_________________________

“can yes.. please..” said Liza in front of Zaldi while pleading.

“no ah I do not want.” said Zaldi indifferently, but he was eager to give it to the tomboy in front of him.

“alah” seemed to give up Liza stopped begging the boy in front of her who she had liked since 1st grade SD. turned around and rushed away.

The unyielding Liza asks her again to her best friend Zaldi who is also her own best friend.

“please. yes, we are friends, friend” said Liza pleaded with Dinda who was busy eating her favorite fried noodles. Dinda stopped her activity, swallowed a mouthful of water and turned to the tomboy next to her.

“thinks the same Zaldi.” he said flat. then continued his delayed meal.

Liza who gave up standing “lah” then went to the field.

“Liza..!!” feeling called Liza turned.

“apa..” he said flatly staring at the man in front of him named Kevin.

“play ball yuk... Our team is short of people nih.” he said begging Liza to look behind the man approximately 10 people are hoping to be anxious. Liza looked at Kevin again.

“sorry, again not mood” said Liza flat and passed away going to class.

Kevin was silent and felt something strange about the boy.

Liza sat speechless in class as she flipped through the blank sheets of books.

“ohayo gozamaisu” he gasped in shock when he found out next to him a boy was standing in front of his desk with a sweet smile.for a while he normalized his rapid heartbeat in shock.

“ohayo,” he said flat. seeing the unusual gurgle of Liza the man smiled.

“you why?” said lightly.

“ah.. no Kazune, I'm lazy to talk now” that guy named Kazune laughed.

“doesn't you usually moody like this, what's with you?” Liza turned her gaze the other way.Reading her back to Kazune's face.

“apa because your value is down”

“not”

“I said no..”

“apa because Zaldi”

“t-no” Liza's face meets red, despite not seeing it. Kazune knew what his best friend was feeling.

“do you want the phone number.”

“ya.. I was trying to” Liza sober up, then shut her own mouth. Kazune smiled broadly.

“please try to explain to me”

“ehm.”

“don't be nervous, I've become your best friend right.”

“tapi.”

“huh. you are this.” Kazune is impatient, grabs Liza's hand and drags her through the hallways of the school and becomes the attention of the other children. The embarrassed Liza immediately revolted, but was not ignored by Kazune.

“what are you doing stop....!!!” say Liza loudly.

suddenly he was standing in front of Zaldi.

“Zal, Liza have your phone number.” Zaldi confused Liza staring at Kazune horror, there would soon be bloodshed. Zaldi nodded slowly and smiled.

“it turns out you didn't give up on Liza, actually I didn't give you that because I didn't have HP, so I didn't have any.” when the children were busy long - oh Liza had disappeared with Kazune from that place. turns out they fled to a class that was quiet.

“what are you doing?” look at Liza growled.

“bring you to Zaldi” he said innocence.

“apa, you answered him lightly, I was almost humiliated”

“but at least you know what reason he was not given a phone number by him” Liza pensively moment to realize that Kazune has sat – on his bench and read a novel.

slowly he stepped into his seat sitting and daydreaming. Kazune sighed, heavily.he felt sore when he knew his best friend who became the reason for this feeling.He should know, this feeling will never be reciprocated. maybe he had to hide his deep-seated feelings deep into the depths of his heart locking it with a big padlock then the key was thrown into the middle of the deep sea. he must know, he just wanted his best friend happy. Liza was happy, she was happy, it was that simple.
