The Imperfect Eve

Dead Lights

"This meal, in this palace? Waw, this is amazing." Cansu began to open a voice between the silence of the air. His eyes stared in amazement at what was in front of him. After reading the do'a he began to put the first spoon in his mouth. His eyes blinked enjoying the delicacy that began to melt in his mouth.

"This food is really delicious." Cansu gave his comments even though he knew his comments would not have any effect, it was now that Madame Begum looked at him with a sharp gaze. Unlike the two daughters sitting beside Cansu, they smiled at Cansu's adorable behavior at the dinner table. Honestly, this was the first time for the two princesses Madame Begum to witness the hubbub at the dinner table.

"Do you know madam? Since morning I miss someone so much, thanks to dinner this time my sense of longing paid off. Thank you." Thank you." Cansu's great-grandson bluntly, she really misses her mother.

"There was no conversation at the dinner table, my family and I never did that. Have you been talking a lot all this time?" Madame Begum, who was about to put the first spoon in her mouth to undo her intention to eat, put the spoon full of food on her plate. His eyes were full of intimidation.

"Continue your dinner!" Madame Begum said as she stood up.

"Will the lady not have dinner?" Cansu asked in a soft voice, he also stood up.

"I'm gone." Lady Begum replied briefly, after which she left the living room. Walk to the reading room near the stairs.

What a strange family! I only spoke a little, the madam even lost her appetite. Isn't it natural for some people to talk at dinner tables? After all I was just flattering the food, what's wrong with that? Lord, give me the patience to face this family for the next few months. Cansu muttered in his heart while staring at the food in front of him, he also started to lose his appetite. But this has never happened before.

Cansu's first dinner at Lefrand's residence ended with hunger, he returned to his room regardless of the delicious menu in front of him.

Crutches.Kruk.Kruk.

"Why are you bothering me? We are not enemies, we are a package. So don't sing anymore, okay!" Cansu tried to calm herself down, a second later she lay back down.

Crutches.Kruk.Kruk.

"Aistt. Why are you beeping again." Cansu complained in a soft voice.

"All right, let's eat."

"It looks like chocolate in the middle of the night will be enough for you." Cansu chirped as he walked towards the door and exited his room. This time he walked to the kitchen, if you want to compare, the Lefrad mansion is three times larger than the Cansu house in Bandung, Bandung, that's why he took five minutes to reach the spacious kitchen of Madame Begum, a kitchen that he certainly never entered because his servants were lined up in every corner of his magnificent mansion.

"Well, amazing." Cansu looked amazed by the contents of the refrigerator he opened, full of food.

"Where's chocolate? Ahh, yes. Here it is." Chirp Cansu with a smile. He opened the chocolate and bit it.

"Innallillah." Cansu was surprised, his entire lamp suddenly went out. Not wanting to linger, he immediately left the kitchen and headed back to his room, without realizing he was passing by someone in the living room.
