Suddenly
Like going back, going back, and coming back…
“I don't think we should go home today?” Sky looked at Kai with a pleading gaze.
“Tomorrow also saturday.”
“The two of us also have no problem with the task piling up.”
“Although people say just see it—you and I have too much fun,” continued Sky.
“Yes, don't know how crazy we are.”
In 1 week on Monday and Tuesday is the day of doing tasks for the next week. At the same time repeat the material and do the task for tomorrow and the next day.
Fridays do some tasks with a deadline that is still quite long.
Saturday, fun day and so is Sunday. It's just that the evening repeats a little material for Monday.
Not always together. There were times between us working separately whether it was outside or in each apartment.
“You're planning something? Not Kai, if not planning something out of the blue. What are you thinking?”
Weeks have passed. My relationship with Ken is a little strained. And Kai to Ken too.
Kale and Yuta…
Hmm, almost forgot about it. Like there never was. But it's almost and hasn't happened yet.
Like it's numb. Even though it was once that close, it didn't get me affected and it remained just fine.
They came to ask me how I was. Of course that came out of my mouth, ‘ alright’. That's all it is. Especially if it's not that. Surely they are still trying to pry things but still I still stick with my careful attitude.
“So, all this time you..”.
“What? You still curious about the bookstore?”
“Iya, it made me not only shocked,” instead of answering my question. Kai talked about other things.
About the previous conversation that Kai and I talked about.
“You will definitely tell me even that later?”
“Iya, Kai definitely.”
“Alright, I understand.”
“Thank you. Where are we going now?”
“Marathon film.”
“How much is a film?”
“Three, hehe. Until 2 am.”
“Don't you already order it?”
“Iya, just.”
“Alright, looks like we should buy fried chicken?” Sky smiled.
“Yes, you're absolutely right. There's still 1 hour. We can buy it.”
It is undeniable that once in a while my mind wanders. Like an unfinished question. Like the past that always brings you back, back, and back. Despite trying to trick you into going away to get away.the ends lead you to the same goal of returning.
“Why are you?”
“Why are you, Jeff?”
Jeff was serious about his words. “Can I say it now in front of you even in front of you? Is it worth hearing? I told you never to put any expectations on me.”
“If I had said that. I don't think any of you need to put excessive expectations. That's gonna hurt. Like you saw me. Isn't this an example?”
“Sky!”
“Iya..”
“Yes, Kai?”
“You daydream again.”
“I think I'm hungry, hehe.”
“We have arrived,” said Kai.
“Hah?”
“We'll watch.”
“It fried chicken?” Sky confused.
“We bought it earlier.”
“When?”
“More precisely I bought it because you were daydreaming,” Kai looks upset by the look on his face.
“Kai, sorry..”.
“Having started,” Kai delivers food without looking towards Sky.
“Kai..”.
There's no answer.
In addition to the atmosphere that changed instantly. Kai took his phone in his grasp and seemed to be sending a message. “Rania is coming. It just so happens that he's here. No problem, right?” that's what Kai said.
“Why suddenly?” my answer.
“Isn't that a problem for you? You and him are not like they used to be.”
“How about you..what does that include not ruining the moment?”
“But I don't invite someone to make excuses like you..Kai.”.
“Isn't this part of my plan?”
“Good.”
Tok.dok…
Rania tapped on the car glass and smiled at me.
“Hai!” sweep it with cheer.
“Hai!”
“Hai, Rania..”.
“Wah, what's going on? Are you...ah, you guys are fighting?”
“No.”
“Iya,” answer.
“Wah! Which one is right?”
“He who started,” Sky pointed towards Kai.
“You,” Kai turns pointing towards Sky.
“Are we not watching a movie?” my spoken.
Kai gave his fried chicken to Rania and took 1 serving of the fries that were still in my grasp for Rania. Kai ignored my gaze as the fries had changed owners.
This time there was nothing I could tell from this first movie that was still going on. I don't know what it's like in the second and third films. Rania too, is it still here?
“Is he angry too? Because of the fries?” kai said in his mind.
Sky was more silent than usual, nor did he continue his meal which he still even ate some bribes. Only Kai and Rania spoke to each other. Talked a lot of things. Like the world is on them.
“Kai, where's Sky?”
“Sky...,” saw Sky is not next to Kai.
“What did you do to him?” ask Rania.
“No.”
“Hey, don't you know how she feels? That makes him confused what to look like or what to do. But it was worth it for him to feel that way. How not...after what happened to him, did you not think about it?”
Before long the person who was in the conversation came with food.
“Where are you from? Why not tell me?” said Kai.
“Buying fries, you want Rania?”
Rania nodded. “Sure.”
Without asking Kai, Sky immediately gave the fries to Kai.
“You're angry about French fries?” kai whispered to me but I ignored it.
Suddenly my phone rings. “Sorry, I have to pick up the phone,” Sky walk out.
“Who about called him?” rania Goda.
Kai looked silently outwards.
“What's up?” sky's voice sounded lazy to speak.
“Your mother..”.
“What's with Mom?”
Ken suddenly called me.
“I think you should come to the hospital now,” Ken said.
“Wouldn't they reject me?”
“I'll be with you,” Ken hung up.
His gaze leads around. It feels lost with the mind that does not determine and also the feelings that he has.
Doubt was widening like his footsteps were increasingly hesitant to step to the front to return or even retreat to disappear.
The phone he was holding too, in between deciding to give it or not.
“What happened something?” Rania began to wonder.
Kai also started to calm down. “He's definitely back,” replied Kai.
“Don't you have to look for it?”
“Maybe he needs a minute. He's always been like that.”
“Ah, alright.”
“Actually what happened? Is it because of my presence? Ah, no! I don't think it is. Sky is not that kind of person,” said Rania.
“Last-lately although it looks fine it doesn't seem like it,” explains Kai.
“As I said before, Kai. You should understand his feelings better. He might look strong but, he's also a Kai.” human
