Beby stepped half-run. As she moved, she almost shouted if she did not cross paths with one of the teachers in the corridor. Beby smiled politely and then moved back as quickly as possible following Maia who was in the toilet.

Upon entering the room containing several cubicles of the restroom, Beby just stormed towards Maia who he found standing in front of the sink. While jumping around a little, the woman exclaimed cheerfully. "May....."

Maia who turned away from the mirror, looked at Beby with a puzzled look. "What's the hell yelling at that, Beb?"

So happy, the voice that Beby chanted almost resembles a scream. "Gue was anu Primus!"

"Anu what?" Maia could not help her curiosity. "Lo calm down a little bit can talk about it. Breathe in.. exhale....."

With his chest slightly puffed up, Beby took a deep breath and then exhaled slowly according to Maia's instructions. The woman did the act repeatedly until she felt a little calm.

"Okay... What are you saying?" ask Maia next.

Beby bit his lips and then triggered them straight. "Gue was anuin Primus."

Kontan Maia gaped at Beby's words which surprised her. "Huhuh? Lo crazy it's anuin Primus."

"Lo's been tarnished?" whispered later.

Beby shook his head ignoring his friend's strange prejudices. "That's not what I mean, Mai..."

Maia breathed a sigh of relief as her shoulders slid down. "That's circuit. So what do you mean?"

Beby's heart is flowery. His eyes are full of love. Her smile now could not be more beautiful than this one displayed. "Gue.. earlier...."

"Yes... what?" Maia was getting impatient.

Beby's voice rose again and sounded straightforward. "Gue said he liked Primus."

Seeing the female behavior in front of him, Maia quickly closed Beby's mouth. "Don't yell too Beb, no one will hear. Just be ashamed."

"Gue doesn't know what to do, Mai."

"Gue was really embarrassed." continued Beby as he clenched both hands in the air.

Maia shook her hands in front of Beby's face. "It is your own fault. You're crazy it turns out."

That statement did not offend Beby at all. The woman looked more and more happy. "Yes.. I'm crazy! Crazy for Primus!"

Maia folded her hands in front of her chest. "So how?"

"What's the way, Mai?"

Maia was gripping seriously. "Primus answered what?"

A few seconds before Beby answered quietly. "I don't answer anything."

Maia made a sound with her two fingers while turning her body back in front of the mirror. "Sign this,"

Beby followed at Maia's side. "What mark?"

Maia looked at Beby's face from the large mirror before her while answering. "Suppose he doesn't respond to your words."

Beby then frowned while rinsing his hands with water from the sink shower. "No. Although Primus didn't answer anything, he just smiled at me."

While tidying up her ribbon tie, Maia could not bear to not interrupt. "Smiling means a lot of lethargy."

It wasn't Beby that he wasn't optimistic about his feelings for Primus. With a smile, the woman chimed in her friend's comments. "But I'm sure that Primus' smile means he gave me the green light to keep deletin him."

Lula's chest instantly sipped. His heart was filled with a feeling of uneasiness. He was very unexpected with the conversation he had just heard from where he was standing in one of the restroom rooms. Lula deduced from the conversation that Beby actually wanted Primus' heart.

After the sound of the toilet door was opened and Lula knew for sure the two women who were chatting had already left from there, Lula's trembling hands pulled the doorknob. "Gue can't be jealous. Remember La, you're just Primus's best friend." he muttered to himself as he stepped out of the washroom.

Lula tried to sigh but the relief did not really approach her feelings. "Lo should smile. There is no love. Throw away the feeling of the village."

Just as Lula pulled the door of the toilet room open, suddenly the woman gasped for Primus who was standing at the door carrying a bucket full of foamy water. Primus intends to clean up his final destination which inevitably leaves many traces of dirty shoes in the corridor right in front of the toilet room.

"Lula...." Shocked Primus while lowering the bucket to the floor.

Lula gulps. "Primus. You're making me surprised."

Primus at that moment frowned. "I don't feel like I'm kagetin lo. Lo times who scolded me."

Lula stepped forward. "I want to go to class."

Primus, who caught something else in the Lula's countenance, intercepted the woman's steps before she could make it across her. "Lula...your face why is that sad?"

Primus could still see what Lula was trying to hide. Despite trying to cover up her grief, Lula could not trick her best friend. Maybe because Primus already knew himself too well.

Lula's gurgle was very unsettled. His eyes were not focused on Primus. "Who is sad too. Don't sotoy lo, Prim."

Primus was still standing with the mop stick he was holding tightly. "Don't lie to me, La. You know that I'm the one who knows you best."

"So no matter how great you hide that sadness, I can definitely see." explained Primus without smiling. He looked into Lula's eyes in earnest.

Lula pretended to tidy up her hair as fidgety continued to be noticed by Primus. "What the hell? I'm not sad."

Primus clicked his tongue. Clearly he could feel the sadness that was implied from the innocent face of his best friend. Primus drew near the distance and then spoke calmly. "My same story why are you so sad?"

"Oh I know...." Primus left the mop stick propped up in the bucket. His hand was clinging to his chin while looking at Lula's heart.

In front of Primus, Lula wondered. Did Primus know that he was sad because of his broken heart? Did Primus now know everything, the feeling he buried in the dark corner of his heart so that Primus could not see it? Really, Lula could not help but feel ashamed if Primus really knew of that feeling.

"Oh, La. No more drama. Be honest about how you feel about me!" firmly Primus with a pair of preoccupied eyes.

Lula was silent for a moment in great surprise. Did Primus really know about this feeling?

"Mm sure...." Primus probed Lula's extremely fretful expression. "Lo's sad, can't you see I'm mopping up like this?"

Primus chuckled and Lula exhaled the breath she held for a few seconds. The woman was relieved that it was not a matter of the heart feeling that Primus was investigating. "Gue is okay. Relax, La." murmured the guy.

With a wide smile, Primus held onto Lula's shoulder full of feeling. "This punishment is small to me. You don't have to be sad anymore. I am so happy."

Primus pulled his hand back while sneaking at Lula. "Please love me smile dong, La. Let me clean up the corridor."

Lula smiled to hold back her tears that wanted to fall. His smile does not mean he is happy. His smile does not mean he is happy. The smile she displayed now was to be able to hide the pain, the wound, the pain, that Primus would never know. Lula here is trying to cover everything.

Primus made his two fingers resemble a gun while smiling. "That dong."

Lula slowly walked away from there, leaving Primus behind. In the seconds before Lula's back vanished from sight, the man glimmered meaningfully. "Gue can't see you're sad, La. I love you."
