A MENTARY WITHOUT EMOTION

Flakes

I came out of the OSIS room with a faint face, imagine being lectured longer than Niki's lecture, I was forced to go in and meet him again. I intended to run away when the two of them called my name, but as my head spontaneously turned to finally fail the intention of escaping from the two young men.

“What?”

“I'm sorry,” said they simultaneously, after which staring annoyed at each other.

“Really?” again they talk about it.

“You separated brothers yak?” many wonder.

“NOT!” let them dispute my question. I only hold back my laughter because their behavior is funny to judge.

“But--”

Gabriel almost said a word that made me die of curiosity then he cut it off himself because he was lost. Then I was hung by the word he said. Since I didn't want to lose knowledge of the white-haired figure, I finally asked him who made himself open his mouth about his unfinished speech.

“But what?” ask me with a plain look.

“Ta-but..dia....no....my brother!”.

“Long!” my firmness. Obviously that's just an excuse to anchor me. Gabriel was surprised when I confirmed, he just turned his gaze in the other direction.

“But what?” ask me again, anyway many times I will ask until I get a definite answer. I'm tired of being hung up continuously.

Gabriel seemed to be holding back his embarrassment, he was still not ready to say the answer that kept me waiting. My legs started to hurt to stand for longer. Finally he tried to open his mouth with a courageous heart. Is it too hard to say that word?

“But he...DIA...”

“She is my best friend.”

It felt like the wind was passing by, making me surprised longer on the spot, Alder interrupted and told me the truth until I felt guilty. He just walked past me after saying that, in other words Gabriel and Alder....Oh no, it makes me even more guilty. It felt like my heart was pierced to the point of bleeding and there was a panic in my mind.

I hardly dared to look at Gabriel, but his reaction was different from what I imagined. His cheeks were reddish, a shame visible from his current attitude. All he did right now was hide his shy face from me. I wanted to pull his shirt to face me, somehow I couldn't afford to do it.

“Do not cry.... You are not guilty,” said Gabriel as he blocked my tears that poured out with both hands.

“But I don't accept, I made you guys like this, I made you split up? I'm a destroyer. Damaging your friendship, I... Hix... I'm sorry... I'm sorry, I should have just disappeared from this world, so you could be together again. PLEASE REMOVE ME!”

“No!”

My eyes were wide open, even this pain was getting worse. Feeling guilty about being born into this world is because I've ruined a friendship between those people. I deserve a punishment, I deserve to feel a karma. Whatever it is, please take me out of your memory. Please...

“I am so grateful that fate brought us together.” Gabriel continued.

“Hah!”

I never thought I was so selfish, I was so stubborn and selfish. I was always wrong in acting and even deciding on a plan. When did the flower petals fly in this moment? when did the sparkle of these tears stop to drip? When can I take this pain. I lost, I lost to Niki. That's why I hate myself for not being able to last much longer. I was born to be strong, not weak. I need to get through this mistake as soon as possible. I can definitely bring them together again.

“Is it enough for the drama?”

We were shocked awkwardly as we looked at the girl standing between us. Black curly short hair is the perpetrator of the spread of flakes of flowers. Worse, he is the vice-chairman of OSIS.

His eyes looked at the two of us, in a soft, small voice he said.

“You make a fuss again, you are not kapok yak to be lectured la-”

“FORGIVE US!!” Gabriel pulled my hand and ran quickly from the place. Snowy simply blinked her eyes many times then smiled slightly.

“The youth is indeed tasty yak.” murmured Snowy.

“Not that you're young.” chirps OSIS treasurer named Tony.

.....

“Meet for memories, parting to remember.”
