Well, that's about the harmonious state between the three of them. Let's give an applaus for Zen who can finally cook without having to experience chaos such as charred, salty, or other chaos.

“Umm, so how are we both going to sleep?” leo asked doubtfully as he looked at the mattress that only fit two people.
“Well, because your adoption plan is in such a hurry, I did not have time to buy the necessary equipment,” Zen said as he turned his gaze to another direction other than looking into the eyes of the two children.
“So I've decided that you two will sleep on the bed and I will sleep on the living room sofa. Maybe tomorrow I will go to buy the equipment needed for the two of you,” Zen explained.
‘Yeah, actually not because of that anyway, I'm just too lazy to spend money for something that will not be used later.’ Inner Zen.
“Of course it can't be like that Brother! How can you sleep on the sofa when you are the owner of the house?” leo exclaimed with dissatisfaction.
“It's true! What if I sleep on the couch? Besides my body is small, I think I can sleep comfortably there,” Lin said.
“No Lin, even if your body is small still you will suffer from muscle pain tomorrow morning,” Zen said and strictly forbid it.
“Let me then! We've been very enough to trouble big brother, at least let me lighten up a little bit of brother's burden. Isn't brother too tired to take care of our adoption and even take us to the hospital for treatment,” said Leo in a slow tone at the end of the sentence.
“At least I want my brother to sleep well tonight because of tiredness all day,” continued Leo.
‘Hahaha, how can I sleep well with all the things that will happen tomorrow?’ inner Zen while laughing incessantly in his heart.
“Don't you yourself see if the bed is enough for the two of you? If I sleep in a bed, it won't fit two people. Besides I don't feel tired at all, plus there are still things I have to do,” Zen said.
“But-“
“Yak! Stop that rebuttal. I slept on the couch for one day. Don't overestimate it all,” said Zen who was responded with a slow grunt by Leo and a whip by Lin's lips.
“You two sleep in bed and I will sleep on the front sofa,” Zen said with the final decision.
“But kak-“
“I don't accept rebuttal. Besides the sofa in front is quite soft as a bed and sleeping there will not make my body ache,” explained Zen.
“But I don't think the sofa is soft enough to be screwed by you, sis,” argued Leo.
“Then I can add a pillow to make it soft right?”
“But what if brother gets cold?” reply Lin who still did not accept.
“I can wear a thick blanket later,” Zen replied indifferently.
“But-“
“Hahh, stop your objection, didn't I just say for today?” zen asked as he looked at the silenced Leo and Lin.
“So go for a toothbrush and wash your feet before getting into bed,” Zen said as he sat on the Mattress and stared at them intently.
Leo and Lin who were stared at as sharply as that could only walk towards the bathroom weakly and do their activities quickly. Zen who saw them obeying his words smiled happily and waited quietly on the bed.
“Already?” asked Zen and closed the notebook in his hand.
“Already,” answer them along with lethargy.
“Go to bed and go to bed soon. It's already 9 p.m., it's not good for kids to sleep over at 8 p.m.,” explains Zen while helping them to get ready for bed.
“Sister, is this okay?” asked Lin while gripping the blanket on his body tightly.
“Of course, I've prepared my pillow and thick blanket to sleep in front. It's only a day, Lin,” explained Zen while stroking his hair slowly.
“Kakak, you are too good,” murmured Lin who is still heard by Zen and Leo.
Leo who heard it nodded in agreement as he looked at Zen with a gaze of complaint.
“Can't sister be a little selfish?” leo asked with slightly sleepy eyes.
“Haha, as long as you know, I'm very selfish. You're the only ones who don't know me well,” Zen replied in truth.
‘Didn't bringing those two to my advantage in the future include selfish?’ inner Zen while looking at Lin who had closed his eyes and Leo who was still aware even with eyes that blinked slowly.
“You lied, sis,” muttered Leo and laughed softly by Zen.
“Sleep and I will turn off the lights for you,” said Zen replied with a mutter week by Leo.
After making sure the two children were asleep, he turned off the lights and picked up the notebook he had read and walked out.
Do not forget the door of his room that is closed as slowly as possible so as not to wake the two children.
I exhaled slowly and then I sat myself on the living room couch with pillows and blankets accompanying me. Oh, don't forget my notebook I brought in the guest room.
“Ck, how can I beat Max in a way that is not too strange?” murmured Zen while reopening the notebook containing several tactics to defeat Max.
“The game is tomorrow afternoon and I still can't find a suitable tactic to deal with it,” he said slowly and again wrote down some tactics that crossed my brain.
“Max is an aggressive type of fighter, but does not cover up if his self-protection technique is also very strong. It will be very difficult to attack him while defending well.”
“Added Max's venomous tongue that could have carried me away with emotions while fighting him,” muttered Zen while examining Max's fighting ability.
“How many times I think still, fighting Max is a stupid act! I'm lucky because this is an ordinary match practice, it can be predicted if I won't be too battered in his hands.”
"Maybe I can only win from him at least 3 times out of 10 matches with my current condition,” said softly while opening his arms slowly.
“Huftt .. plus I can't bring out all my abilities so as not to make Max feel suspicious about my sudden change,” said Zen tiredly as he leaned his body on the sofa.
“After seeing all these tactics I can only choose this way that suits my condition,” said while wrapping up one of the tactics he wrote in the notebook.
“Huhh ... Why do I have to deal with such a troublesome thing? But calm yourself Zen, this is all for the sake of your sleep continuity for 8 hours a day!” zen said with a sudden burning spirit.
