Time keeps passing. Days changed by week. And weeks changed months. One month. Two months finally passed.
Passing two months with the busyness of college and home assignments are increasingly quite time-consuming. Alex, Justin, and Mandy still come to Losa sometimes not every week. They are now busy preparing job application letters and looking for suitable jobs. My relationship with Alex has not changed. I still have no interest in him. Just consider him an ordinary friend. That Sienna and Justin don't need to be talked about anymore. They're getting more friendly. While Mandy still likes to be alone.
But from all the news, there is good news again. My closeness to Edgar. For the past two months we have been making friends. I knew there were dozens of pairs of eyes watching with envy or dislike the sight of my closeness to Edgar. I'm basically a dumb person, so I don't care what they think. As long as they don't act too outrageously let alone bully, I still feel calm.
For the past two months also letter by letter without a name I still often receive. Every three days, the mysterious letter always comes. The contents also do not change, if not a postcard must be a photo with a short message. Surprisingly all the postcards and photos are set in New Angeles. Never in another city. Because I'm used to the mysterious letter I don't think about it much anymore and make it commonplace.
Even so I still often felt heavy and cold hands clinging to my forehead while I was fast asleep. Always when I wake up I find nothing. And again this is not a dream. I was completely conscious, awakened by that cold hand caress.
Now we are entering early September. I never expected as much as last month. I just need some spirit. Completed college until next year. Then find a job and live independently. I don't want to bother Aunt Jane anymore. He's been too good to me. I'm mature enough and have to manage my own life. Therefore I studied harder in order to get the best grades and get a promising job later.

College hours are over. I'm picking up the books in the locker. I went home alone today. Sienna's gone with Suzan. From behind the door of the locker that opened suddenly Edgar's face appeared.
"Hello, Eriza!" sapana.
I jumped but I didn't scream. Slowly patting the chest. Edgar laughing.
"Just surprised!" I said.
"Sorry! Did you have any plans this afternoon?" ask Edgar.
"No. I intend to go home soon!" my answer.
"Then we go eat first, yeah! I paid!" take Edgar.
"I'm still full! Next time!" push me smooth.
"Small food only. Afternoon snack! Comeon!" persuade Edgar.
I was silent for a moment. Considering accepting Edgar's invitation or not. It was not the first time he had invited me to eat.
"cn .... But, after that go straight home, right?" ask before agreeing.
"Yes" answered Edgar.
"All right, I'm leaving!" I said.
"Well, so!" edgar was happy.
I immediately closed my locker and left with Edgar. There's another reason I'm reluctant to go with him. I don't feel comfortable going with Edgar driving a fancy car. Coupled with the gaze of the entire campus girl that was pointing at us. Although it does not matter but there is a little bit of anxiety as well. They whisper to each other. Enough to make a puff. I realized from the moment I got close to Edgar they were all starting to notice me. From the movement to the way of dressing. I may be less skilled at make-up but my fashion sense is pretty good. That's according. Hehe ....
We arrived at the parking lot. Edgar opened the car door for me. I went inside and Edgar followed. After that, the car left the campus. Without knowing where Edgar would take me.
Our destination finally arrived at a coffee shop. We got down and entered the shop. The fragrant aroma of coffee is immediately smelled as soon as it enters this classic-style cafe. Edgar led me to a table. Pulling up my chair and letting me sit down. For the umpteenth time I was impressed.
A waiter came and handed me a menu book. Then Edgar handed the menu book to me.
"Message what you like!" said.
I'm taking a breath. Open the menu book. Quite confused by the large menu list and the language that is difficult to pronounce.
"I want bread to be my favorite menu here! All the drinks are warm if any" I said to the waiter. The waiter nodded.
"Good choice, Miss!" praise Edgar. Edgar chose his own menu. And the waiter noted it.
As soon as the waiter left Edgar asked,
"Why not choose the one in the menu list?"
"I was confused so much. I don't know which is better. Besides, you like to take me to eat in these strange places, "I replied calmly.
Edgar laughing.
"Bored or not, it still tastes good. I don't have a lot of money to be able to choose where to eat and what kind of expensive food," I said a bit embarrassed.
"That's why I'm taking you!" said Edgar.
"But I don't feel good if you pay!" I said with a bad word.
"Are we not friends? No need to be confused anymore. If you want to please someone, do not count money. Money is not worth much compared to the happiness of others" Edgar said.
"Trims, yes!" my reply. That's the only word I can say.
Edgar nodded with a smile on his face.
Shortly thereafter the waiter came with our order. We started to enjoy it while occasionally joking. As Edgar promised, after eating he drove me home.
I walked into the house. In the living room was Sienna and Suzan. Suzan immediately scoffed.
"Well, who just got home from a date. So exciting! Where'd you go?"
"Who's out on a date? We just go eat" I replied. I joined the two girls.
"It must have been like eating with the prince!" suzan said with his imagination.
"Why could that be?" my many.
"Because Edgar definitely couldn't have brought you to eat by the side of the road! Yeah, right? Tell me which restaurant you eat at? Are there many servants? Delicious dishes?" suzan asked.
"Suzan, we're just eating bread at a cafe. There are no servants or special services. Just like eating at the usual place to eat," I explained straighten out.
"Ah time? He's so rich but he's just asking you to eat bread? So ticklish!" suzan sneered.
"It's a pretty fancy cafe in my opinion. Ah, don't think too much, Suzan! I'm not very happy to be paid for by him" I said honestly.
"So, are you guys really dating?" Sienna asked suddenly.
"No. We're just friends! " my answer is quick.
"Then, when did you decide to date?" ask Sienna again.
"Sienna, what are you talking about? That's pretty impossible!" confused answer.
"Yes right, you guys are so close. Why not just date? I noticed Edgar seemed to have an interest in you!" Suzan.
"Have it, you don't talk no. I might be dating her. Just walking with him often makes me less!" I said.
"Minder why?" Suzan asked innocently.
"Imagine he's handsome and smart, I'm normal. He's rich, I'm not. He is also famous on campus. He should be looking for something worth it!" I'm explaining.
"Not really. Love does not look at status. Isn't that right, Suzan?" said Sienna.
"Rubber!" suzan Sahut.
"Not to talk about Edgar anymore. By the way, why is Russell so rarely seen?" ask me to change the topic.
"He's heartbroken!" suzan replied bluntly.
"Who?" my many.
"Riza, you're not aware, are you? Actually Russell likes you. That's why it follows us everywhere. As soon as you and Edgar get along, he gets discouraged and gives up. The boy hasn't fought back yet!" replace Sienna who answered.
"Oh, it's worth it from the beginning his attitude is strange! You guys are also suddenly weird! But honestly I'm not interested!" I said cuek.
"Yes .... Who could interest you besides Edgar!?" Suzan scoffed.
"Edgar again .... Nevermind! I'm going to go upstairs first!" I said and left Sienna and Suzan to go up to the room.
