Part 3 "The beautiful waitress"       At the Moon Coffee...       "Hey Flav, the man who complained about our coffee yesterday, come here again," A waitress called Flav to stare a look at L who just walked in.       L gave a big smile at Flav who was standing with a menu in hand and found a place to sit.       Flav walked towards L' s table and asked, "What do you want to order, sir?"          Without answering, he stood up and looked at Flav, "What do you want to drink, Mrs.?"       "Please, make a quick order, sir because there're so many others clients waiting to order."       "Ok, so I choose for you, one hot coffee and kiwi frappe."       "Ok, sir!" Flav noted down and rushed to leave.       L didn't stop staring and smiling at Flav who was moving from one table to another table, serving and ordering for clients. She didn't have time to take a look at L.       "Flav," the boss called.       "Yes, sir!"       "Your job today is to sit down and talk with our client."       She knew immediately who the client was, no one beside L, the stranger.       “Yes, sir!"      Flav took a tray of coffee towards L. She put the cup of coffee on the table and sat down in front of him.      "Don't you have anything to do? Orr your work is to mess up with me?"      "You should take some rest," he said and took a sip of his hot coffee.      "If you don't have anything to say, I have to do my work."      "I pay the money for you to have some rest, Flav. Please sit down or I will..."         Flav interrupted, "Complain about me right?"      L smiled and tried to change the subject, "You're cute when you're angry.”      Flav stared at L with her annoying face.      "What do you want to know about me?" L asked.      Flav said nothing and L continued, "Let's say this is the first thing that we get to know each other more. Hence you won't call me a stranger again."      Flav finally smiled, "You know that right? Ok so I want to know about your family first?"      "After I finished, it will be your turn. Deal?"      "Ok, deal!"      "I m an orphan,” he said with a sad face and continued without staring at Flav, “My mom was killed after she divorced with my dad and after that my dad was died in the car crashed. My younger sister was sent to the United State after the accident of my dad. My brother moved to live in my dad’s house because he did follow my dad's step. I have to live alone after they all left, and follow my mother's step.” .     "I'm so sorry, L, it is such a sad story," Flav said and leaned to catch L's hand in order to comfort him.       "You are the first person who I share this with."       Flav smiled, "Don't worry, I won't tell anyone and at least, you're not alone. Sometime I also think that I am an orphan, I have a family which kicked me out from home after I graduated from high school,” Flav smiled and continued, “They never care about where I work or how I live. They only care about my brother. I can't to go to college and end up my life working as the waitress since my parents need money for my brother to pursue his study at the university. My life is too pathetic but I'm so grateful because I m better than some homeless people, have some good friends around me."       L smiled, "Am I counted to be your friends?"       "Yeah, if you don’t discriminate the poor like me," Flav said with a big smile on her face.      "Do you still want to work at the Sunshine company?"      "Yeah but it's just a dream. I have something to tell you, don't laugh at me, ok?"      "I won't,"      "In fact, I haven't gone through the university life. I just took self study through the internet so it would be crazy if they chose me to work there."      "If you want to work there I would make your dream come true."      Flav smiled, "It's ok, L. I know how difficult your family situation is, so it's better not to bother you and I'm fine with this job."      L frowned his eyebrows and then laughed out loud, "Do you know who is the CEO of the Sunshine company?"      "No, don't ask me about those rich people, I don't give a shit to care or know about them."      "Maybe it is one of the reason why you failed from your interview since you didn't even know who is the CEO."      Flav laughed out loud and they continued to have such a good conversation with each other. It has been almost more than three weeks that L kept coming to Flav work place and they became good friends.           At the Sunshine company...      In the CEO office, Sun was sitting on the chair waiting for his brother, Light which was known as L. Light walked in with a straight face.      "What do you want?" Light asked.      "Hi, Light! it's almost a month that you stay at the Cloudy hotel. Go back to your home."      "Mind your own business, Sun. I can stay wherever I want to because I still have to live alone, no family to worry about," Light said with anger.      Sun took his eyes off from Light and stood up, "Irina will come back from the United State soon, I hope you won't ruin your date with her again."      "You should care about your, business, the Wolf, lend money, take the interest from the loan and kill people instead of thinking about my company.”      "Shut up," Sun screamed and was about to punch Light in the face but he put his hand off.      "You look exactly like dad, Sun. Mom was killed because of dad but you still moved to live with him and kept following his step. Do you want to end up your life like him?" Light cried.      "It's a must for me to continue his business and stay away from me because I don't want you to walk in this dangerous ways with me. Let’s bring mom's company back and be the president of the Sunshine company. Do not lose it to someone else. Remember, Light, the vote of the president will come soon and we only have 35% for our investment in this company, so you have to marry Irina, her dad contains 20% of this company. He will give it to you after you marry his daughter and if you don’t we will probably lose the Sunshine.”       "But I don't love Irina either, you knew that already."       "After getting married, love will come after that."       "You said that because you never love anyone, Sun. I feel sorry for you."       "Remember, Light! you are 27 now not a kid anymore, you have to marry Irina or I will take this company back from you since you still keep behaving like a chicken," Sun said and walked out of the office, left Light standing with tears on his face like a small kid.       Meanwhile at the Moon Coffee...       Flav was busy with her job as always and she seemed searching for someone.      "Are you seeking for your friend?" the boss asked.      Flav rushed to reject, "Oh no, sir."      "He is out side. Let have a wonderful date with him, Flower," the boss said and smiled at Flav.      "Thank sir,"      Light was waiting for Flav out side the Moon Coffee, Flav called him with a big smile on her face.      "Hey Stranger!"      He smiled and waved at Flav from the other side of the road. She ran towards him with a big smile on her beautiful face.      "Where are we going?"      Light smiled, "The movie, the Belle and the Beast."      "That's my favorite Disney princess."      "Ok, let's go Belle," Light said.      Flav laughed out loud and continued the joke, "My majesty Beast."        Meanwhile at the Wolf village...      Sun was sitting in his office with phone in his hand. Suddenly there was a message from J and he rushed to open it. It was the photo of Flav and Light in front of the Moon Coffee and at the cinema. We can see Light's face clearly who looked so excited.      Sun insisted, "He only took the back of the girl, he really need to learn how to take a photo."      He finished his word and dialed to his best partner, Win.      "Hello, Win, I want you to do something, related to Light's girl."

     Meanwhile on the way back to Flav home...      "You can stop here, L and I will walk home."      "Should I walk you home?"      "It's ok, you need to take the car back to your friend. Orr if you're late he won't lend you his car, again."      Light made a face, "I almost forgot about that."      Flav smiled, "Thanks for today, L"      She said and got off from the car.      "Wait, Flav!" Light got off from the car and ran towards Flav.      "What?"      Without answering Light leaned to kiss Flav's forehead.      "L, what are you doing?"      Light stared at Flav's face, "I start liking you more and more from time to time."      "L!"      "Do not blame me for this, Flav. I will make you love me soon."      Flav started flushing, "We’re just friend, L!"      “I don’t want to hear about this.”      “Good bye,”      Flav looked at L and She left while Light turned out to be sad and hopeless.      "I hope you will love me for who am I and forgive for what I have lied, Flav."

     At the Flav rent apartment...      Mira was waiting for Flav at the front door.      "Who is that handsome guy, Flav?" she smiled.      Flav said nothing and Mira continued, "I saw everything, Flav."      "He is just a friend."      "A friend who makes your face flushing like tomato, Flav you're lying. Do you like him?"      "Stop Mira, I don't have time to care about boy."      "I know you like him."      Flav smiled and escaped from Mira to her room.

