You're My Antidote
First Date

It is not easy for the King to open the wounds of the past that haunt him. The injury traumatized him. A wound that takes his soul until he doesn't recognize himself.

King appreciates Rani's efforts to offer help to help him with the trauma he has. He was even very grateful. But it looks like he still needs time for that one thing.

Although Rani became the one who reigned in his heart. Not that he can open his wounds young. He was not ready to feel the wound again.

During this time Rani never asked anything every time he had a bad dream even though King could see that his wife was very curious.

The king thought Rani was just curious about the contents in her dream. Never thought if Rani sensitized that she had trauma in the dream.

"Sir King will, right, heal the trauma with Rani?" Rani, who was still in his arms, asked for clarity.

The king nodded with a murmur. "But give me time to prepare myself" he asked.

After Rani agreed with her sweet smile. The king started running his car to leave the hospital area.

"You want to go for a walk?" bargain King when they get stuck at the first red light. After thinking about it, the King never took his wife to the outside.

They just spend time working and coming home. Their routine after marriage is just that. Their entertainment is just fun in bed. So while they're out on weekends like this, what's wrong if he pleases his wife with a walk. It was not too late afternoon either.

"May." answered Rani enthusiastically. "Where is it, brother?" his wife asked him back, making him snort because his intention pleased his wife. Go where his wife wants to go. Not what he wants.

"When you see what?" bargained for. There are so many things couples do out there.

Honestly, the King is confused about where to take Rani. He never had a romantic relationship. So don't know where to take his wife's date.

They could even watch at home. With the subscription he has to fill his mini cinema. But if they were just the two of them, he would not be able to stop to bother Rani with his own pleasure and end up the wife who was annoyed at him. So the cinema at the nearest mall is the choice. So they can find dinner there afterwards.

"May." said Rani still with the same answer. "There is a third series that aired and Rani has not watched. We'll see that, brother!"

Of course the King doesn't mind. After all whatever they watched, the King preferred to pay attention to the wife rather than the content in the film. Not because he doesn't like to watch. Precisely King likes to watch, especially western films themed action or fantasy. But after several times watching with Rani at home, the King was more interested in observing the expression of his wife who changed while watching. Looks adorable.

In order not to queue when buying tickets, the King prefers to book online via his mobile phone when they arrive at the mall parking lot. The king booked the premiere ticket. Where they will sit in pairs. He doesn't like Rani sitting next to other people. What if the guy is a guy. He did not want any chance of a man taking the opportunity to touch his wife as the movie began and the room turned dark.

The mall looks crowded on weekends, the cinema looks full. Even the King almost did not get a ticket if he was one second late.

His wife looked happy as soon as they were sitting comfortably in the theater. Waiting for the movie to play. Siphon off the drink they previously bought complete with popcorn.

"Sir King has seen series one and two yet?" Rani leaned over and whispered towards him.

"Udah." replied the King accordingly. Responding to Rani about the adventure fantasy film they will watch which is the third series. The movie about the witch caught his attention from the beginning. He still hasn't beaten the Harry Potter series for him.

As the King said, he just stared at the wife from the beginning until the end of the film. He occasionally responds to his wife as Rani begins to comment on scenes in the film. Of course in a whisper because it does not want to disturb other spectators.

After the film ends, Raja invites Rani to eat at the beaf grill in the mall. It felt like he hadn't grilled meat for a long time and ate it straight away. Rani also doesn't mind the choices she offers.

"Where do you want to go after this?" asked the King who flipped the slices of meat that felt was quite cooked.

"Go home, brother. Cape isn't it?"

The king smiled, making Rani curious. "Why Brother King smile."

"No. Just love it when you're more relaxed when you talk to me."

Rani also never used formal language when talking to him. But after his wife became his scheduler, whether in the office or outside the office, Rani more often use formal language.

"Kak Raja said it was stiff. Anyway Rani's afraid of fitting in at the release office."

The king heard it. If Rani follows him, then he can't say anything. Maybe until the end of his life, the King will still use this style of language.

When he was a child, he spoke English because he lived abroad. His father occasionally asked him to speak Indonesian, papi said so that he did not forget his mother tongue. The language the king learned from childhood. Indonesian papi is a formal language. It may also have been a tradition in the Shandika family. Even to this day papa and his mother still use formal language, including the om and tantenya. Only the third generation like Maira and Maina and Bintang have used more relaxed language.

But the king's reason was not because of the traditions he still maintained. The king still maintains his language so that he does not forget the figure of papi in his life.

"Then it is as comfortable as you." said the King later. Whether what language they use, as long as their hearts do not change, what is wrong.

"Are you sure you don't want to go somewhere else?" asked the King to make sure when they got out of the restaurant after paying.

Rani shook her head and rubbed her stomach. "Brand. Cape and sleepy."

"Oh, we'll just go home."

Actually the king was worried that his wife's feelings were still bad. He hopes the sadness that Rani feels can be distracted by this dating event. The more they are active outside, the more the King hopes his wife is more happy.

But seeing the sleepy face of Rani, making the King could not bear and choose to obey what he wanted.
