SPOTSOME
CHAPTRE 4

Mike glanced at the circular clock in his left hand, Jeez! At 5?!'' The man stood up from his seat. He slept in the room for four hours. Mike turned off the radio that was still beeping and walked out of the dance room. His eyes swept across the already deserted school grounds. There was no one at all except the school cleaner who was busy sweeping away the dried leaves that had fallen off his trunk.

Mike walks to the parking lot to get his car, why aren't Ditto and the others looking for him? Holy hooch! The guy starts the engine and runs the car at high speed. He felt very dizzy with the events today.

\-**000\-000**\-

Mike keeps scrolling his phone screen. Every social media app she has is full of news that she is dating Ella. He was ashamed of his status now. How not? He is a man who hates love, and desperately does not want to deal with that which is called love. He thought love had no logic. Like Agnez Mo's song. Love can make people act stupid. So Mike really does not want to act out of his mind. Returning to Mike's status, with his status today does not embarrass him in public, but the guy is ashamed of himself and his best friends. Especially to Ella. I don't know what Ella is thinking right now. The girl who tried desperately to bring Mike into the world of love, and now status he dating Ella! And that means Ella will feel successful!

Mike took his phone on the table. He opened the contact and pressed Ditto's name there.

"Hello, To?"

"Lo go home well, take Rara with the others."

"Okay, Mike."

Mike locked the phone immediately. He put some money on the table and went out of the cafe.

-000-000-

"Eh Mike! His son Buk Mika Pak Miko! You have a style of hating love! Now ape, huh? You're dating this kid what are you trying to do?" cerocos Rara on Mike.

"Gu-" Hasn't had time for Mike to finish his sentence, Rara has already cut it.

"Eh stale cassava! don't bacot you much! yes, right? The courtship must have a taste."

"Love!" anna's Slit.

"Dine! Our old department." Rara gave her right thumb and shook hands with Anna.

Mike ruffled his hair in frustration hearing the two of them continue to talk without giving the man a chance to defend himself.

"Why am I dating Ella not based on love?"

"Uhukis.. Uhuk." Mike's words made Ella choke on water. He felt like he was given false hope by Mike.

It turns out to be true said Mike fans out there who say that Mike is a PHP guy! I don't know why Ella's heart was so sore.

"Guys I'm not feeling well, first yes guys." Ella got off the couch and left to her four best friends.

"Girla!" Calling Ditto, he let out a long sigh and chased after Ella who had already walked out of the house.

Mike pinched his temple, his head feeling very dizzy seeing Ella's response when he said honestly.

-000-000-

Ella was rummaging her drink lazily. That girl is now with Ditto at the cafe. Because the guy was chasing and asked him to talk about the matter in a good way.

"Lo love her?" ditto asked who started breaking the silence.

"Gue doesn't love her." replies Ella who is still rummaging her drink lazily.

Ditto raised one eyebrow in confusion, "But why is Mike telling the truth, lo kek hurt? you shouldn't be happy if you don't love." Ella raised her eyeballs looking at Ditto. Now the girl stopped doing stirring activities and focused more on answering Ditto's questions.

"Fix! I don't love him! how can I love my own friend! " answered Ella.

Ditto smiled disdainfully, “Friends could be love times."

Ella looked at Ditto with a sigh, "Can't I love Mike when he said he was dating me? I didn't feel the same about him either. Just a friend of doang. When did I love him? I just felt cheated! hoisted! feel it in PHP'in! I'm just as sure he knows! " cerocos Ella without pause.

Ditto shook her head, "Lo said in php-in? means you're dating Mike, huh? " Ditto squinted her eyes at Ella.

"You don't know what I mean, anyway, To? That's not what I mean!"

"Yes, I know what you mean. Do you feel the same Mike? yes, I am sensitive. Tomorrow we finish the problem together at school. Lo same Mike was a position from small. Your friendship is ruined because of a gini doang problem?" Ella nodded her head. Ditto said, Mike is his best friend, and he should not have this feeling.

-000-000-

"Mike you have to break up with Ella! "

"Mike you're so fucking cheating on me."

"Let's break up."

"I'm disappointed with you."

" Mike I'm okay with it."

All of Mike's fans screamed out in protest when they saw his prince already coming to school. Mike walked along the corridor followed by his fans from behind. The guy quickened his pace while bowing his head. Suddenly he saw a pair of shoes right in front of his shoes. Whose shoes? The man lowered his head and was shocked after seeing who the owner of the shoe was. Apparently Bella.

