Kirana
Chapters 18. First Breakfast Together

On a clear morning, Kirana had woken up and was in the kitchen with Danish. She was cooking something for her son's breakfast.

Although Alex's house was large and grand, the man did not hire servants who stayed at the house. There was only one middle-aged woman who helped Alex, her name was Bik Mirna. He came to clean Alex's house, from the morning at ten to the afternoon. After the work is done, Bik Mirna will return home.

Danish, who had been sitting on the dining table chair, held her hand boredly, looked at Kirana's back who was busy concocting groceries.

"Hufts. Bored." murmured little Danish. But his eyes immediately sparkled when he saw Alex walking down the stairs. Alex's room is upstairs.

"Papa Alex." exclaimed Danish merrily. Kirana's body stiffened immediately hearing that. But he soon gained control, trying to act ordinary.

"Hello, Boy." said Alex with a sincere smile. The man pulled up the chair next to Danish and sat there. His gaze was immediately fixed on Kirana who was arranging dishes filled with food. Alex's smile immediately expands at the sight.

Once the food was ready, Kirana immediately took him to the dining table where Alex and Danish were sitting next to each other. Anyone who saw the two of them would have guessed that they were father and son. Similarities between them, there is no doubt.

"Yeii seafood fried rice." exclaimed Danish pleased.

After giving a plate filled with food for Danish, Kirana also gave it to Alex. However, the menu for the man was different. Not seafood fried rice like Danish and Kirana menus.

For a moment Alex was stunned. But a second later, his lips curled thinly.

Kirana still remembers that I have a history of seafood allergies.

"Thanks." said Alex sincerely.

"Hem." Kirana only muttered briefly, while eating the food in front of her. The atmosphere between the two of them looked awkward. Kirana is more silent, while occasionally chiming in Danish babble.

Alex is busy with his own thoughts. To imagine being able to sit at the same table like this every day was really fun for him.

He always ate at this table alone. Alex's parents were busy people from a long time ago. Even as a child, you can count how many times Alex ate with his family.

Born to be the only child in the Dieter family, made him lonely. Although his life is material, Alex does not feel happiness. Even his marriage with the Princess has been arranged by his family. The reason Alex was so enamored with Kirana was, because of the woman's warm figure that was able to make her comfortable.

Now Alex's parents are overseas. Alex never had a problem with that. Whether or not they exist, for Alex it makes no difference.

Alex looked back at the smiling Danish merrily, chewing his food voraciously. I don't know why his heart warmed to see that scene

After breakfast together is over. Alex immediately called Zidane, to accompany Danish in the special room of play, which he had provided.

While Kirana, back busy cleaning dirty dishes and wash them in the sink.

"You don't have to do that, because soon you're going to be Mrs Dieter" Alex said as she leaned against the fridge, looking at Kirana with a sharp glare.

Kirana sighed and arranged the dishes that were already clean on the shelf, then looked back at Alex.

"You still love me Kirana" Alex said with high confidence. Kirana rolled her eyeballs, then went past Alex.

But his steps had to come to a halt, as Alex held his hand tight.

"What's? I have to work. Then Danish should go to school, too."

"Stop working with Vano." Alex says, which makes Kirana laugh.

"After forcing me to stay here, you will also force me to quit my job? it's funny." Kirana said.

"Listen Kirana. I can meet all your needs, even if you don't work anymore."

Some women might be happy to hear a man say that, but not Kirana. He does not want to depend on others. Especially Alex who is always arrogant by boasting the wealth he has.

"You never change. Always force people to use your money." Kirana sizzled furiously. His pride felt smeared. Since yesterday, he tried to be patient and comply with Alex's request to stay in this house.all because of the request of Danish who already knew that Alex was his biological father.

Alex fell silent. In fact he had absolutely no intention of demeaning Kirana, let alone offending the woman. His love for Kirana made him so worried. Alex just doesn't want Kirana back with Vano, as their relationship is close to marriage, if only Alex doesn't get in the way of telling Vano's mother Kirana's status.

"Ma-.." Alex's speech stopped.

"What?"

"I just don't want you to be close to Vano." Alex continued.

"That's it." Kirana released the apron from her body. Then walk past Alex, to the playroom, to take Danish to school.

"Kiran wait. Okay you can go. Let me take you."

Kirana stopped stepping and let out a long sigh. "All right." she thought, no problem being ushered in by Alex. Than not allowed to go at all.

There are important things Kirana should do right now. Prayer wants to see Vano and tell the man everything.

After several days of ignoring her message, Kirana felt very guilty

Last night Kirana was busy thinking, about what steps she should take. And finally, he decided something. Today is the determination.

Kirana can only hope, hopefully the decision she makes is the best for everyone.
