"Alex, look at this your favorite library has officially become a famous restaurant. Let's go there, counting on the days when it was still a library," asked Amel while showing a local newspaper whose front page contained news of the opening of the Black Grill restaurant.
" Noooo! " iks shouted loudly so that all the residents of the campus library at that time turned to him.
" I'm on a lot of errands this week" said Alex, this time in a nearly whispered voice.
"Yaaaaah, it's a pity that the plan was to take Ryan as well, and you can take Ben," said Amel disappointed.
Alex doesn't tease Amel and pretends to be busy reading the book in front of him. Come when an ordinary day will think a million times first, this is even invited to come on opening night. Look for problems with his name. The opening night could turn into a reunion night. Inner Alex.
Not only that once Amel asked for it, but during a day on campus empty every change of course and hour of rest he met Alex only to invite him to go to the Black Grill Restaurant patching, he said, not to mention all mobile phone messages.
"What a wonder, you should be the same Ryan to be the most excited to go, in that way the library you visit most often. It's even a compact both do not want to." said Amel when Again he intercepted Alex who this time was about to go home to college.
Ryan is lazy, especially me. Alex thought to himself. Out of curiosity why Amel was so incessant to invite him Alex then said, "Had to be at the opening? Can't the other day? That's a restaurant that's not just open tonight."
"But specifically later tonight there is a discount of up to 50%." Finally revealed the reason for Amel's misery.
Still resisting even with the lure of half-price cuts, Alex left his friend who craved like a child. But Amel can still go alone or with others. Why did he go with Alex.
From inside the bus that Alex was riding, he could see from a distance the public library building that had been conjured so that it increasingly looked antique and luxurious.
For the next week Alex asked for permission to leave from his part-time work, so after college he only languished in the room. He was really anticipating the possibility of meeting Chris or Madeline.
Even he had to be absent from the fishing schedule with the others. Initially Ben thought Alex wanted to stay away from him, but Alex managed to convince him on the grounds that he was having a little family problem at home that must be resolved. Even Alex promised when his family problems were over he would treat Ben to a drink at work.
' Ting Tong's'
From the peephole in the door, Alex sees Ryan's figure.
Open the door with a big smile. Just 2 days languishing in the apartment Alex was already feeling very bored.
"Hi, how are you?" ask Ryan. They hadn't met for a long time to talk. Several times they passed each other, and only greeted him in passing.
"I'm bosaaaaaannnn," complained Alex to let Ryan in.
"You're all right? Amel was crashing and nagging because we compactly refused to go to the Black Grill" Ryan said with a funny expression of worry.
I guess he's here because he's really worried, even because his girlfriend's nagging. So now you dare to tell the story. Alex's inner being a little cobbled.
" You too, why try not to follow. It has nothing to do with you either. Maybe now Chris has forgotten what you look like. Just met once too, right?" alex said in a slightly upset tone.
"It's not a matter of him remembering it or not, but I myself seem to have a reflex to beat him up if I meet him" Ryan said.
"and again, we can still go there another day. Later I treat you both, let Amel not sulk and count to cure your hobby against ******** that," continued Ryan.
"Who is phobic!" alex's protest was not accepted.
"What am I doing anyway" Alex grumbled as he passed into the kitchen to get a drink for his guests.
"Say what was that?" ryan asked curiously.
"I said I'd grab a drink and a snack first" Alex told me.
Alex... Alex, why don't you just interrogate Ryan right now. When did they become, how did the story come to be, and more. As a friend you should be happy. Though usually you can tell the most privacy thing to him. When you question that you doubt. Are you still trying to deny their relationship? Are you not willing for Ryan to belong to anyone else? A lot of things ran through Alex's mind.
Ryan accompanied Alex long enough, even they cooked dinner together and Ryan was just saying goodbye after finishing washing the cutlery.
Later that night he chatted with his friends in his hometown.
Alex reports progress on his relationship with Ben. At first he thought he would get praise for daring to try, but in fact even more scolding he got.
"Your progress is like Lex's limp snail" Nayla said.
"Hush, don't be Nay, for Alex we've made great progress," Ratna defended Alex a little, of course after the first nag.
"Well, how else. It's hard to deal with a girl who's still aheemm" Nayla said.
"You guys, what's my fault if I want to keep it for the man who's about to marry me." Alex was upset because it was always made into a mockery. Even though he knew his friends were just joking.
Alex never underestimated any woman who chose to lose her virginity before marriage. It's none of his business, and everyone has their own choices, it's just that for a long time he was upset also because today many people even underestimate the women who choose to give the first to their husbands. It was as if we were living in the stone age and such a thing was no longer his Age.