"Gue will not remain silent! Wait for the play date!" Bella leaves Mike speechless thinking of something. Mike was confused by Bella's words. Whatdoes thatmean? The boy ignored Bella's words and chose to walk back to class. There's also good if you think gini, the fans are reduced and Bella starts to stay away from him.

Mike sees the class still quiet. There were only a few boys who were very unlikely to join the protests like the others. Mike's eyes turned to the right side looking at Ella who was already sitting sweetly on his lap. The guy put the bag on the chair. He beats intending to get Ella's attention but still the girl pretends to be unaware and leaves Mike instead.

"Mike, come with me." Mike is surprised to see Ditto suddenly come pulling him out of class.

-000-000-

Mike gets nervous when Ditto takes him to the cafeteria and gathers with his four best friends. Including Ella.

"You want to buy me?" mike said he made the sound as neutral as possible. He pulled his hand from Ditto's check and fixed his uniform that was starting to fall apart.

"Hoi tempe stale! Just sit! don't bacot you much! " said Rara.

Mike clucked and finally sat down next to Ella. Why should she sit next to Ella? I knew he had a problem with that girl.

"Lo said Mike." said Anna.

The guy was surprised, fortunately he did not choke because the chocolate was very hot.

"What should I say?"

"Lo explained to Ella why you said you were dating her." sambar Ditto.

Mike was not feeling after hearing Ditto's words. He took a tissue and cleaned his mouth. Mike remained silent. Everyone was waiting for a response from Mike.

Mike took a deep breath and started telling me why he was doing all this. "Sorry well La, I do this so that my fans give up. Especially Bella. And it proved to be a result, really. See? My fans have started to diminish, Bella was also the same as me. So I hope you guys, especially Lo La, want to continue this plan." said Mike at the end of the sentence.

Ditto gave Ella the code. Everyone doesn't understand what's going on between Ditto and Ella. Ella smiled and nodded her head.

"We will apologize lo and nerusin plan if you read love novels."

Mike's body stiffened for a moment. Her friend agreed with Ella. Can anyone help Mike here?

"Here's the novel." Ella thrust the novel in black and white, the cover does not have a picture of a romantic couple, but from the cover looks the title 'Boy” does not look like a love novel but we do not know the contents. Many of the books Mike saw were like this novel. Looks outside fun, looks inside painful. Mike picks up the novel Ella gave him with trembling hands.

"OKAY. I'll read this novel." said Mike with a face made relaxed. But it was actually trembling on the spot for agreeing to the request.

"Promise to abis? read carefully, read in each word?" Ask Ella to make sure.

"Yes I promise for all of you." Mike's promise has been made.

Let's see, is Mike really going to read the novel?

-000-000-

Door closes. The cold air due to the air conditioner that was never turned off by the owner, made him feel that all the problems he faced at the school had gradually disappeared.

Mike threw his body on the bed with a single jolt. The guy closed his eyes. A few moments later, the dark-eyed man got out of bed. He turned his face to the left. Holy hooch! After remembering what was in the bag made dizziness feel back to rub his head. He grabbed both straps of his bag and removed the black bag from his shoulder. With one light motion he opened his bag resletting and inserted his right hand to pick up an object he hated so much. What else if not a novel!

Mike dropped his body back on the bed. He covered his head with a pillow. The guy examines the novel first by looking at the back cover that usually has a synopsis that gives a grid from within the story. Just a single word had already made his body melt. I guess, this is too... LOVE!

Mike put the novel on the nightstand right next to the bed. He breathed out violently. This air conditioner makes his nose dry. It was enough today that he suffered from his never ending problems. Mike closed his eyes, now his memory drifting back to the events of this morning when he had to explain all the misunderstandings. And then he had to read the damn novel. Holy hooch! If time could repeat itself. He will prevent all this from happening. Unfortunately I can't. Imagine he had to read every corner of the novel. Mike groaned, they were outrageous, he didn't want to think about everything that happened today Mike grabbed the earphones and put them in both ears. Slowly his round eyes closed.

But its the only thing that I know...

When its get heard.

' Tok... Geck... '

The sound of knocking on the door was heard in Mike's ear. Oh, my God, what else is this? Just now he wanted to sleep, but was instead bullied by a goddamn human knocking on his bedroom door.

