Drama Two Friends



It rained thinly half an hour ago, and it seemed that he had no intention of falling more or stopping. Kalea opened a sliding door in her room that was connected to the balcony. Cold immediately slapped the surface of his body's skin that was open considering he was only wearing an oversize white shirt with shorts that were not even visible, sinking behind the oversize shirt he was wearing. 


Kalea walked out, ignoring the growing cold as the wind suddenly blew louder, as if she held a grudge against Kalea. From where he stands now, Kalea can see the condition of Karel's room is still bright. Understandably, it is now only eight o'clock at night and the man is usually busy playing games on his favorite computer. 


Earlier, after exchanging phone numbers with Gavin and the man resigned, Kalea had met with Karel. The rancid boy had just returned (from nowhere) and was about to put his car into the house when he saw Gavin's car leaving their residential area. From the gaze that the man let out as his head poked out from the car window, Kalea knew Karel looked dislikeful of Gavin's presence. Evident from Karel's subsequent actions where the man just drove his car into the courtyard area after the gate was opened from the inside, ignoring Kalea who was still standing in front of the fence of his house with a look of astonishment.


"Well, why else, anyway? Angry because I didn't call for a pick-up?" Kalea Mumbles. She had tried to contact Karel, but none of her dozens of phones were picked up by the man. Even the dozens of messages he sent were completely unrequited. Never reply, just read no. Kalea is convinced the man is online. 


Is Karel angry with her? But because of what? Because he didn't call to get picked up? Was the man waiting for him during his meeting with Gavin and became angry when he saw Kalea coming home with Gavin instead? Butwhy? Why should Karel be angry with her?


Finally, tired of guessing for himself, Kalea stepped closer to the house of Karel. It was reckless when he crossed over to the balcony of Karel's room which was fenced high enough. Just a little misstep, there is a thin body can fall slammed down and he will end up being Kalea geprek. 


After painstakingly carrying herself across, Kalea finally managed to stand in front of the glass door of Karel's room. But unfortunately he could not see what the rancid boy was doing because the bone-white curtains that wrapped the large glass door were tightly closed. 


"Tumben very well the curtains are closed. Usually also opened wide so that you can enjoy Julia again sports night!" Kalea Gerrutu. Feeling surprised and annoyed because usually Karel will leave the curtains open to be able to look at July, about the opposite side of their house who used to sport the night with super tight clothes. 


"Karellllll!!!!!" Kalea was in a row, so she banged on the glass door in front of her. It would be foolish for his voice to be heard by all the inhabitants of the complex. Let alone. He just said that Karel locked it outside so he couldn't get in. Let that rancid boy get angry.


"Open up!!!!!" It's banging stronger. But until her hands had turned red and her voice was almost hoarse, Karel did not reveal his nose at all.


"I swear, I swear! Karelllll openaaaaa!!!!" Kalea shouted for the last time, before finally giving up and choosing to crouch down, looking at the large glass door before her wistfully. 


He stayed in that position for a few minutes. His legs had started to tingle, but Kalea had absolutely no intention of moving from there. No, before Karel came out and explained to him why the man had been silencing him since this afternoon. 


Somehow in the minute to how, right after Kalea got up to her feet, the glass door in front of her opened, revealing the figure of Karel who was only wearing a towel wrapped around her lower body. Water dripped from her hair that was still half wet, down the neck curve until a few drops fell down her exposed chest and abdomen. 


Kalea did not care at all about the appearance of Karel. Thirteen years they were friends, this was not the first time Kalea had seen Karel bare-chested like this. So instead of shouting hysterically or blushing shyly, Kalea stepped forward, getting closer to Karel who was now looking at her in confusion.


"Heh, what are you doing?" karel asked while stepping back because Kalea was still continuing to step forward, as if he was eager to erode the distance between the two of them. 


Karel continued to walk backwards, until finally his butt landed on the mattress, and then Kalea stopped.


"What do you want?!" karel shouted hysterically. He was afraid that the mist covered his exposed chest. It was so horrendous that it made Kalea grunt.


