After He's gone
twenty-five. Good guy

The day we are waiting for arrives, the day we should be happy. Alana got up early and prepared everything. Beautiful clothes, shoes, bags. Everything that is suitable for use the streets is already piled on the mattress. He had chosen it all night, so today was no longer confused.

Even whatsapp groups have been created. It's a little bit more, but it's important because no one can split up on their own. They should be together until they get home.

"Hey, today we are still participating in activities. Remember that." The message was not in the group, but in a private chat room from arkan to Alana.

Arkan had already asked his girlfriend to come to the promised spot during the day.

"Eh? Not truant. How suddenly you know." Reply Alana who still thought they would meet from the morning. He stared disappointedly at the clothes he had prepared.

"Loh, don't know yet? Yes, this is what I told you. Watch out you have to come" Threaten arkan, have said it suddenly still threatens again.

Alana's racking her brain again. The clothes he chose looked too excessive to bring to club activities. He must look flashy. But if you have to change clothes and others it will be more troublesome.

Inevitably Alana chose to wear it right from the morning. He guessed, they would not have time to rest, go home or change clothes.

He continued to wear his cute blue shirt, equipped with a bag and shoes. Staring into the mirror, Alana felt a bad feeling towards Gea that would surely ridicule her all-out because of this.

The place was crowded as usual. Alana had been truant for a few days, it made her feel awkward to meet people at the drama club again. Especially with his current clothes, his embarrassment multiplied many times.

"Alanaaa" Gea immediately called out to him before Alana blurted out by standing in the corner. Alana approached him happily, like a person saved from a bad situation. Well, Alana had forgotten that now she had a friend who would make her comfortable anywhere.

"Hi Ge, Raraa... Thank you for calling me." Alana breathes a sigh of relief.

"Eh, what a beauty today. There's a promise, same boyfriend." Gea starts investigating Alana because of Alana's statement yesterday. He's happy that Alana can open up to him, even if well forget about Gea forcing Alana first.

" Gea, enough. I'm ashamed of you" Panik Alana tried to cover her face with a bag. Gea must have seen her thin eyeshadow and lipsticks that were different colors than usual. Look now, Gea's already pulled Alana's bag to see her once again.

"Don't be ashamed of Alanaaa. You're beautiful." Reply Gea after successfully removing the bag from Alana's face.

"That's pretty. It's Ra." Gea turned to see what Rara was nodding while smiling in admiration. This is the first time I've seen Alana dress up. He was amazed how that slightly unkempt face turned so beautiful.

"You need to be more confident." Gea patted Alana on the shoulder.

"It was. But after meeting people I know, it felt immediately embarrassed." Alana lirih.

"Let's not be ashamed of me." Gea smiled faintly once more. He returns to his soul who likes to tease Alana.

"Eh, that's not it."

Alana smiled clumsyly now. They met at a cafe near the school. Arkan has just come up with his elegant looking girlfriend in a purple casual dress, a cloud-shaped bag and matching-colored shoes. Really cute.

Arkan, who had been smiling, looked in wonder at the two creatures who were sitting next to Alana. Why so many.

"Huh, cheating." Gea kicked down the table after turning her eyes from the window towards the woman beside Arkan.

"Why is arkan's girlfriend and Ananta pretty anyway." Hearing her the purple-clothed woman who had been staring in shock, chuckled while covering her mouth. She's so sweet.

"My pretty girlfriend why are you the one who bothered." Reply Arkan while allowing his girlfriend to sit first. He opened the chair facing me for his girlfriend.

Her sweet behavior shocked me again. He was nothing like the arkan who used to mock me, even though the sentence in his mouth remained the same. Sucks.

"Some of you are not invited" He continued to glance sharply at Gea and then at me.

"Hehe. Sorry." I said, I couldn't resist Gea before. That's why Gea managed to come here.

"Let's just want to see a girlfriend. After this I left. You guys can have fun" said Gea knowing herself with her unwanted position present. Alana looked at him guiltily.

He was happy to eat with a friend, although the time was not right. However, he had no intention of expelling Gea either.

"I'm Bela sis, greetings too" Reply with a sweet smile again.

"Oh yes, this is Rara" Gea introduced Rara who from earlier sat quietly beside her. They shake hands.

"If this is Alana. Arkan's girlfriend's friend." Gea further clarified the word girlfriend to Bela.

"Well, Gea... Shame." Alana patted Gea on the shoulder in a fit of anxiety before shaking hands with Bela who was now laughing.

"Hi, I'm Alana. Friends also." Alana.

"Yes, tell me a lot about her friend and sister. I've even been wanting to see Alana for a long time, but Arkan is always dead. So only now" Bela said with enthusiasm. His eyes filled with admiration for the woman in front of him. Arkan only observed while occasionally smiling.

"Arkan. Not a strange story." Alana asked suspiciously. He couldn't guess what he was going to say about himself.

"No, from the story tell me I know brother Alana, brother Gea same Kak Rara a good and funny person." Said Bela unconsciously his hand was already grasping Alana and Gea's hand while talking.

Gea and Alana looked at each other and smiled meaningfully.

"OKAY. My mission's done. I go first yes. Bela, take my beloved Alana yes" said Gea rose from his seat.

'Eh, since when did I get my favorite title' Alana thought she saw the old Gea and waved her hand as she walked towards the door with Rara following behind her.

"Ananta hasn't arrived yet. You better order some food first. Cake and ice cream are good." Alana said after glancing at the notification from the group on her phone screen. Bela nodded in agreement, then Alana drove him to the cashier to order.

Alana recommends some of the cakes she has tried. Bela just chose one of Alana's recommendations without looking at the other menu.

They almost finished the cake on the plate when Ananta came. Alana ordered a second time.

"Hehe, sorry. I was arrested with the teacher about yesterday's race business." Ananta felt guilty when stared intently at by Arkan and Alana.

While Bela was grateful, because Ananta was late so he had time to try Alana's recommended food that proved delicious.

"If the late boyfriend anyway, must be sorryin. Yes Na" Goda Awkan, Alana thrusting a drink that is always in Ananta's message was just a waste of face. He was a little bit there waiting for them to stop teasing him.

Ananta sat down next to Alana and drank his drink. Silence did not pay any attention to the new people among them.

"Ta. You know bela?" Tanya Alana saw Ananta standing still beside her.

"Hmm? Notwithstanding. Just seen it" he replied innocently.

"Huh? Where" answered Alana questioning the person who was right in front of her.

"In Arkan's wallet. He's so arrogant when he talks about his girlfriend" Ananta replied unknowingly saying Arkan's secret out loud. Making Bela again smile knowing that her photo is still in the wallet.

"Eh Ananta's. What was that talking about?" Panicking Arkan, he never let Bela know that his picture was in his wallet. Arkan gets even more annoyed when Ananta ignores him and stares completely at Alana. Arkan knows, it looks like Ananta is replying to him for teasing Alana.

"Can't see you in person. First acquaintance" Alana drags Ananta's hand to shake hands with Bela.

"Yes ok. Knowingly. Ananta. His roommate said" Ananta said a little forced.

"Yes, I know. I'm Bela, who's on display in Arkan's purse" said Bela smiling nosily as she glanced at the embarrassed arkan.

It's creepy. They seem to be in frequency. They like to flirt with others in their own way.
