Hansel had lunch with Marc. Although lunch with a simple menu, Hansel so enjoy lunch. Marc is so good at calling the dishes he ordered. Hansel only smiled faintly at the behavior of his friend.
"Slow down. I'm not gonna take your food, Marc."
Marc looked at Hansel and smiled, "I'm so hungry. I slept all day, and just ate this lunch. Eat, don't keep looking at me. I know I'm a handsome guy, but you're still a long way from me."
"What are you talking about? keep your mouth shut while you're eating" replied Hansel.
Marc smiled and nodded. He feels happy to be able to enjoy time with his old friend. For a long time, Marc was looking forward to being with Hansel as in school days.
In a quiet atmosphere, Hansel and Marc finished their lunch without speaking again. After eating and paying the bills, Marc invites Hansel to leave the restaurant. They rushed to Marc's apartment.
*****
Arriving at the apartment. Marc showed me the whole apartment. There are only two bedrooms, one bathroom, kitchen and living room located not far from the dining table.
"This is all I can rent, Hans. I hope you will stay with me. Just tell me what you want and need. If I'm capable I'll give it," said Marc.
Hansel shook his head slowly, "Nothing I need anymore, Marc. This is more than enough. I'm so grateful to you" replied Hansel.
"Don't hesitate. I'm glad you want to stay here. That's your room, Hans. Go in and rest" asked Marc to point to a room opposite his room.
"You rest too, Marc. Didn't you promise to take me around?" ask Hansel.
"of course. You've come all the way here. I'll take you around while I'm off work. Let's have some fun and have a beer later" replied Marc.
Hansel smiled, "Yes, whatever. I go in first," she immediately walked into the room.
Hansel opened the door and entered the room. The room was clean, it looks like Marc has worked hard to clean the room that will be in his place. Hansel closed the room slowly, he immediately put his backpack on the floor and immediately sat on the edge of the bed.
"Haahh." - Hansel pushed his own body onto the bed. He closed his eyes slowly and not long after reopening his eyes, he stared at the ceiling of his room.
"I need to be able to change my life. I can't keep going like this. How, huh? is finding a job here difficult?" mumbled thinking.
"I still don't think. How could those people easily reject me without seeing my ability. I regret it once" he murmured again. Hansen closed his eyes and soon fell asleep from exhaustion.

In the afternoon, Marc and Hansen went around. Marc took Hansen to places he frequented. Hansel felt something different, though still unsure of what was going on in the future. He was quite happy with his current situation. There was Marc who just wanted to hold it he was grateful. In the end they went around until night came. Satisfied going around, Marc took Hansel to the pub where he used to drink.
"Hows it? lots of interesting places, right?" marc asked for a sip of his drink one gulp.
"Yes, I hope I'm lucky here. I'll try to find a job tomorrow" Hansel replied.
"No need to rush. I'm not gonna burden you, Hans. Just relax with me" said Marc with a faint smile.
"I don't know what else to say but to thank you, Marc. Really, you're my best friend."
"Let's have a drink" Marc asked.
Marc holds a glass filled with drinks, seeing that Hansel also holds a glass filled with drinks and then bring the glass closer to Marc's glass.
"Cheers..."
"Cheers..."
Both of them toast and immediately gulp down the drink in one gulp. Hansel put his glass on the table, his eyes probing around. Previously, he rarely went outside like a Pub or Club. Different from Hansel. Marc often came to the Pub or Club because both places were associated with his secret work.
Someone came over to Hansel and Marc. The beautiful woman greeted Marc. Even without being awkward directly hugged and kissed Marc's cheek.
"Hey, Marc.." said the beautiful woman.
"Annabell's? long time no see, baby. How are you doing?" ask Marc.
"I'm not so good, Marc. You know what my daily life is like."
"Yes, of course you know. Then?" sahut Marc is curious. Marc looked at the beautiful woman in front of him.
"Dear, don't be like this. There was my friend who was watching" said Marc, looking at Hansel, who was looking the other way.
"Oh..." Annabell followed Marc's view. Then he looked back at Marc and asked, "Who is He, Marc? handsome too," asked Annabell.
"He was my friend, just arrived this afternoon. And, now will stay with me."
"Wow, did you find the housekeeper?" seductive Annabell, smiling mischievously at Marc.
"Don't fuck around. Who do you call a guard, hum? you keep teasing me, Anna. Don't blame me for eating you" whispered Marc in Annabell's ear.
"Could only. Come on, my prey. I'll wait for you in my apartment later," replied Annabell rubbing Marc's cheeks.
"Wah-wah, you missed me as it turned out. I'm lucky to be missed by an Annabell," Marc's tease rubbed Annabell's pretty face.
Annabell stood up from Marc's lap. Annabell looked at Hansel and greeted Hansel. Inviting Hansel to meet.
"Hi, what's your name? I'm Annabell," said Annabell to Hansel.
Hansel looked at Marc followed by Marc's nod, "Hi is also Anna. I'm Hansel, "Hansel looked at Annabell and welcomed Annabell's hand. They also shake hands.
"You're good too. Don't be surprised like that, I won't pounce on you. I'm Marc's secret lover" Annabell said with a beautiful smile.
Hansel was surprised and looked at Marc. Marc just smiled and shook his head as if pleased with Annabell's statement. It's true Annabell and Marc have a relationship. But their relationship is really complicated. Because Marc won't be able to love just one woman.
After meeting with Marc and Hansel. Annabell said goodbye, then immediately left the two. Annabell looked at Marc, blinking one eye as a gesture.
"You're really dating her?" ask Hansel.
"He's my loyal customer" replied Marc.
"Customer? meanin?" ask Hansel.
"Hm... What, huh? Never mind. Later you also know for yourself what I mean," explained Marc. Feeling reluctant to tell stories.
Hansel could only remain silent while frowning. He really did not understand what Marc said. Intrigued actually, but Hansel tried to understand if Marc did not seem to want to tell a lot about his work.
They both went back to drinking. Hansel didn't dare drink much because he didn't want to look chaotic the next day. Another case with Marc, who is strong to drink and is used to it.
About an hour later. Hansel and Marc return to the apartment. At the door of the apartment stood Annabell who was waiting for Marc to come home.
"You're finally here, Marc."
"Sorry, sweetheart. You waited long?" replied Marc.
"Yes, my legs are cramping. You've been a long time," sulked Annabell.
"Don't get mad. I'll give you a present later" persuaded Marc.
"Hm, okay. Come on," take Annabell.
Marc looked at Hansel, "Hans, tonight I'm going with Annabell. You okay by yourself?" ask Marc.
Hansel nodded, "Yes, I'm fine. You two go have some fun" replied Hansel.
Marc smiled, "I'm sorry, friend. On your first day I just left you. Tomorrow I'll change it by buying you a meal" said Marc.
"Yes, Marc. No problem" replied Hansel.
"Come, baby. Goodbye, Hans..."
Marc grabs Annabell's waist and leaves with Annabell to leave Hansel. Hansel saw a flash of the departure of his friend's friend and lover then immediately entered the apartment. Hansel wants to go to bed so he can get up early tomorrow and go to work.
