Shackled Two Flavors
With Embers



It did not feel like the clock home from school had arrived I immediately cleaned the book into the bag and out of the class as well as other students, as usual I waited in front of Audy's class because our class came home at a different time and only 10 minutes apart, I read one of my favorite books while standing leaning my body against the side wall of Audy's classroom door, when someone grabbed my book and shocked me when I saw it was Brother Bara.


"Eh...sister Bara, what's wrong?" I said full of astonishment and immediately stood up straight.


"I just want to remind you of your promise this week, don't forget" said Brother Bara while returning the comic book that I was reading.


Brother Bara walked with some of his friends, I felt relieved when Brother Bara had passed, but I was also confused what I should do this week, this week, I just regretted making such an appointment with him.


I kept thinking about the previous words of Brother Bara who invited me to go together on the weekend, where today is already Saturday, it means that tomorrow I have to spend time on the weekend with a guy who has two characters like that, I'm really confused, in the midst of confusion, Audy came patting me on the shoulder and awakened me from a long daydream.


"Talita...have you been here a long time?" audy asked, though,


"ahhhh.no really, let's go home" I said as I walked first,


Me and Audy go hand in hand and as usual on the road there is just a silly behavior that Audy does but unfortunately I do not respond too much because it is still disturbed by the thought of Mr. Bara tomorrow, I wanted to tell Audy but I'm sure Audy wouldn't let me and she would do everything she could to derail it, and I couldn't do that, I had promised and had to keep what I agreed to, but I was too scared.

Arriving at home I immediately cleaned myself and laid my body on the bed holding my phone, I looked at the faces of my parents, tears just flowed, I missed them, I missed them, I want to hug them, now I feel how hard it is to live without my parents, lately they are always busy until there is no time to call me or just ask me news, I didn't tell them I was sick either, I just didn't want to worry them, but on the other hand I also want to feel what it's like to be worried about and get their attention back to what it used to be, I want to try calling them but I'm afraid to interrupt, I closed my phone and tried to sleep.


Just now that I closed my phone's eyes ringing fast I was happy because I thought it was a call from my father or my mother it turned out that when I saw it from an unknown number, I instantly turned it off because it was lazy, lazy, but unfortunately the number called again and I turned it off many times still, I raised it furiously.


"Halloo.....who?, if there is nothing important don't call again you are wrong!!!" I said with a high voice.


I gawked and immediately apologized nervously,


"a..eu...ohh, Brother Bara well, sorry I think the wrong person is connected, what's wrong sister?" I asked nervously,


"don't forget tomorrow at 10 I'll pick you up" said Brother Bara on the phone and then he hung up before I could say a word.


"Eh..wait.kak..kak...hallo..., aishhhh sucks at deciding my own schedule I also have my own activities" I said annoyed while hitting my bed full of emotions.


I could not sleep well thinking about the words of Brother Bara that kept ringing in my mind, not to mention the morning I was frustrated like this, I really did not feel like giving up, too many people bother me.


Because last night I had trouble falling asleep I finally woke up late, I also forgot my promise to Brother Bara, the sound of the alarm that I had set last night was not able to wake me up, I also forgot to, until the sound of the phone next to my ear woke me up and when I saw the clock on the phone turned out to be at 09:00 am, I immediately opened my eyes wide and hurried to go to the bathroom, immediately get ready and choose my best clothes, when I'm done I see a cell phone and so many missed calls from Brother Bara, I was confused as I walked back and forth and bit the small fingernail tip of my thumb.


"Aaaaa...now how, surely Brother Bara will be angry with me" said I worried, worried,


Suddenly there was a honking sound that was repeatedly heard squeaking ears outside, I immediately approached and came out of the house turned out to be in accordance with my guess it was a car that was parked in front of my house, I walked nervously out of the house locking the door and approached Kak Bara, I walked over, he got out of his luxury car dressed in neat clothes and his tall, stocky body sunglasses made him look perfect, a split second I was fascinated to see the appearance of Bara's brother who was much different from him at school, he came up to me and clasped my hand took me to the side of the car and opened the door and invited me to enter, I was too nervous and unable to say words could only follow the flow.


Brother Bara got into the car and started driving slowly out of the village towards the highway, I was confused to see Kak Bara who drove a car on the road to the city where I live, I wanted to ask him where he was taking me but I was too embarrassed and scared, there was no talk between the two of us during the trip until finally my curiosity paid off turned out to be kak Bara took me to a luxury cafe in the city center, I obviously know this area even though I have never been to this cafe but I often pass through this street, I also just realized that the city where I live has changed from before this cafe is also much better than I know, I know, kak Bara took me in and we sat at one of the tables directly next to the shop window so we could see the road full of vehicles, I sat opposite Kak Bara and we started ordering food and drinks, while waiting for the order to come I saw the atmosphere in the cafe which was so crowded many young people to adults who visited the cafe.


"Wahhh..ternyata this cafe is quite famous well" said I accidentally keceplosan,


"do you like this place? I can bring you here whenever you want" said Brother Bara with a smile that made me misbehave.
