The Beautiful Nanny of the CEO's Princess

23. Ken Dating (2)

After a conversation with Andin, Ken and Joan say goodbye.

“Rest, we go first,” said Ken.

Joan came forward and hugged Andin.

“Din, sorry Jhon, yes. I'll try to advise her,” Joan said softly.

“Why are you sorry? It's not your fault, and about Jhon you don't have to interfere. I don't want you guys to even fight with him,” said Andin smiling.

“You've always been so calm about facing Jhon. If I were you, I wouldn't put up with Jhon. We go first,” Joan said then walked away with Ken.

Andin sees Ken's car driving away from Ken's yard. Andin sat on the porch. He looked at the clear night sky, illuminated by the full light. The wind blew against Andin's body. It was cold, like his heart tonight, which was so cold, empty, indecisive and sad that he could not describe. He just wanted to give up this time. It's hard to hang on with someone as selfish as Jhon.

Ken pulled his car over next to the angkringan fried rice stall. He opened the door for Joan, then extended his hand leading Joan down.

“Thank you, darling,” Joan said. They went inside the tent and ordered two servings of level two spicy fried rice. Joan and Ken do not like foods that are too spicy, especially Joan who has acid reflux disease.

“Good to enjoy,” said the fried rice merchant while putting two dishes of fried rice in their order.

“Goodbye,” said Joan smiling.

“Jo.”

“Hem,” Joan replied while chewing.

“Thank you.”

“For?”

“Your understanding, now you become more understanding. I became more in love,” said Ken.

“I just don't want to continue being as selfish as Jhon. I realized, all this time I was too selfish, jealous, and made you tired. Just like Andin now,” said Joan, staring fixed both eyes black manik belonging to the man she loved.

“I love You,” whispered Ken near Joan's ear.

“I love You too,” replied Joan quietly, then both smiled.

Joan finished the fried rice on her plate, but Ken only ate a few mouthfuls.

“Why not eat?” Joan saw Ken's plate still full.

“I've eaten, I don't feel good if I don't eat at home because there's Kak Seren. I rarely eat with Brother Seren.”

“Why not say?” Joan was not feeling well.

“Kan wants to eat with you,” replied Ken while stroking Joan's hair.

“He always relented and was so considerate. I was stupidly unaware a long time ago. From day onwards, I will only trust you Ken,” Joan said in her heart.

“Why stare at my face like that? Is there something on my face?” Ken rubbed his face.

Joan smiled very sweetly. Wanting Ken to pull Joan and kiss her thin lips, but because it was in a public place, Ken held back his intentions.

“Where are we going?” Ken paid for the fried rice and then got back in the car.

“What time is it? Still invite play,” replied Joan literate.

Joan nodded, Ken cheered in excitement. Ken's car drove through the streets of the capital that was still crowded even though the night was getting late. Joan called Rina not to look for her.

“How? Can?” Ken asked after Joan hung up.

“Bby,” says Joan.

Ken parked his car at a night market. Ken and Joan prefer dates out in the open, such as night markets, playgrounds, beaches and more. They don't like to date in malls or nightclubs. They go around hand in hand, looking at various rides of the game. Ken took Joan on a kora-kora, but Joan refused because it was night.

“We buy grilled sausage. Do you want anything else,” Joan said as she pulled Ken's hand. Joan took two jumbo sausages.

“No, I don't want to. You alone,” replied Ken.

After the sausage matures, Joan takes Ken to the car. Joan offers Ken a sausage, but Ken shakes his head.

“I bought two and this is the size of a jumbo, where I probably ate it myself,” grumbled Joan. He bites his sausage and Ken's speech discharges the delicacy of his favorite grilled sausage.

“I'm still full, you spend it alone. Besides the sausage is small, still bigger mine.”

“Uhuukk, uhuukk, Ken!!” Joan choked and shouted, Joan's screams made Ken close his ears while smiling mischievously.

“I mean when I buy grilled sausages elsewhere, the sausages are bigger. Haha, you're thinking something else right," teased Ken.

“Because you didn't say it clearly, and you laughed instead. I'm choking on you.” Joan put her sausage back into the plastic wrap. At the corner of Joan's lips left a tomato sauce mark, Ken pressed his face and licked the former sauce on Joan's lips.

Deg.

Joan's heart seemed to jump out, her body stiffened. His cheeks were red because of Ken.

“Hey, daydream what?” Ken flicked his hand in front of Joan's face.

“No,” replied Joan turning her face to the car window.

Ken smiled and pulled Joan closer and kissed Joan's lips. The thin lips that had filled Ken's mind. They were engaged for a while before Ken drove Joan home.

Jhon came home in a state of chaos, messy hair and a mouth smelling of alcohol.

Tok to tok.

John knocked on the door and at the same time, Ken and Joan had just arrived. They approached Jhon who was standing leaning against the wall.

“Jhon, are you drunk?” Joan immediately knocked on Jhon and Ken knocked on the door even tighter.

Chequek.

Rina opened the door and frowned in wonder at the sight of Jhon.

“Jo, what's wrong with Jhon? Em... smell of alcohol, you guys go to the club?” Lina stared intently at the three of them.

“Ssttt, don't be noisy, Ma. Andin is asleep, hik,” said Jhon while occasionally hiccups. Rina is angry with Jhon's behavior.

“You guys explain what is it?” Rina's tone grew higher.

“Ma, we talk inside,” Joan said.

They also went inside. Joan took Jhon into her room and laid him on the bed. Joan knows for sure that Jhon loves Andin very much. Jhon's selfish and stubborn attitude, has destroyed himself. Joan could only sigh heavily.
