Best Friend
Adrian walks to the campus. He had took his bicycle in the Literature building before Inaya voluntarily picked him up.

"Adrian."

Someone called him from the front and immediately brought down Adrian's cold expression. Two young men who came out of the opposite direction were his best friend, Brawijaya and Aden.

"Bray, Aden," Adrian called as he walked quickly to get closer.

They smiled at each other unconsciously, which had made several people spread their lips towards them. A hand handed material notes was given to Adrian.

"You didn't go so Mrs. Ophie was looking for you," Brawijaya said after Adrian took his book.

Adrian said nothing. He is speechless to explain the things he used to do. His two best friends are very memorized. Adrian the silent version is adrian who does not want to be questioned.

Brawijaya nudged Aden's arm and nodded his head. "Let's just go to the canteen, do you want to come or not?"

Aden offered without hearing the approval of Adrian instead dragging him. Inevitably Adrian went with two of his best friends.

***

In the canteen, many empty chairs with tables filled with dirty plates and glasses. All three of them were at the right time when many people entered the class. While Adrian's class starts at eleven it never hurts him to wait in the canteen.

Aden, as usual, immediately looked for a bench for the three of them while Brawijaya and Adrian were waiting in line. Such a time becomes an opportunity for Brawijaya to talk with him alone.

"Looks like you have to choose priorities quickly instead of wasting time."

Brawijaya said calmly but from his lips Adrian knew his friend was too worried. Since the beginning, Brawijaya advised Adrian not to major in literature. So it is with his parents. Even though it was Adrian's own wish that for some reason many people did not support it. Brawijaya might be among those who don't support it but he is the first person to help him at any time like this time. Small notes he said but all the material he wrote was neat and easy to understand like a smart book copy. Often, he and Aden copy Brawijaya's notes before the quiz or exam. If he think about it, he will remember how Brawijaya keeps complaining together with Adrian and Aden.
Adrian expanded his smile while waiting for the order, his hand raised.
"You're right, B." He ruffled Brawijaya's hair softly.

"But the time I gave is shortly."

"Two meatball noodles without meatball, one indomie with three glasses of hot iced tea!"

The sound of their orders changed Adrian's wistful gaze. Brawijaya hurriedly took the tray and straw as Adrian tried to maintain the expression on his face.

"One semester has passed, only two months it certainly can."

Brawijaya's words suddenly stopped Adrian's footsteps. There was another urge to move him.

"Thank you for the enthusiasm."
"I'm not encouraging you. Just talking facts."

Adrian stood on tiptoes to scramble Brawijaya's hair from behind his body. Elsewhere Aden called out to them.

"Why is that Aden?" Adrian asked to Brawijaya. They both did not know, opting out of the canteen after putting down the food and drink tray.

They both came to Aden, who immediately said, "Someone is looking for you. Looks like it's from a journalist's club kid."

"You entered the club?"

Adrian shakes his head but he knows someone who is really a member of the club. The person who ruined the morning.

"Not. How dare I take the club in such a critical state. "

Brawijaya shook his head before Aden asked many questions. From the eyes, he told Adrina to approach Keenan who was standing near the motorcycle parking lot. While the two of them returned to the canteen waiting for Adrian.

"Ken."

Adrian called his rival's nickname everyday. Shabby face, sleepy looks and untidy clothes, the characteristics of the person in front of him are very prominent on campus.

Keenan, the caller name, reached into his backpack. A paper appears and is offered right in front of Adrian.

"Here." Adrian took the paper unsuspectingly.

Just reading the header line that says Journalist Member Form, Keenan takes out a lot of vocabulary in a few seconds.

"Noella told me to invite you. Now I have to go and don't forget to return it tomorrow or it can be today too."

He pointed to a large tree without anyone there.

Adrian was stunned by the long words — fast — that Keenan said. Until his figure disappeared Adrian was still in his place. Trying to digest what happened 5 minutes before.

***

Corner hidden.

Gereta, Noella and Winda are waiting for Keenan behind the tree. They were very surprised when Keenan pointed at them. Fortunately, the diameter of the tree was about two meters and it was enough to cover their bodies. The three quickly surrounded Keenan as soon as the young man returned to them.

"Did he accept it?" Winda asked curiously.

Keen's shoulders lifted and answered, "I don't know." Very lazy, uncaring.
"Hah, Keenan!" Noella's hands felt itchy at the same time she hit her junior's head hard.

Keenan crouched down holding his head. "This is my head!" He shouted at the three campus singles.
