Halvir shook his head in disbelief, his face clearly showing dissatisfaction. Anindira took a breath and exhaled a little hard, she smiled again and explained again.
''Havi...'' Anindira called softly, ''The vegetables that are usually eaten are cultivated vegetables.''
''What's that? cultivation? I don't understand?" asked Halvir with a serious face.
''Hm…'' Anindira muttered in an indistinct voice, thinking of an answer to Halvir's question, ''You see, cultivated vegetables are... several types of plants that we grow ourselves, we take care of them, until they are ready for harvest, more or less like that...''
''Just like true herbivores do…'' Halvir said.
''Her-her… her?'' asked Anindira, trying to parrot Halvir's new words.
''Her-bi-vo-ra...'' Halvir dictated a new word to Anindira.
"Oh! So some of you have done it too?!'' Anindira exclaimed excitedly.
"Yes, herbivores do it. They don't like hunting, so they plant. And, most of these plants are used for medicine, so Hans is quite familiar with them…'' Halvir replied.
''I see, so it is used more for medicine than for eating,'' said Anindira.
''Not really, herbivores eat it, we don't...'' replied Halvir, correcting Anindira.
''What do you mean?'' asked Anindira, surprised.
"They grow it because they eat it. We will exchange it for skin or meat if we need it for medicine...'' Halvir explained.
''So you don't eat vegetables at all?'' Anindira exclaimed and emphasized.
''We will eat...'' Halvir replied, nodding, ''If there is something wrong with our bodies,'' he added.
''That habit is not good!'' cried Anindira with a firm face. Making Halvir, who was previously indifferent, spin the meat over the fire, now he is seriously looking at Anindira. ''This diet is wrong!'' Anindira shouted again, in a loud and firm voice. ''Between meat, vegetables, and fruit all must be balanced. Don't eat food as medicine, only when we are sick, but eat before we get sick to prevent it!'' exclaimed Anindira, continuing with a serious face.
''What is your diet like?'' Halvir asked, still with a serious face.
''Yes,'' answered Anindira firmly.
Anindira, who is used to Halvir's straight face and sharp eyes, is no longer surprised when Halvir is serious. Halvir looked at Anindira very seriously, looking back at Anindira's entire physique.
''Why should that be?'' asked Halvir again.
Halvir starts to get enthusiastic because all of these things are related to Anindira.
''I told you before, eat to prevent us from getting sick. Do not eat when we are sick!'' cried Anindira replied.
''Why? We only need to eat it if we are sick, it doesn't matter, right?" Halvir asked again, he didn't want to be bothered by what Anindira was doing.
These two creatures from different worlds still don't understand each other's way of thinking and way of life. Halvir thought from the perspective of a powerful beast-man. Halvir didn't think about the women in this world who were often sick, because of the rarity of women around. He didn't think about that.
Women who were raised by two types of human beasts would have different body conditions and that was still not realized by those who were used to living in this world with a way of life that had been passed down for generations.
''Huft...'' Anindira let out a long sigh, ''Okay, I'm not going to argue any louder about this. Just finish it!'' Anindira shouted again.
Anindira realizes that she still doesn't know much about this world, she doesn't want an argument like this to make her relationship with Halvir worse. Anindira thought that she could talk about this more later when she knew more.
''It's up to you... But, you still like to eat wild vegetables, don't you?!'' Halvir shouted, asking for more clarification.
''Yes... I still eat it, to balance the nutrition,'' Anindira replied.
Anindira didn't know that Halvir didn't understand the last word he said. But, because Halvir is too prestigious, as usual. Anindira likes to say things from her world and these words are not understood by Halvir. However, he was too lazy to ask. As long as he still understands other sentences, he doesn't care if only a word or two of Anindira's sentences confuses him.
"How are those wild vegetables different from those grown by your people? You said the taste was different…'' asked Halvir again, he still wanted to talk to Anindira.
''Eum... Yes, that's because, where I come from, these vegetables taste bitter and bitter, also leaving a sharp smell of grass and an earthy smell. Because of that, too, many leave them and no longer eat them…" said Anindira, describing the vegetables in front of her.
''Look at that, like wild spinach and earrings leaf...'' said Anindira pointing at some of the plants sitting around, ''This too...'' Anindira showed a bunch of pohpohan leaves that Halvir picked for her, ''In the village -The village still eats a lot. But, unlike the people in the city, not many people know about this wild vegetable... I was born and grew up in the city, but I also often go back to my hometown. My mother and also my grandmother are health practitioners. From their upbringing, our family liked to eat vegetables...''
Anindira paused for a moment, she took a few breaths to continue again.
"These… wild vegetables that are here… maybe because the air is clean, there is no pollution, and the quality of the groundwater is still not polluted, making the taste very good, not inferior to the vegetables that are cultivated. I enjoyed it, really…'' said Anindira, continuing his long lecture on vegetables.
"Do you only eat grown vegetables? What about meat? Is it because it's with me? So you eat more meat...'' asked Halvir probingly, he was worried if his way of eating changed Anindira's previous diet.
"The meat you gave me, that's a lot. You know the daily portion that you give me, doesn't necessarily cover my portion of eating meat for a week…'' continued Anindira, smiling innocently, proud of Halvir's kindness to her.
Halvir and Anindira still hadn't finished their conversation, still with Halvir's face showing his annoyance, because his pride was hurt by the wild vegetables.
''Why so little?'' asked Halvir, ''You eat quite a lot of meat, that means you're not a herbivore...'' said Halvir, expressing his thoughts, ''It means that Hans is right, your clan is weak, even your father can't provide enough meat for you to eat…'' Halvir continued.
Finally, Halvir could calm down after being satisfied with expressing his opinion, then returned to twirling his meat. He didn't realize that now Anindira's face was turning sour because of his words.
''Havi, I'm angry!'' cried Anindira with sharp eyes looking at Halvir, ''I don't like it when someone insults my father,'' cried Anindira with a strained expression, her eyes bulging a little, continuing her words. "Don't insult my father! He is the best man who educated and raised me. I don't like it when someone insults him even though it's you!'' Anindira exclaimed, continuing her words with an angry expression and eyes looking straight at Halvir.
