"Yohan, who's coming?" ask Eleeya.
"We have to go up first, you said yourself that it's stuffy and stuffy" Yohan replied as she carried Eleeya back upstairs.
They passed from the barn and now sat in the living room.
"Yohan, are they cops?"eleeya asked with a worried look on her face.
"..."
The sharp eyes of the man were now just staring at the anxious girl before him.
"What if they're cops?" Yohan.
Eleeya gasped in surprise, she asked why?Is he out of his mind?He's a criminal, a murderer, if the police come then everything will be done.
I won't be able to see her again after that.
"You sick?Your face is pale" Yohan said
Huh uh?Was he not panicking at all?He looks so ordinary, what is it that I'm here that's excessive like a madman, he muttered again.
"You're not thinking about anything, are you, El?"
"Ah,t-no Yohan"
"Good, and as a reminder to yourself El, I will say this" Yohan said, drawing closer to Eleya's ear.
Eleeya just silently waited for what Yohan was about to say at that moment.
"We are the same, I am the killer and so are you" whispered Yohan to make the listener goosebumps.
Eleeya rounded her eyes, her body trembled, she forgot that she had also killed someone due to Yohan, not only was Yohan going to finish, she would have the same fate if the police caught them.
"I-I'm scared" said Eleeya quietly.
Yohan looked at the frightened girl, she carried the girl in her arms, giving her warmth in the sense that everything would be fine.
"I told you, listen to me then you'll be fine" Yohan said.
"..."
"Ah one more thing, I want you to remember this, one.two.two.one" said Yohan suddenly.
Eleeya was aghast, what was the meaning of her words, what was the meaning behind the numbers?
"Ah Yohan, what was that?" ask Eleiya slowly.
"That's a password to hide" Yohan said with a chuckle.
Eleeya just kept quiet, she did not question her anymore, because she had been told to remember her then she had to remember her, that was the thought of Eleeya at that time.
"Do you want to go for a walk today?" ask Yohan.
"Yes, I want to" Eeeya replied quickly.
"Pfft, why are you always so cute" Yohan said as she pinched the girl's cheeks.
Eleeya rubbed her cheeks reddened, whether it was because of Yohan's pinch or because of her embarrassment towards Yohan, her feelings both mixed into one.
"How about we go to the cinema" Yohan said and was immediately answered with a nod and a twinkle of Eleeya's eyes.
Yohan only smiled when she saw her girl was so happy just because she was invited to watch the cinema.
"Well, get ready then" said Yohan.

Rui entered her room with mixed feelings, she deliberately went home quickly because she felt dizzy.
He drops himself on the bed and stares at the screen of his cell phone, trying to call Eleeya's number but is no longer active.
"Where is this kid really?"rui Gumam.
Rui sat down and leaned her back against the wall while closing her eyes while thinking.
"I'm sure there must be something hidden by Yohan, why I don't like her" Rui grumbled alone.
"He could have fooled Alana and everyone, but not me" she grumbled again.
"Huh"
Rui sighed and lay back down.
He held his head.
"I can die faster if I keep doing this" he said.
DRRTI...DRRTTTS
Rui fumbled in every direction to look around for her vibrating phone.
His face was still facing the pillow and his eyes were still closed.
Until finally the phone he was looking for met, he saw the screen of his phone, it was almost night.
"Ah, I overslept" he muttered as he pressed the button to receive the call.
"Hallo's mother"
"Hallo Rui, why did you pick up your phone for so long" said a voice over there.
"I was sleeping ma'am" Rui replied as she massaged her forehead.
"Are you working too hard?Mom and Dad were waiting for your call but you didn't call, so mom called you first"
"I'm sorry ma'am, it's just that my work has been a bit a lot these days"
"Yes, the most important thing is to take care of your health, son, have you eaten?"
"..."
"Rui?"
"Yes ma'am, I've been eating quietly, you guys take good care of yourself there too"
After chatting for a moment with the mother, Rui put her phone down and held her stomach that sounded.
"Ah, I think I should eat something" he muttered.
Just about to get out of his bed, heard the sound of a bell ringing.Rui who thought anyone who came rushed to open the door.
Rui was a little surprised, because it turned out that the one who came to his apartment was Alana.
