[Can you help me to forget it?]
[W-you mean?]
[Ah, I mean… I hope you can be my healer.]
He only replied with a smile symbol that he sent through the media. Yes, I hope he is the right person at this time to complete the day.
I feel more and more able to live life since Lucifer accompanied my days. Now I feel close to him. In fact, our chat switched to a green application which only included the closest people. Always get a morning greeting, ask how you are doing and activities every day.
This morning I was at school because on this day the last performance that had been planned was now going to be held. Even though only the organizers and performers were present due to limitations in order to stay away from the crowd, it did not hinder the event. Sounds less fun, but this is one way to keep the annual agenda going. The committee will provide a live-streaming link for others so they can watch the event live at their respective homes.
My cell phone rang, it was Lucifer who called me. What is it? It's a shame he called me so early in the morning. I immediately answered the call from Lucifer.
"Hello?"
"Good morning, Anna!" Lucifer's voice was greeting the other side.
"Morning, Lucifer. What are you calling me so early?"
"I just want to say cheers to the Kaka Committee."
"Which committee?"
"The one who asked!"
“S-you mean me?”
"Yes. Who else but you? There's no one I know there but you."
It feels like I want to fly when I hear his sweet words when heard. I couldn't help but smile, unable to say anything else. Lucifer is too perfect for me. Men who are loved by many women in cyberspace, especially in the real world.
"Why are you silent, Anna?"
My thoughts were interrupted when Lucifer spoke from the other side. Ah! Seriously. Why am I even thinking about it?
“N-it's okay, Lucifer. Well then, I'll continue with my activities, okay..."
"Yes, cheers!"

It was quite tiring to be a team that organizes all events. We have to pay attention to everything. In terms of time, appearance, preparation and so on. However, I still enjoyed it. I haven't felt fatigue in a long time, which I think has a lot of fun in it. Especially if you add that you have received a piece of speech from Lucifer this morning.
Finally, the event was over. We all immediately collapsed and fell on the floor. This is how it is. If you are very tired, the floor will be used as a mattress. Sounds weird if someone falls asleep on the floor. But this is how it is, it's no longer surprising.
Because of the busy school schedule. I found information from the class group that tomorrow there will be final exams for the twelfth graders. Kill me! I was forced to have the intention of being lazy tomorrow. I immediately approached Carla to talk about this.
"Carl, is this serious?" I asked while holding out my cell phone to show the information circulating in the class group.
Cough!
Carla, who was drinking a glass of water, immediately choked when she saw the information. Apparently, he didn't know either. The response even surpassed mine.
Carla suddenly looked at me with a panicked look. You can see the pupils of his eyes widen. Not out of joy, but not out of surprise. Then, he directly slapped his forehead with his bare hands.
"Oh my God... how sad for the twelfth class of this damn virus class." said Carla, resigned to the situation.
"Yes, it can't be helped. It's part of destiny, Carl."
Carla looked at me deeply, "You are ready for tomorrow's exam, Na?"
Suddenly I spun the ball, lazy. Carla just doesn't know me. Do I look so relaxed that Carla seems to think I've prepared for it?
"According to you?"
Carla was silent, contemplating how she could face the exam tomorrow to the best of her ability. Obviously, the question I asked was just ignored. Then Carla grabbed my hand and pulled me up.
"Let's go to the bookstore now!" Carla walked over and grabbed my hand.
I had rebelled, he was obsessed with the value. "Carl, we haven't evaluated this event yet." I said as I tried to free Carla's grip from mine.
"This is not the time for us to think about school events, Na. What we have to think about now is the test. After all, there is an OSIS administrator in charge here. Our position is only to help, right, Na?”
Carla was right. I immediately agreed to his invitation to go to the bookstore.
"Okay, let's get the bag. After that, I said goodbye and went straight to the bookstore.”

On the way to the bookstore, Carla kept talking about how the exams were going to be tomorrow. While the schedule has not been shared by the school. Obviously, it made us students confused which one to study first.
We arrived at one of the shopping centers in the city. There is a large and super complete bookstore. Before we entered, we had to test the temperature first to meet the criteria for visitors who must comply with health protocol regulations, not forgetting to wash their hands and wear masks.
We arrived at the bookstore on the fourth floor. This bookstore was pretty quiet, in fact it was clear that more people would rather wait in line to watch a movie than visit there.
Carla's eyes immediately fell on the textbooks in preparation for the exam. Fearing that the notes were incomplete, Carla decided to buy a new book. Yes, Carla is known as an ambitious person about grades, she is very generous and doesn't think long about spending her money on studying.
“Anna, which one did you buy?” Carla asked, her eyes still focused on the books she was about to buy.
I shook my head, "I won't buy one."
Carla suddenly turned to me, "why? No money? Just take it, I'll pay for it."
"Hey! Embarrassing. It's not that you don't have money. But I guess it's useless. The book won't make me understand. It only adds to the headache of my brain. So I ask you just about today what is important from the books you bought for tomorrow's exam."
Carla's head bobbed. Thank goodness he understood. I'm not really the type of student who likes to read textbooks. The books I read are only about novels, comics and motivational books.
I walked over to the novel shelf, and I saw a lot of the latest releases that were selling well. Honestly, I'm very interested in some of these novels. The story I read about a wealthy businessman.
After I read the synopsis, I wanted to have a husband like him. Oh s**t! My soul stirred again. But I can stand it, now is not the right time to buy novels, because I have to focus on exams.
After everything was finished, Carla and I immediately approached the payment place. But suddenly I saw Carla's panicked face staring at me.
Carla whispered something in my ear, “Damn! I left my wallet at school!”
“WHAT?!”
