Happy Days



One month after Regina's arrival, she never returned to Bastian's apartment. It disappeared in the earth, there was no news of its existence. After all, never terbesit Bastian's desire to find his ex-lover.


It's possible that she's working out a plan to get back to Bastian. Or maybe he was looking for a woman, who had succeeded in making Bastian, turn away from him. It is also possible that the woman went to look for another man, as a substitute for Bastian in her life. No one knows, just God, that's what Bastian thinks.


He and Amanda have now established their hearts, to continue learning to improve themselves. Learning that both are able to perform their duties and responsibilities as husband and wife. In all things we must learn, including in domestic affairs. Learn to be patient, and also trust each other. The more often they interact, the seeds of love may appear between the two. As they are experiencing now.


Like this morning, Amanda cleaned their apartment. Starting from sweeping, mopping and some other work. Don't be surprised, Amanda used to do these jobs.


After the cleaning was over, he rushed to take a shower. She still had another job after this, preparing breakfast, for her and her husband.


There was no sign yet that the man would wake up. Bastian is still asleep, lulled by the beauty offered by dreams for him. Already earlier, Amanda called her name, from behind her bedroom door.


"Bastian, wake! Open the door, it's noon" Amanda shouted loudly. How not, this has shown at nine in the morning and the man is still not awake.


"Bastian wakes up, don't you want breakfast" Amanda yelled again, apparently not giving up.


Maybe yelling just isn't enough, Amanda has to act more. Amanda checked her husband's bedroom door, unlocked. As soon as Amanda opened the door, she came in. And it turned out that the man seemed to still be asleep so soundly.


Amanda was half-pity looking at her husband's face. Bastian looked so tired. How not, lately work in the office, so much to drain the man's time and energy. Maybe because this was the guy's weekend, wanting to rest completely.


With consciousness not yet fully accumulated, Bastian watched his wife. He thought this was a dream, how could the girl, be in his room. He rubbed his eyes many times to convince himself. Until finally he realized, when both hands Amanda patted his face. Amanda was made angered by her husband. The man stared at him intensely, as if he was a ghost only


"How can you be in my room?" bastian was confused. He clasped his wife's hand, to stop the girl who kept patting her face.


"You don't usually get up until this hour. I've finished cleaning the house, until cooking, you haven't woken up yet" Amanda said non-stop


The man was silent a thousand languages, with a frown expression made. It was as if asking Amanda to stop scolding him. Of course it makes Amanda very anxious, since when her husband is this blanket. Sure enough, the man, is a tiger when he is angry, and will turn into a kitten, if his feelings are fine.


"I'm so tired of Amanda, lately the work in the office is a lot. You know, I come home late a lot, '" he explained


"Ah, I want to sleep again," he said then while intending to lay himself on his bed.


"Eh, don't sleep Bastian anymore. Let's have breakfast first, after that, you want to sleep again it's okay" Amanda said, forcing the kitten's man to wake up


"If you don't want to get up, I won't make breakfast for you anymore" he said


"Ah no, Amanda. If I go hungry, then I get sick and die? You want to be a young widow" he joked. Then in the next seconds, several blows landed on his face, on his shoulders even on his stomach.


"Will talk again, I won't cook for you anymore,"


"Ah, no,"


so the two went through a beautiful morning, spending time together. Feeling this is the second chance, to get closer and get to know each other.