Part 2 "The mafia"        At the old and abandoned building which was far away from the town, we heard the sound of a man crying and begging for life. He knelt down in front of a group of mafia.       "Mister, please give me one more chance, I pledge I won't escape away. I will pay you back the money that I owe you and also the interest on the loan per month."       The guy in black suit and black glasses stood in front of the man, he had his hands crossed and his mouth was shaped as a straight line with no intention of a single smile. He was the boss of this mafia for sure.       The boss said with his death face, "How could you manage to pay me back since your business was bankrupted?"       "Mister, I..,I...,I will try my best to find the job and pay the depth."       "Kill him," the boss commanded.       " Please mister, please don't kill me," the man cried.       "You can't kill him, Sun."       Sun is the name of the boss, he turned back to look at the owner voice. His bodyguard, maybe because he's also in the black suit.       "You can't kill him with your anger."       "I'm your boss, Win not your best friend, right now."       "Listen, if you kill him who will pay the depth or you want to let the money died with him. Believe me he still could find a job and pay the bills."       The begging man nodded with joy, "You're right, sir. I will find the job and pay you back later."       "You can survive this time because of Win but if you dare to escape away. You know how cruel the Wolf is, I would kill you in place by my own hand. I won't regret the money that I lent you, remember this, I will consider your life as the depth," he finished his painful words and walked out of the old building.       Win and the other mafia rushed to follow him, left the poor man, sitting and crying alone in the old building.       Meanwhile at the Moon coffee...       Flav was sitting with her tired face, she could take a rest while there were not so many clients at night.      "Flower, you can go home," the boss said.      She rushed to stand up with respect, "Yes sir,"      "I will give you extra money since you work over time today."      "Thank, sir"      Flav came out from the Moon coffee and found the taxi to go home but there was none.      "I forgot that I work overtime today, it's almost midnight already. How can I go home," she insisted and decided to walk home.      It was not really dark at night since there were light everywhere along the street. Suddenly, Flav started to walk fast and faster because there was a guy with alcohol in his hand followed her.       "You can't escape from my hand, beautiful," he said and rushed to catch Flav.       She screamed and ran as fast as she could. Unfortunately, she couldn't escape from the drunken man, he caught her hand strongly and was about to rap her along the silence street. Flav screamed out loud for help. Fortunately there was a car passed by, the owner stopped the car and rushed to come out, grabbed the man neck and pushed him out from Flav. Flav cried and rushed to stand behind the hero. It was Sun, the Wolf master, in his black suit with no glasses. We can see how handsome he is, black and thick eyebrows with his powerful and sharp eyes, sexy lips, long nose and a hot face shape. Sun rushed to punch the drunken man in face, again and again until the man failed down with full of blood in his face.       "Stop fight him," Flav screamed.       Sun turned back to look at Flav with his sharp eyes, "Do you want him to rap you?"       "No, but if you keep punching him, he would probably die."       Sun stopped fighting and turned back to stare at Flav who was still having tears on her face. He walked toward her and leaned to wipe away tears from her face. Flav looked at him with surprise.        "Stop crying, you're with me now," Sun said and kept looking at her.        "Thank for saving my life."        "Where is your home?"        "Not too far from here."        Sun walked to open the car for her, "Come in, I drive you home."        Flav stared at him with fear.        Sun continued, "I won't rap girl in the car."        "No, I don't think like that."        "Or you want to be rapped by some other homeless along the street.”        Without responding, Flav rushed to come in the car. Sun drove her home. Along the way, they didn't say anything, Flav looked at Sun who was concentrating on driving his car with a straight face no smile as always.       "Do you fall in love with me after I rescued your life?" he asked without boring to take a look at Flav's face.       She rushed to take her eyes off, "You can stop here and I will walk home."       Sun stopped the car and leaned to take the seat-belt from Flav. His face was really close to her until she could feel his warm breath on her face. His sharp eyes didn’t get off from her face until she started blushing.       He laughed and whispered, “You’re not my type.”       Flav rushed to get off from the car, "Thank sir for saving my life and driving me home, I will pay you back later."       Sun insisted silently, "I m so tired of hearing the word 'Paying back later', annoying."         “What are you talking?”       Sun tried to make up, “I mean, I mean you should go home.”       "Good bye, sir!"       Without saying anything, Sun left and Flav rushed to run home. Arriving the big village of the Wolf master where is located far away from the town, Win was waiting Sun at the front door, the handsome partner and best friend with a beautiful eyes and sexy lips.       “Hey Sun, where have you been? I tried to contact you many times.”       “I just came back from my mom house and met a girl who was almost rapped by a jerk along the road when I came back home. I can’t help not to rescue her.”        Win laughed, “Seriously, the jerk like you saved a girl? Unbelievable!”        “Don’t get confused, I also have a sister, so seeing some girl being ruined by those kind of guys, it makes my eyes itchy.”        “Such a sweet poem while you still sleep with different girls for one night stand and kick them out. Why don’t you feel sorry for them?”        Sun sat down on the sofa and tried to change the subject, “Why did you call me?”       “Light ran away from his date with Irina again, he escaped with an unknown girl, I have already sent him message to come back home but it’s useless.”       “Irina’s dad just called me, asked about Light and I also went to my mom house to find Light but he is not home.”       “What will you do about Irina?”       Sun closed his eyes with stresses, “She asked her dad to cancel the engagement since both of them never met and Light always did this crazy thing to her, run away from the date.”       “I think you should stop forcing your brother to get married with the girl that he doesn’t love. As you see, the relationship between you and Light will be more destroyed than before. ”       “It’s a must for him to get married to Irina or the Sunshine company will lose to someone else. My mom had been working so hard to build this company after she died I promise I will never let it go to someone else.”        “Did Light know about this?”        “He’s the CEO, there’s nothing that he doesn’t know. By the way, do you know who is the girl that Light escaped with?”        “I don’t know.”        Suddenly, there was a phone call and Win rushed to pick it up.        “Hello, J...”        “What’s happened?” Sun asked.        Win put the phone on the table and said, “It’s J, he informed about Light. He stayed at the Cloudy hotel in room 412.”        “I know he would be there. Tell J to keep an eye on him since Irina will go back to the United Stat tomorrow so there’s no need to bother him to come out.”        “Ok,”

Meanwhile at Flav rent apartment...        “No, don’t kill me, don’t kill me!” Flav screamed until she woke up from her bad dream.        “What’s happened, Flav?” A fat girl with a chubby face ran to Flav’s room.        Flav cried, “Mira,”        Mira is Flav’s roommate for sure, she rushed to sit on the bed next to Flav and give her a hug.        “Tell me what’s happened, Flav?”        “Bad dream again,”        “Not only a bad dream, I know there is something more that you hide from me, the strong girl like you will never cry because of such a small thing like this.”       Flav erased her tears and looked at Mira, “Today is the worst day of my life, Mira. I failed the interview at the Sunshine company for the second time, I almost die because of a stranger who forces me to escape from a group of mafia with him and recently on the way back home, I almost got rap by the drunken.”       “You, idiot why don’t you call me to go and pick you up at your work place.”       “I don’t want to bother you.”       “Crazy flower”       “I think you are tired enough with your College, Mira.”       Mira hugged Flav and comforted her, “Next time, call me Flav and I know you did well enough for your interview.”       “No matter how talented am I since there is no certificated from college, I won’t be able to work there, Mira. Just a self study on the internet, it doesn’t work. I know I can’t make it already.”       Mira was about to cry and hugged her friend strongly, “I’m sorry, Flav.”

