Kent slowly closes the door to James' room, and accidentally drops the book he is holding, Kent picks it up and steps towards the lecture hall.
James and Mei were shocked when they heard something falling behind the door. James let go of his embrace and looked at Mei for a moment.
"I went in first, James was just about the time of Kent, horrified me when I was late," Mei's voice sounded like a whisper, somehow Meisya felt sorry to see James' sad eyes.
James nodded and still held May's hand. Meisya pulled slowly and stepped away from James' room. James stared at the back of Mei who stepped dead in her room and disappeared behind the door. Mei immediately entered the lecture room and throughout the giving of Kent material seemed more quiet than usual, his voice which usually always sounded explosive, today sounded flat and looked less excited.

While James was still busy with his duties, someone knocked at his door, James lifted his face from the pile of his student duties and turned his eyes to the door. Appearing Kent's face.
"Busy James?" ask Kent.
"As you can see," said James and turned his head on the back of the chair.
"What's wrong?" james looked at Kent sitting across from his desk.
"Nothing, I happened to pass by, want to be with me James?" ask Kent.
"No, I'll just walk" James replied with a smile.
"Sorry, I went in without knocking on the door and .. saw you hugging Meisya," Kent said slowly.
"I'm sorry I asked, Edwin is your brother how the hell, still brother or how?" kent asked in confusion.
"Why did you suddenly ask him?" ask James.
"When was the day I met Mei and she introduced someone named Edwin, I saw that she didn't seem to have any resemblance to you at all" Kent said.
"Ah you are too shallow to understand the meaning of Kent, Edwin I was forced to call brother, there is a long story behind it, which feels tired if I tell you," said James revise his innards and look ready to go home.
"And it looks like you were so hurt that you hugged Meisya" Kent said, staring at James' laughing face.
"Well, I was hugging her for the last time, she's getting married and really not going to be able to reach, there's something else you're gonna ask and you're gonna say?" ask James. Kent laughed softly.
"I just didn't think you were that sick to Meisya" Kent said.
"I can't describe Kent, I just fell to the bottom this time, '" James replied, closing his eyes.
"Maybe because Mei didn't have time, you fell in love with her and she already belonged to someone else" Kent said.
"Maybe so," James nodded.
"I've just loved it, it's been this sad to see you hug Mei" Kent said with a plain face and James' laughter.
"Sometimes I'm envious, you can get that close to Meisya, too" Kent laughed.
"You know, I even kissed Kent, and he didn't respond at all, my heart was squeezed, and Mei plainly said, that she didn't feel anything," james closed his eyes and breathed heavily.
Kent looked shocked and his mouth was wide open.
"You must think of me *****, it's up to you, when I was really desperate, I tried to get him to turn his eyes to me, but Edwin was too strong in his heart, and until now I felt guilty for Edwin, so when Mei was sick and Edwin left Mei to me, I really kept Mei, at least, to make up for my guilt," James explains Kent's confusion.
"Come home to Kent, the night has just come down, it's time we rest our thoughts and feelings to make tomorrow fresh again" James stood up and carried his bag.
The two of them walked down the campus corridor when they saw Mei sitting in one of the gazebos in the campus garden
"Remain here?" ask James. Mei just shook her head quietly without making a sound. While heading to the parking lot they split up, Mei with James and Kent headed for her car.
"Well, you were alone in there last May?" ask James again.
"Thanks for the package, I opened it and was shocked when I saw the contents, must be expensive necklace is James?" ask Mei slowly.
"You're waiting for me just to say that, right?" ask James. Mei nodded.
"If you're not going to wear it, save it, I want you to remember me, even if I'm not on one side of your heart, at least I'm stored in your memory" James said. Meisya's eyes suddenly warmed.
"You make me sad James, you are the best friend who is always there when I have difficulties, of course I will always remember you" Meisya's voice sounded soft. James stops and holds May's hand.
"I made you cry?" ask James. Mei pulled her hand and continued walking.
"I'm just carried away by James, you're like a brother to me, when you feel sad, by itself my heart is also sad, I don't want to make you drown in sadness, I don't want to make you drown in sadness, I'm sure you'll find the right person, you're good to anyone and anyone who'll be your partner I'm sure will be very happy by your side" May turned to James and tried to smile.
"Yes James at my wedding, I really want you and Ben to come as a family to us" Meisya and James just nodded. They continued their journey in silence.
"It's until I'm James, yes, I want to go in" Mei said after arriving at her apartment.
"Don't offer me a layover?" ask James. Mei shook her head slowly.
"I'm sorry, I'm going to take a break, don't you, James?" mei felt guilty.
"No papa, I'm just kidding?" James ruffled Mei's hair and smiled seeing Mei feel guilty. They waved each other and James continued on his way.

The next day when James was busy with his work suddenly there was someone who was cheering into his work.
Both of them were equally stunned, a woman with a strange look, dressed in jeans and a kegedean shirt whose arms were rolled up to the elbows.
"I'm sorry I got in wrong," he just kind of went out. James shook his head in anger. Shortly after he heard a knock, James turned his gaze to the door, appearing to be Kent's irritating face.
"Second bully, what's wrong, I'm busy writing for our agency's monthly journal, get out or say it right away" James said. Kent laughed.
"I'm sorry if I bothered you, my brother went in here wrong James, he said he saw an angel without wings" Kent still laughed and heard James grunt softly.
"I think there's a woman coming in, she's taking a shower, her pants are the same clothes look like they've been washed for a month" James said, still looking at his laptop. Kent's laughter is becoming.
"Biasa is the artist James, he is the artist, the sculptor Kent, you know the gallery, famous in Sydney, his love of art makes him forget about his surroundings, that's why I was shocked to hear him say he was stunned to see the face of your angel hahahahah," Kent laughed so loudly.
"Come out of Kent, I want to concentrate and not be interested in hearing your rant about your strange sister, the woman so-is the case more precisely, sorry no offense," James said again without seeing Kent who returned laughing.
"No, I'm not angry, she's a strange woman, okay I went to my room James," Kent's laughter still rang out behind the door.
He was equally sane with his brother, and James returned to concentration with his work.

James was walking quickly towards the department office when suddenly someone called him.
"Sorry, can you ask me?" he said casually. James looked over and found the woman again.
"I don't know you" James kept his feet fast.
"It's very arrogant, can I not ask you to be my model, make a face sculpture?" ask him again while watching James' wide steps. James ignored her and continued his steps.
"Heh, didn't you hear?" suddenly the woman pulled James by the hand and James brushed his hand away angrily.
"You know what kind of manners you are, don't know the fair rules of ethical matters, get out of here and never bother me" James' voice sounded eerie. And the woman took one step back.
"Buset, I think the wingless angel, uh it turns out that she's a one-horned rhinoceros," the woman pinched her lips.
