"Are you serious there's a guy like that? Vio, you know, we're not in the world of stories anymore. This is the real world, wake up, girl!"
"What's the use of me lying? You don't know, we're in the different schools too. Besides, your school environment and your brain are filled with jokes without understanding the process of people being attracted to you. You're just acting because you're just thouced, you weakling." Violin gave a sarcasm which at the same time satirized Anna, her best friend. They could be considered siblings, always sticky all the time, and Anna, who was never absent every day, came to Violin's house. The reason is, indeed they have a complex, and their friendship has been going on since they were children, separated by about two years because Violin had to join her parents because of business interests. If asked whether she is tired or not, Violet will honestly say that she is tired, she has moved schools six times since she entered elementary school.
"You really suck at being talked to. You'd better go there, go away Anna." Violin replied looking annoyed with a fake expression on her face.
"Should you pretend to be Elsa? I don't want to, I want to invite you to street food anyway, there's a bazaar that's open tonight. Anyway, I want to try all the food there." she exclaimed. When it comes to food, of course Anna will be the winner. Maybe that's why his body is a little fatter than the violin, but it's not yet included in the fat criteria.
"I don't want to, I'm lazy. Just go there, invite your boyfriend." Turning her body while brushing her long hair past her shoulders. Staring at her reflection in the mirror while imagining Leo's face who might be looking at her face like now.
"Really I'm going to invite my boyfriend. And you have to come so that my mother will allow me to go out." There was no answer, making her furious and approaching Violin who was staring intently at herself in the reflection of the mirror. Anna raised an eyebrow, thinking that her friend was not feeling well.
"Heh, what's wrong with you? Be careful you get stuck!" She shouted, making Violin's reverie suddenly shattered. She sighed in annoyance before turning around and throwing an annoyed look at Anna.
"What the heck, just bother me. When you left, you say you want to street food with the guy. I don't want to go out, I'd better stay at home chasing my favorite artist." Basically, Violin is more difficult to socialize than Anna. However, it could be said that Leo was lucky, because Violin was willing to experience embarrassment in order to know the man more deeply. Even though Leo really didn't expect it at all. The man prefers solitude than to be presented with a crowd.
"I'm not making offers anymore, so whether you want it or not, you have to come. If you don't want to, it's easy, I can complain to your father and your mother about the secret you're hiding." Lifting a corner of her lips, forming a slanted curve there.
"You're setting me up? Aish, that's fine. But just promise a moment okay?" Lifting her pinky finger, thrust it right in front of Anna's face, making the girl unite it quickly there. Even though she didn't make any promises, because the girl often Violin and doesn't care, the most important thing is that she can be satisfied.
"Okay, hurry up. I'll be back in ten minutes, and watch out if you're not finished yet." Condemned Anna. Her limbs slowly stepped away from there, not forgetting a small hum accompanied by her signature whistle when she was excited.
"Why that person have to be my neighbours?!"

"This is what you says is a fun place? Where does it come from? It's actually going to be even more boring for me if there are lots of people like this." As if irritated by Violin's words, Anna rolled her eyes before forcibly pulling Violin's hand to get out of the car.
"I don't want to out. You just go there, I'll just wait for you here. Besides, you said that your boyfriend will come." Trying to hold her body weight from Anna's increasingly strong pull. However, because of her laziness to make small movements, Anna can produce the violin quickly, followed by a hard slap on her head.
"Sick asshole." Annoyed Anna while stroking the front of her head.
"Anyways, I already said I don't want to, I'm still being forced." Ignoring a few annoyed sentences from Violin, Anna quickly took the body away from the parking area, making Violin just obey. Don't want to waste energy just to serve a stubborn human figure.

A pair of hazelnuts looked at the pincers with a fixed gaze. He tucked his clenched hands into his front hoodie pocket. His brain and mind turned back to the past, imagining how harmonious a warm family was when he was little.
"Papa, Leo wants the doll. You play with the claw machine, will you?" His two little hands were busy tugging at the jacket that protected his father's body, showing a wide smile with a face full of joy.
At that time, he was still in the second grade of elementary school, where he was still in the introduction stage and getting used to the environment. Leo, who is still seven years old, is always proud of the achievements his father can achieve. Has big aspirations that one day he wants to be like his father.
His tall body slowly lowered his head, crouched down and aligned his height with his only child. "Do you really want Leo? Papa can try that, please wait."
A sweet smile was engraved on his lips, with his round eyes looking at his father who seemed to be inserting coins into the tongs. He started slowly for a few times, but he managed to get none of it from inside the transparent box.
"Papa, that's it, there's no need to continue. It's hard for sure, next time you can try again." Giving a few sentences to stop his father's actions, with a wry smile that made his father feel worried. Then, giving one last reassurance, the father tried again, dropping the last coin, making Leo rest his hand on his chin. After all, he didn't want to hope for more.
"Yeaayy! Leo, papa did it!" His father exclaimed, right when he said that, Leo's eyes successfully rounded, covering his mouth with his small hand, giving a handclap indicating he was very happy and proud of his father.
His face got happier, right after the small dark yellow doll was in his hands. "Papa is great, thank you papa!" Moving to collide his body with his father's, the tall man hugged him warmly.
"Okay, let's go home, okay? Mama must have looked for it." Offer the father who got a small nod from Leo.
His thoughts were suddenly broken, the noise of the people around him made the atmosphere feel different. Then, by putting the hood back on his hoodie, Leo intends to take a step.
"You don't have to go all the way there! Anna! You're so annoying!" Just as she flung Anna's hand from her arm, her elbow accidentally bumped into something behind her. Making her body suddenly stiffen, swallowing her saliva firmly while cursing harshly in her heart.
