FREAK GIRL AND PRINCE BROTHERS

Episode 26 - GROUP WORK THAT CHANGES FEELINGS Part 2

Miwon had just come to bring me a bag of plastic containing a lot of packaged rice. He entered his room where his friends were relaxing. There are those who watch television, read comics, and read Indonesian books while browsing.

“Wah, food is coming! Food coming!” Danu no longer reads the comics. Now he focused on the rice wrap released by Miwon. Afika and Hami also started to notice.

“I bought krawu rice. Typical food from Gresik!” miwon said as she handed out the packaged rice to her friends. They eat it with gourmand.

“We got what theme anyway?” asked Miwon while chewing the food.

“Poems. We have to find ten questions about poetry in the form of multiple choice,” Afika said it by opening an Indonesian book. “This is where I found out a lot about poetry. We just have to choose the answer.

Hami stopped eating, “We don't look for problems in books only, Fik. How about looking for things from the internet too? I've found some nih.”

Danu clapped his hand. “Well, how about we take five questions from the book and five more questions from the internet?”

The four of them thought for a moment. Before long Miwon pointed while nodding his head.

“Good! Yeah, great idea!”

“Boring here if we only do the task,” complained Danu. “Won, you promised to take us for a walk.”

“Oh, that's for sure. Later in the night we will enjoy the scenery while eating on the side of the road,” exclaimed Miwon while eating his last feed.

...***...

Miwon just parked the car. The three friends got out of the car. They looked in amazement. Lots of shops lined up there. There are also a lot of people hanging out around the roundabout to eat.

Miwon brought them to order food. Miwon, Afika, and Hami ordered chicken satay and iced tea. Danu ordered fried rice and warm tea. They sat on the mat to wait for orders.

“The hours are a bit cold yes,” Danu said while embracing her own body. “Know this I will bring a jacket from home nih.”

“Maybe it will be rainy season soon,” said Hami. “So this is the GKB roundabout?” Miwon nodded. Then he pointed at the banyan tree in the middle of the garden.

“If you guys sit there during the day, uuh. the cool is amazing. The tree there is very shady.”

“But anyway if the night of the tree looks scary,” chirped Danu, thinking of the many fine creatures that nest there.

“See ajah! Many people gathered in the park. The tree is not as horror as you think.”

Then came the food and drink they ordered. They eat with gourmand. They eat deliciously and occasionally chat about the beauty of Gresik at night. The number of light cars and motorcycles passing by, fruit sellers who are still many customers, also street vendors who are still selling and the number of buyers until late at night.

...***...

“Aah, full once!” yelled Danu while raising both hands. Miwon gave a sign to be quiet. We've entered the house. But the house looks empty. Miwon said that his father and driver had gone to bed first. At least we spoke with a slight understatement so as not to wake them both up.

“You just sleep in my room,” Miwon pointed at me and Hami. “Then me and Danu will sleep in the next room,” after that me and Hami walk into the room. Hami just collapsed on the bed.

Meanwhile, as usual I still can't sleep. I knew for a long time that I had insomnia. So then

even though it was twelve o'clock exactly, my eyes were still wide open. I sat down in front of the study table. My eyes were pointing towards the upright frame on the study table.

I watched him by putting my head on the table. The pigura has a photo in it. A man wearing this shirt must be his father Miwon and Edelweis. The beautiful woman next to him was his mother.

The two little children standing in front of them must be Edelweis and Miwon. Their faces all looked happy. In addition there is a small frame again next to the previous frame. I looked at it carefully.   

‘This is my photo with Miwon on school birthday?’ I looked at that photo for a long time. I remember him asking for one of my pictures that turned towards him. After looking at the photo, my eyes looked around the room again.

“I was in Miwon's room,” I muttered a little. I watched the posters of boyband ‘Suju’ attached to the wall. He really likes Korean boyand. I stepped towards the bookshelf.

It turns out that Miwon really likes doraemon comics. A lot of times I found a serial comic on his bookshelf. And I found the book I gave you. I opened one of his comics and read it while sitting on the bed. I was glued for a moment.

“I was on a bed that often slept.” I regained my senses. I just realized that my hand was wiping the bed. “What am I doing?!” hysterical scream. Someone hit me with a pillow.

