Alana POVs
I woke up from my sleep when the sunlight hit my face, I glanced towards the window that was not covered with curtains, Gosh I forgot yesterday did not close the curtain.
As I was going down the bed, the hoarse voice behind me sounded "What time?" Dareel closed his eyes. "Nine" I said briefly and walked towards the bathroom.
Damn, it hurts my womanhood, dareel. I washed my face and brushed my teeth, I stared at my reflection through the mirror in front of me.
Red marks around my neck and chest, I slowly rubbed the red mark. "Alana, this has gone too far," my inner self.
Suddenly I remembered what dareel said 'If we are ready from any point of view and we are able to commit we can get married'. Why does that always come to my mind.
Be married? Is it at my age that twenty-five years is it worth getting married? But isn't getting married not about how old we are, but about how mature we are in dealing with a household?
I washed my face again, but I was afraid that if my marriage would break then my son would have the same fate as me and they would feel what I felt.
It's not that I don't believe in Dareel, even I trust him so much that he's a great guy, he'll definitely be a good and responsible father and husband.
But. I don't know, it's just that I'm too scared to start. But if like this continues, am I not like a cheap woman who is sleeping without having a clear status? Damn

I spent almost an hour in the bathroom, daydreaming and thinking about things. Now I sit in front of the mirror, drying my hair.
I stared at the dareel from the awakened mirror and put on his boxer. "Again, alana," said dareel kissing my cheek. "it's even noon," answered me still busy drying my hair.
"Ah yes, tumben yes I slept a long time." Dareel took the hair dryer out of my hand and started to help me dry my hair.
"Kok diem? Why, al?" Dareel asked because I just looked down, "Is it because it was yesterday? Sorry-" I immediately stood up and faced the dareel.
"Let's eat outside, I'm laper." Dareel was shocked and opened his eyes. "What?" Dareel asked quietly, "Bath school, I wait in front." I kissed dauel's lips and ran away.
I don't want to hear about the topic last night, it really embarrassed me. I sat at the dinner table playing with my phone.
Less than an hour of Dareel approached me, "come on," said dareel holding my hand. "Al, why do you look so beautiful every day?" dareel winked at me.
"What the hell, crocodile," I replied, "Come on alligator," replied the dareel and moved his hand around my shoulder. "Why do I fall in love with you every day?" ask dareel again.
I put my shoulder around, "There's no other reason, just to say. I grateful to have met a woman as great and beautiful as this." Dareel kissed my forehead.
"Dareel, I'm ashamed to see auntie tuh," I pushed down on the chest. "Hallo aunty," cried Dareel waving at the aunt who was arranging the plants.
"It's hard to talk to crocodiles" I said glancing at the rareel who was still whiny beside me. "This crocodile found its handler, so it's safe." Dareel kissed my cheek.
"Dareel, stop, what the hell." I kept my face away from Dareel. "You smell so good, I love it." Dareel kissed me all over my face again, I ran and entered the car before my face looked redder, my God.

"This is the restaurant you used to tell me about, right?" Dareel asked as we entered the restaurant which was indeed my and mother's favorite place to eat.
I nodded in response. "Do you remember?" I said to sit in the chair which is also where my mother and I used to sit first, near the window.
"I remember everything you said very well, whatever you like and all your memories are the same mother, I know very well" said Dareel smiling and rubbing my hair.
"Iisssh, don't start." I removed Dareel's hand from my head, which was met with an irritating smile. "It's hard for you to be romantic" Dareel nudged my forehead.
"Ah yes... I'm the one who chose the food menu, I want to tell you the mainstay of this restaurant." My words to Dareel who was still smiling were staring at me, very vague.
Dareel agreed. "I want this pesen, some kind of burger, but it's a chocolate sauce called a bof sandwich. Then-you-ah this is all, you like the ones who are healthy like that." My words show Dareel pictures of food.
"Okay, those-the sandwiches too?" Ask Dareel. "Yes sandwiches, but kayak more to topping a variety of processed sea fish that," I explained and Dareel only mangosteen, actually he understood or not.
Uh, the days before that I also ate food like this. However, now that I eat it with Dareel, it will taste even more delicious. Jeez Alana, why are you like a girl who is kasmaran, my inner being.
All right, I'll explain a little bit about some of the dishes we ordered. First, this bof sandwich that I mean like a burger with beef bread but in the chocolate sauce that is given a salmon chop.
...
...
Then, the sandwich I ordered for the dareel was called a smorebrod. There is a slice of bread under it, then on top of it is given lettuce and beef and other vegetables. Smorebrod is one of the typical foods of Denmark that is very liked by the mother.
...
...
And yes, we also ordered a dessert that is very favored by odense residents, including me as well. Risalamande, rice pudding with rice main ingredients processed with a mixture of almod, vanilla, sugar and caramel cream.
And what makes this rice pudding even more delicious is the flush of cherry sauce, very suitable to be eaten in the morning like this.
...
...
"Not bad," said Dareel looking at me and started eating the dish. I smiled at the dareel greedily eating this typical Danish cuisine.
After we finished all the dishes, all I thought about was going home. But Dareel asked to take a boat during the day.
"Come, Al. You're full, so don't want to move." Dareel walked ahead of me after coming out of the restaurant. "Sonest one says I don't want movement" I replied, not to lose.
"Judah if that's it let's go up," Dareel pulled my hand slowly. "Dareel uh," really, I want to sleep now. True also said Dareel I satiety. "Come on, I'm carrying," Dareel walked over to me who was walking very slowly. "No way, I walk alone" I said, walking a little quickly away from Dareel.
*
I rolled my eyes all the way up this boat, it was also very fun to ride a boat during the day like this. Usually me and my mother ride at night, but during the day the colorful scenery typical odense city looks more stunning.
...
...
"Merin... ." Call Dareel beside me, I turned my head. Cekreek.. Dareel took a picture of me, wait.I just realized that Dareel brought a camera.
Several times I smiled and posed when Dareel took my picture. We also took pictures together, a lot of photos that we took. I remember what Mother said at that time.
One day you will come here with a special person who loves you very much and take a boat here, said the mother at that time. And here we both are, me and Dareel. Is the person in question special is Dareel?.
I looked at the dareel who was now smiling and rubbing my hands. Hopefully, I hope that our relationship improves, I smile back at the dareel and put my head on his shoulders enjoying this very pleasant atmosphere.
Ethan POVs
"Yes... ." Answer someone from inside this minimalist-style greenhouse. "Sir Ethan" said the aunt after opening the door for me.
"Siang bi, how are you two? Ah yes, let me in." Ask me when aunt won't offer me to go inside.
"Ah yes sir, please. Ta-but... before I apologize, how did mister ethan know that non alana is here?" Aunt looked at me confused.
"We've been friends for five years now, I know where Alana's been calming her mind. Not too late to pick up alana?" I said to aunt.