Part 1 “Stranger”       "What? I failed the interview again," the girl screamed out loud with surprise while she couldn't find her name in the candidate list on the wall. She slapped her head and blamed herself, "I think I have done well enough for this fucking interview and how come I fail."       Suddenly she shut up and opened her eyes wildly because there were so many people around her waiting to check for their result.       A girl with nasty hair insisted, "Have you done checking your name yet? Or we will let you take those papers with."       The girl forced herself to smile hardly, "I m sorry I think there's no one here."          "Idiot,"       She walked out from the crowded with a dump face. As we could see her gorgeous diamond face very close, sweet brown eyes, matured eyebrows, small nose, rosy blossom lips, pink cheek that guys could not to deny to kiss but ridiculously, her hair looks a bit messy since she doesn't give a fuck about how she looks maybe. The girl walked slowly and turned back to give a look at the company where she took the interview for the last time.       "I have been dreaming to work here since I was young but I couldn't make it and I still have to say goodbye," she insisted and then screamed out, "But I swear I will never give up."       She finished her words and turned back to leave suddenly she bumped strongly into a guy behind her until she failed completely in his arms. The guy tried to catch her not to fall down. They both stared at each other until the girl started flushing.       "I’m sorry, I shouldn't be so careless," she said and released from the unknown's arms.       He smiled and grabbed the girl's hand, "Come with me."       "What? What are you doing? Hey you, stranger. Leave me!"       "Run, run or you will die," he said and caught her hands without releasing to run with him, seemed like they're escaping from some group of mafia. They hided behind the car from a group of gangsters, behind them.       "They're gone," the girl said.       "Thank god," he took a deep breath and smiled to show a dimple on his left cheek, his sexy lips and sweet eyes that you could not stop staring at, the kind of hot guys but it seems like the girl doesn’t care to give him a look.       "Let me go,"       "Oh I forgot that I hold your hand."      The girl stood up to leave.      "Hey, wait! what's your name?" the guy asked.      She turned back with a death stare on her face, "Is it important to tell you who am I since you crazily almost take my life to die with you."      The guy laughed and followed her, "I m L, nice to know you."      "What's a crazy name? Anyway don't follow me, I don't want to die while I'm still young."      "If you don't tell me I will keep following you."      She stopped walking and turned to stare at L, "My name is Flower, people keep calling me as Flav."      "A beautiful name as the owner."      "Ok, now goodbye, you should leave."      "Where are you working?"      "What? You said you would leave me after knowing my name, so now it's over."      "Just one more question."      "At the Moon Coffee, good bye!"      "Ok, bye see you at the Moon Coffee."      "What?"      L smiled and rushed to leave while Flav stood still like a statue, curious about what that handsome jerk was going to do.      At the Moon coffee, Flav was too busy with her part time job as the waitress. She looked really active with her job even it seemed too tired and knackerd.      The boss, "Flower!"      "Yes, sir!"      "There's a guy over there complained about the taste of our coffee, he said he wanted to talk with you. Make sure that you could persuade him not to complain about our shop."      "Sir but I m just a waitress, not the coffee expert."      "I don't know too but he only wants you."      "Yes, sir"      Flav rushed to meet the client who is waiting for her to complain.      "Sir, what do you want?"      The guy turned back and Flav opened her eyes wildly, "L!!!"      He smiled and pulled the chair for Flav, "So excited that you remember my name, sit down Flav."      "No,"      "Ok, so I will call your boss and complain about this."      Without answering, Flav sat down silently.      "So what do you want from me?"      "Be my friend."      "Why do you want to make friend with me?"      "Because you're cute."      "I'm serious, stop flirting."      He chuckled, "I think you're in the same situation as me, I heard you failed for your interview at the Sunshine company."      "Why do you know that?"      "I heard you're blaming yourself."      "Yeah, it was my second interview, and I still failed. I did well for it and I am sure that the judge cheated on me. They did corruption."      "Why are you so clear about this?"      "Unless you see my capability, I m very good at designing clothes."      "And you end up your life working as the waitress here."      "Because beside the Sunshine company, I won't work in the other place. It was my dream to work there and I have to make it."      He laughed, "I hope you could make it."      "Unless I go to meet the CEO of that company, kidnap him and force him to let me in."     L bursted out a quirky laugh, "You're so mean."     “I’m just kidding,” she finally smiled.     Suddenly L stopped laughing and turned out to be seriously sad. Maybe because there was a text sending to him and he rushed to open it, "It likes you can escape from my eyes forever, Light. Come back home and prepare to meet your fiancé."      He frowned his eyebrows and put the phone on the table with a sad face.     “Are you OK?”     “I need to go right now, see you later, Flav,” he said and rushed to leave.     “He is so strange,” Flav talked to herself.

What is LOVE?

Part thirty five       "Moon, I love you."       Moon opens his eyes and gets up from his bed to kiss me who can't get my eyes off from his face. I miss his kiss, his soft lips and the feeling of kissing with this handsome jerk who left me for so many times without contacting me. Moons grabs my hips and pushes me to his bed. We kiss madly and I don't know whether there's something happens more than this passionately kiss. His hand grabs my thigh and pull up to my breast. He kisses my neck slowly until I almost melt into ice with the warm of his breath.       "Moon," I call his name with a soft voice.       He stops kissing and looks at me who blushes like a red tomato under his haft naked body.       He whispers, "You come to my room too early because you want this, right?"       "No, I'm just afraid that you will leave again."       He smiles and gives me a quick kiss on the lips, "I miss you so much."       I push him from me and rush to get up from his bed, "You miss me but you crazily never contacted me, do you know how much I think about you? How much I want you and how hurt it is to think about you left me again," talking about those hard time without him I almost cry.       "You told me you need time."       "You, fucking giving me this four years to think about my feeling for you. I told you I need time but not that too long like this," I know tears are coming out from my face.       Moon comes and wipes away tears from my face, "I'm sorry, Meow. I did want to contact you but I can't because I don't want you to see me in the bad condition. I want you to see me as a perfect man, not a chicken. There were so many things for me to face with while dad is still in the hospital."       "Please, don't leave and promise me not to escape from me again when you're in trouble because no matter what I'm still yours and I will be by your side."       I haven't finished what I want to say yet, Moon leans to kiss my lips. He whispers, "Let's do more than a kiss."       Instead of answering, I kiss him back as the answer of acceptance. He's the best kisser as always.       Moon asked me for a date this evening, I have to be hot and sexy for my baby. I come out of the room and see Moon waiting for me outside with Jack. He stares at me with his sweet eyes.      Jack looks at Moon and then stares at me, "Meow doesn't look like an angel, you should stop staring at her, brother. She still looks like a cat."      Moon laughs and takes his eyes off me, "You're right."       I glance at both of them, "You two really get along with each other, and tend to hurt my feeling."       "No, Meow! I don't," Moon rushes to refuse.       "No, man, you're afraid that she won't let you kiss her right that's why you dumb me like a potato," Jack insists and we three laughs out loud.       Moon brings me to the same restaurant four years ago where he celebrated my birthday on the roof top. It seems like a dream for me to have Moon by my side again. I just can't stop staring at his hot face and still scare that he would leave me again.       "Meow,"       Moon calls my name, gets up from his seat and walks towards me who sits in front of him. He kneels down and pulls out a black box from his pocket. He opens it with a ring inside.       I open my eyes wildly like a cat, "Moon!"       "Meow, will you marry me?"       I smile with tears streaming down my face, "Yeah, yeah Moon, I love you."             Moon takes out the ring and pulls it on my finger, I take Moon up and lean to kiss him.      "I love you, Meow more than everything."      "I love you more."      We continue to kiss madly under the soft light of the moon. I can say that my life is completely perfect with Moon. He's right in the moon, there's only a cat inside and I am his clumsy cat who could only survive in his space, the moon. 

Let find out who is your Moon lol.

Happy Ending  <3

What is LOVE?

Part thirty four       Dori looks so gorgeous in her wedding day. Adam can't stop staring at her maybe.       "Cat, do I look okay?" Adam asks me and releases a long breath.       "You look absolutely handsome,” I admit with the big smile on my face.       "Too nervous, there are so many people."       "Relaxed Adam today is your special day."       He smiles, "I think I m ready to be a good husband."       I laugh out loud, "Be ready to be a daddy."       "Baby, no that's too fast."       I make a face and his guys friends come to tease and make fun of him.       "Tonight, you don't need to sleep," one of Adam friends teases him.       The other guy protests, "Just make it shorter but romantic."       They only make fun about what to do for the first night of the honey moon until Adam's face turns red. This is guys when they meet on their friend wedding day is to recommend and give experience or some tips about sex.       Dori waves at me and I rush to walk towards her.       "Hey Dori, you look absolutely beautiful."       "Cat, I m so nervous."       "Just smile Dori, let make this day magnificent," I say and hug her.       "I m ready."       "Yeah let's make it perfect."      She smiles at me and walks towards Adam.The wedding goes perfectly and fluently and now it's time for party and make some toast for the new couple. Before the party begins, I rush to go to the bathroom to add some more makeup since I was too busy and have got no time to care about my face but I suddenly have to stop in crowded there's a guy who looks exactly like Moon standing over there in front of me. Am I dreaming or crazy? I look at that guy without blinking and keep walking towards him.      "Cat, do you see Jack?" mom calls me.      I turn back to look at her, "No, mom he's not with me."      "Ok, there are so many journalists here. Be pretty sweetie."      I nod and turn back to find that guy but he is not there anymore.      "It's just a dream."      Looking at myself in the mirror and forcing myself to smile like an idiot.      "Dori is right, I should find someone else to replace Moon. So I won't be crazy like this again, seeing and dreaming about him everyday and everywhere," I talk to myself and take a deep breath.     The party begins and now it's time to make some toast for the new couple. First, it's Dori's mom who is chosen to be the first speaker on the stage.     "Dear, my sweetheart, you look so beautiful today," she cries and continues, "You're not a kid anymore and you're going to be a a good wife sweetie. I love you so much."     And then it's Adam's dad, "To my boy, let's be strong like your dad and make a football team." Everyone laughs out loud with his speech and he continues, "Your mom and dad want to have a lots of grandchildren."     And now it's my turn to make a sweet toast for Dori and Adam, "To the bride and the groom, you both look so beautiful today. Seeing you two being together is my dream, let keep your love permanent and have so many kids. I can't wait to be called as auntie."     Dori smiles and kisses Adam who sits next to her and I continue, "I have a special gift for the new couple."     Everyone keeps silent and I begin to sing a song without music for them "All of me". I know it makes people surprised and laugh to tear because of my voice and there's gonna have news on the magazine tomorrow but I don't care because it's the gift for my best and best friends. Dori comes on the stage to hug me with tears on her face.     "It's the best gift for me today, Cat. Thank ya so much."     I smile and hug her back. Some more friends come on stage to give them wishes and make fun about the new couple. I feel a bit dizzy after drinking wine. In fact, I m not too easy to be drunk but maybe because I m too tired after filming the new movie and until now I don't have time to sleep well or relaxed yet. There's a bit silent, maybe there is no more people who wants to make some toast for them.     "To the bride and the groom, I hope you will love each other till the old age and have so many grandchildren."     I smile with both eyes still closing and whispers to myself, "His voice sounds familiar.”     "And to the girl who is sleeping over there, you're still lazy like your name, Meow."      I immediately open my eyes and look at the stage, it's Moon who is making toast on the stage with the smile on his face while I get stuck like a statue, unable to move or say anything beside standing up and staring at him with both eyes almost pops out.      "Do you know who am I to you yet?" Moon asks from the stage with millions eyes staring at both of us.      I look at Dori and Adam who are trying to tell me that it is really Moon with their behavior. I smile and run to the stage.      Moon looks at me with the sweet smile on his face.      "Who am I to you? Do you know the answer yet?"      Without answering I run to hug him and cry, "I love you."      Everyone is clapping and howling for us.      "Marry me Moon," I ask.      "We just met and you ask for married," he smiles.      "Just marry me, so I won't lose you again, ok marry me."      Moon laughs and kisses me in order to stop me from talking. The journalists are trying to take millions pictures of us now but I don't care because the guy who I kiss is really Moon.