I immediately stepped into the kitchen. But I saw something strange. The lights in the kitchen are on! Is there someone from the house who is still awake besides me? Is that person Miwon's father? I immediately stepped foot while on my tiptoes slowly.

Looks like someone is cooking something on the pot. The man looked up and looked at me. So do I. We were both surprised.

“You!” yells. I laughed a little while scratching my head. “I think ghost!” yell again. I immediately showed a flat face expression. Miwon laughed. “Huahaha. I'm kidding! I know it was you!” I only responded with a manyun. I see he's boiling instant noodles. “You want?” bargained for.

I'm shaking.

“Still hungry huh?” my many. He nodded his head while pouring noodles into the bowl. I followed him walking towards the middle room. He ate noodles while watching western movies on tv.

“You can't sleep right?” tanyanya.

“Insomnia,” my answer is short. He still eats while watching tv.

“I know. That's why you have panda eyes and always sleep in the middle of the lesson,” he said while still pointing in front of the tv. My chest was pounding for a moment. Miwon has always been like this. Guys who always pay attention and understand what is done by the people around them. Without me realizing that I was very happy to be friends with him. If you recall, he was quite instrumental in helping my life.

Before I knew him, my life was a bit bleak. I just feel considered being at home. Yeah, only papa and mama don't see me so weird. Mayang too, before he lived in our house anyway. But I am grateful that Mayang will get along with me again.

Other than with Hami and Timmy, I can't make a close relationship with the other friends. I know how much effort I put in. But ever since Miwon came, he started to step into my life. Trying to understand me. He helped me with every way to get on good terms with friends. Moreover, he also made me get close to Edelweis.

Miwon also brought me to realize my deepest dream of meeting me with the white equestrian prince I had long dreamed of. He also has a way to change my appearance for the better. Unknowingly, she was always there in my time of need for someone to help me move through life. He always understood me.

Why did I never give him a chance to open myself up? I hurt her feelings by being her sister's boyfriend.

How do I really feel? I don't know. All I know is that the thump always shows up in the present moment. But before that I was very comfortable being around him without having to think about what to talk about.

I was so happy to hear him tell a story. I also like to see strange movements. I'm glad he's always tailing me. I really like it when he's near me. So what does all this mean?

“Fik,” he started calling me. Miwon looked at me while frowning. His hand rubbed my cheek. My chest felt shaken for a moment. “Why are you crying?”

I was surprised to hear that. Immediately I wiped the tears that flowed down my cheeks. Then I remembered the thirst that had been taking hold of me. I immediately stepped up to pick up the water bottle inside the refrigerator.

Miwon also walked towards the kitchen. He was washing the bowl. I try not to pay attention to it. I sat on the dining chair and sipped water slowly. Soon Miwon was also sitting next to me.

“So you why, Fik?” tanyanya. I just shook my head. After drinking it out, I filled the glass with water again. Miwon chuckled to see me drinking water. I filled the water in the glass again. “If you drink like that, you can be bloated stomach,” I don't care.

I realized that panic symptoms were attacking me. I just got caught crying and there was nothing I could do but drink! I also know that drinking this much water makes my stomach bloated. I drank some water while glancing at Miwon.

He was folding his hands on the table and putting his head on it. And he was looking at me. I'm choking.

“That's choking. Drink it slowly, Fik,” he said while taking a cellphone in his pants pocket. “Oh yes thank you for the book. I like it so much,” I just nodded my head. I thought he liked books that smelled like boy bands. “Try hearing this song. One of my favorite songs.

“What title?” I just feel a little curious. He started to turn on his music with a small volume and put it on the table.

“Memories.”

Even though I don't like songs that I don't understand, I want to listen to them. I listened to it while grasping the glass that was still filled with water. I also saw Miwon who had just closed his eyes.

“I always remember every incident with you. I'm grateful to remember where we were always together,” in the middle of listening to a song, Miwon said something that made me flutter a little. He soon sounded his snoring. I laughed when I saw him fall asleep.

I put the glass a little far away on the table. I folded my hands on the table and put my head on it. I smiled at Miwon who was fast asleep. I noticed her lashes and they looked long.

Miwon looks sweet while sleeping. For four minutes I watched him. Just as the song ended, I started to feel sleepy and fell asleep as well.

“I am also grateful to have met you, Miwon.”
