Caramel's gaze swept across the entire corner of the apartment he had left for 1 month. He had prepared himself before returning to the apartment where Rama had abused him. Home should be the most comfortable place to go home but now it reminds you of the painful. Caramel held back the fear in her, she was an adult and should not be stuck in her trauma anymore. All that has passed, if he can not fight fear it means he also lost to the game of Rama.
"If you're not ready to come back here, we can stay for a while at my official house." Rafka rubbed Caramel's back from behind.
Caramel looked down at Arnesh who was sleeping quietly in his carrier and then he put on a thin smile. There's Arnesh who strengthens me. Caramel muttered in heart. Although it looks strong from the outside, Caramel is actually a person who has difficulty forgetting painful events in the past. Caramel is like a hard clowek on the outside soft on the inside.
"I can't wait to see Arnesh's room." Caramel turned to Rafka for a moment and took a step first.
Rafka smiled, carrying two suitcases and one large bag that holds the clothes of Caramel, Arnesh and himself. Caramel's old suitcase cannot be found as well as other items belonging to passengers. But the most important thing is that their lives are saved.
"That's great!" Caramel screeched as she entered Arnesh's decorated room before they returned home. Rafka did ask for room decoration services to arrange Arnesh's room based on Caramel's wishes. Judging from Caramel's reaction he seemed to like the room.
"Sleeping Arnesh in his box." Pinta Rafka because all the way from Soetta Arnesh airport is in the Caramel sling. Rafka wants Caramel to rest after a short trip from Bali to Jakarta.
Rafka helps Caramel remove the baby's sling before Arnesh is put in her crate. They are lucky to have prepared all the baby equipment before leaving for Bali. If uncertain Caramel panicked himself because Arnesh was born sooner than expected.
"So much as she sleeps." Rafka peeked at Arnesh's cheeks that began to puff up like no new moment.
"If you sleep like you know not." Caramel spoke in a low voice for fear of Arnesh waking up.
"Am I like that when I'm asleep?" Rafka sees Caramel in disbelief.
"Yes, your mouth is open a little, it's gemes." Caramel pokes Arnesh's cheek in a fit of anxiety.
"Don't bother Arnesh anymore." Rafka takes Caramel to their room to change clothes and rest.
Caramel threw her body hard onto the king-sized bed that she desperately missed. Although the mattress in the villa is equally soft but the best bed is the room itself.
Seeing that Caramel had been lying down comfortably, Rafka immediately turned on the AC and set it at 16 degrees as was Caramel's custom. He also opened the curtains so that the morning sunlight could enter the room.
"Would you take a shower?" Caramel slightly raised her head to see Rafka opening the bathroom door.
"I'm checking the whole room." Rafka went into the bathroom, looking carefully at every corner of the room. Although Rama is currently in custody but Rafka must not be off guard, he learns of the Caramel case. If Rafka doesn't leave her phone at the table for sure she'll get to the apartment sooner.
"We'd better change the pins in the apartment, the numbers are you and I know." Caramel took off her hair pigtails after the room became cold, surely in a moment she will fall asleep so comfortable.
"I've thought about that." Rafka out of the bathroom.
"Continue?"
"We're using the date you first met me."
"When we met at pigeonhole?"
Rafka nodded, "that was something special for me and the beginning for you to start living with me."
Caramel smiled, why choosing an entry password is so romantic. Rafka has developed a lot, not too stiff as before. It seems Caramel is no longer fit to call Rafka a robot. But if you think about it, Caramel has rarely nagged and called Rafka a robot again.
"okay." Caramel nodded, in fact he is not the type who likes to remember important dates but he did not forget the date he first met Rafka. Maybe because Rafka has given a deep impression in Caramel's heart is stiff and annoying. But at the same time Caramel also felt lulled because Rafka left an umbrella for her.
