Max laughed at the absurd words from Leah's lips. Whatever the girl did was cute for him.
He tried stopping his laughter. Max chuckled into his stomach. Luckily he had put the hot food on the table first.
"Hahaha .. no, no. That's not what I meant!" Leah frowned.
She was confused as, why Max giggled, she just argued accorded what Max said.
"Then, why are you here?" asked Leah with curiosity.
Saw Leah's serious face, Max stopped his laughter as best he could, she was so innocent! Inner Max couldn't believe Leah's cute face.
"I mean, isn't there a good thing in every disaster, when you get stuck it's a bad thing. But. I'm here, isn't that a good thing?" Leah rolled her eyes.
What meaning all that Max said just now.
"Bellen asked me to take care of the shop, he thought there was a party at the cafe tonight. But in fact, there's nothing here," Max shrugged and turned his head, stared at the empty storeroom. "Except you!" he continued looked on Leah who let out a deep sigh.
"Yes, thank goodness Bellen asked you. It would be sad if was the girl he trusted!" Annoyed Leah caught her breath. The mention of the girls made her suddenly emotional.
"So girls?" Leah nodded quickly in response to Max's question.
Max looked thoughtful as he lifted the cup noodles towards Leah, landed them on the table.
Max came back and grabbed two hot drinks.
"Ah, I don't know how much more to thank you," Leah said softly.
Max shook his head as if in answer, it was all okay.
Leah started to bribe her noodles. Meanwhile, Max leaned his back against the wall. Leah devoured fast as if she forgot there was a handsome young man watched her right now.
She likes instant noodles too much, which made Max's lips smiled happily.
After half of her food, Leah noticed Max's presence, it was too late. She didn't even offer food.
"Mmm .." Leah tried finding the topic of conversation by holding her hands, suddenly her hands were sweating, Max made her nervous. She felt a little awkward with Max's gaze glaring at her.
They are alone here.
"Um, how about the answer to the quiz earlier?" Finally, there was something naturally topic between them.
"Oh, yes," Max said remembering his question before. The man got up from his back, he opened his arms.
Max walked over toward Leah, who was only 1 meter and a half away from him. He leaned his back hips on the side of the counter, where Leah could find her stern and mesmerizing side face.
The girl forgot her mouthful. She grabbed the hot coffee and quickly let go of the cup noodles.
Leah waved her hand because the coffee temperature was still too high. Max chuckled, funny with Leah's behavior. The face of the girl in front of him flushed red.
"So what letters are missing?" Leah asked.
She left for a moment her drink.
Max nodded slightly, he turned around, put his hands on the table, and squatted a little. He brought his head close to Leah's face.
The girl immediately pulled her head back, gave a little distance, weren't their heads too close right now.
"What's missing is the letter U (you) because she's stuck in there!" Max pointed to the bathroom with his head.
Deg! Deg! Deg!
Leah was silent for a moment tried to digest Max's words.
Triiingg !!
Max's cell phone rings. The man pulls from his pocket, staring at the screen that shows Pauline's name contacts. Max immediately picked up without stalling.
Max: hello mam--
Pauline: where are you? Why aren't you home yet? I'm home and you're not here!
Max: I have ...
Pauline: you won't disappoint me right?
Max: I'm on campus mam, have things to -
Pauline: are you on campus? Alright then. Be well there, and immediately finish your business. Mama will continue work.
Max: I have ...
Pauline: okay honey, see you at home.
Leah widened her eyes, her brain just getting back worked. The girl held up her index finger with a happy face.
"Aaa ----" Max covered Leah's mouth with his right palm.
Made Leah's eyes around, startled.
She tried to be calm down even though Max's presence disturbed her calm. She's trying to be cool even though Max is so close to her, now ... Max was destroying everything.
The palm of this hand, a serious face with a call on a cell phone. The scent of his perfume ... all, all of it made Leah's chest felt tight.
Pauline: honey?
Max: okay mam, see you at home.
Pauline: fine honey, mama misses you
Max: me too...
Max let out a sigh of relief. He pressed the call ended.
Leah had been trying to keep quiet with Max's palms on her lips all along.
Max is still serious about his cell phone, forgetting where he put his hand.
Leah stomped Max's foot with a little force.
"Oops .." Max pulled a smile.