What is LOVE?

Part thirty three       Dori is dating with Adam maybe because he should be back from the United State by now. Seeing them having a sweet relationship, it makes me feel relaxed and delighted because they both are my important people.      I go back home not to be the third wheel who destroys that sweet couple's dinner. Jack is taller and more handsome but the thing that not change is that he's still the gamer.      "Meow, do you have time to play game with me?" Jack ask.      "Kid, I m not free. I need to meet the director for my new movie."      "Just spend some time with your brother," he begs.      "Call your girlfriend to come over and play with her."      He turns back to leave and insists, "I should call her mother instead."      The director recommends so many things for the new movie that I have to play as the vampire. It's going to be hard for me because Ram also plays as the vampire, my partner in this movie. I want to reject not to play but since I have been filming for this channel many times already. So, it's difficult to deny.      A message from Dori, "Can we have lunch together? At the Chinese restaurant, your favorite place."      Dori is waiting for me with the big smile on her face, I smile and sit down in front of her.      "What's about your dinner with your boy last night?"     She grins and shows the ring on her finger, "Adam asks me to marry him, Cat. He finally proposes me."     "Congrats Dori, so when you're going to get married?"     "As soon as possible because Adam doesn't want to delay it. He can't wait to be together with me," she laughs.     I make a face, "Let make a football team."     Dori stares at me, "Adam and I do not think about having kids yet since we have no time for it. Just think about our business first."     I laugh, "Let's see."     "Yeah let's see. Anyway you're my only one best friend. It's a must to attend my wedding no matter what or I will kill you."     "Even when the sky is falling down I promise you I will make your wedding party become famous because of my present."     Dori shakes her head, "No no no, make sure that you won't bring the journalists with."     "I can't interdict them."    "Ohhh too lucky to have my Idol attending the wedding."    "Anyway please note that you still need to design me a dress for your wedding."    "What? You're too nasty."    I laugh and make a joke, "You're the best designer Dori, I want you."    "I know how to handle with you as well."    I nod and grin at her. Dori and Adam are too busy with their upcoming wedding and work. It's so sad that I can't help them because I also need to finish filming the new movie before the day of their wedding. However there's also a happy thing to enjoy, Ram stops flirting me and confess in the public that he can't win my heart and he asks me to be his sister instead. I hope Moon see this and realize that I m still waiting for him as always.

What is LOVE?

Part thirty two       4 years after the day that Moon left me for the second time without keeping in touch with me. My life has completely changed. Now I am the pop star, not really famous but I am the idol to every girl and crush of all the guys.      Here they're the journalists everywhere, "I m sorry, Cat. Can you give us some information about your relationship with Ram?"      The journalists follow me until Dori work’s place. Oh my god, seriously it is hard to escape from their eyes. I get out of the car which the journalists are standing around even I want to run away but I can't.      "Just a minute, Cat. We want to be clear about your relationship with Ram since your fan doesn't accept about your relationship with him."      I take off my black glasses and look at the camera, "Ram is my friend nothing is more than that even he likes me as friend or girlfriend, I don't care because I already have someone else who I can't erase from my heart since I was a kid. Do I need to tell you again and again that I still wait for him? So do not ask me again about my relationship."      "Cat, Cat!!!! Can you specify who is that guy?"      "Hey, I m sorry but one minute is over," I say and turn back to leave.      Dori is drawing and designing dresses. She is the famous designer and she also owns her cloth shop now. It's funny I m her model anyway.      "Oh Cat, how come you're here!", Dori blurts and comes to hug me.      "How can you escape from the journalists?" Dori hands me a coffee and sits down next to me.      "Too annoying they follow me everywhere."      "What's about Ram?"      "They just asked me about that gang, he tries to flirt me but my heart doesn't shake for him."      Dori laughs and puts the coffee on the table, "Stop waiting for Moon, Cat."     "Why?" I look at her.     "We don't really know whether he has already got married or has kids until now. How can he just buzzes off and we never get any information about him. He just stops keep in touch with you."     "I m used to it, Dori. It has been more than ten years if we include the first and the second time that he left me."     "So just wake up from your wildest dream and find the suitable guy to replace him."     "What's about Adam? Has he come back from the United State yet?"     Dori shakes her head, "Do not try to escape from the topic."     I grin, "Let's see if there's a guy who looks exactly like Moon and has the same humor as him."     Dori makes a face, "That guy is still Moon."     We burst out a quirky laugh.     "Where's my dress?"     "It is almost done, I just need to add some more decorations on it. You will like it."     "Even I don't like but I have to like it since I m your model."     Dori laughs out loud and shows me the dress that she almost finished it. After a long chat Dori get me spaghetti from the refrigerator to eat since it's my favorite food.     "You still have time to cook even you're too busy. I m so proud of you."     "Just because Adam like spaghetti, and he likes the homemade food. I m going to be a good housewife."      I make a vomit noise, "That's too sweet. Everything is about Adam."      "So just find a good guy to cuddle with," Dori raises her eyebrows.      I put the fork on the plate, stop eating and look at her, "You know the reason why I become the pop star as well because of Moon. I want him to see me even I can't get any information about him but he knows every single thing about me from the news."     "I hope he follows the news as well."     "When Adam come back from the United State?"     "You want to ask him whether he met Moon or not? Oh my god the United State is too big. How can they meet."     I laugh, "If the miracle still happens."     "Eat your spaghetti, I have to finish my work before 6 pm today because I have a date."     "With who?"     "I don't know."     "Hey, Dori I will accompany you," I scream.     "No, Cat!!! Don't be the third wheel."

What is LOVE?

