later.

Malia snorted cynically. “You mean to say you want to discuss the end of – ends of the Shirly, sorry I have no interest in talking about him—“

“I also have no intention to discuss him kok.”

Reiji also replied.

“You're too skeptical ...”

Malia wants to tell Reiji, but the sound of Reiji's phone ringing makes Malia undo her intention to respond to Reiji who says she is skeptical.

Reiji who just said that Malia was skeptical, sipped her tea casually. While Malia spontaneously glanced at Reiji's phone that was ringing and was near Malia.

Where the owner looks relaxed, even though he hears his phone ringing.

‘The most Jill who called ngingetin me to rush dateng to meet the same owner.’ Inner Reiji.

Lazy to rush to receive calls, because he himself is also neat and ready to leave. And Reiji prefers to enjoy the tea made by Malia which for a long time does not seem like Reiji to enjoy.

“Irly is calling!”

Malia called out intentionally after seeing the name of the caller visible on Reiji's phone screen.

Reiji glanced at Malia with his leisure.

“Lift --“ said Reiji still looks relaxed.

“Great!” Malia sniffed ketus. “Thank you anyway? Noisy tau ga?!”

Malia then spoke with ketus once more.

Reiji sighed, then walked up to Malia and grabbed her phone.

“Mati.” Reiji said after he grabbed his phone and sat himself next to Malia.

Malia then throws her face away, and grabs a television remote, which she then presses one of the buttons until the television in the living room in her apartment and Reiji turns on.

“You know as much as I know the schedule of flying in the afternoon continue now you know-you are neat, do not you promise to meet with him so he calls you?---“

“Kalo yes, why?---“
