The Pawned Wife
Chapter 41 > SALTING

"Oxie!"

Brugh!

Audrey fell out of bed. His forehead kissed the floor to make Audrey wake up and grimace in pain while holding her eel. Audrey quickly got up and looked at the clock on the nightstand.

"Astagfirullah, I haven't prayed shabuh." Audrey reflexes panting running to the bathroom to take ablution water because the clock has shown at 05.10 minutes.

Right, Audrey woke up late because of her long dream. If only he hadn't fallen down maybe he would have slept and somehow would have woken up at what time. Not long after, Audrey came out of the bathroom and immediately performed the shajah prayer.

He held a cool and wore a mukena. After that he said the intention of praying shabuh and performing the prayer he rakaat solemnly. Movement after movement Audrey did it slowly and solemnly as possible. A few minutes later, Audrey finished her two-parrakaat prayer.

After slipping the do'a, he also moved from his seat while releasing the mucus attached to his body. Audrey also folded up her face and placed it in the closet. Then Audrey walked to the dresser to tidy up her messy hair.

At the moment when both of his hands were busy tying his hair, he suddenly heard the sound of his apartment bell. Audrey quickly walked out of the room and saw a screen attached to the wall across from the living room. It is clearly visible that a man is standing in front of his unit in neat clothes while carrying a plastic bag.

The man was none other than Akandra. The man who will ask for it after the iddah period is over. At first glance, Audrey is seen smiling knots when she finds out that the figure who came to her apartment was the man she loved.

Without waiting any longer, Audrey opened the door. Knowing that the door had been opened, Akandra immediately entered. Followed by Audrey from behind. Surely before following the man who had just entered, he closed the door first.

"Son't come this early? Did you have breakfast?" ask Audrey.

"I miss you, Audrey. That's why I came to see you and brought you breakfast" Akandra replied as she placed her plastic bag on the table.

"Geez, why bother, brother? Though I intend to make you breakfast," Audrey timidly said.

"I don't feel bothered at all. I want us to have breakfast together. Come on," take Akandra while snatching back the breakfast he bought and bring him to the dinner table.

"Yes, Brother." Audrey followed Akandra, who had gone to the dining table first.

"Here sit." Akandra pulls out a chair for Audrey.

Audrey just smiled shyly treated like this. Then he sat down on the chair Akandra had prepared. Meanwhile, Akandra sat down next to Audrey.

"What's this guy buying?" audrey asked as she looked at the plastic bag.

"It's porridge, honey. You don't mind, do we have breakfast?" Akandra looked at Audrey with a face of anxious expectation.

"Yes, Brother. It's okay, though," replied Audrey with her cheeks blushing like a boiled crab.

"Thank God then. Now you eat yeah, I'll bribe you." Akandra took a portion of the chicken porridge and scooped the porridge.

"Dissapulated?" Audrey furrowed both her brows.

"Yes, bribed. I want to bribe you," Akandra replied with a smile full of charm.

Gleuk!

Instantly Audrey was immediately stunned while looking fixedly at the man who was full of charm. To be honest right now he is embarrassed if he has to be bribed by the man he loves lately. If it's true that he was bribed by Akandra, it means that this is the first time he can feel a mouthful from a man's hand.

"Come, open your mouth. Aaa," Akandra said as she directed the first feed into Audrey's tiny mouth.

Inevitably, Audrey opened her mouth even though she felt very embarrassed. One mouthful made it into Audrey's mouth and it made her smile happily. Then she took a tissue and wiped Audrey's slightly smitten lips.

"Here drink first, slow down when you eat. After all, I will not finish this meal of yours. Eat it quietly, my lady." Akandra stroked Audrey's head tenderly.

Audrey was silent. Both of his eyes were wide open as his head was being stroked by the man before him. So, he forgot to drink the water Akandra had given him.

"The water is safe, I don't mix it with poison" Akandra said, chuckling.

Hearing that, Audrey regained her senses and immediately drank it down. After that, he put the glass back. Now his face is more blushing because he has been embarrassed by Akandra so early.

Audrey was completely wrong. To hide all that, he turned his face and looked in any direction. That's when he can freely neutralize the pounding of his heart which is currently beating very fast.

"Audrey, this is eating the porridge again. Aaaf ...." Akandra returns to feed Audrey.

"Why don't you eat?" ask Audrey.

"Seeing you eat alone makes me full." Akandra smiled.

"Well, why did you buy this much porridge for whom? Don't tell me that I'm the one who has to finish all this porridge." guess Audrey with her eyes perfectly fiddled.

Hearing that Akandra immediately laughed. "If you can spend it, spend it." Akandra laughs.

"Ish, this brother!" Audrey pinched Akandra's arm slowly in annoyance.

"Right, I had to spend all this time." Audrey folded both hands on the chest while pursing her lips.

"I'm just kidding, my dear. After all, which woman could afford to spend this much porridge," Akandra laughed loosely as she held onto her stomach.

"Well, you know. Then why did Brother buy this much porridge? Isn't this redundant if you don't eat it?"

"Calm down, I understand that. This porridge I purposely bought for your three bodyguards are soon to come."

"I'm not your son, brother. I'm not your prisoner either. Why hire a bodyguard anyway?" Audrey scrunched her eyebrows together. He did not understand Akandra's way of thinking.

"But you are my future wife! I don't want you to do anything, everything I do is just to protect you. Forget it, now say ... how about your sleep last night?" ask Akandra by switching the conversation.

"Thank you, but I'm dreaming-"

"What dream? Did you have a nightmare last night?" guess Akandra.

Audrey shook her head quickly. "I dreamt of meeting Alessa," Audrey replied with a sharp look in her eyes.

"Overcome?"

The two Akandra beads turned extremely sharp. His face became even more serious.

Akandra's heart felt like it was going to come out as soon as she heard about Audrey's dream.
