In a long chair under a tree in the hospital garden, Ariel was still sitting waiting.

His eyes glanced at the clock that coiled around his wrist, then sighed softly.

"I've been waiting here for an hour, hasn't he dropped me off? Even if it doesn't, either because it's busy or whatever it is, at least let me know dong,!" ariel Sulu.

Ariel was still waiting, occasionally her hand playing the dried leaves that fell towards her.

Suddenly his shoulders felt heavy as someone placed a hand over his shoulder. When he looked, a smile fell on the corner of his lips.

"I'm sorry, I made you wait a long time" he regretted.

"What did you do that took you so long, Joel?" ariel Protest.

"Taking care of your exit letter and also your license so I can take care of you" Joel explained.

"Is there a problem, right,?" ariel was worried.

"Not at all, only you have to keep coming here for follow-up checks and for cast release" Joel said.

"Thank God, then" greeted Ariel.

"So, we're leaving now?" ask Joel.

"Well, sure," replied Ariel.

Ariel got up from her seat and prepared to walk again. However, before Ariel does, Joel first hides Ariel and takes her to the car.

"Eehhh,, Joel,,,! What are you doing?" ariel protests as Joel lifts his body.

"This will be faster, and safer than you jumping on one leg" Joel said.

"But kan_,,,"

"Sshhh, you just have to be calm and quiet, that's all," Joel said.

Ariel puts her hand around Joel's neck and lets Jeol carry it.

On the way to Ariel's apartment, they chatted and recognized each other.

They arrived at an apartment that looked so beautiful. A large parking lot and a freight elevator in the corner of the parking lot make it easy for anyone who has a lot of stuff to bring to their apartment.

Joel got out of the car and circled around it, opening the passenger door where Ariel was sitting and helping her out.

Joel took Ariel back and walked towards the elevator.

"What floor?" ask Joel.

"Floor 6" replied Ariel.

Joel nodded and pressed the button. Until the door opened, Joel did not release Ariel at all.

"Am I not heavy?" ariel asked, opening her voice.

"If something like you is heavy, I don't know what about someone like me" Joel said.

"I'm serious, Joel. I can walk to my apartment" Ariel said.

"You're not heavy at all, Ariel. So don't worry" Joel replied.

TING,,,, TING,,,,

The sound of the elevator was accompanied by the opening of the door interrupting them.

"The door to my apartment is right there" pointed Ariel.

Joel nodded and stepped in the direction Ariel pointed. Until they stand in front of a locked door.

Joel lowered Ariel carefully and asked Ariel to lean back.

"Wait a minute, I'll get your stuff. Your apartment key is there, isn't it?" ask Joel.

"Yes, right," replied Ariel.

"Alright, I'll take it," said Joel who immediately ran away.

Ariel waited leaning back as Joel suggested to her. It didn't take long, Joel came back again with some bags in his hands.

Joel opens the apartment door and puts all of Ariel's stuff in it. Only then did he help Ariel get inside and sit on the sofa.

Joel rolled his gaze around the room, and chuckled in admiration.

"Do you live alone?" ask Joel.

"Yes, haven't I said it yet?" Ariel asked.

"I don't think so, yet" said Joel.

"Then I just said it," Ariel replied.

"So, you mean we're just two here?" joel asked again, widening his eyes.

"Why do you look surprised now?" greet Ariel.

"To put it bluntly, now your question sounds terrible!" greet Joel.

"Don't overdo it,!" ariel hatch. "As long as you stay here, you sleep on the couch" he continued.

"That's bad," Joel protested.

"Hey, isn't that part of the code of medical ethics that you're proud of?" cibir Ariel's.

"Well,, all right, all right, I'm losing" replied Joel raising both hands.

Joel's eyes were now fixed on a piano in the corner of the room by a large glass window. Showing a balcony with some curtains that are closed and look comfortable in a place to relax.

Joel approached the piano room and became even more surprised when he saw the entire room.

A well-stocked and neatly arranged bookcase, a small table with mats and pillows sat nearby, a basket with sheets of musical instruments wrapped in thick plstick and grouped according to the type of music, as well as a guitar and cello that is placed neatly and looks very well maintained.

