A Tale of Ary

23. Between Love and Comfort

Days passed, the relationship between Ary and Bayu was getting closer. Although they are only friends, but their closeness exceeds ordinary friends. The comfort that Bayu gives Ary makes Ary forget the love that ever existed for Alex.

His love for Alex seemed lost in time, eroded by the comfort Bayu gave to Ary. In addition to the comfort with Bayu, away from Alex also makes Ary's love fade even lost.

His love for Alex was used to being cared for by Alex, not from the bottom of his heart. Therefore, once there is something that can give a sense of comfort, the love just evaporates. This is not because Ary easily turned away, but because his love used to be just a bad feeling rejecting Alex's love.

Like this time, the first break. Ary and Bayu were in the school library to discuss the lesson this morning.

"It's really hard" Ary said.

"Where are you looking?" answer Bayu.

Ary shifts his book towards Bayu so Bayu can see Ary's lesson.

"It's so easy deck. Just keep adding up and sharing." Bayu explained how to do this.

"I don't know, I don't know yet" replied Ary lazily.

"It's not so exciting how to understand!" Bayu shook his head looking at Ary's behavior.

"This is easy deck, the goods in the warehouse are sold first. It's called FIFO, Fisrt In First Out. The selling price is according to the existing data. Keep this LIFO, Last In First Out. The last thing that went into the warehouse was sold first..."

"Even, enough! Ary understood, he understood. Thank you, brother, for helping to clear up to Ary." Said Ary.

Bayu just smiled as he shook his head, because it has not been finished explaining that Ary has been cut.

"If you already understand the work, the break time is up" said Bayu.

"It doesn't have to be done now, brother, tomorrow it's not collected now" replied Ary.

"If it's done quickly, it's better, Ary. Mumpung still remember the spit-cepet done so as not to forget." advice Bayu.

"Yes, yesaa.." cried Ary.

"Sstttttt..."

Ary immediately covered his mouth with his right hand, he was unaware that he was currently in the library.

"Guns..." Ary grin.

"Therefore do not like to scream in public places" said Bayu while stroking Ary's head.

Bayu used to stroke Ary's head if it is already anxious with Ary's behavior.

"Have done those things, let's run fast!" command Bayu.

Ary began to focus on doing this with passion.

Meanwhile, in the school cafeteria, Eno and Alex and Anton are enjoying their meal.

"Eh, Enno! Looks like you've now been forgotten about Ary, huh?" ask Anton.

"No ah, he just said he wanted to go to the library. He wants to learn again, because the economic lesson he sleepy. So what the teacher explained did not go into his brain." explained Eno

"Yesterday too, Lo was left alone here. Ary went with Bayu. What kind of theme is like that, not loyal friends really." said Anton manasi Eno.

"Basic stove Loe!" eno Sahut.

"But really, we're used to walking alone. We've grown up, cook where to go together." added Eno.

"When your Junior High was where you were always together, it was strange to arrive now on your own" Alex said suddenly.

"It used to be ABG, now it's more mature. Sohib does not have to be always sticky like a stamp, which is important is the same understanding." explained Eno.

"When you enter here you are always together, where are the two. Even to the bathroom, both. It was strange that they suddenly separated. Don't you guys have any more problems?" tanya Anton has not completely trusted Eno.

"Candra's home, got a call from her house. He said he was sick, all his grandchildren were gathered. That's the story." replied Eno.

"I guess the same guy goes with him." Anton chirped.

"Yes, all the way the same guy just Eno Lerian our little singer who has no guy here" Alex sneered with a laugh.

"Ih, rest! I have a girlfriend, my most handsome boy among all of you!" said Eno confidently.

"Obviously, Loe saw him with a straw.." replied Anton.

Alex and Anton laughed out loud at Eno who was pouting. It was nice to laugh at Eno. They used to bully Eno since they were still sitting on the bench of Junior High School.

As they laughed, the bells of learning again rang. Inevitably they had to end their jokes.

The three of them hurried to their classes. While in the hallway of the class they cross paths with Ary and Bayu. Bayu will initially deliver Ary to his class.

"Weehhhh.

"Apaan the hell 🙄" replied Ary.

"Sir Bayu mengingan directly to the class, I went to class with them" said Ary to Bayu.

"Okay, byee. Assalamualaikum.."

Bayu also left Ary with his friends after saying hello.

"Wa'alaikum salam warahmatullahi wabarokatuh" replied Ary and Eno simultaneously.

"Yuk, move! It's too late" Alex said, breaking the silence.

They finally walked to their class to follow their next lesson.

Bayu who does have a brilliant brain gets an invitation to enter STAN college without a test. Bayu who from the beginning wanted to get into the college was very grateful because he could realize his dream.

In gratitude, she invited her classmates and close friends to have lunch together at her family's restaurant. Not to forget also Ary and Eno were also invited by Bayu.

"Ary, let's get some yuk! Make the show for Bayu tomorrow Saturday. There's no new shirt." whine Eno.

"It does not have to be a new dress also times, if you want to go to his show kak Bayu. What to wear!" ary's advice.

"I want to look beautiful and charming every audience there" said Eno, winking.

"Basic lebai Loe!" Ary hits Eno's shoulder with his book.

"Kok lebay anyway, any woman would want to look beautiful enchanting all the time." Eno hyperbole out.

"A dazzling beauty all the time??? Really Loe, take a lazy shower! Beautiful all the time from where??? You!!!" ary taunted.

"Not loyal friends anyway, instead of being entertained even vilified!" Eno began to sulk.

"Beauty is not of the face alone, No. Beautiful is not seen by its appearance. Nice clothes and dress up in a famous salon open. the size of a person is seen as beautiful. But from personality, from our behavior Enooo!" ary's advice.

"Your clothes are a lot, just choose what kind of model. Don't buy clothes too often, but it's his name." added Ary again.

"Yes, Loe help you choose clothes in the closet!" answer Eno.

Eno finally wants advice from Ary. They began to dismantle the closet to look for clothes that will be worn to the Bayu event.
