A Different Life I - Chio

On this sunny day, Chio has been busy with various kinds of paper and some many thick big books that are on the table in the university cafeteria. Today, his class will carry out the Exam for the Civil Law course that Chio is most afraid of. No... Chio is not stupid, in fact, he is one of the best students who is awarded every year, but this course is so complex that it makes him feel afraid when dealing with this one course.

"Aish... dammit, there's a lot of material to learn." He looked at the clock in his hand. "There's only 2 hours left," he said frantically to himself.

The two friends in front of him stared in surprise at Chio, who had been excited himself by flipping through his thick book.

"Hey calm down, Dude," said one beautiful girl with white skin, blonde hair and blue eyes.

"How can I be calm, I don't understand this course at all. Even during yesterday's lecture I could only stare because I didn't understand at all. And now in 2 hours I will have exam for this course," Chio said very frustrated. why there is no material that concerns his brain. Chio rubbed her head roughly making her hairdo now disheveled "Huh... Why don't you guys study anyway?"

"Have you ever seen us study?" asked the young man who was also Chio's age but taller than him.

"Well never." Chio was actually surprised by the behavior of his two friends in front of him; Albert and Laura. They are Chio's friends since the beginning of college. Being friends by accident, Chio bumped into the two of them while rushing to his classroom and from that incident they were finally able to be close like they are today.

"Well, you know, just relax, enjoy your coffee or it will quickly cool down. The weather is very cold today, don't let a baby like yourself get sick," said Laura, giving a cup of hot coffee to Chio. The young man he was talking about just stared at her lazily. No wonder he has often been called a campus baby because his very cute and have adorable face makes him look like a baby. But don't say cute or any cute words to him if you don't want to get in trouble. From existing experience, Chio will be very fierce if someone says that he is cute.

Chio took the hot coffee from Laura's hand and took a sip to calm his down. "No, if I don't study, what will happen if I don't pass this course?"

"Well, just repeat," said Albert casually. "After all, if you repeat we will also repeat it, so just calm down," he continued.

Chio shook his head noisily, he puffed his cheeks which now looks even more cute and funny. "No, I don't want my course to be repeated so I can graduate faster and meet my twin."

"Hah?" Chio's two friends said at the same time in a tone that was quite loud because they were surprised to hear Chio's narrative. Several pairs of eyes were now leaking towards their table. Both Chio, Laura, and also Albert could only apologize for confirming.

"You seriously have a twin?" Laura asked.

"That's true," Chio said casually, he was still busy reading the material.

"How so? since when?" asked Albert.

"The story will be very long, I promise I will explain it after today's final exam," Chio said. He opened his book which was placed on the cafeteria table and got up from his seat to go to his class because today was the last day of final exam soon the thing he feared the most would be coming soon. start. "Come on... why are you still there. if you're too late to be scolded by the killer lecturer again," he continued.

The three of them finally walked out of the campus cafeteria to the Civil Law course room with Mr. Edward as the lecturer. They finally arrived at the class before the lecturer came. The lecturer who is famous for being so murderous that all the students are afraid of him, including Chio and his two friends.

Finally, the final exam was started, the lecturer distributed the question sheet along with the answer sheet. This time's the final exam type is in the form of an essay question, Chio is grateful because if the answer is not knowing, he can compose very well. Approximately two hours passed final exam finally finished. Chio was so weak that he felt all his energy had been absorbed by the exam papers.

Albert and Laura walked closer to Chio, pinching the chubby cheeks.

"Utututu, why is Chio so sullen like that?" Laura asked. Chio groaned for a rest, he brushed Laura's hand away from his cheek.

"Hiks... Chio, Chio doesn't understand anything. Earlier... hiks... the answers were a lot of ridiculous," Chio said, tears starting to fall down his cute face. Well Chio is like that, he's ambitious to the bone. And if he doesn't get what he expects, he will definitely cry like he is now.

"Hey never mind let it pass. You also did your best," said Laura. He stroked the shoulder of the little boy in front of her. The youth raised his head and stared at Laura and Albert; his friends. Chio felt very grateful when like this his friends would always be there with him. Laura wiped the young man's tears.

"Come on, let's go to the cafe next to the campus, how about you? You haven't told us about your twin yet," suggested Albert, who only replied slowly by the young man. They finally left at the campus building, walking towards the cafe which was very crowded with students. They entered the cafe, a cafe with an all-vintage feel with a very futuristic architecture that creates a comfortable feel.

"Well, you guys just sit there, let me order the drinks," said Albert. Listening to the words from his mouth, Chio and Laura looked for a seat where no one came out. Chio's eyes immediately found a place in the corner of the cafe. They walked over to the chair and sat facing each other.

"So... how about it? Laura asked.

Chio was confused by what his friend said. "Huh? how's it going?"

"Your twin."

"Oh, I'll just wait for Albert to come, I don't want to tell you twice." The girl just nodded her head in understanding.

Fifteen minutes of waiting finally the person we had been waiting for came to our table; who else if Albert brought the three drinks they ordered. Coffee Mocha Latte for Chio, Iced Thai tea to Laura and a large glass of Ice Americano for himself.

"Well, since we've all gathered, let's hurry up and tell me, I'm really curious," said Laura impatiently.

"Okay, so here's the story. Actually, I'm twins, but because my father and mother divorced, the two of us finally separated. I went with my mother and Azka went with my father," said Chio.

"May I see the person?" Chio just nodded his head. He took his cell phone from his jeans pocket and showed some photos of Kak Azka to his friend.

"How can the style be so different? This one is so handsome and so cool but you is really cute, introduce me to your brother, Chio, please," Laura said when she saw the figure of her friend's twin.

"Not yet. I won't let it go," Chio said. He put his phone back in his jeans pocket.

"So what's your plan?" Ask Albert.

Chio smiled very brightly showing his cute side that could make anyone would be fascinated. "Plan huh?" Chio's two friends nodded their heads. "The plan is that after graduation, Kak Azka and I want to live together like we used to when we were little," Chio said with a sweet smile. He imagined moments like that. The moments where he will be able to continue to be with his brother—Azka.
