The Young Guardians of the Heart

Chapter 50. About Taste

“It is fitting that I feel all the contents inside the refrigerator in this house so move to the dining table all!” sewot Nadia gave her a look of horror.

Ferdi looks a little misbehaved because his actions are very deliberate and he promises to replace by taking the girl shopping to the supermarket.

“Ehh, hehehe later we can shop again to fill your refrigerator with groceries yes! Don't frown dong, ntar mas promise deh, want to ask me what if you smile again,” bargain Ferdi while pulling one of the chairs for the pujaan heart.

“Yuk we eat now, my stomach is actually very hungry because it was deliberately missed lunch because of meeting and also pick you up to school,” Ferdi's story while also pulling one of the seats for himself is right in front of Nadia.

“Who also asked to be invited, where sok-sok an use event ngegendong all over again! Very afraid I was assessed by a more cute guy at school,” said Nadia origin but it was reality.

“If I say you're afraid of being taken by another guy it's true! I will not have any Jaim-jaim and will admit whatever is in my mind!” sahut relaxed, “Oh yes, you want to eat which one was?” he continued to offer a menu that is quite widely available on the table of his own handiwork.

Nadia just smiled then deliberately grabbed the plate in front of Ferdi, which was, fill it with a piece of rice and take one by one vegetables and side dishes that the man has cooked and put it into the plate of the man he now calls Mas Ferdi.

“Thank you, darling,” said Ferdi with a fluffy smile.

‘Yes Allah begs You, make Nadia as an encouragement for my life that will be the clothes of my life in the future and unite us for eternity although maybe the destiny that I ask is very excessive because it wants to have a girl who is too far different age with the servant,’ his inner self in the heart while gazing for so long at the innocent innocent face of the sweet girl in front of him.

“I who should say thanks to Mas Ferdi because I have bothered masakin I menu this much and it looks like everything looks delicious. I incip ya?” sahut Nadia unequivocally praised the cuisine of the adult man sitting right in front of her.

The girl began to grab the plate and fill it as she had done for Ferdi's plate, sat back down and began to eat the hand-made dishes of her uncle's friend after reading the basmalah.

The dining room sounds silent just the sound of a dish contest that meets a fork and also a tablespoon. Once the two look at each other without saying a word until finally Ferdi said something that made Nadia painstakingly swallow the food that was already in her mouth.

“Mmmhh, it feels very good, I will be fat if Mas Ferdi often masakin, hehehe. I like the cuisine that Mas make, delicious and make addictive,” said to be honest.

“Alhamdulillah if you like. Oh yes, Nadia, do you want to answer honestly my question about something?” Ferdi stared into the face of the woman sitting in front of him.

“Of course you can, if indeed Mas Ferdi's question makes sense and I can answer. Why answer someone's question if we ourselves give lies because lies will only make us have a new disease of anxiety! That's what Mother said to me once, because I was given a message it is better to be hated by people for honesty than by someone for a lie that one day when it is exposed then the affection will change with hate!” The girl put the food back in her mouth.

“I'm sorry if I was forcing you to be honest because your answer will determine my future because my word Renaldo papa will accelerate my engagement with Firda. If you do object then I will never force you!” Ferdi paused his line staring into the eyes of the two girls sitting before him, trying to dive in and also understand whether the girl was really created for him.

“Means?” Nadia felt her heartbeat suddenly felt so tight waiting for the sentence that Ferdi would throw next.

“Nadia, I love you and love you too, but until now I don't know, how do you feel about me?” Ferdi asked without diverting his attentions in the slightest from Nadia's face.

Nadia is confused to answer what because she is still worried about her own feelings. Moreover, the girl has not performed Istikharah prayer for instructions. However, it seems that he should be able to make a decision now even though his age really does not feel enough to accept a man in his life.

“I don't know but if Mas asks if I feel comfortable and safe around you then Mas Ferdi's answer is the one who always thinks inside my head for the first time whenever there is a problem. I also felt worried when Mas Ferdi had promised but suddenly it was too late to confirm. Does that mean you're in love?” Nadia did not immediately answer whether she loved Ferdi or not but instead said what she felt towards the man.

“Can't I hold your hand? Later you will find out whether we do have the same feelings or not then you will know.” Politely, Ferdi asked the girl for permission just to find out whether Nadia had any feelings for him or not.

Nadia nodded her head, making Ferdi immediately stand up and move to sit right next to the girl. The man grabbed Nadia's hands, sticking the tiny girl's palms to her cheeks for a few seconds. The man deliberately closed his eyes as if he was permeating what was channeled into his body through the palm of Nadia's hand which was now stuck on his cheek.

“Now, how do you feel about me?” The look of Ferdi's eyes seemed to plunge into Nadia's heart. Did the girl feel in love?
