"Kids, today I want to tell you about your duties. Please listen carefully."

"Okay, Miss Rosa."

"The head of the school gave you a new assignment. Your job is to make a product and then ask for testimonials from others. You can't ask a classmate. Next month you will present your duties. Our class is the only class selected. So, next month you have a presentation in front of the school hall. So, please prepare well. Do you understand?"

"We understand, ma'am."

"You will work with the group. One group of five. You can decide for yourself the group but there must be men and women. You will now define the group and make the product. If the time is not enough, you have to do it outside of class."

"Good, mom."

"Din, the three of us together, yuk!" take Amanda and Ayu compact.

"okay."

"I'll take you with me as well" Amanda said.

"Excuse me."

"Can I join you?" ask Leo.

"Of course you can." Ayu replied. But, Ayu permits to leave the group and create a new group with Rangga, Samuel, etc.

"Who do you want to be with, Ayu?" ask Amanda when Ayu's permission to leave the group.

"I'm with Samuel and Rangga. The rest I'll look for."

"We still lack one more person." said Amanda.

"Can you take Clarissa with you?" sahut Ayu while sighing.

"Ah, that's right. Thank you, Ayu." said Amanda.

"Why don't you join them?" bryan asked Ayu.

"How can I join them if there's a Leo?"

"What happened to Leo?"

"It's okay. Never mind, you want to join our group?"

"Sure." said Bryan. Dinda's group contains Dinda herself, Leo, Clarissa, Amanda, and Budi. Meanwhile, Ayu's group was finally full. There were Ayu, Rangga, Bryan, Samuel, and Brenda.

Cring..Kringg..Cringggg

The school bell rings. The students are getting ready. Some are preparing to follow the extracurricular, go to the tutoring place and go home to each other.

"You're planning on asking your upperclassmen and upperclassmen?" ask Leo.

"Yes." said Dinda.

"Then can I ask Ryan first?"

"Ryan's? Will he agree to give us a testimonial?" ask Amanda.

"Why? Aren't you his childhood friend?" chirps Dinda.

"He is a man whose temperament is easily changed. Even if I'm his friend, I still can't be sure he'll help us." Amanda explains.

"That's absolutely right." Leo said.

"So, how'd you like?" ask Budi.

"Of course you can. I will coerce and plead with him." Leo said.

"Why do you insist on asking her for testimony?" ask Budi wonder.

"Just calm. He'll give it to her. Sure." said Leo with a faint smile on his face.

...****************...

"Ryan." someone called him from behind.

"What?" sahut Ryan's.

"Can you try this product and give a testimonial?" ask Leo.

"I? Why?" sahut Ryan's.

"What do you mean why?" ask Leo wonder.

"You can ask others for help." Ryan said.

"But I want from you another new one" replied Leo.

"Huh. Not today." said Ryan.

"OKAY. When can you?" ask Leo.

"Eitherway. I'mtired. I'm going home first. See you later." replied Ryan.

"What's wrong with her?" ask Leo to himself.

...****************...

In a magnificent private reading room, there was a handsome man who was thinking out loud.

"Ah. That's right."

"Stupid! Why are you thinking about it again?" Ryan was cursing himself. He still imagined about his moment of togetherness with Alexa and Leo.

*On the balcony of Alexa residence*

"Dear."

"Hmm?"

"You're still mad at me?"

"No. There, you play the same Leo as much." turned your head in the opposite direction.

"Dear." Ryan did not answer. Alexa stood up and ran to the end. Ryan was still indifferent to her. But, when Alexa began to almost jump Ryan immediately ran and caught him.

"Are you crazy? Are you stupid or crazy? How dare you jump down there." pointing down.

"Why baby?" alexa Sahut.

"What do you mean why? You want to die?"

"If I die, will you forgive me?"

"What! You can't die. I won't let you die." Ryan yelling. Alexa just smiled and turned her gaze toward the city in front of her house.

"You know what?" Alexa asked.

"What do you mean?" reply Ryan.

"I, ALEXA CAROLINE, TODAY I WANT HEAVEN AND EARTH TO TESTIFY THAT I LOVE RYAN JONATHAN SO MUCH!" scream Alexa.

"Hey. Are you really crazy?" ask Ryan. He just took a long breath.

"I'm crazy if you won't forgive me. Please forgive me, will you? Ah, trust me." Alexa whining.

"alright. I forgive you, Satisfied?" sahut Ryan's.

