The Rumors

Jenny and Celyn were timid as they sitting at the backseat. The deafening silent of the sorrounding could not make any disturbance to the sleeping peace that they have that time. Marcus who where driving the car was still focused his eyes toward the road which going darker.

An minutes were passed and they looked like an enemy that did not wanted to talk on each other. They were all timid that time. The car moved faster and every rocky road that the car passed through made the heart of Celyn to pops out.

"Peeepppp,... peeeppp" the busy buses and cars made the three to stare at the outside. Celyn stared at Marcus as she spoke, " Marcus, ahmm can you please take me at the front gate of my house... I needed to look for my necklace because I do believe that I will rather find it for a short period of time ... Maybe, I lost it when I change my clothes"

Marcus sudden give a glanced toward the two young lady at his back and stared at Celyn. Marcus wearing his smiled, and he removed his right hand at the car's handlebars and raised it to make an thumbs up to tell that he approved the wish of Celyn about taking her at home.

They were at close upon the home street of Celyn as they sudden they negotiated about the trip that their group going to do. Celyn was quiete-minded as she sat closer to Jenny.

Jenny break out the silence that happened between them as she felt that no body wanted to make a first moved out of that deafening silence.

Jenny was shamefaced to start the conversation between Marcus and her, because at that moment she was aware on the situation that Celyn might thinking and experience that time.

She caught the attention of Marcus who sudden whistled his lips to produced a non lyrical sounds while driving.

" Ahmm, Marcus!" Jenny faint-voice as she called the attention of Marcus.

"Yes" Marcus sudden responded while looking at the front mirror of the car.

" Ahmm, what hour did you prepared to go at University tomorrow?" Jenny asked with blushing on her face.

Marcus secretly smiled while rearing at Jenny and Celyn. He made a sweet grinned before he answered Jenny's question.

" Ahmm, as far as I know, Ken will called us before the meeting will held, and... I think that today, they are convincing Jasmine to with us for the substituted of Celyn, however, because we already know that Celyn will be excluded to our trip... I will be with you or else I will call you first before the meeting and also before the trip" the buckished stated of Marcus.

Jenny noded her head as he heard Marcus all told. At that moment, Celyn break the conversation of two to give way her opinion about the trip.

" You know, I have something that I observed at our group... "

Celyn stated. Jenny felt wondered as she heard that words coming from Celyn." What observation Celyn?" Jenny asked in marvelled.

She first departed from the shoulder of Jenny because at that moment she was leaning at her shoulder. Celyn sat properly and continued what she wanted to convey toward her observation.

"Ahmm as I observed, Ken and Claire had something that hide on us, maybe they had plan or maybe they want to find something that exception to what our group needed to reach out"

As she continued, she billowed her eye brows and shrugged.

" What do you think so?" Celyn asked

Marcus sudden think of the words that Celyn told to them and he made his observation for that things happening around.

" Actually, you are right, I did not know why Ken and Claire choose to make a proposal without us and they wanted to be together even we are they members too, I had a concievably bad things on their action... however I had no rights to think it because I'm just a member" Marcus stated.

Jenny shook her own's head as she sudden cut in the discussion of Celyn and Marcus. "Ahmmm, guys why don't you look at the good side of their action? Yes maybe Claire become so annoying on the part that she make me so bad, however, we know how good follower she is toward Ken...and, we already know how Ken become better leader on us for almost a year and I have no things that able to tell at both of you that they had bad intention on us" Jenny stated.

Marcus admired how Jenny looked toward Ken and Claire because even him could not hide his madness toward them that might lead on his thinking about the two. He felt embarrassed as he heard that kinds of words on Jenny so he could not make any moved and choose to focus on what he doing.

Celyn stared at Jenny in wondered," Jenny are you dead serious huh? You did not know the secret that the two bastard may hide on us!" Celyn argued at Jenny.

" Hysttttt" Jenny kept on breathing so deep as she heard that words to her own best friend.

"..." Jenny was speechless for a moment and shrugged her shoulder for a minute of pause.

As Celyn continued, she shrinked her forehead and spoke again.

" Jenny, please be observatived okay!" Celyn uttered.

