Randy's car was driving slowly amid the heavy rain that was pouring down on the capital. The young man was currently wearing nearsighted glasses, as his vision power was drastically reduced in a state of minimal lighting. It must reduce its speed as it passes through puddles on some roads, which will soon become flooded if the rain continues for a long time.
Jeany sat next to the driver's bench thinking about Kevin. The girl then notices Randy who looks different because of the glasses he wears. But that's not why the young man looked different. Jeany looked more closely. Why did he realize it now?
"Lo kurusan huh, Ran?"
Randy seemed to flinch at the girl's comment. "Do I really look skinny?"
"Again, not skinny. Kevin is also a parenthetist" Jeany said grimly.
Randy was quiet for a long time afterwards. But he suddenly asked, "Jean, you know Freddie Mercury?"
Jeany felt strange about the question, but still answered it. "Know. Vocalist Queen, right?"
"How do you think he is?"
"Where's what?" ask Jeany confused.
"How's the guy?"
"Gue doesn't know, so don't know how he is."
"Lo know what he's famous for?"
"Maybe the songs. Why why?"
"Son, gapapa." Randy shakes.
They shut each other up. Jeany begins to feel that there is a problem that is troubling Randy's mind. The young man seemed overwhelmed by something. He remained silent until he arrived at Jeany's boarding house. There was not even another joke that he used to throw whenever the girl was about to get out of her car.
"Ran, if you have a crita-crita problem aja gapapa. It's weird to get a gini."
Randy smiled and nodded. He rubbed Jeany's head. "Promise you'll be ready for me?"
"Yes. You're gonna meet me."
The young man smiled wryly referred to as a friend. "I'll take an umbrella." Randy turned around to pick up an umbrella in the middle seat of his car.
"I don't have to take an umbrella with me." Jeany took out a small umbrella from her bag. She developed her umbrella before getting off Randy's car.
As usual, the young man waited until Jeany had actually entered the house. He let out a heavy sigh before stomping back on the spicy gas.

Kevin's lecture, which was supposed to start at half-eight in the morning, was suddenly canceled. There is a notice a replacement lecture will be held at three in the afternoon. Kevin passed by leaving the notice board. Of course, he will not attend a substitute lecture. The young man then decided to meet his lover, let go of the longing that has lately always plagued him.
"Jean, can't I go inside?" He asked with a pleading look at his lover who always told him to sit on the porch.
"No way," Jeany replied firmly.
"But I want to hug you ...." It's not usually Kevin's acting spoiled like that.
"When you get married, you can hug."
"really? Can I do it too?"
"Basic bawdy!" Jeany pinched Kevin's stomach.
"Ouch!" Kevin grimaced in pain. "That's a necessity, Jean. I want to get married soon ...."
"He is patient." Jeany then looked at her lover, there was a sense of tightness seeing the young man's tyrannical face. "Your face is pale. Are you all right?"
"Father. The weather is not good anymore. It's raining, it's hot. Make the flu."
Jeany looked at him worriedly. "Can you sleep well at the boarding house?"
"It didn't work at first, but now it's normal."
"Often overtime?"
"That's just overtime." Kevin apologized in his heart for lying. He never overtime.
"You're not feeling well don't go to work."
"I haven't had a month of work, it's not good to be absent."
"Aren't you going home?"
Kevin frowned. "Well, are you that? If I go home, it means I'm totally in our relationship."
"I'm just worried about you, Vin ... You're getting thinner ...."
"I'm fine."
"But-"
"You don't have to talk about that anymore. Mending we now go on a yuk date?"
"Dating?" Jeany's mind was distracted.
"Yes. Come to think of it after we've never been on a date."
"Next time you don't feel well anymore."
"This is the common cold. Come on. I don't have a lecture right now."
"Come on that." Jeany relented to see her lover so excited.
On a motorcycle they go to the mall where Kevin once took Jeany to watch a movie. They walked hand in hand, enjoying every second with the idol. Kevin looked at Jeany while grinning.
"It's good to ride the bike too. I can hug you."
"I don't think you can ride a bike."
"It's very judging of the guy ...." Kevin pretends to be hurt by Jeany's words.
"You've been in the car."
"I used to take a motorcycle to school."
"Oh yeah? How do I not know?"
Jeany catches a longing for Kevin's eyes. "You miss your mama?"
"Obsolutely normal. Oh yeah, what do we want to watch eat? My money is enough for one of them hehe ...."
"Eat it to be full."
