All I can hear was the crunchy sound from the Toasted bread.
I was sipping on the cup of coffee from their coffee shop, I'm talking about Astrid. This coffee was from the shop where she's working with.
The whole class was silent. They are busy while answering their exams. The girl beside me was focusing on her paper.
“Do you want me to tell the answer?” I whispered while looking at the professor.
She glared at me, but I chose to smile at her. I sip once again and gulped it gently.
It's marvelous taste, partner with the Toasted Bread. The crunchiness is perfect!
I turned my head in Yuan's direction. He was smirking while looking at the boy located at the side of the window.
I raised my eyebrow, he rolled his eyes when our eyes met. Seriously?
My face became blank once again and decided to ignore my brother. I can hear some noise and different voices.
I can't clearly distinguish their voice, because I didn't encounter some of the students talking with me.
However, I can recognize her voice. Voice? Even though she's not talking right now.
I mean, if you're talking to yourself, there's a voice you can hear, it's because the voice was from your mind.
I shrugged my shoulder. I got the pen and wrote something on the cup.
After a few moments, I put it in front of her. It's the answer to the equation with solutions. She stares at it for a while.
I giggle when I heard her cute voice, she was thankful and shy to say the word directly.
My phone vibrates all of a sudden. I turn on the phone and look for the notification. It's my father.
He says, “I need the ring, give it back to me and I will check for something.”
My heart began to race. I glance at Yuan's area and scanned his fingers. My eyes widen.
Damn, it's missing. I sent a message to Yuan. I was waiting for him to pick up his phone and read my messages.
He felt his phone vibrating. He looked at the phone and became serious for a moment.
He was tapping and typing on his phone. Hurry up, if he didn't give it back to me, then I'm dead.
I don't know, but I think my vision is deceiving me! Or He's smirking for real!
I'm going to throw all the figures and characters from his room. He loves it, and I know he couldn't live without it.
That's my plan if he's not going to cover up these things for me.
I'm glaring at him while waiting for his reply.
We heard the bell ring. I didn't wait for them to stand up. I stood up immediately and walk in his direction and wait until he lookup.
“Where's the ring?” I asked with an authoritative voice. The students were looking at me.
He laughed at me. He's making fun of me?
I glared at him and when I'm about to pull his collar, he shows his two arms like he was surrending himself.
“I couldn't find it, maybe I misplaced it in our bedroom, I'm going to search for it later, but now I have something to do,” he said.
He stood up and bring his backpack.
“Let's go, Astrid!” My eyes widen when my brother took her bag.
They walk away from the room just like we didn't exist in their sight.
I took a deep sigh and chose to follow them. I'm walking behind them while they are talking to each other.
Her face filled with joy and excitement. I think they are going to the park. My brother will give something to her.
I changed my direction because Astrid will notice it soon. I throw the empty cup of coffee and the plastic of the Toasted Bread.
I decided to go to the Officer's room to know the exact location.
After a few minutes, I arrived in front of the door. I knocked three times until I heard the door click.
I rotate the knob and door open immediately. They looked at me. Our eyes met and all I can hear were his thoughts.
The next program will be held in the forest, I know what was the name of it. They are planning to camp and stay for a while.
In that case, it will become an instant vacation for them. The silence remains inside of the four sides of the room.
They gulped when I stared at them one by one.
Maybe I should pack my things and ask Jihan to prepare our things. He's been with me since I came here.
Luckily, we are on the same team. I nodded at them and turned my back. I closed the door as if there's nothing happened recently.
I gasped and massage the side of my head. I took my phone and type something.
The message was sent to Jihan. He should read it and prepare the stuff.
“Hello! I think I know you, did we meet before?” a girl asked me. My eyes widen and I step backward all of a sudden.
She was staring at my eyes while holding a phone.
“Can we take a picture together? I noticed you since you came here, and I found you attractive,” she stated while offering the phone.
I'm standing there and too stunned to speak. I cleared my throat.
“Sorry? If you excuse me, It's not my thing to take a picture with someone that I don't know,” I said with a calm voice.
Keep your temper, because no one will choose to help you to calm yourself.
“But I want to have a photo with you!” she raised her voice. I shrugged my shoulder and look at the ground.
I'm starting to walk away when she holds my wrist. I harshly pulled my wrist from her.
“Sorry, Miss, but please, could you please stay away from me? I hate ladies!” I shouted.
Her eyes widen and she covered her mouth. I walked away. She is still standing there like she encounter a dangerous situation.
I shook my head. The nerve! She's familiar, maybe she's one of the students who played on the program last week.
However, I don't know her. So it's none of my business!
I decided to go to the parking lot, maybe they left the school already.
An hour has passed, I'm still sitting in the driver's seat. The nerve that she gave me earlier.
My heart was beating from annoyance. It seems like a beating drum.
All of a sudden, my phone vibrated. I took my phone and read the notification, it was a call from Jihan.
“Hello? What do you want?” I asked. The other line became silent.
“I just want to confirm this master, are we going to bring your favorite pillow?” he replied.
I became silent for a moment. If someone is staring at me, maybe that person will notice how embarrassing it was.
“What do you think?” I asked. He became silent once again. After a few seconds, the call ended.
I'm going to buy some coffee. I started the engine and begin to drive away from the school.
Some of the leaves are falling. The autumn season is coming. What is the best thing to do during when autumn season?
Coffee? Go walk in the forest? But it's dangerous!
Visit a farm? But we are going to the forest next week. The program will continue in the forest.
I feel like I fell from the highest building. The ring! I need the ring! My father will be mad at me if I didn't give him the ring.
I immediately call Yuan, but his phone keeps on ringing. They are busy.
I decided to wander around the community just to find them, I know they are not going too far because it's afternoon.
The moon will appear later.
Sunset! Maybe they are watching the sunset at the park.
I drive immediately and went to the park. My assumption was right. They are sitting at the bench while eating some burgers.
They were talking to each other. I can see that she's enjoying the company of my brother. All the laughter and smiles were because of Yuan.
My heart is clenching. It's like something was squeezing it. My eyes widen when Yuan puts his arm on the wood where you can lean.
All of a sudden, he looked in my direction and smirked. He can smell our scent. He's really my brother.
I chose not to interrupt them because it's unusual to walk in front of them out of nowhere.
It's creepy! Prepare himself, I'm sure he will pay for his actions. I turned the way to the car and decided to go home.
I'm going to search for the ring. My father will kill me. That's the thing I don't want to happen.
