DEAR
Episode 24

Vicky's house is very nice and big. He has a large yard. Saaaaangat sprawling‒that I thought the ball field when I first saw it. In addition, the neighborhood where they live is also very quiet, heaven, in my opinion.

Vicky had no brother, an only child. His father worked in one of the private banks, his mother was a friendly man, he was a lover of plants.

When we both got off the lot, his mother was tidying up the flowers. He welcomed us both and treated me to a few pieces of vanilla brownie and a glass of orange juice, hmmm fresh!

“It's beautiful!” I muttered while looking out of the room.

“Actually since we moved here, the flowers are already there.”

“Moving?”

“Ya ..” Vicky was silent for a moment. “Leva, actually ... I've lived in New York.”

Ooh!

“I've lived in New York!” Deuteronomy, with emphasis.

Why did he repeat it?

“You're not surprised?”

So, that's what it means!

“REALLY?” I was exaggerating, pretending to be shocked.

Vicky squinted his eyes, he looked at me annoyed.

“While there, I was neighbor with Tysha.”

Uhhuk! I spilled a drink in my mouth. This is just shocking. Really it?

“But we don't get along, he sucks. Let's go to my room!”

Turns out Vicky was evil, how could he separate me with my last piece of brownie?

“Do not hesitate, think like your own home.”

A timing? That's impossible, right? Because even though they say ‘think like your own home’, they will still be annoyed if I really think of it like home itself. I often experience that feeling as a host.

“Well! This is my room!” Vicky said. We were on the second floor and entered the very end of the room. Entering Vicky's room.

And, my eyes are wide open. Is he insinuating? The room is twice as big as mine. That sucks.

He's got everything‒all the boring stuff. None of them attract attention. Annoyed. But there was something very interesting, not in his room but the view outside his room‒behind their house. Ilan. Waw!

“Keren, right?”

“Hmmm.”

“This is a land of dispute. It is not yet clear who the owner is, no one can manage it in any way. Hence only wild plants grow here.”

“That dispute ... what?”

“Ha!?” Vicky looked at me, he was holding back a laugh. “By the way, Leva. Actually I came to Indonesia only about six months ago when the first semester began. But .. hahahaha.”

What's so funny?

“But, when I was just one week in school, there was a problem that was quite influential in my life and my reputation...You did not hear gossip about me?”

In which newspaper, which celebrities are I!?

“No.” Reply lirih.

“I was living in New York when I was first grade Junior, I was friends with Tysha because she happened to live next door to my house. We also went to school in the same place and went to school together, but it all only lasted for a while because, on several occasions Tysha revealed all my ugliness to Jason, I couldn't accept it. Because I thought we should both compete healthily. But it didn't. Until I became angry. Not because Jason looked at me with a look of disdain, but rather because of Tysha who as a friend .. can a friend vilify his own friend?” The story.

Vicky looked at me, he was not very suitable to tell a sad story, his face still looks funny. Arrested Leva, don't laugh.

“While at school, I was looking for Tysha. That's when it all started. I don't really remember what I did, but at that moment I saw Tysha covered in blood and I did it, everyone looked at me, that horrible look, he was unconscious. He was in a coma, arrived at the hospital, he was immediately operated on.”

Waw! Vicky is more sadistic than Qarima. You're cool!

“I almost killed him .. The school got me out! I'm law-free because I'm a minor, but unfortunately I'm not free from social law ..”

“Social law?”

“Yah. Laws applicable in society, laws not written. The next day, my face was on the first page of the local paper, almost all of New Yorkers knew it! I was not accepted at any school, people around me moved away from me, I ended up being a sweet kid who just stayed at home. I continued my education at home, homeschooling. Regretful, right? What's more when I see my enemy Tysha go home to school comfortably and throw a annoying smile at me, you know the smile that has a sneaky element in it..”

“Bad smile?”

“Yes! Right enough. It seems like he is very satisfied every time he sees me in confinement. That sucks, I .. I hate it so much! Even though I knew I was wrong, I was outrageous for almost killing him. But still ... Are you afraid of me?”

“No!”

“Oh, thank goodness!”

She shouldn't have told me about her past if she didn't want me to be afraid of her, because someday I won't even ask even if she doesn't tell me now. Anyway, am I afraid of him? That would be impossible, I have a brother who is just as sadistic as him.

“Surely I won't do that again.”

Meaning!?

“And when I moved here, because it has been a long time not getting along with normal society .. I did a lot of mistakes!”

“Yes! The first day of school I put a mouse in my classmates' bag.”

I think Vicky is more sadistic than Qarima.

“It was my old Junior High tradition when I was in New York. I forgot, at that moment I was also lied to. So I did the same when I got here! I just want to make an interesting first impression. But in fact my friends started saying I was ‘not quite right!’”

It's true, isn't it?

“Second day,”

Is there a second day?

“The second day I pelted my homeroom with chocolate cake.”

He's a fool, right?

“She's having a birthday, but my chocolate cake is making her mad. I want to surprise him!”

Though she was only two days in school, how did she know about her homeroom birthday?

“My classroom guardian says, ‘do you have a psychological problem?’ He's so cruel. He also said ‘you need a Psychiatrist. If you did it on my birthday maybe I wouldn't be this angry, but oooh you made my shirt dirty,’ he said.”

Haha. So that birthday was just her guess.

“I just want to make a good impression. But everything became even more chaotic, because on the third day ..”

But actually until what day?

“Everyone doesn't heed me anymore, they don't think I exist.”

I think there's still another interesting incident. I can't wait to listen.

“But I met you in extra class. At that time, I had learned a lot about the normal life of society. I got along well with everything, until I found out there was something more abnormal there. Hahahahaha.”

Vicky, say goodbye to the sunset. I'll end you right now.

“But I'm happy with your abnormality, it's so much fun.”

Vicky smiled, it made my heart tremble and move forward. I ... have friends.

“You were my first friend. I accept you for who you are, you should too.” I said unconsciously.

And, wow! I just said the wisest sentence ever thrown from my mouth.

Vicky just smiled as he nodded.

“But, thanks. Quinzha Leva.” Comments later.

Yeah, of course you are. You welcome.

***

This guy, he always wakes me up. In fact, once in a while I planned it was me who woke him up.

“Leva wake. It's five o'clock in the morning”.

That's why I'm still sleeping.

“You can't miss the cold of the morning, you should also see the sunrise.”

Is there anything special about sunrise?

He opened the window, God, it was cold. Didn't he realize that his house was on a high plateau?

I covered myself, again.

“Leva!”

He shook my body, it was tragic for the guy who spent the night with Vicky.

“Leva! I'll finish all the cookies!”

Yep! It's working.

“Kue?” I said, my eyes are still looking for cake, I can't feel the smell. Am I having the flu?

“It worked!” He murmured, unbelievable. “Out can, it works. I just wanted to try!”

She lying?

“Kuenya ..”

“You must wake up first and eat cake, otherwise I will spend everything alone.”

Then I'll pray more for you to get a stomachache. But it was effective enough to get me to the bathroom, if I go to the bathroom then I will be fully awake.

“Come we run in the morning!” Said. He pulled me forcibly. With a feeling of laziness and coercion, I followed him.

We ran around the grassland. The shoes were wet, the dew was still hanging on the leaves. Displease. But thankfully, he didn't lie about the cake.
