   Ben:" Yo! " A sudden appearance that could making anyone go scared including Ross Justin, who did jump on his spot. His mind taking time to understand the situation while Ben was busy laughing at his particular achievement.

  Ross:" Did anyone told you that you sounds like a donkey everytime you laughing? " Ben's parted lips freeze. The playful look on his face changed into offended one, his mischievousness in his eyes fading away.

   Ross:" No? Happy to be the first one. " He rolled his eyes, looking away.

   Ben:" Want a medal? " He mocked his friend unable to see the reason of the victory shining on his face.

  Ross:" You can give me one once I am done breaking in? " Curious washed over Ben and he immediately stepped closer to the man who was busy guessing the passcode of the door.

  Ben:" Breaking in? Why are we breaking in Ethan's apartment? Don't tell me you are planning to have a party while he is away? Or we are oh my my, are you planning to steal anything from his wardrobe? " He put his hand on Ross's shoulder.

  Ross:" What? Stop it. How can you think so weirdly? " He slap his hand away, again looking at the lock of the door.

  Ben:" Then why are we breaking in? Why isn't he back yet? " Ross ignored the curious man eating his brain.

  He pulled out his cellphone instead, opening a selfmade app that make the few digits of the lock shine colorfully.

  Ben:" Wow! Did you design it yourself? Is it registered? " He hush the man immediately.

  Ross:" what we are doing right now is purely illegal. " He stated taking away his cellphone and pressed those digits hearing a beep sound as the door opened.

  Ross:" It seems like a memorial date. " He addressed his thoughts while Ben put his hands in his pocket, a sigh leaving his lips.

  Ben:" It's surely is memory. " A sad smile forming on his lips as he look at Ross eye to eye.

  Ben:" it's his mother's death anniversary. " Ross, who was looking forward to hear the reason, his lips curved downward.

  Ben:" Ethan said, he lost the feeling of having a home after his mother died. Since then he has been moving here and there trying to find a place where he would feel as good as home. " Ben continued, leading the depressed environment forward.

  Ben:" Maybe having it as a passcode made him feel a bit at home. " He looked at the parted door, the inside was already dark and appeared gloomy.

  Ross:" Like her soul accompany him here. " Ben's eyes parted immediately as he glare at his friend.

  Ben:" Don't talk like this when we are breaking in the house in the middle of the night. She may be the Aunt I adored but clearly I don't wanna meet her like that. " He warned his friend, feeling goosebumps rising in his body.

  Ross:" You do have a life for a rich person. Running away from your own home and breaking into other's. " Ben look at him dumbfounded as he was studied like an open book.

  Ben:" Why would you think so? I didn't run away from anywhere. " He ignored Ross obvious expression and stepped in the apartment not forgetting to bump his shoulder into other's.

  Ross:" Actions speaks louder than words. " He stated in relatively low tone this time as they both get in the dark house, a total expected view.

   Ben:" Ethan and darkness are inseparable. " He aimed to turned on the lights but his hand was stopped by Ross.

  Ben:" What? " He looked at other one, his face partially visible due to darkness.

  Ross:" he is inside. " He exposed making Ben wore an indifferent look over his face.
