DESERVEDLY
Chapter 67 - Not by Coercion



For three full hours Intan slept on the sofa Devano rented. Now, both eyes opened slowly, and the first captured was the sight of Devano sleeping in a sitting position leaning against a single sofa.


Your body feels better than it did this morning. His head was no longer heavy. However, the nose feels there is fluid blocking. Also, Intan's throat feels uncomfortable. It's as typical as people who get the flu in the early period.


Intan tried to sit down, and could. He could sit comfortably on the sofa without complaining about the head like before. A moment later, Intan's smile expanded. The real face of Devano is so handsome. Implied also tired face, but covered by an extraordinary attitude that was previously served to take care of his future wife.


At all Intan did not want to disturb Devano's sleep. Intan stood up from his seat, then stepped slowly towards the rented bathroom. There is snot in the nose that you have to throw away. Also, Intan wants to wash his face for the sensation of fresh taste after resting the body for three hours.


Next Intan towards the stove. A small teapot was taken and filled with water. Later ....


Chequek! The sound of the stove when it was turned on was quite loud. Intan was not expecting it at all. And, that's when Devano emerged from the direction of the rented living room. Of course Devano was surprised to see Intan who could already stand upright, even cooking water.


"Are you okay?" Devano approached Intan and directly attached the back of his hand to check his body temperature.


"I've been better, Dev." Intan's smile expands.


"Tan, your voice?"


Devano did not expect Intan's voice to change that much. Indeed, the power of the flu.


"It will heal too." Intan optimistic.


Devano's attention is now focused on the stove and teapot. Nimbly he held onto Intan's arm then asked her to sit on the dining table chair. Intan, according to him, let Devano take over everything.


"I made you some warm tea, yeah." Devano preparing to concoct.


"No, Dev. I just need warm water. Let's not cough."


Intan felt his throat began to itch and will very likely appear mild coughs.


"Wait here for a minute, yeah" Devano's pinta.


Intan nodded. He did not ask what Devano would do after that. Intan only saw Devano come out of the contract and then swing a step turn to the right. While waiting for Devano to return, Intan peeked at the heat of the water. After feeling enough, Intan poured it into a glass, and let stand for a while until it was not too hot. Only then did Intan sip the warm water in order to relieve the throat.


Shortly after, Devano returned while carrying a black crackle. Turns out Devano bought soy sauce and lime. Devano is ready to apply a herb from the mother that is usually made when Devano flu and has problems with the throat.


"What do you want to do?" tanya Intan whose steps began to swing closer to Devano.


"You ... just sit down." Devano escorted Intan back to his seat. Devano's attitude was really gentle and attentive to Intan.


At that time, Intan noticed Devano struggling with the container, soy sauce and lime that he had just bought. Soy sauce is poured sufficiently into a container, then lemon sliced thinly into several parts and squeezed into soy sauce that has been poured first. Devano not only squeezes a lime, but two. Just looking at him Intan had already swallowed his saliva.


Furthermore, Devano stirred up a mixture of soy sauce and lime. Next note for a while, then poured a little more soy sauce so that the taste is not too acidic. That's how Devano thought. This potion was made lovingly for Intan.


"Done," said Devano with a gleeful face. This was the first time for her to imitate the potion her mother used to make.


"Please, Tan. Drink this on this." Devano thrusts a small spoon at Intan.


"For?" ask Intan.


"To relieve the throat." Devano closer the container containing the potion and the spoon.


Instantly, Intan's smile widened. Apparently, what Devano had made was a traditional herb to help relieve Intan's throat that feels itchy and has been coughing lightly. About the taste, yes ... of course kecuuuut. But there is still a sweet taste sensation that feels on the tongue of Intan. The sweetness of soy sauce, combined with the sweetness of the attention that Devano presented to him.


"Drink this every time your throat itches huh. Just one spoon. Because I know it must be a nice nano-nano."


Intan nodded while still enjoying the sensation of a wry taste. Quite wry on the tongue, but its efficacy is really proven in real. Your throat feels much more relieved.


"Thank you, Dev. I'm lucky to be loved by you" Intan said.


Devano misbehaved because Intan called the word love. Indeed, everything Devano does is not only limited to caring, but also spiced up love. Moreover, Intan is indeed his future wife.


