LOVE STRATA 1

CS1 Panic

Running here and there, rolling over, wagging tails, and acting funny. That's what Boy has done since Ken came to Mario's house to return the binoculars he used with Juno to spy on Mario. Ken came alone, unaccompanied by Juno. Ken also wants to make sure that Mario will not change his mind after being persuaded two days ago.

"Make sure you're coming, Mario. I don't want my best friend to miss the holidays. Remember, yeah. Come along!" firmly Ken while holding the Boy.

"good. So take the train or just use my car?" ask Mario.

"Train only. I've got tickets for everyone. Take it right, deh!" ken said.

Si Boy suddenly bit into Ken's arm. Repeatedly staring at Ken with his round eyeballs. Boy wanted to say something to Ken. Luckily Ken picked up the signal with his instinct.

"ahahaha. Mario, it looks like little Boy wants to take a vacation. Can't come?" ask Ken.

"No" answered Mario briefly.

"No, you are horrified said young master Mario. Just playing with auntie, yeah. Ntar must be fried fish." Ken spoke to Boy while stroking his head.

Boy the cat seemed to understand Ken's words. Boy came back carefree and started playing his toy ball again, circling around while wagging his tail.

Mario's smartphone suddenly shook. But Mario doesn't care. Of course that attitude provoked Ken's curiosity.

"Call, tuh! Not lifted?" ask Ken.

"Leave it," replied Mario.

"Seriously won't get scolded? Your father, noah!" ken said after looking at the name on the screen Mario smartphone

Moments later Mario's expression changed in shock. He thought Alenna was the one who called, because from the morning Alenna kept sending unimportant messages. The last time Alenna sent a message that she had arrived at the airport and told Mario to pick her up immediately. Again Mario was lazy to respond to a message from Alenna and chose to ignore it.

Mario rushed to reach the smartphone that had been left lying near the TV remote. Just now Mario was about to take the call, but it didn't arrive. Written on the smartphone screen are five missed calls from Mario's father. Seeing that made Mario quickly call back.

Unexpectedly, the first word that came out of his father's mouth was 'stupid'. Mario's father informs him that Alenna has arrived at the airport since three hours ago, and Alenna's smartphone is not active. Mario's father insists on picking up Alenna at the airport. No other words after that. The phone call has been cut off unilaterally.

Mario took a deep breath. He tried to calm himself first. A glass of cold mineral water on the table he immediately grabbed, then spent instantly. It seems like Mario is stuck in an uncomfortable mood.

"What's up, anyway?" ask Ken. He rarely saw Mario that way.

"Alenna's home" replied Mario.

"What?"

Ken was shocked when Alenna's name was mentioned. He did not expect Alenna to return to Indonesia. His mind immediately soared considering the events of several years ago, when Ken was thrown high heels by Alenna and shouted obscenely. Recalling the past misunderstandings made Ken shudder. Now not only is Mario's heart less comfortable, Ken also feels so.

"How now?" ask Ken.

"Follow me to the airport. We'll get Alenna."

"Oh no! Boy, help me! Just get me to play ball, boy. I don't want to see Alenna!" reject Ken.

"Come, Ken!" take Mario. Now he pulls Ken's arm.

The scene lasted for a few minutes. Ken clung to the couch, defending himself from joining Mario. Mario persistently invites Ken, not even willing to let go of Ken's arm before he is willing to come. The Boy again acted funny despite being in such a state of panic at the time. The Boy clasped into Ken's hands holding onto the sofa. The Boy seemed to be on Mario's side, and wanted Ken to immediately take off his grip on the sofa.

Ken was tired, and he gave up. Now he's trailing behind Mario to the car garage. He left when Mario started driving his car.

Thirty minutes passed, Mario and Ken arrived at the airport. They both look for the existence of the figure of Alenna. Every possible place to be a waiting place has been visited by Mario and Ken. But, nil. Alenna hasn't seen him yet. The search was difficult because Alenna could not be reached at all.

An hour in vain. Mario and Ken didn't find Alenna at all. Getting back in the car was the right choice back then while thinking about other possibilities.

"We focus on finding him first, Ken. Anything else can be thought of later." Mario tried to think clearly.

"Tuh, tuh! Your dad called again. Quickly lift!" point Ken towards Mario's smartphone.

"don't want. Wait till I send a message." Mario refuses to follow Ken's advice to pick up the phone from his father.

Mario is right. Twice the voice calls went unanswered, Mario's father sent a short message. Mario deliberately brought his smartphone closer to Ken so that he could read a short message from his father.

Alenna's phone was detected outside the city. Detection team thought Alenna had been kidnapped or maybe her phone had been pickpocketed. Use your precious time to find him.

"Don't be kidnapped, man! Mending is removed!" ken said after finishing reading a message from Mario's father.

"If you can do both, Ken. There's nothing good about those two estimates."

Mario started his car engine. He tried to stay calm so as not to appear excessive attitudes.

"You want to find Alenna again, right?" ask Ken.

"Go home, sleep, and wait for news" replied Mario.

"What's? What if Alenna was really kidnapped?" ask Ken again.

"His kidnapper won't stand Alenna's attitude. It must be released if it's been kidnapped." Mario again did not care.

Ken was about to ask once more, but Mario first gestured him to remain silent. Ken just followed that signal. After all if anyone has to panic it is Mario. However, Mario tries to be more careful, refraining from getting out of his character.

Meanwhile, in another place, Meli was hugging Alenna into her house. Just a few minutes ago Meli got to know the beautiful bule Alenna, she had already made a conclusion about Alenna's personality. Meli was honest from the heart, Alenna was noisy and liked to talk. Had it not been for her heart not being easy 'baper', Meli would have repeatedly been offended by Alenna's words.

"Jrij-jreng. Welcome to Meli's house. My super comfortable palace. Please enter!" Meli.

"OMBS. Is this really a house? It's so small, anyway. Uh, there are cobwebs too!" alenna said with a look of disgust.

Meli expression flat. He has not commented. A moment later he set foot to get closer to Alenna. As soon as he got close he quickly pinched both of Alenna's cheeks.

"There is no sweetness in the mouth, anyway!" said Meli greas.

"Aw-aw-aw ...! I'm sorry, Meli. Okay, I'm in, here!" alenna said later.

"Smart kid. Please come in, yes!" said Meli acting motherly.

The first step that Meli took after getting permission from her parents to receive Alenna was to charge her smartphone. Meli paid no heed to Alenna's chatter in her room. Meli chooses to focus on informing Anjani about the previous events until she meets Alenna.

I'll be with you later in the afternoon. Uncle Sam's motorbike is idle. See you at your house, Mel.

The reply message from Anjani made Meli's heart a little relieved. He was relieved to have a friend to help Alenna.

"Meli, can I touch this?" ask Alenna.

"Don't! That's my diary!" emphatically Meli while quickly securing her diary.

"More curious, huh. Here I touch!" Alenna was pranking Meli.

"No ...!"
