Red Pen In Blue Sky
Chapter 31: The Initial Problem Part 19
"Eh?"
"Rio!" "Adrians!" "Kevin!" Three men looked surprised, and called each other's names in surprise.
"Lady!" "Siska!" "Fiona!" The three women who were next to each of the three men, also looked surprised and mentioned each other's names.
"You know each other?" The six people spoke simultaneously, which left the six speechless.
"What's this... You two are dating without telling me!" Said Rio with a frown.
"Hey hey! The one who should have said that was me! You're dating yourself don't tell us that!" Kevin said in an unhappy tone.
"He's right, you didn't tell him about your relationship either." Adrian nodded his head.
"It's been... We have to find a quiet place, unsightly to be seen by many!" Nana said that she stopped them, because she found some people looking at them.
"Uhm... Right, it's uncomfortable." Said Fiona who nodded her head.
"We just go there, I know a quiet place and have a comfortable atmosphere." Say Siska who invites them to go somewhere.
The place is a quiet cafe, they order a coffee each.
"So who are we going to start with?" Said Kevin who asked with a puzzled face.
"Then we'll start from me and Rio." Said Nana who started telling from the beginning of her meeting with Rio.
...
"Is so... Then I'll tell you my part with Adrian." Siska began to tell her story.
Hearing the stories of her two friends, Fiona then begins to tell her story with Kevin.
After learning about the things that happened, and for having the same reason, the six of them ended up silent.
"Ehm... So you didn't tell him because to you it didn't matter, Fiona?" Said Nana who asked with a frown.
"Yes!" Said Fiona who nodded her head.
"... Haaah, that's why you didn't tell me, because you didn't want to disturb our friendship?" Kevin asked the two.
"Yes that's... But if that's your boyfriend's reason, then why don't you tell us that?" Said Rio who asked while looking at Kevin with a sharp look.
"Ah that... I forgot?" Said Kevin while smiling awkwardly, hearing him make Rio and Adrian choke on the air, they both looked at Kevin with twitching eyes.
"Sorry! I forgot, but not only that, I didn't say it because of Daffa! I don't want him to know about this! If he finds out he'll be sad because I already have a girlfriend, while he's single!" Said Kevin trying to explain why.
"... If that's true then I can accept it, because I kept it a secret about my relationship because I didn't want Daffa to know." Adrian said, accepting this.
"Well, you're right, I'm the same." Said Rio who nodded his head.
"Well, by the way, is this Daffa a good friend you talk about a lot?" Nana said curiously.
"Yes! He's our best friend, why?" Said Rio who nodded his head.
"Came?" Nana said that she looked at the female figure inside the bookstore, and was seen looking at the novel book on the bookshelf.
"... Uh that... That's not Daffa!" Said Rio who was looking towards the bookstore, where there was his good friend.
"What! They're standing next to each other! They are also dating!" Fiona's words instantly made the atmosphere become silent.
Meanwhile, on the other hand, Daffa who was looking for a novel book that had just come out, he found a woman who tried to reach a book at the very top of the bookcase, which was, it was Rissa.
It seemed like the meeting in the park that was going to happen in the future, was not the first time meeting for the two of them, fate was strange and full of mysteries.
So try not to play with fate itself, Daffa helps the woman to pick up her book of choice, after getting her book from an unknown man, Rissa thanks him and bows her head a little before finally leaving.
Seeing the meeting of the two from a distance, making the six disappointed, they did not expect that it was not as they had imagined.
"I thought it would be a romantic scene like in the movies." Fiona muttered in disappointment.
"It's the real world, it can't happen, can it?" Nana said that she shrugged both shoulders casually, even though she was also a little disappointed, even though she hoped to find someone who was right for her best friend.
"It's a shame that Daffa didn't work!" Said Kevin shaking his head.
"No, he hasn't even tried to do anything, he just picked up a book for Ica." Said Siska who told him the truth.
"Right, but I'm also a little disappointed and sad at the same time, after all he's our best friend, I want him to have someone who cares a lot about him." Adrian was also disappointed.
"Why did I see the common thread between them, when they were both standing next to each other." Siska said that instantly made everyone speechless, because they also saw the same thing, before they thought it was just a hallucination, but it was impossible for hallucinations to occur to the six people simultaneously instead.
"Was... Are the two really meant to be together?" Said Fiona who asked curiously.
"That's... Maybe just?" Said Nana who frowned.
"... I hope that's true, because Daffa is our best friend, if he meets a good woman, then that's a very good thing, isn't it?" Said Rio who asked his two friends.
"Well, I wish Daffa all the best!" Kevin said he agreed.
"But come to think of it, don't you guys feel weird, they both look so calm, as if they've met before?" Adrian said, confused by his feelings when he saw Daffa looks so calm, when he met a woman, it felt too strange, as if they knew each other but forgot to meet, he said, so it's like there's a feeling of knowing each other but at the same time it's not.
"Hem... You have a point, but I don't think that's possible, because if they're supposed to talk more, they both look like they've only met for the first time?" Said Kevin telling him his opinion.
"I don't know if it's true or not, but at least we don't have to keep our relationship between each other secret now, well except Daffa of course." Said Rio who stopped his friends from thinking about Daffa and Rissa's relationship.
"You're right, we don't have to keep our relationship a secret anymore, after all Ica has known about us a few times, but we always try to cover it up, now it's not necessary anymore." Said Nana who nodded her head.
"Well you guys are lucky enough, we can't do such a thing, because our best friend has been single since childhood." Said Kevin shaking his head.

"Eh... The dream?" Rio, Adrian, Kevin, Nana, Siska, and Fiona said, simultaneously when they had just woken up from their deep sleep.
