A Light Fountain

Boyfriend?

It's afternoon. From noon after school, Jasmine and Petter accompanied Assena for almost three hours. They spent time chatting, joking and silly debates also occasionally occurred between Petter and Jasmine. Making Assena shake his head, sometimes also makes Assena smile amused by the behavior of his two friends.

And there comes a time when Patter and Jasmine say goodbye to going home.

"It's a pity that it's late afternoon, I still want to be with you. But I have to go home" said Jasmine sadly as if reluctant to leave Assena.

Assena smiled, "it's okay, we'll meet back soon when I go to school later".

"Hurry to heal, I'm looking forward to it" Jasmine hugged Assena.

"Regarding your phone, I couldn't find it" Petter said.

"So yeah, it's okay Petter. Thank you for looking for it for me" Assena smiled.

"Thank you, you guys have come and accompanied me" said Assena smilingly staring at her two friends alternately.

"That's what friends are for, accompanying each other whenever and whatever the circumstances". Jasmine smilingly looked at the two Assena beads that displayed novelty.

Again, they hugged each other.

Petter smiled at what was in front of him, "Can I join in to hug?" with a funny face.

"You're different, you're not a man to cuddle with" Jasmine said.

"Whatever it is up" Petter pretended to sulk.

"Come on, I'll take you to the front" Assena said, trying to get up and get out of bed.

But quickly Petter and Jasmine forbid it.

"No need, you just rest here" said Jasmine holding the body of Assena who was about to stand up.

"Alright, I'll go home first" Jasmine stood up. "See you at school later" he said smilingly waving his hands and starting to step up.

Petter followed Jasmine's steps, and before he reached the doorstep he stopped to look at Assena, who was looking at him, Petter looked at him and smiled.

Assena returned the smile, until Petter left unseen.

**

Jasmine and Petter said goodbye to Evelin as well as Arkan who was in the middle of the room.

Petter's motor sport is now driving out of Assena's yard.

Assena, who was standing on the balcony, stared at the departure of the two friends.

**

"That's Assena's boyfriend, I just saw him" Arkan said in the living room.

"Yes, all I know from the past is that his friend is Jasmine." - Evelin.

"She's grown up to be a pretty girl, no wonder she has a boyfriend too, right?" arkan.

Arkan and Evelin were busy talking about Assena's boyfriend. Because for them this is the first time Assena has a boyfriend.

**

Now Assena sat on the bed, quiet again he felt.

Previously in this room there was laughter and noise from his two friends.

Now his gaze was shifted to the table beside his bed. The fruits brought by Petter and Jasmine.

"I'm happy to have friends like you" he said slowly, and smiled still staring at the hand of his best friend.

Tok tok, the sound of that knock shifted his gaze.

"Sister, can I come in".

Isabella's voice came from behind the door.

Assena stood up and stepped up to grab the door handle. The door opened, and Isabella was standing with a book on her chest.

"Can I draw in my sister's room? mom's been forbidding me to come here, because I'm afraid I'm gonna interrupt brother's break. But I promise I won't interfere and won't be noisy" Isabella said with hopeful eyes.

"You can enter, brother won't be bothered" Assena smiled.

"Thank you sister" Isabella stepped into the room.

Now that drawing books and colored pencils were scattered on the floor, Isabella continued to draw and color.

"Did sister know? I felt lonely studying alone in the room" said Isabella puffing her face to look at her brother for a moment.

Assena who heard that, was shocked to feel resuscitated. They live in the same house but are not close to each other. Because Assena also felt lonely in this house, did not have close friends to just accompany each other.

"really?" assena asked looking at Isabella who was back busy drawing.

"Can I come here often? I promise I won't be noisy and won't make your room fall apart" Isabella looked back at Assena's face.

Assena was silent for a moment, then pulled her lips into a smile. "Of course, you can come anytime".

"really?" isabella's sparkling eyes were delighted to hear that.

Assena nodded with a smile.

"Look, it's mom, it's dad, it's brother and it's me" Isabella said, showing her drawing with her index finger pointing one at a time.

Assena smiled at Isabella's drawing, "you're very good at drawing" she said, ruffling Isabella's hair.

"really? but here I look really ugly" Isabella pointed again at the picture.

And there was laughter from the brothers.

**

Two days Assena had spent in the room, he was bored and wanted to go back to school.

And during that time also Isabella often come to her room to accompany her or just ask for help to surprise her PR. Makes Assena not feel lonely anymore. He enjoys spending time with his stepbrother.

This morning, Assena was getting ready for school. He went downstairs for breakfast.

"Good morning dear" said Evelin who was arranging the breakfast menu this morning at the dinner table

"Are you sure you're going to school today? do you really feel good?" ask Arkan still worried about Assena.

"I've been much better, I've wanted to go to school" Assena replied as she shifted her chair and sat down.

"All right, then".

**

Assena stepped her foot into the school gate. Just did not enter for two days, it felt like he missed this school.

He kept moving with spirit.

"Assena, wait!" the sound of someone screaming from behind.

Assena recognized the voice, stopped and turned around.

Alvin stepped quickly to get closer.

Assena stood still, staring at the approaching Alvin.

Alvin is in front of Assena. He paused for a moment to look at the girl in front of him.

Assena immediately frowned "what's up?".

"I want to return this". Alvin said as he handed the phone in his hand.

"My phone" Assena took the thing from Alvin's hand.

"I found it, near the pool" said Alvin.

To be honest, Alvin now looks a little nervous. Unlike Alvin who is usually arrogant and arrogant.

"Thank you for giving this back" Assena said, then turned and stepped up.

Just two steps, "wait" cried Alvin again who managed to stop the steps of Assena.

"I heard yesterday you were sick. Sorry, I feel guilty. Because it was you who fell into the pool" said Alvin.

"No need to feel guilty, it was just an accident, I was careless to make me fall" Assena looked at Alvin's gloomy face.

"But I...." Alvin's voice hangs.

Assena quickly interjected, "Have it, it's really not your fault. I have to go" Assena quickly turned around and stepped away.

Alvin just silently stared at Assena's departure, "why is it so hard to get close to her" he said.
