At seven o'clock in the morning William was still at Lily's flower shop, the man leaning on the kitchen table waiting for the woman next to him to finish cooking breakfast.


"Are you not working?" lily asked, turning her gaze from the fried rice inside the frying pan to the face of the man next to her.


"You promised you'd make me breakfast, how could I miss it" teased William.


Lily clucked, although upset, but she was glad that someone was waiting for her cooking other than her sister, what would it be like if she had a husband.


"Oh Lily?"


"Hmm?"


"Why don't you live in a big house?" william asked as he thrust out the plate, which he took from the shelf on the side, as the woman asked for it.


Lily turned off the stove, then poured her cooking on the plate. "Too many memories there, especially the figure of the father, he was so perfect for us" he said.


For a moment William chose silence, instead of responding to Lily's words, the discussion about his father always implies a look of hatred from the beautiful face of the woman, especially from her eyeballs when pointed at him.


"Ah Will?" Lily, who was done with her cooking, turned her body to the man next to her.


William looked, "yes?" ask her by raising her eyebrows.


Lily seemed hesitant to make a sound, the woman only gave an unreadable look at the man who was now facing each other with her.


"Say," insisted William.


Lily seemed to gulp, "thank you for the money you sent, that's a lot, really" he said.


A moment of silence, William, who chose to stay silent, only nodded in response, and Lily returned to her dishes that had been moved onto the plate.


"Try it," said Lily as she offered her homemade cooking to the man.


William smiled, "You used to eat" he said.


Lily clucked loudly, "You're afraid of poisoning?" by feeding a spoonful of food into his own mouth.


William frowned as Lily spat out food from her mouth, "Why?" ask the man.


"Don't eat, it's not good, I'm not good at cooking." Lily carries a plate in her hand for her to throw in the trash, but William prevents her.


The man snatched the plate from Lily's hand then sat on the chair located there, this not-so-extensive Lily shop made the dining room and kitchen into one, and Lily sat in front of the man with both hands folded on the table, watching the man eat with her heart.


"It's not too salty, is it? Why are you eating?"


William looked up, Lily's fried rice is not as smart as foreign chef's cooking, but while it can still be eaten it is okay. "I'm hungry" he answered.


Lily looked up, she waited for a romantic sentence to come out of the man actually, for example, she said the food was very good because it was made with love. Uh, what the fuck.


"Why are you quiet?" William asked as Lily looked dreamy.


And the woman shook her head, "if it's not good to eat, you don't have to push yourself to impress me."


William chuckled, "are you impressed?" the question that made Lily cringe.


"Of course not."


The man stopped chewing, and after swallowing the food in his mouth he said. "Tell Ly, do you love me?"


"No," replied Lily who was not good at fooling herself, even if she said she had fallen in love she felt the man before her would not believe it.


William's eyelids flickered weakly, and it was caught by Lily with a sense of disappointment drawn from the look on the man's face. "If you already love me, please tell me, I'm waiting for a reply to that."


Lily snorted with a laugh, feeling disbelief in what the man wanted from her. "Why should I say?" asked Lily who then propped up her chin on the table, her fixed gaze aimed at the man before her.


"I was once caught in a trap of comfort, and when I realized he was gone, it turned out that we had nothing to do with him."


That sentence made Lily speechless, "Don't fall for me Will."


William frowned, "Even if I fell in love for the third time with the same person that you are, I wouldn't deny that feeling."


"Loving me won't be easy, you'll get hurt" Lily said, inexplicably saying the phrase was kind of thrown from the heart.


William smiled, "Oh Lily I know, loving you is like a wave in the ocean, there will be tides later." William grabs Lily's hand and grabs her, "but all you have to know is that, even if it's like that, the taste of the water will remain the same, and it will never change, just as I feel for you."


A moment of silence, the two were silent to each other, Lily had already sunk into the gaze of the man named William who was really so deep, she was unable to return to the surface.


The sound of a chair being hit by someone made the two turn their heads, Leon came by fumbling at any object that might be in his presence.


"Sister, where are you going?" ask Lily, then help Leon to sit in the seat closest to the man.


"I just want to keep you eating,"


said Leon who made Lily turn to William who seemed to tidy up his food scars.


"I have to go home." William said without a voice.


Lily nodded, keeping quiet as the man approached and kissed her forehead, not being satisfied until there, the kiss on the lips intertwined for a little longer, until Lily thrashed and hit the man's body before her, William who laughed without a sound, immediately left with nothing to say.


No one knew when Leon clenched his hands, even though he could not see, but the man could certainly feel the presence of others among them.


"Lilly?" call Leon.


Lily who was still sitting next to the man after witnessing William's departure later said. "What's up, brother?"


"Is there anyone other than the two of us?"


Lily was silent for a moment and then said, "nothing" she said.


And the punch on the table from Leon's clenched hand made the plate on it clink, and Lily was shocked.


"Why did you lie to Ly?" leon asked, and found his brother silent he said again. "Why are you lying!!" angry snapped.


Lily began to cry, she was confused as to how to answer. "I didn't mean to be so big, but...."


"Say, who was the one you were with just now, was that William?"


Lily nodded, but realizing that the older brother could not see it, she said, "yes, it was William" he said, and made the look on his face look angry.


"I'm blind Ly, but I'm not deaf, I can hear you talking to a man, and I'm just blind, not as dumb as you think, either, I can also feel the presence of others among us, Lily.... You've been in William's trap, you've been dragged into it." Throwing sentences along it Leon seemed to have difficulty regulating his breathing, plus the emotions in him that peaked, making the man almost explode.


Lily who was still crying, looked at the sister's face carefully, and the shadow when they were little when the man carrying her appeared just like that, was really what her brother was worried about, was he really caught up in the man's game?


"Stop everything, leave William, don't let yourself fall too deep.
