Ahh... I hate how barren this blog is right now. Boohoo..
So i decided to add a story scene which i practiced on the break time.
'As long as you don't give up, I'll-' Someone voices.. It keep replaying inside my minds.. Felt familiar, maybe because.. Its echoing from days to days, where it became clearer and clearer. Although no matter how i think, nothing has been recalled till now. 'Lire!' 'Huh?' A serious tone called out to me, where one of my hand is being shook slowly. I quickly realized my surrounding, regains my composure and replied apologetically. 'S-sorry, Nelson.' Slowly that person pull his hand away and faces back to his own laptop. 'Give me the data from your local database. I'd like to look at the structure first.' I nodded and send it to him as fast as possible through email, after zipped it. After that, I continued my own work. This person who sit right before me is an acquaintance from college. We happens to be in one team for Prof. Ashley's assignment. He's a bright lad and can work with him just fine, so there's no problem at all to complete these. Since both of us already done some part by ourselves and agree to complete it all by today, here we are, at the nearest cafe from my home. This cafe has a great atmosphere, where it has secluded space to work on things peacefully, hygienic environment and I absolutely love the classical music behind it. Well, the price for this kind of place is a little high, but once or twice won't do any harm to my wallet. 'So are we almost done by now?' I take a sipped of my sweet and warm lemonade, replacing my sugar-level and waited for his response. His typing continued for a few seconds till finally stopped and he flipped the laptop screen to my direction. I arches forward a little to take look at it properly. 'Oh.. Wow. Great job. I like these colour and-' 'What your suggestion for this part?' He pointed at some advertisement arrangement and some blank space that looks need to be filled with something. Personally I think its better to move it more lower, so it won't seems crowded. I sketches the rough template quickly and shoved it to him. 'How about like this for this one? That part is too crowded.' '..I don't think that's a good idea.' 'Why?' 'This part is important content, visitor won't really took effort to scroll down, just to see the ads.' 'Then.. How about this?' I sketches another rough template where the ads take place at the left side of the content. 'So, we can adjust the size of ads, turn it vertically and move the gadget into lower part. Will that do?' He silently pondering about what I said and not long after that, he nodded to approved it. 'Yeah. I hope Ashley won't ask for more of this.' I nodded. A brief look to outside from the window. It's noon already, orange colour is taking places in the sky. Time sure flies fast. After securing all the data inside both of our laptop and send it to Prof. Ashley's email, I sat down lazily, relieves from completing our assignments. I take another sip to drain my lemonade completely since it will be wasteful. 'Did something happen?' 'Eh?' Nelson surprises me with his sudden question, or more like his sudden initiative. We rarely talk about other things than our assignment. I even don't know his name if it was not for Prof. Ashley assignments. I quickly laugh foolishly to dismiss things. 'Its nothing, really? Just remembering some silly things.' '...Oh.' He dismiss it as quickly as how it begin. Since I'm not a very talkative person, and so he is, we ended up inside silent for few minutes. 'I think we'll get an A for this. We've completed it way more quickly than the limit time.' He looks at me with a grin and replied his response. Never know he could grin like that. 'Considering Ashley's nature, he won't let us get an A just that easily.' 'Maybe you're right, but this time I'm thankful that at least this is not some weird assignments.' 'I agree..' We're in agreement, although I didn't know where's the point he was agreeing with. The last assignment Prof Ashley given to us, is how to broke into porn website to unlock the premium features! For god sake... The boys inside class is clearly in heat for that, but I'm absolutely not enjoying it though. At least I appreciated the method, could be handy someday in future. 'Should we go by now?' I asked him first when he's taking another sipped of his black coffee. 'Sure.' With that as cue, we start clearing up all our stuffs like laptop, charger, hand- phone, memory disk and the rest, while putting it inside our bag. After done, we getting out from the room and reached cashier. 'Table 8, please.' 'Sure, please wait a moment, Miss.' The cashier search inside the computer to look at things that we've ordered. '1 chocolate cake, 1 marshmallow crepe, 1 strawberry parfait, 2 coffee and 2 lemonade. All is Rp. 178.000. Is it right?' 'Sure. Can you please split-' 'No need, please take this.' With no wasted effort, Nelson handed the cashier two hundred thousand from behind me. The cashier accept it immediately and give him his change. 'Thank you for your patronage. Please come again.' Both of us walked outside and stopped outside. I felt uneasy about him treating me, its not like we're something. 'Nelson.' His back stopped and he turned around a little. 'There's no need for you to do that. I'll-' 'Give me fifty thousand and we're all good.' Since I know mine should cost higher than that, I decided to give him one hundred thousand. '...Sure. Here it is. Thanks!' 'Don't mention it.' 'Okay, see you. I'll use the bus stop over that street.' 'Take care. Later.' 'Yeah, see you in Monday.' -Fin- |
