We, Without Me

Trapped by Rain

Flashback.

A few months ago.

Raindrops that turn into a splash trap 2 human children who shiver in the cold. The engine and exhaust of the hot motor looked smoky thin, drenched due to a rain shower in the open parking lot.

JDEER..!!

“Jeez halakalala!!” Dimas was aghast, jumping small and sticking his front body on the wall with his eyes closed. The lightning that was accompanied by the lightning strike made his heart thump. Luckily Dimas did not fall after his legs had slipped a little.

“Hahaha.. What are you talking about Dim?” Rubbing the corner of her watery eyes, Yuki was curled up at Dimas' absurd behavior. He was indeed surprised, but only to the point of jerking, in contrast to Dimas who looks a lot of behavior.

“Hakalala? The hakakala? Oath made ngakak, hahaha.” Hitting the original arm of Dimas who was still turning his back on the street, one hand Yuki held onto his stomach.

“Do not mock, I was shocked earlier.” Dimas grunts annoyed, yelling softly at Yuki's forehead.

“Hahaha.. It's your fault you're such a freak. Ouch, Haha.. My stomach ache mostly laughs.” Now both of Yuki's hands are holding her cramped stomach. His frenzied laughter at Dimas who was without brakes made Yuki's stomach slightly harden.

“Cap!!” Say Dimas ketus while folding his hands.

“So how do we get home? Busted aja time yes?” Easing his laughter, Yuki's countenance turned serious. Looking at the wet streets, the downed flowers and the leaves that swayed indistinctly as a result of the rushing water from the sky.

Rubbing his chin in a huff, Dimas' forehead creased. “On the motor there is only one coat, Ki. If you want to breakthrough you only use.”

“Tomorrow there is a quiz, it is crazy if I wear my own coat continue tomorrow you do not go to college because of fever.” Reject Yuki to disagree on Dimas' proposal.

“Yes how else?” Sighing resignedly and confused, Dimas clutched a backpack that moved the sling in front. The day is approaching night and the rain is getting heavier followed by a strong wind.

“My pants are on, keep your clothes on, how?” Yuki's proposal suddenly with sparkling eyes. His mind was immediately bright as if he had a flashlight from all over.

“Cih.” Dimas screeched with a slanted smile. “Wear raincoat what model do we share that kayak?”

“That's a reverse dress shirt, Dim. So later I can, you know how.”.

“Understanding, anyone would like a mode to hug me.”

Bugh.

Gurgling while choking, Yuki still clenched her hand about to hit Dimas once again. While Dimas casually raised the finger of the symbol of peace.

“Sorry yes, because of chasing my mother, we even become like cold chicks gini.” Said Dimas while staring at his wet shoes. There is a sense of tightness in the chest that suddenly makes it difficult to supply oxygen to the lungs.

“Casual aja time. Moga tomorrow we can meet your mother at that place.” Yuki's voice was accompanied by a gentle pat on Dimas' shoulder.

“Hopefully, Ki. I just wanted to say hello to him. I just want to know how she lived after abandoning her three children.” The speech was thrown through thin vibrating lips and a faint tongue adorned by the longing pushy eyes.

“I just want to show the condition of Mother to Nita who likes to secretly cry. I just need to know her condition to tell Nita that the Mother she cried life is better or even worse after leaving us.” Clenching both hands to the side of the body, Dimas really misses the figure of Mother who never showed affection to him.

Dimas' heart grew bitter when he imagined the figure of his sister, Kanita Azalea who began to grow up in adolescence often secretly caught crying because he missed the figure of Mother.

Nita who had felt the sling and the presence of the figure of the mother clearly has fewer memories that imprint, in contrast to the youngest who has never felt a hold, at all, not even a single drop of breast milk was detected by his tongue.

“Propay yes Dim. Don't mellow, don't pantes really your face made mellow.” Yuki said while holding back the feeling of wanting to cry. Smiling lips on Dimas tried to give him strength.

