BLUE MOON'S
BUSINESS CARD

After Aria's shocking words. I refused to continue the story.

I'm not sure if I can hear that story. I know, between me and Nathan there's no connection whatsoever. But, still. I feel jealousy and hurt.

"It's okay. Thank you for visiting and visiting me today."

After the story I stopped, Aria felt guilty and awkward towards me. He decided to go home and go.

"Jas. Sorry Zea if I made you misunderstand. I have absolutely no intention. I met them by chance. So I don't understand anything about this either."

"Yes. I'm fine with Rii. Don't discuss this with May. Let me make sure of it tomorrow. I don't want our friendship to be ruined."

"Just calm down, Zea, I understand." Aria nodded.

*****

How'this? My head was dizzy thinking about it. If I call Nathan and ask about May. Will he misunderstand?

I didn't think it through. This morning I told Aria I was fine. But look at me now. Keep thinking and don't stop being suspicious.

"Mother Zea?"

Ms. Alice's voice from behind my bedroom door stopped my daydream. His hands knocked at the door many times.

"Yes Mom. Entry only. I can't open the door."

Alice who entered looked surprised. Let alone him. I was also not aware of what I was doing.

"Mr? Why is it messy like this?"

My room is a mess. The clothes in the closet were all scattered, scattered on the floor.

"Hahahaha Yes, Mom. I am also confused as to why it is like this. I just wanted to change, but I didn't know which clothes to choose and which."

"Where are you going? Until I change clothes at all hours?"

"To campus Bu. I'm dizzy at home, I'd better go and meet the others."

I don't know anymore. But May's name kept spinning in my head. My curiosity about him didn't fade in the least. I think I should meet him today. My heart is not calm. Especially since it's about Nathan.

"But Ma'am, it's noon now. The campus may have also been dissolved. It's not that I have to rest enough. Why not tomorrow."

Ms. Alice was worried about my decision. Even so I don't care. I have to finish everything today.

"It's okay Mom. I'm fine now. There are things I cannot put off. Surely they're still on the campus and haven't come home yet"

Ms. Alice nodded, her eyes looking doubtful. But he let me decide and did not comment much.

"So ma'am, what's wrong? Mom didn't see me just because of this, did she?"

Alice looked at me confused. He frowned and raised both eyebrows. Thinking of something he should have said.

"Ohh yes Ma'am. I forget. Gosh."

Ms. Alice laughed and patted her forehead with one of her hands.

"There's a guest. But I'm not allowed in. I just let him wait outside the fence. I'm still a little traumatized by yesterday's events."

A guest? Who else came to my house today. It can't be Aria or May. They are both known in this house. Luke? Is he coming again. If she were, Ms. Alice wouldn't be acting like this.

"Who's Ma? I don't have an appointment with anyone today. Is it Luke again?"

Ms. Alice shook her head.

"not Mbak. I don't know the guy either. He said his name was Brian Mbak."

"Brian?"

I looked at Ms. Alice confused. Why did Brian come here? What business did he have to come to my house.

"What's the name Brian Bu? He didn't say what it was necessary to meet me."

"Yes Ma'am. I said earlier that Zea was sick and needed rest. But he insisted on meeting Ma'am."

"Certain Ma'am?"

"She also said, had tried to contact Mbak from the phone. But not lift."

The feeling since my phone has not rang, how could I not hear his call if he was on the phone.

"Good Ma'am. Excuse me first."

This morning Aria came. Now Brian is coming. What's really going on with those two. Why don't you just come together.

"Mobile?"

Where's cellphone. I think I put it on the table. Why there is no more. What fell down?

Huh!! Never mind. I'll look for it later. Perhaps it was struck by these scattered clothes. It's only fitting that I haven't heard any sound since. Maybe that's why Brian came.

******

"Sorry for long." I said to Brian who was drinking a glass of tea served to him.

Brian's sitting in my living room. Maybe Ms. Alice gave him the drink.

"It's not in what. I'm used to waiting. Even Aria is much longer." Said laughing.

"Don't equate me with him. If he'd been too long. I'm used to falling asleep while waiting for him to get ready." I'm retaliating.

Brian and I laughed together. Remembering the incident if you have to wait and make an appointment with Aria.

"Are you okay now? Sorry to interrupt your break."

"It's okay. I'm fine now. You don't have to worry."

Brian smiled and nodded his head at my answer. The relief was evident from his smile.

"So, what's up. I didn't know you were coming. Did you say Aria?"

Brian was silent for a moment. Thinking about the answer to my question.

"It has. But he said he was here this morning, so didn't want to bother you to rest. I had to come because there was something I wanted to ask."

"Ohh. What's up?"

I was sitting on a couch not far from Brian. The spacious living room seemed quiet for a while, before Brian finally returned to talk.

"It's about Nathan. When was the last time you saw him?"

"Meet Nathan?"

"Yes." Yeah."

Brian answered very briefly and seriously. His face was very tense, waiting for an answer from me.

"I don't remember for sure. A few days ago maybe. But, wasn't it yesterday that you and Aria had just met him?"

Brian and Aria had just met Nathan, so why did he ask me that again. He should have known better.

"Yes, I know. I mean, maybe you just met her yesterday?"

Brian seemed to doubt my question

"none. If I met, I would remember it right away. What's the matter?"

Brian fell silent. His face looked confused and thought of something. Then he shook his head.

"There's nothing Zea. I'm just a little worried about him."

"If you're worried, you can

contact him directly. Why should I ask you?"

If it's normal, Brian shouldn't have come to my house and asked me that. There's gotta be something until Brian has to see me.

"The color I can't reach Zea, and I'm afraid bad things happen to her."

"What's bad?"

Brian was silent. Not answering my question.

"Brian, you're here. Why not just tell a story? I'm curious now."

Brian caught the annoyance from my words. He hesitated to start his story. After sighing, he began to speak slowly.

"Actually Zea..."
