'Visiting old friends 1'

At least with Lea sleeping in Hallin's room, I was able to sleep quietly. It would be naive if I thought so. Because at night the door to my room was opened. More precisely in the middle of the night. I was sleeping in a relaxed and calm sleep, suddenly waking up because someone jumped up and sat on my stomach.

Who else if not Lea.

"Hm.. What's wrong?"

He usually wants something. Like cravings or something. "Raj! I want some fried rice! I want the red one! Wake Raj! Make me red fried rice!"

"Yes-yes, I'm up."

My beautiful wife was pleased with the answer. He kissed my cheek with joy. And it was not once, he peeped my cheek many times because he was happy. Well, not just on the cheeks, on the forehead, the lips or the tip of the nose as well. The point is that he's dyed my whole face.

"Okay-okay stop tasting me, I'll start cooking."

"Okay, but carry me to the dining table in the kitchen." He said with a spoiled tone.

I also started holding my Queen. I peek at the clock that is mounted on the wall. Three o'clock in the morning. Haaa... Because as I recall the people in this house did not like spicy food too much, I only made a portion for Lea alone. Making a cup of coffee for me, of course.

I thought I could cook quietly without making a sound. Who would have thought cooking in the early hours of the day was so noisy. At that time I had just finished the extra red fried rice chili and sauce. Well, not red anyway. Maybe a little pink.

I was pouring water into a coffee cup. Rini's mother and Rini's father had come and walked over to the side of the kitchen. I think they might be afraid a thief might enter his house. "I'm sorry, Lea craves red fried rice. I can't refuse a craving person, can I?"

"Yes, it's okay... Hoam... It is important for pregnant women to have their cravings fulfilled." Said Rini's Mother.

When I give you a fried rice plate. Lea immediately ate it. "Ep... Should I make a new one for you? Or do you want some tea?"

Rini's Father's face paled. While Rini's mother just shook her head slowly. With a subtle smile, he said. "No need... You guys enjoy your alone time."

"Yes! We-we're going back to sleep. Good night, Nak Rein and Alya." Rini's father said in a panicked tone. Then he took his wife to the bedroom to sleep. Hehe... How not to panic when the Demon King offers to make you a drink or a meal.

"Hows it? What did you get from talking to Hallin?" I asked while sipping my warm coffee. The smell of coffee is the most pleasant.

"much. I got all your friends info! The average person is married. Yet Yesie did not, she still developed her career as a Biology Teacher. He also became a very famous writer during this time. Besides, I also showed Hallin the address of our home in the human world. It's okay, isn't it?"

"Well, I think it's okay. He can come whenever he wants. I'll talk to the butler. However we rarely receive a Human guest." My neighbor again.

Lea just nodded her head with full cheeks. His cheeks were round because he was chewing fried rice. It reminds me of Ratna's little friend. Ratna's got a female Squirrel's stealth friend. His mouth was always full of beans. I think Lea now looks like her.

"Rein wants to?" Ask.

I'm shaking. He offered me his food when all that was left was the last spoonful of his food. "No, I'm not hungry. Eat it."

There was a smile on his face as he swallowed his food.

.....

Cold sweat dripped down my forehead even though the car AC was cold enough. "My beautiful wife, my good Queen, is it true that you'll be fine after smoking that? You are pregnant. There's a warning in the cigarette box. Pregnant women are not allowed."

"It's human stuff, right? We're demons, my fetus won't be that weak. Unless I'm going to kill my son." Leah spoke with hatred.

"Don't do that..." I said with a somewhat worried tone. Maybe boredom started to bother Lea when we didn't get to Radit's house. Yes, we're on our way to that place.

Lea only smiled suspiciously when she saw my answer. He rubbed my arm for a moment. Then say. "No, this is our first child."

I let out a sigh of relief. We arrived in front of Radit's house. Perhaps because he was an only child, his house was the same as his old house. Maybe just change colors. Radit is married and he works as a lecturer at a university in the city. According to Hallin, on weekends Radit is always on leave to accompany his son and wife.

I don't know what Lea's thinking. It seems he was very excited to meet Radit. Outside the gate, he squeezed the bell of the fence many times. A little girl opened the front door. She has eyes similar to Radit's and a funny face that I think is similar to her mother's. Her body was tiny maybe she was three or four years old. When he saw me, he ran back into the house.

Shortly after, Radit came out with his wife who was holding the little girl. "Ep... Alya huh?"