Angrily the white man got out of the bed and walked to open the door.

Mike was on the spot. His body stiffened as commanded. The shadow of what happened ten years ago turned around in his head.

"WHAT'S THE MATTER HERE?! NOT SATISFIED WITH DESTROYING MY LIFE? GO AWAYL! BEFORE I'M REALLY FED UP!” Mike wrathful. Both of his hands were clenched as if they were about to punch. His face was flushed red, his eyes full of hatred. He never thought about why Julian would let the criminal in.

"I'm sorry if my presence interfered. I know this is hard for you Mike. But can I hug you? I miss Mike very much." Jashon's gaze turned soft, but it was obvious that she regretted everything. He even cursed himself more than Mike.

"GO!" mike shouted while tightly locking the door of his room.

Jashon realized his actions even more anger Mike, he knew what he expected was something crazy. It's impossible to apologize to Mike.

‘Sial! Why did the bastard come again' Mike stared pushyly at the window, it was certain that the man would not be happy with his father's presence. Mike's chest felt tight, his lips suddenly trembling.

"You should be able to learn to forgive, Mike." That subtle reprimand seemed to remind him. The man's mind was filled with a dark shadow. The world resuscitates Mike, where destruction consumes everything he has. Mike's life is gnawed into despair. When she needs happiness, she needs guidance and a mother's love. That savage man took everything. How could he easily forgive and forget the incident. This is totally insane! That iron bars should punish him! Or at least make it miserable! Why does he look happy. You son of a bitch" Mike exited his room and walked without direction at maximum speed. Mike has been blinded by hatred. His heart was covered with revenge.

Mike still remembers how Jashon left his mother when the fire broke out. And he could only watch without understanding what he had to do. Little Mike was still too stupid to digest everything. Mike even cursed himself who could do nothing. Mike hated himself for not being able to help his mother.

Mike climbed the stairs one by one. The leaves rubbed against his skin and the rain spots drenched his hair.

"Mike..."

Ella was stunned to see the back of the man in front of her, she was not sure it was Mike, but her feelings said that it was Mike, strange indeed.

Wh why? Why isn't he looking? is that guy really not Mike? But it can't be anyone else because this place is the copyright of the nano-nano chekrek gang. It was Ella's father who set up the tree house as Ella's birthday present. And from his posture only Mike who has a tall sturdy body like that. There's no way it was Ditto with the body of a living skull.

"Mike.." this time Ella called louder with courage following Mike up.

"Lo why, Mike? If there's a story problem to me, who knows your feelings could be lighter."

Mike just glanced at a glance without even answering. Mike's eyes are heating up, lucky night's darkness can hide his tear dam.

"Ella, why did he call me that? I don't care, I don't need to be pitied. Am I just surviving in the sense of pity? My life is sad, my days are filled with gray. Even a clear sky cannot change my situation. Even if the rainbow mourns. Well this is stupid, why should I believe, anyway eventually he will be the same as them, sneering and happy for the suffering that I feel." Inner Mike.

"You want what lo? Just go! Don't pretend to care." Mike starts to lose his mind, and Mike yells at him.

Surprised, of course. Mike's never been this rude to Ella.

"Mike I'm wrong what? I'm sorry if I've been wrong all this time."

"Lo won't understand! I am free to tell stories! you won't be able to understand what I am feeling. I hate! Why is the world so unfair. Why is there love if we end up hating each other? Is this what you say love is beautiful? In my eyes love is like hell. Love has taken away my happiness. Why does that man love Mother if he ends up ruining everything." Mike bowed limply. Imagining the incident made him sick.

Ella doesn't try to speak up, she just wants Mike to let go of all the, all the trouble that's weighing on her mind. I don't know what Ella was feeling, the girl spontaneously hugged Mike.

"If you want to cry, don't be ashamed. Because men are human too. They must need something to ease the problem. I'll always be there for you Mike, and I'll always care about you."

Mike digested the word. Ella was not what she thought. She thought she was going to be the same as everyone else, Ella was different. However, from all of his words somehow it felt like there was a bit of a burden missing.

It felt like Mike returned Ella's embrace and let the pain go. But he could only feel the warmth Ella gave him.

