Mr. Teacher, I Love You
24. The Correct Truth
Arriving at home, Zeo immediately recharges his cell phone battery. Yesterday he forgot to fill it up so his battery ran out while at school.
Zeo turned on his phone. Maybe someone sent her a message, though they knew it was impossible.
It was impossible, but eventually Zeo's consciousness jumped up after reading a message from Satria. Zeo immediately contacted Satria.
“Lo where now?” ask Zeo. Then he glanced at the clock. Apparently it's been half ten in the night.
“Why?”
“Gue is home, Stupid! Why did you go there without waiting for news from me? Hape I died from this morning,” reprimand Zeo.
“Quiet aja. I'm home, kok.”
Zeo breathes a sigh of relief.
“Lain times you don't have to bother. I can go there alone. I'll call you if I need.”
Zeo immediately closed his call. Satria was well-intentioned for him, but Zeo was upset about it. The man interfered too much to bother his feelings. Ah, Zeo became worried that the man was waiting for him for too long. The message was sent this afternoon, while Zeo had just read it.

Just chill. Satria has returned ….
Satria didn't really come home. As Zeo was worried, Satria waited for Zeo too long: from day to night. Even Satria just got home after it was as late as possible.
The next day Satria was about to drive Zeo again, but he lost it a second time. He contacted Zeo, but the one who picked him up was Tiwi. Looks like Zeo's phone missed at his house. Already already, Satria can not stop just like that. He asked something that Tiwi could answer.
“Who's name aunt lo?” ask Satria. He tried to ask her carefully.
“Tante? What do you mean lo?” Tiwi sounded confused.
“What kind of challenge is it?”
“Kalo I can answer, Zeo will nerima love me.”
“Means you've been rejected, Sat!” tiwi.
“What do you mean?”
“Nyokap I'm an only child, while I only have two older brothers.”
Satria's mouth shook. The lightening on his eyes became sharp. His left hand clenched. No need to repeat, Satria already knew that she had been tricked by Zeo.
“So where is Zeo now?” ask Satria. The tone of the voice is different, more pressing.
“You what lo?!” Tiwi's voice sounded panicked. “Gue knows you are very disappointed, but that is not a reason for you to do anything to me.”
“ENGKAK!” sentak Satria's. Then Satria calmed herself down for a while. “Gue needs an explanation. I can't continue to be in this false hope,” he said with lower voice intonation.
“Ba-okay.” Tiwi sounded terrified. “Di-he is working part-time at the restaurant.”
“Send me the address,” Satria said.
“Ba-okay.”
Satria also closed her call. Before long, he received a Tiwi message containing the address of the restaurant where Zeo worked. Immediately he got on his bike and drove it to the address listed.
Although he had previously known that Zeo was working at the restaurant, Satria was still surprised after seeing directly when he got there. The woman walked to and fro with quick steps delivering food. Several times I was yelled at by some people. Too busy to be tired. I don't know what makes people as young as Zeo work that hard, but Satria is not used to seeing people she loves get such a hard life. Satria was not used to it and it had never happened in her life. Since childhood he lived only with his mother in a palace. His father had left his family since those days.
