DON'T COME TOO EARLY IN THE MORNING
ANOTHER LIFE

Cold ambush body. Faintly gurgling water sounded close. My eyes are still slowly opening. My gaze hit the golden dark brown curtain hanging gracefully to the left of the large window. Besides there are luxury furniture with perfect carvings on the front. It was as if I had just woken up in the middle of a magnificent palace.

Am I dreaming ? But it looks very real. Even the pores of my skin absorb the perfect room warmers that are there. But where am I ? this place is so much different from my simple flat. Like the earth and the sky, and my room is still under it again.

Room ?!!

I was surprised to realize something.

My eyeballs are round. The cold wind blowing from the window gap strengthened even more if I wasn't dreaming !

Yeah !

I remember now !!

we're still in London and I'm in a room together ...

Jesus !

I panicked and checked the clothes I was wearing yesterday. Huh ! relieved taste. Fortunately it is still complete to stick to the body. Just be careful if that guy dares to mess around while I sleep !

Suddenly, the bathroom key that was not far from where I was sitting moved. Not waiting for a long time, someone appeared from inside there, singing and dancing slowly. I jerked. He did not realize, a girl was staring at him who was bare-chested with a towel covered on the bottom !

For a second, he stared

I'm staring.

"Aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaarrgghh....!!"

We screamed together.

Cindy and the others held back a laugh at the dinner table. Me and Excell were still silent and just staring at each other intently. Finally Nina's laughter broke because since half an hour ago we've been like this.

"Hey, why don't you just eat. The breakfast at this hotel is great"

Malvin opened the conversation. He showed off the steak of a cow that was still warm.

"Yes, why are you such a child"

Cindy chimed.

"Hahahaha, you guys are really funny"

"Rubber. We're having trouble taking sides, which victim is the perpetrator. Haha"

Others commented. This morning was embarrassing. Hm. Unable to allow.

"This perverted man suddenly showed off his bakery-like chest torn at me ! She was half-naked only covering part of her body with a towel ! I'm clearly the victim. Oh shit pity my holy eyes !"

Clearly furious. Cindy and Nina are beards.

Excell looks unacceptable. His face glared when he heard my explanation.

"Tear bread ?! It's delicious ! I am the victim here ! This perverted girl suddenly stared at the sexiest part I had been protecting so well ! Obviously I'm losing more ! I'm no longer holy"

He defended himself. This time it's Malvin and David's turn to the beard.

"Sexy you said ?! Hey ! who told you after the shower not to get dressed immediately ?!"

"Who told your eyes to be nice, huh ?!"

"Have, already.it's just a trivial thing. Shame to see people"

Cindy mediates. There are some people who notice our commotion. I snorted in annoyance.

"You're so sweet when you fight. Why not just go on a date ?! You don't have a partner, do you ?!"

Nina's exclaim suddenly made me and Excell cough. While the others just laughed.

"I'm with him ?! not to be !"

"Hey don't be big head ! I also don't want to be in bed with a girl who sleeps snoring loudly and spinning like a propeller !"

"I can't be like that ! just ask Cindy and Nina what I'm like at home !"

The faces of the two girls looked confused. If you want to lie but what is said by Excell is true. But if I'm honest they're not good with me.

"Your feet can kick my back a thousand times a night ! Pillow, poranda porch blanket. And my God, did you sleep with your eyes half open ?! Hah, I'm so shocked ! it's awful ! my body hurts all ! suhuuhh... !"

I stomped his feet hard. Excellent grimaced in pain. It's good to talk like that in front of other friends !

Suddenly my phone rings. Lily.

"Hello, is there a...?"

"Why haven't you guys come home yet. Why is there no news ?!"

He was mercilessly nyerocos.

"Sorry yesterday my phone battery ran out. I thought Cindy and Nina told you"

Hearing his name called, they only smiled wryly. Especially if not for forgetting to tell people home because it is too engrossed with his own partner !

"We're worried because the news is being televised about the storm there"

"Calm down. We're okay. Sorry to worry you guys. Lily, is it just you and Jenny in the flat ? Eva hasn't come home yet ?"

As Lily said, Eva had not returned either. Lastly, he told me that he was busy spending time with his girlfriend. I let out a breath.