Part thirty one       I m on the way back home now with the big smile on my face. I will punish Moon strongly for hurting me a lots during this crazy trip with Jack. I can't eat, sleep well and enjoy the nature because of that handsome jerk who I passionately fall into deeply.      "Meow, are you okay?" Jack stares at me.      "What? What's about me?"      "You smile nonstop."      I grin, "Let's guess, who is gonna be the first that we will see when we arrive home?"      "Meow, I think you're not fine, there's only mom at home so who that we need to see first," he makes a face and continues, "Dad? it's nonsense."      "I m not talking about Dad but Moon, he would ask mom when we will arrive home and now maybe he's waiting for me at the front door with his cat already. I think he can't wait to see my face," I smile at Jack.      He frowns his eyebrow, "You really need to meet the doctor."      Arriving home, there are only mom and Dori who are waiting for us. Mom runs to kiss me and Jack.     "Kids, do you have a lot of fun?"     Jack answers, "Yeah a lot of fun, but Meow needs to meet the doctor maybe."        "What happened to Cat?"     "She's strange not like Meow before."     Without caring about Jack gossiping about me I walk towards Dori who is standing on the stairs without giving a smile or asking me.     "Hey, Dori where's Moon?"     "Come back home and ask for Moon, do you love him?" Dori teases me.     I smile, the same question that Dori asks me and now I don't feel awkward to answer this question anymore, "I love him Dori, I love him so much."     Dori catches my hands strongly, "I m sorry Cat.”     "Dori what are you talking about?"     "it's too fast until I can't help you. I m sorry, Cat. Moon is not here anymore. He is gone."     Tears are running on my face uncontrollably but I force myself to smile, "Is it a joke? Dori. I know you help Moon to make fun of me again. He wants to revenge me for going to the trip without telling him, right. I will slap his ass for sure."     "Cat, he is leaving. It's not a joke, Moon goes back to the United State with his mom."     I wipe away my tears and look at mom who's standing behind me with Jack.     "Mom is it right? Moon left me again?"     "I m sorry Cat."     I cry and scream at mom, "Why don't you tell me?"     "We can't contact you and it's too fast, Cat. Moon needs to leave, his dad stays in the serious condition now. He got the accident seriously."     Dori adds, "He left without saying goodbye. It's too fast Cat."     Without saying anything I run as fast as I can to see Moon at his home. I don't believe for what Dori and mom have said. Moon will never left me alone like that again. Arriving his home but there's no one, the door is locked. The old lady that I saw when I came here before walk towards me.      "Are you here to see your friend?"      Without answering I nod and she continues, "It's too late, they're not here anymore."      I sit down on the stairs and cry strongly, my heart is burning and my throat gets stuck till I can't say anything, tears continue to spill out like the cascade and I don't care to wipe them away. Coming back home, laying on my bed with tears still come out from my eyes. I haven't told him that I love him yet. I can't contact him, he deactivated his Facebook account. I know he would never play it again like the way he used to be. Thinking about the day I left him alone after he confessed that he loves me, it makes me feel like Moon will not tolerate for what I have done and he would probably think that I consider him as Adam the guy that I don't love. Mom is knocking on the door asking for dinner but I can't do anything besides crying now. I blamed myself for not being here to comfort Moon when his dad got the accident, I always stay far away from Moon when he needs me the most. This is Cat, the selfish girl.      Moon left me alone again without giving any information or keeping in touch. Let see this time how many years that he keeps staying away from me or maybe forever I don't know but what I know is to wait for that guy till the end because there's no one who can replace him. I LOVE MOON.

What is LOVE?

Part thirty      Jack borrows his teacher's phone to call mom, tell her about the broken phone and what had happened even I don't want him to tell mom about the accident but Jack doesn't listen.      The first night, camping in the forest, it sounds nice and excited for people who loves nature but not me as well. It doesn't mean that I hate nature. To be honest, I love nature but right now the nature makes me sadder and sadder without reason. I walk out of the tent to get some fresh air while Jack is playing with his friends around the fire and some parents are chatting and drinking with each others. It looks like they have a lot of fun but me why am I sad.      "Meow, come over here!" Jack is calling.      I smile and he runs towards me with ice cream in his hand.      "It is crazy right? There's ice cream in the forest,” Jack laughs and whispers, " My friend, that fat guy, he asked me to get one of his snacks. It seems like his parents bring the refrigerator with. There are so many things to eat and I know you like ice cream, so I got it for you to say sorry for your phone."     "Hey, I m not hungry. You can eat it and don't put yourself into my broken phone again. It's not your mistake. Okay!"     Jack smiles and teases me, "Today you're the angel, my beautiful cat is angel today."     I grin, "Have fun, I m going to get some fresh air."     "Don't go too far Meow, there's snake."     "Jack, shuts up your bad mouth!" I yell at him but he runs rapidly to his friends.     I wonder why he does behave like Moon, he reminds me about the ice cream and lies me about the snake like the way Moon did. I keep walking to the place where I can look at the piece of the moon clearly and the image of Moon starts to appear in my head immediately. There are plenty good memories with this guy and different tastes of life. I miss him passionately which I can't deny and I can't protect myself not to get hurt from this loneliness without Moon, I feel like I am empty like the blank paper.     Day two and day three passed without any information about school and Moon, it is like a thousand years without rain. I sit under the tree every night to stare and talk to the moon like the way I used to be when Moon left away.     While I m looking at the moon, suddenly there are tears running through my face. I don't know why my heart is too suffering from this loneliness and I just want to cry and cry like my heart is chopping to pieces.     "I love you, Moon passionately. I love you now I know that I do love you, Moon!!!!!!!!!!" I scream out loud to the moon with tears streaming down my face and smile, "I love you...Moon I admit that I love you."     Can he hear what I m screaming? I hope it can reach him as well because I can't wait to tell him that "I love him too".

What is LOVE?

Part twenty-nine       Dori is right, I still don’t know about what is love yet. It is too rough to answer this question, “Who is Moon to me?” The only respond is I don’t want to lose him but in the name of his sister, best friend or girlfriend, I don’t get it.       I m staying home, watching cartoon with Jack, suddenly he rushes to hug mom when she comes back home, I know he wants to ask her for something.       “Jack, what do you want?” Mom asks, it is funny, she also has got the same feeling like me.       He grins, “Will you go for camping with me?”       Mom shakes her head, “No, Jack I m working.”       “But mom, the school will not allow me to go camping alone without parents.”       “I m not free. It is not holiday. Anyway, the camping is not important.”      Jack is crying, “All of my friends and others kids in class, they all join. They go with their mom and dad,” he wipes away his tear, “I want to go there with them too, with you and with dad but he’s not here.”       “Jack, why do you say like that?” Mom yells at him.       “Because I am known as a kid with no dad,” Jack screams and runs rapidly to his bed.       “Jack,” mom is calling without following him and she looks at me who is sitting on the armchair looking at her with a sad face.       “I m sorry, Cat,” she says and walks toward me, “I shouldn’t have blamed Jack for these.”       “Jack is right, we were called as a kid with no dad at school. I think he also gets bully like I did when I studied in high school,” I say and walk to my bed.       Mom says nothing for these because it is right. Moreover, she spends a lot of times with her job til there’s no time left for me and Jack.       During diner, Jack doesn’t talk a lot like before, I know he is upset with mom.       “Jack, I m sorry,” mom says but Jack doesn’t reply and then she continues, “I wish I had times to accompany you but it is not possible.”       Jack protests, “Just for five days, can’t you ask for permission?”       “Five days is too long,” mom precises.       “Can I go instead of mom?” I interrupt.       They both look at me and Jack asks, “Why not?”       Mom answers instead of me, “No, she has class.”       “I can ask for permission, don’t worry about me because I want to have some times for Jack and also for myself.”       Jack stares at me, “Will you be able to spend day and night living in the forest with us?”       “Let’s see,”       “Don’t you afraid of sunburn?”       I reply without looking at him, “I will bring the lotion with.”       “What’s about your study? You will be absent for almost a week,” mom asks.       “Moon will help me to handle with these.”       “OK, so Cat will go with Jack.”      Jack starts having a big smile on his face again, “Do not lie me, make a promise Meow.”       “I promise.”       At night, I chat to Dori in hope she will asks a permission for me. Immediately, she sends a video call to me. I rush to pick it up.       “Hi, Cat! why you will be absent for two long?”       I show her the clothes that I have already prepared on the mattress, “Camping, I will go camping with Jack.”       “That’s bizarre, you have to sleep in the forest, don’t you?”       “Yeah, for sure, anyway are you drawing now?”       Dori smiles, “I ll show you something,” Dori shows me her drawing, “Can you guess who is that?”       “Adam, one hundred percent.”       She laughs out loud, “Yeah, I draw it for his birthday.”       “That’s so sweet, he will like it.” ��     “By the way, why don’t you ask Moon to ask permission for you? Do not tell me that you won’t tell him about your trip?”       “I just want to escape from him for awhile.”       “For what?”       “To learn about my real feeling for him.”       “I hope you can do it, Oh Adam is calling.”       “You can talk with him, Bye Dori.”       “OK, good luck Cat.”       I hope Moon won’t be upset for what I have done because I have already told him about the real reason why I need time to be alone. It is 8 o’clock in the morning, Moon doesn’t call or send me message to ask why I m not at school, maybe Dori has already told him about my trip.        “Meow, it is time to go.” Jack is calling.       “Don’t forget your bag,” mom screams.       “Don’t worry mom.”       Mom rush to hug me and Jack and kiss us to say goodbye, “Good luck, sweetie. Take care yourself and your little brother. I love you, too.”      “I love you too mom,” I say and hug her back.      Jack smiles, “I will bring you a tiger from the forest.”      “Shut up Jack, there’s no tiger in the forest.”      We laugh and rush to get into the car. Jack is extremely excited to see his friends but he becomes sad immediately.      “Why are you sad?”      “Meow, there’s only me who goes there without parents, they all have.”      “What’s about me?”      He laughs, “At least, I have you. Anyway, I change my decision I won’t sit next to my friends. I will stay with you.”      “Whatever,”      Along the rode, I keep staring at my phone in hope Moon will call me but no, he is upset for I have done for sure. I really want to call him right now but my fingers get stuck every time, I see his phone number. I force myself to sleep but when Jack calls me to do something for him, I rush to open my eyes because I always thought that it was Moon calling my name “Meow”.      Arriving at the forest, we have to walk up the mountain because the rode is to small to get in. Jack is talking on the telephone with mom about our arriving and then he hands me back my phone.      “Can’t you keep it for me?” I ask.      “I don’t want to use smartphone.” this is answer remind me about Moon again. Why Jack has got a lot of things the same as Moon since he is my brother not Moon’s.      I take it from Jack and walk up the mountain with the others. The rode is too risky to walk, so many stones and sticks. I don’t know why this school recommend students to come here. Suddenly, Jack missteps over a stone and I rush to catch him.      “Jack, be carefully!”      His head is almost got hit by the big stone, luckily I get him on time. His teachers and his friends come to see him.      “I m fine, Meow.”      One of his teacher helps Jack to stand up and carries his stuffs.      “Jack, is this your phone?” a kid asks, “It is all broken.”      “That’s mine, oh shit! how can we contact mom,” I insist.      “I m sorry, Meow,” Jack says.      “Nothing Jack, you’re important than this thing.”      “But your knee is bleeding.”      “Not a big deal,” I force myself to smile at him.      I won’t get hurt if Moon was here.