"I don't lust after you!" Calea Cibir. His hands were crossed in front of his chest while his eyes were squeaking dislike.


"Yes continues? Forward forward so what does it mean?" 


"I want an explanation!"


"What is anjir? Don't be weird!"


"Why did you get me out of this afternoon? Phone not picked up, wa not bales. Are you angry with me?" Kalea nyerocos while Karel could only silently listen while gawking in disbelief. 


Karel just woke up. He was exhausted after playing tennis with friends during his college days while waiting for Kalea to call to be picked up. So after knowing that Kalea had safely arrived home, he immediately went up to the room and lay down on the bed. Either because she was so tired or because her head was too full, Karel fell asleep. That's why he didn't know that Kalea sent him a lot of messages and even called. Karel did not expect Kalea would think he was angry at the girl.


"Java!" 


Karel exhaled slowly. Before answering Kalea's question, he got up from the bed, walked towards the wardrobe and picked up a black t-shirt. Without the ba-bi-bu, he's wearing that shirt. Then as he was about to pull the towel wrapped around his waist, he heard Kalea screaming hysterically.


"What do you want?! Crazy one!!"


"What the hell, Kal? My guy's got pants on!" Karel turned nagging. The towel he had originally worn had already moved away, landing aesthetically on the bed. Let him later get scorned Mother for not putting a towel in the right place.


"Something suddenly to pull the towel!"


"I wouldn't take off my towel if I didn't wear pants! You think I'm a pervert?"


"Lo who was angry was unclear! Why, anyway?" Karel sat on the bed, grabbed a TV remote from the nightstand and then turned on the newscast.


Kalea walked over with a grunt. His hands were light as he clasped Karel's shoulders to have the man shift his seat.


"sick! Very good with KDRT." Although while nagging, but Karel still shifted his body so that Kalea could sit.


"Why, anyway? Why have you just been nagging? Then why did the lady go through the balcony try? How many times have I told you, it's dangerous! Is it hard to get through the front door? Not five minutes if you walk from your house to here."


"It's me who wants to nag you! Why are you even ranting?!"


Karel took a breath. His head still felt heavy due to sleep. If he joined in to argue with Kalea, the one with his head would break. So with all the patience he still had, Karel relented. He let Kalea get her whole head out.


"Yaudah, please tell me why you're angry?" ask Karel in the softest tone possible.


"Why are you chuckin' me?" there was a thin mist enveloping Kalea's eyeballs as the girl asked.


"When the hell am I cuekin lo?"


"From this afternoon until now!"


"Gue overslept, Kale. There is no I cuekin lo. There's no luck either." Karel answered patiently.


"But my phone wasn't picked up! Are you sleeping to death until you can't pick up my phone?"


"The mouth says! I don't know, I'm silent."


Silent then. Karel had no idea what Kalea was thinking inside her head at the moment. Either the girl is trying to digest the explanation and then nods her head of understanding or the girl is looking for other reasons to continue whining and nagging herself.


"I'm sorry for making you feel diced. But my suwerrrrr has absolutely no intention of that." Karel raised his finger that formed the letter V, looking at Kalea who was sitting next to him with the most innocent gaze. Wishing the girl would soon melt down and they could end this drama right now.


"There's a condition."


"Huh?"


"There's a condition if I want to apologize."


"What?"


"Buy me kinderjoy. Eleven."


"Buseeeett. Itumah is his name!"


"Well, if you want, that's okay!"


"Yes, I bought it. Go back and get the pants!"


"I'm wearing pants!" Kalea suddenly stood up, flicking her oversized sweatshirt in order to show her the above knee shorts she was wearing.


"God! Get off! It's not polite to open up like that!" Karel panicked, he hurriedly told Kalea to lower back her clothes. Though he also could not see anything because Kalea just lifted her shirt a little until her shorts were visible.


Looking at Karel's usual reaction, Kalea chuckled. This way he was relieved. At least he knew Karel was not silencing him. Kalea's mood had returned to good, so she happily grabbed Karel by the arm, leading the man to fulfill his promise of buying a kinderjoy.


"Let's go! Buy kinderjoy, eleven!"
