"What?" asked Brother Eric."I need marijuana," I repeated.“Yes, I heard you say that,” said Eric, “I'm sorry for being surprised. But this is the first time I've heard such a request from you. I never heard of you using drugs before. I thought you just like alcohol.""I'm a trustworthy person," I said."Why do you use marijuana?" asked Eric.“I have a problem with headaches,” I replied.“A headache is the same as a serious problem. That's right?" said Eric, “I can also guess that you have a stomach ache too.”"That's right," I replied.Eric then opened his desk drawer. He seemed to be picking up something like a cigarette. I know what it is. Then Eric turned it on, inhaled deeply, and exhaled slowly. His distinctive aroma immediately burst into the workspace."This is what you need, isn't it?" said Eric as he handed me the cigarette."That's right," I replied. "Tur

After finishing taking care of all the needs of Gabriella's arrival to Surabaya, I said goodbye to Brother Eric. I thanked him and told him I had an appointment elsewhere. Of course, I didn't say who I promised."Is by helping you I have become your inner circle?" asked Eric."I think so," I replied."Wow, that's cool," Eric responded, "I'll try to help as much as I can."“Thanks, Eric,” I said, “you are a reliable ally. Now, I have another appointment elsewhere.”"Okay. Good luck to you," said Eric.After meeting with Eric, I immediately went to Donnie's recording studio. There, of course, I picked up Zoey. And coincidentally, the recording process had just finished."Langley!" said Donnie, who was walking with Zoey, “Calliope is really amazing. This way, we can advance the schedule earlier. We will adjust promotions, introductions, concert schedules, and so on."I saw Zoey smiling happily.

After chatting a lot with Donnie, I drove Zoey aka Calliope back to his secret apartment. Throughout the trip, Zoey kept expressing her admiration for me. Zoey is amazed to learn that I am a descendant of a hero.In fact, Donnie is not the only one who idolizes my grandfather. So am I. I want to be a liberator like Bradley.After dropping Zoey back at her apartment. I returned home to Certajava. I suddenly remembered the members of the band Ryg's – my band before The Boumerank. It seemed interesting chatting with them.I then took out my cell phone and called Big K. After small talk, I asked what they were doing and where."Where are you?" I asked.“In Inferno, Bro,” Big K replied."What are you guys doing there?" I asked.“Practice,” Big K replied."I'm heading there," I said."We'll be waiting for you," Big K replied.I crossed Dharma Hoover's busy road as usual. Understandably, apa

"You still remember our songs, apparently," said Big K."Of course I still remember it," I said. "How could I forget after all the years we've been together.""Shall we continue this meeting with a drink," Cole suggested.“I agree,” said Big K and Santos."How about you Lang?" asked Cole.Considering I've smoked pot and drank with Donnie before, I think I'd like to quit. But because it was my friends who invited me, I couldn't refuse."Okay, I'm coming," I agreed.Night began to envelop Certajava. After buying some liquor, we gathered at our usual place – a middle eastern restaurant that had closed due to bankruptcy.Before I put down my ass, I saw the same black Toyota Avanza that I had met in Dharma Hoover Street this noon, parked in front of us across the street. I threw away my negative thoughts and started to enter the arena.Big K then gave me a shot. Its volume contains mixed liquor—vodka a

The next day, I woke up in my room. After cleaning up, I met my mother who was watching television as usual. This time, my mother's eyes looked serious, not as empty as before. I was curious, wanting to know what mother was watching.Apparently, there was a rebroadcast of the 'In-Depth with Aaliyah' interview program in the  Indonesia News Channel or INC, Indonesia's biggest news media.In-Depth with Aaliyah was the most well-known interview program because it presented intersecting parties in a single case. The program itself was managed by the beautiful and intelligent host Aaliyah Situmorang.Due to the broad reach of the INC, the parties involved were often attended to share their views. In my opinion, they just wanted to be close to Aaliyah.Oh yeah, by the way, Aaliyah was an Arab or Indian or Pakistani. I had no idea. To be sure, Aaliyah's nose was sharp, and she was not wearing a hijab.That live interview program broadcast itself was
