Fear of Marriage

Wife-to-be

Karenina stretched her muscles, she opened her eyes one by one. He was silent looking at the figure he was missing lying next to him while looking at him. Karenina closed her eyes and opened them again to make sure she wasn't dreaming. They looked at each other before they finally smiled. William who woke up first began to bring his face closer and put their lips together.

Though initially quite surprised, Karenina slowly returns William a kiss. Just for a moment, the kiss only lasted for a moment. Just as a longing release kiss that William gave so gently. They smiled again as they released the kiss. Can't imagine how William feels right now.

“Why are you here?” William began their conversation this morning with a question that had intrigued him since last night.

“What time are you home? How can I not feel at all”, said Karenina who asked back.

“You slept like a buffalo, I hugged, I kissed no wake-up”, Karenina gave a couple of punches on William's arm, the man just chuckled, it was so nice to make Karenina upset.

“Why can you be here?” he said repeat the question. They are still sleeping facing the side. Both William and Karenina are reluctant to move from the comfort they now feel no matter the sun out there that continues to move up.

“She looked for me at the office, I was afraid she was looking for me at home too so I hid here”, she replied honestly. “Sorry yes, I again entered your apartment without permission”,

“I'd be mad if you went somewhere else. I told you, you can come anytime, consider this yours” too. Karenina smiled, as she expected that William would not be angry that he had entered her apartment without permission.

“I think she has forgotten me”, Karenina clucked upset considering Halim, “she hasn't changed at all, it always troubles me”

“Does my mom still see you?”. William switched the conversation, he didn't want Karenina talking about other men right now. According to him, now was the most romantic atmosphere he had ever felt. Talked alone on the bed when he woke up, with Karenina whom he had already broken his heart.

“Mistress Pearl came to me last night at home, but she didn't say anything but went”, William chuckled, her mother probably knew that Karenina was not okay so she didn't want to bother him.

“Call mom, don't call Madam. I don't like to hear it”

“But the Pearl Lady is not my mother, after all she does not like me. Maybe his ears hurt to hear me call him mother”, William no longer chuckles, this time he laughs to make Karenina wrinkle her forehead.

“Excellent and loving woman's book, she can't possibly dismiss the woman her child likes”, William put behind the ears of children Karenina's hair that covers half of her cheeks.

“My hair is already long ya”, she said put her hair together and keep it back. “That's why your mother doesn't like me, because you like poor and ugly women like me”.

Although Karenina did not tell him about her mother offering her some money to leave her, William already knew everything from Farel. William was sure Karenina wouldn't tell him that.

“Hahaaa, my parents never looked at anyone else from her social status let alone from her physical”, Karenina sneered, clearly Pearl was against their relationship.

“But how did you know that your mother met me?”, as she remembered she never told William anything. Karenina does not want William's relationship with her mother to be tenuous just because of her.

“You wear my shirt?” William did not answer Karenina's question and instead asked another question. The smile never disappeared from her face, fortunately Karenina was getting used to seeing William's beautiful smile.

“Iya, sorry yes. I will wash”, he said.

“Why?”

“Why what?”

“Why are you wearing my shirt?” Karenina scratched her non-itchy head. He was embarrassed to say that he missed his girlfriend and wanted to smell her scent through his shirt.

“Ngak accidentally wear, uh even overslept”, he said berkilah. William's smile grew even more, once again he brought his face closer and gave a glimpse of Karenina's lips.

“You're not in the office?” Karenina unintentionally glanced at the clock on the nightstand, the digtal clock was already pointing to the number nine thirty, William turned to look at the clock.

“Then I won't go to the office either, I'll accompany you here” William pulls Karenina and hugs her, kissing her head and hair. Karenina releases herself from William's embrace, she gets out of bed and heads to the bathroom to clean herself up.

“Wake up Will, cook me something, I'm so hungry”, he said whining while pulling William who was still busy lying on the bed.

“Kiss me first”, Karenina rolled her eyeballs and left William in the room, William chuckled then got out of bed. He cleaned himself first before catching up with Karenina to the kitchen.

Karenina was caught looking at Bi Mar who was cooking in the kitchen, the hijab woman lowered her head politely at Karenina with a smile.

“Bi Mar, cook what?” tanyanya sok familiar.

“Again cook squid oyster sauce, non”, Bi Mar replied politely.

“Nina, Bi, Nin is not Non”, Bi Mar laughed and Karenina took over the spatula that Bi Mar held and began to put all the spices in the frying pan that Bi Mar had poured before.

“Let me aja non”

“Bi Mar, Bi Mar can already go home. Let my future wife who continued it”, William suddenly appeared with a face that looked more fresh and bright. Bi Mar looked polite and then went home.

“Bi, wait a minute”, said William restraining the old lady. William re-entered the room, minutes later he reappeared with a paper bag.

“This souvenir for Riska” said he handed the paper bag in his hand to Bi Mar. The woman took it and thanked him. He peeked at the contents and rounded his eyes.

“Master, this..”.

“Nnothing, not expensive kok” he said. William then left the manager of his apartment and approached Karenina who had been glaring at him since.

Karenina elbowed William's stomach with her elbow as the man hugged her waist. William just chuckled and even still dared to kiss her cheek.

“Alas who wants to be your wife” she said with a ketus.

“You don't want to be Mrs William Anggoro”

“Nggak”

“Yakin?” Karenina rolled her eyeballs, William again chuckled. He pulled up the chair then sat down while propping up his chin looking at Karenina who was busy with frying and spatula.

William smiled at the scene in front of him, maybe he should thank Halim because the man had made Karenina want to stay with him, even though William knew that Karenina was only forced to do so.

The cuisine that had been in Bi Mar's residence had been completed by Karenina, William did not help her at all, the man was just busy observing the movements of Karenina while occasionally smiling whether he was imagining what.

“Do not look at me like that”, Karenina arranged her cooking on the table and William still faithfully looked at her. “You want to eat or just see me”, said Karenina again who was already very upset.

He took a plate filling it with rice and side dishes and placed it in front of William, the man turned his eyes to the plate Karenina placed in front of him, he smiled with a different meaning this time. The two of them ate, had breakfast at lunch.
