"Look, everyone is watching us," Violet whispered as we entered the hall that had been transformed into a very grand party venue."More like looking at you, not at us!" I emphasize.Violet took a deep breath, then glanced at me sarcastically."And you say you are the most sensitive person in the world? Nice!" she quipped.I chuckled softly at the girl's words. Yeah, more like laughing at myself. I think I'm exaggerating by saying that I'm the most sensitive person in the world.We also approached some of our acquaintances. They look beautiful in beautiful dresses.Instantly, a heavy sigh left my mouth. I really feel it; we've entered the world of lectures now. We're not teenagers anymore."Hey, it's Kenan," Violet whispered to me.I followed Violet's line of sight and saw Kenan walking hand in hand with a girl close to him."You know who was with him?" Violet asked in a half-whisper."Who?" I asked quickly."Her name is Veronica, and her nickname is Vera! She is a singer on the rise,"
"So, you found someone to kiss?" Violet glanced at me.We are now in another corner of the hall. The party was still going on, but we chose to sit together, accompanied by soda and some snacks.From this place, we could see clearly in the hall."Hmm," I said slowly."What does hum mean? Wait, you mean already?" Violet screamed, glaring in disbelief.I took a deep breath, seeing her reaction. Well, it's not a big deal; why was she so shocked?"Good job, girl! Who is that unlucky guy? Say his name!" Violet exclaimed enthusiastically.I took a deep breath. For some reason, being with Violet makes me sigh a lot. She is much noisier than Clarisa."Do I know him?"Before I could answer her previous question, Violet had already asked again."Hmm, I don't know. I don't know who you know," I answered quickly."I know a lot of guys here, so... who is he?" she asked again."Adipati," I said slowly.Violet was silent, her brow furrowed, and her arms folded across her chest. She looked like she wa
Violet gaped in disbelief when Adipati and I got into her car.Previously, Violet and I had made an appointment to go to the salon together, so Violet waited for me in her car after college.And because of the bet we made, I dragged Adipati to see Violet so he could explain.I didn't want to go on a blind date, so I had to.Violet didn't say anything and just gaped at Adipati, who was sitting at the back, through the mirror."Hi!" said Adipati casually.Violet simply raised her hand and waved in greeting to Adipati. The girl then glanced at me, who sat beside her."I brought him here to prove our bet!" I said it quickly.Violet covered her mouth in disbelief."Okay," Violet finally said.I nodded slowly."So... are you gay or straight?" Violet asked matter-of-factly.Adipati chuckled softly at Violet's question."I'm straight!" he exclaimed casually."So... the kiss mark on Kei's neck—is it true that you made it?" Violet asked enthusiastically.Damn it! She started again. Isn't it eno
Oh, My God!" shouted someone from the direction of my room.I rushed to turn off the water faucet, put on a towel, and got out of the bathroom.Bad habit; I should have locked my room while taking a shower.I rushed out and winced, confused, to see Violet, who was already sitting pretty on my bed with the photo albums wide open in her lap."What is this?" Violet squealed with widened eyes. The girl turned to me with her mouth agape.Not surprisingly. What she opened was a photo album containing dozens or even hundreds of photos of me and Kenan.When we're together, I really like to take our photos or even candid photos of Kenan. And because my cellphone at that time had very little memory, I chose to print it and save it."It's rude to touch other people's things without permission!" I snapped."What's this? Did you take a picture with Kenan? Hey! You guys are from the same high school?" Violet screamed, staring in disbelief at the photo below."As you can see!" I said lazy.I rushed
"You want to talk to me? Why?" I asked while closing the book I was reading.A rising star, coming to the library just to talk to me? What's this?"Can we just talk outside? Everyone's paying attention," Veronica said in a half-whisper.Damn, her voice was so melodious that even talking sounded so soft and pleasing to the ear.I didn't say anything and just walked ahead of her out of the library.Well, I tried my best to avoid her and Kenan, but she approached me instead. Doesn't this suck?"So, what did you want to talk about?" I asked as soon as she stood beside me."I've seen you watching us several times; I mean, me and Kenan, so may I know why?" asked the girl, confused.Ah, I got caught again. Why is it so hard to keep a secret from everyone?"Because you're an artist! It's fun to see an artist's face in person!" My answer is the origin.Veronica frowned in confusion. She then put her hands on her hips and looked at me with narrowed eyes."Are you sure that's the reason?" Veroni
"What is this?"I gawked in disbelief at the sight of bikinis lying on my bed. Ah, I forgot to change my home password. This girl always comes whenever she wants, without permission."Choose which one you like!" Violet exclaimed, smiling casually.I put my bag on the table, then approached the bed to see the bikinis one by one."Why should I choose one?" I glanced at Violet with a confused frown."Because we have a party to attend!" Violet said as she sat down on the little couch that Dad had just bought to replace my broken lounge chair."Attending a party in a bikini?" I screamed in disbelief.Violet just nodded casually; she then took my cell phone and showed me an invitation banner that was in her chat."Wait a minute! You're asking me for a pool party? Violet, didn't I tell you before that I don't like crowds? Especially a party in a bikini!"Hearing my panic, Violet immediately stood up. She approached me, then put her hands on her hips in front of me."It's okay if you don't wa
I can't stop munching. For some reason, my mouth feels a bit bitter now. I don't know what kind of alcohol I drank earlier; why can my tongue be this bitter?I checked my phone to see some of the chats that just came in. Some were from Calvin, Vivian, and other numbers I didn't recognize. How am I going to read online novels if I have a headache just looking at the cell phone screen?"You're here?"I turned to the voice that suddenly sounded near me. Kenan's handsome face was visible in front of me. He stood proudly with his hands in his pockets."Skip! Do not mind me! Go, pretend you didn't see me!" I said it softly.Kenan frowned, confused. He then sat beside me while looking at me with his eagle eyes, which I really like."What are you doing here? You can't possibly follow me, right?" He asked with a frown.Hearing his question made me giggle. Isn't that cute? Why would I want to do that? Why do I want to follow him?I can't answer the question because it stinks. Kenan knows me muc
"Come on, I hate hospitals!" I screamed as Dad stuffed some of my clothes into my bag, just in case I had to be hospitalized."Shut up and just obey, okay!" Violet ordered while helping me sit up.Sometimes I think that Violet is better suited to be my Dad's daughter than me. Their nature is the same. And it is very different from me."I just have a fever; can't I just take some pharmacy medicine and just rest at home?" I whined."The problem is, you have a fever after drinking alcohol; I'm afraid there's something else, so, just to be sure, let's go to the hospital," Dad said quickly."I agree!" supports Violet.I shook my head quickly, then threw all the pillows on the bed to the floor."Can you please comply with my request just this once?" I half-screamed."Let me rest at home; I will take medicine regularly, eat regularly, and rest well. If my condition doesn't improve within a few days, I will comply with your request to go to the hospital! After all, it would be ridiculous if I
