METRYERS

CHAPTER 2: Murder?

The cold night wind makes my body freeze to death if I do not use a jacket more than 2. Lexo's sister is currently busy watching television while eating a light snack that she bought earlier, and Fraxinavezar's brother is still not home from work, father also has not returned home. At home there's only me, Mom, and Lexo's sister.

On television I was busy recording a summary of Xavier Abrahams' identity. Maybe Lexo's sister is tired of seeing me always having to record the identities of the students in my class.

"Don't you hear there's a new student in your class?" said Mr. Lexo suddenly.

I nodded, "The name is Xavier Abrahams, a transfer boy from London" I replied, still focused on the summary I wrote. Brother Lexo suddenly rose from his sleeping position to sit down. His eyes looked at me, I don't know in what way.

"Xavier Abrahams?"

"Yes"

Mom suddenly came to bring us both warm chocolates. The thing I loved the most this winter, mom brought her warm chocolates to her little family members. Simple but very meaningful.

"Just busy huh, Leonavyn?"

"Yes. Finished this I want to go out for a while to return the book" I said.

"Don't go home too late huh" Mother gently stroked my head making me feel comfortable. True, mother's affection has no limits, is very deep, and reminisces.

"Silver brother" said Mr. Lexo

"No need. At Rose Cafe only, where Vezar's sister works" Vezar is my nickname for Fraxinavezar's sister.

"Be careful, out of danger" said Lexo's brother, who left me with his mother in the television room alone.

"Your sister is still the same. Secretly worried about you. He still has not expressed his affection openly" said the mother who appeared to be confused with the behavior of Lexo's sister.

I closed my class's student identification book, and then cleared it up, "I think it's a big brother. Yasudah, I want to get ready to go yes" I said after that go to the room to get ready.

I carried a small backpack containing several weapons for martial arts, a book I wanted to return, and money. Even though my brother works at Rose Cafe, I can't just buy there for free.

The distance between Rose Cafe and the house is not too far, walking can also be. Today Vezar's sister's night zero, so he came home a little late from dad. Sometimes I miss joking and laughing with Vezar and Lexo's sister. Jahil to one with the other. The most enjoyable time is with family and friends, believe me. There may be many conflicts between our families but family remains the most important part of our lives.

I put my hands between my jacket pockets. Ducking while kicking the stuff I see carelessly. Without me knowing I've arrived in front of Rose Cafe. I immediately approached Geva who had been waiting since. I'm so bad that I'm a few minutes late.

"Hello, sorry a little long. This is your book, thank you" I immediately handed the maroon-coated book to Geva.

"Either. Do you know Xavier Abrahams' phone number? She captivated my heart very much" Geva, who seemed happy when discussing Xavier, said suddenly.

"ah, sorry, I don't have any. I haven't asked her, on her Identity list, not to have her number listed, if I can, I'll give it to you" I replied.

"okay, I keep that promise! yes, I go first, there is urgent business! Good night, Leonavyn Axvizer!" Geva just left me.

Not long from there suddenly Brother Vezar came to bring my favorite coffee. Apparently he remembered my favorite coffee flavor. "How's the school?" ask Vezar who is sitting in front of me

"It's wrong that brother asked like that?"

"Not so, I mean—"

"Yes, I understand Leonavyn."

If you understand why ask! huh, base Fraxinavezar. Vezar has a warm and peace-loving person, very different from Lexo, he loves riots and has a person who likes to make trouble at school. Yeah that's how his name might be a brother, different. The difference is usually obvious.

"When will I come home?" I asked while stirring my coffee a little more run out.

"finished this brother came home. Want to go home together?" I nodded enthusiastically. It's very rare that I can go or walk alone with Verza's sister, because the busyness of each makes us rarely spend time together.

"Wait for my sister" he said, who left me again.

After waiting for about 10 minutes, he was finally done. We immediately go home, eager to rest after a long and tiring day. On the street we chat together, discuss my school, his current job, the news of each of us, our feelings today, and much more. This is more than enough for me to be alone with Verza.

In the middle of our journey. I met Xavier in his shirt, who saw some red marks on his shirt. I stopped his seemingly quick steps, in panic.

"Hello Xavier!" my sap that he didn't respond to. He just ran away leaving me and Verza's sister.

"Ah, it feels bad to be let by him when I'm calling or talking to him" I murmured.

When I looked at my sister Verza's face, the color of her eyes had changed to red somehow since when. "sister?"

"Well, the blood smells good, Leonavyn?" I don't know what happened but this moment is very creepy I shook Verza's body tight to realize.

"Unconscious!" lirih. It looks like the aroma is so concentrated that it makes Kak Verza still unconscious. Is it because of Xavier? what the hell is he doing? the steps are not what I usually see. Is this murder again? There's no way Xavier's a killer! earlier when meeting Xavier there was also someone who had red spots on his shirt.

I'm pulling Verza's arm so that things don't happen that I don't expect here. If people find out he is actually this is very dangerous, because it can destroy the reputation of his work and can worsen our good name and family name.

Arriving at home, apparently father is still not home.sister is still in hallucinations like it. I called Lexo's mother and sister to help make her sober.

"MOTHER! BROTHER LEXO! HELP!" my screams were immediately heard by Lexo's sister and mother who were in their respective rooms. They immediately came down in a hurry.

"WHERE ARE YOU NEW?!"

"Cafe is Vezar's sister! I met Xavier and suddenly Vezar's brother was like that!" obviously I was in a trembling tone of fear.

"Vezar, wake up Vezar!" Brother Lexo unhesitatingly slapped Vezar's right cheek for him to wake up and fortunately succeeded, Mr. Vezar did not react to anything afterwards

"Murder, again." murmured brother Vezar
