Max already sat relaxed in a cafe chair with a cup of warm chocolate and a croissant, he enjoyed the morning air and friendly greetings from his college friends. Some people also waved and sat close to him, even though he seemed comfortable sat alone.
"Wow, wow! Who's here! Maximilian Eduardo, good morning my friend! Glad to see your bright face this morning!" A familiar blow at Max's shoulder made him turned his head.
Leon's happy face than he left his colleagues when he saw Max's presence, he pulled a bench from another table, force sitting next to Max.
Even though Max deliberately chose a single table.
"How?" Leon lowered his body, leaned towards Max in a whispered voice and seductive flirtatious eyes.
Max responded normally. His eyes stayed still stared straight ahead, towards the supermarket where Leah worked.
He didn't find Leah there, only a middle-aged man with a shaved head at the top who had been busy served customers since morning.
"We didn't meet at the nightclub yesterday but I saw your name on the guest list, you came with a girl! You're crazy! You already have a girlfriend secretly, how can you keep it a secret from me! You surprised me, my friend!" Leon teased while nudging Max in the stomach.
Max arched his eyebrows, what's Leon talking about? He didn't understand, but it's up to Leon. He was still looked for the figure of a girl who still didn't appear in the minimarket down there.
"What are you looking at! Seriously. I'm asking you once again. Did you come with a girl last night? Why didn't you introduce her to me! Is She beautiful?" Leon is still teasing and curious.
Max shook his head. "There's no girl. Where do you get fake news from!" Reply to Max reluctantly.
"Maxi .. deliberately playing hide and seek. Leon likes that! I can know a lot of things. Even I know the desire of a vampire or an Alfa werewolf!"
Leon's words sounded weird. Maxi doesn't understand even more.
Saw Max's confused face, Leon showed off the book in his hand.
The magic of the vampire vs werewolf world!
"Haha!" Max laughed, funny with the title of the book in Leon's hand.
"Why are you laughing. This is a serious book, horror wrapped in action! Not the comedy genre!" Leon grumbled that he didn't like Max's reaction to his favorite book.
"Geez Leon, how old are you! Are you still want to be lied to by legends? It's just a myth! There is still human stealth. I was confused, stealth, demons, aliens, zombies, who were the first to make their names. Why? not given a cute and adorable name, for example, mentioning stealth with Minca, a zombie with Dolly .. "
" Hush! " Leon waved his hand with pouting lips. "Crazy you, your words can hurt thousands of people in the world who love this fantasy series!" Leon warned his comrade.
Max laughed even louder.
"You're cute Leon, a person who feels slang and popular but his imagination is still like a nine-year-old child! I didn't expect .."
"Damn .." Leon hissed annoyed with Max's laughter.
"You don't know this novel is a best seller, awesome stories!"
Max shook his head quickly. "I don't want to know!"
"Whatever!" Leon stopped showing off the book in his hand.
Facing Max's scorn making Leon thirsty, he ordered fresh juice for this morning.
After ordering a drink he turned back to Max.
Before he arrived at Max's table, his eyes caught the look of his best friend's eyes at the supermarket in front of there. Max's eyes were serious like he was waiting for someone.
"BO!" Leon surprised Max.
He took back to his chair. Glancing at Max's annoyed face, he was surprised by what he had done earlier.
"What are you looking at. Seriously! Wasn't that last night you had a hot night?" Investigate Leon still wants to know about Max's business.
"You know that!" Replied Max faster.
"Hah, isn't right! So you slept with the girl that night!" Leon's voiced was half screaming and became the center of attention.
He realized with many people's gazed at him, he covered his mouth and wore a guilty smile. Max just shook his head.
"So you slept with her?" This time Leon whispered, and hoped only Max could hear his voice.
"It's not like that, but .. yes, not bad .."
Leon rounded his pupils. Not bad? He was even more curious. "Not bad?"
Max smiled with an embarrassed face, he remembered the cute face of Leah who was drunk, he could not lie about the feeling that made his chest keep pounding.
"Aish! Maximilian Eduardo is all grown up! So who is she?" Leon teased, gw looked too happy.
Max drew a broad smile on his lips, he glanced at the convenience store and pointed with a hooked brow.
Wait!
Leon's happy face turned flat.
"Wait, why do I feel bad, huh?" His voice became weak, not as cheerful as earlier. Leon hoped, his guess was wrong.
It can't be that girl right!
Max gave no more hints than the direction of the eyebrows and tail of his eyes. Leon should have understood that.
"Huh! You and the minimarket waiter!" Leon stood up from his chair, tapped the poke table in an upward voice.
