Caitlin Emma Gibson's

°°°°°

The break time is over and all students return to their respective classes and continue the lesson.

Caitlin returns to class with Rachel and Stella. While in the corridor, Caitlin saw Joshua who was laughing freely with his friends. Unknowingly Caitlin joined in smiling at Joshua's happy laughter.

I finally saw that laugh again. Laughter that has been almost 3 years I have never seen.Thank God.

"Caitlin, why are you?" Stella asked who patted Caitlin's shoulder gently.

"Eh, what's up. It's yuk." Tukas Caitlin stepped back into the classroom.

When Caitlin was sitting in her place, Jasmin and I came back to her. Caitlin is left feeling uneasy with the presence of the three of them intending to leave but Grace blocks her hand from leaving her place.

"What the hell is it?" Caitlin asked who was starting to get upset with the behavior of The Red Velvet who was arbitrary - mena.

"And I told you not to join us? You will lose if you do not join us. We can make you hits at this school." Jasmin relaxed and sat down on Caitlin's table.

"Gue doesn't want to. And stop to disturb me! Tukas Caitlin pointed her index finger at Jasmin.

"Lo if you say polite little dong, new kid kok songong." Add Grace clutching Caitlin's chin rough.

"REMOVE!" Tukas Caitlin took Grace's grip off her chin.

Jasmin pulled Caitlin's hair tightly bound.

"How dare you? New kid." said Jasmin who emphasized the word 'New Child'. Caitlin who could not stand being treated like that pulled back the collar of Jasmin's shirt.

"Lo can't really? Don't bother me." Caitlin then brought her face closer to Jasmin's face.

"Why do you always bother Caitlin? If he doesn't want to join you guys well don't force dong!" timpal Stella who began to be annoyed to see the behavior of arbitrarily - mena Jasmin ddk on Caitlin.

"Not to interfere!" it was Fanny who made Stella shut up.

"But you're always nagging him you know what?" rachel shouted a little.

"Jasmin enough! If you want to be a hero, don't go to school." Shouted someone from behind Caitlin and pulled the girl's hand and told her to sit down. The man also sat in his place beside Caitlin. Well, what stopped Caitlin and The Red Velvet fighting was David. David is a cute, ugly, cold, and strange man according to Caitlin.

"Thank's" said Caitlin who made David look at her sharply.

Strange people say thank you even stared sharply. Snob!

Caitlin tidied the hair that had been messy due to the actions of Jasmin et al while grumbling. Without realizing it David noticed Caitlin's movements through the tail of his eyes.

Time has shown at two o'clock in the afternoon and indicates today's lesson is over. All the students rushed out of the school and Caitlin headed to the parking lot to see Andra's car parked. Caitlin is looking for Joshua and wants to take him home. Caitlin finds Joshua with her three friends, and the girl approaches them and takes Joshua home.

"Sister Willy, Alan's brother is waiting in the parking lot." His words made Joshua's friends turn their eyes to him.

"Lo what - what the hell. I said don't call me by that name in school and don't bother me!!. Lo deaf?" ketus Joshua "Dav I'm back with you." continued Joshua took Davin home.

Hearing that, Caitlin left them all and went to the parking lot. The girl got into Alan's car and said what Joshua said.

"Sister Willy went home with his friend." Caitlin looked at the window.

Joshua's words were still stirred in his hearing the words were simple but it made the girl's chest feel tight when she heard them. Caitlin stared blankly at the building she was passing through on the street.

"Caitlin's? What's wrong? " Task Alan who turned his face to the left. Caitlin looked at Alan and shook her head in response.

Upon arrival at Caitlin's house immediately ran towards her room. The girl rushed to change her school uniform with black jeans and a black leather jacket. Not to forget he took a white helmet, gloves and motor keys on the shelf where Alan, Joshua, and himself put their motorized equipment.

Caitlin turned on her engine and heated her motor first. Before he finally left the house using his favorite white ninja motorcycle. Caitlin intends to go to a cafe where she used to go when she was Junior High.

