The Boy Next Window's

A Debt of Promise and a Question

From: 0812xx

Questionnaire done. I wait for your appointment;)

I almost choked on my own drink while reading a message from Abi. Shit, why did I forget that I had a promise debt with him? Shit, shit, shit!

"Lo's tape, Ndro?" I glanced at Kanasya lazily. Exhaling loudly and leaning my back on the sofa in front of the tv kos Vio. While the new boarding owner came out of the bathroom with a towel wrapped around his head. The four of us were gathering at the Vio. Not bad, rarely can we gather complete like this. It was also because today Kanasya's office was a holiday. And Keyna, as usual, was willing to cancel her way with her boyfriend.

"Gue forgot to have an appointment." Reply lazily.

"What promise?" Keyna who just returned from the kitchen boarding Vio joined nimbrung. He put a glass of vanilla milk on the table and a packet of potato chips.

I rubbed my whole face and sighed softly. "Promise to hug Abi."

"Huh?! Hug Abi? Meaning what?" The activity of wearing Vio lotion stopped as soon as I heard my statement.

"What the hell? How do I not understand?" Keyna frowned.

"Suddenly Abi anyway! Fancied are you the same? I said what too. Don't be too ben—"

"Gue's dating Abi." I cut Kanasya's sentence straight away. The reaction of my three best friends was exactly what I thought. No one thought. It's about the agreement with Abi, I didn't tell them. Actually, not yet. So, I thought, maybe it's the right time—or not.

"For God's sake! What for you??!!"

"Just tell you what, Ndro! Seriously???"

Kanasya scooped my face with both hands. Bring my eyes to look at him. Kanasya's sudden movements made me blink my eyes for a moment.

"Say me if you're kidding me!!"

Keyna pressed the back of her palm against my forehead. "No. He's not hot. Healthy means."

I took both of Kanasya's hands off my face and chipped away in annoyance. Seems not. I chose the wrong time to tell my three best friends.

"Why the hell on a big scene?" I muttered in annoyance as I rubbed my right cheek slowly.

"Yes, clearly it's a scene!!! Where there you suddenly told us if you were dating Abi. As far as we are, you're so happy with Abi. But, why all of a sudden you're both end up together?"

"agree! I'm kayaking, *****?! Really serious?!"

"Lo has a story debt to us," said Vio, glancing at his wall clock. "We still have a lot of time for your story. Isn't that right, Key? Huh?" Both are at the same time.

"Yup, you have to tell a story. Now." Now."

My phone's vibrating. A message from Abi came back in.

From: 0812xx

I'm otw plg. I wait for dikos.

After reading it, I grimaced slowly. I looked one at a time at my three best friends and smiled blandly.

"his power.. Can't now." Imbuhku.

"No alesan can't."

"News now!"

"News, stories, stories!" Kanasya has been pumping by voicing the same word every second. Makes me raise my hand for surrender.

"OK, okay. I'm telling you now. But, just short. I was waiting for Abi."

"Ciee... What do you want, Ndro?"

"A really new thing. I was waiting for Abi. Cie.."

"What story is it? The chunky!" My threat. The three fell silent and put up a position near me. All eyes were on me with a hopeful look.

"OKAY. So, the point is, I'm the same Abi dating because it involved a garbage agreement that I'm sure according to you all is garbage too. Okay, so, I'm the same Abi doesn't actually date. We both use each other. And I did all this for Aksa. Got it? Bye yeah. I want to go back. Hye!"

I can't get rid of the disappointed looks of my three best friends. Vio even pulled my hand back to sit down. But, I quickly let go.

"Later. I'll tell you the details. Now, I really have to go. This is for the sake of my script. Okay well? Hye!" Promised a story next time by me they finally want to let me go.

From outside Vio's room, I still had time to hear their screams.

"Gue wait!!!"

"Watch boong!!!"

"No, I didn't think!!!!"

I responded only by shaking my head and smiling thinly. Finished wearing my flatshoes, I rushed down and got into the car. Towards the cost, meet Abi. My mind is currently focused on the word one word. Hug.

What's it like if I hug Abi? Okay, relax! It's just a hug. Not more. Three seconds is also over. Relax, Gem, relax!

Even though I was annoyed half-dead with Abi and obviously didn't like her. Thinking about the fact that I would soon have to pay the debt by hugging her made my feelings mixed up.

My phone's back in the embroidery. This time it was not a message from Abi. Except phone! I cleared my throat for a few seconds. Set my voice intonation to look ordinary.

"Gue said wait for the dikos. Why don't you exist? There's no car?" I haven't had time to say anything. Abi has already raced, making my high blood instantly rise.

"Get it, bring it. I'm from kos Vio. It's on the way home."

Abi was heard holding back his smile. "Oh, I thought you'd run away because you were afraid to hurt me."

"I was that wily to blur everything?"

"Who knows. Good if you don't intend to run away. Watch out for escape. This is a questionnaire that I threw away."

"Yes, baffles!"

"Okay, my dear, I'm waiting in front of the cost."

"Lod." I cut off the phone.

--

Abi was really waiting for me in front of the cost. Both of his hands were already stretched out upwards as if preparing to receive my embrace. Seeing that, I just turned my two eyeballs and walked towards him. Regardless of both hands that were ready stretched out. I even put my right hand.

