Rainbow Lake is one of the most beautiful places to visit at night, especially with the colorful lights that adorn every fence, seat, tree, and many more ornaments decorated with knick-knacks on the lake.
Adam took Riko for a leisurely walk on the shores of the Rainbow lake, then sat on one of the empty chairs.
"Huh that's great," Riko said while taking his cellphone "I have to take a moment for this place first"
"Just like the first time Rik"
"Yes, this is indeed my first time here" replied Riko "Even though it's famous, I've never visited it"
"Seriously?" Adam asked surprised
"Yes, it's true Adam."
The gust of wind that night made Riko, who was only wearing a crewneck, feel the cold night by holding his hands in front of his chest.
Adam who noticed this immediately took off the jacket he was wearing and immediately put it on Riko.
"Aww, thanks," said Riko "Is that okay?"
"It's okay, anyways, the clothes I'm wearing are also pretty thick," said Adam.
Adam could feel that he was starting to pay more attention to Riko, and Adam realized that.
Am I really in love with Riko? But if I fall in love with him, can I still be called Normal? Because I'm just confused about a feeling that can grow even though Riko and I are of the same gender, is that something Normal?
Adam was wrestling with his thoughts as he sat chatting with Riko.
And without the two of them realizing that it turned out that Tony's goal, who wanted to go out for a walk on his own, turned out to be the Rainbow Lake.
Tony noticed the presence of the two of them and sat in the chair they were currently sitting in, Tony was well aware of it.
Because Tony was sitting right behind them, although the distance was not too close, Tony could recognize them both.
"Oh, so the story is that Adam is dating Riko," Tony said while drinking the lychee-flavored juice that was packaged in a bottle. "That's why you don't want to admit that the two of them are indeed related!" Tony grumbled annoyed because he felt lied to by his friend.
Tony decided to just sit behind them without realizing it.
"Just wait Adam, I can also make a game that we will play later" Tony muttered with a sly smile seeing the two of them.
Time passed so quickly that it was finally ready for them to return home. There was a lot of chatter going on between Riko and Adam at that time.
"I'll take you home, okay?" Adam said to Riko
"Ahh no need Dam, I can go home alone anyway"
"But I still want to be alone with you" Adam whispered
"Hehe, later, when my house is close to yours," Riko replied, trying to make Adam not take him home.
Adam was adamant to keep taking Riko home.
Riko finally relented and allowed Adam to follow him. Even though he knew that he shouldn't go straight home, Riko had his way of upsetting Adam.
"I still want to go for a walk," said Riko while glancing at Adam which indicated that he had a plan that he had planned for Adam.
That night was different from other nights because the light of the night moon that shone so brightly as if there was an omen was happening.
The moon also appears to be larger and closer than usual, making anyone aware of it.
Tonight's air is also different from usual, because usually when it's getting late, the air will be colder, but tonight it's getting warmer and warmer that can be felt.
"Why is it suddenly a bit hot, even though it was really cold," Riko said as he took off the jacket that Adam had lent earlier.
"Hmmm, why is it a bit hot hehe, okay, let's just sit down" Invite Adam
While grabbing Riko's hand to sit with him.
Adam doesn't seem to want to lose Riko tonight, I don't know what's on his mind but Adam feels that something strange and something unusual will happen, but that's just his feeling.
Why is tonight different from other nights, I think tonight there is something strange. I can feel it but I'm confused to express the feelings I'm experiencing right now. But hopefully, this is nothing. I'm just afraid that if something happens...
The two of them sat back down on the chairs located on the edge of Rainbow Lake.
They still don't realize that Toni is still following him until this moment.
The air that was previously normal and a bit hot had now become quite hot, so anyone outside tonight must have felt the same way.
"Hmm, isn't that weird? Or is it going to rain next time?" Riko said as he fanned his hand around his neck so he could feel the breeze cradling him.
"You also feel it, yes, yes, I think something is wrong tonight," Adam said while drinking a bottle of water with one gulp and it ran out immediately.
Riko and Adam just sat on the edge of the Rainbow lake while busy fanning something to get a gust of wind to make them feel fresh from the heat that happened tonight.
"Hmmm, the weather is very bright but how come it's hot, even though it's the night!" Tony muttered as he stood up and was about to approach Riko and Adam.
Because he sensed that something was not right, Tony wanted to take the two of them home immediately.
"Shooting star"
All eyes immediately looked up at the moment someone shouted that there was a shooting star.
"Oh, it's a shooting star, isn't it?"
"Huh, it's time, okay?"
Riko and Adam were amazed at the beauty of the shooting star they saw now.
But the one who noticed something strange was Tony because he saw that the Star was getting closer and closer. But everyone just looked at that thing without deciding to leave the Lake area immediately.
Tony immediately ran towards Riko and Adam when he saw that the star had fallen in the Rainbow Lake area.
"Watch out!!! Riko, Adam!" Toni shouted from a distance while running towards the direction where the two of them were sitting.
But it feels like Tony's shouting is too late because something that is rapidly descending like a shooting star has landed in the middle of Rainbow Lake at this time.
"BAMMMM!!!"
A big bang occurred instantly, and the waves of the suppressed lake water immediately spilled ashore.
Riko and Adam who were closest to the scene couldn't go anywhere.
And Tony who was about to run towards them was swept away by the overflow water waves from the lake due to the pressure of the object.
"AAAAA!!!!"
