Love Note

”Lo napa?” Helen asked as she saw James smiling slightly with his own glass.
”No, just another twinkle aja” replied James briefly.
”Ya. You must be the first to enter this cafe, right? Keep the distro-distro that we just came in, right?” Helen spoke with pride.
James smiles again ”not because of it” James said as he rummaged his drinking straw ”because I was able to come out alone with you” he added with a little hesitation.
”Hey, you don't think that macem-macem yeah! You're my worker, and now that status still exists. Don't get me wrong” intercepts Helen with a barrage of words.
”Iya I know” James hastily replied.
”Hey Je!” Say hello to someone who suddenly did not realize James was standing next to him while patting his shoulder.
”Axel?!” James said in shock mixed with pleasure and fear that appeared instantly.
”Axel?!” Helen was even more surprised to find Axel there.
”Eit?” Now replace Axel who was surprised to find Helen there with James.
James was surprised to find the two of them knew each other. Axel is the sole heir to the sixth largest textile company in Southeast Asia. He was born and lived in the United States until the age of 12.
He has been a close friend of James since the age of 6. When the James family was forced to move to America to easily get access to the treatment of his mother. And because their parents were close friends, James and his sister were often entrusted to Axel's place at certain times. Over time James and Claudia became like brothers that Axel had never had before.
During Junior High School and High School, Axel forced to follow James to Indonesia and attend a state school that was actually rejected by Axel's parents. And only when they graduate High School do they separate. Axel continued his studies at Melburn.
”Wah progress lu Je” Axel patted James' back ”gitu donk” he added.
”You just got home?” James asked, switching the topic.
”Wa bolos” said Axel while grinning ”oya Eit how are you?” he said hello to Helen.
”Gue all right, you?” Said Helen with a little confused to see Axel's attitude towards James ”You know each other huh?” Added later.
”What did you say? Know each other?” Axel asked with a little laugh ”he's the only friend you have, Sodara guy” Axel replied crisply while staring at James who looks agitated.
”Friend? Sodara?” Helen asked with suspicious eyes because she felt strange.
”Already. What did you mean by ditching?” James asked cutting off Axel and Helen's conversation.
Axel looked at James with a smile ”lu know wa bored there. So I played here and purposely didn't talk to you, to make a surprise. Eh even a cave that was made shocked” said Axel while glancing at Helen.
”So your dad didn't know you were coming home?” James kept the topic of conversation so as not to stray.
“Axel!“ James looked angry even in a tone that is not high.
”Sori, sori” replied Axel while raising his hand ”so how is Eit?” Ask Helen later.
”What?” Fast response Helen who is still confused with the current situation ”what do you mean lo?” he added when he saw Axel smile-smile ”we ain't nothing. He just nganterin me shopping, it's aj” replied Helen quickly denied all thoughts Axel who has not spoken.
”Wah, so now you have a car huh Je?” Axel asked spontaneously towards James. Because he knew James never wanted to buy a car when his father wanted to give a birthday gift to 17 years.
”Obviously my car is!” Saut Helen kel's. Axel's words just now it really doesn't make sense he thought. Axel is strange, clearly see the existence of James who like he knows will not be able to buy a car. Instead of a car, the motor is not necessarily.
”Wah, if so you can already drive ya?” Axel asked spontaneously again towards James.
”Gue who nyetir” between Helen who is now increasingly upset.
Axel looked at Helen, then at James ”so, what does he do?” Ask Helen later.
“Bawain groceries I“ Reply Helen proudly.
“What?“ Axel looked at James who was just smiling resignedly. But when Axel was about to comment more, suddenly his cellphone rang and immediately he issued it to find out “Wah wa forgot there was a promise ma si Key. Yaudah wa stay first if so“ he added then after checking his phone “ntar wa home, many things you need to tell“ Axel smiled at James and then disappeared quickly behind the cafe door.
“Basic boy it“ James said with a smile.
Helen stared at James with an expression that needed an explanation.
”What?” James looked at Helen.
”What the fuck just now?” Ask Helen with a brush.
”Ya as said. We are friends since childhood” replied James silently saying it.
”How can you meet?” Helen asked again as they resumed their shopping.
”Axel? Our parents are friends” replied James with a smile ”oya, this has run out already no more events right?” add her so that Helen does not start the topic of conversation about Axel.
”Ga is there, why? Lo mo turning?” Helen answered the question.
”Hm, I should have changed shifts with someone else” he said doubtful if Helen was angry with his words.
Helen looked at the clock in her hand. Half seven nights ”Oh, it's like this. Alright. Come back to cafe” he said later.
