Devan re-entered his room. Lovi quickly wiped away the trail of tears and rose from the edge of the bed to look for the undiscovered object.
Devan's heart judges itself which willingly makes Lovi like this. But He had to do it so that there was a tense impression that stuck in his wife's heart. Years ago Devan never got this way.
Seeing his wife crying, Devan desperately wanted to hug tightly. But if He did that, all plans would fall apart. Just for tonight Devan must have the heart, his heart must be as hard as a rock, must not be melted with Lovi's tears.
"Crying, that's all you can. Take cover behind the child. It's like I'm wrong" Devan said.
Devan approached Auristella to bring her to sleep. After lying on the bed, Devan glanced at Lovi who was still busy unpacking the contents of the room.
"Yes, look for it again tomorrow. Now I'm gonna take a break,"
"But you haven't taken any vitamins, yet,"
"Then how?! whose fault is it?"
Auristella climbed on Devan's chest and then patted Devan's mouth as if to punish Devan who had violated his words with Andrean that is not going to continue his behavior earlier.
Devan had indeed stopped his anger that had overflowing, but he was still trying to make sharp sentences to hurt Lovi.
Adrian entered his parents' room with a radiant face as usual. He joined his sister and Daddy. And stared confusedly at Lovi who was busy with his own activities.
"Mom, what are you looking for?"
"Don't talk much. If you come here it means you want to sleep," Devan said firmly. He hugged Auristella and her son hid his head in Devan's chest. Adrian hugs Devan from behind. Devan is deliberately in the middle, so that his two little angels do not hold the drama anymore.
"Mom, go to sleep. Tomorrow just dismantle it," Adrian spoke softly to Lovi who immediately smiled at him. Adrian patted the spot beside him, hinting Lovi to lie down immediately.
"Andrean didn't sleep here?" Lovi asked his second child. Adrian answered with a head.
"So I brought him here, he didn't want to. Angry at me all of a sudden. Probably still pissed off with me huh, Mom?"
Adrian does not know if there are two causes Andrean does not want to sleep together in his parents' room. First, still upset with Adrian who was looking for trouble with Auristella and secondly, the sense of not accepting Devan's treatment of Lovi still cherishes his heart.
*******
Devan's plan to upset his wife continued into the morning. It will stop until the show arrives later tonight. Lovi's current feelings must have been mixed. Seeing Devan who seemed to have completely forgotten their wedding anniversary, then scolded Devan for no reason. It was inconceivable how hard Lovi had to endure her emotions.
"I didn't ask for cereal. Why make this?"
"So I woke up too late, couldn't cook anything other than cereal,"
"Why wake up? not usually,"
"Because I was busy looking for your medicine box until nightfall, Devan!" batin Lovi replied.
Andrean's forehead twitched in annoyance. His sharp eyes watched Devan who was tasting his breakfast. He must hold himself. Looks like what Devan talked about last night isn't over.
"I'm willy-nilly"
"Yes, make your own breakfast, Dad. Rather than a lot of protest," said Andrean who had trouble keeping his mouth if it was furious even though Devan did not really have the intention to hurt Lovi, Still there is a sense of wanting to protect.
"Yes, Dad. Daddy's mouth was noisy since then," Adrian also muddy the atmosphere to defend his Mommy. This kid doesn't know anything like his brother. Devan does intend to see Adrian's reaction when Devan scolds Lovi. Whether it's the same with Andrean or not. Last night Adrian was busy playing so he did not know that his brother had a fight with Devan.
By doing this, Devan knows how much his two children feel about Lovi. They could already judge which side to defend.
"Today, I'm going to the office a little afternoon. Now make me some corn soup!" tell Lovi.
"How dare you hurt Daddy?"
"Daddy also dared to hurt Mommy. That's the consequence,"
Lovi did not argue. She immediately got up to make the food her husband asked for.
"Mommy, eat first. Cook it later,"
"Daddy wants it now. The stomach is hungry,"
"Eat what Mommy has made so as not to be hungry. Just made it hard,"
"You-you-"
"Daddy, want to keep arguing at the dinner table?" the voice in Andrean interrupted. Devan codes through the eyes of Andrean so as not to make himself a corner party, hoping Andrean helps him in carrying out the action. Andrean could not. He could not bear to see Lovi.
"You guys continue the breakfast. Mommy just cooks for a minute,"
Auristella immediately pulled the end of the shirt Lovi was wearing. He shakes, not wanting to be left out.
"Attay, Auris. Mommy's coming back, again,"
eventually the boy let Lovi stay away. Andrean looked at his sister for a moment. Auristella hasn't had breakfast. He was enjoying a special snack for her. When Lovi wants to give her breakfast, Auristella refuses. Instead of just watching the people around him have breakfast, Lovi just give a snack.
His little hand had trouble picking up the contents from the packaging he was holding. Apparently stay a little more.
Andrean took Auristella's plate and took the food from her sister's hand. Intentionally, he will pour Auristella snacks into the plate so that his sister does not have trouble. But Auristella screamed unwillingly.
"Okay, sorry-sorry. Please proceed then," said Andrean while raising both hands. He did not dare to do anything if his little sister had shouted like that. His good intentions were even met with rejection, so Andrean was again busy with his activities filling the stomach.
"What do you want to cook, miss? isn't your breakfast there?"
"Morn soup, Netta. "
Netta nodded and started helping Lovi to prepare the ingredients. Netta wondered too in her heart. Who asked for corn soup? Devan then? but not usually he wants a breakfast menu more than one.
"Devan, why not eat it? you're usually pretty greedy,"
"Waiting for corn soup, Ma."
"Oh, is it being made?" He sat near his three grandchildren. Then look at their meal this morning.
"Yes, but it's been a long time."
"Wait a minute! if you are impatient, it is better to do it yourself. Andrean had already said that," Adrian let out his grunts with pursed lips.
"Hey, Adrian, don't stare at Daddy so sharply." Senata admonished her grandson gently.
"Yes, he's been disrespectful for a long time, Grandma." Sahut Devan makes Adrian's chest hotter.
"Daddy is disrespectful. Mommy was eating and told to cook. Should've let Mommy finish her breakfast first,"
She blinked her eyes in admiration. Adrian was so mature when he said that. Seen to defend Lovi who he knows is being upset by Devan.
Last night Senata heard the commotion caused by his son-in-law. Unexpectedly, Andrean interfered. He defended Lovi all-out. He and Rena can only shake slowly knowing the attitude Devan took for an impression to feel more contained in his wife's heart.
