Remember You
The Brain That Overthinking

Shortly after Aunt Renata came home, Oma also followed. It felt like nothing was more relieving than being free from that nearly seventy-year-old woman's existence. As if you can breathe free air again after being smothered until half-collapsed.

Then I immediately took my steps towards the room on the second floor. Rushing to take a shower because the body feels so sticky by sweat. It took ten minutes to complete. Then immediately go down to the kitchen to pick up a few packets of snacks and soda cans.

Tonight, I intend to study. Haha, if I'm honest, I'm the type of person who learns if there's a repeat.

Coincidentally tomorrow there is a schedule of English repetitions in the first hour. Actually without studying or opening a book even though I believe I can get the perfect score. Wh why? The answer is because I have lived in America for a long time. English is a staple food every day.

Waw! Just this time there was something I could be proud of myself.

The study table has been arranged as comfortable as possible, including some favorite snacks that become study friends are now available in plain sight. As long as you know, learning without snacking is empty. And I can be sure to get bored and sleepy.

The first ten minutes, everything was fine. My focus level is still 90%. However, when a message notification suddenly went on the air, my focus percentage collapsed instantly.

At first I tried to ignore it. Thinking positively, it might just be a message from the operator. Then try to return attention to the package book in front of me while occasionally stuffing my mouth with strawberry-flavored jelly.

However, not long ago my phone again voiced a message notification. Well, it looks like learning activities should be delayed briefly because they have to check the phone.

Two messages from unknown numbers.

A little hesitant, but in the end I was curious and opened it.

📥 Hey Right this Nathan?

I didn't answer right away, but I opened the profile picture. A Funny Cat Picture. I guess. Looks like the owner of this number is Jeje.

📤 Jeje huh? What was?

📥 Jeje..Jeje..yidatmu!

📤 Just relax times. Who are you?

📥 Jeryco Handsome. Maybe you think I'm the cupu.

📤 Your profile cat. So I thought you were a girl.

📥 Do not judge people by their profile.

Hey, I think everyone would think the same way as me if they saw that profile picture,

📤 By the way what's going on?

📥 Want to remind you, pay your debt immediately.

📤 Yes.iya bawel!

📥 I need that money to buy chocolate. My third anniv tomorrow with Rachel.

In stupid times! who cares!

📥 You ignored me?

📤 Learn! tomorrow's repeat.

📥 Gini days still learning? You're II 12 with that Si Cupu.

📤 I don't want to be a fool like you. Oops! slip-ups.

📥 Then tomorrow I sit with you again, to cheat.

📤 BIG NO!!

📥 Big No that means 'i'm willing' right?

📤 I didn't think you were this stupid Jery.

📥 Hahaha.thank you.

And that unconnected reply was the end of our short chat. No lie, until this moment I have not stopped laughing amusedly. Still not finished with the behavior of inocents or stupid Jery that is almost indistinguishable.

About three minutes later, my phone returned a notification. This time not a message notification, but a video call notification. I immediately answered when I found the name 'Uncle Melvin' on the phone screen.

"What's up, Uncle?" ask me to start the conversation.

"I think Uncle should have asked. Why are you laughing yourself like crazy?"

How could he know? Oho! I almost forgot the ghost robot that was on my study desk. Uncle Melvin must have been watching me from there.

"Seeing the meme Funny." I'm alibi.

"It's twelve grade instead of learning instead of playing HP continues. What if I don't graduate?"

"OK, Uncle believes Anyway now Alena should focus on learning, learning, and learning. Reduce playing Hp. One more thing, Alena can't date any guy."

"Well, why can't we go out?" My intonation dropped an octave, sounding a little upset.

"Alena's a kid. Uncle didn't give you my blessing."

Okay, looks like I should change the topic immediately.

"Where is Uncle, by the way?" ask me shortly after realizing that Uncle's current background looks foreign. My uncle and I used to make video calls while I was still living in America. So unconsciously I memorized how the condition of his house even though it was only virtual.

"Uncle is now in the music studio." Uncle Melvin switched his video camera from front camera to rear camera. Then slowly show me how the studio situation is.

I don't understand, obviously there's a computer and tools that seem to be used to make music.

"Uncle wants another comeback?" I was curious when my phone screen again showed the face of Uncle Melvin.

"Yes, this time Uncle will be collaborating with the senior singer." Uncle Melvin replied enthusiastically.

My eyeballs were shining, "Really? With who? Male or female?"

"Female. With Tina Again."

"Well! Big occasion. Uncle must pepet Aunt Tina . Don't you saggy!"

However, instead of giving a beauty, Uncle Melvin actually pinched his lips. Put on an expression I can't describe. "Tina is engaged."

My spirit broke out for a moment. "Well... Uncle Melvin is single."

"Who said? Uncle has Alena" he said, chuckling. Show off its flagship gummy smile.

"Alena has a father, not an uncle. After all, Uncle Melvin wasn't my ideal type." I stuck out my tongue with a half-little face line. Purposefully. Want to make the man behind the screen of this phone even more upset because I keep trying.

"Ah, really? Later if suddenly Alena has a crush on Uncle how? Just so you know, most of those who are waiting in line to be Uncle's girlfriend are high school girls your age."

Oh, that sounds creepy.

"Uncle is a pedophile, huh?"

The man spontaneously raised one corner of his lips cynically. "Hey, that love knows no age. Did you ever hear the news about a 70-year-old grandfather marrying a 17-year-old girl?"

"Uncle has eaten?" I hurriedly switched the conversation. If it continues I will be alone.

"Here, we ate bread."

"Uncle must eat a lot! Uncle can't be skinny. Ugly later. Poor thing, nobody's gonna like it." No lie, Uncle Melvin with much more adorable chubby cheeks.

"Ready, Princess" he replied with a wink.

"Oh, yes. Where's your dad going? Uncle phone up to three times not picked up."

"Introducing Aunt Renata home" I replied casually.

"Where did it come from?" Uncle Melvin's paying attention.

"That super-sick oma asked Aunt Renata to accompany me shopping. Because it's late, Oma told Dad to take Aunt Renata to her apartment." I explained everything as it is.

"What time did your father take her home?"

I try to remember. "If it's not wrong at half seven."

"And now it's half nine in the evening. Has your father not returned yet?"

Spontaneously I checked the clock that was in the bar above the phone. "Not yet."

"Don't something happen?" Uncle Melvin's face immediately looked worried.

"Uncle don't scare me, plis!"

"It's not. It's been two hours, and your father hasn't returned home yet. And just drove Renata back to her apartment."

Trying to stay calm, I then hit, "Maybe Dad stopped by his apartment Aunt Renata. Here heavy rain, it could be in the area of Apementa also heavy rain."

"Almost said?" Both of Uncle Melvin's eyebrows instantly interlocked perfectly. Three seconds later he laughed strangely and his face turned red.

"Attracted? Heavy rain? Both? Did Nathan think about what Uncle was thinking?" Ask the man while gnawing at his own nape.

"Uncle, please! Don't make me overthinking"
