Grabbing Dreams
Chapter 47 SPLIT UP FOR A MOMENT

Throughout the afternoon, Kanaya tidied up the groceries she had bought at the supermarket. He arranges groceries in a storage cabinet while Reino occasionally notices his wife's activities from behind the screen of his laptop. The man was enjoying a bowl of fruited instant noodles plus a half-cooked cow's eye egg while checking emails from his business partners.

"Where are the noodles good?" kanaya asked as she crossed the dining table. She saw that the contents of her husband's bowl were just her broth.

"Yes, honey, this is delicious. Next time plus the cab slices." proposed Reino give advice.

This is the first time Reino has eaten the food of his wife. Kanaya cooks her favorite soto-flavored instant noodles with the addition of other ingredients such as beef-eye eggs, cayenne pepper slices, mustard and fried onions. With ravenous Reino eat it while continuing to peek at the laptop.

"Later the tongue mas will get used to the spicy taste. If in the village, the average person likes to eat spicy mas. It is like mas, even though there is no fish, just with rice and sambel already delicious to eat."

Reino smiled as he recalled his first dinner at Kanaya's house. A warm dinner with his wife's little family. It is not a matter of the cuisine menu served on the dining table but the familiarity between family members that makes Reino's heart touched.

"When do we go back home again, baby?"

Kanaya who was taking drinking water for Reino also turned her head.

"Really, mas?"

"Of course, honey. At least once a month we go." Reino said as he put his noodle bowl into the sink.

"Let me do the laundry, and continue to do the work." between Kanaya told Reino to go back to work.

However, when Kanaya washes the bowl, Reino hugs her from behind, sticking her chin spoiled on the wife's shoulder.

"Darling, are you staying at your boarding house tonight?"

Kanaya finished washing the bowl then immediately dried her hands with a small towel near the sink.

"Yes, mas. Yesterday I told Rita that today I went back to Jakarta" Kanaya replied as she turned to face her husband. Poking hands at Reino's neck in a friendly manner.

Reino gave a glimpse of Kanaya's lips.

"How do I want to?"

"Mas here first. In three or four days I'll be back here. Can ya?"

"All right, sweetheart. But you have to tell Rita quickly about our marriage, right? I don't want to be separated from you for long."

"Iihh.so much manja, mas."

Reino hugged Kanaya's body. His wife's back was softly stroked.

"Manja is the same wife, dear." whispered in Kanaya's ear.

"Udah ah, my. Let's finish the job first. I want to continue to enter the groceries." Kanaya pushes her husband's body away, forcing Reino to quickly finish her office work while she gets back to struggling with the groceries she bought earlier.

...***...

At 8pm Kanaya gets ready to stay at her boarding house. He put in a suitcase containing souvenirs for friends and boarding mothers.

"Darling, can't it be delayed tomorrow? Tonight's a test run, baby." Reino's sulky.

"Mas, I've been on leave too long, later you can be suspicious. Was it patient?" pinta Kanaya put on her sweet face.

Reino inching up from the bed, helping his wife close the suitcase full of souvenirs.

"Don't you take it long, baby? Three days!" reino gave an ultimatum.

Kanaya exclaimed happily.

"Siaaaap, boss." he replied humorously making Reino not hesitate to kiss him immediately.

"Give me a substitute kiss now for my loneliness for the next three days."

"Iih mas Reino there-there is, anyway. Yeah, it's here." Kanaya prepares to give a kiss on the cheek to her husband but it turns out that the man managed to pull her body quickly.

"Yes..."

"I'm sorry, sweetie anyway. Hehe."

Kanaya tidied up her slightly messy clothes as a result of her husband's actions.

"Come, mas, leave now." take Kanaya before things get out of hand.

"Siaaap, madam!"

Midnight at the boarding place..

Rita and Kanaya sit together on a bed. Time shows at half eleven o'clock in the evening. Both can't sleep. Since Kanaya came home, some boarding friends gathered in their room to just hang out to share stories and souvenirs. There are some special food and cakes from Kanaya's hometown. All the residents of the boarding house get all the souvenirs from him. That's how Kanaya, known to always be friendly and generous to her friends.

Rita and Kanaya's room starts to quiet down. One by one their friends had returned to their respective rooms to rest.

"Nay, how's your dad doing?" ask Rita.

"Alhamdulillah, Rit. He has recovered. His condition improved after the surgery."

"Thankful that's it. Oh yeah, you're coming to work tomorrow?"

"He em's. I'm past my time off, Rit. My pay will be cut next month. Hicks."

"Yes be patient. You're late at home."

Kanaya smiled grimacingly. It felt like he couldn't help but tell her about what had happened to him while in the village to Rita.

If I'm ready, I'll tell you, Rit. Sorry yeah.

"Let's go to sleep, Rit. Let's not have bad luck tomorrow."

Before going to bed, Kanaya sees her phone. Rows of incoming messages and calls filled his lot. Of course, all from the husband.
