Yuan Lu had still confined himself in the room since his return with Xue He. The sound of knocking on the door that kept ringing was completely unheeded. He prefers to lie behind a pillow. Enjoy the tears that keep coming out as if the bus does not stop.
Rui kept knocking on the door and gave some threat to Yuan Lu to break down the room door. There was no response at all, but she did not give up until her cousin's sister actually showed herself.
“A-Yuan, come out or I kick your room door?” furious Rui, but did not also get an answer.
“Tell me what happened? Why do you keep confining yourself in the room? It's ten o'clock, you have to go to campus!” rui Omel. Unfortunately, his words were completely ignored by Yuan Lu.
Rui who had a bad temper finally really looked for a way to open the door of Yuan Lu's room. Unfortunately, what flashed inside his head back then only broke down the door.
When Rui almost kicked the door, she suddenly remembered that she still had a spare key in the house. He quickly went downstairs and looked for the spare key that was always kept in Zhu's room.
“Me!” rui said when he managed to find Yuan Lu's room key in Zhu's bookcase. He immediately ran towards Yuan Lu's room and had prepared many questions that his cousin had to answer.
However, Rui's footsteps suddenly came to a halt when she heard a faint sound of laughter from inside Yuan Lu's room. He stuck his ear to the door to make sure the sound was right coming from inside or just misheard. Rui frowned while putting on a confused face when she heard a male voice from inside her cousin's room.
“You're still a crybaby, huh? Indeed what good is it to cry all night just because of men?” said the man.
“Shut! If you came just to mock me, better just go home!” yelp Yuan Lu with a hoarse voice finished crying.
The man laughed, “If I go home now, how can I make sure you eat the food or throw it away.”
Slowly Rui moved away from the door and confirmed the position of her glasses. His originally panicked face slowly began to look relaxed. He also locked up his intention of forcibly opening the door and chose to go to the first floor.
...***...
Yuan Lu sat on the bed with disheveled hair, a nightgown still attached to his body, and both eyes. While the man who was talking to him sat at the window while waiting for Yuan Lu to finish the food he brought.
“You want, Yukihira?” the Tawal Yuan Lu.
“No, \*\*\*\*\* eating me lost time seeing your situation more like a frustrated person and could die at any time,” Yukihira said.
Hearing Yukihira's words made Yuan Lu growled. He threw the pillow next to him towards Yukihira. Not enough with pillows, he also threw some dolls on the mattress.
Yukihira chuckles, “I go first! See you later, Mr. Princess.”
Yuan Lu got up from the bed as Yukihira jumped from the window. But his expression changed when he saw a ladder attached to the balcony of the room. His face instantly turned flat and cussed Yukihira with some rude swearing.
“Sorry I am worried,” Yuan Lu said as he saw Yukihira laughing amusedly at him.
“What's with your face? Wrong vein?” ketus Yuan Lu's.
Rui chuckled and walked over to her cousin's sister sitting on the balcony chair, “Not out all night, not having breakfast, not even paying attention to my call. But easily comply with others. My pride feels tarnished,” Rui quipped.
“Who is that boy?” ask Rui again.
Yuan Lu groaning accompanied by a small whisper, “Yukihira Zen.”
“Lecture?”
“Only small restourant owners near campus.”
Rui nodded a few times upon hearing Yuan Lu's reply. But his smile did not stop when he recalled the conversation Yuan Lu and Rui had just a moment ago. So funny and so loose. Of the many men close to his cousin, only this time did anyone dare to mock Yuan Lu so.
"Say, what do you want, brother?" tukas Yuan Lu's. He knew very well that Rui was not a person who easily paid attention to others.
"Nothing, just worried that you're killing yourself." Rui secured his sitting position, ignoring Yuan Lu's face which did not show any expression.
Rui reached into something in her suit pocket. He gave Yuan Lu a piece of ticket and paper envelope.
"For what?" asked Yuan Lu in astonishment.
"Your mother called last night, she asked for help to prepare a plane ticket so you could go to Japan" Rui said.
Yuan Lu just smiled taking the plane ticket. He missed both his parents. The departure schedule is this weekend. He got up from his chair and opened the closet.
Rui flinched looking at Yuan Lu's expression which changed drastically from grim to cheerful. He asked why Yuan Lu's mood had suddenly changed and the answer he heard was truly shocking.
"I wanted to go to Yukihira's restaurant and ask her to give me a lot of snacks during my time in Japan" Yuan Lu said.
Rui flabbergasted. Apparently the cause of Yuan Lu's mood changing was Yukihira. Really, this cousin of his is really hard to guess. He gently scrunched his forehead, and said, "Can I come to Yukihira's place?"
Yuan Lu's two hands immediately stopped looking for clothes in the closet and turned towards Rui. His mind as it wandered around the memory, usually Rui never cared where and with whom he went.
"Why should you come? You can cook for yourself" Yuan Lu said.
"Little sister, can anyone who can cook not go to a restaurant?"
Yuan Lu seemed to think a little. He confirmed Rui's words then nodded with a small laugh, "Alright, I allow it."
Rui brandished her thumb as she walked out of Yuan Lu's room. "I'm waiting downstairs, yeah. Don't take a long shower."
"You are my mother to tell me not to shower too long" Yuan Lu grumbled.
