Nick thought. Who else?
Let's not be the same person, of course Nick does not want to deal with people who have a grudge because of unclear jealousy like Freddo.
Nick ignored the car that stopped in front of him earlier, took back the road trying not to care about anyone and any business so as to block the steps of Nick who intends to cross the road.
"Summer...,"
Nick stops his steps when he hears a woman calling his name from behind.
"Why force me to go home?" he walked over to Nick's back.
Nick looked over, Diamond? Mumbled.
"I'm sorry, I have to go home" Nick replied as he ignored his face, not wanting to interact too long with the woman named Diamond.
"I'm inter-"
"No need!" nick's reply was quick as he shook his head in rejecting Diamond's offer. Nick certainly doesn't want anything to happen to him again.
"Snick!"
"Not necessary"
"I'll stay here if you don't want me to drive home!" threatening Diamond makes Nick step back paused.
***
"thank you. You can come back!" nick said as soon as they arrived in front of Manfreed's house.
"Wait!" The diamond pauses Nick who tries to open the car door.
It seemed Diamond did not want to waste the opportunity for Nick to be willing to accept help when an idea suddenly popped up in his brain.
"You, I'm hire. Think of this as the first salary" said Berlian while holding out a chocolate ampoule and business card.
While Nick doesn't believe. Hire, what does that mean?
"You're good at driving, and I need that. Call, I'm if you need anything" Diamond said suddenly. Instead, the insistent Nick did not receive the brown envelope that the Diamond gave him for free.
Nick nodded small, then watched the departure of Diamond who actually made himself immediately stricken with anxiety suddenly due to his presence.
"Sir, what's wrong with your face? What's going on?" grachia said he welcomed Nick with questions that made Manfreed and Grachia worried.
Nick reviews the smile, hinting that Grachia doesn't have to worry about herself like this.
Stevie's? Nick muttered inwardly at the sight of a woman sitting in the living room.
"Why is he here?" ask Nick slowly to Grachia.
"Guests to, Sir. He's been waiting since last afternoon, he said there was something to say. You met Stevy waiting in front of your house, when you asked, Stevy is waiting for Mr. Nick there," Grachia replied.
"Stev-g"
"Nick-" Stevy quickly sees Nick's scarred presence on his face.
"You, why else?" coined.
Nick shook his head, hinting that he didn't have to worry about him either.
"Freddo again?"
Nick is back.
"What's the night here?" ask Nick.
Stevy held out a white envelope. Envelopes that Nick has often received from his University.
"Next week, the thesis preparation exam. You have to finish all the arrears first. If not"
Nick paused Stevy's explanation. Pulling his hand away from Grachia. Nick understands what Stevy will explain about the contents of the envelope that Nick accidentally did not open in front of Grachia and Manfreed.
"Snick!" stevy denies trying to reject Nick's decision.
"I know, you're in a tough time right now, but you don't have to give up your profession. Open the envelope, tell me how many arrears, at least I can help you with the rest of my savings" Stevy said, trying to give Nick a solution.
But Nick shook his head, still kekeh with his stance that Nick had decided not to continue his study when Nick lost everything including the loss of Vivian. Nick is ruined, sure! Not just his hope, for what the future of Nick without Vivian, Nick thought resignedly.
"As for Nick, if you're not willing to accept my help for free. You can give it back when you have, please accept and think carefully about your decision," Stevy replied insistent.
"Stev, gohome. It's already night. I don't want to happen"
"Snick!"
Nick quiet. It turns out Stevy was waiting for Nick's unexpected, this woman is really stubborn. Especially Nick, for Stevy Nick must continue no matter what happens.
"I'll keep going. Now go!"
“Good!” stevy finally retorted while resigning from Manfreed's house.
“I look forward to seeing you back tomorrow on campus!” coined.
Nick quiet! Of course Nick has to think twice if he intends to return to campus, while on the other hand. Nick is also worried about the events that once made Freddo return will threaten his life.
Nick then threw away his gaze, letting Stevy really go was Nick's current wish. Nick does not want to make his day more chaotic because the presence of two women who had made his body really re-shaken because of the fear that hit him with all the obscurity that Nick himself certainly could not describe how did all this happen?
“Mr Nick!”
Nick slightly jumped to hear Grachia's words that suddenly appeared from behind. Nick turned to look at the middle-aged woman. Approaching Grachia who is sculpting while carrying a tray filled with food.
“Sit down, it looks like Mr. Nick hasn't eaten all day,” said Grachia finally.
“After dinner, I have something for Mr. Nick! In addition to Stevy last afternoon there was also a man who delivered files for Mr.”.
The file? What files again. Inner Nick is hard on the heart.
This was a real surprise for Nick. After Diamond and Stevy, there is now someone who knows the whereabouts of Nick who lives with the small Manfreed family. Then who else after this will come to give a surprise for him. Carlos's? Or who else? Even Nick won't care anymore. Really after the arrival of Carlos who made Nick's life destroyed many times, and the threat after threat from Freddo really makes Nick feel like he was crazy.
“There are some files for Mr. Nick I received this afternoon,” said Grachia again.
“Can I see that file, Mom!” answer Nick curiously.
Grachia's hand thrust two sheets of files that are almost similar to the file Stevy brought earlier.
For the first time Nick got a letter from Dr. Frengky Chu related to the referral letter that Nick had to give the results. Nick could hardly think anymore. Can all this be stopped. Nick is so sick!
Another file? Nick thought hard.
[OLD DOES NOT MEET! I'M STILL WAITING FOR YOUR FIRST CHALLENGE. LET'S FIGHT!]
Damnit damnit! Nick said after opening the last file without that name. Who's sender?
Nick never thought the last letter when he read it was a challenge from someone he didn't know who wrote it. This guy really made Nick shiver! Why does everyone Nick avoid know that Nick lives with Grachia and Manfreed's house?
"What happened, sir?" grachia said, as she looked at the face of despair.
Nick just shook his head to answer Grachia's question.
"Mom! If anyone is looking for me again, please don't say anything. Just tell me you don't have a special relationship with me," Nick's reply left Grachia even more shocked.
"Don't think too much of me, I'm fine. I just feel pretty tired today, so take a break, don't hesitate to call me if you need anything" she added, leaving Grachia still shocked.
After some pretty exhausting days yesterday. Finally Nick decided to go to campus to take care of some final task completion files. Previously Nick came to Berlian to approve his offer to be his personal driver, at least if Diamond was sincerely helpful, he said, the salary from Diamond could be used for the final exam fee and also for Nick's promise that he is determined to help ease the burden of Grachia and Manfreed's life.
Nick walked past the front of his old house which has now turned into a magnificent building with a big brand plastered in front of him.
{OLLYXTON TIMELESS LAB}
Nick clenched his hand. The building will be his one day. Wait for the play date!
