Our Love Story: A Week of Happiness - Day 1 in Jakarta (Part 6)

At the time I woke up the next morning, I was puzzled. I couldn't recollect where I was, what happened last night, everything. I was trying to get up from the bed and was going to get ready to start my ordinary busy day until a familiar voice talked to me in a gentle voice.

"It's OK dear. Sleep some more time. Today you are not required to work. Just rest." 

At first, I was shocked. I wasn't dead, was I? The voice was very nice to hear like an angel's voice. (:P) I widened my eyes and saw him sitting in a chair and was looking at me. I couldn't believe my eyes and my ears but I was still too tired then finally I slept again, peacefully. Wow, it felt good that you could sleep peacefully in the morning without worrying about anything. 

I woke up once again. This time was due to hunger. I didn't know what time it was. As I was now fully awake, I could now see the room perfectly. The room is quite spacious. I was lying in a big bed. He was sitting on a chair, in front of his laptop. There was a big table also there. A big TV, a fridge and a very big wardrobe. I was amazed. Simply. Then I greeted him good morning and felt so shy because I woke up very late. He approached me, sat on the bed and stroke my hair.


Him: "Good morning, dear... How was your sleep?"
Me: "Ehm.. good... yeah...How was yours?"
Him: "Good only. Are you hungry?"
Me: "ehmm... yes..."
Him: "Let's have Lontong in Ambassador Mall. Have you tried Lontong Padang?"
Me: "No. never."
Him: "Great. Go get ready."
Me: "OK"

So, I went to the bathroom to take a bath bringing his towel, of which I smelt so deeply. I didn't know why but I was really addicted with his body smell. The mixture of perfume with his natural body scent was like a drug for me. Made me ecstatic.  I turned the shower on, adjusted the temperature and warm water flowed down to my body. 

I know many people will do some kind of contemplation or recollection during their bathing time. I'm like that also. The water coming from the shower is like filled with pieces of memories. Hitting me hard and leading me to an astonishing yet panicking conclusion: ARE WE NOW LIVING TOGETHER? 

Finished bathing, I peeked outside the bathroom. I was too embarrassed to get out from there but encouraged myself to act as naturally as possible. Then I walked out and now it was his turn to take bath. After he got into the bathroom, I searched for new clothes from my bag and changed them. While waiting for him, I turned on the TV and watched. Nothing interested me. So, I turned it off and went to his laptop and browsed.


Around 15 minutes later, he finished taking bath and we were ready to go to have our brunch (breakfast lunch). It turned out that the mall is very near to his kost house. Only 10 minutes walk. I felt strange in this city. Everybody walks so fast, motorbikes are here and there, so fast and carelessly driven. Hmm...So, this is Jakarta. It's true then what people said that Jakarta is a very busy city. Also, the weather is bit humid and hot. Quite different from Bandung even though Bandung now is not as cool as it used to be.

There we arrived in a food court. I felt like in heaven. A lot of delicious looking food in stalls. OMG, I was drooling but I kept my lady-look in front of him. I wanted to eat many food there but our initial goal was Lontong Padang right? I didn't want him to think I'm a eaty girl in the first day itself so I held every urge to jump into the stall and have all the food (I know, this description is too exaggerating, I'm not that extreme :P)

He ordered the food and we shared a table with some women there. While waiting for the food, I was observing everywhere in that place. Nearby us, there were sitting well-groomed women. Full of make up and very stylish. I was amazed at them because they are very beautiful. At distance, many people in working outfit were there. All looked sophisticated. Well, they might have been a very good job. And I started thinking about myself: Compare to them, I'm nothing. I don't have a job now, I can't do make up, I dress in a modest way because I don't know how to match clothes. STOP IT. My heart warned me. Stop comparing yourself with others. JUST BE HAPPY, it said.

We chatted for some time but I couldn't really hear him because it was so noisy and hectic there. It was lunch time anyway. Finally, our lontong padang arrived. You know what my first impression was? I felt disappointed because the portion was too small for me. I knew right then it would not be enough for me but I'm a girl, I couldn't look and eat more than my boyfriend, right? So I just ate that but suddenly I lost my appetite and my stomach felt uncomfortable. I think it was because all the incidents. I couldn't finish the food and gave to him instead.


After finishing all the food, we went upstairs. He told me to buy some clothes for me because he knew I only brought along with me very few clothes. I told him it was not necessary because I didn't have much money. But he said it was OK. I felt bit uneasy because I wasn't used to being bought things by a guy. But after all, he was going to get married to me right? Then I accepted and started to find some clothes and stuff. We ended up buying many things for us like snacks, food items, bath items, and clothes. Here are one of the clothes I bought :D



With hands full of stuff and hearts full of happiness, we went back to his kost house.  He said he would prepare Nasi Briyani for me for today's dinner. Wow... I couldn't wait to have it :) I never tried Indian food before. I was so excited. But he had to login first and work that afternoon so I just lied in the bed and slept for sometimes.

Once I woke up, I saw him still working in front of his laptop. "Dear, I'm hungry." I said to him pitily hahaha. But he said he hadn't cooked the Nasi Briyani he promised me because he planned to cook it later and for the meantime I could have snacks we bought today. I agreed and got myself a large bag of chips and opened it. I ate them happily and then sat on his lap and disturbed his work. I hugged him and he fed me like a baby. Only the thing is, this baby ate too much chips. hehehe... It was one of the sweetest moment in my life I will never forget. We didn't think about anything. Just ME & HIM HUGGING AND FEEDING EACH OTHER HAPPILY. God... I wish time could freeze there only. Even now I still remember the sweetness, the warmth, all the feelings of that moment. I really miss it. From that day onward, sitting on his lap and being fed by him becomes our new habit. We will eat chips and eat them together but he will never let me eat it by myself, instead he would insist of feeding me. Sweet isn't it? <3

After a bag of chip finished, he started to prepare to cook Nasi Briyani for me. I just watched when he was masterfully doing all the things. But he didn't cook in a stove because it's a kost house so he used a rice cooker. I was fascinated. Then he gave me some loaves of bread while waiting him to cook the dish. He offered me to eat them with garlic and mango pickles. I like garlic pickles but I don't like mango one. It tasted weird. Bread with garlic pickles was good. Now I'm officially drooling. Baby... come home soon and cook for me again XD

*click*

The Nasi Briyani was ready. YAAYYY!!!

He opened the rice cooker and WOW!!! It smelt very good. I was drooling even more. I could not wait to taste and he took a plate of it and he fed me but it was so hot but good. OMG. He laughed and asked me to eat slowly but I kept on demanding more. It was super good. rice with chicken and the rice was so delicious. I didn't know what seasons he put into the rice. I only knew how to eat anyway :P Sometimes, I only wanted the chicken and left the rice for him. Such a selfish girlfriend I am hheehhehee... 

After having full stomach, I felt sleepy. My God.. I was like a pig today. All I did was eating and sleeping but feeling so happy and light. I felt like living somebody else's life because it was too awesome. He told me to sleep earlier also because he wanted to continue his work. Then we greeted good night to each other, prayed God for today and I was off to the dreamland.