“Too handsome to mellow little direct unfortunate.” Say Dimas with a typical grin that sucks.

‘Basic temen songong!!’ Bumpat Yuki in heart while turning his eyeballs lazy.

“Not so..” The soft sound of Yuki barely making Dimas glare in shock, he goosebumps. “Your usual face does not need to be made mellow if you don't want to look more slippery.”

“Basic devotees good looking!!” Said Dimas ketus with a cynical look.

“Not a devotee, but a fact that must be admitted your look is bi-a-sa-ja.” Yuki said again while nodding steadily and putting on a sad pretentious expression, spelling out full of pressure on the word ‘bias’.

“Many say I'm a baby face! Cute, unyu, ageless, still thought to be a boy even though he was 21 years old.” Tukas Dimas sewot, he did not accept his good looks were underestimated.

“Cih!!” Once again Dimas was only able to grieve.

“This is so we don't go home wearing the kayak coat I said?” Tanya Yuki switched the conversation while rubbing her arms and palms alternately, the steam from the mouth being the only source of instant warmth.

“You sure we don't get wet with?” Dimas asked for a split second after starting to imagine their reckless display of breaking through the rain.

“From we have to squeeze here.”

“Mepet Yuki.” Said Dimas in a low voice, correcting the words that Yuki should have said.

“So I did say mepet right?” Tanya Yuki put on a look of astonishment.

“Not mepet, earlier you said ngepet.”

“No, mepet, not ngepet. Your ears were blocked by lightning earlier.” Yuki sewot said without realizing that he was the wrong one to say.

O lord jin, please bring up Ara in the middle of Yuki and Dimas. The debate will continue until the earth stops rotating if not interrupted by Ara.

Cling..

The sound of bells at the door made Yuki and Dimas look back, there appeared to be 2 towering figures who had just come out of the restaurant building that had not dared Yuki and Dimas enter. The glittering appearance of the luxurious and expensive interior made the thin pockets of the two students scream before they could be brought stepping in.

“Kevin..!!”

“KEVEN!! K-E-V-E-N, KEVEN!!” Keven's rising voice responded to the misnamed call. Not once or once again people often call him wrong, but since childhood many people mistake his name ‘Kevin’, but since childhood, although if traced either ‘Kevin’ or ‘Keven’ even has a fairly similar meaning, which can be born noble and can also mean handsome.

Keven Ezequiel (Jackson Wang)

“Iya-iya, Keven. Mama lo make the name antimainstream too, make the tongue like sprains.” Grunts

“Pfft.” Yuki and Dimas held back a burst of laughter awkwardly. Glancing at the glance at the figure named Keven who gave a cynical look did not like.

Yuki reflexively makes a circle with his five fingers in front of his lips, starting to act with deheman wrong behavior which then seasoned coughing more than abal-abal. “Khem! Uhuk..Uhuk.. Khem!!”

“Not enter Mas, Ma'am? Outside cold loh.” Sapa an unknown figure.

“Here alone Bang, I think soon shady.” Dimas replied politely while nodding a glance and smiling kindly.

BREESS..!!

The awkward smile that had been splattered on Dimas' lips instantly vanished when the rainwater splattered as if laughing at him. Instead of decreasing, the sky grew dark with a blanket of gray rain mist. Streets and other sounds appear to be camouflaged by the rush of rain, only the light bias of vehicle lights that are a sign of the crowd.

“Yeah.. Getting faster.” Complaining Yuki sadly, her lips looked paled with a trembling body.

“Log in, inside warm.” The friendly figure again advised Dimas and Yuki to enter the restaurant.

If only the building that protected the two from rainwater was just an ordinary restaurant, maybe the hull of Yuki and Dimas had given up because of the satiety. Wallets that are only dominated by green sheets clearly feel inferior to just taste a glass of water, it is also impossible for the restaurant to be willing to accept an identity card if their money is lacking.