He became the center of attention again, these two men were often the center of attention, but this time it seemed like Leon was made a hot gossip on campus.
"Lower your voice!" Asked Max with a flat face. He didn't care about the envious eyes of the girls around him. All he cares about is only for one girl.
Where is that girl? Why haven't you arrived yet? He couldn't wait for Leah to arrive at the supermarket there.
Leon sat back down and tried to compose himself.
"Seriously, don't make jokes. It's not funny!" Whispered Leon didn't want to believe with his thought.
From the start, Leon realized the direction of Max's eyes. His friend has always been stared at the minimarket since earlier. Even while they were chatting, Max was still staring that way. Leon is disappointed.
"Are you serious, Max? I still can't believe it."
Max nodded slightly. "What about Max's fan club, college girls are hot and sexy. How about the gift you got. Why are you making it difficult for me anyway? Better of you to be single than you with--" Leon did not continue his sentence.
"Max, did you hear me?" Leon grumbled to find that Max's face was glued to the minimarket.
He shuddered when Max smiled as he stared at the minimarket up ahead. What was he thinking, he rarely even smiled with a flushed face like now?
Leon took the croissant on Max's plate, and there was no problem. He chewed it in one bite. Max doesn't care.
Leon just shook his head.
"Tsk, you remind me of Piko!" Leon was not excited.
"Who is Piko?" Asked Max, not returning Leon's gaze.
"My dog. When he is lust, he will continue to stare and lick the female. He will forget about food, sleep time. He will be restless and constantly want to be close to the female. He will sniff, look for females, even though I only move the female in the yard of the house. . "
Max turned his head for a moment, gave Leon a sharp gaze, caused Leon to choke with the bread he stalks.
"Am I like that?" Asked Max in a flat tone.
Leon was dumbfounded. "What does he mean like that? Like Piko?"
The two of them were silent for a moment.
"Max, listen to me first!" Leon asked in a deep voice.
Max didn't answer, his eyes were only on Leah who had just arrived and entered the supermarket.
"Sit down first, and listen to me," Leon asked insisted.
Max was confused by Leon's deep voice, but he complied with his friend's request. He sat back down even though his eyes were still searching for Leah's figure in front.
"Don't be like this, Max. You have to be able to control yourself. You're not Pico! You've made a mistake in front of our friends, don't make for a second mistake!"
Max didn't understand Leon's words even more.
"You mean?" Asked Max, confused.
"If you go straight to her, I'm afraid it will troubling for the girl later," Leon replied.
Max is still confused but he tries to digest Leon's sentence.
"I've already said, she and you are different. Just like this novel I read. Vampires and werewolves, if they forced together, I'm afraid there will be problems!"
Max shook his head, he felt that Leon had gone crazy with the fantasy series in his head.
"I'm a human, not a vampire. Leah is also a human, not a werewolf, so where's the problem?" Max replied he did not care about the stares of his friends who were listening to their chat.
"Max, I gave a warning! It's up to you, read this book! Keep thinking about it one more time!" Leon replied in a flat voice.
He got up from the chair, tapped Max on the shoulder lightly, and left.
"What's wrong with him!" Max doesn't understand Leon's behavior even more.
He looked at the book Leon left on the table. Max sat back down, he tried to read the book.
He's not interested in mythical stories like this, but ...
Wait a minute,
****
Leah didn't focus on work. Her hand just pretended to be busy while her eyes had been stealing gazed across the front, through the glass wall.
Max's serious face reading a book with his palm landed on his neck as if showing off the luxury watch wrapped around his arm.
The girl continued to do the same job, unpacking and putting it back on the shelf, her eyes focused outwardly while her hands were like that.
She was trying to find out where the attention of the handsome man up there. To her, Max looked so serious today that he didn't even notice her presence.
She even memorized how many drinks Max's glass had decreased.
He didn't see me! He's too focused on his book? He couldn't see me standing from there, or he was playing with me on purpose! Geez.
Leah worried herself.
Meanwhile, I can't for a second forget the hot kiss last night. He made me have nightmares. I didn't sleep well, he and Alex were making my head heavy and about to break.
Inwardly Leah grumbled to herself, sending her footsteps tapping the minimarket floor.
The Minimart owner stares at the sullen faces of his lovely employees. He was surprised to see that the performance of the best waiter in his shop seemed to have declined today.
Leah is an exemplary waitress, waitress, and cashier, she can do many jobs at the same time.
"Hey, Leah! Why are you slamming things? It'll break the packaging!" The girl turned to her boss, who was busy calculating the buyers' payments at the checkout counter.
The girl shook her head guiltily. She shouldn't be spilling exasperation on the inanimate object in her grasp. What did she expect from Max?
