Capítulo 16: Vol 1 : New Home ⭐

After finishing breakfast, the clerk came to the apartment to pick up Denis's belongings to put in the car, not many were brought, so only rented a small transport car.

What's fun about all of this for Faye is seeing the two grown men say goodbye to each other while hugging.

Yes.

Who else if not Denis and Henry? They live their words so much that they hug like that even though it's just a move.

Dramatic, for Faye's assessment. However, she did not want to disturb those who were expressing their feelings for each other as close friends, only standing behind Denis watching everything.

"Take care of yourself, Denis," said Henry.

"I should have said that, take care of yourself, Henry," said Denis.

They laughed loudly afterward.

Denis turned around to see Faye, who was already grinning at him, his cheeks flushed knowing all his actions with Henry, "I told you to wait in the car."

"And miss the golden moment of two handsome men crying at each other? No way~" Faye teased.

Denis's cheeks became redder, before turning to tease, "You said I'm handsome, honey~?"

Unfortunately, it doesn't work for Faye, "I'm just telling the truth, you two are handsome," she repeated, "still want to talk to Henry~? I'll be waiting for you faithfully~" Watching them is really exciting.

"No," Denis refused quickly, "the show is over. Now let's go."

Faye nodded and got into the taxi that was ordered beforehand.

Denis shakes hands with Henry again before going inside.

"Aww ... so cute~" Faye teased again.

"You're cuter, honey~" Denis teased back trying to turn things around.

Faye just rolled her eyes.

***

They were up to a little over an hour stuck in traffic. The transfer officers began removing Denis's belongings.

Faye ordered them to place it in a strategic place on the wall of the television room so as not to get through while Denis himself opened the cardboard and arranged it in her house according to her orders as well.

Denis looks amazed by Faye's house and even more amazed when he finds out that the woman lives alone, the maid on duty is not allowed to stay here.

Faye does this because she likes peace after a long day of work, doesn't like people at home, so asks to do work in the early morning, so when she comes home, the maid is gone. But now Faye must throw away that hope because Denis lives with her, knows what she is like, always tries to sleep with her which is funny, she obeys. She didn't bother thinking it was still the effect of loneliness.

Faye remembers having one more room dedicated to her friend or her parents staying overnight. Better to ask Denis to sleep there.

After the clerk finished lifting, Denis came out to give a little money in return as a token of thanks, then returned to the house to resume his work. Denis opened the brown cardboard containing his clothes.

"Take that and come with me," said Faye.

Denis complied, following Faye from behind.

Faye opened the door to the guest-only bedroom next to her room, inviting Denis to come in first, "This is your room."

Denis glanced around, realizing that this room is too plain for an occupied room, there is no makeup table, cute pillows, and even the wall paint tends to be cream-colored, "Is this your room?"

"Of course not, Denis," said Faye lightly, "this is a guest room, now you can use it."

Denis looked down in disappointment, "We're not in one room? What's the fun of getting married if you still sleep alone, honey~?"

"We're contractually married," Faye is reminded of Denis's mind that began to think erotically, "this is also part of the conditions."

Denis didn't answer starting to take out his clothes and put into an empty wardrobe no one occupied. He came out again to get another cardboard containing books, comics, and some toy figures.

Faye joined in, which as expected, Denis didn't let her touch the precious school book. She respected Denis's wish by not asking more.

When they were done, Faye asked to take a break, sat under the furry carpet that Denis brought, leaning her back against the foot of the bed, "I can ask questions? You're Indonesian but study here, are there no good universities there?"

Denis leaned on her side too, his eyes darting downward with a sigh, and said softly, "I didn't want to come here at first, but after an accident, I was forced to come here."

"Incident?"

"I know what I didn't know all this time, makes me pissed off," said Denis with his hands clenched tightly.

What does it mean? Denis gave ambiguous words, not too confident to open his heart to Faye, strangely she felt hurt because of this.

They were married on a contract, but at least Faye wanted to be close friends with Denis, considering Henry's place is far away.

"But even though my life is a mess now, in the midst of it all, I can feel one little hope," said Denis seriously.

"Hope?"

Denis nodded, then stared at Faye intensely, "I can meet you."

Faye's lips were wide open, she was touched after hearing it to make her heartbeat fast again.

Denis has said this before and Faye's response remains the same.

What's wrong with her?

"Faye ..." Denis called Faye's name so sadly, "you want to help me, right?"

"Help doing what?" asked Faye softly.

Denis was silent for a moment, his mind hesitated whether to answer or not until he finally moved his face closer to Faye.

Faye automatically covered her lips with her hand, "Don't start."

Denis laughed loudly, "You're always suspicious of me, honey~"

Faye rolled her eyes.

Denis has done more than three times getting incidents so how can Faye not be suspicious?

Faye is surprised when Denis hugs her, and lays her on the bed, with Denis on top of her dan both his strong hands on the side of her head, "What now? Stop playing around."

Denis did not flinch, "I don't understand why you put up a high wall on me even though we are married, let the contract at least we have fun, right?"

"I didn't think it was fun," said Faye.

"Can you explain your moans every night, Fay?" Denis returned to challenge with a small grin, making Faye's guts shrink like an ant.
