"Hmm. Try it if you meet my brother. You've never met him, so it's best not to judge before you meet him."remarks Amelie.
I didn't expect much, afraid of disappointment, but honestly, my feelings right now were like fireworks exploding in my chest, filled with excitement as if I had just won a grand prize.
"Your brother's name is Sebastian?"I asked to make sure to come back, just to make sure I didn't hear wrong.
Amelie nodded. "Yes, his full name is Sebastian Watter! My brother is a nice guy, but if he's nosy, well, don't ask, El. His nosiness is unmatched!"Amelie shook her head as she pretended to put on a dizzy face.
Instantly, a ray of hope lit up in my heart again. I should have guessed from the start. From the similarity of Amelie's taste in clothes with her brother, all the clues actually led to it. I'm the only one who doesn't think far ahead. Well, El... how can you be so innocent!
"Why, El? What is possible ... Don't you know my brother?"Amelie looked at me intently.
"Hey, I just found out that he's your brother. We met at the closing ceremony of induction week during the night cruise, not when you had stomach cramps..."I explained to Amelie,' your brother is on the committee, he said he was an invited guest ..."
Amelie paused for a moment. "Oh my God, do you believe what he says? Oh, my God, it's just fashion! He just wanted to spy on me. Sucks! Hence, from the very beginning I agreed to enter here on the condition, he must not reveal that I am his sister! I'm lazy if I'm treated differently just because my brother Sebastian is a college idol."
"Your brother is an idol? He's Smart, isn't he?"From the beginning, Sebastian did look like a smart and charismatic figure. I'm pretty sure he's not a bad guy.
"Smart? Yes, he's smart, but he's actually lazy to learn. Swear God, this is so weird and almost absurd, he rarely studies, but his grades are always good!"Amelie rolled her eyes.
"That's a genius, Amelie... Although he rarely studied, he was still smart and intelligent."
I was reminded of my old self, a long time ago, I also used to be called a genius, just heard once and immediately could, although rarely learned.
"What! Genius? No kidding, El!"Amelie burst out.
I laughed a little when I saw Amelie who seemed to have had enough of hearing the word " genius."Duh, El, don't let my brother hear he's being praised a genius by a girl as beautiful as you. His nose will fly!"
We both laughed amused. It was unimaginable if Sebastian's sharp nose suddenly flew out of nowhere.

Today I promise to have dinner with Sarah at a restaurant that is famous for its signature dishes and unique, Teras Senja restaurant. The restaurant is almost always full when dinner time comes. I waited for half an hour, but Sarah didn't come. Some customers have started queuing waiting for an empty table. I tried calling and texting, but Sarah didn't respond. Feelings of anxiety begin to appear. Is there something going on?
When I was confused and overwhelmed with anxiety, my phone rang. I'll pick up the incoming call right away.
"Hello, where is Sarah?"I asked impatiently.
"El, I'm sorry, there is sudden news about Sylvia. I was on my way there with Denis," Sarah said, referring to one of Wonderland's employees who is often her personal driver. "I'm sorry, El... I forgot to tell you because it was so sudden."
I sighed slowly, "yeah, don't worry, it's okay. Be careful on the road, yeah. Let me know when you arrive."
"Okay, ready," Sarah replied before hanging up.
Finally, I decided to order dinner myself. While waiting for my order, I idly sent a message to Mr. B, aka Sebastian.
"Mr. B, What are you doing?"I wrote it and sent it immediately. After one, two, five minutes, my message had not been read. Maybe he's busy, I thought as I put the phone in the bag.
"Excuse me, miss, for interrupting your time for a moment," a restaurant employee greeted me with a slight bow.
"Yes, what is it?"I asked confused.
"Our restaurant was full, and there were some customers who were waiting for a table. Is Miss friend coming to dinner?"asked the clerk, pointing to an empty chair at my desk.
"My friend didn't come. What's the matter?"I looked at him, still confused.
"There were two customers waiting for an empty table. Are you willing to share a table?"the restaurant manager was a little hesitant. "If you don't want to, that's okay too."
I quickly replied, "No problem, go ahead."
The restaurant clerk smiled, "Thank you very much, miss. I will tell customers who want to share a table with you."
Before long, I heard the restaurant clerk talking to the customer who was going to share a table with me.
"Please, miss, this is the table I was referring to. The lady's friend didn't come, so there were two empty seats."
"It worked? Raveline?"a light pat on my shoulder made me reflexively turn my head quickly.
"Amelie?"I was surprised to see Amelie standing behind me.
The restaurant employee looked surprised, "Oh my God, so you two already know each other? Thank god, what a coincidence!"
"Ooh, so it's you, Mel who wants to share a table with me? Come on, let's get out of here ... sit down," I invite Amelie to sit down immediately. The restaurant officer immediately placed the menu book in front of Amelie.
"Didn't I tell you there were two of them, Ma'am? Who did you come here with?"I asked when I saw Amelie start choosing food.
"I did come in two, El," replied Amelie without taking her eyes off the menu.
Suddenly, the phone in my bag vibrated. Immediately I picked it up, and it turned out that a new message had come in.
"Hello Miss Rose ... I was having dinner with my sister. What are you doing yourself?"I was stunned, and soon Amelie resumed her speech.
"I'm here with my brother, El. Sebastian just went to the bathroom," Amelie said casually. "Well, look ... that's it, "he continued, waving his hand," here ... over here, over here!"
Within seconds, my brain and body seemed to freeze in place. I was both panicked and incredibly agitated.
