“Not so. It's just that you look weird. You wear long-sleeved clothes in the summer. Are you afraid of being black?” Yohan smiled.


“No. It's because I have a wound in the arm.” “Oh, is that it?” yohan.


“Maybe we can have a beer, with the residents of this building, if you want.”


“Wah, do you guys also do it often in the building?” ask Yohan curiously. “Of course. There are only a few people in this place. Everything is the same age, so, it will feel more comfortable.”


“Wah, great idea. I agree with that.” Yohan smiled.


“Then, excuse me,” Rocky left Jack and Yohan.


“Please. Have a great day,” said Yohan watching Rocky go up the stairs.


“Wah. That guy is very handsome.” Yohan still sees Rocky walking away. “So much as you are, Jack. You're also handsome. All the residents here seem handsome. Gosh darn. I'm so envious.”


A few steps Yohan walked, Jack still standing and looking at Rocky from a distance.


“Jack!” Yohan called because Jack had not yet moved from his place. “Jack! Why are you still there?”


Jack dazed and continued his steps. “If you don't have an appointment today, will you see my show?”


“Good. Than I was in this place. I better go with him,” muttered Jack inwardly.


“Sure, I'll see your show. Let's go.”


Yohan was very happy with that.


“Don't laugh at me, if I look bad, Jack. Hahaha.” “Of course not. Why should I laugh at you.”


“Omong-by the way, where is the show location?” ask Jack.


“Follow me.”


***


In a suburban park. The park is not quiet and not crowded enough.


Some young couples who are dating, parents who bring their children to play on the playground, make the park seem even more alive.


Yohan and Jack are in the middle of the park. Yohan started to turn on her portable sound, then hooked it up to the guitar.


“Here, Jack. I'll do it here.”


Jack looked around.


“The first song I'm going to bring is, Justin Bieber's song, and if there's still time, I'll bring you my own song I've created.”


“It seems like the first time I've seen someone perform in the park. Usually, I see most people doing it inside a cafe or restaurant,” Jack said.


“I'm tired of performing in cafes or restaurants. I just wanted to find a new atmosphere so I wouldn't feel nervous. I'm not as good as you think, Jack. You just sit back and listen to it casually. Hahahaha.”


“Sit there, Jack. You can see me casually there.” Yohan pointed at the empty park bench and told Jack to look at it from that bench.


Jack smiled, then headed towards the empty bench.


After Jack sat down, Yohan smiled at him, then started singing.


Everyone in the park starts to arrive, as Yohan starts to sing.


Some people sing along and some enjoy the sound of Yohan which is great for a street musician.


When he was done, everyone clapped and gave him some money, as a tip for Yohan.


They all felt very comforted and were happy to hear Yohan's melodious voice.

The doctor's clinic was named DEMASTER, with Rocky being his doctor at the site.


It turns out Rocky has become a subscription doctor for Rose, every time Rose wants to do a medical check up.


Before Rose came to the place, she had already gone around and found out all about the residents of SALOKA RESIDENT, especially with Eli, the Owner of the building.


Rose discovers that, before Eli managed the boarding house, he managed an orphanage.


The orphanage also has the same name as Rocky's clinic DEMASTER.


Rose came to the clinic to check further, instead of her for an examination.


Rose stood up and looked at the clinic. In front of him was a large inscription on the banner, DEMASTER CLINIC.


Upon Rose's arrival at the clinic, she was immediately greeted by a receptionist who arranged the schedule.


“With whom?” ask the officer.


“Rose. I have an appointment with Rocky's doctor at this hour,” Rose said.


“Good. Previous treatment is almost finished, please wait a moment.”


Rose walked to the lobby where she was waiting, and looked at the photos.


Many of Rocky's photos received an award from several foundations and clubs in the city.


And a photo showing Eli, the Twins and Rocky taking a picture together in front of an orphanage.


Rose continued to watch the photos closely, and her mind kept wondering.


“It was a photo when I was giving care to the elderly around here,” said Rocky who came and saw Rose looking at her photos.


“Hmm, so.” Rose turned her body and looked down awkwardly.


“I do that once a month, do you want to come with me?” ask Rocky. “What? Wait.” Rose confused.


“By the way, Doctor Rocky. Do you know the DEMASTER orphanage?”


“The name is the same as this clinic. Of course I know, I am also from that orphanage.”


“Hah?” Rose is confused.


“Then I named this clinic by the name DEMASTER. I want to help others, just like the orphanage did.”


“Then do you know this guy?” Rose pointed to Eli in the photo.


“Aunt Eli? He used to be the head of the orphanage where I lived. Although it seems like a cliche, I already consider her like my own mother. Currently, he is managing...”.


“SALOKA RESIDENT?” said Rose. “Wah, apparently you know. Right too, this is your territory while on duty. I also live in that place,” said Rocky with his leisure and remain calm.


“What? Why do you live in a place like that?” ask Rose in wonder. “It...Actually there is an apartment that I will live in, but suddenly the date of entry is delayed.” Rocky scratched his head and smiled.


Rocky is very smart to pretend and understand his interlocutor, so that makes Rose feel not so suspicious of him, although there is still something that stands in his way for Rose.


“Gosh, it seems like I'm talking to you too much. I actually wanted to stay there because I wanted to live with Aunt Eli. I just want to repay all the kindness he ever gave me.”


“Oh, so it seems. I understand now,” said Rose. “It seems, you want to know more about me.”


“Not so. It's just that I found a lot of coincidences that have happened. Alright. Forget it.” Rose scratched her head a little embarrassed.


“Good. Can I check on you now?” “Ya, sure.”


They both entered the check room.
