The Back To 2012

26. Dilemmas

For the next day, according to Winter's plan. Spring and Winter first go to school before they go camping on the beach. And as usual, they went to school together. Only, Spring and Winter go on foot without a bike, because Winter's bike tire is leaking.

"Sorry for making you walk" Winter said.

Spring smiled. "Why apologize, aren't we used to going to school on foot."

Yes, although walking, but according to Spring is very fun, because it can be together longer with Winter. Which is possible when in school, where can Spring linger with Winter. When at school, in addition to studying Winter will spend more time with his male friends, while Spring will spend more time with Lucy.

Before long they walked, suddenly a black offroad car stopped near them while turning on the horn. Winter and Spring immediately stopped their steps. Winter may be surprised and curious about the owner of the car. However, another case with Spring, he was not too surprised and curious. Because the owner of the car is a person who always bothers him anywhere and anywhere, who else if not Skylar.

Shortly after Skylar opened the windshield, Winter buckled in annoyance. Winter quickly regained her legs while pulling Spring's hand.

Like yesterday, Skylar continues to follow Spring by slowing down the speed of his car, so that the car can be in line with Spring's steps.

"Spring, get in my car. You'll be very tired if you walk" Skylar said.

Maybe for Spring with Skylar to give her a ride, it would be much better if Winter came along too. Because Winter hasn't fully recovered from the illness, and maybe the one who will be very exhausted while walking it is Winter, not Spring. Even if Spring doesn't want to take a ride from Skylar, he must accept it for Winter's sake.

Spring quickly held Winter back. "What if we just get in Skylar's car."

There's no way Winter's gonna ride in the car of the man who made her ride yesterday. Falling in his self-esteem if he had to ride a luxury car from the person he hates the most.

Winter steps back and pulls Spring's hand. "Walking in the morning will be much healthier than having to ride a car like a spoiled child."

Another case with Skylar who had expected the most woman in his tribe was sitting next to him.

"Hey Winter, Spring wants to get in the car with me. If you want to walk, walk on your own don't make my women tired because of you" Skylar said.

Spring needs to persuade Winter to take the Skylar. But just persuading it is impossible to make a stubborn Winter willing to obey his persuasion. Spring also needs to lie so that Winter is not too high to protect his pride.

"It seems like my feet are sore. We'd better take a ride from Skylar."

Winter. "Would we ride a Skylar, the distance to school is not too far away. Isn't walking from house to school common."

"Hm, I don't know, it looks like my legs hurt today." Spring at all costs persuades Winter to take the Skylar.

The Spring action can make Winter worried. Even if his pride falls, for Spring, Winter finally wants to ride the Skylar. However, Skylar has a condition that if Winter rides his car, Spring must sit next to him. But that condition doesn't apply, when Spring wants to open the car door, Winter immediately precedes him. And in the end it was Winter who sat beside Skylar.

"I told Spring to sit in front of me instead of you" Skylar said in an annoyed tone.

"Important that Spring is riding in your car. Sitting in the back or front seat, you will still go to school with him" Winter said with a flat face.

"What Winter says is, I still go to school with you" Spring said as she entered the backseat.

Skylar can only rough his breath, because if he tells Winter to get down, Spring will likely come down from his car.

When Spring arrived at school, he went to class alone. Winter goes to the bathroom and Skylar must return to her car to retrieve her wallet left in the car. Spring had to walk alone to class.

When he arrived at the class, the state of the class was still very quiet. Maybe because Spring is too early to go to school. Spring only finds Lucy sitting alone in class.

Lucy snuggles. "It seems I came too early."

Surprisingly, the look on Lucy's face looks sad, and her eyes also look swollen like crying. Spring was also curious about his best friend.

"Hm, are you okay?"

Lucy smiled, but her smile looked forced. "I'm doing fine. You think I look like a guy who's not okay."

Spring grabbed Lucy's hand. "If you have a problem, tell it freely, I'll be ready to listen to it. And if I have to, I'll be ready to help you."

However, just as Lucy was about to put out her words, suddenly Skylar and Winter came to class simultaneously. Those words were immediately drowned.

"Hm, can I stay at your house tonight" said Lucy who seemed to switch the topic of her chat with Spring.

Spring was astonished, the problem of what really happened to Lucy to make it difficult to tell it.

"Wait... Wait for... You haven't told me anything. So what problem are you having?"

"I'll tell you later at your house."

If Lucy stays, Winter's camping plan must be cancelled. After all, Winter may not have fully recovered. And Spring has to listen to Lucy's problems. Because one of Spring's missions is to repair her relationship with Lucy and find out why Lucy moved home and school, right on Spring's birthday.

Spring approached Winter. "It looks like today we can't camp. How about we go on school holidays."

"Why can't we leave today?"

"Your condition has not fully recovered, and today Lucy will be staying at my house."

Winter. "I'm healed, see my body is very healthy. Hm, if you don't want to go with me, I'll go alone."

Spring was made a dilemma, whether he should choose to go with Winter or choose to listen to Lucy's story. The only option is to take Lucy to camp. Spring can camp with Winter and listen to Lucy's story.

Spring comes back to Lucy. "It looks like today I won't be home, because today I'm going camping with Winter. What if you just come with us."

Lucy smile. "You're going camping with Winter. If I come, then you can't enjoy alone time with Winter." Lucy then whispered. "This is your chance to express your feelings to Winter."

"How about you, won't you tell me something."

"My story doesn't really matter. You can go camping with Winter, don't mind me."

"really?"

Lucy nodded. "Of course."

Yes, even though Lucy allows Spring to be with Winter, it does not mean that Spring is not curious about the problems that occur to Lucy. Because Lucy must have a very difficult problem to tell anyone. Just like in his previous life, Lucy is often moody.

Spring must figure out the cause of Lucy's often moody. Maybe after camping, Spring will spend time with Lucy so he can freely tell it to Spring.
