"No, I'm not papah, Ra," he said with an awkward smile. Once again Darren strummed the strings of the guitar he was holding, creating a series of beautiful and harmonious sounding tones in my ears, even though the song he played felt so sad and full of sadness.
"Ren, aren't you really papa? Can't you give me a happy song instead of a sad one?" I asked later, half protest.
"Ehm ... Happy song? What kind of song do you want?" tanya Dareen later, like a musician in the middle of her solo concert.
"As ...."
"Like those K-pop songs?" asked Darren who was immediately continued by his laughter before I could answer.
"Gee! Why laugh? You know, they're talented" I said. "I'm sure, you won't be able to sing while dancing like them. You may be out of breath, you. It's called multitalent. You can see how perfect they are, like there's nothing else they can't do."
"Yes, yes ... I know, don't hire that, uh!" saith. "You defend them like this too, they don't know and won't thank you."
"Euh ... Yes, yes." This time I can't deny it. It's all true, I don't get anything, they won't even know me.
"Hm... What if I sing in front of you right now. Rather than live gini, make out my quota," he suggested suddenly.
"Well! Midnight gini? You want to ramen in front of my house in the middle of a gini mall?" I cried out of surprise.
"Yes ... Don't look at dong. Just normal." reply quickly.
"God! You are unusual. There you will be scolded by Mr. RT!"
"Guman scolded doang, small. Also, don't papa if it's the same as you, Ra," he said with a thin smile on his lips. "I can't afford it. Can't make it!"
"Gee! Ngaco ah," I said wrongly. "Looks like you're sleepy, Ren. Going home, sleeping at home is much better than at school. Anyway, pity your mama you find you."
"Thank you, Ra," he said suddenly.
"Make what?"
"Ehm ... Make everything" said Darren. Now the young man came closer and grabbed his phone, making his face look huge on my screen. "At least I know that, you're worried about me. So anxious, you vidio call me."
"Yee! There are you who moved in regular calls so vidio calls!" sahutku later.
Now I can breathe a sigh of relief. "But Ren, actually ... For me, you are one of my best friends. One of my close friends, of course I have to worry about you. Wouldn't you do the same if you were in my position?"
For a moment the man was silent. Looks like there's something he's contemplating.
"No, I don't think I'm going to do the same thing you did" he said.
"God! So you wouldn't worry if I said? Friends have no morals!" pissed me. "Can't worry about me."
Darren laughed chuckling. "You know what I'm gonna do?"
I smashed my lips in annoyance. "Tick? Surely you will talk if you will be cool, you will not care. Boy friends have no feelings!"
"Did I say that?" tanyanya.
"Yes ... No, just my guess. What do you want to answer?" I was a little curious.
"Of course I'll look for you" he said with a faint smile on his lips. "And I won't be home until you meet."
This time I saw his face turn serious, without the usual laughter he had when joking with me. And this makes me feel even more awkward.
"May ..."
I don't want to smile either. A handsome? Yes, he is handsome. But unfortunately my heart already has and I can't turn away from my lover.
"Beautiful," he murmured.
"Huh?" I said, pretending not to hear her words just now.
"Eeh, no," he said nervously. "Good sleep Tiara. I'll see you tomorrow."
A moment later his face disappeared from my screen. He ended our vidio call as fast as lightning. Maybe she felt embarrassed, because my feelings were flinching as hard as she tried to seduce.

"Well! So your mom finally bought you an apartment, Ren?" Raka's voice was heard beating the crowd of the canteen that afternoon.
Darren immediately raised his hand and made it as a tool for covering Raka's mouth. "Shhh, don't rame!"
"Indeed why? There's nothing wrong with that, is there?" raka protested while removing the hand of her closest friend.
"Yes ... Not good," he said with a corner of his eye toward me. Maybe he wants to get my support from Raka who teased him earlier.
"Sister Robin is still angry with you?" my many. Of course this makes me feel concerned. However I do not want to be considered as the cause of the split between the two brothers.
"No papah, Ra. At least with the apartment, mama is not worried I will sleep where," he said calmly.
"Ehem! Continue ... When did you move your house?" tease Shinta with her signature smile.
"Eh, yes. Must've. Eat big, eat food," said Raka chimed in Shinta's words, as if not to lose, as if he did not want to lose,
"Udah, don't glare at that, Ra." Suddenly Shinta patted my back. "Are you bothered that I was with Raka to Darren's apartment?"
"Did? How me?" I was shocked by his accusation. "You guys, Darren moved not because he's a lot of money. It was because he had a fight with his brother. Why do you even look so happy, keep making him a target for the party."
"Dnh ... Dih, why are you the sewot, Ra?" shinta was deliberately teasing me.
"Well! Be that as it may... I don't know." I don't know why I'm upset about their babbling this afternoon. Without further ado, I stood up and left the cafeteria that was still crowded with starving students that afternoon.
But not far away I stepped, I saw a kitten on the second floor of our school building. The eongnya voice seemed to be clear, asking for help to just go down. Somehow he was able to be on the top floor of our school building. Maybe the mother left him there.
Hm ... Maybe it'll be easier for him to find food down there. He can go to the kitchen or to the school cafeteria to get some leftovers.
I don't know why the kitten was like a magnet pulling me to help him. I grabbed her, rubbed her gently to calm her down before holding her and bringing her down.
"Remain you, Ra?" asked Renny sarcastically. The question uttered in a cynical tone even surprised me to the point of almost jumping.
"Eh! You're Ren. Nope-worry. Just want to give this kitten down there" I said. "I think he'd find it easier to get food down there than up here."
Renny scrunched his face. I just sighed, trying to keep my emotions that today felt unstable. I slowly hugged the kitten as I descended one by one the stairs in front of me.
Suddenly I felt someone pushing me. And because my hand hugged the kitten, I couldn't reach the handle of the stairs. Of course it made my body slide from the second floor of the building without any obstructions.
I screamed in surprise!
