Home For My Soul

108|Mysterious Guest

~Amarily~

“Gue guest arrival,” said Theo who walked over to me. “Bring that bread and drink, you wait in the room.”

“What? Why should I wait in my room? Who is coming?” many confused. Instead of answering, he took my plate and my glass, and gave it to me. He held my arm and led me back to the room.

“Wait inside until I get back. Finish your food, then take a shower, whatever. Do not take a single step out of this room. Understand?”

“I'm not—” He kissed my lips so I can't continue that sentence.

“Gue just want to hear the word understand,” urged.

“OK. I'll be in the room until you let me out.” I also gave up.

Without saying another word, he closed the door right in front of my face. I opened my mouth, not believing what had just happened. Who came until I had to hide like this? Maybe her parents are here? Or maybe he cheated?

Thinking about it, I was starving. So, I ignored her behavior and approached the window. I'd rather eat while looking at this beautiful cityscape. I took a deep breath feeling my eyes heat up. It was like a dream until I was afraid to wake up. Failing to get a scholarship from the government, it turns out I can still come to this city and enter the campus of my dreams.

Anyone who has been willing to help me with my living expenses during college is very kind. The campus is also not stingy to provide scholarships to international students. I have no service to this country or university.

Theo's right. I have heard too much about this campus from Om Azarya. Therefore, I also want to continue my studies in this country. If someone as successful as he learns from his alma mater, why don't I follow in his footsteps? I don't think all my hard work worked.

Then the person I really love is also in this city. The fear that I had felt had to be alone in a foreign land was simply wiped out. The most encouraging thing is that we are getting married. Our relationship status has not changed. He still wants me to be his wife.

Considering our quarrel about my shorts, my face warmed up. I know what my husband does when he's in bed. But I never thought about it well, only in passing.

Not to mention the child. Oh, dearGod. I am no longer a child or teenager. Me and Theo have grown up. After twenty more years of being a child, then we will be parents. Am I ready for that?

Imagine Theo without clothes— Argh! Nope, no. Why am I thinking such a dirty thing? No, it's not a dirty thing. He said the first night was fun. Oh, I have to take a shower. Yes, it's time to take a shower so my brain doesn't think anything.

My bedroom door was knocked, just as I was intending to enter the bathroom. “Lo can already exit.” Theo's voice came from behind it.

“OK!” my answer.

I decided to take a shower just out of the room. He was no longer anywhere when I put dirty dishes in the sink. Maybe he's in the room. Not bothering, I explored the spacious room.

The top cabinet is filled with various dry food ingredients and cooking spices. Lots of stock too. The lower cabinet is filled with various cooking and eating utensils, as well as other kitchen and hygiene needs. Refrigerator full of fruit, snacks, and wet food ingredients.

He's a very organized man. How long did he take care of all this while in college? I know, not yet on summer vacation. Did anyone help her when she moved? There was no television in the sitting room, it seemed like he had no time to watch.

I took a bag of onion rings from the top cabinet and brought them to the sofa by the window. When can I go out and enjoy this city? Theo would definitely not let me go alone. Anyway, I don't know the area around. My number hasn't been purchased either, so I can't use online maps. If I get lost later, I'll trouble Theo.

The door to the room on the right opened, Theo came out in a t-shirt and long jeans. “Yuk, we have lunch,” take him.

“Come!” i'm carefree. I rushed to the room to change clothes.

He held my hand while we were outside the apartment. Instead of taking me through the lobby, he walked towards the side door. I was surprised to see the bike in front of me. He kept walking, then stopped near a bicycle.

“This bike lo. Just got there. And this is lo.” helmet He pointed at the pink bike complete with a basket at the front, then gave me a helmet.

“You shouldn't have done this. I will buy it myself once my tuition is in the account,” I said disinclined.

I smiled, then stood on my tiptoes. She lowered her head so I could kiss her cheek. “Thank you.”

“Sama-sama.” He was wearing a helmet, then riding his bike. “Follow me.”

He took a different path from the restaurant we had headed the previous day. I really enjoyed our trip because he chose a further path. I remembered every turn he took and noticed the location of some of the shops I wanted to visit.

If he had chosen American food before, he'd come to a Mexican restaurant this afternoon. Well, I can't wait to eat a burito. I took his hand and entered the eating place. A delicious scent immediately entered my smell, making me hungry.

“Do you always have lunch at restaurants like this, then cook yourself for dinner and breakfast?” I asked, after the waiter left our table.

“No. Lo just came, so I want to show you some of my favorite restaurants that you will like too,” he replied. “If we eat like this all year, I can go broke.”

I had guessed. Although she was not stingy when it came to buying food, she only took me to the restaurant twice a week when we were originally dating. Eating out every day in addition to not healthy for the body is also not good for the bag.

If I had gotten the money later, I wouldn't have let him pay our meal bill. I have to pay for my own food. That way, I helped him downsize while we were here.

“What does it mean that you will cook our food every day?” I just feel bad.

“Iya. Just chill. Adding one more serving is not a heavy thing. I only cook easy, but healthy food. So, you don't have to think about it. I won't tell you to cook.”

“Not so,” I said slowly. “By the way, you just broke our deal.” He frowned not understanding. “You kissed me in the room.”

“Terus, what do you want? You want to be angry with people who have given you a comfortable residence and delicious food?” his challenge.

“Who is angry?” I said, defend yourself. Also true. He's been giving me a lot since I arrived in this country, when I was angry just because he kissed me?

“Again, that's the only way that I know is powerful to make you silent.” He looked at me seriously. “Lo need to learn according to this prospective husband lo without much debate.”

Really annoying. Not officially being a husband has been demanding. What if it's later? It may not be just a matter close to men that will be in question. I was breathing was also a problem.

“So, who came?” I switched the conversation.

“Bicycle,” he replied without looking me in the eye.

“If it's a bike, there's no way you're telling me to hide. Don't lie.” I squinted my eyes, looking at him suspiciously.

“Gue invited you here to eat, not fight.”

“Oh, so.” I sat down and crossed both hands in front of my chest. He glanced at my hand for a moment before sighing and throwing his face away. “You cheated, yes, so we must have a fight over it? Are you close to a girl?”

“Starting tomorrow, I'll be the final exam of the semester. If you want to look around the campus, just come along. You will meet with the campus on Wednesday, ‘kan?” he said, switching topics.

Not wanting to fight in public places, I gave up. “What can not yet be a student enter the university environment?”

“Bby. Later I show you a comfortable place to wait or you can go straight home to the apartment. The distance is not far.”

He's not overreacting. The food served at the restaurant was very good. Theo let me order again if I want to add, of course I did not refuse. Because his servant was very friendly in serving us. Theo gave a pretty big tip.

We went back to the bike to the apartment. A few meters from the destination, he paddled on, not stopping to cross the road. He said he wanted to continue studying for the exam. Where else would he take me?
