It's Not Sleep That Makes Me Dream, But You
Chapter 31: The Razor19

The atmosphere around felt quiet, my position now again sat on the edge of the mattress in Adit's room with a feeling of anxious hope. I stared at the floor a little daydreaming, thinking of the next ideas. All I could hear was the sound of a laptop keyboard button and a wall clock on the wall in front of me.

Currently, Adit again read the comic script that I wrote, his face looks serious, he actually read it carefully. I hope, he immediately agreed and wanted to use the script so that I could immediately write the continuation.

I don't know why I feel so satisfied writing this one script, as if this is the best script I've ever written. Three more days in the process of processing can also be enjoyed fully. Very comfortable writing the script this time.

Adit was still staring at the focus of the monitor screen, while I was busy with hape, writing ideas that popped into my head. Sometimes I look at the status of WA. Some of them are on show photos of tourist attractions they are visiting to fill the holiday time. There are also nolep and write bad status, every day post dark pictures with cool quotes (according to him), but according to some people, including me, kayak status is very cringe.

Inability to scroll the status of WA people, I was not deliberately squirming the status of his WA Nadia. He posted a picture of him on vacation with his family. In the photo he posted it shows himself eating out in the open with a group of people who he thinks are his family. Generally it is, the wealth of the winners emang on a semester vacation with a vacation to tourist attractions or relax. Unlike me and Adit who are even busy playing comics during the holidays. But no problem, it just feels good to be able to work hard to write a script when others have fun.

I thought about Nadia. Since I rejected a statement of love from him one month ago, we are quite rarely greeting. Even though before the rejection happened we were both quite familiar, he often chatted with me, and a little chatty. You could say, before there was Olivia, Nadia was the one who filled my list of familiar friends besides Flowers and Adit, but Nadia now even cue very much to me, like other people.

Yes, I have not apologized to him even though I always thought and had the desire to apologize but somehow I never could. Besides because I'm not happy, he himself also often avoid talking to me. Every time I met whether it was an intentional or non-intentional meeting, Nadia would have been evasive. Even if there is a division of study and task groups, if he happens to be one group with me, Nadia must always ask to move groups. Is he so disappointed in me? No, that's not a real question, which is really, Does anyone accept rejection?

Maybe for him to be heartbroken as it hurts, maybe he really likes me, fell in love with me until too good. I'm not GR and handsome, but yeah what else try the alesan? For sure at that time, he had expected too high of me, and usually someone who hoped too high would fall too ill. Come on, I'll apologize, I hope there's a chance.

"Good, I love this story." Adit said, he then closed my laptop and gave it to me again the laptop. "The opening of an interesting story, the mysterious identity of the main character makes it curious, cool. I can't wait to read it." Adit.

Adit suddenly said that, breaking the silence.

"Okay, I'll continue."

"Rather than the lo stories that I met on flash yesterday, this one is the best." Adit.

I breathed a sigh of relief after hearing it.  "Good, if you like."

"Later I finished the character design, if it's finished I show you to lo, yan."

"OK on." I said.

Adit then gave back his laptop to me while opening a new chat topic.

"By the way, you read the list of the top three winners of the comic competition in the same magazine Aneka Komik ngk?" Ask Adit.

"Yes, I know about that."     "And you must also know who is the third champion.."

I paused for a moment before replying, "Yes, he's got the pen name Razor19, and he's sixteen, about our age."

"There are rarely people of that age who can be champions of three. For such a big comic competition, so a champion of three is already amazing, surely he is very talented."

The silence hung in the room. I and Adit started getting into serious discussions.

"What do you think of her picture?" Ask me.

Adit who is good at pictures until he says that, let alone me who is ordinary. But really, the picture is very good, the style is very manga. Anyway good, it seems impossible if it was photographed by a 16-year-old. It could happen, but it's a rare possibility.

"But he was weak in his story. I was confused where it was going. The genre is in action, the dialogue is a little, not clear." I'm opinionated.

"Yes, even though that ranks below him on a good story, there are even those that I read repeatedly. But, walopun story is good, but still lost to razor19." Adit crossed his arms, he looked like someone else thinking something.

"Yes, as it were, Razor 19 won third place because of the good picture capital." I said.

"affirms. I'm sure the others also accept that if he entered the top three, with such a good picture, it would be difficult if you want to protest. Because it's a comic competition, it can be judged on two things, the picture and the story. Even if the story is not clear but the picture is good, it's legitimate if you win."

I think Adit began to feel that if he had a rival, our path to become a comic writer is not easy then.

After all, maybe there are other people out there who are the same age we also have the same dream, one of which is Razor19, one of them, we can not relax too long if you want to seriously pursue the dream of becoming the number one comic.     I don't know if we have to be cool or how, have a rival emang ngeselin, but also fun, feel challenged. Adit nau desperately practicing drawing better may also be due to the emergence of this Razor19.

By the way, I thought of something.

"Anything?"

Adit who was serious turned his eyes to me, "What?" Her speech.

"About Razor19 will be competing in the same competition as we?" Ask me a little panicked.

"But I checked on the website that listed there were 50 participants, and there was no Razor19 pen name among the 50 participants."

I feel relieved to hear it Eh, yesterday yes. "Today, have you checked the website again?" Ask me again.

"Not yet," Adit took his HP at the table, then checked the official website of the online comic platform.

"Try the check."

Adit's facial expression instantly turned tense after a few seconds of checking HP.

"She, yan." Adit looked at me before continuing. " Pen name Razor19, he also participated in this race. It says it was registered two minutes ago."

"It means so much." I'm lemes.

"Yes, I think he's aware we're ghibahin."

I dropped my body on the bed and said, "Damn, we haven't registered because we haven't PD."
