AUREL looked confused. Of course this is because the seats that Danial used to occupy are now occupied by Haris.

"Danial asked me for a seat, he also reported the same homeroom teacher." Haris explained the doubts drawn through Aurel's expression.

"Oh that's it." Aurel looked back, to the place where Haris usually sat. There was no Danial there, only the man's backpack that was stored randomly on the table.

Haris watched around. Make sure no one is watching them. Feeling safe, Haris finally moved the corner of her lips. "Not to interfere, but I think you again have the same problem with Danial."

The silky sharpness shown by Aurel faded away in a matter of seconds. Change is very fast. From the silken look to the semringah. It should be admitted that Aurel is very talented to hide his feelings. "Did? I'm just as good as Danial." Aurel answered Haris's doubts, then forced his lips to still paint a slightly curved straight line.

"Lo nolak Danial?"

Aurel sighed softly. His attempts to pretend to be happy were fruitless. He didn't expect Haris to ask that far.

"Yes." Yeah."

"Loh, why?" Haris surprised. Since this morning he asked Danial but Danial still avoided. "You don't like him either."

Aurel flicked her shoulders then shook her head. Most likely Aurel was embarrassed to just confess his feelings to Danial in front of Haris.

Haris chuckles. Making Aurel look at him and his difficult-to-guess look. "Gue no more jokes, no need to laugh!" cynical Aurel.

"Lo is the same Danial, it makes no difference you know! Both like to hide feelings."

"You mean?" the girl's gaze dimmed.

"This is Rail, I may not be as smart as you can do math problems in just a few seconds. My brain is not capable of that. But what you need to know is that my brain is not as slow as it is about feelings. I can see love when you're squirming Danial."

"What the hell, Ris. Ngaco very." Aurel denied while hitting the arm of the man next to her.

...●●●●● ...

"SORRY," Aurel was a little surprised that his body had just hit someone. Even more surprising when raising his head so that his eyes collide with the iris of the owner of thick eyebrows. That man is Danial. "Danial," he said reflexively.

For a while the two face-to-face pitted their eyes. For a moment Aurel was stunned to see the twinkle in Danial's eyes that was laden with annoyance. Danial's never been this horrible before.

"Surge!" Danial uses a tone of dislike.

Aurel takes a step to the side, giving Danial access to the classroom.

Actually Aurel's goal was to drop out of class just to buy a drink in the cafeteria. Today he brought provisions under the pretext of not wanting to meet Danial. In addition to that reason, Aurel also decided to bring supplies because Leana would no longer invite him to eat together.

"Can you just walk away from the classroom door? This is not a public place!" Danial made Aurel jerk in shock. After Danial's cold response earlier, the girl named Aurel was still standing at the classroom door while staring at the flower pots lined up in front of the classroom.

Danial's voice that was too loud when reprimanding the girl made him a source of attention. Some of the students who were still around the class turned their heads before they finally chose to throw their faces away. They already know how Aurel and Danial are related, the last few days both of them did seem familiar but today the two are acting as usual - before the accident hit Danial.

Aurel. Danial managed to change his character as usual. Even his character today is many times more ruthless than Aurel knew.

Danial sniffed softly, his eyes moving seemingly to his guard. The man left the class.

Haris's new gaze after Danial's departure can be interpreted as a concerned look. From the bottom of his heart the man felt sorry to see Aurel getting a bluff from Danial. "Sorry yes! Maybe he has more thoughts," entertain Haris and follow Danial who is getting away.

Aurel just forced a smile. Somehow it felt so hard to continue his steps towards the cafeteria. Suddenly his legs weakened to just tread the tiles even longer. The girl turned around and sat back in her chair.

Without drinking water, Aurel scoops his mouth with rice and several pieces of sausage from his mother's concoction. Aurel was sitting in class but her mind was flying out of nowhere.

"Uhuk," Aurel coughed. He needs to drink at least for now.

The girl came out of class to spit out her mouth.

Aurel looked up, within seconds his smile vanished replaced by a flat look. Honestly, he was hoping that Leana or maybe Danial would give him the drink. It seems that it is difficult for the universe to side with Aurel even this time.

