"Yuk, lunch! I can't wait to taste my wife's stuff" Marshal told Rio.


They came out of the elevator. Just got off the rooftop after finishing his dzuhur prayer.


"Cumbers..."


The Marshal will enter his room, the sound of a familiar call he heard, calling so loudly. Marshal turned body. Amanda with her wiggly smile was walking over.


"I miss." Amanda hugged Marshal tightly. A few days of not meeting made him feel such a deep longing.


"Yes, so am I." Marshal returned Amanda's embrace was not less tight. "Tumben's here? What's up?"


Amanda broke her embrace. "Have you had lunch?" ask Amanda attentively.


Marshal shook his head and smiled. "Newly eat."


"Eat outside, right? With me yes. We haven't had lunch together in a long time," Amanda asked spoiledly.


Marshal. Inside the room was Viona's cooking that was waiting for her to taste. But, she couldn't refuse Amanda's invitation. What should he be now?


"Come, I'm hungry!" Amanda pulled the hand of the Marshal who was still dumbfounded.


Marshal glanced at Rio asking for help. Rio instead shrugged indifferently and entered into his own room which was in front of the Marshal room.


"Come, uh! I'm hungry." Amanda was impatient. Pulling the hands of Marshal who did not want to move.


"Manda, next time, yeah. Ak-"


"can't. I want it now. We rarely eat lunch together. Huh, come!"


"But …."


Amanda ignored Marshal's refusal. He kept pulling the Marshal firmly towards the elevator and directly pressed the button towards the lobby. There hasn't been much time since Marshal got married.


Amanda could not continue to be patient to understand her time with the Marshal that was getting eroded. In addition to those who are busy with their respective jobs, Marshal is also now more at home with his wife. Amanda doesn't like that. He didn't want Marshal time to be divided on other women.


Guiltfully, Marshal was forced to obey Amanda's wishes. He couldn't possibly refuse Amanda's request being spoiled like this. But, what about Viona's cooking that had been prepared since that special morning for her? Marshal wants to eat it. But, she must be full just having lunch with Amanda.


Maybe I'll eat when I'm done with Amanda. I can't eat much to eat my wife's cooking, Inner Marshal.


Inside his room, Rio grumbled indistinctly while eating alone. Viona's cuisine prepared for her, had the same portion as Marshal's. And this is too much according to Rio if it should be eaten alone. But, it's okay. Viona's cuisine is delicious.


"Bodh once the master chose lunch outside. What kind of husband is that? Not appreciating the efforts of the wife at all. Poor Miss already bothered to prepare it. Uh, she had lunch with her boyfriend. You're weird!" grunts again.


Rio was not exhausted with the behavior of Marshal. Having a perfect wife like Viona, he still keeps Amanda who is nothing. Just spoiled, for what?


"Bod*h!" it means more to Marshal.

"Lho, Rio, which master?" viona asked in surprise to see Rio who entered the house alone.


"Master didn't come home with me, Miss. After lunch, I went straight to see my colleague. Perhaps, it is not finished yet," Rio explained.


"Whose master is the same, if you have come home?" viona asked following Rio's steps towards the kitchen.


Rio kept two bags of Lunch boxes on the bar table. "Maybe Miss does not know, in the office there is a special car for the master to bring his own if there is a sudden affair. So sir doesn't need me to pick him up, he can go home by himself," Rio said casually. He sat next to the bar table after taking a glass of water.


What Rio said is true. Earlier when Marshal was having lunch with Amanda, Marshal did not return to the office immediately because the time of meeting with his colleagues outside, had been mepet. Marshal chose to go alone to see his colleague after driving Amanda home. So, Rio did not need to bother accompanying Marshal and was allowed to go home first. Meanwhile, Marshal until now may not be finished with his business, so he has not reached home.


"Lho, sir, don't have lunch?"


Rio who was casually drinking, instantly choked on hearing Viona's words. She looked at Viona nervously as her master opened one by one the bags of Lunch Boxes that Rio had kept her on the bar table, in front of her.


"Why has the master still intact?" viona asked Rio who was still dumbstruck.


What did he have to say to Viona? Does Rio have to tell the truth? But Rio did not dare to discuss it. She's afraid Viona's angry. Either it was angry at the Marshal who had instead chosen to have lunch with Amanda, or it was angry at Rio who had not prevented it. Rio was confused to explain.


"Rio?"


Viona sighed disappointed. But he prepared it sincerely. But the results are not satisfactory. "Other times, you force master to have lunch. Don't miss lunch again!"


