Love In The Throne
Stirring Emotions

Alvin throws his suit in any direction. His body was slammed on the sofa. Today Alvin chose to go home sooner. His head was too tired to endure his annoyance and anger. This day he had scolded his subordinates who made mistakes. Even for a small mistake Alvin did not hesitate to snap at him.

While closing his eyes, he massaged slowly the tip of the base of his nose. Oma Ana's last words that came out before leaving the lunch table were ringing again in her head. And the words made his head feel heavy and tired. How could her Oma ask herself to impregnate Nanda and have a child of a woman she does not love at all. His oma must have devised a plan that was deliberately kept secret. If there is no secret plan, where Oma may make a child as the main requirement of a business.

Alvin felt his throat start to dry. His body was dragged to the kitchen to get a glass and cold water in the refrigerator. The rapidity of the glass full of cold water had managed to smoothly cross his throat. In view of the luxury watch, the time has shown at five in the afternoon. It means Nanda will be home soon. Alvin was funny because he remembered Nanda. Unknowingly, Alvin squinted a wry knot smile from the corner of his lips. A smile to laugh at himself for getting into his Oma game.

The initial intention of accepting Oma Ana's offer to marry Nanda is as a form of filial piety to parents. But it seems Alvin is currently in a dead end. Where there is no sweet choice for him, because later he will be difficult to immediately end his fake marriage in accordance with the deadline agreed with Nanda the wife of his status.

Clik....

The sound of the door opening. Alvin's eyes popped toward the source of the sound. Sure enough, Nanda appeared from behind the door. Nanda closed the door again and immediately walked towards her room. Nanda doesn't know Alvin's home yet. His tired body wanted to be immediately refreshed, cleaned and laid down on his bed which was very comfortable. As her hand was about to touch the doorknob of the room, Nanda gasped in shock at the typical cold voice and sounded quite loud like one who was intimidating someone.

"Where have you been?" Nanda was flabbergasted and immediately looked for the source of the sound coming from. Alvin placed the glass standing stiffly beside the dining table while staring intently hatefully at Nanda.

"Mas Alvin, are you home?"

"What time is it, huh?" Nanda scratched the back of his neck that was not itchy. There's something different about Alvin today. Alvin doesn't usually care when he comes home. Even whatever Nanda did, Alvin also never cared about it let alone to question it as it is today.

"Nearly six. What's wrong?" said Nanda with a calm face while looking at the watch in hand.

"Take the habit of going home before I get there first. Understand You!!!" nanda's mouth gaped in disbelief at Alvin's words just now. Sounds very strange. Yups, because Alvin's never been like this before. Alvin never even cared when Nanda would come home. Even for dinner that Nanda prepared every day Alvin rarely touch. Since Celine's presence in Jakarta, Alvin began rarely to eat dinner at home.

Nanda was still speechless. Just the look of shock and awkwardness that Nanda showed. Nanda's face like that made Alvin more upset and emotional.

"Well, why are you standing there? Cook hunt!! I was already hungry "Nanda's daydream instantly broke when Alvin's loud tone blared in the air. Alvin seemed to deliberately vent his frustration also to Nanda. The woman who had made her life turn into chaos. A home life she never imagined. Even a fleeting thought never.

"Ah, i-iya" Nanda went straight into the room to put down the bag and wash her hands and feet. Nanda didn't go to the shower. After cleaning his hands and feet and changing into casual clothes, Nanda continued to rush to the kitchen to prepare food. Nanda was worried that if he took a bath, Alvin would be angry again for waiting a long time. Dirty as well. So later finished cooking, go to the bath is clean and not dirty anymore because of the sweat aroma of cooking.

About an hour later Nanda finally managed to complete the cooking activities. Rice, vegetables and side dishes have Nanda neat order on the dining table. Nanda rushed to take a shower. Shortly after, Alvin climbed down the stairs to the dining table. The food that Nanda had served. Simple cuisine but has a decent taste can spoil the tongue. Although Alvin never praised the taste of Nanda cuisine, but secretly Alvin began to like Nanda cuisine. Even Alvin feels there is less when Nanda is reluctant to cook food for him.

Alvin's stomach is hungry. The loud snapping of cooking orders was indeed on the basis of his stomach being completely hungry. Without having to wait for Nanda to come, Alvin immediately devoured Nanda's food until the toilet.

Nanda came out of the room already clean after taking a shower. The sweet fragrance of flowers and vanilla seduced Alvin's sense of smell and instantly set his sights on Nanda who was walking towards the dining table. The more days Nanda looks sweet. Especially tonight. Her semi-wet unraveling hair in a marron-red tee shirt and knee-length short toen trousers made Nanda look relaxed yet pleasing to look at.

"Sorry I'm late. I took a shower first. Alvin's done eating?" said Nanda leisurely while pulling up the chair taking a sitting position in front of Alvin.

"Hmmm.." replied Alvin as he sipped a glass of mineral water to finish his meal. Alvin wiped his lips with a tissue and looked at Nanda with a sharp look. Nanda who just took a spoon of rice suddenly stopped because she felt uncomfortable with the sharp gaze from Alvin's eyes. He slowly stared at Alvin's stiff face and began to look creepy.

"You why Mas? How do you look at me like that?"

"I want to make one thing clear to you"

"Me-affirming? Meanin??" Nanda was completely confused and did not understand the meaning of Alvin's words just now. All this time he never harassed or interfere with the problems of Alvin's life. But why was Alvin so angry tonight?

"Listen to my good words, Nanda. And I hope you always remember and understand your position very clearly" This time it was Nanda's turn to look Alvin in the eye without blinking. Nanda began to look forward to the continuation of Alvin's next remarks. Nanda increasingly does not understand the puzzle that Alvin is throwing.

"You're just my status wife. Don't ever wish I would touch you. Understand !!" alvin's sharp speech suddenly ignited Nanda's emotions to rise. Nanda's self-esteem seems to have been torn apart by Alvin who has been blatantly demeaning himself. What Alvin threw out really hurt his ears and especially his heart. Don't expect Alvin to touch it. Dreaming though, Nanda is unwilling to surrender herself willingly to an arrogant and annoying man like Alvin.

Nanda slammed the plate in his hand onto the table which made a rather loud bang. Nanda's originally calm face instantly turned dark. Emotions have seamed throughout the body to the top of the crown of his head.

"Help you hear also dear Mr. Alvin. L'm... I understand and understand who I am and how I am at the moment. And I never even thought to ask you to touch me. Because I am not willing to touch you either. This marriage is a marriage of mutualism. A mutually beneficial marriage. So you don't have to worry about that. You understand!" Alvin kept trying to calm down to respond to the emotional self of Nanda who began to increase. His elegant style is still clearly visible. His calm and arrogant attitude remained awake and his attitude was increasingly making Nanda's face became furious.

A cynical and reproachful smile on Alvin's lips. His gaze seemed to be mocking the statement Nanda had spoken.

"It's good that you know yourself" said Alvin casually, getting out of the dining chair and immediately took his bomber jacket that he hooked on the sofa. Alvin took the car keys and intended to leave again that night.

Nanda himself was still upset. Alvin continued his steps towards the door. But suddenly his steps stopped and Alvib turned his face back towards Nanda who was still sitting speechless with an annoyed face at the dinner table.

"Tonight I didn't come home. Do not forget to lock the door" finished saying his sentence, Alvin continued his steps out the door to the car and rushed away from home.