"Take the Rail, I'm sincere." Netta - one of her classmates - increasingly offered the drinks she bought in the cafeteria.

Aurel rose to leave his squatting position, "Thanks ya Net." Aurel was about to enter the classroom when Netta held him back, "Why Net?" one eyebrow raised.

"Lo has a problem with Leana? I've noticed that you've had two days of mutual em-dieman." Netta is Leana's sitting mate, it's only natural that she's suspicious when she witnesses the two acting like strangers.

"It's just a misunderstanding."

Suddenly Netta raised both hands, clasping Aurel's shoulders. He gave an empathetic look, "Pipetan finished the problem! I'm so sad to see you guys are in-dieman like that. You two are like stamps, where there is Aurel there is Leana, and vice versa."

"It's gonna be better soon."

"Let's be calm, I'm ready to help you if you need help!" Netta offered herself.

"Thank you, but I can design all this anyway."

...●●●●● ...

A black car stopped in front of Aurel. Shortly afterwards the car glass was down so Aurel saw clearly Wirawan aka his father Danial in front of the wheel. "Eh, um Wira."

"Aurel waiting for an invitation?" Wirawan then published a smile.

Aurel tidied up the bangs that slightly blocked his view, "Yes Om. Aurel is waiting for Nakula." Aurel had a chance to steal a glance towards the back seat. Danial was there, stuffing his ears with earphones. His head was narrowed, while his eyes closed enjoying the song that was playing in his ears.

"Get it! Let Om take you home."

Aurel actually wanted to sit in front side by side with the Hero who was in charge of driving the car, just that the seat next to the man was filled with some office equipment that would certainly make Aurel uncomfortable.

"Sit in the back, why, right?" Hero asked.

"What the hell, Om."

Aurel opened the door and sat down next to Danial who was still closing her eyes.

"About here there's a mini market, right?" while driving Wira raised her chin slightly looking at Aurel through the inner rearview.

Aurel thought for a moment before looking up from the chair that was blocking his view. No less quickly his hand was raised pointing in one direction, "Fifty meters from the monument in front there, Om."

The car came back to a stop after arriving at the place Aurel was referring to. "Om stay tight yeah, want to buy your aunt's deposit first." The hero takes off the seatbelt and leaves the car.

After Wirawan died of course in the car there was only Aurel and also Danial. In the first second Aurel admitted the awkward feeling of being buried in his body. Not gradually because in the next second he began to believe that the man next to him was indeed asleep.

Aurel had not even had time to send Nakula a message when she felt the burden on her right shoulder increase. It seems like Danial was too deep to unconsciously make Aurel's shoulder as a pillow.

The silent atmosphere made Aurel able to hear the sound of his own heart beating. Dag-dig-dug-in. That is how it sounds when it is written in words.

Aurel sighed trying to react to it calmly. In such a situation all it takes is a careful attitude. If reckless the worst possibility is to get a bluff from a Danial.

Honestly, Aurel even prefers to meet the mothers of the right winger turn left rather than witness the wrath of a Danial. Danial is too scary when angry. Amukan Mom kos lost with him.

You can definitely Rail! he said in his heart.

Aurel gulped his saliva down strongly. Trying to calm his nervousness. Slowly he lifted Danial's head off his shoulders. He planned to return the position of the man's head back to where it was before. But shit, fate has made Aurel make a mistake again.

Bruk!

Danial's head hit the window. "Awww" Danial grimaced as he held his head. His eyes opened slowly. The look that had blur back focus. "Well, you're in my car?" it took only a split second for Danial to turn his gaze into a monstrous monster.

"So gini, pas lo sleep bokap you ask me to go up to the car. I tried to refuse but you insisted." Aurel replied without making an eye fight with the man in front of her. He was too scared to do it.

"Keep me to where? O yes why did I get sucked up to the cake earlier? Do you intentionally want to hurt me?" Danial poked Aurel with a question.

Aurel chuckled, "First, bokap lo again buy goods in the mini market. Second, you sucked when I reinstated the position of your head as before. Before you beat me up, you should know that you first made my shoulder as a pillow. Third, I'm not that low until I intentionally harm people." Aurel answered every question asked by Danial in detail.
