The Unusual Highschool Days
A mark

Alfian woke up and blinked his eyes slowly when he found a beam of sunlight infiltrating through the gap of the curtain slightly open. The young man got up slowly and stretched his body.he was about to wake Eric up because today is not a holiday. But, to his surprise, he realized that the King-size mattress beside him was empty.

“Gue... left?”

The young man immediately checked the clock on his cell phone.the new time showed at six in the morning. It was impossible for Eric to leave for school this early, as the school entrance hour at Santana Senior Highschool was eight in the morning.

Alfian immediately got up from his bed, and left without folding his blanket. Bizarrely. He also realized that Eric's blanket wasn't on his bed.

“What Eric moved room?” Alfian speculated.

Confused, Alfian finally decided to go to the room Ivana occupied.

Ivana opens the door to her room, discovering that Alfian is awake and still wearing her nightgown.

“Lo not ready to go to school? don't tell me if you forgot to bring a uniform” guess Ivana.

“Lo see Eric not?” ask Alfian. Before arriving at Ivana's room, she asked several maids who were busy cleaning the house. But none of them knew where Eric was.

“Negotted. I just woke up just as you ngetok my door. moved room times.

“Hey, I'm not snoring. I also thought Eric moved rooms, so I asked the maid here. But apparently, no one saw” said Alfian confused.

“I know where Eric...” said one of the maids who approached Alfian and Ivana arrived. Judging from his face, he looked older than most of the workers who worked in Gildereich's residential neighborhood. “mari..” The woman showed her way to Ivana and Alfian.

Both Alfian and Ivana were a bit confused because the road the woman pointed out was the way to the room that Eric had occupied with Alfian.

“He was missing from the room loh bi, when I woke up, Eric was not in his bed” Alfian tried to explain.

“Mas Eric is still in the room. You just don't know his place.” replied the woman sure.

“By the way..How come only aunts know where Eric is? others also look ordinary once I said Eric lost” asked Alfian curious.

“Maclum, all workers here except me are freelancers who are contracted for three months only. They do not know too closely with Eric, they have been told that Eric is unique. It is not unusual for him to be lost. As a person who worked here long enough, I already know where Eric hid” mas helper explained.

He opened Eric's room door and pointed to a large cupboard located in the corner of the room.

“Try checking there..”.

Ivana Langusng stepped in, and found that Eric was fast asleep in the closet, his whole body wrapped in a blanket that he took from his own bed. Eric blinked his eyes, he was quite surprised when he saw Alfian and Ivana already in his presence.

“Cepet wake up, sleep in a kayak gini is not good for lo” posture said Ivana flat.

"So, how long have you been doing something like gini?” Ivana opened the conversation. At the moment, they are enjoying breakfast at the dinner table.

“Since... events five years ago.if a nightmare or what.

“What do you do often enough to do kayak gini? Is there anything that disturbs your mind at the end of this?” ask Ivana again.

Eric was silent for a moment.he recalled his dream last night.

“Gue dreamin... something strange.”

Eric sipped a glass of water before continuing his story.

“Gue dreams of meeting King, in the same place Archein he. oh, it happens that his Archein King resembles the place where he died three years ago. He died from failing to become Lilith's container. I don't know I don't understand. What is clear..he apologizes equally all the problems that he timbulin” Eric recounted his dream.

“If it's not all him.I can't possibly not forgive him. Now I'm quite relieved. Hopefully King has been in a better place now” said Ivana finally.

“Oh yes, I forgot to tell you about the continuation of the incident kemaren” Alfian spoke up. “pak Nathanael told me, if all of those events have been handled by the Bellkarta Police Special Unit. We may all be asked to shut up about this incident, after all. if we talk about events that do not make sense, our ability also falls into the category of absurd it is. About King's death, too, because he was an orphan living in Bellkarta, there was no family or relatives who were keen, and this case was closed as a Special Case category. Gio uses too much of his Copycat abilities, so he may need further treatment.” Alfians explained.

“Continue, where is he underwritten?” ask Ivana curiously.

“Dia. His body suddenly became younger three years after his vital signs stopped working, traces of Ether in his body, Hypnosis ability in his eyes Alfian speculates. “emang sad anyway, he died and no one even nyariin. Who would have thought that a King had lived, maybe only we and children who had dealt with El diablo”

Ivana took a long breath.

“Gue... quite sad ngedenger this” revealed his honest.

“Gue thinks, King is already peaceful in nature there. And whatever happens to his body in this world, it's not his business anymore. Not that I do not empathize, but I hope, there is something to be gained from the phenomenon that happened to King. It's the same with Lilith as well.”

Alfian nodded his head.

“After the incident as well, Lilith was lost so. no one can trace her whereabouts. Besides, I was curious as to what happened with Luciel.”