"Want pizza?"
"Now. I love pizza too."
At the pizzeria, Kevin and Jeany choose a seat next to a glass window.
"Pesen package delay both yes?" ask Kevin.
"Yes. But drink it you just pesen mineral water, will take medicine."
Kevin nodded and offered, "want a salad?"
"Not to."
Pramusaji recorded their orders swiftly. While waiting for the order to arrive, Jeany occasionally noticed the sight visible from the windowpanes.
"It must be really cool if you can work there, so career women, wear work clothes that look elegant ...."
Kevin followed Jeany's direction. A skyscraper with modern architecture. He smiles. "Our marriage I will not forbid you to work."
"Ish you were from earlier a mulu marriage ...."
"Kok angry anyway, the guy I'm serious about getting married to you."
"It is important to take care of your health first! You keep worrying."
"I don't have anything to worry about anymore."
Jeany immediately stuck out her hand and pinched both of Kevin's cheeks with all her might. "So by the way, I ripped your mouth ...."
"I'm sorry, Jean! Kidding me!" kevin shouted in pain. "Stop this there's a phone!"
Hearing Kevin's phone ring, Jeany pulled her hand. While rubbing his sore cheek, Kevin looked at the phone screen. He mentioned Stevi's name in surprise before receiving the call.
"Hello, Stev? I'm again ama Jeany at Pizza TA. It's been a long time here. You wanna come over here? Okay okay." Okay."
Kevin and Jeany looked at each other. They waited for Stevi to arrive while eating the ordered dishes. It turns out Stevi came with Devi and Sandra. The five of them were now seated at a larger table.
"Jean, I'm here to say thank you because you already helped me at that time. If you are ...." Stevi bowed in embarrassment, not continuing her sentence.
"No need to thank you, Stev. Kevin's father who nolong lo."
"Yes but it's thanks to you. Kevin told me all. Rika is really sneaky. He made me believe that you who seem to be selling themselves, so that I do not hesitate to accept his offer," said Stevi regretted his stupidity. "Gue wants to say goodbye too. Tomorrow I want to go to Malaysia, stay there to take care of my father," he continued.
Kevin and Jeany looked shocked.
"How was college?"
"While this is a leave of absence. Kayak lo." Stevi smiled wryly. "Gue also wanted to apologize for being so bad to think of you."
"Gue should apologize for making you and Kevin break up."
Stevi shook her head. "Engga, Jean. Lo's more worthy of Kevin."
Silence then enveloped them. Despite apologizing to each other, the atmosphere remained awkward because basically they were never familiar. Sandra repeatedly elbowed Devi who was sitting next to her.
"Ehem! Jean, gu-gue would also like to apologize for my evil words. It's not what I'm accusing you of."
Jeany opened her mouth slightly in astonishment. Devi who most often insulted him apologized to him, even though it seemed forced.
"Yes I'm sorry."
"Thank you for helping my friend."
"Yeah! So today I'm the one who bought you guys to eat, including Kevin ama Jeany." Sandra declared her intention while smiling brightly.
"Tumben you want to practice? It's usually treated with mulu" Devi quipped.
"Last, Dev ... Before our best friend to Malaysia." Sandra looks sad to have to part with Stevi.
The five of them ate with a haru atmosphere, knowing that maybe that was the last time they could eat together.
"What's the trial, Stev?" asked Kevin curiously.
"I have testified as you suggested. I think the punishment for Rika is quite heavy because she is also a drug dealer."
"What?!"
"Yes I was also once loved, fortunately not to be severe, Rika was already caught."
"Trus you don't rehab?" Devi looked at her best friend.
"I'm not addicted to it."
"Thank God ...." The other four looked relieved.
"But Rika really is pity too ... She has a child out of wedlock, now lives in Surabaya with her grandmother. The father of his son doesn't want to be responsible."
Jeany was sad to hear of Rika's fate. But what he is reaping now is the result of his wrong life choices. If only time could be turned back. Unfortunately no.
Before they split up, Stevi and Jeany hugged each other.
"Hopefully if we meet again we can be best friends, Jean."
"Yes, Stev. I'll see you again."

It didn't feel like a month Kevin was working at his cousin's printing shop. He received his first salary. With a flowery heart the young man took his lover to watch a romantic movie in the cinema. While waiting in line to buy a ticket, Kevin suddenly felt a severe headache. He fell on the floor, making Jeany who was standing next to him cry out in panic.
Also read my friend's work this one yes 😃
