That Handsome Ketos, my Beloved
Clarissa's Looking for Information
Morning at school
“Clar? Tumben you have come at this hour,” said Amanda surprised.
“Iya, I can wake up early now,” said Clarissa while putting her bag in her chair.
“Oo,” reply Amanda.
“Here is still quiet, do we take a walk out first?” ask Amanda when she sees the empty classroom and only a few students who have attended. That's also some who come early because they want to copy the PR of their friends. Amanda just shook her head when she saw the behavior of her friends.
“OK,” replied Clarissa.
“Manda,” call Clarissa who opens a conversation between them.
“Hmm?” sahut Amanda's.
“Udah how long have you been with Dinda?” clarissa asked in a tone that seemed so curious.
“Hmm.. 6 years. Why?” sahut Amanda's.
“Father,” Clarissa replied with a smile so Amanda wouldn't suspect her.
“For those 6 years, did your relationship continue as good as it is now?” ask Clarissa again.
“Hmm, not really. I hated it when I was in Junior High,” Amanda replied as she was.
“Why do you hate him? Did Dinda do you wrong that time?” asked Clarissa who was really curious this time.
“Because I think he set me up because my secret was exposed until one generation found out about it at the time. I misunderstood her and did not want to talk to her or listen to her explanation at all for 3 months. Back then, I was still childish,” explained Amanda with a faint smile as she recalled those times.
“But, Dinda is a very nice person,” he added with great emphasis.
“The bell has sounded, let's get into class!” take Amanda while pulling Clarissa's arm to follow her into the classroom before it's too late.
I haven't managed to find out any information that could make Dinda cry from her best friend. Should I ask Dinda directly? But, then, she can be suspicious of me, Clarissa said inwardly. He was still wondering what he would do next to find out what could make Dinda cry.
“I have to what?” clarissa Mumbles.

Afternoon in the school garden
It just so happens that I see it here, Inner Clarissa.
“Din,” call Clarissa when you see Dinda alone walking in the school garden after school.
“Iya?” sahut Dinda's.
"I want to see the blooming flowers again" replied Dinda, pointing to the blooming flowers in front of her. Dinda smiled as she lowered her body so she could smell the scent of the flower.
"It's pretty, huh?" asked Clarissa who was smiling after seeing the rose that had just bloomed.
"Yes," Dinda replied as she nodded slowly.
“Din, do you really like Ryan?” asked Clarissa who immediately expressed her intention of approaching Dinda.
“Why all of a sudden it was about that?” dinda was surprised.
“I just want to know. You like Ryan, ‘kan? If you like each other, why not go out?” ask Clarissa curiously. Who knew he could extract information from asking Dinda directly.
“A-I... don't want to get hurt for a while,” replied Dinda nervously. Clarissa remained silent to listen to Dinda's explanation even though her face looked puzzled.
“Cowok is handsome like he will only make me jealous every other girl close to him,” said Dinda. He could finally find a reason to explain his sentence earlier.
“You're right. By the way, when you were a child you like to play running?” clarissa asked to shift the subject.
“Like,” Reply Dinda.
“When you fall, you cry no?” sahut Clarissa's.
“Haha, not really. I was just grimacing,” Dinda replied with a laugh.
“Oo,” reply Clarissa while nodding slowly.
“If you? You crying?” Linda asked back.
“Iya,” replied Clarissa.
“You are so strong that you are not crying. Have you never cried all this time?” ask Clarissa
“Entertainment. But, I only cry when I'm alone,” replied Dinda with a sigh.
“Why? Sometimes you have to share your burden on others,” Clarissa replied.
“Father, I just don't want to repotin others,” replied Dinda while looking down.
“Din, you can tell me and the people you consider close. I'm always ready to listen to you,” Clarissa assured.
“Still, Clar,” says Dinda.
“Sama-sama,” reply Clarissa.
