Jakarta - Tokyo Love Story
63. Puzzle at the Head of Edo

"A-what's up, Er?" edo asked somewhat flatly.

Edo was still sitting while covering his backpack while Erina was standing right beside him.

"Yuki San's birthday today. He wanted to celebrate with the other kids as well while having dinner. I know you've been busy with Seira lately. But please come home tonight, Do. Appreciate the invitation from him.

The sponsor also released us will want to move residence according to our wishes after a month. But I'm the same other kids decided to stay there.

Yuki San's small dormitory building is old and not very good anymore. At the same price we can move to a better place. But we pity him. He was old and living alone. Her entertainment is just our foster mother.

The building next door had been empty for a year and no one had rented it. Yeah count us on helping him. That was the decision of the four of us. If you're up to it, stay there or not. We know you don't come home every night. You're at Seira's house, right?

Yeah, Do. I told the kids I just wanted to say that" said Erina who ended her sentence without looking at Edo for a second.

From earlier when talking, Erina just stared at the blackboard, not wanting her to see Edo directly.

Perhaps among the other friends Erina was most disappointed at the change in Edo's attitude away from them. Yes, Erina had said yesterday that she likes to be close to Edo because Edo looks like her late brother who died in an accident.

"okay, Er. Thanks information. Yes, I'll go home." Edo answered briefly. It was a bit relieved because Erina wanted to talk to him again.

Erina then nodded and left followed by Ajeng, Beni, and Aldo.

Edo then stood up while draping his backpack on the shoulder. He followed his four friends. The plan was to follow them home on foot as usual. Who knows the atmosphere is melting. Yes, Edo decided to open up again and throw away the ego that was entrenched in his heart.

But it seems that the plan did not go smoothly. As soon as she got outside the classroom, Seira had already greeted her while waving her hands with a cheerful face.

"Edo!" exclaim that pretty girl.

Edo could only stand awkwardly on the spot, especially when the other four friends turned to him in unison with gazes that were somehow meaningless.

"Hi, are you Beni last night?" Seira immediately stepped up confidently to greet Aldo.

Aldo shook his head then pointed towards the real Beni.

Oh, Seira is such a confident girl. He immediately patted Aldo's shoulder, say sorry, then laughed loosely. Then he persuaded Beni who grinned while embracing it pretentiously.

Edo just watched from the front door. He knew Beni must have been nervous about being hugged by Seira all of a sudden, but he hid his shy face with a pretentious smile.

Ah, just tell me she's glad Seira hugged her. Edo knows and remembers very well how yesterday-yesterday Beni always said and praised how beautiful and cool Seira was. Even the boy said Seira was his idol.

"Greetings yes, Ben. Oh, who are you two? I don't think we've had an official acquaintance, have we? Edo's friends are my friends too." Seira immediately extended her hand cheerfully towards Erina and Ajeng.

"I'm a Dojeng." Ajeng then welcomed Seira's hand with a cheerful smile.

Erina tried to smile even though her upset gaze was hard to hide. He extended his hand and mentioned his name to Seira.

"I'm Erina. We have known each other and shook hands like this at a student gathering yesterday. You've forgotten." Erina replied with somewhat cynical words.

Seira just laughed and said "oh yeah", then she walked towards Edo without any concern for Erina anymore. Oh, really...

Edo looked at his friends with limp knees and an uneasy feeling. Yes, Seira is getting more possessive because she feels she has it. Even just out of class has been blocked like this.

"Sey, I'm going back to the dorm. There was a birthday party from my hostel mother" said Edo, hoping his friends would wait for him but they had already passed away to walk first.

"When's talk? Usually at the same time while eating dinner, right? I went back to my house this afternoon. I'll take you later tonight. Papa I go home and I want to show you something," said Seira then immediately pulled the hand of Edo who could not do anything or fight.

Huh huh? Papa Seira's? Show anything? Whatdoes thatmean?

And when Edo asks why, Seira doesn't want to say. He just said it was a secret and smiled meaningfully. Until in the car when Seira was busy driving, Edo forgot to ask him about Kalula's personal problems that he told Beni.

Because Seira seems to be in a good mood, Edo does not want to disturb him. When Seira was humming following the song he was playing in his car, Edo just lowered his head while stealing time checking his phone.

Oho! Roby sent me a message a few minutes ago.

[[[Do, Seira took me to college. We meet up ahead. He turned my money around. You don't know he's driven by a fancy car, Do. But it wasn't Edward. I don't see it clearly, anyway. In front is the driver. Anyway just as Kalula entered the car again in the back seat, there were rich mothers. Anyway, that's more or less.

Who is he, Do? I don't dare to, anyway. He also did not go to the cafe anymore. Because he said he did not work, he replied he had resigned. I have an exam next week. Sorry if you want to ask for help watch out or spy Kalula I can not. Mending you ask the person yourself."  ]]

The message from Roby was quite long as well. Roby sent it with 2 sequential text messages.

"Why, Do? Who?" Seira who was driving had a glance.

Edo shook his head and saved his phone.

"No papa. Just Roby. Ngabarin if Kalula has returned the money he borrowed yesterday." Edo answered that. The rest he shut up.

"Oh." Seira only responded with 'oh' and then refocused on driving while singing the song she played.

Edo was silent. Busy with his own mind. So he forgot again about reprimanding Seira who had been slow to dismantle all the disgrace and distress of Kalula's life in front of Beni.

Edo's mind is busy with the contents of Roby's message that he is trying to examine.

Okay. Luxury car with driver, rich moms? Who'sis that? What does this have to do with Kalula? Suddenly Edo was very anxious.

Kalula is so innocent. Don't make...

Aghhh!

Edo's mind was everywhere. It is imagined that Kalula was offered and promised a good job or something and then turned out to be deceived. Kalula is quite beautiful and Edo considers her to be an easy target for 'moms' to 'sell' because of her innocence.

Edo's hands were already itching to open his phone again and contact Kalula. But he can't. Seira was beside him. Besides, it wasn't this morning that Kalula himself said through a message that he would stay away. What if the phone's not picked up? Edo panicked himself.

"Do? Arrived. That's my papa's car. Comein. I need to say something to you and Papa." Seira's voice makes Edo's daydreams crumble.

Edo just got out of the car limply. What will Seira plan to do with her papa? Then the puzzle of rich mothers who said Roby was with Kalula has not been solved.

Edo was silent as Seira dragged her feet into his house.

"Father! It's me I'm taking Edo!" Exclaimed Seira's crisp voice that looked spoiled on her papa.
