"May I sit down?" asked a schoolgirl, braids her, with thick glasses.
"May." said Erik.
"You're a 12th grader IPA 1 huh?"
"Yes." Yeah."
"Meet me, my name is Mela" he said, extending his hand.
"Erik." replied Erik, shaking hands.
"Your hands are very delicate" said Mela.
"Thank you."
"You've been living abroad for a long time?"
"A long time, from birth."
"I want to go abroad, even want to study there. You have a plan to go back there, no?"
"It depends on the parents."
"Oh yeah, uh you want to sit down with April? just keep asking for Dimas Cs. "
"Because I first knew them."
"We always avoid them, Dimas was famously fond of Bully, but there was no firm action mentang - mentang still descendants of the foundation owners. If April, beautiful but she's sad. If anyone hurts him directly, he'll take out the nurse."
"May know about April no?"
"What do you want to ask?"
"He doesn't have any friends here?"
"He seems to be limiting friends here, who dare only Dimas. You see April looks rough, you know for yourself what if she talks."
"Yes I know."

"Once you are lazy to use a motorbike, anyways you do ask - ask really the same kepo people's business."
"Now I want to take a bell, I take it."
"What are you doing?"
"I took a taxi, we got yuk together."
"No thanks."
"Yes, I went home first" said Erik and immediately stopped the taxi that stopped right in front of him.
April was silent, as Erik entered. And immediately April chased and immediately opened the taxi door.
"I'm coming" said April.
Even the taxi was on the road, April just kept quiet all the way and did not sit leaning back in the passenger seat.
"Why are you, like, tense is it sitting?"
"No." said April.
"Sandaran dong sat down."
"No thanks."
Erik and April remained silent until April asked the taxi driver to stop at one of the hospitals.
"Stop sir." said April.
"Tok the hospital?"
"Yes, thank you" said April immediately down.
Erik went down, and followed April. April's move stopped, as Erik followed suit.
"Why do you follow me?"
"What do you wonder who is sick?"
"You're so good, that's where you go home. Don't get near me, there you go."
"So you'll take a taxi with me."
"Oh you're asking for damages?"
"Mom - no, I have good intentions."
"I said you're leaving."
"Why are you?"
"Go there" said April directly walking in.
"It is appropriate, said Mela April chose to stay away from it, her movements are always monitored" he said in his heart.

"This is the bill, it still has to be paid 30 million more."
"Thank you, then I will pay it off" said April.
April turned her head towards the man sitting in the patient's waiting chair, and April immediately sat down with him.
"I'm asking you not to be too familiar with the man."
"I'm sorry, I was riding with him."
"Don't get caught if you get caught you shoot yourself."
"Yes, I get it."
"You still need money, right? come by at 8pm tonight, at the ex-cinema building. There's a red car stopping, you get in it. There's a new task you have to do, not use to argue."
"Can I ask you something?"
"What?"
"If one day I get caught and die shot, can I ask to pay off and guarantee my sister's treatment, until she recovers? with yesterday, it was the first time, I was afraid of it happening again. My sister, just have me no family anymore."
"It depends, because it's none of our business" the man said and left.
April could only shed her tears, having already made the wrong decision, just for the sake of Clara's recovery.
"I'm sorry, brother, this is all for you."

"Elang, why are you moving on your own?" ask Willy.
"I'm sorry, that was out of scenario. I just want to be close to April." replied the Eagle.
"Remember, don't let your disguise be known."
"Just calm down, while I can play smart."

"Obviously, one bottle of beer. I want to drink with you."
"I'm sorry, I'm at work" said April, pouring beer into a glass.
"Come on, I want you to accompany me. Tonight, I pay you 5 million."
"There are still many comfort women here, I'm not a butterfly."
"What did you say yesterday that's still the original you?"
"I'm not a butterfly."
The eagle finished his drink, then poured it again into the glass. The eagle continued to stare at April, while it was serving visitors.
"How long have you been a bartender?"
"You ask? sorry I won't answer."
The Eagle smiled as he drank his beer, The Eagle continued to stare towards the careless April, and remained relaxed feeling no uneasiness as the Eagle stared at him.
Just then, there was a man sitting beside the Eagle, and April immediately went and was replaced by another Bartender.
The eagle watched April coming out of the Club, and the man beside the Eagle kept staring at her.
"Don't bother him, if you want the butterflies you choose another one" he said.

April has arrived at a former Cinema building, not far from the direction of her eyes, at 12 o'clock. Seen a red car, April then walked towards the car and entered.
"You're interracial and fake this foreign currency, they're waiting for you at the subway station. When the train leading to the extended malacca station stops, there will be a man who will approach you using a finger cipher."
"Good Boss."
"Remember, don't let your movements smell again. As always, when caught you should immediately shoot yourself to the head."
"Good Boss."
"Finish the task, I'll transfer you."
In April, he got out of the car with a suitcase. Then move on to another car.

"That means, he was originally threatened." said the Eagle as he lay on the bed.
"He's a courier, it's really hard to live. I need to find out who is in the hospital. I have to go there tomorrow, to find out."