"Thank you dear." Alexa and Ryan embraced while enjoying the beautiful scenery in plain sight.

"Wah wow. Someone was showing off the intimacy here." Someone suddenly came from behind and laughed out loud.

"Leo?" ask Alexa.

"Leonard, what are you doing here?" ask Ryan with his face. Ryan immediately took off his embrace from Alexa.

"Mahahaha." Leo is still broken.

"That's it. Its alright. Just go ahead." continued Leo. Ryan just stared at him.

"Haha yes it was um..I'm sorry I can't control this. Haha. Ryan please don't kill me" Leo said.

"Who wants to kill you? Besides you don't have a boyfriend so dying isn't a problem for you?"

"Hey. I know I'm single but that doesn't mean you can be with me!" Leo yelled at Ryan with a laugh.

"Just ignore him. He's crazy" Ryan told Alexa. They both hugged again.

"Good God they hugged like worms in front of me" Leo told himself.

"Leo, are you really lonely?" ask Alexa.

"Sometimes I feel that way." Leo said.

"Then find a girlfriend." said Alexa while laughing.

"Yes, find a boyfriend. If necessary, just download the match-finder application and go on a blind date there." said Ryan.

"Suell up." Leo can only move.

"Huh! Ryan, realize. You must be aware! He left you, why do you still think about him?" ryan grumbled to himself. He returned to reading the results of the OSIS meeting this afternoon. Ryan hasn't slept all night.

...****************...

"Good morning, Ryan."

"Morning."

"Ryan, when will you be able to testify?"

"I don't know."

"Come on." Leo begged.

"Why? You only want to be friends with me if I help you?" sigh Ryan.

"No. Not so." said Leo.

"Who are you with?" ask Ryan.

"What's? Don't you usually not want to know?"

"Jawab what a hard thing!"

"I'm a bunch with Amanda, Budi, Dinda, and Clarissa."

"What?"

"Why?"

"No Ayu and Rangga?"

"Why? I also don't know why they didn't join us."

"So, when did you agree to help us?"

"Why? Because if I'm the one giving the testimonial of your product, it's gonna sell?"

"Hehe. Can you also give me your autograph?" Ryan did not answer.

"Later 4pm come to my house with your group of friends. If it's too late, you'll..."

"Yes. I-i understand. See you later." Leo replied in a bitter tone. Ryan did not answer. He went straight to his class.

...****************...

"Welcome, Mr. Leo." The butler at Ryan's house greeted me kindly.

"How are you, Mr Good? No need to call me that pathetic."

"I am good sir. I heard that Mr and Mr. Ryan had already made an appointment before. Are you alone?"

"No. There are 4 more. It's just that I'm the one who arrived."

"Okay, Mr. Leo." Pak Bagus directed his hand towards the two female servants to give food and drink as a snack.

"This is sir, please enjoy" said one of the maids.

"Thank you. Just put it on the table." Leo said with a faint smile.

"Good sir."

"Then, we'll excuse yourself." Mr. Good and the two maids who were with him left from the presence of Leo.

"Hey Leo."

"Ryan!"

"Have you waited long?"

"Not for long. How's it going? Must be tiring, not after an OSIS meeting still have to help me? Sorry yes."

"Well.." Ryan had yet to finish his sentence, suddenly Dinda appeared out of nowhere. Ryan's eyes fell on Dinda.

Wow, she's so pretty. She wears a t-shirt, denim, and jeans to my house? What perfume is this.I think I'm familiar with the aroma. Ah, true. This must be Chanel's perfume. Why is she wearing this expensive perfume to my house. Should I work with him, right?

"Hello, Leo, Ryan. Am I late?"

"No, you're not late."

"No, you came just in time." Leo and Ryan both said.

"Just in time?" Leo asked. He and Dinda looked very confused.

"Haha.. Sure do. You said it must be tiring after the OSIS meeting still has to help you. But, I didn't help you. I'm helping Dinda. Isn't that right, Din?" Ryan blinked one eye.

"Pulse..That's.. Ja. You did it to help me as well as my group." Dinda answered nervously.

"Why are you nervous?" Ryan asked.

"What's? Me nervous? Sure didn't. I'm not nervous." replied Dinda.

"Ehem..Leo's." Ryan coughs intentionally.

"What's? You sick?" ask Leo.

"No. I agree to help you." Ryan pulled Leo's hand away from his group mates. Coinciding with this incident, Amanda, Budi, and Clarissa come together.