"Ariel," called Joel in the midst of his shock, and stood in front of Ariel again.

"A-A-Is this musical instrument yours?" ask Joel. His eyes widened revealing shock and disbelief at the same time.

"If this is where I live, and it's here, of course it's mine" Ariel flatly said.

"Can you play the piano?" ask Joel again.

"Someone said I was pretty good at it" replied Ariel.

"Then, guitar and cello?" joel asked again with his fingers still pointing at the room where the piano was.

"I can play it, but I'm not good at it" elak Ariel.

'To be more precise, I teach music, ' he continued in his heart.

"I doubt you're telling the truth" said Joel.

"You don't know me yet, Joel. You'll only get an earache if you listen to my play" Ariel said.

"That sounds even stranger. If it's true, you can't possibly keep an instrument and take very good care of it like this" Joel said.

"It's up to you to say" replied Ariel.

Ariel threw herself down and lifted her legs onto the sofa. His hands covered his face.

"Are you hungry?" ask Joel.

Ariel brushed her hands off her face quickly and looked at Joel expectantly.

"Very, very," greeted Ariel. "Do you want to cook something for me?" hope Ariel.

"Only if you want to eat it" replied Joel.

"Of course I'll eat it," greeted Ariel enthusiastically.

"Well, let's see what's in your kitchen" Joel replied.

"I think we need to buy something, I haven't been shopping since the last day I was here before the accident" Ariel said.

"We can buy materials tomorrow, now we just use what is there," said Joel.

Joel stepped into the kitchen and looked at the contents of the fridge and cupboard.

'Hmmm,, pasta, bacon, eggs, and dried vegetables. I think it's enough for dinner. And earlier I also saw the cereal, it can be for breakfast tomorrow, I just need to smooth the texture, Joel inner.

Joel gritted his fingers and started chopping some onions and started cooking.

Ariel, who was sitting on the sofa, felt unable to stand it anymore as a pleasant aroma filled her nose and immediately caught up with Joel in the kitchen.

"Why are you here?" joel protested when he saw Ariel walking on one leg and slightly jumped.

"I can't stand the smell, it's very fragrant. What are you doing, Joel?" bela Ariel's.

"Pasta, it'll be ready in a moment, so sit down" Joel said.

Ariel is said to be sitting on a high chair in front of the counter table. His eyes stared in amazement at Joel's skillful hand that was cooking.

"I think whoever that woman will be your lover, she will be happy" Ariel chirped without looking at Joel.

His eyes were fixed on the movements of Joel's hands that were so deft in his eyes. Ariel propped up her chin and kept watching what Joel was doing.

"Why is that," asked Joel.

"You're good at cooking, and I have to admit, I lost compared to you. Not that I can't, but you're completely different" Ariel said sincerely.

Joel stopped his activities for a moment and looked at Ariel who was not looking at him. But he knew, the words that Ariel had just uttered were sincere.

"Should I get you a plate?" tawar Ariel's.

"No need," Joel refused. " I've prepared it," he continued.

Silent,,,,

Joel became even more silent than before, and Ariel felt it. His eyes looked at Joel's face, which had now changed.

"Did I say something wrong to you, Joel?" ask Ariel carefully.

"No" replied Joel briefly.

"But your attitude says yes" welcome Ariel not to give up.

"It's not something important" Joel.

"If your attitude gets this way, it just proves it is important" Ariel said.

Joel kept quiet and ignored Ariel's question. His hand poured food into the plate and immediately gave it to Ariel.

"Eat,!" joel said as he thrust the plate in front of Ariel and put the plate in front of her for himself.

"Joel,,, man,,,!" call Ariel to hold Joel's wrist. "What's wrong? I'm sorry if I picked up something that offended you without me noticing" she continued.

"There's nothing wrong, sorry if I overreacted" Joel said.

"You can talk to me anything, Joel," said Ariel dissatisfied with Joel's reply.

"It's my business, you don't have to go inside it, and stop acting like you know what I'm feeling" Joel said.

Ariel was stunned, her hand immediately released Joel's hand and lowered her head. Start eating food in silence.

"Sorry," said Ariel.