Caitlin parked the white ninja right in front of the cafe she meant earlier. Then he went in looking for an empty place. The cafe is called Cafe Trifix. This cafe used to be his subscription with his old friend, Gino.

"Cappuccino Chocolate one, same waffle pancake with vanilla ice cream one, well mba" said Caitlin smiled at the waiters.

"Okay, wait a minute, yeah." Said the waiters and was given an enthusiastic nod from Caitlin.

Caitlin pulled her phone out of her pants pocket and she looked for someone to contact. However, he was hesitant to do so because he was afraid that the person he contacted would not accept him. While Caitlin was still staring at her phone a waiters brought the order and put it on the table.

"Thank you, mba." Caitlin continued her activities.

Caitlin doesn't know what to do now. He wants to contact Gino, but he fears Gino is still angry with him and unwilling to accept him.

The Flasback

In class only left Caitlin who was tidying her book into a bag. Gino came to Caitlin who did not leave the classroom because the man had waited long enough.

"Cait, haven't you?" Ask Gino.

"Udah. Come on!" Take Caitlin with Gino's hand.

"So to the Trifix cafe." Ceplos Caitlin as they walk down the school corridor and are given a nod from Gino.

Upon arrival at the Trifix cafe they occupy a place in the corner of the cafe. And they exchanged stories with each other.

"Cait, I promise I'll always be there for you no matter how you are. I will always be beside you when you are sad or happy, I promise you will always take care of you and always make you happy." Gino's speech that moved Caitlin.

"Promise?" Tukas Caitlin held her pinkie in front of Gino. Gino happily hooked his pinky to Caitlin's little finger and said.

"promises. We are friends. And I'm the same you won't be separated" he said.

At that moment, Caitlin was happy to hear Gino's statement to her. He felt lucky to have a genuine friend like Gino. Who loves him wholeheartedly without fear of loss.

Flashbalck Off

Caitlin involuntarily dripped a clear liquid onto her cheek. At this time he feels everything runs aground swallowed by time and can only be a good memory. Without knowing when his best friend will return. Caitlin was once the happiest person when she was with Gino. Gino could always make Caitlin laugh off forgetting all the burdens on her mind. However, Caitlin is currently unable to find a comfort figure like Gino when she is hit by a complicated problem in her life. Problems that make him far from the people closest to him even the people he cares about. Because of a mistake he did not commit, he had to endure it for years, without knowing what to do.

Caitlin wiped the tears that soaked her cheeks. Without the girl knowing, there was a man watching her from one of the tables in the cafe. It had been 2 hours, but Caitlin remained in her position and struggled with her thoughts without touching the food and drink she ordered in the slightest. The girl looked straight ahead with a blank stare, with her left hand refuting her heavy head. Suddenly ringing in his mind about the words of Joshua while at school.

*Never call me by that name in school!

Don't ever bother me while at school*!

Maybe for others it was just a normal word, but for Caitlin the word was very piercing into her heart. And made his chest tight when he heard that. Sick? Granted, but he had to get used to the rude attitude and words Joshua had done to him. Caitlin let out a heavy sigh and grabbed her iphone on the table and unlocked it. Caitlin stared at the lazy iphone screen as she looked at the many incoming notifications that Alan sent for her. Not only that, there were almost 50 times Alan called him, but none responded to him. After that, Caitlin quickly turned off her iphone when Alan called her back, he was not wanted to be disturbed by anyone. Not want!. And don't want to!.

Then he got up from the chair, and walked towards the cashier to pay for his order. However, when he was about to pay the cashier said that his order had been paid by someone.

"Excuse me, I'd like to pay the billing table 17."

"Billing table 17 is paid, miss."

"Have paid? By who?"

"I don't know, miss. That guy didn't tell me his name."

"Male - male or female?"

"Male - man, miss"

"Oh, so thank you. Excuse me!"

Whoever paid the billing. Thank You's.
