The Cold Household

2. Get Close

Gritting slowly, Zavria opened her eyes and was a little surprised as her eyes collided with her husband's.

There was no sound, both were so comfortable and enjoyed the calmness. Moreover, their sleeping position is so close: hugging each other. I don't know who started it so they were so comfortable in sleeping this time.

“You want to shower first, or me?” alex asked to break the silence. Zavria seemed to blink her eyes a few times.

“Hm, you aja,” replied Zavria. Rise up to sit until the arms of both are released. “Shortly, let me ready first. Want warm or cold water?” bargain Zavria after successfully detached from Alex's embrace.

Alex seemed silent for a moment. Previously, Zavria looked like a cocky girl, which was certainly very difficult to reconcile with the girl. However, it seems that now this opinion of his should be revoked from his thinking. “What's up?”

Zavria looked a little smile. His body, which was originally sitting next to Alex's body, was still lying down, he stood up by getting off the bed. “I want to make peace, that's it, anyway.”

“OK, the warm one,” reply Alex. After getting the reply, Zavria went to the bathroom. Prepare warm water for your husband. Once ready, he called the husband to take a bath, while he prepared clothes that the husband would use later.

“I already have her clothes on, it's on the bed,” tell Zavria while knocking on the door.

“Hm, thanks.” I heard a reply from within. Zavria simply muttered in response to that thank you. After that, the girl went to the kitchen, intending to prepare breakfast while waiting for her husband to take a bath.

It does not take long to prepare food. Zavria went back to the room and saw the husband, who was ready with neat clothes, just put a tie. Zavria came and took the tie and helped pair it.

Alex was silent to see his wife. There was a sense of warmth that he did not understand seeing this change in political marriage that he did not expect. He thought, it would be difficult to get close to each other if they had not known each other before.

“Breakfast first, I have cooked,” said Zavria then switch to take a towel and go to the bathroom to clean yourself.

Alex nodded and went to the dinner table and saw two dishes of fried rice with eggs on top. Seeing it made his stomach sound, signifying that the worms there could not wait to receive their rations.

Zavria finished with an office suit with a sling bag of hers in hand. The girl went to the kitchen and was a little surprised to see Alex still there. He thought Alex had gone to the office earlier.

“I'm waiting for you, we eat together.” As if understanding, Alex explained with a thin smile that looked sincere.

Zavria was silent for a moment looking at that sincere smile despite being thin. Alex is a very cold person, the smile he often shows in front of his collages is just a business smile, a mere pretence. This was the first time Zavria had seen Alex's warm smile, and somehow left her a little stunned.

“You why are so dumb?” alex's question made Zavria realize. The girl took her place right in front of Alex and the two started breakfast this morning.

•

Both of them finished breakfast. Zavria looked ready with his car, while Alex had left a few minutes ago. In the apartment, they hired a housekeeper who only came from the morning around ten. The housekeeper's job is to clean the house and wash clothes.

Not noticeably, Alex's car has arrived at his father's company. Yes, Alex still works in one of the branches of his father's company in Jakarta. He served as CEO of this company.

“Morning, Mr. Alexander,” greet the Receptionist when he saw his boss.

Alex is indifferent and continues on his way. Sharp gaze like eagle eyes, flat and cold face makes anyone who saw him immediately lowered his head.

The elevator door opened, Alex went straight in and hit the number that was his goal: the CEO's room. After arriving, he could see the secretary who was ready in front of his room. The man who shook as Alex's secretary opened the door of greatness by bowing his head in a sign of respect.

“Mr Davies has been waiting for you, Mr Alex!” tell the secretary. Alex nodded and started to enter the room.

His eyes swept over, staring at the entire room looking for someone who had been waiting for him. It can be seen, a grown man was sitting on the sofa not far from the table there. Alex approached, making the father immediately rise when he realized his presence.

“Pa,” greet Alex politely. Take the seat in front of his father, after the grown man had sat before.

Alex nodded. “Let's Al love Zavria.”

After feeling all had been said, the father left Alex who looked pensive.

While Alex, seemed to sigh at the attitude of the father. There were no longing words, no warm words, there was only a calm voice with her flat face. Now, he misses his mother, who always smiles warmly at him.

Alex moved to his desk. Look at the family photos that he specifically attached there. Alex actually has one older brother. Giovanni. Gio's sister was very warm and gentle. The parable: Gio inherits all the traits of his mother, and Alex inherits all the traits of his father. Both have very different natures.

I don't know where his mind is, until Alex thought about putting a picture of his wedding with Zavria. His hand did not feel towards the left hand, precisely to the ring finger, where their wedding ring was located. The ring was wrapped in gold with a faint smile.

Zavria seemed to sigh looking at the figure of the girl in front of him. While the girl in front of him, seemed to be holding back anger.

“Lo who asked me to make my entry into the low department, right?” ask the girl in a loud voice.

Zavria closed her ears for a moment. His eyes were bored. For now, he wanted to take a little break from the useless scolding of the girl in front of him.

“My answer!” snapped the girl by storming Zavria's desk.

“Kalo yes, trus lo want what?” challenge Zavria not to lose. “Lo is not pantes here, even so OB was not pantes!” reply Zavria spicy.

Raisya looked furious. His hands were clenched at his sides. “Awas aja lo, if I really work with low rank!” threatening the real Raisya did not affect Zavria at all.

Raisya left arrogantly leaving Zavria who seemed to be kneeling his temple slowly.

Drrta! Drrta!

Before long, his phone shook, a sign of an incoming call. It turned out to be the husband's number. His hand took out and pressed the green screen.

“Halo!” sapa Zavria started the conversation.

[Papa asks us to come to the house later malem]

“OK, later meet in the apartment, we go together,” said Zavria.

[Okay]

“Hm.”

And for a few minutes, the call continued without anyone talking again. Both of them were too awkward to start a familiar chat.

“Udah, that's it, right?” ask Zavria to make sure. After all, time is as valuable as money.

[Beautiful dress up tonight .. and her work spirit! That's it, I'll hang up now]

Zavria smiled sweetly at Alex's words. “Hm.” And then the call was ended by Alex.