Rio nodded just let it be quick. He was very confused facing Viona right now. Marshal is indeed lunch. It's just not eating his wife's cooking.


"Why's the hell?" rio asked in surprise to see Viona who was standing in front of the kitchen sink. He's already folded his sleeves.


"You need this holy" said Viona. He pointed to Rio and Marshal's used equipment.


Rio's eyes immediately glared. He got off his chair and walked over to Viona. "No need, Miss. Let other workers do it. Enough already! Miss can't do this kind of work anymore!"


Viona looked at Rio in confusion. Why did Rio so lecture her? "What's the matter, Rio? I just cleaned it up."


Rio shook his head quickly. "No!" emphatically. "Miss can't do something like this anymore! Why have many workers if still Miss who does it?"


Viona instead laughed at Rio's anger. He patted Rio's shoulder in anxiety. "Not to be lebay! Sir also let me do it, why are you protesting?"


Rio clucked in annoyance. Having an employer like Marshal is also heartless. He could have let his wife do something like that. Where's his attention? "Already, Miss! Don't continue! Ernie! Come here!"


Viona who had wet her hands, immediately turned back to Rio. He grunted annoyedly. Rio's just as annoying as Marshal turns out.


"Evter other workers to clean it up! Let Miss not clean it herself," Rio told Erni who had just approached.


Erni nodded. Executing Rio's orders. As for Viona, her fierce gaze looked at Rio who was without sin instead smiled. "Miss should relax. That's not Miss."


Viona growls. The only person who could be invited to joke around in the house, it turned out to be able to upset him as well. "Sir let me do whatever I wanted, including washing dirty utensils. Why are you banning me?"


"That's because you don't think well. He should have paid more attention to his wife" Rio cuek said and left Viona just like that.


Breathe out harshly. Viona really can't believe that Rio's nature is like that. She knew Rio was quiet and obedient. It turned out that Rio was the same as Viona who liked to sneer. Even Rio was licking his own master. Viona thought Rio was only obedient and submissive to the Marshal's words, not daring to say much.

"Sorry."


Viona's steps stopped. He returned to face the Marshal who was still standing in front of the bathroom. He just got home from work and said he wanted to take a shower. Viona painstakingly prepared everything for the Marshal. But, when he had moved away from the bathroom, Marshal instead said the word "sorry" made Viona did not understand her intention.


"Sorry for what, sir?" viona asked confusedly. They didn't talk much. Why did Marshal apologize?


Intention to enter the bathroom, Marshal undo. He's closing in on Viona. "For the lunch you prepared," he said guiltily.


Viona just looked at him flatly. It is not a problem if the food comes back intact. Only he's upset and angry if Marshal forgets his lunch hour.


"I'm sorry, I didn't eat it." The marshal lowered his head, looking at Viona's bead of eyes wryly. He felt so guilty for ignoring his wife's cooking. Viona had already bothered to prepare it.


If only he had not gone straight to meet his colleagues, Marshal would have sped to eat it even a little. But the time is up and she also has to take Amanda home.


"It's okay, Sir. Next time don't forget about lunch!"


Marshal termangu. Does Viona think she's forgotten about lunch? Didn't Rio say it?


"I'm sorry. But, I had lunch," Marshal said softly.


Viona frowned. He was amazed by the words of the Marshal. "Master's having lunch?" Marshal nodded slowly. "But, why are the food the-"


"That's why I'm sorry." Marshal cupped Viona's face with both hands. His look was sorry. "I had lunch outside."


Viona looked at Marshal intently. Marshal thought he did not like him to prepare lunch so choose to eat outside. "If you don't like me to prepare supplies, sir just say so. Tomorrow I won't prepare it jik-"


"No. It's not that." Marshal shook his head quickly. "I'm sorry. I love that you prepare lunch for me. But, just now," Marshal was silent looking at Viona who was looking forward to the continuation of her sentence. He was afraid that his wife would be disappointed in him. "Amanda invited me to lunch outside. I can't refuse it."


Viona fell silent. He's not angry. "Oh, it's appropriate that no one eats the food. I guess Master doesn't like my cooking."


The marshal was astonished to see Viona's calm reaction. She thought Viona would be angry or disappointed in him. But why does it look so ordinary? "Aren't you angry?"


Viona giggles. Removing Marshal's hand from his face. "Why am I angry? It's even nice if you're having lunch with Miss Amanda. Then Mr and Miss Amanda stay on good terms, right?"


"Huh?" Marshal gaped at Viona's words.
