AL And EL

Miracle Tenth

"There are only two choices when it comes to love, which is to stay or to leave"

Al got out of the cafe, got his broken guitar. He did not walk home but stepped towards the side alley where the old building was located. When there was a gripping atmosphere he found, he opened the door slowly. Climb the dusty floor, opening the second door. He looked left-right, ascertaining whether El was there. The one standing in the ring was not El, or someone he knew. Sitting for almost an hour, as long as it is also in the ring has changed. Al grumbled, played his shoes and intended to stand up. It looks like El's not here.

He came out of the old building with a sad face. During the journey in the narrow alley he always turned his head back, hoping that the cold man would stand behind him. Until he was on the big road, his hope never happened. Al gave up, he better find public transport and go home soon.

Fifteen minutes into the journey, Al was home. Take off your shoes, say hello and slam your bag on the couch. Jovan, who was reading the newspaper, lowered the newspaper a little, opening his eyes to look at Al.

"Tumben's got that face bent?"

"Al again" Al's story.

"Why furniture?"

"Tauuuk ah, Al wants to go in the room"

Al walked away on the stairs without taking Jovan's call again.

"Iwristella"

It turned out that her longing for the mattress did not last long, as she laid her body on the mattress Bella's voice boomed.

Knocking on the door repeatedly, Al clucked his foot and opened the door.

"What the hell is ma?"

Al's uniform was still attached, he opened the door lazily. Staring at Bella who was shaking her waist.

"It's buying mama soy sauce in the front mini market"

Bella gives money, making Al's lips curl forward.

"Males ma'am"

"Slacker girl boy. It's a quarry"

Inevitably Al complied, he went down the stairs. Get out of the house. Down the lonely aisle, meet street vendors who peddle food. In front of the minimarket he saw El, saw the man get out of the car with a man, probably his age.

El looked down, as if afraid. After a while the man went to take his car, leaving El who stood in front of the minimarket alone

"El" immediately Al called out, unwilling to lose the man.

El turned his head, looking at Al's face which always rolled up a laugh.

"Remain here?"

They were the same standing, wearing the same school uniform. El just kept quiet not replying, put his hand in his pocket. El goes, goes into the minimarket without saying a word. Al following. Pulling El's shirt so that the man answers his question.

Until the cooling machine was still silent, he took a soda, gulped it until it ran aground.

"Al was El nyariin you know, but El is not there"

The soft voice of Al.

"Gue is busy" he replied expressionlessly.

He was still staring at the cooling machine, squeezing a can of soda in his hand.

There was no other conversation other than the two of them similarly silently nailing staring at the self-reflection of the cooling machine.

"When do we do our Chemistry job?" only Al's voice always filled the silence between them.

But El was silent, he still faithfully looked at his reflection from the cooling machine. Reopen the cooling machine, take the alcohol and open the can cover.

Al Terurur's hand grabbed the can, making El's eagle's eyes immediately swerve.

"It's El's alcohol. El can't drink this'

However Al knows what that drink is, the drink that could make El might be here. Being a crazy person who is not aware of anything.

El sniffed, it was free for him to respond to this girl. He passed away, without saying anything to Al.

If you don't remember Bella's ketchup order, maybe Al will go after El. But he's still sane to do that now, he walks in search of soy sauce and goes to the cashier. Of course with alcohol cans that are still in hand.

"It's the same drink"

Al thrust the two objects towards the cashier.

"Sorry mbak, this drink has been paid the same mas mas earlier"

"Eh" Al was shocked, yes he should not be surprised. This drink El opened it anyway.

After paying the price of half the soy sauce, because the remaining money El left behind is still, so to pay for the soy sauce Al.

The girl walked cheerfully up the deserted passageway, meeting with another five-foot pedal. But, I don't know what kind of miracle this mama Winnie the Pooh has. He met El, met the man who was fixated on staring at a pair of parents eating with his son.

"El hungry?" al's voice was only glimpsed by El, with no interest. The man sat himself on the lip of the sidewalk. Look at the deserted yard.

El did not answer, just sat quietly like a man of many minds.

"Want to eat but have no money?" Al is still with his prejudices, not knowing which preconceptions are right with El.

"So anyway, sok sok and buy alcohol, sook sok an money left, so laper right" 

Al sat down next to El, this time with no rejection from El. A progression to the relationship between the two

"Lo live here?" was the first question from the tall man the owner of that sturdy jaw.

"Hhhh"

Al was confused, confused to answer El's question. Not ready to answer, the tall man stood up, walked away.

"Yes El, Al lives here, El wants to stop by"

The sound of Al's screams though still not echoed by El. The man went, towards the minimarket where they met, lost in the street turn. Not seen anymore, but El's question made Al's face bright, his lips raised.