Rise up from his seat and walk towards the kitchen with the torn paper containing his tactics and burn it with the stove fire.
”At least with this I will successfully bring Max to my side.” Zen said as he watched the paper slowly burn.
“Jaa, should I satisfy my drowsiness and go to sleep now before facing tomorrow and the chaos it brings?” murmured Zen while staring dazedly at the sofa of his living room.
‘Either why do I feel that tomorrow will be a sickening day?’ zen Inner with full question marks.
“Already, it is better to sleep and meet the dream lady immediately than to think about the problems that have always been thought of in my brain. Good night to myself,” murmured Zen then closed his eyes and fell asleep.
...----------------...
//An alarm ringing……
Slowly, Zen got up from his seat and quickly took a light stretch of his stiff body.
“Well, at least it's not as bad as I thought,” said Zen then took his phone to look at the clock.
“Jam 05.34, I had to hurry to get ready and do the morning run,” he said then got up from his seat and walked towards his room.
Slowly open the door and start to step inside.
“Thank God they are soundly asleep, I don't have to worry about those who are uncomfortable falling asleep in different places,” muttered Zen then rushed his foot towards the bathroom to brush his teeth and wash his face.
Reflecting in front of the mirror with clothes that have changed into a white hoodie and black training pants.
“Seeing however, I am still handsome!” said Zen with narcissism and took his cellphone and savings card.
“I had to stop by the minimarket first to buy some instant food, water and some supplies needed to survive, he said,” murmured Zen and walked out quietly while closing the door slowly so that the two little children did not wake up from their sleep.
“Yosh, let's start running slowly and do a light warm-up to face Max later,” he said and step his foot out of the house.
...----------------...
“Huftttt .. no matter how many times I do it I still can't,” murmured Zen with gasping breath after doing his morning run.
“I did all this just for the sake of my body in order to hold its weight, but anyway if I did not have enough strength and strength, still this would be a waste, anyway,” he said slowly while lowering his head down.
‘You how else? I'm weak, right?’ inner Zen while smiling mishmash.
“Stop that and better I immediately shop for the need to survive in the future,” said Zen while looking at the minimarket in front of him.
‘And I hope there are no distractions back like the incident a few days ago,’ Inner Zen while stepping towards the minimarket.
...----------------...
“Have I bought everything I need?” murmured Zen while checking the items in his basket one by one.
“It looks like it's all, should I spend the remaining money?” he continued while taking into account the remaining money.
“It seems better to add dry biscuits for the two children,” said Zen then took back some biscuits that he thought were delicious.
“Total 728 thousand!” exclaim the cashier after finishing counting all Zen groceries.
“This is the money.”
“Good and here's your change sir, please come back at a later time,” said the cashier with a friendly smile that replied a friendly smile back by Zen.
“Seeing the cashier I was so thinking with Eva's sister, did she take my advice or not?” murmured Zen wondered as he stepped his foot towards his small apartment.
“I'm home..” Zen said as he opened the door.
“Ah, sister back,” reply Leo from kitchen direction.
“Hm? What are you doing in the kitchen, Leo?” zen asked as he walked towards the kitchen.
“Ahh, I just cooked some instant noodles to eat,” Leo said awkwardly.
“It's okay isn't?” ask Leo carefully.
“I have no problem, what I fear is that something happened to you while using the kitchen, plus I was not at home earlier,” Zen replied while looking at Leo who made Leo bow his head.
“I'm sorry, I just want to help you a little, brother. Besides, I'm used to cooking noodles,” said Leo.
“I know, but don't cover up the fact if you're a kid in my eyes. I'm just afraid of things happening that don't cool down, you understand?” reply Zen while stroking his head slowly.
“I understand,” replied Leo while nodding slowly.
“Where's Lin?” asked Zen while taking over Leo's cooking activities earlier.
“He was in the room and taking a shower, it's possible he'll be here soon sis,” Leo replied which made Zen nod his head.
“Sister! I'm tidy,” said Lin as he ran towards Leo.
“Don't run around like that, Lin.” Firm up Zen while moving the bowl of ripe noodles on the table.
“Kak Zen's! When is sister back?” asked Lin while hugging Zen's leg.
“Newly and quickly eat the noodles before this noodle expands,” said Zen who was nod by Lin and Leo.
“Sister, is sister going to school today?” leo asked who was nodding by Zen.
“Indeed why are you asking that?” zen asked confusedly.
“Nothing, I just asked.”
“Huh? Do you also have to go to school on Saturday?” asked Lin confusedly.
“Of course,” reply Zen briefly.
“Kukira went to school only until Friday,” reply Lin who got the weirdness of Leo.
“That only applies to Lin's elementary and kindergarten, if you have already stepped on the realm of junior high school and high school, you should enter until Saturday,” is clearly Leo who is influenced by Zen.
“That's right, why are you asking this all of a sudden Lin? Do you want to enter elementary school?” asked Zen who was responded with a hard coil by Lin.
“No! That will make us spend a lot of money!” reply Lin firmly.
“Pftt .. well I won't force it, but if you want it you can talk to me again,” said Zen who was only responded with a nod by Lin.
“When will sister leave?” leo asked as he carried the dirty dishes towards the sink.
“I will leave after the lawyer my brother sent came, around 8 am this morning,” explained Zen.
“Ah, actually there is something I want to say to you guys,” continued Zen who made Leo and Lin's attention diverted to him.
“What do you want to say?” asked Lin carefully.
“I just want to ask you not to leave the house whatever the reason for today,” said Zen seriously.