" But!, Celyn we are not the same, we are different from perception and how we look at someone...and whether good or bad their intention will be, I know that my reason is enough to continue believing that the research that we aiming to do will be the key to full fill the hearsays and also to know the fact... Celyn...I do believe that the research that we gonna do is able to change our life for a reason... Successfully or not! and you know why I do pursued to join? Because of you, I wanted to find your own family without the used of the necklace that you lost... Celyn...we our the owner of our own destiny..and as your friend, both of us will make it!" She stated

Celyn become timid as she heard the opinion of Jenny, however Marcus still listening at the two." Ahmmm okay, but...Jen why you wanted to help me? Celyn wondering asked

Jenny smiled and stared at Celyn as she spoke with gentle voice." Celyn, you are my friend and as I heard everything about you moment ago, I sudden think that you needed to find your true family and ... because you are left behind because of your situation, and I already prepared myself to full fill the dream that you wanted...I'm willing to write your destiny by my own pen" Jenny meaningfully stated toward Celyn.

Celyn could not make any moved as she heard how Jenny become good at her. She stared on Jenny and embraced her so tight. Jenny also embraced her friend and smiled each other. Marcus witnessed how the two friends become so sweet as like a true sisters that time.

After a moment of pause,Marcus cut in the intimate situation that happened inside his car as he sudden park the cars at the front of Celyn house.

" Hey Celyn, Jenny, can I interrupt your sweetness" Marcus uttered.

Jenny and Celyn departed on each other and stared at Marcus. " Ohh! I did not know the time hhehehe!" Celyn stated with a smiled on her lips.

Marcus get out the car and opened the door to guide Celyn. Jenny helped Celyn to take her all things inside the car. As the things were at the ground at the front of the Celyn's gate, Jenny called the attention of Celyn to tell something that might encourage her to pursue something interesting as the time that they were at the forbidden forest to conduct the research about the rare plants that only found inside that forest.

"Celyn, keep on being better, ahmm about your necklace, whether you find it or not, your destiny will take you on your way, so if you are willing to spend your time finding it and you couldn't find it...all I want to tell you is...keep on fighting, and don't forget to wear your smile!" Jenny uttered as she pointed her lips to encourage Celyn to smile.

"Thank you Celyn for being good friend, someday, I will make a way to help you too, even my life will be the sacrifice, I will not making a doubt to do it for you my friend, I love you Soo much darling!" Celyn uttered with teary eyes.

"Ahhhhhh!! It's too sweet Celyn, I appreciated it you know!" Jenny responded with teary eyes same like Celyn.

Marcus opened the gate of Celyn house and took the things of Celyn inside the home and the two friend were trying to say goodbye to the last moment that they will be together that moment.

Marcus came out in the house of Celyn and go back to his car and sit again at the driver seat. He started again the car and the sound of the machine heard along the silent place where Celyn standing. But before Marcus and Jenny arrived, Jenny looked at the opened window of the car and waved her hands toward Celyn. Marcus stared again to Celyn and sudden waved his potent hands even he was holding the handlebars of the car.

" Good luck! " Celyn shouted while continue waving her hands toward Jenny and Marcus as she saw the car was moving away from her.

" Stay safe and wear your smile honey!' Jenny uttered while making an flying kiss toward Celyn. Celyn stopped waving her hand and stared at the car which finally vanished at the din corner of the place. Her smiled begun to replace by sadness as she entered again her home. Every moment that she encountered a moment ago sudden emerged on her mind. She quickly opened the front door and switched on all lights. The whole place enlighten again and the cold ambience of the night breeze embraced her body as she opened the door. The things that she left in the morning was the same things that she saw again as she stepped again on her home.

She picked all things that Marcus brought a moment ago and carried then inside their home

She removed her shoes and put it at the left corner of the room and suddenly climbed up to the stair and the only things that she wanted to do was to find the necklace around. She changed her clothes and she sudden remember her black cap. She was so mad on herself because in one day passed in her life she lost the two most important things that she had.

She hanged her sling bag at the cabinet and walked toward her bed and she felt the softness of the bed that touched her tired body. She felt the pain of being lonely for her favorite things and she wanted to find it but the coldness of the sorrounding and the warmth of the bed made her to make some rest. Her eyes were tired enough to flow some tears and her heart was tired also in beating fast. Her soul wanted some rest and her mind seemed like telling her to make an exploration on her dream.

She laid on the bed and took the soft pillow beside her and embraced it tightly. A moment passed ago and her eyes where sudden closing as being sleepy and fatigue that time. She was thankful because she could spent a lot of time at herself and she had too much time to find her necklace inside her room and every corner that her home had to find it in the very short period of time. She fighting her eyes to close but her body as giving up itself to make something rather than making a long and deep sleep again.
