MARRY A BEAUTIFUL LECTURER

SALADS

...🌺🌺🌺🌺🌺...

Bella wakes up in the middle of the night feeling very hungry. He fumbles at the bed next to him and does not find Rael's whereabouts. Turns out Rael really didn't come home after his departure this afternoon. Bella sat up from her sleep and decided to get out of bed. Before stepping, Bella first breathed her heavy breath. Trying not to think about Rael's change after this morning's incident.

"You're not sleeping?" Haris asked as she watched Bella step down the stairs.

"Eh Dad. It's customary Well, if midnight is always hungry. If you haven't slept yet?" Tanya Bella approached Haris who was looking at some company documents in her hands.

"Dad almost forgot that now you're two. Does Rael still not know? If you don't sleep because of your insomnia, you take the time to check some of these documents. How did he bring you food down? It's dangerous to go up and down the stairs." Haris's question instantly made Bella panic and nervous. There was no way he would complain about Rael's actions to Haris. Just like making the relationship of father and son become increasingly murky, Bella certainly does not want to do that.

"Ah, nothing, Dad. Lagian Rael like a very tired, let him sleep first. I don't want to bother." Bella said with a wry smile and chose to sit next to Haris.

"But that's Bel's responsibility! It used to be that when your mother-in-law was pregnant, Dad was always on standby. Even dad to participate in private cooking to meet his cravings which is somewhat strange, almost every night that." Obviously Haris made Bella smile again wryly. He also wished for Rael to be like that but what could it do if his destiny was even like this. Bella only breathed heavily and remembered the food she wanted to taste tonight.

"It's dad, hopefully Rael will be like that one day too. Now I want to go with Bella to eat, right?" Bella's question looked enthusiastic. He covered his disappointment with the wry smile he showed Haris.

"What do you want to eat, Bel? If it's acid, I raise my hand. I have stomach ulcers, I can't eat that way." Haris smiled back at Bella. Bella immediately nodded and stepped into the kitchen without first answering the question.

A few minutes later, Bella came back to Haris with some groceries in her hand.

"I want to make a fruit and vegetable salad. So you can taste it later, it's a recipe downhill from the mother's family." Said Bella who had been sitting next to Haris back. He put some of the materials on the table.

"Well, if that's what you want. You carefully cut the fruits and vegetables yes. Or not ask the help of the waiter first how?" Ask Haris who sounds a little possessive.

"Not to worry, Daddy, Bella is used to cooking. I taught Bella to live independently since childhood. You want some warm tea, don't you?" Bella asked on the sidelines she was cutting some fruit and vegetables.

"Hm... I guess tonight feels so cold. You make warm milk, yes, it's the milk box in the fridge." Haris replied while confirming the pajama jacket he was wearing.

"Thank you Dad. Dad was very attentive to me. Not just now even since I was a kid."  Bella said with a sweet smile. He was grateful to have a guardian angel like Haris from childhood.

"Father who should thank Bella. Thanks to your marriage and Rael. This house will certainly not be quiet anymore and soon also the laughter and jokes of the grandchildren will fill this house." Haris said expectantly staring around the house by imagining small feet stepping on the floor of his house.

"If you may know, what makes Dad so caring and pay attention to us from the first?" Bella asked as she refocused on the salad she was mixing.

"Then why didn't you explain all this to your late mother-in-law and Rael?" Ask Bella then.

"Dad thinks your mother-in-law doesn't care about the activities you do outside the house. However, it turned out that he was secretly looking to find out. Finding evidence that Dad gave you a little money, made him misunderstand. I haven't been able to explain all that, he has left without knowing the truth. Dad was devastated if he remembered it again, without realizing the small mistake Dad had killed his wife and prospective children who were in his stomach." Haris said at length and sounded a little sad.

"I'm sorry Bella is Dad, Bella shouldn't be asking this question." Bella holds Haris' hand. He smiled warmly so that Haris was not too sad.

"It's okay, baby, you also have to know about this problem. Where is the salad? Dad's been drooling because he's just inhaling the scent." Haris shifted the subject.

"It's Dad, one bowl for Dad and one more bowl for me. What kind of vegetable do you want?" Tanya Bella showed off the results of the salad that she concocted herself.

"Father is a vegetable." Reply Haris who immediately received the bowl given by Bella.

"Then Bella makes warm tea for dad first yes, all make warm milk for Bella." Said Bella who had stood up from her seat.

"Aren't you tired of making this salad? What if we just ask the waiter?" Tanya Haris on the sidelines she was enjoying a salad made by Bella.

"No need for Dad. Bella makein first." Reject Bella who immediately stepped towards the kitchen. While Haris just smiled at the independence of his son-in-law, really not the slightest arrogance. Though clearly he is the only successor of the Wijaya family and also the daughter-in-law of the Genandra family.

A few minutes later. The door of the house is open. Distracting Haris from the vegetable salad made by his son-in-law.

"Where are you from? Didn't Bella say you were sleeping in the room?" Haris asked when he saw Rael's arrival who was still wearing his Levis jacket and denim shoes.

"He lied, I was just out of camp." Honestly Rael makes Haris think that Bella has lied to him. Rael is forced to go home in the middle of the night because she feels something is wrong with Bella. Why did she feel so bad after leaving Bella this afternoon.

Before Haris spoke again, the sound of Bella's steps were bringing steady, distracting them. Bella widens her eyelids when she sees Rael in front of her in-laws.

"You really..." Bella has not yet continued her words. Rael cut his words.

"Why drink milk anyway? Is there nothing else? enek I see it." Cut Rael look at the glass of white milk above the well-established that Bella brought. At once Haris was shocked to hear Rael's tone towards Bella. Usually Rael always said softly to Bella and even said bucin. Bella who was asked by Rael was immediately panicked and nervous, she did not want to tell Rael about her current pregnancy. Given that Rael hates him so much. Bella doesn't want that hatred Rael lays on the baby she's still in.

SERIATE.....