"On one condition."

"What's that?"

"Don't tell your friends about this."

"alright. What condition?"

"Tell Dinda that I'll just give her my autograph if she agrees to go to my house again tomorrow."

"So you said don't tell my group of friends, but Dinda's a friend of mine!"

"Ah. The point is just tell her that."

"Gee. What the hell does this mean? You guys want to date?"

"Yes." said Ryan.

"What! You're serious!"

"Don't think weird! You want to be lied to!"

"What do you want to see him for?" This question from Leo makes Ryan really confused about what to answer. Ryan tried hard to rack his brain. He was looking for a reasonable reason.

"I. Yeah, as always. Of course it's because of the business between my father and his father."

"really? Why aren't you guys just being betrothed?"

"Hey watch your talk!"

"Yes. I get it."

"alright. What should I give testimony for?"

"Video and photo."

"OKAY. Is there any more?"

"Signature on the photo. How's it?" Dinda asked.

"OKAY. Let me try the product."

"Leos. Did you get this idea from Alexa?"

"Why is that?"

"It's okay. All right, I get it. I can be recorded now."

"You don't need practice?" ask Amanda.

"Hey. Have you forgotten who I am? I'm Ryan.."

"Yes, yeah, yeah. You are Ryan Jonathan. The most handsome, clever, and charming man in the whole country."

"It's good if you remember. Keep remembering."

"Ehem."

"It seems like she's jealous now." Leo chimed in.

"Hey. You don't understand the feeling because you haven't experienced." Be able to answer in a flat tone.

"Honey. I'm sorry, dear." Amanda hugged Budi in front of everyone.

"My eyes are stained again" said Leo.

"Ah. It's a good thing they don't kiss." Clarissa said.

"Hey you guys. My house is not a place to have sex with a girlfriend!" snapped Ryan.

"We know Ryan. That's why you're looking for a girlfriend so you don't feel lonely as long as Priscilla's sister is outside." Amanda said.

"Hey you don't have to be so smart. Advise Leo too."

"We are not advising. We just tell." replied Budi.

"alright. Quickly record me."

"1,2,3. Action!" said Leo.

"Hello everyone. I'm Ryan Jonathan. Today I will give a testimonial about this I'malwayslovingU product. The material is very simple. This product is made from fine flannel and thin threads of purple, red, and blue. blablabla..." Ryan finished the video without any mistakes. The result is perfect in just one video capture.

"Well, Ryan. You are amazing! No wonder all women fall for you." Amanda praised Ryan.

"That's absolutely right. I am a nearly perfect man. Lucky woman who will get my heart later." Ryan spoke while looking at Dinda.

"Ehem." Budi can only pretend to cough to end the conversation between Amanda and Ryan.

"Ryan, I suggest you find a boyfriend. If you don't want to be complicated, then you can choose between the two of them."

"What?" Dinda shocked. Same with Clarissa.

"Haha.. I was just kidding, guys. No need to be that serious." said Budi.

"Huh." Clarissa and Dinda sighed at the same time.

"Now photos are. Say Cheese." Amanda directs.

"Gee. Very handsome." said Amanda.

"See this. All the pictures are perfect." Amanda handed her camera to Dinda, Leo, and Clarissa.

"Indeed he's always that handsome." Leo said.

"Wow, amazingly handsome!" clarissa Mumbles.

Diliat-liat he is handsome, but still not my taste. Inner Dinda. Ryan watched as Dinda felt strange. How could Dinda not praise him at all? Is his taste really bad?

"Because it's all done, we have to go home now. It's 19:00 now. See you tomorrow, Ryan." Amanda said. Ryan led them to the lobby door.

"We go home first. Thanks Ryan for today. Sorry to bother you" said Leo.

"Yes." said Ryan. He went back into his house.

"Where are the others?" ask Dinda. Apparently everyone went home and Dinda was going to the toilet.

"They're home."

"I'll excuse you, too. See you later."

"Wait!"

"Why?"

"You.. These. Whether you wear it or not." Ryan handed him a luxury pocket from the brand's famous brand, Chanel.

"Thank you. But, why are you giving this to me?"

"The perfume you're wearing now is Chanel's perfume, right? Just put this on."

"Thank you. I'm sorry." Dinda immediately walked out. Ryan followed behind but eventually decided to stop.

"Din, see you later! Remember about the terms of the agreement!" Ryan reminded.

"Yes. See you later."
