At a simple dining table. A couple sat facing each other to enjoy dinner together. Elisha's eyes did not blink when he saw what was presented at the dining table.
Reynald who had started first, stopped his activities for a moment and then turned to look at Elisha who had just stared at all the food without touching it. "Why don't you eat? If you don't like it, I'll order food outside."
Elisha's head slowly nodded, staring at Reynald's face limply. "That's not the case, it's almost nine o'clock at night. The food you're cooking is full of calories and fat, I don't want to fat."
Reynald took a deep breath and grabbed a glass of water for him to drink. After gulping down the water, he looked back at Elisha. "You will not become fat just because you eat this food once .. You will be fat anyway or whatever it is you will still be beautiful."
Reynald said the word just like that and went back to eating. He had unconsciously made a woman who had never heard a sincere compliment in her entire life, feel that way now.
Elisha seemed to no longer hesitate to scoop rice and side dishes onto the plate. His face seemed so amazed because it had not felt greasy and spicy food for so long.
Since long ago he has always maintained a diet and lifestyle for the sake of a perfect look, but today he seems to forget it all and begin to enjoy the real meaning of freedom.
Reynald smiled at the way Elisha ate, which looked very voracious. "Eat slowly, don't hurry, do you want to add more?"
Elisha thrust his plate in front of Reynald. "Well, I want it again .. Let's just say tonight I sinned against my body and tomorrow I'll burn it directly with exercise."
Reynald fell to Elisha and scooped the rice up on his plate. Not only that, he filled the plate with more side dishes. Somehow he was glad his wife could eat as well as now.
If their relationship is not this superficial, if they are met with a sense of love that was already present before the wedding .. yes, all is only in the word 'ANDAI' but their meeting was already laid out like that and somehow it ended.
Dreet.
Reynald's phone suddenly rang. He immediately grabbed and stared at the screen of his phone. "Melvin called too." He immediately received the phone call.
"Why don't you come home, it's nine o'clock!"
[The party until midnight, brother, I will stay at my friend's place.]
"All right, you be careful. Tomorrow morning go home brother stay at the shop tonight."
[Well! Brother in the shophouse, kept sister Elisha how?]
"He-he's staying here too."
[Wahaha, then happy newlyweds.]
Melvin just turned off the phone call. Elisha who had just noticed, started to be curious and could not wait to ask.
"Where are you going, why don't you go home?" elisha asked who was finished with his meal.
"He went to your cousin Tasya's brithday party" Reynald answered, tidying the dinner table.
"Oh Tasya, it turns out they know each other" said Elisha.
"Hm, Melvin said they were one campus," Reynald said, lifting all the dirty dishes into the sink.
Elisha immediately approached Reynald who was going to wash the dishes. "Here let me help you?"
Reynald turned to his left side, where Elisha was standing. "Have you ever washed dishes?"
"Don't this just be a little, you go back to the room I'll be right up to you."
"Say it's just a little, if that's what I'm waiting for you." Elisha watched every thing Reynald did. He was never curious about small things like washing dishes, but this time he became curious because Reynald did it.
Reynald glanced at Elisha who was watching him very seriously. "You've definitely never seen a dishwasher like this huh, I've been doing this since both of my parents died."
"Hm, I just got close this time to a guy to know his activities." Elisha looked back at Reynald who was currently staring at him, he was surprised because suddenly his husband stopped his activities. "Why stop, it's just a little more."
Reynald just kept silent and kept staring at Elisha. Both of them like this, make him feel like doing things that make him opium. He approached Elisha and put his hands on his slender waist. "Hufft you always manage to shift someone's focus."
Elisha's body stiffened immediately. He gripped Reynald tightly on the shoulder as he felt a touch of demands on his lips. His eyes began to shut and they again enjoyed the sensation that made the whole body feel hot for the umpteenth time.
After a while Reynald let go of their link. He took Elisha's hand and held it tightly. "There's also a Rooftop like in your Mansion, want to go there?"
Elisha's forehead growled sharply, confused by Reynald's words. "Rooftop, you're joking."
Without chiming in with Elisha's words, Reynald drew the hand he had held in his footsteps. He found the times he spent with Elisha so enjoyable.
If indeed this is only part of fulfilling the obligations in the agreement, it should not be as sweet as this. Maybe they don't realize they're starting to cross the safe limit they set themselves. Yes, it may be true, people say, rules are made to be broken.
...**...
The night was getting late, on the roof of the shophouse which was only accompanied by a dim light a small lamp that always swayed when in the wind. A pair of human children were sitting side by side staring at the night sky that looked so crowded tonight.
Reynald turned his head aside, he looked at the woman sitting beside him at this moment, the woman who had already passed such an intimate thing with him, yet was still so mysterious to him. "Can I ask you a question?"
Elisha turned his head and looked at Reynald with a puzzled look. "What mean? You're starting to wonder about my life."
"Hm, slightly. I was just curious about the figure of Mama who you always delirious when sleeping .. honestly that night in her room, you did not stop calling Mama with a sad face."
Elisha's face suddenly became sad, he looked back at the night sky with a pushy look. "Mama is a very patient woman. When Papa cheated on me, he stayed on for me, he always smiled at me even though I knew he was so tormented."
"You must have been devastated by the loss of Mama, I also lost both my parents."
"Yes, I'm down but what hurts more is that I'm surrounded by people who hate my existence, My own father considered me a bully and exiled me to a foreign land for many years. You know, I can't believe that true love really exists. Because I've seen the real picture of the person I love, Papa."
As the wind gushed down Elisha's face, his hair splintered backwards until Reynald could see clearly the expression Elisha was trying to hide from him. Expressions that are so opposite to those that are always shown in everyday life.
Either sympathy or love is currently shaking Reynald's heart, but he suddenly wants to eliminate the trauma from within Elisha. "Yes, you're right don't trust anyone .. Except me, you can depend on me from now on."
Elisha looked slowly. He just kept quiet and kept staring at Reynald. Yes, he again wavers and is exposed to the opposite perception of logic. He felt he had found a new enemy within himself, a heart that gave him foreign sensations that he could not escape.