What is LOVE?

Part twenty-eight       I still remember tears streaming down his face when I woke up from fainting, still remember his words “I love you.” Moon loves me.       I m waiting for Dori at the bus stop in order to get to school together.       “Hi Cat,”       “Hi,”       Dori comes to sit next to me, waiting for the bus.       “I called you yesterday but you didn’t pick up.”       “I was with Moon,” I look at her to catch her attention, “I was almost got hit by the car yesterday.”       “What? Did your mom know about it?”       “No, but you know what ? Moon, he saved my life again.”       Dori smiles, “He is your real superman.”       “He just confessed that he loves me.”       “Really! What did you say?”       “I said nothing.”       “Do you love him, too?” Dori stares at me.       “This is the question that I keep asking myself the whole night. I don’t know who is he to me? Brother, protector, best friend or more than these.”       “You still don’t know what is love?” Dori precises.       “I don’t understand about my real feeling for him.”       Dori puts her hand on my shoulder to comfort me.       Arriving school, Moon is chatting with Adam at the cafeteria. Dori leads me to walk toward them. I don’t know why I really want to escape from Moon since he revealed out his feeling about me.       Dori pulls out a chair for me to sit in front of them, Moon hands me a box of cake.       “The gift from my mom.”       Dori takes it from him instead of me, “It is your favorite cake, Cat.”       Without talking to Dori, I ask Moon instead, “How is your ankle and hand?”       “Better,”       “Did your mom know about the accident?” I ask.       “No, I didn’t tell her about these.”       Adam clears his throat and teases, “Dori, why don’t you ask about my finger? It is still hurting.”      “What’s happened to your finger?”      “You bite it yesterday.”      Dori smiles, “This is your punishment.”      Adam and Dori are laughing at their joke while Moon is starring at my sad face without blinking.      During break time, I lay down to sleep on the table because I m afraid to face with Moon.      “Meow, are you OK?” he asks but I pretend not to hear it.      When I open my eyes, Moon is not in the class anymore. I try to find him but he is not here. Suddenly he is coming back with a box of rice and water in his hands.      “You haven’t had breakfast yet,” he hands me the food.      I stand still without taking the food from him, he puts it on the table instead.   Everyone in the class is staring at us. I can hear their voice admiring and jealousy about Moon and me.      Before going back home, I grab Moon’s hand and guide him to the garden.      “What’s happened?” he asks.      “I have something to tell you.”      “The reason why you’re sad?” he precises.      “I don’t want to lie you like the others guys,” I scare to look at his face, “About my real feeling, I still don’t know who you are to me?”      “Who am I to you? It has been more than ten years and you don’t know who am I to you.”      “I m sorry, Moon. Can you just give me times to think about it?”      “You need times?”      “Yeah, you’re very important for me. I don’t want to lose you but I don’t really know clearly who you are to me?”      “Am I your brother, best-friend or more than these?”      Without answering, I give him an unknown answer from my facial expression instead and turn back to leave him standing alone. I m sorry Moon but this is the best ways to learn about my real feeling for you.

Part twenty-seven       “Do you wanna play the video game?” Moon asks.       “Yeah, for sure.”       I rush to help him stand up.       “That’s OK, let me do it by myself.”       We are about to play the video game, suddenly there is a phone called from Dori.       Moon grabs the phone from me and turns it off.       “What are you doing?”       “It is time to play game, no talk on the phone,” I grimace and he admits,   “We’re going to play the racing car, if you win I pay you food.”       “If I lose?”       “Dance,”       “That’s unfair.”       I haven’t got the answer yet, the game started. I try so hard not to lose and finally I did it, the winner.       “I win,” I scream with joy and stand up to jump like a kid, “I win,”       Moon looks at me and laughs out loud.       “You’re the loser but you laugh, that’s funny.”       “I laugh because I don’t need to win the game, you have already danced.”       I stare at him and grin, “At least you have to pay me food.”       “Don’t you want to play another games?”       “Why not, I m addicted of video game. Jack will never be the winner when we play and you’re the second Jack.”       “Let’s see,” he raises his left eyebrows.       It is 4 pm, we prepare to eat out at the Chinese restaurant like Moon has promised. His ankle is better now, he can walk a bit properly without needing my help.       Arriving at the restaurant, he orders all my favorite foods.       “How can you still remember my favorite foods?”       “Remember it by heart.”       I smile, “I didn’t remember yours even one.”       “Cool,”       “But Salmon, who is Salmon?”       Moon looks at me, “The fish, how can you ask me who is salmon?”       “And you saved my name in your phone as Salmon, am I your favorite fish?”       He is giggling, “It is unique.”       “I should get you one too.”       “Thanks, but no need.”       I stare at him with furious but he pretends not to see me and plays with his phone instead.       The foods are already on the table when I come back from the bathroom.       “Oh, the smell, like the foods from heaven.”       “The smell of salmon is better than these.”       “No salmon here,”       “Why not?” he looks at me.       “I m not your salmon.”       After having the special dinner, we go out to have some fresh air at the park.       “Moon! there’s ice-cream over there.”       “Where?”       “On the other side of the street, over there.”       “I will stay here because my ankle will start hurting again if I keep walking further.”       “OK, wait for me.”       I run to buy ice-cream at the other side of the rode.       “Meow, the car,” Moon screams out loud.       I get stuck unable to move, the car coming straight toward me, fortunately there’s someone pushes me from the back not to be hit.       Waking up from being fainted because there’s a voice keeps calling my name non-stop.      “Meow, are you OK?”      “I m fine,” he helps me to sit down.      “We need to go to the hospital.”      “You saved my life again, what’s about your ankle? Is it hurt? Look at your hand, it is bleeding.”      “I m fine, just care about yourself.”      “Why you have to risk your life in order to protect me again and again?” tears start to fall down and I add, “Don’t you care about yourself.”      He wipes away my tears, “ Because I love you.” he says and hugs me tightly. I get stuck when Moon says that he loves me.

What is LOVE?