"Oh hi Lana, please come in"
"Well" Alana answered and went inside immediately.
Alana sat down on the sofa and took out the bag she was carrying.
"I thought you were gonna need this, so I brought it" said Alana, who pulled the contents out of the bag she was carrying.
A box of pizza and two boxes of rice box complete with lemon tea are now served by Alana.
Alana was like Rui's savior from the famine that was sweeping her.
"What you've been doing since, you haven't even changed your clothes" Alana said.
Rui scratched her head and chuckled slightly to cover up her embarrassment.
"Bring and after that we eat"
Without the need to linger, Rui immediately rushed to the bathroom, and after that they ate her food together.
"Well, thank you, you know that I'm hungry" said Rui, who satiated after finishing most of his pizza and rice boxes.
"No problem" replied Alana.
"Tumben you came by here, brought some more food"
"Yes, I just thought of you, and it turns out to be true my guess, you must be in trouble" said Alana sipping her lemon tea.
"..."
"Hei Rui, as your friend I want to ask you something"
Rui just turned her face at the girl, and her gaze seemed to say "What's the matter?".
"What's really making you so difficult right now?Our case or about Eleeya?"alana said with an intimidating look.
Obviously it makes Rui jerked in shock, to be honest he alone does not know what makes it difficult at this time.
"What do you mean?"Rui.
The girl sighed as if annoyed by the reply Rui gave.
"Listen, as your partner, I'll help you do anything while it's true, if you really intend to find your friend's whereabouts, we can do it,but at least let us focus on the work that is given to us first" said Alana.
To be honest, there was nothing wrong with Alana, I had to put aside my personal affairs with my work, but why it was so difficult, every time I wanted to focus on my work, there were things related to Eleeya,as if Eleeya is connected to all of her, it should not be allowed to leave, Rui thought.
"Do you love that girl Rui?"
"...Pardon?"
Rui was really surprised to hear the question posed by Alana.
His expression was so unexpected, someone would ask him that, his pupils were trembling with a faint mouth,then he was not long bowed as if thinking of something made the person who asked just frown and bewildered.
Flashback on*
Rui's Pov
That day I remember, I was still wearing a high school uniform walking side by side with the cute girl who was wearing her Junior High School uniform.
I saw around her arm there was a bruise, but I let her go.
The girl tried to smile in front of me, but I knew she was covering up her sadness.
In fact, as a friend I should always pay my attention and comfort her when I do, but I never do.
Maybe that's why he never opened up to me for all his problems, I've been friends with him since childhood.
He used to be a very cheerful boy, so I liked him and became his friend, but all that gradually changed when his parents died.
The boy became cold and gloomy, but I remained friends with him because he always tried not to show his side like that in front of me.
Until we grew up and I had a lot of friends back then, I was always making fun of my friend for being friends with a weird girl like her, I could still hold her back,but on the other hand I thought to stay away from him, but I also felt very sorry for him.Thus I finally decided to remain friends with him because of the taste of my mother.
At that time he said that he liked me, I was really surprised at that time.
I saw her as just a little sister who should be given more attention because she was lonely, not as a woman.
I refused her straight away, I saw her face reddened and shocked, but she still smiled at me, so I felt bad at the time.
Until then, it started to change for me.
He was more closed, and his gloomy face was shown to me more often.
I also felt that our relationship was more strained.
When I went to college, I saw more bruises on his body or his face, he did cover it, but I still realized it. It was the actions of his uncle and aunt, I know that.
And just like before, I can only comfort him with words even though I myself realize that he does not need them.
My feelings are now haunted by my guilt at her, I always think of her until now, plus I also miss her face, the feeling of tightness when remembering the smile she always gave me first, she said,now there is no more, more upset when thinking about how if he was happy with another man.
I don't know what this feeling is.

"Rui?"
The silence was split when Alana called out her name.
"Ah yeah?Sorry I seem a little dizzy Lana" Rui said as she massaged her forehead.
"..."
Alana breathed for a moment.
"Alright, you have to rest, I'll go home" he stood up to get home.
"Alana" call Rui.
"Yes" said Alana allowing her views on Rui.
"Thank you"
When Alana's cheeks met red, then she pulled the corner of her lips up and nodded her head slowly, then she went home leaving Rui with all her thoughts that were directed to Eeeya.