"I'll arrange it." Rafka exits the room while Caramel closes his eyes feeling the chill of the AC and padded his bed in his room. Caramel wants a short break before Arnesh wakes up.
"Nothing in the fridge?" Rafka looked at the refrigerator, there was no foodstuff he could cook because they had indeed left the apartment for a long time.
Rafka stepped out to buy some easy-to-make groceries for their lunch preparation. Believe it or not after Caramel gave birth, Rafka returned to the way she used to be: she did not like instant noodles. Now Rafka feels calmer because actually every time he eats noodles, he feels guilty to his own body for giving unhealthy food.
"You still here?" Rafka stops reprimanding Joni who is walking in the opposite direction to her. Really Joni is not shameless because he still lives in this apartment even though the case of Rama has spread throughout the apartment, in this case Joni also gets the impact because Rama worked with him to supervise Caramel.
Joni stood stiffly staring at Rafka fearfully, "i have no other place to live." Nervous answer.
Joni and Anna can stay here because of Rama's help. Who can refuse to live in a luxury apartment for free, when Rama tells Joni that the condition to stay in the apartment was only to watch Caramel then he immediately agreed. Moreover, they are a newly married couple, living together has been their dream from the beginning. Joni does not know that watching Caramel leads to a case of sexual harassment by Rama.
"After this you will not be able to sleep quietly." Rafka said coldly as he passed from there, took the elevator and lost from the sight of Joni who was still surprised because he suddenly met Rafka there.
If Rafka says so then it is not just nonsense, he must make anyone who has messed with Caramel feel the coldness of the iron bars floor.

The sound of a baby crying woke Caramel from her slumber, she immediately jumped down from the bed running staggered into the next room. Caramel's consciousness had yet to fully recover but as soon as she heard Arnesh's cry she immediately panicked, the voice forced her back to the real world.
"Looks like he wants to drink milk." Rafka saw Caramel who had just entered Arnesh's room, he had tried to calm the baby by petting him but Arnesh still cried. The thing a man cannot do when his child cries is suckle him.
"here." With half-sleeping Caramel taking over Arnesh to feed her, she sits in a nursing chair located not far from Arnesh's bed. "I slept for a long time?"
"Lumayan." Rafka sat down near Caramel.
"Why are you wearing an apron?" Caramel was surprised to see Rafka wearing an apron, "don't tell me you're cooking."
Rafka nodded, "luckily I was done cooking when Arnesh woke up."
"I'm sorry, I should have cooked."
"I'm just making simple food."
"Thank you when you're tired too, you should rest." Caramel smiled faintly, how she was not always grateful to have a husband as good as Rafka.
"Before it gets cold, I'll bring the food here." Rafka went to the dining room.
Rafka took a big portion for himself and Caramel. It makes curries out of carrots and potatoes and also chicken katsu which is easy to make. Rafka uses instant curry seasoning for fear of failing to make it himself, he just has to add cut potatoes and carrots to the seasoning.
"Double the calories." Caramel was happy to see Rafka carrying a large plate of rice, chicken katsu and carrots and potatoes cooked in thick sauce. "Like curry huh?"
"It's curry, I hope it tastes good." Rafka pulled the seat closer to Caramel who was still breastfeeding.
"Can you cook curry?" Caramel doesn't believe Rafka can make curries that include elaborate cuisine.
"I use instant seasoning." Rafka feeds a spoonful of rice, chicken katsu and curry seasoning to Caramel.
"Don't you think it's delicious." Caramel is not too clear, instant spices do save people who are not good at cooking but still want to eat well. "You eat too dong."
Caramel rubbed Arnesh's hair that had been bushy since birth, the tiny baby was still not finished breastfeeding. Arnesh can suckle for up to 1 hour until Caramel feels really tired. But at the same time Caramel was also grateful because his ASI was smooth so he did not need to give additional formula for Arnesh. Plus a very comfortable nursing chair for Caramel, let alone Rafka who feeds him.
