13 | Matteo

Evelynn terjaga dari tidurnya lalu melihat Matteo tiada di sisinya. Dia mengerutkan keningnya. Dia berada dalam bilik lelaki itu namun suaminya tak ada di sana. Adakah dia sedang bermimpi?

"Good morning, baby."

Matteo berjalan masuk bersama sarapan dan air di tangannya.

"Good morning, cinta. What is all this? Banyak ni makanan. Awak buat semua ni?" "Yes. I want you to taste my breakfast in bed. I want to cook you a first meal too."

Evelynn terkelu. Dia terharu.

"Aww.. this is too sweet, cinta. Why are you doing all this? Biarlah saya yang buat." "In this house, I and you.. are equal. We'll do everything together. Plus, it'll be fun to cook together."

Evelynn tersenyum manis lalu menggigit bibir ia tanda tergoda dengan suaminya.

"I should warn you.. don't do that, baby." "Don't do what?" "Something hot you're doing now. Im not going to stay still while you're doing that."

Evelynn tergelak kecil lalu menggeleng.

"I'll take bath first and we'll eat together." "Nope. We'll eat first and bath together." "Hey.." "What? Nak tolak offer I?"

Matteo mengangkat keningnya. Evelynn menarik nafas panjang.

"I can't let you lose so.. we'll follow your idea but I'll need to brush my teeth first."

Evelynn berjalan ke bilik air. Matteo terus sahaja tersenyum manis. Suka betul melihat gelagatnya di pagi hari. Comel!

Evelynn kembali ke arah Matteo lalu mengambil tempat di bertentangan suaminya.

"Let's eat." "Feed me."

Matteo mengangkat keningnya.

"Cinta.. awak tahu tak saya ni cepat cair dengan expression awak? So jangan naikkan kening tu." "Kalau saya tahu, dah lama saya naikkan kening cantik saya ni. Biar awak cair berkali kali."

Evelynn ketawa sebelum memandang suaminya semula.

"Feed me. I'm hungry." "Fine. You feed me then. Im hungry too." "Tapi awak boleh makan juga. I mean.. feed me while you eat too." "Okay, baby."

Evelynn berjaya. Dia tidak perlu mengotorkan tangannya.

"How is it?" "Heaven. Sedap gila! I need to learn doing this, cinta. Teach me." "Thank you, baby. I will teach you."

Mereka selesai menjamu selera sebelum Matteo dan Evelynn membersihkan pinggan dan cawan yang digunakan.

"Wait.. we should attend Dino's wedding today right? Aaaaa I forgot!" "Dino? My friend?" "Ya! Dia ajak kita pergi dalam wedding semalam."

"Should we go?" "Yess! Dia kata, kalau awak tak pergi, putus kawan kan?" "Dia main main jelah. Takkanlah nak putus kawan terus?" "Boleh jadi. Saya dengar, ada orang berhenti kerja sebab dia pergi wedding semua kawan office tapi seorang pun tak attend majlis kahwin dia. So we should go. Kita kena jaga hati kawan." "Ya, baby."

Mereka pergi ke majlis perkahwinan itu bersama sama. Matteo menarik nafas panjang.

"Are you okay, cinta? Why do you look anxious? It's your friend's wedding right?" "I'm okay. I'm just.. looking forward to see my friends."

Evelynn memegang tangan Matteo erat. Matteo tersenyum. Wanita itu sentiasa membuatkan ia selesa.

"Mat!? Oh my god you're here?! After six years! Finally I'm seeing you again. How are you, bro! Kau sihat?" "Alhamdulillah, I'm good. How are you?" "I'm good bro. So this is your wife? She's beautiful. No wonder kau jatuh hati sejak dulu."

Evelynn mengerutkan keningnya. Dia melihat Matteo. Matteo menelan air liurnya. Habislah dia!

"Sampai hati kau tak ajak kitorang pergi wedding kau. Baru ingat nak tengok kau kahwin dengan si bidadari impian kau." "Hm. Tulah. Kitorang dulu sampai termimpi mimpi nak pergi wedding kau."

Evelynn memandang Matteo. Dia terasa seperti dia tidak tahu banyak perkara tentang lelaki ini.

"Evelynn jangan risau, Mat takkan tinggal you sampai bila bila because, he was madly in love with you. Kitorang ingat you tak wujud but Im happy that you're here."

Evelynn terkelu. Matteo memegang tangannya erat kerana dia takut wanita itu akan marah ia.

"Plus Evelynn.. you're lucky because he love you more than his mother's which was his life before seeing you."

Evelynn tersenyum kecil walaupun hatinya bagai dilambung ombak kerana terkejut.