Part twenty-six       “Hello, it’s Moon’s mom who is talking.”       I hesitate to reply because I haven’t said sorry for destroying her birthday yet.       Ms. Mira precises, “Can you hear me?”       “Hello, I m Cat.”       “Oh, Cat, I don’t remember your voice. Anyway the name was written as Salmon, I think it is the fish seller. Oh my baby, he shouldn’t have named you as a fish. I m gonna blame him for this.”       I force myself to laugh, “Not a big deal, it is just a nickname.”       “OK, do you call for Moon?”       “Yeah, but Ms. Mira, is it too late to say sorry?”       “Sorry! About what?”       “The dinner,”       “Forget about it, by the way, could you come to my home today?”       “Oh, let me ask my mom first.”       “OK, I hope you can come because Moon will be home alone and I m worried about his ankle.”       “Is it still hurting?”       “Yeah, maybe because it did hurt him a lot as you knew when you took him home, yesterday.”       “I will hurry to get there.”       “Thank Cat, so Moon is all yours now. Take good care of him, I will be back in the evening.”       “Yes, good luck, Ms. Mira.”       “Thanks,”       Putting the phone back on the table, I hurry to  prepare myself in order to get there as soon as possible. Mom is preparing breakfast.       “Mom, Ms. Mira asked me to visit her house.”       “She just called me for permission.”       “So, good bye mom,”       “Wait,” she hands me a big box, “How can you visit someone’s house without bringing any gifts with.”       “What is it?”       “Strawberry jam and pickled cucumber,”       “Thank mom, bye!”       Maybe Moon doesn’t know that I m coming, I stand in front of his house and ring the bell but no one comes to open the door for me. Suddenly, there is an old lady coming toward me.      “Hi, are you Cat?”      “Yes, I m Cat.”      “Mira asked me to give you the key,” she says and hands me the key.      “Thanks,”      “You’re welcome.”      Opening the door, Moon is not in the living room. He’s still in bed for sure. I rush to prepare a breakfast for him and put my mom’s jam and pickled in the refrigerator, feel like it was my own home.      After preparing breakfast, I spend time reading the journal in the living room. Moon still doesn’t wake up yet, I keep scrolling the journal  til the hot news, “A baby died because of high temperature.”      I insist in a low voice, “What is a mother?” then I close the journal and think about Moon who is still in bed, “Does he have a high temperature?”      I say and rush to get to his bedroom, the door isn’t locked, I tiptoe not to make soon, he is sleeping in the nice ways not as bad as me. I get next to him and lean up to feel his forehead, the temperature is not too high. I kneel down and put my ear next to his chest in order to listen his heart beat.      I whisper, “Everything is OK.”      “How dare you sneaking into a guy’s room?”      It is Moon’s voice, I stand up to see his face and clear my throat, “Good morning, breakfast is ready,” I speak in the shaking sound.      He gets up to sit down on his bed without saying anything and I continue to talk in order to hide my shyness, “Do you need some water?”      Without getting his answer, I turn back to leave but Moon catches my hand and pulls me back not to leave. I fall over him strongly, our face is almost crushed, our eyes are connected without blinking, we’re about to kiss.      “Why are you here?” he asks.      I rush to get up from him, “Ms. Mira asked me to look after you.”      He insists, “I m not a kid.”      “So you don’t need me, I should go home then.”      I turn back to leave, Moon suddenly screams with pain, “Aii,”      “What’s happened?”      “My ankle,”      I rush to see his ankle which is swollen up like a balloon, “Is it hurt when I touch it?”      “A bit,”      “Do not try to stand up by yourself again!”      “I need to go to bathroom.”      I help him to stand up, and walk him to the bathroom.      “Do you want to stay in the bathroom with me?”      My face starts flushing, “No, no,”      “So why don’t you leave?”      “Err, call me when you need something?” I rush to go out and close the door for him.      I m sitting on his bed, waiting for his commendation.      “Meow, get me a towel!”      I rush to take the towel from the wardrobe, and get it to him rapidly. I push the door to hand him the towel without asking.     “Aiii,” I close my eyes and scream out loud, he is naked.     “Why don’t you knock on the door?” Moon yells.     Without saying, I put the towel next to the door and turn back to leave. I hurry to the kitchen, have a drink and breath spontaneously.     “Cat, you saw nothing.”     Moon tries to walk with one leg to the kitchen, I sit there reading the journal in purpose to pretend that I m not shaking with shyness without getting up to help him.     He sits down in front of me to have his breakfast. I try to look at him with the eyes half closed through the journal. He immediately coughs and I hurry to get him water.     “Thanks,”     “My mom gives you strawberry jam and pickled cucumber.”     “She knows how to make a strawberry jam, cool.”     “I know how to make it too, I will teach you if you want.”     “I don’t like strawberry jam but my mom, she adores it.”     “I need to teach her maybe.”     Moon puts his spoon off and looks at me, “Your face! it is red like a tomato?” he asks like there’s nothing happened.     I feel my face which is cool as ice, “Don’t care about my face, just eat your food,” I pretend not to be shy.     He smiles and continues to eat his breakfast while I force myself to read the journal without understanding what the title is even I try to reread it again and again because my heart is nearly popping out.

What is LOVE?

Part twenty-five       “Prepare for fishing, I’ll go to pick you up in the next 30mn.”       I blurt out, “What? Fishing, I hate it.”       I insist and get up to take the shower, Jack and mom are having breakfast in the kitchen. I go there and join them.       “Where are you going?” mom asks.      Jack admits, “You dress up like an ISIS.”       “Fishing with Moon, the weather is too hot, I need thick clothes to protect my skin. I m scar of sunburn.”       “Did you do something wrong?” Jack asks.       I stop eating and look at his face, “Why you ask me this question, it is unrelated?”       “Since you loathe fishing unless you did something wrong and have got no clue to reject that’s why you accept to accompany.”       I stare at him, “None of your business, monkey. By the way, do you have any stuffs for fishing?”       “I don’t think you need it.”       “Why not?”       “You just go and watch Moon fishing, so why you need it.”       I shut up and continue to eat without protesting with my little brother because he is right, I m that kind of girl.        Jack is right, I dress up like an ISIS, a hat, mask, jacket, and  black sunglasses. Moon gets off from his car, stares at me who is standing at the front door waiting for him with the umbrella on the right hand.       “Are you a vampire?”       “I m afraid of sunburn,” I say and rush to get in the car.       He keeps chuckling non-stop along the way to the fishing field.       “What are you laughing at?” I ask and take off the mask, “It’s hard to breath.”       “Keep wearing it, you look nice,” he teases me.       I glance at him and he continues, “I don’t think it is going to rain.”       “The weather is nice, today,” I mumble.       Arriving the place, he parks the car under the cassia tree where you will fall passionately with the color of cassias’ flowers, red and yellow. I come out to feel the flowers which were failed plentifully on the green grass and made it become yellow instead of green.       “We don’t come here for picnic.”       “I know,” I make a face and come back to take my stuffs, follow him to the place where he prefers to fish.       “Do not go to far, just find a place with the tree’s shadow where we can sit without being disturbed by the sunlight.”       He doesn’t reply and keeps walking, finally he stops and turns back to look at me who is walking like a dog behind him, the umbrella is in hand.       “I think here is pretty nice.”       “Yes, very nice, we can sit under the oak tree and fish.” I rush to confirm.       Moon puts his stuffs on the ground and starts preparing to fish. The fishing rod is in the hand, he pays attention to see whether the fish is biting the fishhook or not.       “I pay for you if you want to eat fish.”       He stares at me and hisses, “Learn to speak in a low voice.”       I grimace and blurt out, “Oh, the fish is biting.”       Moon quickly turns back and pulls the fishing rod up.       I unpredictably jump up and scream with joy, “Oh my god, the big fish.”       “Give me the box.”       “OK,”       Moon continues to fish and I keep sitting behind him, one hour, two hours and three hours, he still keeps fishing while I have to sing, do gymnastic, talk non-stop and keep asking when will he go back home.      “We got so many fishes, I m hungry,” I insist.      He bits his lip and leans his hand to grab my face, “Too hungry huh?”      I try to get his hand off, “Your hand smells bad, you catch fishes.”      He takes his hand off and smells it himself.      I wipe my face, “Does it smells good?”      He nods, “Yeah, I love fish.”      I suddenly make a vomit noise.      He stops fishing now, I know because he doesn’t want to hear me complaining without ceasing again and again.      Arriving the car, Moon takes off a box of food from the back seat of his car and the carpet for picnic.      I hurry to help him, unbelievable that this gang also prepared food for picnic.      “Salad and cheese sandwiches, they make my mouth water.”      “I did it,” Moon grins and sits next to me.      I stare at him with eyes almost pops out, “Seriously?”      “Yeah, I always cook by myself at home,” he precises.      “Let me taste it first.”      “How is it?”      “Better than the chef in the Chinese restaurant.”      He laughs and taps his hand on my head. We are having a romantic picnic under the beautiful cassia tree.      “I m full,” I says and lay down to sleep on the carpet.      Moon is still eating, “Look how lazy this girl is, look like her name, Cat, eat and sleep.”      “Don’t have a lot of time to relaxed like this,” I close my eyes, “Hmm, I can feel the fresh air.”      “The frog is on your head,” Moon yells out loud.      I rush to stand up and scream, “Where is it? Get it off from me.”      Instead of replying, Moon is giggling out loud in the goofy way, I frown my eyebrows and bite my lip with furiousness. He makes a silly joke again.      Moon stops laughing and looks at my anger face, “The frog is gone,” he admits and stands up to play with my head like I was a dummy who knows nothing.      He continues, “There’s no ice-cream here.”      “I will eat you instead,” I say and rush to fight him but he rapidly escapes away.      I run as fast as I can to catch him but he is faster than me, I run til sweating like water, suddenly he stumbles over a rock. Instead of revenging him, I stand still and laugh like an idiot.      “The rock helps me.”      He says nothing and lays still unmoved.      “Moon, are you OK?”      He doesn’t reply and I rush to pick him up, “Moon, Moon,”      I try to shake his body and scream louder about to cry, “Moon, are you OK? Moon, Moon,”      “I would die if you keep shaking me too strong like this.”      “Are you OK?”      He laughs, “I won’t die in that easy ways.”      I push him away, “You scare me again.”      I stand up to leave but he catches my hand, “Help me to stand up, my ankle is hurting.”      Instead of helping, I kick his ankle and he screams out loud, “Aii, are you crazy? It is hurting.”      “I m sorry, just to make sure whether you lie me or not.”      I help him to stand up and walk him to the car, his ankle does suffer him a lot.      “Meow, walk slowly,” he commands.      “This is the punishment for ya,” I complain.

