ELLA AND MICHAEL
You Look Different Lately!
Michael was at Jim's restaurant. After Ella leaves, Michael searches for a bus and goes to Jim's restaurant to eat and meet Jim.
At Jim's restaurant, Jim gives Michael a slice of pizza that looks stressed and has a lot of thoughts.
Michael tells Jim what happened to him. He also said that he had been suspended from work.
Michael began eating the pizza Jim had served.
“Ckckck. Jesus, friend. You look different lately.”
“Hahaha. I haven't had lunch, Jim.”
“You are good at holding hunger and stopping work. However, after you were suspended for hitting a hospital visitor, you can still eat this gluttony?”
“Hmm. It's very tasty. Your pizza is so good, Jim.”
Michael continued to chew on the pizza in his mouth, without paying attention to Jim's words.
“Friend, your wits must have hurt. Let's check.”
Jim put the back of his hand and touched Michael's eel.
“What do you think, I'm a little weird?”
“Not a little, but very strange.”
“Why can I be this weird, Jim?” ask Michael.
“VIRUS PSYCHOPATH,” replied Jim.
“Virus?”
“When Ella stabs you with a knife, the woman's psychopathic virus gets into your bloodstream, then damages your brain function.”
Jim explained that, as if it had happened to Michael.
“I almost trust you, Jim.”
Michael only nodded when he heard Jim bragging.
“I thought of writing a novel.”
“Do you know Korean from novels?” ask Michael.
“Novel? You think I'm that stupid? Haha. You want to know in Korean? Come, Michael. Time don't know?”
Jim continued to reason and groan, when Michael asked him.
“Gosh. It's been. Forgetit. Change topic. Forget.”
“Jim. I want to go play,” Michael said.
“Good. Whynot? Been a long time. Let's travel on my bike. Where are you going?” ask Jim.
“SERENGETI,” replied Michael.
“Serreng... What?”
“Gosh.”
Jim started talking to Jim about his frustration with Tom. Jim is very upset with Tom, for living in a room with him.
“He snores, grits his teeth, and farts. Everything continues to be done at once like an autistic person.”
Michael laughed out loud, as Jim began to imitate Tom in his sleep.
“I'm sure every time Tom falls asleep, all the holes in his body open. Jesus, it's so funny.”
“If you can't stand it, just sleep in the room I used to live in, Jim. Room is empty,” Michael said.
“Can I?” ask Jim.
Jim nodded his head.
Jim smiled at her.
“Omong-by, Jim. I also want to ask for your help.”
“Help?” ask Jim.
“Soal Marco, can you tomorrow...”.
“Good. I can.”
Jim cut off Michael's unfinished speech.
“I'm not done talking, Jim.”
“T need not finish and need not explain. Agree without asking and complaining, that's the loyalty of man's friendship.”
“Hahaha. Thanks, Jim. You are my best friend.”
“You prefer me or Marco?” Jim asked Michael that stupid question again.
“No need to answer, Jim. I like both. Alright. I'll go first. I pamit.”
Michael stood up from the chair, patted Jim on the shoulder and left the restaurant.
“I also like you, Michael,” muttered Jim alone.
***
At night in Ella's castle, Ella and Marco sit together and watch a cartoon series in Marco's room.
“Kak. I'm home.”
Michael's voice came into the room.
When she heard Jim coming, Ella stood up and left Marco's room.
“Can we talk?”