"Oh yes, a pair of elderly yesterday afternoon occupied the flat next door. The newly moved neighbor was very noisy. They also often argue. But do you know, they have very handsome grandchildren. You would be surprised to see it ! I'm sure ! Hehe"

"You should have greeted them first. You're younger" Ejekku. Lily was nagging.

Before spreading everywhere, the idea of dating crazy again for example. I ended our conversation. Poor Lily. Towards the end of the year he still had to go to college.

After breakfast we will travel around the city. To be honest, I was very interested in the story of the beautiful castles there, as well as the artistic royal buildings. It's gonna be so exciting.

But it's a shame they canceled the show. At first Nina, he was allowed not to come because suddenly his head was dizzy. David had to accompany her. Then Cindy, he suddenly got a stomachache and reasoned to be accompanied by Malvin.

Aargh !

Was last night for them not satisfied enough ? Until now still want to be alone in the room ?! Just imagining their behavior disgusts me. I'm so puffed up.

Seeing me angry, Excell pushed me up to the car. Don't know where we're going yet. While I myself have resigned. Along the way we were treated to a view of snow piled on the roofs of houses and buildings as a result of overnight storms. Thankfully not bad. Only one or two billboards look almost down. Fortunately, it was swiftly addressed by the relevant parties.

I let out a breath. My mind is still piqued by Cindy and Nina's behavior.

"Why has your face been so sour since ? Are you hungry ?"

Ask Excellent when the car enters the parking lot at one of the big malls in London.

"Why do you always associate me with food ? Does my face look clearly like a weak person with food ?!"

Answer ketus

"Because only food can make you better isn't it ?"

He laughed.

"I'm lazy to argue with you. I just regret why they didn't have a healthier relationship with her boyfriend"

I snorted in annoyance.

Excell was silent listening

"Why are they always like that ? Don't they appreciate me there ? Why are they so relaxed ? Is it because it's all part of the progress of the civilization that they think is advancing ? Is legalizing something that should be well guarded can be called modern ? Even if something is freely justified, then where is the essence of a human being who has reason and can think not with mere lust ?"

"You know, I'm not a good person. But I also can't lie forever that I'm fine looking at it. Every time I think about their behavior I feel very sad. I am a colot, and I am not entitled to their personal lives either. I'm not comfortable with it all, even imagining it my chest feels tight"

Excellent put his index finger on my lips because I'm sure he saw my eyes welling up in tears. The man looked at me gently.

"I know, you're like this because you love your friend. But they have made a choice in each other's lives. You're not wrong. So don't burden yourself with that kind of person"

Excellent promised we'd be home tomorrow and not be pushed back. He's holding my shoulder. His face looks serious.

"At first I just wanted to get to know you. But I don't think I chose wrong with my decision. And I'm proud of your mindset. You're so grown up now"

continued.

Um..

Why did the man speak such a strange thing again. Who did he choose from ? I looked at him who was misbehaving.

"Ma..I mean, choose..this...this place..! Haha. Come on, I'm doing good. I'll buy you a nice dress to change. You don't bring more clothes ! Haha"

I let out a breath..

Excellent choose some clothes and coat stels. He then told me to try one by one on the clothes. Hah, it's very troublesome. Usually I just buy clothes at the supermarket not far from the flat, there we can choose freely without having to try like this.

Do rich people have to think about the details and curves of each inch and have to fit ? After all if we buy in the market can be exchanged back.

Sorted by a waiter, I entered a room quite spacious, compared to other malls whose dressing room is very narrow. Inside there is even a tall glass for self-cooking.

Excellent is waiting for me outside. He was sitting on the couch reading through a magazine when the curtains were open. I'm out shy. Ah, actually this is not something special. But my heart rippled looking forward to his assessment of my appearance.

The man looked at me tensely. His eyes were glued. He didn't blink for a second. His mouth opened a little. I was worried for a long time to see it. What are symptoms of intestinal worms ?

"What looks weird ? I can replace it with another stelan"

"Ti. You can..."

"What are you ??"

I waited for him to continue the sentence.

"Mmh.. ka...you must be very ragtag right ?"

Huh ?

Excellent looks nervous. Why did he suddenly pretend to be lispy. That kunyuk must be the prestige of praising me pretty !

