Secret Face's
Chapter 7's

Prepare the supplies, then go to school. Asia crossed the path she always walked. Once he tried to look towards a place that was familiar to him, he remembered the incident yesterday. Maybe it was just a day after that moment. So Asia assumed she needed time to get used to the atmosphere this time.

At school...

Asia meets with Vika and Sarah. They started talking about the task. Not long after talking, the bell sign came in. All students sit on their own benches and start learning activities.

Hours they pass until the break arrives. Asia, Vika, and Sarah gather as usual to eat together. In ordinary places, they enjoyed the provisions while chatting. At that moment, Vika asked Asia something.

"Asia, I want to ask you."

Vika asked.

"Ask what ?"

"For example, if you meet someone who likes you. How's reaction? Are you going to accept it?"

Ask Vika.

"I don't know. I don't want to think about it."

Asia answered as if she didn't care.

"Eh.. Why that?"

"I know what you mean. It has to do with yesterday, right?"

Reply Asia with annoyance.

"No Asia. Most of those who came when we had lunch together were also none of them who escaped my judgment."

Said Vika.

"really? How strange. Why do you make such a show. Huft.. I guess that's my answer. You guys know, right? right now I don't want to think of anything like that."

Reveal Asia and end their conversation at that time.

The three of them returned to class after the break.

Asia does what's in her book. But sometimes he stopped because he thought of something. He seemed to shake his head when the movement of his hands stopped suddenly. His eyes closed several times as if he wanted to refocus on his learning activities.

"Let's focus !"

Asia pressed the pen that was in her hand.

The clock continues to turn. Until the end of school time.

Asia returns home with her close friends Sarah and Vika. They walk while joking.

And when only halfway through, Sarah and Vika say goodbye to Asia first.

"Sorry Asia. I got a message from my mom to go to your brother's house right now. I'll say yes."

Vika leaves Asia.

And so did Sarah who joined the farewell afterwards on the grounds of wanting to go to a store looking for something.

"I'm going first to Asia !"

"But Sarah.. I can keep you company."

Asia wanted to accompany him.

"Sorry Asia. This is so sudden. I gotta hurry. See you tomorrow."

Sarah left Asia alone.

Seeing their sudden departure, of course, made Asia astonished. But if that's true, he doesn't think he needs to think too much about it. Asia then walked home.

The train barricaded his movement for a moment. The sirens sounded pretty loud. And Asia just kept looking at the path that was in front of her. The train did not disturb his view. Asia daydreamed until she didn't realize the train was over.

The streets were empty as usual. The atmosphere was so calm in the silence. Then, Asia was still fixated without any reaction.

"I...Don't know anymore."

Mumbled Asia for a moment.

A few moments later, someone's voice came from behind. Voice calling. Yeah. called her name, "Asia". Hearing the call, Asia turned her head and turned her body slowly towards the back.

Someone seemed to be walking closer to him. Wearing a school uniform similar to her school, Asia stared until the person was nearby. A man who was in school with him came over suddenly.

"How are you ?"

Asia was silent without saying anything as the man asked for news.

"Hey. You're okay, aren't you ?"

Ask back to Asia.

The response from an Asian just nodded without saying a word.

"It's good that you're okay. And now you want to go home right ?"

Asia nodded back.

"Hm. Why don't you talk ? Is something wrong ? Or because..."

"No Niko. There's nothing. I'll go home first. See you soon."

Asia cuts her speech, then leaves from there.

The man she had just met was Niko. His schoolmate and classmate with him. Asia still disliked the figure of the man. More than anything that has ever happened before.

Asia is now walking home. The road through which it passes is no stranger. And even more familiar is an old building that is near there. Asia turned to the direction where the old building was while walking. The towering weeds closed some of the shape of the building from a distance. Already away from the area. Asia still thinks of someone. Some time has been spent with a guy named Jim. Although not entirely, he felt Jim had an influence in his life. It continued to lie in his head until it reached his residence.

At home, Asia lies down in her school uniform. Holding his forehead and still thinking about Jim and the moments of togetherness between them.

"Is this correct ? What am I doing this is the best way ? Hm.. It seems to have been."

Closing both eyes, then trying to drift in the silence of the room.

But a moment later, the silence was broken caused by the sound of Asian mobile phone notifications. Get up and check your phone. A message came in from his friends, Sarah and Vika.

"Eh ?! Vika is already ? They're very fast in terms of holding men."

A notification message from Vika stating that she is officially dating her new lover, Fred. Sarah greeted him happily and sent her congratulations. Asia also sent congratulations to her friend.

"Vika is made. And Sarah was close to the man she loved. They're really intent on this."

Asia said while staring at her phone screen.

Asia rushes to clean up after that, she sits on the edge of the bed.

Asia revives her phone and sees her social media. He saw a post that caught his attention. Post from Vika a few minutes ago. Seen his friend with the lover so friendly. This made Asia a little weak.

"They're so friendly. Just been made. Uhm Sweet."

Asian Smile.

After that, Asia turned off her phone and glazed over. He looked at himself reflected in the mirror. He thinks about himself.

"Can I be like them ? But I don't really understand about special relationships. Duh ! now I'm even curious about the person who will become my lover. Huft !"

Asia sighed while thinking about her. Vika's romanticism had an influence on her.
