Rain Teach Me Strong
Pick up Zee

Marshall's been waiting for Zee in front of his boarding house for a long time, but until this hour Zee hasn't come home, but it's nine o'clock in the evening.. Marshall sighed, as it had been almost an hour and a half, Marshall was waiting for Zee to come home.

In the end, Marshall chose to go home, but when it was almost at the end of the alley. Marshall sees Zee getting out of a fancy car. Marshall squinted his eyes, seeing Zee waving his hand at someone in the car.

Marshall immediately drove his bike closer to Zee, who had now started walking. Marshall stops his bike in front of Zee.

"Who are you going home with?" insist Marshall, who inexplicably dislikes Zee in between by others.

"Kok, are you here?" asked Zee who was surprised and asked back.

"Since when I've been here, it doesn't matter. Now you answer, who's taking you home?" marshall questions who brought Zee home.

"Just a co-worker."

"male or female?"

"It doesn't matter who I'm with? You better go home sonoh, don't take me to kosan, plus I'm tired," said Zee, then Zee again swung his footsteps leaving Marshall who was still on his bike.

The morning sun has now emitted its bias. A handsome young man already looked neat in his school uniform.

Marshall was standing in front of the mirror, re-examining his appearance which was actually very okay. Marshall glanced at the clock on the wall, then Marshall grabbed his bag and rushed downstairs for breakfast.

"Good morning...." Sapa Marshall to Hana who is preparing her morning breakfast.

"Hm... Tumben Abang jam is coming down. Usually also at half-seven hours just out of the room," said Hana who did know the habits of her children.

"Why can't you wake up earlier?"

"It's okay, it's good. But it would be strange if Abang jam this time has come down and also very neat. Must be because of the girl?" Guess Hana narrowed her eyes.

Marshall grinned a horse. "Bucan knows, if you want to pick up a girl," said Marshall could not lie to Hana. Although Hana is not his birth mother, but Hana's love for him is as great as for his biological children, so Marshall always tries to be honest and obedient to Hana. Even if he lied, his foster mother would know that he was lying.

"Who? Liora?"

"No," replied Marshall, grabbing a sandwich Hana had made.

"Tumben once a bachelor kid is already at the dinner table?" Said the newly arrived Aries and immediately sat down in his chair.

"Abang wants to leave early" said Marshall, who had finished his breakfast.

"Yes, leave early. Just pick up the girls," said Hana.

Aries squinted his eyes at Marshall. "Don't keep going, bang. Think of the school."

"Yes, dad. School and learning remain number one" Marshall replied. " So you go first."

Marshall approaches Hana and lands a sweet peck on Hana's cheek and also does not forget to kiss the back of the hand of the woman who has given her affection. Marshall also kisses Aries' hand, after which Marshall breezes away from home.

Marshall had arrived in front of Zee's boarding house, then Marshall stepped towards the boarding house and knocked on Zee's boarding room door. Starting today, Marshall will continue to shuttle Zee, let alone last night Zee was escorted by others, and see from his shadow seen that drove Zee home is a man.^^^

Tok tok tok tok

The door was opened by Zee. "You...! " Zee was surprised by the arrival of Marshall who was standing before him.

"Hi...." Sapa Marshall while smiling.

"Why are you here early in the morning?"

"Fetch you" replied Marshall lightly.

"Fetch me?"

"Well, it's your neighbor's pick-up time" Marshall said.

"Next time do not have to pick me up," said Zee while taking his bag on the mattress.

"Why? What a shame to your bolt, if I pick you up," Marshall said slightly offended. Usually if other girls will be happy to be picked up with him, but different from Zee. He did not want to be picked up by her, but he was willing to wake up early so he could pick up the girl in front of him.

"Tomorrow don't pick me up again. I don't want anything to misunderstand us, but we have nothing to do. Just Deket doang, that's also you who continue to decetin me," said Zee as he walked towards the Marshall motorbike.

"But I'll still pick you up, even if you refuse," said Marshall, who was replied by Zee by choking his lips annoyed.

Marshall hands the helmet to Zee, after which Zee wears it straight up to the bonnet of his motorcycle.

About twenty minutes later, Marshall arrived at school and parked his motorbike. Zee immediately took off his helmet and will step up first soon.

"Wait," Marshall clumsily held Zee's hand.

"Otherwise!" Pissed Zee.

"We are together in class" said Marshall while tidying up his slightly messy hairdo.

Zee blows his breath and Zee is forced to walk along to class with Marshall. As she turns her class, Zee and Marshall meet Liora, who is standing in front of her class. His gaze was so sharp towards Zee.

"Disregard it," Marshall slurried Zee's hand straight to his class.

"Let go!"

"No way," Marshall chuckled.

"I don't want people to misunderstand me. Later on we date," said Zee who tried to release his hand from Marshall's hand.

" Just leave it. I don't care about people talking and just leave them with their assumptions, which I obviously don't want to bother with" Marshall said.

Finally Zee, still let his hand hold by Marshall, until he entered the classroom. All eyes were on Zee and Marshall, even whispering that Zee was the cause of the breakup between Liora and Marshall.

Zee immediately sat on his stool, Tieta's gaze so fixed on him.

"You're dating Marshall?"

"No," Zee replied honestly.

"But how are you holding hands?" Tieta asked again.

"Indeed why? Handholding doesn't mean she and I are dating, does it?" Tukas Zee's.

"Yes, too, but people think you and Marshall must be dating" Tieta said.

"But it's not. It's not discussed anymore, which is clear me and he is not dating," Zee said.

"OK...."

The time of rest arrived. Marshall immediately tilted his body to the back where Zee was sitting.

"To the canteen yuk," Marshall asked.

"No! I'm gonna go to class" Zee refused and tried to avoid Marshall, even though it was hard for him to avoid Marshall.

"Aren't you going to the cafeteria?"

"Hmmm...."

"Yes, I'm going to the cafeteria first."

"Yes...."

Marshall went to the cafeteria. Zee who was in class focused more on reading books, until Tieta came to disperse her focus on reading books.

"Aren't you in the cafeteria, Zee?" Tieta asked as she opened her bag and picked up her wallet.

"No, lazy," replied Zee.

"If so I go to the cafeteria first yes," Tieta said as she walked away from Zee.

Zee nodded and refocused on the book again, and Zee really didn't leave the class until the break was over.

Ting

one message went to Zee's phone.

Go home to school, pick you up.
