Love Story of Alex And Desi

Video Calls

Desi ate her breakfast with an empty look. He still hangs his spoon in the air when the spoon is filled with food. His mind was still thinking about last night. Because now he believes that the incident last night is not just a hallucination.

"Darling..."

The call of the mother-in-law managed to keep Desi awake from her daydream. The touch of the hand given by the mother-in-law also made her surprised. Now his eyes were on the mother-in-law who was standing next to him. Put the spoon he held back on the plate. "Mama..."

"Why not eat? You don't have a taste for food? Or is the food bad? Try saying what you want to eat, then let Mama make it." Various Marisa speculations have been expressed. A few minutes ago he noticed his son-in-law who only did two mouthfuls at breakfast. His worries grew even greater when his question was only answered by Desi's headband. It's not usual for her daughter-in-law to behave like this morning. Breakfast which is usually a restroom is not left, it looks like it will leave food on the plate this morning.

"I'm fine Ma..." Desi's reply dispelled the mother-in-law's anxiety. Because she will not let the mother of her husband worry about his unsettled thoughts due to last night's incident.

"Mama..." The call of Sandra who was sitting in front of her brother-in-law turned her eyes now towards him. "Mama's mom doesn't know. Surely brother-in-law is missing brother Alex," Sandra sambar while giggling. He even closed his own mouth because the food that was already in his mouth would come out because he was too excited to tease his sister-in-law.

Marisa and Desi can only smile in response to Sandra's words.

"But really you're not pa-pa?" Ask Marisa to make sure.

"Yes..." Desi answered while holding the mother-in-law's hand. He didn't want to make his mother-in-law worry if she had to tell him about last night's problems.

Desi took Sandra to the mall this afternoon. Accompanied by two trustees Alex namely Adi and Rafi. Desi taking Sandra out is not without reason. He wanted to throw away the saturation he felt. As long as Alex is not home, he wants to go out to reduce the fatigue in his heart because there is no Alex at home for the next few days. In addition, he also wants to eliminate anxiety about overnight.

"Sister-in-law take a look..." Call Sandra and show her the baby clothes she is holding. "Isn't this good? This too? Is this good too?" Sandra asked while taking one by one the baby clothes she took from a hanger in one of the baby shops in the mall that she was currently visiting with her sister-in-law.

Desi nodded her head quickly while smiling widely. He also looks enthusiastic about all the accessories in the baby shop. He also did not lose choosing all the trinkets and all the needs of the baby he is carrying at this time.

While Adi and Rafi they are both victims of the groceries from two women who they respect very much. To the extent that they both had trouble bringing groceries from Desi and Sandra.

Both of them sat down to relax in one of the restaurants located in the largest mall. Both ordered food. They just wait for the food they order. Meanwhile, Adi and Rafi are heading to the car to put all the groceries that have been purchased by Desi and Sandra.

While Desi and Sandra were joking while waiting for a food order, there was also a pair of eyes that were watching the two. Only three meters away the suspicious-looking person was sitting behind Desi. By dressing all in black and wearing a black hat as well, the person disguises his appearance. With the occasional sneaky smile of people who are still loyal to pay attention to Desi and Sandra, it sometimes turns its face when Desi accidentally faces back.

Desi and Sandra looked even more enthusiastic as the food they ordered had reached the table of the two of them. The restaurant waiter left after finishing preparing the food at Desi and Sandra's table. Just as he was about to start his lunch, Desi's phone rang a sign of an incoming call. Desi saw the name of the caller, he looked more enthusiastic and happy after knowing Alex was the one who called him. "Call..."

"What are you doing?" Alex asked as he sat on the sofa of the hotel where he was staying.

"I was having lunch with Sandra at the restaurant."

Desi's reply made Alex remember what happened six months ago. Because he really can't forget when Sandra deliberately ordered food that can't be eaten. "I switched to a video call" Alex said, connecting his phone to a video call channel on one of WhatsApp's apps.

"What's wrong?" Desi asked who could see her husband on the screen.

"What are you eating?" Ask Alex across the street.

Desi switched the rear camera to show what food she was going to eat. "I ate all of this" Desi said, pointing out all the food she ordered. "Look at Sandra who's even been eating," now her phone's camera has shown Sandra who's been eating.

"Have you eaten," Desi ordered Sandra. He went back to using the front camera so he could talk to Alex. "You okay there?"

Alex nodded his head. After making sure all the food ordered by his wife is his favorite food, now he can breathe a sigh of relief. "Now eat. I want to see you eat until you're done."

"All right..." Desi put her cell phone still connected to her husband on the table which is still filled with food. He left his phone in one of the bottles. Then he started his lunch. "You're not eating?" Desi asked while doing the first bribe in her mouth.

"I've had lunch. Now finish your meal" Alex ordered, still staring at his wife's face. Longs. He misses his wife very much. He was only in America for a day. If it is on schedule then two more days of work will be completed. He used his hands to support his chin. Sometimes he smiles happily when he hears chatter from the wife who is shopping for the needs of her baby who will be born in two months to this world. But the happy smile on his lips instantly disappeared as he caught a familiar figure behind Desi. It was exactly two tables away from the wife's desk. "Sweet behind you..."

Desi grabbed her phone and faced back. He looked to the right and to the left. "What's behind me?"

"Redirect the phone to the rear camera," Alex orders an immediate action by Desi.

"What's wrong, honey?" Desi asked who had turned her camera around where she was sitting.

"So it's behind you..." Alex hung up his sentence when he could not find the figure he was very familiar with earlier. Immediately worry seeped within him. "Where are Adi and Rafi?"

"They're here" replied Desi, whose cell phone camera now shows Adi and Rafi standing next to her. Sandra also looks worried when hearing the words of Alex was passing via WhatsApp.

"Go from there immediately. You should go home and stay home. You understand!"

Desi immediately stood up but he still stared at Alex's sudden orders. He even seemed confused by Alex's words.

"Miss we should go home," said Adi who was still not answered by Desi.

"Sister-in-law, let's go home." Sandra said while holding Desi's hand. He knows something is wrong. From the orders of his older brother, he knew that Alex had gotten a bad feeling. Alex's orders must be executed before Alex gives him orders a second time.

In the presidential suite of the hotel. Alex stood up from the chair he was sitting in. Anxiety still raining on him earlier with his own eyes he saw the figure of a man he was very familiar with. "Lad..."
