BXBX NOVEL Chapter 10 - Chocolate Pancake
In the evening. Luna waited for Ethan who wasn't home yet. Even Ethan didn't give her any news about overtime.
Luna was waiting for him on the sofa in her room, because Shandra and Arsha had been at home since this afternoon. Even though she doesn't love him, Luna feels worried and lonely when Ethan comes home late at night. Even she couldn't sleep. Moreover, her breath began to feel short because of her distended stomach.
Luna lay on the sofa watching videos of various foods on Instagram. There is one food that makes her drool and want to makes it.
...
"Chocolate pancakes. I haven't tasted it in a long time," muttered Luna, staring at the appetizing pancake picture. Because Luna is a chocolate lover. When saw chocolate, she wanted it right away.
Luna turned to the open door of her room. Ethan looked sluggish in his face. Maybe because of tired and tired from overtime.
"Why did you just come home?" asked Luna briefly. Even though she's been waiting. However, when the person she had been waiting for had arrived, she was acting up instead.
"Overtime."
"Then why don't you tell me?"
"Sorry. I was so focused that I forgot to give you the news."
Ethan sat on the bed and looked at his wife, who was focused on her cell phone.
"Why haven't you slept yet. It's ten at night?" Ethan asked.
"I can't sleep," answered Luna without turning her head.
"Have you drunk milk?" Ethan asked again. He did not forget the routine of his wife who had to drink milk every day. But sometimes his wife often forgets to drink milk.
"Not yet," replied Luna casually.
Ethan let out a rough breath and then got up from his seat. He immediately walked out of the room to the kitchen to make pregnant milk for Luna. Ethan really pays attention to Luna's daily life. Moreover, he knows that what is conceived is twins. Of course Luna needs more nutritional intake.
"Drink it. Don't skip drinking. I don't want our child to be deficient in vitamins." Ethan ordered while handing a glass of chocolate flavored milk to Luna.
Luna sighed lazily at the glass of milk. She was really bored everyday having to drink milk, like a child according to her.
"I'm so tired of drinking this every day," muttered Luna as she took the milk from Ethan's hand. She immediately drank it little by little. Meanwhile, Ethan decided to take a shower because he felt hot and sticky on his body.
"Don't you want to sleep. It's already late?" asked Ethan, who had finished taking a shower and put on his pajamas. He lay down on his king size bed, while Luna remained on the sofa playing with her cellphone.
"I'm not sleepy yet. You go to sleep first" replied Luna.
"Okay." Ethan immediately went to sleep because he was so tired and tired. It only took him a few minutes to be in dreamland.
Until 12 at night. Luna still can't sleep even though she's lying beside Ethan. She restlessly tilted to the right tilted to the left. Her stomach felt hungry and tight. In the shadows are the chocolate-flavored pancakes..
Luna looked at Ethan, who was sleeping. She had the idea of asking Ethan to make pancakes for her. It doesn't matter the time of day or how sleepy Ethan is. Luna just wanted her husband's pancakes.
"Tan ... wake up!" Exclaimed Luna, shaking Ethan's body.
"Hmm. Why? I'm sleepy, Luna." Ethan replied with his eyes still closed.
"Make pancakes. I'm hungry," asked Luna in a spoiled tone. It's different when she's annoyed she'll be harsh on Ethan for no reason.
"It's night, Luna. Go to sleep," Ethan said lazily.
"I can't sleep. Your child will ask. Do you want our child to be the child who likes to suck," whined Luna.
"Hmm, okay." said Ethan. He immediately got out of bed with lazy steps into the kitchen. Luna also went to the kitchen. But she didn't help. Just staring at her husband making chocolate pancakes like in the picture earlier.
Ethan makes pancakes while watching the tutorial from the youtube video.
Because pancakes are an easy food to make. It only took 15 minutes for Ethan to finish making those pancakes.
"It's done," Ethan handed me a plate of pancakes stacked on top of them with melted chocolate.
"I hope it tastes good. As I hope," said Luna while cutting the pancakes, "let's try daddy's pancakes, "said Luna, stroking her stomach.
Ethan smiled when he saw Luna talking to the baby in her stomach. Luna sometimes goes him own way. Sometimes it also acts as if it gives him hope.
"Isn't that great?" Ethan asked
"Whatever the food, if it tastes chocolate it must be delicious. You have to try it, "said Luna as she put the pancake slices into Ethan's mouth.
Ethan who was a little surprised Luna fed him. Taking bribes awkwardly, "It's delicious"
"I told you. If you use chocolate, it's always delicious. We eat together, I won't be able to finish it alone," said Luna, cutting pancakes.
Luna's cell phone which she had brought to the kitchen, rang. She saw it immediately. There is an incoming call from her in-laws. Luna immediately took it while eating her pancakes with Ethan
"Hello, Mom," said Luna
"Hello, Luna. Where's Ethan. Why aren't you sleeping right now?" asked Dina from across the phone
"Ethan's cell phone looks like it's in the room. We're eating in the kitchen." Luna replied. Meanwhile, Ethan is eating pancakes while watching Luna on the phone.
"Mommy wants to talk to Ethan."
"Yes, Mom. Wait a minute."
Luna handed her cellphone to Ethan, "called from mommy. She said wanted to talk to you."
Ethan immediately took Luna's cellphone.
"Hello, Mom," said Ethan.
"Hello, Ethan. The day after tomorrow I'm having a family reunion. Can you come?"
"Yes, Mom. I'll try to come."
"If you can take Luna too. Mommy miss her so much."
"Yes, Mom, I'll take her later."
"Yes, then, mommy hung up the phone. Quickly take your wife to bed. It's late at night."
"Yes, Mom."
Connection lost. Ethan immediately returned the cell phone to Luna.
"What are you talking about?"
"She wants us to come to Singapore for a family reunion. Do you want to come?" Ethan looked at Luna expectantly. Because he doesn't want his mother to be disappointed
"Hmmm. Yes, I will participate, as well as refresh," said Luna with a smile. For some reason, since taking advice from her sister, Luna has become a little friendlier to Ethan. Of course Ethan welcomed Luna's hospitality with a happy smile. Hopefully it will be a sign that Luna will cancel her divorce plans after giving birth.
