The Trust In Timing
Empty Space
After traveling for approximately 1 hour and 40 minutes, Allen's car pulled over in the yard of Alora's boarding house but they still stayed in the car because Alora was asleep during the trip until she was unconscious until while Allen, seeing Alora who fell asleep made him unable to wake her. Allen pulled out his suit which Alora used as a blanket that almost fell as Alora moved to blanket him back and 10 minutes had already passed, Alora was still fast asleep and Allen could only stare at her still not dare to wake her up until he heard someone knocking on her car glass
"Cassie?" Alora awakens after Cassie knocks on the windshield next to her, seeing Cassie standing outside Alora lowering the windshield
"Lo, uh..?" Alora came to a halt as soon as she realized she was already in front of her hostel
"We're getting there?" Alora immediately turned her question to Allen, Allen nodded
"From when?"
"10 minutes ago, more or less"
"Why don't you know!"
"Lo sleeps"
"Can you get up!" Allen did not respond to Alora's protest and instead gestured with his eyes to Alora that Cassie was still watching them from outside the car. Alora immediately turned her gaze again at Cassie and immediately rushed down from the car
"Come on!" Alora then took Cassie's hand to invite her to immediately return to her boarding room
"Alora!"
"What the hell else?!" Alora groused in her heart as soon as she heard Allen's voice calling her, Alora turned her body and saw Allen carrying 2 large paper bags, Alora immediately approached her and immediately took the two paper bags from Allen's hands, he had almost forgotten about the clothes as well as some other items
"I'll pick up 10 o'clock"
"Hour 1" Barred Alora
"Gue needs a break!"
"OK!" This time Allen agreed because he also felt like he saw Alora who looked exhausted since earlier, after giving Alora's belongings, Allen returned to his car, turn on the engine of his car and then drive back to bring his car home.
"Aksan?" After watching Allen go Alora saw Aksan who was standing not far from where they were
"Hm, come!" Cassie stepped up to take Alora to Aksan
"It's so pretty today!" Aksan smilingly threw his praise at Alora as soon as Cassie and Alora were already standing before him
"Thanks! It's..." Alora looked at Cassie trying to get an answer from her
"So Aksan nemenin me to buy some stuff because since morning Hendri continues to pacing in front of the boarding house" Cassie explained the incident today to Alora
"Lo gapapa, right? He hurt you lo ga? She's..."
"Gue gapapa! Good thing Aksan is willing to let me. Thanks aye!" Cassie smiled sincerely thanking Aksan
"Look easy! I told you, I'll help you!"
"Yes, thank you!"
"Sans.okay, that's why I'm going home too"
"Oh yeah, once again thanks and be careful on the road"
"okay!"
"Be careful!" Alora added, after watching Allen come home now they witnessed Aksan who was also about to go home, he got into his car and within minutes the car was speeding up to be invisible to Alora and Cassie.
"Axsan? What's the matter?!" Alora looked at Cassie suspiciously
"Aigoo, there's nothing! Coincidence"
"Continue?"
"okayo! Ever since I apologized to Aksan at the office back then, he volunteered to help me" Cassie finally told Alora the truth
"She wants to help me pretend to be my girlfriend while Hendri is still holding me. At first I did not agree but last time I wanted to go to the boarding house to take some stuff I saw Hendri was pacing in front of the boarding house so after I thought I needed help Aksan at least until I dare to confront Hendri and scold him to stop interfering"
"Aigoo, I just found out that Aksan is like duli until he wants to pretend to be your girlfriend!" Alora shook Cassie's hand to tease her
"Aigoo, obviously because he likes you so much that he's nice to me!"
"uhuh?" Alora stopped after hearing Cassie's words
"Quiet down! he likes the same lo but also will not make you be his girlfriend especially after seeing you already have Allen. He said it was on me"
"And lo?"
"Gue's? I why?"
"Lo likes Aksan?"
"Gue's? Hahaha... Don't worry about talking!"
"Serious cave?!"
"No! Besides I just broke up not as easily as it likes again the same new person"
"Maybe not!"
"Hey!"
"I think Aksan is pretty good"
"Aigoo, why didn't you realize when he was chasing you!"
"I mean, pretty good for you! Ayo"

"Tumben came here early in the morning?!" Allen opened the door after Avi repeatedly pressed the bell to also contact him
"Let's open the door!" The morning protest broke into Allen's house
"Lo...again what?" Avi stopped when he saw some piles of cardboard in front of him
"Done some stuff" replied Allen as he rushed again to put the frame of the photos that had previously adorned his closet into the cardboard, photos of him with Alana
"Start!"
"Seriously?"
"Maybe"
"Kc...You still have doubts!"
"The new guitar will try"
"Because of Alora?"
"Because nyokap. Every day is always worried"
"Yaap lo bener. Aunty Kasian has to worry about you every day"
"Yes, there's no harm in trying"
"The finale! But first, you have to learn to let go of Alana, Okay?!" Allen looked at Avi
"Slowly" Avi immediately corrected his statement
"What's going on here?"
"I happen to be through here"
"So?"
"So I stopped by and checked your condition" Avi looked for an excuse
"Alora?"
"yep, she's the woman you were telling?" Avi immediately expressed his curiosity
"yes, he"
"That means you managed to convince him?"
"Yes by force"
"Money?"
"Yep"
"Euhhh, I guess she's a different woman who won't be tempted because the money turns out..."
"Because he's being pushed"
"But still, willing because of the money, right?"
"Also because he did not believe in love" Avi was silent after hearing Allen's answer, Allen's current state was enough to make his best friend was also confused especially after hearing the reason Alora agreed with Allen. Alora had made a good impression that almost made Avi believe her and also hope to make Allen come back to life but now, there was doubt in Avi's heart but he also did nothing because Allen who decided, giving advice to him would also only be useless and he just hoped that Alora would not be as bad as he thought
"That means he's benefiting you?"
"I'm more precisely the one who benefits him"
"How much did he ask?"
"1 M"
"Heuh! Courageous of that?"
"He didn't ask for free" Allen was busy making boxes after finishing emptying the ornamental cabinets and bookshelves in his living room and now the room looked empty, the photos that were previously installed are now neatly arranged in the cardboard whatever will fill the void again
"He sold his land to me"
"Sell land? What's for?"
"To settle his late father's debts. Forced to be sold to me because it's deadlines and the land is hard to sell" Allen explained to Avi as he lifted some cardboard to move it to the warehouse in the baseman
"Lo want to be? Helpin!" Allen pointed at some cardboard boxes with his eyes asking Avi to bring the boxes
"He's quite principled" Avi immediately brought the boxes and followed Allen, Allen smiling at Avi's words
"I mean I'm wrong"
"Eat him do not carelessly value people!"
"Wrong you've been clear from the start! Ehh but.. why do you care?"
"Lo wrong value people yes I have to be real"
"Usually you don't care about other people especially about my judgment of others. What's the matter?"
"Lo misvalued people because of me"
"Ga may! Do not-don't you..."
"As far as you!" Allen immediately cut Avi's speech and immediately put the boxes in the warehouse, Avi also did the same
"When are you back?"
"Excuse me?"
"Gue's going to get Alora"
"Date?" Avi smiled seductively at Allen
"heuhh" Allen sighed
"Gue go first! Whatever you want to do!"
"Ehhh... Don't go back! Take a good meal and don't bother Alora too much" Allen went straight to his car not caring about Avi who shouted to warn him also teasing him. Seeing Allen who had disappeared with his car Avi again hope that Alora really able to fill the void in Allen's life.
