    Adimasta looked at his face again in the mirror. Using Clarissa's selected eyeglass frames, it was right, he looked cooler, trendy, and up to date. If it could make Clarissa closer to him, Adimasta would follow what Clarissa wanted. "Wow, I'm cute, right?" Adimasta smiled broadly. "Just realized? Where have you been all this time?" said Clarissa. The girl took out a wallet, took a card. "Hey, I pay for it. Clarissa ..." Adimasta quickly also took out his wallet from his pants pocket. "No. Stop it. Do you listen?" Clarissa looked at Adimasta, glaring slightly. "But ... Clay, it is my glasses ..." "Do you want me to tease again?" Clarissa's tone grew sharper. "Well, whatever …" Adimasta scratched his head. The optical waiter was smiling, holding back the laughter that wanted to explode at the behavior of the two lovebirds in front of him.

    Twenty minutes. It wasn’t so long. Adimasta hurriedly left the house and looked for food for Clarissa. What would she like for breakfast in the morning? Adimasta thought. He tried to call but no answer. What if she doesn't like the food Adimasta would bring for her? In this situation, Adimasta didn't want things to get worse with the girl. "Ah, never mind. If she's getting angry, whatever." Adimasta finally bought a Javanese Salad on the side of the road which he knew was already opened. It was one of the special food sellers that Adimasta and his family had like to buy for several years. It should be good for Clarissa too. The order was ready, Adimasta got back on the slide, and as soon as twenty minutes have passed. Adimasta parked the motorbike. Appropriate! Twenty minutes to two seconds.

    Adimasta saw more clearly on the post of one of his college friends. It was in a cafe not far from Clarissa's boarding house.

From the glasses they lifted, Adimasta knew what they were doing there. "Oh my God, Clarissa ..." Adimasta slapped his forehead. So, Clarissa was going to the cafe to meet up with friends and get the party together? It might be because she was upset that why she went there. Adimasta looked again at another photo. One of the boys hugged Clarissa. And it was not their classmate. Adimasta did not know the boy. Adimasta felt so upset. Why was Clarissa getting weirder? Adimasta exhaled heavily. "Clay... what are you doing to your life? Are you still there or have you gone home?" Adimasta spoke to himself. Adimasta tried to call Clarissa. Sever

    "Just a drink? Don't you wanna eat? Can I get it?" Adimasta slapped Clarissa's arm."No, I have no taste." Clarissa answered curtly, coldly. She pulled away from Adimasta."Clay, we need to talk. Please, give me some time. Maybe it's not the right time, but now we can sit down together." Adimasta looked at Clarissa."There's nothing to say. At least you just wanna defend yourself. It's a cliché." Clarissa raised her glass and took a sip of the orange syrup."Okay, it's up to you whether you want to believe it or not, I'll just tell you.
