My Love Is Stupid's

Chapter 57's

Niko ran to her living table and called Erika's number.

"Erika," he said quickly, "i'll come to the reunion party."

Erika sounded pleased with the news. Next, Niko knocks on the door of Julien's apartment downstairs.

"I have to go home" Niko said as Julien opened the door.

"What do you mean, go home?” ask Julien confused.

"Give me three days. I have to go home next week" Niko pleaded with Julien.

"Is anyone sick? Your folks?" Julien never saw Niko as sweet as this, even when depressed because of work guidance though.

"Not that. I have to see someone. I have to see him Julien." Niko looked at Julien seriously.

Julien took a breath. "Someone special, right?"

Niko nodded with a smile. "Someone who has helped me make my dream come true."

"Ah." Julien nodded his head. "The girl who gave you your work a few years ago. I-i understand. Go."

Niko hugged Julien briefly. "Merci(thank you), Julien.”

Niko started calling the flight ticket section, and immediately bought a return ticket for the next week.

Niko entered her school area. She smiles. The school has not changed. Classrooms still surround the school environment. In the middle is a school garden. Then a basketball court. Niko walked towards the school hall, where the reunion party was held.

"Niko!" erika shouted while hugging him. "I'm so glad you could come."

Niko laughed and hugged him back. "During didn't meet Erika."

Niko shakes Ari's hand. "Hello, Ari. I'm Niko."

Ari nodded. "I know."

Erika embraces Ari's hand with a smile. "Ari is a doctor."

Niko laughed broadly, "You really want a doctor to be your girlfriend huh."

Erika punches Niko's arm slowly. "Hey. I'm a doctor too, you know! Um, I mean about another year or two."

"I never thought you'd get into medicine." Niko surprised.

"Mistake himself never contacted me. I have to greet the other participants," Erika said with a smile. "Please go around by yourself, okay?"

Niko nodded. "All right."

Niko's gaze swept across the hall space. He got to know his schoolmates first and smiled and then started greeting them. Most of them are either working or in college.

After greeting almost everyone she knew, Niko sat at a table facing the entrance. Everyone comes in, Niko wishes it was Fara. When the expected face never appeared, Niko's heart was slightly disappointed.

Erika started the reunion party with great fanfare. There were musical performances, skits, and video recordings of their activities during the school days. Niko realizes that Fara was never in the video. Most of them are dominated by her and Erika. It was as if Fara had never been in the same school as him. Niko was desperate when the reunion party had reached the top of the event and Fara never came.

At eleven o'clock in the evening, the show ends. All that remains is the committee. Niko sat on the stage.

Erika approached. "Coffee?" bargained for.

Niko laughed and accepted Erika's offer of coffee. "Thanks." -."

"He didn't come, did he? Fara?" Erika looked at Niko's eyes which were shining sadly.

Niko nodded slowly.

Erika accompanied Niko to sit on the stage. "I was really selfish back in school. I wanted to apologize to him. But he didn't come. I asked the other friends, but no one seems to know Fara's news."