"We're not asking you to come to Ben's apartment or any guy to do this. We mean, you're walking in place, you're waiting to be shot, Ben's waiting for you to go to the apartment. How about you try to accept the invitation and look there, if it turns out that you want to say okay. Problem solved," said Stefi at length representing another.
" But yes, that Ben, is it difficult he shot in the Park ato in the parking lot, it must be in the apartment? "Nayla curious.
" Who knows, he didn't want to shoot, but just wanted to 'that', "celtuk Ratna.
" I think whatever it is that must be resolved, want to stick in a relationship that is not clear and every day tired of looking for reasons not to play to the apartment? " ask Nayla.
It is also true what his best friend suggested. It's just, what happens if it doesn't end well. Will her relationship with Ben be so awkward and she could also lose other friends because of this.

Her incubation period ended today. Fortunately, there were many tasks from campus so he was a little busy, and his college friends were also willing to do group assignments in his apartment. After college later Alex plans to enjoy his last day by eating and sleeping while watching movies marathon, but tomorrow he does not have college.
"Alex if it's not wrong you're hanging out with Amel?" ask Mila his college friend.
"Lumayan is close, but also not too close," replied Alex, because indeed all this time Amel who had been attached to him from the beginning, and Alex just tried to appreciate their friendship.
"You better not get too close to him, especially if you have a boyfriend or girlfriend," said Mila gave advice.
"Why is that?" alex asked, why suddenly his classmates seemed to know something about Amel that he did not know.
"Say Amel likes to approach people's girlfriends, let alone friends or people he knows, certainly will be treated by his boy," said Mila.
How astonished Alex was to hear the news. How could it be, instead of Amel is dating Ryan. If the problem of chasing men is indeed like a hobby for Amel, and he also quickly broke up and then pursued a new one. But it seems like lately he's not been like that and Alex thinks it's because he finally feels like a good fit with Ryan.
Although it seems that it is not his business, he does not have a girlfriend and chat, but still the news was disturbing Alex because of Ryan.
Without thinking for a second, he called Ryan's number.
"Hallo Lex, what the wind is" Ryan teased elsewhere.
"There was nothing, the last day of incubation. Want a movie marathon at my place? Take Amel too,"
"Can, but you're the one who invited Amel, you guys did not meet on campus?"
"No, our school hours are different. Uh, how's your relationship with Amel anyway?" ask Alex awkwardly.
"All right, why?"
"It's okay, I've met you later that afternoon," Alex ended his call.
It seems that the gossip that Mila said was not true, maybe she heard people talking about Amel who used to be. Guess Alex.
Late in the afternoon Ryan arrived at Alex's apartment complete with ingredients to make restaurant-style fried rice (full of meat, eggs, vegetables). They headed straight for the kitchen to execute all the ingredients that were already available.
"I thought it was coming with Amel" said Alex, who was sauteing meat and vegetables.
"Indeed, did he say he wanted to come with my6?"
"Well, why did she turn back, what did you say to her?" Alex pressed the meat so that the broth was out mixed with vegetables and fried onions.
"I didn't call him, I thought you finally knew him."
"Well! No, I thought it was you who knew." Alex and Ryan looked at each other and laughed with misunderstanding.
They then decided to contact Amel after the cooking show was over. It does not take long to cook fried rice, let alone the ingredients that Ryan brought were all cut and washed clean and immediately ready to plunge into the pan.
When he was about to pick up the phone to contact Amel, Alex's phone suddenly rang first and Amel's name was on the screen.
"Your whole life is Mel..."
"Lex, you're in the apartment, right? I'm going there, just a moment again until," said Amel as he pleased.
"Yes Mel kebe." Alex's words were cut for the second time, but this time it was cut because Amel disconnected the call.
With a panicked face Alex rushed into the living room.
"Amel was on the phone first and he was crying again, he said he wanted to come here, back again until. You're not afraid he's misunderstood seeing you here?" cerocos Alex is in a hurry.
"Misunderstand me?" ryan did not understand.
"He misunderstood us" Alex said. She doesn't want Amel to be jealous to see her boyfriend turn out to be here and think no-no.
"If you're so scared that Amel thinks we're dating, I'm gonna go. I don't mean to make you uncomfortable" Ryan said with a disappointed look.
Alex who was panicking now even confused to hear Ryan's words.
"Why us? Aren't you and Amel dating?"
Now it's Ryan's turn to be confused. Still with a look of surprise and confusion Ryan said, "Who's dating Amel?"
Not yet finished the problem of misunderstanding that has just been created suddenly Alex's apartment bell has rang and the sound of Amel calling from outside.
