The Dandelions

The Dandelions
The Black Cookie #2



 Brakk brakk..


After 10 minutes of what Elieon was doing inside, Kay was still standing at the door waiting for her to change. "He changed his clothes or fought? why so much noise?" inward Kay, she could only hold amusedly in her heart. Before long the door of the room opened, Elieon's sour face was still clearly visible on his face. Kay just laughed a little at it.


"Do you think that's funny? it sucks." said Elieon in a sniffy tone.


"No, I think I'm free to laugh anywhere. There's no prohibition to laugh here." replied Kay.


"Curtain!" elieon


"Sorry okay? don't be like that until you show it to another man." persuade Kay while giving the chocolate in her hoodie pocket.


"If you still want to talk, go there!" elieon said he was angry but accepted the chocolate anyway. It is undeniable that this girl is a chocolate enthusiast.


Kay simply smiled, a small showdown like this is now present again in Elieon's life. Kay finally went into Elieon's room. Elieon did not close the door, because it was uncomfortable to have a man in the house even though it was his best friend. After a long time of not meeting them now exchanging stories, what Kay experienced for the last 2 years is told in full to Elieon. Whatever happens they don't care, the most important thing is that now they can exchange ideas like they used to and Elieon won't feel alone anymore.


Tok tok...


The sound of the door being knocked in the middle of their conversation, Elieon looked at his door now stood a girl with a tray of ovens containing her favorite black cookies, Elieon knew who she was. The girl smiled very sweetly while raising both of her eyebrows.


"Hi Elieon, I'm sorry I didn't know if your girlfriend was here. I'm making a new cookie with dark chocolate, I want you to taste it a little." Carol teases Elieon.


"Carl! don't make fun of him and he's not my girlfriend, just a friend. Come inside! I'll take a bowl for the cake." Elieon moved from where he sat, Elieon's room was a little wider, there was a small kitchen beside the bathroom and there was a mini table with a soft carpet pad to welcome guests in his room. Carol went in and gave her name to Elieon. Elieon prepares a warm chocolate drink and Carol's cookies to serve, as well as some snacks. Elieon did not expect that there would be many guests in his room, he did not have more food to serve.


Elieon introduces Carol to Kay, the three of them are now joking with each other either about friendship or about the slightly careless cookie Carol gave. It seems Carol really likes to empty her cookies, every time Elieon accepts cookies there is always a blacker part than the other part. Elieon still likes it because it tastes good. Shortly after, Elieon's door was knocked again, this time around, David was carrying hand-picked potato chips brought from his hometown when he went to see his mother 2 days ago and Elina was carrying a variety of homemade sushi and snacks light a bag full, and behind them was also Eren this Russian man carrying some soft drinks and spicy food.  Elieon furrowed his brows, surprised by what he saw.


"Ehem, may I join you? I have souvenirs but I'm confused how to spend them" David said as he scratched his long hair.


"Eumm, I made too much sushi and bought too many snacks" Elina said nervously.


"That, I'm tired of being alone. I thought it would be fun to drink with a friend." Eren swept away while looking away.


"pfftt... hahahhahahahaha.huhahahaha, this is ridiculous, it turns out my room is so interesting, right? hahaa". Elieon laughed out loud. Everyone was astonished because this was the first time seeing Elieon laughing so loudly, even Kay herself was surprised because this was also the first time she had seen Elieon laughing. it was just a little laugh before but it was like a great gift for Kay. Kay was a little calm which meant Elieon was beginning to forget her sadness.


"hahaha, come in, and my eyes water" Elieon said, wiping his eyes. Eren, David and Elina chuckle as they enter Elieon's room. Carol returns to her room to pick up more cookies, Kay just smiles. The dark and cold room began to look radiant and warm, while Elieon became warmer than when he met Kay. Everyone hoped that Elieon would be a cheerful girl, but Elieon knew that the warm warmth could not continue to exist in her. Because the old wounds in Elieon's heart have not disappeared, and his trauma by the old wounds that made his nature change since 11 years ago is also unlikely to be easily lost. For now let the warmth bear sweet fruit even if only a day, the bitterness will always taste sweet when with someone who can make us laugh.