"Yes! It´s me! I'm here to visit Radit! Oh yes, this is my husband Reindra Ambarawa." Lea said as she hugged my arm.

"Radrite." Radit and I shook hands for a moment. Just like Anwar and Arvid, Radit looked at me with strange eyes.

"Then let's go in Mas, Mba." Said Radit's wife.

Although years have passed, Radit has never changed. He still wears his myopic glasses. Her face still looks as sweet as it used to be. Maybe just be a little handsome in a certain part. But now he has grown up.

We entered his yard. His wife, whose name was Mayang, opened the entrance. Me and Lea sat in the living room chair. "May, make me coffee and two teas."

After giving their child away, Mayang nodded and left. I wonder, why do people know I love coffee? Now that I'm not Rini. "Do you like Mr. Rein's Coffee?"

"I happen to like it." My word.

"Thank God if so. Forgive me, your name and your aura resemble my old friend. I miss him." Radit's face looked a little sad at the time.

"Papa. don't be sad..." Radit's son hugged Radit.

"You don't get too drowned in grief, Radit. Receive a good boy, even if it's cold he's a good boy. So he must have been happy in nature there." Lea said while entertaining Radit.

My left eye twitched as they spoke softly about me as Rini. "I still can't forget Boss. Mr. Rein is very similar to Boss, I'm not sure which parts are similar, but you guys are very similar. It makes me remember back to that time."

His eyes are glazed. He must have missed me so much. "That time? When's? Let's story!"

"Lea, Radit's too sad to tell a story." I whispered.

Lea squeezed my hair. "Aaa, I want to hear a story. Rein tell Radit the story! The baby wants to hear the story!"

I said while grimacing in pain. "I'm sorry, my wife is pregnant. The mood is a little fickle. If Radit doesn't want a story, that's okay."

"Let's... Evil rein! I want to hear a story! The baby wants to hear the story!" Lea squeezed my hair again.

Mayang came shortly. Although hidden I can see his surprised expression. "Mas, maybe you should just tell me... Who knows miss Mas let go if telling stories. Besides pity Mas Rein."

I saw that Radit had looked at me for a long time. "Alright, Alya, I'll tell you."

"Yay!" Lea took her grip off my hair. Then start waiting for Radit to tell a story.

Radit. I gave him my thumb. "Thanks Bro."

It was just a slow whimper. I feel his mood going up. He is no longer sad. I put my head on the guest chair. To eliminate the feeling of pain due to hair that is squeezed Lea. "Rein's drinking his coffee. Alya too."

Radit served us coffee and tea, and then started telling stories. "As always, on Boss's birthday, we always come to celebrate together. I came with Yuda as usual. Boss is a hero in my heart, I always liked it when I was with him. I brought you the latest poem from Boss' favorite poet as a gift."

I sipped coffee slowly to enjoy the taste. Several times I caught Radit telling stories while looking at me occasionally. I don't know what he saw, which is for sure I just wanted to sip coffee.

"Yuda also brought a gift, I don't know what it contained, he brought two boxes. One for Hallin he said. We came with joy, but were greeted with sad news. There was a white flag fluttering in front of their house back then. We discourage giving gifts because it's a day of grief. I'm so scared that the dead are Boss. He was always bragging about his life that wouldn't get past twenty-one. We came to serve as friends. That day we came in crowds. There's me, Yuda, Ardian, Lesti, Bayu, Rangga and Linda. We all came, but the dead bodies we saw were shedding our tears. It was the worst day for all of us. In the hearts of all of us, Boss is a best friend. I remember the last time I saw Boss at a food festival. I'm so sad every time I remember that day..." Radit's eyes glazed over, he took off his glasses and wiped his tears before falling.

"Reid... Huhuhuhoo..." Lea jumped into my arms. I happen to have finished my coffee. And the glass is on the table.

I patted his back. Leah cried long enough to fall asleep. I wiped her dry tears. "Did Jesie come in that day?"

"Eh?" Radith asked.

"Ah, I'm sorry. Lea asked while crying, but maybe the sentence was a little hard to understand." I'm looking for an excuse.

Radit put his glasses back on. "I'm not sure. Because I don't see it anywhere."

"Then we say to Radit. Sorry if my wife and I made it hard on you." I said goodbye words.

Radit just gave a smile. I lifted Lea's body with a bridal sling. He fell asleep so fast that when we left he was still sleepy. "We're saying goodbye." I waved my hand before leaving.

Radit waved his hand back with a relieved smile on his face.
