"Good night, honey," he said then left the room after closing it tightly. Devan decided to sleep in his study instead. Because he was not sure of himself if he was in the same room with that woman.

Until three o'clock in the morning, Devan could only close his eyes.

***

The ringing of the alarm became the sound in the morning, along with a small movement that came from under the covers on the king-size bed.

A typical wake-up groan was heard, pulling the blanket up, Anna blinked her eyes to adjust the light entering her retina. Looking around, a faint frown appeared on her forehead.

Immediately she got up from her position when she knew where she was now, after looking around, a sigh of relief sounded after she confirmed that in the room there was only herself.

Anna then got off the bed and headed for the bathroom. It's been a few days since Anna hasn't washed her hair, fortunately, there is Devan's shampoo in there, even though it's for men but she doesn't care and just puts it on.

After finishing with her business, Anna looked for the paper bag that Devan gave her yesterday. If she remembered correctly, there were still a few pieces of clothing inside for her not only women's clothes but also underwear was there, and they fit her size.

Her face suddenly heated up and a blush filled her cheeks. Even the man took care of these little things for her.

"Don't falter Anna, don't falter. He already has a fiancé," she muttered as she dried her hair with a towel.

Glancing at the clock on the nightstand, it was already eight in the morning.

Anna decided to have a look below, in case there was Mr. Hendra. She had to visit Naila today, she couldn't bear to leave Dave for a long time, moreover, she also missed her son.

"Good morning," a man's voice suddenly knocked on her ears and made Anna who had just come down the stairs startled. Looking for the source of the sound, it turns out that Devan is in the kitchen.

His appearance was immaculate, it seemed that the man had woken up earlier than her.

"Why didn't you wake me up?" Anna asked walking towards the kitchen.

"So what?"

"I can help you make breakfast," Anna replied.

"And ended like last night?"

Anna who was already very close to the kitchen entrance suddenly stopped her steps, she immediately turned and walked towards the dining table, sitting there. How could she forget about last night?

Seeing the woman's behavior, Devan chuckled, "Why stay away? don't you want to help me?"

"I don't want to be your breakfast," Anna replied making Devan laugh lightly.

"You didn't go to work?" asked Anna changing the subject.

"This is Sunday."

"Really? Oh my gosh, even I forgot to remember the day."

"Did you sleep well?" he asked.

Anna nodded, "Erm, and thank you," she said then.

"For?"

"For taking me to your room without waking me up."

Devan only responded with a nod, he wondered if Anna would still thank him when he found out what he had done to her last night?

There was silence for a moment, then Anna spoke again. "Devan," she called, her hands resting on her chin.

"Hmm?" Devan replied, glancing at the woman briefly.

"I want to go home," said Anna.

"Please, I will not forbid you."

"But I don't know..."

"Tonight I'll take you home," said Devan cut the woman's sentence.

"Or not at all," he added again immediately silencing Anna who seemed to want to protest.

Hearing the man's words, Anna took a shaky breath. If that was the only way left, maybe she should accept it.

"Okay, it's up to you," she replied as she laid her head on the dining table.

Devan who saw the woman just smiled. No one knows, after struggling with his thoughts all night long, Devan finally made a decision. He doesn't want to force his will or hold himself back anymore, in other words, he will follow the path where time will take their relationship. He realized that he would only torture himself if he harbored feelings for Anna.

Even though their relationship is very unclear, Devan still wants to continue. After all, according to his observations, it seems like Anna's husband doesn't care about the woman, let's say that this time his evil side appears. For a moment the man forgot that he would soon be married.

Until a few moments passed, Devan had finished setting the food on the table.

Both Anna and Devan, the two then had breakfast together. Now and then the man added food to Anna's plate.

The two were mostly silent, Anna only occasionally spoke when the man asked her.

She didn't want to protest anymore, for fear that the man next to her might suddenly kiss her again.

After breakfast, Anna wanted to clear the dining table but Devan held her hand.

"You don't have to do things like this," Devan said and carried Anna, walking to the living room. The woman's cheeks turned red like a boiled crab.

"You stay here, relax," he said again after Anna's body landed gently on the sofa.

"Do whatever you want, as long as you don't go to the kitchen," he added then turned around.

"Where are you going?" asked Anna immediately.

"Let me take care of it," replied Devan.

"I'll help you," Anna immediately got up from her seat.

"Then I won't be dropping you off this afternoon."

"Do not, okay fine, I'll stay here and not go anywhere," replied Anna then threw her body on the sofa, heaving a rough breath. For some reason every time she wanted to protest, Devan always replied right at her weak point making her completely unable to refute.

"Good."

"Ah yes, what do you want to drink?" asked Devan again.

"I'm not thirsty."

"Tsk, I offer.."

"OK, Alright. WHATEVER YOU LIKE, MAKE WHAT YOU LIKE. I DRINK IT," Anna interrupted immediately as if she already knew what the man was going to say next.

Hearing Anna's response, Devan chuckled then returned to the kitchen.

Left alone, Anna was confused and didn't know what else to do. She then grabbed the TV remote and went back to searching for her favorite channel.historical

Until several tens of minutes had passed, Devan returned to the living room with a glass of avocado juice in one hand, while the other held snacks.

"This is for you, eat it," said Devan placing the glass and plate in his hand on the table right in front of Anna.

Seeing that, Anna frowned.

"For me?"

Devan nodded.

"Where is yours?" asked Anna again.

Devan shook his head, "I only made it for you."

Anna sighed deeply, "I just finished breakfast.. I'm still full," she replied.
