"Hey," said Andrew when Riko came over to his desk.
"Yo," said Riko stretching out his hand, inviting Andrew to do a high five. Before finally sitting in front of Andrew.
"Are you alone? Where's Clara?" asked Andrew who only saw Riko alone.
"In a little more she said she will follow. That kid still wants to play in the water," said Riko.
The atmosphere suddenly fell silent again.
"Looks like it didn't work, huh? Or you do not ask again?" asked Riko suddenly.
Andrew is close to Riko and Dion, but because Dion seems to be interested in Carolina too. He never talked about it. But one day when he and Riko were hanging out and drinking because Dion couldn't come. He accidentally talked about it with Riko.
"I did. But it didn't work. Hah! Never mind! Later tonight I can drink to till I pass out!" said Andrew who looked better.
The important thing is he has already expressed his feelings! No more regrets!
"Yes, cheer up! You still have us! Maybe Carol has a reason. You know, she is very mysterious," said Riko trying to cheer him up. Andrew only smiled when hearing it.
"How about you? I'm paying attention you seem to be closer to Clara," Andrew asked back. Riko had never told him that there was something he with Clara, and Andrew suddenly wondered what really happened to the two of them.
"Like usual! She's still busy with her plastics, while I'm busy with my own world," said Riko.
Andrew only nodded when he heard that. Throughout his acquaintance with Riko, the man was always honest with what he said and never tried to be shy about his feelings.
So Andrew is sure that Riko really doesn't have feelings for Clara, or maybe he hasn't realized it yet.
"Then I'll go back to the hotel first!" said Andrew after finishing the food and drink he ordered then headed to call the waiter to pay for the food.
Riko who was playing with his cell phone nodded. He also decided to order a drink when the waiter called by Andrew arrived.
Before parting with Clara, he had already told the woman that he would be waiting for her here. If he just sat there without ordering anything, it is embarrassing!

"Ahh, finally arrived," thought Carolina who threw herself on the hotel bed.
Today was long for her, starting from Andrew's confession and the treatment of the two men who catcalled her. But she had no regrets at all, if she just stayed at the boarding house, maybe she wouldn't have had an experience like this.
Knock… Knock…
Just as Carolina was about to close her eyes, there was a knock from the hotel room door.
She opened it and found Vera standing at the door.
Carolina said nothing. She immediately goes back to the bedroom and fell back into the hotel bed.
"Where is everyone?" Vera asked, seeing that only Carolina was in the room.
"Dion is still not back, the others are still on the beach," replied Carolina then took out her cell phone to read the manga as usual.
"Ohh, how come you are here? Looks like new clothes, huh?" Vera asked after noticing Carolina's appearance.
"I went back first because I wanted to go to the toilet," said Carolina without looking at Vera.
Isnt she not like me? Why is she asking so many questions now? thought Carolina.
"Ohh." said Vera who then lay down on the hotel bed. Due to the size of the bed, there is a lot of distance between Vera and Carolina.
Vera tried to find a position to sleep, but it seemed like something was bothering her so she couldn't sleep at all.
"Carol," called Vera.
"Hm," replied Carolina who was still busy with her cellphone.
"I want to ask you something, just now ..."
Knock ... Knock …
Before Vera finished her sentence, a knock was heard from outside the room.
Carolina and Vera exchanged glances before finally Vera decided to open the room.
"Hey On," said Vera when she saw Dion who was at the door.
"Are you alone? Where is the others?" asked Dion who went straight to the sofa to lay down.
"I think they went to the beach, it's just me and Carol," said Vera, who went straight back to bed.
The atmosphere of the room returned to silence before finally Dion came to approach them.
"Aren't you going to the beach?" asked Dion.
Seeing Dion who came to approach the bed, Vera immediately shifted toward Carolina.
"Why Ve? I didn't bite, just relax," said Dion when he saw Vera who quickly stay away from him.
"N-No, really. It's too bad if you just stand there. Come sit down," said Vera patting the edge of the bed.
Carolina who observed the incident also felt a strange thing, especially since Vera did not continue their conversation before Dion approached.
"I went to the beach, I just came back," said Carolina, deciding to return the topic of conversation that was asked by Dion.
About Vera? Just let it be. Besides, Vera didn't like her from the start, thought Carolina, who didn't want to think any further. After all, it's none of her business.
"How about you, Ve?" asked Dion who was now sitting on the edge of the bed.
"Hah? Oh, I might go tomorrow. Besides, the sun will soon be sinking," said Vera without looking at Dion and busy with her cell phone.

"Ndrew, where will we party at which club?" shouted Clara from the room. Currently, the six of them are already in the hotel room. Since Vera and Carolina had occupied the bed from the start, it was occupied by the women.
Meanwhile, the men just sat and lay down on the chairs in the living room.
"I think the club is in this hotel. I already ordered it," replied Andrew.
"Then you men get ready first! If you guys are ready, you can go to the club first," Vera replied.
"Why don't you go first? I'm still lazy," replied Riko.
"Of course we can't! It's only one room! If we change clothes here, then you guys will peek again! What's more, you long-hair!" said Clara who agreed with Vera's words.
"What is the guarantee that you won't be peeking at us?" asked Riko back.
"God forbid! Like there is something to peek at! Maybe if the one who changes in the next room is Ethan oppa, then I'll go peek," Clara said shamelessly.
If your bias is change his clothes and you have a chance to see his abs, who will not take advantage of that opportunity!
"You guys always fight, you might be a couple, you know! Well, let me get ready first!" said Dion who then stood up and headed for the bathroom.
When she saw Dion had entered the bathroom, Vera got up and walked towards the living room.
"Ndre," called Vera. She leaned against the wall that became the divider between the living room and the bed.
"Yes, Ve?" asked Andrew without looking as he was rummaging through the suitcase for his clothes.
"It's really fast, Dion," suddenly Clara's voice was heard.
"I haven't showered yet, I want to take my clothes first, just change in the bathroom. If I go out just use a towel then you will have a crush on me," said Dion winking.
Seeing Dion, Vera immediately climbed back into bed.
Vera then tried to close her eyes, but she couldn't sleep. She tried to sleep on her left side, on her right side, but still couldn't.
"Why Ve? Since earlier, how come you've been so nervous," asked Clara because Vera had been making a noise on the bed.
"It's okay, by the way, do you bring your make up, don't you?" asked Vera, changing the subject.
"Of course! Don't need to ask!" said Clara excitedly.
Vera just smiled then looked at Carolina.
Feeling she was being stared at, Carolina looked away from her cellphone and stared at Vera.
"What is wrong with her?" thought Carolina who saw Vera's troubled face, but she decided to ignore Vera again.
Vera then took a deep breath and exhaled.
"What should I do?" she thought.