-000-000-

Whatisthis? Why did the classroom suddenly change like a cemetery? Wait, I think we know the answer. Who else if it wasn't for Ella. No wind no rain the chick suddenly turned like a human vampire, very cold. Even Anna who had asked him to joke was ignored. Automatic nyai dampir in class reduced to one. Forget it, there's more to it than this, Mike's not in class. Of course making Ella worried, her mind was filled with Mike. He did not even care when Mr. Yudin rebuked him. All Ella was worried about was Mike.

"Mike... Are you all right,"

-000-000-

Teeett..

The bell sounded loud, indeed if there was a happier thing, it must have escaped the grip of Mr. Yudin. Jeez besides Killer the teacher also turned out to be a Math teacher, a most terrible lesson in the eyes of the students.

"Ella, wait." Ella flinched in shock as suddenly Rara's hand had clasped her hand.

"Lu horrified me all right, you why? Please well. We are friends. So I hope you don't hide any problems from us."

"Gue's okay, really."

"Gue knows La, you must be lying. You can't be okay, but all day like an ice princess."

"Gue... I'm just worried about Mike."

"Mike, why? Eh, Ella. Mike's just fever, his side." Ditto started acting sucks .

"It's not. Umm.. I," Ella thought doubtfully. It's better that last night he doesn't have to tell me. "Gue. Mike is not usually sick. What if I suddenly die? My mission hasn't succeeded in making her read a love novel."

"If so, let us go to his house." Anna embraces Ella suddenly followed by Rara and Ditto.

-000-000-

"Crazy you well, half an hour we're standing here. You even got it on, you think we're a sculpture display. Aje gile, haggle to eat cake! Laper knows not." Rara raved incoherently, this atmosphere made her uncomfortable. And he saw Mike like he didn't know.

"Sorry guys, I don't mean to mess you up."

"Look easy Mike. We also here do not mean to disturb, yes but like this one boy does not know himself. It's even food." Ditto stared intently, warning Rara not to act strangely.

"Tau Rara, I'm a tabok lo too!" Anna's got Ditto.

"Mike, get well. Look at Ella, it's crazy she thinks about you all day." said Ditto.

Mike glanced at the girl, well stop to grieve, this situation even makes Mike more empty. Forget that feeling. In front of him many people loved him sincerely.

"Udah nebak me, Ella where hold my loss. It must be a mess, isn't there me?" Mike smiled, trying to melt the atmosphere. And Ella was happy to see Mike back.

"Where's July, Mike? How come there's no?" Anna curious.

"Oh, Julian escaped to Newyork. It was the same time he took care of me. Two weeks back and forth. Just be careful when I go home, get ready to bogem!" Mike started to shake.

"Selow by the way Mike. Kak Juli's working for you too." sambar Ella.

Mike rolled his eyes lazily.

"O-yes Mike, I swear I almost forgot to make the announcement. I don't know this info."

"Not to be confused, what's the info?" Mike was a little curious, the way Ditto gave information as if it was beyond everything.

"Sir Yudin gave me a myriad of tasks, and you know how difficult Mathematics is? since you are not in school we want to be kind."

All agree with Ditto's proposal, although actually later even Mike who will teach them, especially on Ditto whose brain clogged like a water channel.

"Yaudah we returned Mike was late afternoon, usual mother's child, not come home all day expected cross. Later we gather in his house Ditto ngerjain PR Mathematics. You can, right?" Ella.

Mike nodded, Ditto's house not too far away. So he doesn't mind. And Ditto's house is a great place. Besides adem, somehow Mike feels comfortable. The warmth given by the Ditto family makes Mike feel like he has a second family. They can also enjoy a free cake.

-000-000-

Ditto propped up his chin, occasionally shuffling his hair. It could be premature aging, Mathematics makes it to drain the brain. Already, Ditto had tried to think hard. But his brain is somehow always mintul if in 1qfaced with this lesson. Even Anna and Rara gnawed at the fountain pen, so complicated. Dito rolled over - overthrew the body hoping tucked away a little enlightenment. Looks like only Ella can understand what Mike's explaining.

One hour

Two hours

They have not completed all the tasks. Wait who is to blame for this? Those who are too lazy? Or Mr. Yudin who has no heart gives a hundred questions about multiple choice. According to the math teacher . The task should only be given as many as ten questions, because if too much will cause side effects, brain chaos. Did ya?

Alright. No matter what stupid research. Clearly, they have to complete their task. Wrong or right, what is important to do. it was Mr. Yudin's message when giving the task about.
