WHEN I FELL IN LOVE
Chapter 24
The time showed at about seven o'clock at night past fifteen minutes, when I reached the Mall Kedaton, a place that I had agreed with my colleagues, to make it our place to watch with the movie SPIDER-MAN: FAR FROM HOME. In accordance with the results of the deliberation this morning at the office, we chose to buy tickets at the airing at 20:30, so that we all have enough free time to improve, after returning home from work at 17:00. Erwin volunteered as the person in charge of booking the tickets. Of course, we welcome him with pleasure. The task of booking tickets is the most difficult in order to succeed this plan. Because later, he will be in charge of our sitting position in the theater. A huge responsibility and Erwin suddenly volunteered to take on the task. So with great earnestness, we all said: Thank you, Mr. Supervisor, and hope that in the theater later, we sit in the same row. So that the togetherness is more felt.
I came an hour early before the movie started, because I made arrangements with Boris and Jayadi for dinner first, before watching. We chose to dine at one of the restaurants that serves Indonesian specialties, called Engkong Entjie. Jayadi and Boris were already inside the resto when I came. They chose a seat in the outermost area of the restaurant, which on the table already contained various foods that we had ordered. Earlier I had already conveyed to Jayadi by phone to order my food before I came. In my opinion, it's the most effective strategy, to cut the time to wait for orders to come when my time is not much. A glass of Milk Tea, and a serving of cheese toast, was the meal I ordered. Boris, meanwhile, ordered a glass of Lemon Tea and a serving of peanut chocolate toast, the same menu that Jayadi ordered.
Tonight was different from Boris. Boris who usually appears in jean pants and t-shirts, tonight he looks more tidy (in my opinion). He wore a dark blue short-sleeved shirt, which he combined with black denim pants. His hair was combed neatly to the side, similar to the famous vocalist band who often say, “you guys are amazing!” when on stage. For some reason, I immediately thought: Boris is still putting his heart on Jessica, his dinner tonight he came with his best performance.
“Handsome once tonight are you Ris?“ say, pleasantries.
Boris was right after hearing my words. “Ah, it could be my friend,“ reply, while pointing at me. I smiled and responded.
“Bang Boris,“ says Jayadi. “Later, fitting in dalem cinema. Try to sit next to Jessica,“ he continued, saying the advice I too, agreed.
Boris showed an uncomfortable body gesture after hearing Jayadi's advice. Of course, it feels like someone knows a plan that we have put together and kept secret, and then that person just says it in front of us. I saw it, obviously. Boris changed his sitting position, tapped his feet on the floor, and once he rubbed his hair back.
With a slightly flushed face, Boris said, “ya, right too. There's no way I can lie to you two,“ she said, smiling and a shy tone.
Jayadi and I immediately exchanged looks and simultaneously moved eyebrows simultaneously. “Hey, what do you mean eyebrow mainin?” ask Boris to us, suspicious.
“Already, just relax Bang. Anyway later, everything is in order,“ Jayadi replied.
“Hey, Ben?“
“It's quiet You Ris. The business of arranging seats is easy, we can arrange. You'll sort it out later,“ I said, cutting off what Boris wanted to tell me.
“Ya, okay. I leave it to you,“ reply Boris. For a moment he looked at me and Jayadi alternately, with a smile that fluffed on his lips, “Please, huh?“ said later.