What is LOVE?

Part twenty-four        Can’t imagine how crazy I was yesterday, cried out loud and madly in front of Moon in order to get an excuse from that gang. I m still a kid for him, yes exactly. Waking up in the morning and I receive this photo from him with a caption below, “Feeling so fresh after dreaming that a Cat is crying like a Cow.” He gets something new to tease me again, just look at his stubborn and rude face, will you punch this handsome jerk? I would love to slap him in response for snapping me yesterday.       Moon is standing in front of the class, pocketing and staring at me who is walking toward him, he doesn’t even smile at me, instead of saying hi, he raises his left eyebrow. How big-headed and rude he is with that serious straight-face?       “Here, your breakfast,” I hand him a box of sandwiches.       He takes it from me and I continue, “Well noted for what you had ordered, no onion nor tomato, put cheese with salmon steak and ham.”       “OK, well done for your first punishment,” he says abruptly.       “What’s about the second?”       “Tell you later,” he turns back to leave.       During break time, he unpacks the box of sandwiches and eats it without asking me to join since I haven’t prepared for myself. Suddenly, he chokes and coughs spontaneously. His face and ears turn red immediately       “Did you put chilly?” he asks and uses his mouth to help breathing.       “A bit,” I precise.       “I told you...”       I interrupt, “You haven’t told me not to put chilly.”       Without replying, he rushes off to the cafeteria to get water for sure, I can’t help not to laugh out loud, still remember his face looks exactly like the time when we were young, he dealt with me to eat chilly if I would go fishing with him.       You know what the sandwiches are all mine now, enjoy my favorite breakfast but too sad there’s only salad, no onion nor tomato.       Moon doesn’t blame me for putting chilly on his sandwiches because it is his own mistake, forgot to clarify me and I intentionally pretend to forget about his weak point.       It is Friday night, I got the message from him, the second punishment is to sing a song for him through phone. How can he ask me for this since he knows my voice as well, it sounds like a cow crying every time I start singing everyone will buzz off from me. Suddenly, he calls me. I know he wants me to complete the second punishment now.      “Ready,” he asks.      “What song?”      “Sorry by Justin Bieber.”      “No, I m not a fan of Justin.”      “Because you’re a fan of Selena.”      “Exactly, I m gonna sing, my favorite song.”      “OK,”      “Talking to the moon by Bruno Mars.”      “I m listening.”      I clear my throat to begin singing, “I know you’re somewhere out there, somewhere far away. I want you back, I want you back. My neighbors think I m crazy they don’t understand. You’re all I have, all I have. At night when the stars light up my room I sit by myself talking to the moon, trying get to you in hope you’re on the other side talking to me too or am I a fool who sits alone talking to the moon.”      “Why you stop?”      “That’s all.”      “No, you haven’t finished the lyrics yet.”      “It is gonna be the same lyrics, talking to the moon which is unspeakable like the ways I did almost every night when I was young.”      “So now you stop being such a fool again right?”      “Not really.”      Suddenly, there’s a voice from his other side, I can hear it clearly, “Moon, video call to your dad, he needs to talk to you, right now.”      “OK, mom.”      “Good night moon,”      “See ya tomorrow.”      “Tomorrow, we have no class. It is holiday.”      “I know,” he finishes his words and turns off the phone.      I put the phone back on the table, “My voice is not bad anyway he didn’t teases me about it.”

 What is LOVE?

Part twenty-three      I keep recalling Moon but it is helpless, this time he does get angry. Will he tolerate for what I have done? It is the same mistake which I couldn’t find any clue to eliminate it. Suddenly, mom is knocking and I hurry to open the door for her.     “Where are you going this evening?” She looks very serious.     “I had dinner with Dori.”     “So how crazy is that you told Moon, you would join Mira’s birthday.”     I burst out a scream, “Birthday!!! it is his mom’s birthday.”     “And you’re the one who destroys it, they had been waiting for you since when? Did you know that?”     “Mom, I honestly forgot it.”     “Mira called me to make sure whether you will come or not but my wonderful and very perfect daughter just precised that she forgot the meeting,” Mom stares at me.     I know Mom is making sarcastic, she blames me for my silliness.     “Mom, will you do me a favor to handle with these?”     “No, absolutely no, none of my business, you’re the trouble maker and solve it by yourself, Good night,” She is leaving without giving me any clue.     “This is the punishment for ya, Cat,” I talk to myself.     At school, Moon doesn’t even look at me, smile, or say hi. He pretends that I m not existed. How sad it is?     I clear my throat to throw out a word, “Hey!”     It seems like he doesn’t hear it and I make it a bit louder, “Hi,”     He turns his face off from the book but not to look at me, just look straightly toward the white board.     “I m sorry for last night,” He says nothing and I continue, “I deserve for my same and same mistake.”     He listens without saying a word or even looking at me, suddenly, the bell rings and Moon grabs his bag to leave without offering me an excuse. This time, I can’t survive from the war again. I rush to go to the can-tine in hope Moon is there but he doesn’t, in stead of seeing Adam and Dori having breakfast together, giggling, having fun and sweet things together. I don’t join them because I don’t want to be a third wheel. Moon goes back home maybe because he is not in class for the second session.     There are plenty of homework on the table but I keep staring at them instead of doing, my soul is floating away, it is hard to call it back. My phone is ringing and I rush to pick it up in hope that it’s Moon but no.     “Hello, Dori.”     “Is it well going with Moon?”     “He doesn’t even look at me.”     “Oh, I saw him talking with Adam this morning like there’s nothing happened.”     “He gets angry with me not with Adam.”     “You’re right but why don’t you just come to his home and say sorry to his mom. I think it would help a lot.”     “I have to solve it by myself, no one could help me.”     “Why don’t you use your silly skill?”     “I don’t think it would help Dori,” I release a long breath and continue, “I have no mood now, Good bye, see ya at school.”     “See ya,”     I lay down to sleep on the table and keep thinking what Dori has suggested to utilize.     The next morning at school, I skip class in order to surprise Moon during the break time. Moon is walking toward the coffee shop while I m trying to blow the bubble rapidly, so they will be floating everywhere. Everyone is looking at me, talking and laughing. There are a lot of bubbles floating, Moon stops walking in order to find who is the owner of these bubbles. He now is standing in front of me without laughing weirdly like the others do. I m curious why doesn’t he laugh while I m wearing clothes like a nerd with a cat hat.     I stop blowing bubbles, “I m sorry for what I have done.”     He stares at me without blinking, instead of answering Moon rushes to take the hat off from me.     “Who told you to wear these kinds of things,” he yells at me.     I haven’t replied yet he grabs my hand to leave from the crowded toward the garden.     “I just did it in order to say sorry,”     He releases his hand from mine, “You think I want you to be like a clown?”     “I do it as my punishment.”     “For what?”     “Destroy your mom’s birthday,” I look straight to his eyes and he turns away.     “Forget it, that’s over,” he stops and then continues, “Dori and Adam are more important that a crazy party with my mom.”     “Moon, I can’t let Dori...” he interrupts me, “I know they’re important to you as best friend.”     He turns back to leave but I scream out loud in order to stop him.     “Moon!!!”
