Mysterious Handsome Cos Neighbors

Edgar

When I was daydreaming on the balcony.

my daydream was broken when suddenly someone put on my jacket.

to my surprise, the one wearing my jacket was that strange guy.

**

"are you cold?"

"these nights are outside"

suddenly he was beside me.

he sees me. There is something different about him now.

I don't know what, but he now looks calmer, even though his face still shows the face of a tired man.

I'm a little bit away.

"you're a freak!"

"not friendly!"

"noisy nights make strange noises"

"his body is a nibanin chick!"

unconsciously I came out with all the uneg-uneg in my mind.

"sorry yes.."

"i didn't mean anything"

"sorry for your nicotine these past few days"

he apologized while bowing his head.

"hufft.." I sighed.

"well, I'm sorry"

honestly I was very upset with him, but I am not the type of person who does not want to forgive people, and also I feel there is something behind his strangeness all along.

"may I know what's really going on" I asked.

"the story is long." answered him while raising his head.

"i have plenty of time"

"that's also if you don't mind telling it"

I'm curious about what happened, the reason behind all the strangeness, but I don't want to force him either.

"before that, we have not yet known"

"my name is edgar"

while saying his name he smiled.

the sky today was bright cloudless. The bright moonlight illuminated the both of us. illuminated her face with her sweet smile.

"mm.. What's your name?"

"if I may know.."

the question he asked me.

"My name is Amelia" I replied.

"Beautiful name" said edgar with a sweet smile.

"shit. This guy if it's not weird is really different from usual."

"why a handsome guy like this should be weird anyway." I murmured inwardly.

"It's cold outside"

"Come, I'll tell you everything in my budget"

edgar.

I followed him from behind.

After he opened the door and entered.

my steps were silent at the entrance.

"What's wrong?" edgar asked confused to see me silent.

edgar spoke again.

"ah sorry.."

"it's weird to think about it"

"cowok invites girls into his room in the middle of the night"

"sorry yes I didn't think that far" edgar apologized.

I'm still silent.

"it's okay"

"i was silent thinking about it"

"but if you think about it, it's still in my own neighborhood"

"many people I know here"

"so there's nothing" I said a lot after being silent for a long time.

I started to walk again, into Edgar's room.

edgar let me sit in a chair.

looks like this is the chair for the study table.

"just a minute" said edgar.

I watched the room.

neat and clean.

I thought it would be a dirty, messy place

remembering his noisy behavior at night.

I thought the contents of his room would be messy.

"sorry old" edgar returned with two medium-sized glasses.

"ah so ngerepotin" I said.

"no" replied edgar.

edgar gave me one of the two glasses he carried.

turns out he made hot chocolate.

I drank it a little.

the warm and sweet taste really makes a cold night warm.

"so about explaining everything that's been going on lately" Edgar said, breaking my focus on hot chocolate.

"so what's the explanation?" said ask.

"don't tell anyone"

"it's just you that I told you about this"

"the color I feel guilty makes you so troubled and confused by what's happened lately"

edgar explained at length.

I find it strange why he told me not to tell anyone.

but I finally did.

because I also want to know what really happened to him.

"yes, I won't tell anyone" I said.

"so the story started two years ago" edgar began to tell.

"i was dating a girl from college"

"when I entered the second year, I accidentally saw him together with a guy in a cafe"

"maybe I can still think positively if they just sit and eat"

"but it turns out they're kissing"

"kissing in a public place, strange thing isn't it"

"i went to them both"

"when I found out I was there, my girlfriend was shocked and I decided right then and there"

"so you're being weird about cheating on girls?" I interrupted edgar's story.

"no, that's not all" edgar replied.

"after I found out my boyfriend cheated on me, I was upset"

"whether the moment could be right when I was upset my college friend brought me something"

"my friend gave me a little plastic with white powder"

"huh?!. drugs??" I was surprised, interrupted Edgar's story again.

"yes, drugs" replied edgar flatly.

"the right moment when I'm upset"

"my college friends brought me that forbidden object"

"actually I just needed time to heal my turmoil at that time"

"but because I was upset that I was given that thing"

"i became dependent on that item and couldn't escape until now"

"the consequences have affected my life a lot"

"my lecture was disrupted, behavior became strange, to the point of disturbing you"

"when I was noisy in the middle of the night"

"that's the effect of me trying to resist not wearing that stuff again"

"it feels really bad. I can't express it in words"

hearing edgar's explanation, I was really shocked.

I thought about many possibilities as to why he was being weird.

but this is completely beyond my expectations.

"well, that's the story" edgar finished the story.

I don't know what to say.

I was too shocked to hear the story.

I took a deep breath and took it out to calm myself.

"you still have that stuff?" my many.

"still, but I haven't worn it in days" Edgar took out two small plastic wrap from his pocket.

I stood up to take it.

then I walked to the bathroom.

I dumped all the contents in that little plastic into the drains.

edgar was surprised to see me do that.

I sat back in his study chair.

"why?" ask edgar.

"if you really intend to stop, you have to throw away all that stuff"

"also stay away from all your friends who are in contact with that item" I said firmly.

"can you promise?" my many.

"i promise I'll stay away from that forbidden item, and all my friends who are related to it" Edgar replied.

"ahh. I'm really relieved" edgar said with a small laugh.

"why?" my many.

"maybe because I never told you all the problems I've been waiting for" replied Edgar.

"good if that's it" I said.

I looked among the piles of books on his study table.

there is a familiar book cover.

I picked it up and it turned out to be my favorite comic.

"you read this comic too?" tanyaku.

"yes, I read that comic from sd" replied edgar.

I didn't expect Edgar to read my favorite comic.

we both talked a lot about the comic.

I really didn't sleep that day.

seriate...
