"Actually I've known each other since Elementary School."
"You're one school in SD?" Dean interrupted the story from Erlang.
"Not to bother if anyone else is telling a story."
Arvel pulled Dean's nose and avenged Dean's sharp gaze. " Next Lang."
Erlang continued his story "Actually my house with Elena used to be a complex. Every Sunday we play in the park. But that week was the last week we met because I had to move to high school in America,"
"I'm actually reluctant to move, but Elena convinced me that if I ever return, Elena's heart remains for me." Erlang took a breath.
"Maybe most people think that it's the monkey's love that over time is also lost. But it's different for me, my feelings are still the same for Elena." she added.
"Why did you feel the same about Elena Lang?" Dean interrupted Erlang's story.
Erlang took a drink that was located on the table because he felt his throat dry.
He saw Dean and Arvel who were still faithful looking at him as if asking for a continuation of his rich story of the baby whining for a fairy tale before going to bed, ha ha ha ha. Eh so keinget Elena the leak.
"When I got back to Jakarta, I went to Elena's house. But Elena moved out about 2 years ago. So said the new owner,"
"Gue was disappointed when he found out Elena had moved on. I don't know where else to find Elena. Because I don't have Elena's number."
"And for the first time I saw Elena during orientation at school. I never thought I would go to school with him. I was really happy at that time. But it was the disappointment I got. Elena doesn't seem to recognize me. He had forgotten his promise."
Arvel and Dean are still listening to Erlang's story. Not a single bit of their gazes escaped from staring at Erlang.
"It turns out like this if your face is serious again. Haha."
"That's not funny to know. Another person is serious too." joked Dean while hitting Arvel's thigh.
"Darling why I got hit. Erlang's fault wasn't me." Arvel said, not accepting Dean's beating. He stroked his thigh, which I don't know how many times today was beaten by Dean.
"My boyfriend is you, I just want to hold you. So it was you I hit. When I hit Erlang, Erlang is sick again." Dean explained by showing his innocent face.
"This is called mukul not megang darling." there is an emphasis on the word Arvel.
"Just like, you're both touching." Dean stuck out his tongue, not making Arvel angry but making Arvel even more anxious.
Erlang continued his story rather than having to look at the behavior of his best friend who made him jealous, he thought.
"Gue didn't think Elena would lose me. I thought that Elena already had a guy,"
"But my mind was wrong, I was surprised when Arvel told me Elena liked me. I'm really confused by the way Elena thinks. What exactly is his plan? I guess he played with my feelings, so I cuekin him. Because I've been angry and disappointed with Elena's demeanor."
Arvel and Dean tried to digest every sentence that came from Erlang's mouth.
"But over time Elena's attitude increasingly shows that she really likes me. And by no coincidence when I went to the supermarket that time I met the old housekeeper Elena,"
"He told me Elena and her family had an accident when she was in 2nd grade high school. He had amnesia and died. I really didn't expect it and I've been thinking badly of him."
"Hmm." Erlang gave a sign by nodding his head.
"When did you know Lang?" asked Arvel who was curious about it.
"Gue only found out since last year's class."
"So you've been dating for a long time and you've been courting secretly for a long time."
Dean raised his voice a little. He does not accept if Erlang and Elena keep their relationship a long time and do not tell him, even though Dean is Elena's best friend and Arvel is Erlang's best friend.
"We've been dating for a few months." Erlang's words slightly angered Dira.
"Why?" dean asked again making Arvel puffed while twisting his eyes.
"I actually wanted to get to Elena when I found out she was amnesiac. But I'm too prestigious and have no reason to suddenly take him down. Until at last I told him to find a tutor. As you know Elena is smart, so I used the opportunity." explained Erlang who was replied by a nod by Arvel and Dean.
Suddenly came bi Sumi while carrying items containing Erlang clothes in her right hand and food that she had cooked while returning home earlier on the left.
The arrival of bi Sumi stopped their conversation.
Bi Sumi looked puzzled as she saw the expression of the three suddenly pointing towards her without saying a word.
"What's the Young Master, is aunt's arrival disturbing?" ask bi Sumi while stepping towards the sofa and putting the items she brought earlier on the table near the sofa."
"No bi" said Erlang while laying down his body. "Gue wants a break, so you can go home." Erlang pulled the blanket over his face.
"Lang's story, I'm still curious to know." Dean pulled out the blanket that covered Erlang's body.
"I guess later the story could have been foaming at my mouth." Erlang tilted his body to his back to Arvel and Dean.
Arvel just shook his head to see the behavior of his friend who likes to change.
"How come Erlang is that so dear?" Dean looked at Arvel while showing a pouting face.
"We're going home, you know, Kasian Erlang, maybe he's tired." Arvel rubbed Dean's head.
"We go home Lang, you get enough rest" Arvel said.
"Hmmmm." Erlang replied without flinching from his position. Arvel and Dean leave Erlang's room.
We both fell
You drown with taste, and I drown with despair.

Elena has arrived in Canada. He waited for an invitation from his father while sitting in a caffe.
By ordering a cup of americano because it feels very sleepy. He prefers to wrap it up and drink americano in a roadside chair rather than having to drink it in a caffe.
He walked while dragging his suitcase while drinking a cup of americano he ordered and he accidentally nudged a man's arm and spilled the drink he held until it hit his shirt.
"I am Sorry," said Elena while cleaning the coffee stains that hit the man's shirt.
"Its okay, don’t worry,” he said while holding the tiny hand Elena stopped the movement there.
Elena put her face against the male figure before her.
"What! You?"
