Appetite (Hide of the Idest Wife)
4
Vann and Zionna finally came to a cafe that looked luxurious and classic. They came there according to Selena's recommendation, sister-in-law.
“Cafe looks very good,” praise Zionna look around him while hand in hand with friendly with Vann.
“Hmm, sister-in-law has good taste,” nods Vann chimed. He had been constantly nervous because Zionna embraced him affectionately upon arrival there.
“Vann!” selena approached the two.
“Sister-in-law is also here??” vann asked looking at the table in the corner filled with social friends.
“Ah, coincidentally my friend invited us to also gather here today,” he replied lying. Though he deliberately came there to bring his friends to boast if he was already part of the Bowie Group family.
Vann just nodded slowly.
“Come, greet my friends, they are very curious about your wife, yesterday I could not invite them to your wedding because your wedding is very closed,” she whispered to Vann.
Vann turned to Zionna, who had always admired the interior of the cafe.
“Baby, sister-in-law wants us to say hello to her friends, no problem right?” Vann asked softly.
“Of course” nods Zionna agrees.
“Wah, even your affectionate calls make me envious, I don't know if my sister-in-law is so romantic.” praise Selena blushed.
They immediately approached Selena's friends.
“Friends, meet this Vann my sister-in-law and this is Zionna his wife, those newlyweds I told you about earlier.” Selena introduces her sister to her friends.
They seemed to greet Zionna and Vann very kindly.
“Omg ! What his wife is an artist, he even looks unreal”
“Wah, they are very compatible”
“Wah, his wife is beautiful once”
“The clothes of his wife that there is only 1 in this country, I can't believe he has it”
“I heard him from abroad, the sole heir of Bowie Group”
“Lucky once Vann get treasure like”
“Truly lucky man”
After greeting Selena's friends, the two decided to sit apart from them. While sitting there, they were constantly hearing comments from the bunch of useless people. Zionna just kept quiet as he sounded irritated sighs a few times. Likewise with Vann, he is an introverted figure who feels very confused to start a chat with his wife who looks a little upset because of the actions of his sister-in-law.
“Sorry if sister-in-law and her friends make you uncomfortable” muttered Vann sungkan.
“Nothing” geleng Zionna fast.
“Do you want to go somewhere else?” asked Vann to vent.
“I think it's a good idea,” nod Zionna quickly.
Vann chuckled at Zionna's no-nonsense remarks.
“Alright, let's go, I want to take you somewhere”

As it turns out, Vann takes Zionna to his favorite library.
“I often spend my time off here.” Vann guides Zionna's steps down the aisle of the bookcase.
Zionna looked at all the types of books that were there without flinching.
Drrtt…
Zionna's phone vibrated inside his sling bag, he immediately checked his phone.
“Babe, I received the phone first ya” Zionna said half a whisper.
Vann nodded quickly, Zionna seemed to immediately run small away from Vann. Vann grabbed an origin book. His mind was focused only on Zionna. He saw Zionna in the distance. Zionna again looked upset. In fact he seemed to grin cynically several times during his phone talk. Vann tried to take his eyes off Zionna. He tried to be indifferent. He put down the book he was holding and replaced it with another book. He just flipped through each book without reading it, his mind was only on Zionna. Vann recalled his vision last night, this situation reminded him. He then steals a look at Zionna, but Zionna is no longer there. Zionna is no longer visible.
Vann immediately put down his book. He immediately followed Zionna with a feeling of worry. He looked around but did not meet Zionna. Even he ran out of the building to find Zionna, but never seen, even he looked for it in the place where they parked the car earlier.
Drrttt…
Vann's phone is vibrating. Vann found an unknown number calling him. He immediately received the call.
“Halo..”
“This is me...” exclaim Zionna from across.
“Sorry, I go first.. I'm fine.. sorry I left you just like that. My dad suddenly called and asked me to meet him now,” obviously Zionna sounded unhappy.
“Is everything okay? Do I need to catch up with you?”
“Ah, no need... all is fine”
“Alright, then let me know if you need anything,”ujar Vann again.
“Hmm... sorry I left you on our date day,” muttered Zionna regretfully.
“It's okay, don't worry, we can go dating again another time”
“Well then, see you later tonight”
“Hmm... See you, be careful on the road,” said Vann softly.
He almost went to the police if he didn't find Zionna or get word from him. She panicked when Zionna disappeared. He immediately saved Zionna's mobile number. He realized that he did not even have his wife's mobile number. Vann decided to wait until nightfall at the library, as he had no other plans or goals.

Zionna dropped his body on the couch in his father's study. His father looked annoyed when he had just seen him arrive in a messy outfit. Zionna opened his black vest that looked torn on the right side of his arm. It only leaves a plain shirt********* that is peach colored.
“Please dispose of this,” Zionna said casually thrusting the vest at her father's assistant. His father's assistant immediately came out leaving the two inside there.
Though the stelan that Zionna is wearing is a new stelan. The clothing is a special edition clothing that is only sold 1 set in the country K. However, it meant nothing to Zionna.
“Where have you been? Where's the kid??” ask Zionna's father ketus.
“I've taken care of something.. I left your dream daughter-in-law in the library,” Zionna replied casually.
“Can't you hold yourself for a minute?” grunt Jack cynical.
“Didn't we have a deal? I'll do it my way, so.. don't complain anything” Zionna said coldly.
“Shit !! This kid really sucks, just be careful if you make trouble,” scold Jack grumbling.
“Is he really so innocent like that?” muttered Zionna leaned her head against the back of the sofa she was sitting on.
“She is indeed very innocent and stupid like her mother.Different to her two brothers who are very greedy and cunning, both of them are exactly like their father” added Jack chugging his wine.
“Dan... Vann is also exactly like your wife,” timpal Zionna quipped the porch closed both eyes that felt sleepy.
“Shut up! Don't comment anything about my wife.. She's your mother anyway!” exclaim Jack firmly.
“My mom died 10 years ago.. Stop talking about it,” timpal Zionna with your eyes closed.
Jack just grumbled stifled. “Basic son of a bitch! It sucks,” umpat Jack is very slow.
“I heard it,” timpal Zionna down.
Jack gritted his teeth. She could never win against her only daughter, because Zionna was so smart and stubborn.
“When will he come??” ask Jack then.
“I've already sent him a message to come at 7... He'll definitely be here any minute,” muttered Zionna raucous.
Tokk…
Zionna gestured by pointing towards Jack's workspace door. “She must have arrived,” muttered Zionna immediately got up.
Assistant Jack opened the door from the outside slowly.
“Master Vann has arrived, Miss.”
Zionna threw a smile of victory at his father.
“Cih...” Jack smirked cynically.
Zionna immediately came out to approach Vann who was already in the dining room with his stepmother.
“You have arrived..” greet Zionna smiling sweetly.
“Hmm...” said Vann nodded slowly. He then handed a large tote bag to Zionna's stepmother. “Sorry, Mom... I just gave this gift to you, hopefully Father and Mother-in-Law like this gift,” said Vann mild-mannered.
“Thank you very much, you don't have to bother like this,” timpal Maria hooted.
“You don't get too stiff, we are now your parents,” Jack said.
Vann just nodded awkwardly.