"Where's the hug?"

"Where is my questionnaire?"

"Hug first. new questionnaire."

I'm thieving. "No. Kali aja lo boong. He knows my questionnaire's still empty hopping."

"Udah filled. Suer."

"Where's the evidence?"

"Bi!!!" I started to get angry with his behavior.

"Yes, yes, I take." Abi walked over to his car and took my questionnaire sheet. "Well, can you see if it's filled?"

I glanced at him quickly and folded my hands together in front of my chest. "That's the first sheet. Where are the others?"

"Well, do I show you one paper this much?"

"Yes, scanning. Cepet. Hunting, point to me."

Abi snorted in annoyance and grumbled softly. "Begging for a hug is hard like this what else."

"What did you say?!"

"Abi shook her head quickly. Pretending not to understand. "No. There was a plane passing by."

"Where is the plane passing. The pilot didn't look at it."

"Where did the pilot look? Duh, really my girlfriend. Come kiss first. My gemes are the same lo."

"Lo want to keep babbling what pointing to me that questionnaire? The longer you babble, the longer my embrace the longer you dapet."

Telak, Abi forms a surrender face. "Yes. Okay, okay. Nih." Abi quickly showed a glimpse of the pile of paper. Although it was quick, I could see that the questionnaire had actually been filled in.

"One more time, Bi. I didn't look around." Know that this matter is almost over and I have to keep my promise. I'm stalling.

"Yes, okay." Fortunately Abi complied and showed it to me again. "Done. Whahuh? Want to ask again?"

I frowned and looked at Abi with a nano-nano look. "Don't ask me to show you again if your goal is just to make time."

God fucking. Do you know that I am so!

"Who would ask again!" I pretended not to accept.

"Jude here." I took a step forward with doubt. Seeing Abi's free-moving hand telling me to come closer. "Cursed, it's hard to be told to suck."

"What the hell? Am I a chicken who wants to feed me?"

"Oh, yes, my chick, here's ngedeket. If I don't want to suck, I don't feed you." The distance between us was only a few inches. Despite my doubts and mixed feelings, I stretched out my hands and wrapped the body part around Abi's waist.

"Loe. Onion." My head only touched Abi's chest. To reach her shoulder, I had to tiptoe a little and then just talk right next to her ear.

"Bawel gini lo's girlfriend too, right?"

"One.. Two.."

"Lo what?"

"Maximum 7 seconds we hug," I replied quickly. "Three.. Four.."

"Ye, nothing in our agreement hugs 7 seconds. Oh wow!"

"Five," I closed my eyes. "These are written only in a hug. So, it's up to you how long. I am lucky I gave it 7 seconds. Six!"

"Nggak—"

"Seven. Done," both of my hands wrapped around Abi's waist were about to let go. But Abi first held my wrist behind her.

"A little while."

After holding my wrist for a while. He brought my body back into his arms. His hand stroked my back slowly.

"Udah. The beauty in you is not good in me."

"Now" Abi lowered his head and spoke right into my ear. "Lo the undercook. I said, just a moment again."

"Gue doesn't want to. No release!" I rebelled and tried to let go of both my hands. Again with me doing that, Abi tightened his hold.

"You are fragrant. I'm so at home." Abi held back his laughter when he heard a snort at me.

"Depart, woi!!!"

"promises. Five more seconds. Lo can itung from—" Abi saw the watch on her wrist. "Now."

"OKAY. Fine. Five seconds!!! If not off. I scream!" Abi chuckled softly at my cry. "One.." I started counting.

"Lo alus's hair is very good."

"Two.."

"What perfume?"

"Three.."

"Gue wants to buy. Let's just feel the same way you keep."

"Four.."

"Lou's heart is very fast. Deg-degan huh?" I don't mind the question of unqualified questions and continue the count.

"Five. It's finished!" This time, Abi allowed me to take off the twists of my hand. "Lo yes!!!" Finished hugging Abi, I could see her face that was smiling widely.

"Eh, sorry," like there's an electric shock hearing Aksa's voice. I turned around and found Aksa already in front of me. My forehead's wrinkled, since when was he there? Why didn't I hear the sound of the car coming?

"Well, you're home, Sa?" As if nothing had happened, Abi asked casually. While I have to be content to hold back the sudden taste of Maluku. Aksa saw both of us hugging, didn't he? Aw, *****. Clearly see. He got out of his car and stood in front of him. How long do you think he's been there?

Okay, Gem. Relaxed.

"D-from campus, Sa?" I followed Abi's question.

Aksa nodded awkwardly. His eyes turned to look at the two of us. "Yes, from college." The answer.

"Sorry yes, because of us, you can't get in the car." Indeed we block the car that wants to park in my boarding house or Aksa. The streets around are not too wide.

"Yes, it's okay." The look on Aksa's face is not legible at all. I was confused about making a choice. Is he jealous or not? Okay, maybe it's a spiciness. Maybe better, is Aksa quite aware of her feelings for me seeing me cuddle up like that with Abi?

"By the way," Aksa took a slow breath. "What kind of relationship do you have?"

Dang.

Very smooth, Sa.

He asked as if nothing had happened just now. Just like a regular question. Kulirik Abi beside me who secretly let out a small sneer.
