Love Note
_record the first two_part
Two days passed, but James was still unsettled in his nights. The question of who the guy who was with Helen yesterday and what kind of relationship they had was.
He sat quietly in front of his laptop in his study. At 00:30 and he has not been able to fall asleep, not even sleepy. Is Helen the type of girl who likes to change girlfriends? Suddenly the question appeared in his mind. But maybe it's just a friend, the girl likes to be friends. That's right, he likes to be friends. His little heart denied that. He was sure it was not Helen's true nature, it did not match Helen's character.
Pip's! Pip's!
James's phone rang, vibrating patterned on his desk. James took it, it looks written ‘AYAH’ on mini LCD on the front of his phone.
James was silent thinking for a while and then unfolded Ericson Z series. An old phone used by his mother. And until now he only uses the cellphone even though many times his sister and father asked to replace it with a smartphone today and save the cellphone his mother's legacy.
“Iya Yah?” James said after the phone was attached to his right ear.
“You're asleep? Must be there at midnight, huh? Forgive me ya” dad sounds James' dad from that little speaker.
“Ga What Well, I haven't slept yet, where is dad now?”
“Dad's in Munich tomorrow Friday dad's home”
“Then what's the problem?”
“Begin Jem, I want to ask you” James' father's answer made James worried, there will always be problems that come if his father asks for help from him.
“What is it?”
“Tomorrow the day after I had an invitation from my father's colleague and because I couldn't go home quickly, I asked you to come, yes, the problem is not good if only by phone and only send parcels via courier. How do you want, right?”
“What event? Whose event?” A heavy tone had already begun to be heard from James' reply.
“Daddy important club, wedding event. Just the reception ain't too official, so you just come, congratulate me on my behalf and then you can go straight away, how? You can take your sister if you want, how? You can't do it?” I heard James' father begging.
“Claudia where to go to such events. Well all right, I just need to congratulate and present on behalf of dad right? After that I left, ga pake no event know-now here right?” James was always unable to refuse his father's request.
“Really! Just like that, you can hold my words Jem, okay?” There was a note of relief from the end of the speaker.
“Hm”
“Alright, thank you very much my savior Jem”
“Come back, and beware the weather there dangerous”
“Yes, well then see you on Friday” voice off James' father.
James is back folding his phone. Really troublesome. It would be a big deal, he thought. The event was obviously big and the possibility of meeting some children of his father's other colleagues was also huge. Not to mention he would be detained by many people who wanted to take his father's sympathy through him, that means it's the same as he can't just go away and again what would happen if he met Helen there? What's he got to say? Everything he has worked for so long will be in vain. This made James more frustrated.
Suddenly it came to his mind, what if he came with someone as an excuse to immediately leave that place? Yeah! A good idea, he just needs someone as an excuse so as not to linger in the event later. And that's obviously Rika.

James explained all his problems and then asked Rika to come with him.
“Not so, but at least I don't need to interact with a lot of people right? I'm pretty autistic towards you, okay?” James was clear about his idea.
“Hm” looks Rika thinks weighing “You don't want to linger there because you don't want to meet someone huh?”
“Ayolah Rik, Jemgan start this thing again”
“I chose pass” saut Rika who started doing muscle stretching.
“Rika, I rarely ask for your help. Or do you want something to just mention, how? Help me this time alone” whining James.
“Just yesterday you asked me to attend all your courses for three days, then asked me to take you to buy you a gift for bi’ Inah, and now you say all that rarely?”
“Yes I mean to ask you to accompany me to an event” James replied with a half embarrassed smile, “You just came with me, no need to do anything and we will disappear in 60 seconds, okay?”
Rika stopped her warming up, though, he looked at James then stroked breath “You saw me” he said then with a half resigned face “from top to bottom I would never be right in such an event” closed which then continued with the warming that was once broken.
“you're just right, what's wrong with you? If you're wrong and embarrassing, I'll never ask you”
Rica was still warming up regardless of James.
“Or Don't-Don't you be in the mind huh? You're not confident, are you?” Guess James then.
Soon Rika turned to look at James “No!” James' words touched him.
“When not why don't you want to? If not for less Pe-de what else?” Saut James who has started to get weapons to attack Rika's defense.
“That's because..” Rika's speech stopped for a moment “You were always like this” he continued later while shaking slowly “ alright I will come, but there are conditions. I have three requests”
“Ready! Just say I will definitely fulfill all” said James quickly because finally he can persuade Rika.
“True yes you will fulfill all?! That's your promise. You must hold your own words” Rika replied with a fluffy smile.
“Dan?”
“Eit, not now, it will be time later” said Rika increasingly sumringah “Consider just now I have a Jin with three requests”
“Why do I have a feeling something bad is going to happen, huh?” Saut James who seemed to feel sorry had agreed to all the requirements from Rika.
“OK well tomorrow you just pick me” Saut Rika who has started running.