Speaking of prospective wives, Devano immediately made a new topic related to their wedding preparations. Devano also recalled the file that Jefri sent the age of the video call earlier. Devano shows the file to Intan, because what Jefri sent was a wedding invitation design.


"Waw, Jefri is okay to make a design." Intan's eyeballs continued to observe while giving praise.


"You likey?"


Intan nodded. "Like it, Dev."


"Do you want a photo couple too?" Ask Devano who suddenly thought.


This time Intan did not give a nod. Intan is shaking. "Later after marriage, yeah. We enjoy our time together. It is also possible if you want to take a full photo of the couple."


"OKAY. I concur. Em ... Tans. When you get married, where are you going on your honeymoon?"


Devano's question was so impromptu. Intan in the position of bribing lime herb and soy sauce auto choking. Rush Devano takes white water for Intan.


"Are you okay?"


Intan shook his head. He is fine, only to be shocked when Devano asks where the honeymoon is going.


"Here I go, yeah. After that I will follow you anywhere," replied Intan in the end.


Two hearts are filled with happy feelings. Both Intan and Devano, they are equally grateful for the destiny that is approaching. Both have been convinced that their love is none other than true love, which will be filled with blessing as well as happiness.


"Thank you for choosing me to be your future husband" Devano said suddenly.


Fortunately, this time Intan did not choke anymore. Intan responded with a sincere look, then looked down, and continued drinking the Devano-made potion earlier.


"My heart is filled. Not by force, but by sincerity." Inner Intan. She was grateful that her love for Devano was not a forced feeling. Intan consciously and sincerely chose Devano.


The conversation continues again. And, more about wedding preparations. In this way, Devano's desire has really been fulfilled. There is no discussion about Fani or Sandhi, which Intan discusses is only about marriage.


The food pack near the stove instantly caught Devano's eye view. He immediately remembered Benny. Yeah, that package of food was Benny's gift. Soon Devano picked it up, then prepared two dishes for him and for Intan. It's lunch time anyway.


"Eat first, yuk!"


Intan shook his head. With his condition like this, it felt like there was no appetite. Let alone to eat a lot, eat a little not excited.


"But this is from Benny. Eating, yeah. A little bit is okay" Devano said.


"From Benny? Where is he now?"


"Benny doesn't matter if I'm hitchhiking here?" Intan's worried Benny's objecting.


"Of course not. He's so glad you're here." Devano had remembered Fani, but did not explain that Fani was in contract, even had a misunderstanding. However, in retrospect, Intan will definitely check the history of incoming messages and will automatically know that Fani stopped by to visit.


"Yes, Fani came here for a while. Because he doesn't want to bother you, so he doesn't linger" Devano explained in the end.


Instantly Intan felt guilty for not being able to fulfill the previously agreed appointment. For the sake of making Intan calm, Devano immediately explained that Fani was okay because she did not meet. Devano also explained a little about himself who replied to a message from Fani without permission first. Fortunately Intan did not ask more, did not even discuss the arrival of Fani when rented.


"Dev, thank you for taking care of me. I'd better get to the terminal and go home."


"I didn't allow. Your condition is better, but you're still sick. Your face looks pale, Tan. Your voice is also hoarse. Do you want to teach your students in this condition? They got worried when they saw you."


Devano's talk is really Intan think. Right, what Devano said is a lot of truth. In the past Intan also forced himself to attend school in a state of severe headaches, which there is itself to trouble some people and make his students think, do not have the heart to see Intan.


"You'll get sick first, yeah. Let your condition improve. Once you're healthy, you can teach your students again with passion." Devano's tone sounded convincing, even making Intan so quieter. To the extent that Intan immediately agreed.


"alright. Then I'll stay at Mira's boarding houses again, yeah."


"No I allow it. Stay here."


Eyeballs Intan widened. There's no way he's staying at Devano's, let alone Benny. Time yes Intan woman herself. It feels really inappropriate.


"Benny will stay at the office. He's overtime." The real Devanolah who will soon set. "If you stay here the bed is wider. I'll sleep in the other room."


