"Come, Bell! I'll take you home" Kai took off his arms from Arabella's body.
"I want to sleep here with you" Arabella hugged Kai again.
"I can't sleep here. I have to go home."
"Let's get you home!" Kai released Arabella's embrace and clasped her hand.
"alright. But you have to promise to spend some time with me."
"Yes, I promise. Wait here! I put on a shirt first" Kai took the shirt from his closet, then immediately went into the bathroom.
After wearing clothes, Kai immediately drove Arabella home. Then, he rushed back to the Boston Villages.
When Kai arrived, the lights were turned off. Looks like Alula and Aunt May are asleep, because the clock is past midnight. Carefully, Kai immediately entered the house with the spare key he had.
Kai immediately went into the room and found Alula who was asleep in a curled up position. Kai immediately picked up the blanket and immediately enveloped Alula's body. Kai crouched down in front of Alula who was fast asleep. There is peace when Kai sees the look on his wife's face. Without Kai noticing, he smiled as he watched Alula fall asleep.
"It seems like something's wrong with my brain" Kai shook his head.
Kai immediately stood up, then joined himself beside the Hall. He kept looking at Alula who was sleeping behind him.
"Why did I kiss her?" Kai looked at the ceiling of the room, then he cursed his stupidity for kissing his wife.
"What did he think of me after kissing him? And how shall I behave tomorrow?" Kai looked back at Alula's back.
****
This morning Kai was sitting at the dinner table and waiting for Aunt May as well as Alula who was cooking. Kai still wears pajamas on his body because this morning he decided to have breakfast first before getting ready to go to the office. Alula herself wants to cook with her aunt May, because she wants to be a housewife who is in charge of the crater to take care of her husband. Especially at this time he has not returned to get a job, so Alula thinks he should remain productive while at home.
Kai did not fall asleep overnight because he was confused about what to behave when he met Alula. But unexpectedly, Alula this morning was acting ordinary and like nothing happened last night.
"This is for you!" Alula gave a plate of Botherhammen as breakfast for her husband.
"You're giving me Belgian food?" Kai looked at Alula who was serving water into a glass.
"Yes, don't you like it?" Alula sits herself in a chair next to Kai.
"i like it. I often eat Botherhammen if I go to Belgium," Kai immediately sliced the bread with a fork and knife.
"Enak. You cooked it?"
"Yes, I cooked it, and of course with Aunt May's help," Alula began to eat the food on her plate.
Kai looked at Alula who was eating Moules-Frites on the plate.
"Aren't you nauseous early in the morning like this eating mussels and fries?" Kai looked at Jiji Alula who was opening a shell on his arm.
"No, I like to eat this. The shells are delicious, "Alula replied with a mouth full of mussels and potatoes.
"Be careful! It could be that the shell was taken from the sea polluted by hazardous waste, or it could have been contaminated with plastic," Kai said as he ate his morning breakfast.
"Said the seller of this shell was caught in the middle sea, Spain. So, I can make sure it's safe. You will know for yourself what the middle sea is like clean," Alula said as she continued to eat the shells she had opened from her shell using her hands.
"You want to?" Alula took the clam meat and thrust it into Kai's lips with her hand.
"I don't want to," Kai replied nervously and immediately looked towards his plate.
"Try it! It's delicious" Alula put her hand closer to Kai's lips.
"Hows it? Yummy?" Alula asked with a glowing face.
"Lumayan," replied Kai briefly.
"You want some more?" Alula handed back the clam meat she had in her hand to Kai's lips.
"I don't want to anymore" Kai shook his head.
"Come Kai! Open mouth!" Alula forces Kai to eat the clams back.
Kai closed his mouth because he did not like fishy-smelling foods like shellfish. Because Kai kept his mouth shut, the shell in Alula's hand so dirty Kai's cheek.
"I told you I didn't want to" Kai raised his voice in an annoyed tone.
Alula immediately picked up the tissue that was in the middle of the dining table.
"Let me clean your cheeks" Alula flanked Kai's chin with her hand, and she immediately wiped her husband's cheek with a tissue.
Kai looked at Alula's face, which was now cleaning her face. And his gaze stopped on those pink-colored lips.
"I still can't believe I kissed those lips" Kai murmured in his heart.
"Sad. There must have been many men kissing those lips including Alfin and Cleon," Kai muttered back.
"It's clean, '" Alula took her arm away from Kai's face, then she continued to enjoy her morning breakfast. Likewise with Kai, he also resumed his morning breakfast with many questions that adorned his head about Alula.
"Why was she this calm when I kissed her lips last night? Why didn't he get angry and act like nothing happened? Was he used to receiving such treatment from other men? But, why was she so scared back then when Alfin was about to harass her?" Those are some questions about Alula who continues to spin on Kai's head, so it does not feel that each of them has finished the food on their plates.
"Kai?" call Alula when she's wearing a tie around her husband's neck.
"What?" Limpal Kai as his eyes still watched every inch of Alula's face.
"Today I got permission to find a job. I got word on the internet, if at a university close to Beacon Hills is opening job vacancies for teaching assistants. Who knows I'm lucky" said Alula as she tidied Kai's tie that she had placed around her husband's neck.
"Why are you still looking for a job? Didn't I give you 2 cards? Is it less?" Kai took his wallet and pulled out a very limited edition card. The card is a Black Card that is only owned by millionaires.
"Get this !" Kai handed the Black Card to Alula.
"What's this?" Alula took the card and watched it closely.
"Take it. It will fill all your sufficiency if you are still lacking with the two cards I gave you," Kai walked towards the mirror in his room.
"Kai, I don't need this. Even the card you gave me back then was only used to buy food, drinks and Aunt May's salary, too" Alula walked up to Kai who was wearing a watch on her arm.
"I want to work because if I get divorced from you, I can meet my own needs" Alula said.
I don't know why Kai feels disturbed by the divorce words that Alula said.
"Just use it first, it's business later," Kai stared in any direction.
"It!" Alula kept the Black card on the nightstand.
"Kai, I just want to work. I don't want to when we're apart I'm hanging my life back to papa and mama" Alula looked down at Kai who was staring at the window.
"Alright, it's up to you," Kai picked up his briefcase and quickly walked out of the room leaving Alula alone.
