That day I had a conversation with Velia while discussing all about Velia's life that even I knew about. Not to forget Velia also told how she liked our sister, and also told about the first meeting of those who were in the cafeteria at that time.
Velia told me nonstop. Even he had intended to be together forever!!
"Oh yes, Vel! Are you curious about Leonard's life?" I asked to divert the conversation that was just about Robert.
Velia frowned confusedly as she looked at me, "There's really something wrong with her? Or don't-don't-!" Velia suddenly hung up her words. I knew the direction of Velia's conversation, so I interrupted her.
"Don't think weird! I just want to know, considering he's now our best friend! Did you not visit him, we never even offered to visit his house?!" I was curious about Velia.
After hearing my question earlier, I saw that Velia seemed to think, "You're right too, Al! I think something's covered up from him!" Said Velia who was finally one thought with me.
We both think about what Leonard's life really is like. Until it doesn't feel like time is starting to dusk. Velia invited me to dinner outside, so I wouldn't turn her down.
Before that I took Leonard too, and I also deliberately asked to take him home first. Obviously I haven't had a shower and also need to change clothes okay!.
...ΩΩΩΩΩΩΩΩΩΩΩΩΩΩΩΩ...
It didn't take long for us to arrive at a cafe with a new menu. The cafe opened 4 days ago. Many teenagers are there just to hang out with their friends. Including me and my two best friends.
Me and Velia have come first and we're waiting for Leonard who hasn't come, until finally.
"Haish, sorry I'm late!" Said Leonard who just came to see us both. He immediately sat down on one of the chairs near me, facing off against Velia.
"Because you're late, so you're the one who bought us, how?!" Velia asked with the intention of just joking around. I and Velia until now actually do not know where Leonard's house, he never even invited us both to visit. I'm afraid that if Leonard keeps buying both of us, he'll be short on money for himself. Remembering he always pays dearly for whatever we both order.
But this was surprising, it turns out Leonard also received an offer to treat me and also Velia at the cafe.
I had planned this before with Velia, to test Leonard. We're both gonna ask about Leonard's real life. Friends need to be open to each other, right? For what is covered up. Remembering also the sudden arrival of Leonard who wanted to invite me and Velia to get acquainted until now the three of us are friends.
"All right, order whatever you want! I'll pay for it!" Leonard said lightly, then pulled out a phone and played it.
Velia and I were really afraid that Leonard turned out like people out there who felt he could always treat his friends when his family was short of money. That's what I had in mind with Velia. It wasn't supposed to be me and Velia thinking like that, but it was the truth. I was very curious about him.
"Le, are you sure you want to buy us something to eat?!" Velia asked in full search, I saw Leonard's confused look on his face. He blinked his eyes at Velia who was looking at him like she was investigating something on Leonard.
"Yes sure, why? Is something wrong?!" Leonard lightly said it made me and Velia look at each other at a glance.
We also ordered some food in the cafe and tried not to put any suspicion on Leonard. But still me and Velia still want to know about Leonard you know?
Until I finally saw Velia who was eating, suddenly staring towards the entrance of the cafe with widened eyes.
I wondered and asked him what he had seen until he widened his eyes like that, "You why the hell? See what?!" I asked without looking in the direction that Velia was looking at. Then Velia pointed towards the entrance with her hands, without saying anything, because her mouth still had food that she had not swallowed.
I turned to the direction that Velia pointed at, I was not surprised actually. But clearly Velia must be very happy that she's here. Yes, he is Robert. The person that Velia had admired all this time. Leonard was also the same as me who immediately turned to look at the entrance to see who Velia was pointing at.
"Haish, I guessed!" I said lirih.
"Huh? What did you say? Did you know he was coming here? How do you know that, Al?!" Velia asked me with various questions about my words earlier. I didn't know Robert was coming there. But I concluded that it was only natural that he went there, because he was a cool guy and would always spread charm in places like this. Considering he is the most admired person on campus, it is no wonder that he came to a place like this.
I said to Velia, "What are you doing, Vel? Cook that you do not know, this is a new cafe that is viral! So it's only natural that he's here, isn't it?!" I said that made Velia think.
"Yes, you're right too! Why didn't I think about it until then?!" Said Velia while scratching her non-itchy head. While Leonard was seen still focused on eating after glancing at the direction indicated by Velia earlier.
"Al, I think I should samperin brother Robert first!" Velia said asking me for advice.
"For what?" Leonard asked by raising one of his eyebrows while staring at Velia with.
"That doesn't need to be Vel, it'll just make you look low in front of him!" I said tell Velia. But it seems that Velia did not heed it. He stood up from his seat, as if he didn't think me and Leonard were there and seemed to have been attracted to Robert's charm. He just got up with a flat object in his left hand.
"Vel, where are you going?" I asked who was no longer ignored by Velia. He just left right away. I myself may not have to call him anymore, which there will be all customers of the cafe will look at me with their strange gaze, when I see me yelling call Velia. So I chose silence and disengaged my intention, I would only monitor Velia from afar along with Leonard who was still focused on her food.