"Excuse me, all those clothes I took"

He called the waiter.

What ?! That much clothes ? We only stayed for another day, not transmigrating !

The waiter then wrapped it up nimbly. Some neatly lined papper bags on the cashier table. I pulled Excell's hand.

"Are you crazy ?! I don't have that kind of money, do I ?!"

"I promised to buy you some nice clothes"

The answer is relaxed while memgemasi our groceries after removing the atm card.

"No need ! How can I get it for free ! Even if I am poor, I still have my pride !"

I don't lose

"You're so stubborn. Oh my goodness !"

"Please send me your account number. Even though it can't be now, if you've got a job, I'll definitely be sick !"

He shook his head.

"I don't want your money. Calm down. Do you think I gave it to her for free ?"

"You mean ?"

"Eitherway. I'll think first. Haha"

"Huh ! You're a fucking ya !!"

I ran after him. He's laughing. See ?!? You're a psyco !!

Suddenly my steps stopped. A man walked past us and went up to the escalator next to me. I'm not so sure. But at first glance he looks a lot like Brother Joe. I wanted to call him but Excell surprised me.

"You why ? What's wrong with you ?"

He asked as I was silent staring at the escalator

"Eitherway. I think I saw it wrong. Let's eat ! I'm hungry.." whine.

Being in the store for hours makes my energy run out. Ah, maybe right now I look like an undead. So limp.

"God ! Is that really all that is always on your mind ?! Do you remember how much food you had at breakfast in the hotel ?!"

The man grumbled. I blushed in shame. Feel it. It's a risk taking me for a walk ! Haha.

The car left the mall. Maybe he's afraid that if he doesn't get food fast, I'll turn into a zombie.

We stopped at a chinesse restaurant. No wait a long time, some menus are on the table. Apparently Excellent ordered a lot. My eyes sparkled at Jiaozi, peking duck, ifumie, and ah !

"Wow, I miss eating rice ! But why order this much ?!"

"Just watching you eat so voraciously I'm already happy"

"Why are you talking weird ? people say I look pretty when I eat"

I was proud to put one by one dimsum into my mouth. Let it be, when else !

"I mean. watching you eat with bars like that already makes me so FULL ! Oh, that's it, it's hard talking to you. I'm not sure anyone would praise you like that either !"

"Are you mocking me ?!"

"Hey ! Watch your food ! Your mouth is full still chewing ! Do you want to choke ?!"

He nagged when he saw me go back to devouring kwetiaw while my dimsum was not finished.

"Why do you like to eat?"

Excellent wiped the stain on the tip of my lips with a tissue. I'm a little clumsy.

"Eitherway. Since childhood I have been used to living in poverty. Good food that I've been eating is only mother-made noodles"

Excellent seemed to have misbehaved at my answer. He felt bad asking.

"Ma. I'm sorry I didn't really mean that" she hesitated.

"Look easy. That is the truth. It wasn't your fault. This is all his fault ! My father !"

I leaned back on the chair for a moment. Every time I remember that person, it suddenly feels uncomfortable.

"What happened to your father ?"

Excellence looks serious. I let out a breath.

"He left mom. And from that moment on we suffered. Why am I telling you this"

"Did you ever find out about her again ?"

Excell seemed interested in the dark story of my family.

"For what ? He's a success now, but that doesn't mean I'll care about him !"

Reply steady.

"Is that why you hate the rich ?"

He asked again.

"And is that why you're always dressed when you can afford it ?"

I asked him back. He stuttered.

"Already, don't dodge. I've been watching that for a long time"

My next.

Excell bowed. Maybe he didn't think I'd realized it all this time.

"sorry. I thought that way you wouldn't hate me like other rich people"

"Don't you be rich, you're poor I hate you too for your always nosy behavior ! Haha"

"Is it because of Sam ? Do you always keep your distance because you're close to her ?"

The look on Excell's face changed. His view shimmered in no direction.

Deghs.

I'm speechless.

Why did he suddenly ask like that.

"It has nothing to do with him. Ah let's just go for a walk. My energy is full now!"

I was in a hurry to leave the restaurant. There was a sense of unease hearing Sam's name when we were together. He just smiled, as if something was stuck in his heart.
