Our Joke
Not Important Anyway

All the students of the 12th grade of Helius High School were gathered in the hall. They have socialization events going to college.

Adel, Dita, and Andi sat next to each other. I don't know why Andi lately can be said to be quite close to Adel. It seems that he kept a big secret between Adel and his best friend, Nao.

The event has not started yet because there are still some classes that have not come including Nao class.

Andi looked at the watch circling her wrist "Where the hell are my friends?" he then looked at the entrance.

Not long after, three people appeared waiting for Andi. Andi waved her hand and patted the empty chair beside her.

Malvin was aware of the cue given by Andi. He returned a glance at Andi's hand and nudged Nao's arm and pointed at Andi's whereabouts with his chin.

Nao's gaze was directed at Adel who was laughing with Dita.

"Beautiful" he mumbled.

"Huh? Lo said what?" Kevin who faintly heard Nao's words, replied.

"That's Andi" he replied. Nao pointed to Andi's whereabouts.

Kevin follows Nao's index finger "Oh"

"Yaudah come on over there, the seat next to her is still empty" Kevin asked later. He walked first.

Malvin held back laughter hearing the random conversation of his two best friends.

Nao stared flatly at Malvin "What lo?"

"Funny too, look at lo bucin gini"

Nao clucked "Who is also the bucin"

"Gue heard what you said" Malvin chuckled again. While Nao was just staring at him flatly.

Malvin then pushes Nao's body "Udah, let's go to where Andi is to get closer"

The two walked after Kevin who had almost reached the seat beside Andi.

"Eits.lo there, this chair is for Nao" Andi held the body of Kevin who was about to sit on the chair right next to him.

Kevin clucked resentfully "Apaan the hell lo, the same time" he tried to sit down, but still blocked Andi.

"No way, this is specifically for Nao" Andi pushed Kevin's body which made him sit on the edge of the chair.

Kevin sneers. He had to sit there and fold his hands.

Andi stood up as soon as Nao and Malvin arrived. He invited Nao to sit in his seat right next to Adel.

Andi showed her teeth while pointing at the chair. His eyes glanced at the sign of Adel.

Nao smiled thinly. He sat in the chair given to him by Andi.

Dita who was busy joking with laughter with Adel, suddenly gawking at the presence of Nao which made Adel surprised to look at him.

"Lo why, Dit?" ask Adel.

"Nao, Del" Dita's gaze was still centered on Nao.

"Huh? Whahuh? Nao?"

Dita nodded her head slowly "After you"

Adel turned. His eyes were round seeing Nao actually beside him.

Nao smiles smirk "Hello"

"What's going on here?" ask Adel later.

Nao glanced, pointing at Andi. Adel turned to look sharply at Andi. Andi raised only both eyebrows.

Adel snorted in annoyance. Could it be, just one day I don't deal with people? adel's mind thrashed.

Nao chuckled as he looked straight ahead making Adel turn to look at him in wonder.

"Lo must have been late" he said with a straight forward view because the event had already begun.

"Lo was intentional, right?" Adel pursues his views as Nao.

Adel turned to "Why are you talking now?" his weakness.

"Eat him, you thank my friend and my follback" explained Nao.

"Just because of that? Basic, childish. It's not important either" Adel looked straight back.

"Lo said it wasn't important?" Nao looked at Adel.

"Hm" Adel so casually replied. He folded his hands. Adel turned his head and stuck his tongue out at Nao.

Nao closed his eyes to suppress his emotions. Only this time he was considered insignificant by a girl.

"I can finally go on the bus again" he said happily as he clapped after one of the speakers finished.

"Lo doesn't like to go with me?" ask Nao later.

"No. At all. Ribet it's the same if you"

"Lo diem dong, don't make sure I chat a free moment I come to this hall" he continued later.

Nao screeched "Who is also the one who is not going to talk. So girls don't fuck"

"Gue is not a piety, but you are the one who spoke first" Adel stuck out his tongue again.

There was a heavy sigh beside Adel. But the girl really doesn't care about it. He has refocused on the show.

"Del, I'm ahead well, papa I've picked up" Dita said goodbye when the show was over.

Adel then waved his hand. He wants to stand up and go home. But he felt his phone shake. He immediately took it out of his pocket. Her smile just found Daniel sending her a message.

"Have you returned?"

"Yet. Just socializing"

"Gue pick me up, I'm through"

"Okay, be careful Daniel"

"Yes Adel. I'll tell you again when I get there"

"okay"

The smile on Adel's face was not lost. He just seems to be getting happier.

Andi and Malvin stared in wonder, why Nao was still sitting there when the event was over.

Andi patted Nao's shoulder at a glance "Non-back?"

Nao simply flicked his hand in response making Malvin again chuckle.

"Guilt him" he whispered to Andi. Andi reflexes chuckled at Malvin's speech.

"Luckily, Kevin's first, yaudah let's just go back instead of being a mosquito" they both passed by leaving Nao.

Nao. He found Adel smiling himself while staring at the phone screen. Nao tried to peek but nothing was seen.

"What's the same with who?"

Adel. He frowned seeing Nao still sitting beside him "Lo why hasn't he returned yet?"

Nao sighed "Nungguin lo"

"Huh? Would I want to go back the same? Notwithstanding. I have a promise with my friend" he said and stood up.

Nao cleared his throat, making Adel's steps void. Adel. He found Nao showing his phone. Adel stared at Nao's phone showing a message from his mother asking Adel to visit home.

Adel clucked in annoyance. His show to go home with Daniel threatened to fail. He did not know what kind of reason he had to tell Daniel.

***

Adel's going home with Daniel is Nao?