He took a hand and smiled a little. Leah snorted in annoyance with a part of her face flushed. Max where you put your hand on a girl's face!
"You !! Tsk .." Leah annoyed pretending to be sulk.
She seemed ready to grabbing Max's face with her hands, which made Max laughing in funny. Her behavior cheered Max.
"You make me can't breathe you know!" Leah hissed averted her face, her lips purring cutely.
Max felt wanna pinching those pink lips.
LIIP !!
Dark!
"Aaaakkkhhh !!!" Leah screamed and grabbed Max's waist.
Instantly the room losing light. Powered off! The girl suddenly hugged Max's back waist, until her head nudged something.
Ups...
Max bit his lip, his eyes squinted, a little pain to the gut, made his hands tremble, his face flushed. He was speechless, silent for a while with Leah's body pressed down on his waist.
"Max .." Leah whispered in a scared voice.
The girl tightened her grip, she buried her head between Max's tight thighs.
Leah! where did you put your head, Max could only lift his head, biting his lip, grimaced. It hurts quite a bit and yes .. it feels weird. Luckily this room is dark!
Max patted his forehead. With a facial expression that he couldn't show anyone.

The two youths sneaked up with alert eyes. They opened an electrical installation space at the back of the campus building, a room with steel doors. The two of them struggled enough until the door finally opened. And there's a lot of foreign objects in there.
"What are we going to do here?"
"Sssrtt .. lower your voice, this is the most important thing for our show!" The two of them sounded conferring with wary faces.
"You know, art kids will put on shows and they spend time in the practice room. The task won't be finished if the power turning out!"
"You're crazy, huh! How can we sabotage electricity!" Her friend shook their hands, they had contrasting facial expressions.
"You want to see your ex tell me!" He nodded resignedly at his partner's words.
"Yes, but--" he was still doubtful about their actions in this space, he was also confused by the many levers up ahead. "Which one are we going to take down?" The two of them stared at each other for a moment.
"Don't ask me, I'm a computer engineering kid, not electrical!" Annoyed his partner.
"We will go in one direction!" Annoyed his friend mentor's rude head.
"Hahaha, then just turning off everything!" The suggestion of the fellow jerk who came up with a ridiculous idea tonight.
"You know, after this, our problems will only get worse!"
"Don't let anyone find out, then there won't be a problem .." Without warning, the colleague pulled the biggest lever. Makes all lighting stop at once. Lights off!
-------
Return to Belen's mini-market.
"Mmh, Leah can you raise your head?" Asked Max, holding back the blush on his face. A burning hot face.
Leah shook her head. She looks like a strong and brave woman who was afraid of the dark.
"You know, I was locked up for a long time in the bathroom and now it's like this again! I'm scared!" So she was traumatized? Max tried to raise a hand, he hesitantly touched Leah's head.
The beating of his heart makes the breath rise and fall. Max forced himself to stroke Leah's hair even though he couldn't help himself.
Max gently stroked her head, maybe it could calm the girl who clung to his body a little.
"Em, calm down. I, I'm here!" Max stammering, he tried to calm his heartbeat.
He was not used to women. Moreover, this was Leah, the girl who had been disturbing his imagination for the past few days.
He still hasn't forgotten how they kissed at the bar back then.
Leah shook her head again, which was dangerous for Max.
The girl kept her head between Max's groin. How can she did it!
"Leah, here I am. So don't panic," he said, don't panic with a very panicked expression on his face.
Max tries to restrain himself, but this situation? because they were both in the darkroom and what had Leah done anyway!
Max wanted to argue and screaming but it was impossible.
Leah felt something growing and touching her forehead. She lifted her head slightly, her eyes rounded as she realized where she had to put her face earlier. The girl lifted her head, acting awkwardly.
"Am, sorry .." she said awkwardly and immediately closed her eyes.
Max nodded slightly even though Leah couldn't see the nod.
The two of them looked awkward. It can't go on like this!
Max crouched down, in front of Leah, he brought his head closer to Leah's face who was still sat on the chair with her face covered. He stared deep into the face of the girl before him at this moment.
"You don't need to be afraid, Leah, here I am," Max repeated.
He wanted Leah to open her eyes, the girl still looked scared and worried.
"Leah .." called Max with a soft voice.