Thought Devano, Intan's needs during restoring the situation will be more fulfilled if he is in contract. In the boarding house of Mira, everything is limited. There is no stove, and surely the sleep must be crammed because the bed is not too wide. Devano will also be quick to help if something happens with Intan later if there is a contract.


"But, Dev. What do the neighbors say?" Intan's worried.


"Whose neighbor, Tan?"


When Devano asked like that, Intan recalled Devano's contract position. Left right is a lot of houses, but on average not the owner who occupies it, but migrants who contract, some are temporary costs. Not far from Devano's rented as well as many other lodgings that are rented. Besides being closed, the neighbors also rarely greet each other because they do not know. The only ones familiar with Devano are the shop owners' mothers down the street.


"But it's still not good, Dev. We're just two together here. Nights again. It's nothing, anyway. Fears there's a demon wrong address, keeps teasing you." Intan's thoughts everywhere.


"alright. I'll call Mira to accompany you here. Okay?" Devano won't budge. "If you are still lacking, you can invite Fani so many of you."


Intan thought for a while, then agreed. If there was Mira, it would probably be nothing, that's how she thought.


Beres. Devano is happy because Intan agrees. If it is like this, Devano can control the condition of Intan without bothering to be far apart.


"Dev, that. Your cellphone. There's a phone." Intan pointed at Devano's phone.


The Devano phone screen displays the name Sandhi. It was not an expected phone call. Devano hopes that Benny will call him to find out what Fani told him.


"Just give it a shot, Dev. Who knows if something's important."


"Wait here for a second, yeah."


Intan nodded. "But don't fuss with Sandhi huh," Intan's message later.


Devano agreed, although it was difficult to predict. Remember, the incident last night at the restaurant still can not be forgotten.


"What's up, San?" devano asked, his tone made as neutral as possible, as if before this nothing had happened between the two of them.


"I just want to ask, is it true that Fani is still in your contract? I'm gonna go get her. He sent a message to see Intan."


Apparently Sandhi knew that Intan was sick. The reason Sandhi wanted to pick up Fani must have been just a pretext for her to meet Intan, that was how Devano thought. Although still far from being true, Devano is very difficult to prevent himself from making excessive prejudices.


"Intan has improved. There's me here guarding him. If it's Fani, she went with Benny." Devano is not covering up.


"Where do you know them?" ask Sandhi.


"Of course."


Sandhi did not continue the question anymore, as he was aware that Devano was a little reluctant.


"alright. Thank you for being willing to take my call. Sorry, it's been interrupting your time. And sorry for last night. Greetings to Intan. May it heal soon."


"Yes. But I didn't promise to deliver that message to her."


"It's okay. It's up to you. I hung up on him. Thank you." Thank you."


Tut-tut-tut


Phone ends. Devano was aware, there had been frost, but fortunately not to be raised. Next, Devano calls Benny. Bernego briefly, while asking about Fani.


"Rulle, Dev. Fani is aggressive. He wanted to keep going. Good thing today my fortress is strong." Through the phone, Benny's voice was heard whispering. Because he's pinching in the corner of the room.


"Then? He still wants you to marry?"


"Yes that. I also know why. Tomorrow I will tell you. You take care of Intan until he recovers. Oya, about the marriage invitation from Fani, I decided to do it."


"Related, Ben? Marriage because of coercion is not good." Devano.


"I'm not forced at all, Dev. Ichlash. Also hump. Someone wants to be like a guy like me. I'm lacking a lot, but Fani wants to."


"Yes but, Ben ...."


"Easy-after. His advice tomorrow. I'm not staying at the contract tonight. Greetings to Intan. Heals quickly. And you, remember! Hold napsumu. Hoho. Da!"


Benny was in a hurry to end the phone, even though Devano still wanted to ask a lot of questions. Particularly the reason Fani suddenly invites Benny to get married. Although not Devano's business, but still make kepo.


"It is better that Intan should not know first about this," said Devano, then stepped again to meet Intan in the dining room.


When Intan asks about Sandhi who called, Devano only tells a short story, explaining that Sandhi only asks where Fani is. After that there is nothing important. That's what Devano said. In order for Intan not to think things through, Devano immediately told Intan to eat, then returned to rest in the room.


What exactly is Fani's reason? Look forward to this story! Greetings Luv 💜
