(May) I Fall in Love

Just Me

The students are busier than usual as they are preparing for various performances that they will be performing in the school anniversary event that will be in the degree in less than one week

There will be several activities that will be carried out, namely the exhibition of paintings from painting, fashion shows from exkul fashion designer, theater stage, dance stage, singing stage and so forth. For broadcasting, they will work with several private TV stations to broadcast the celebration. There will also be a donation event to several organizations that move to help children with cancer.

Teachers and students work together to make the event a success. Moreover, there will be special guests from among businessmen and even officials who will be an invitation on the big day.

For the interior design of the event, Nevan became the chairman responsible for handling it. If usually handsome teenagers are always seen indifferent to any activity. Different is now. Nevan is very enthusiastic to design interior design as attractive as possible and certainly has a high aesthetic value. Because he likes the field so much.

Of course Nevan cooperates with some professional interior design. It is not difficult for him to be able to work with professional people because the connections owned by the Sander family are very much both in the country and abroad.

For several days Nevan continued to be busy doing several meetings with people he would be invited to work with. Nevan's figure seemed to turn one hundred and eighty degrees. She is not like the seventeen-year-old who usually likes to bother Haura. But he is like an adult man who can work professionally.

The interaction between Nevan and Haura was also slightly reduced than usual. They only have time to talk during class hours, and go and go to school. The rest of them are busy with their own activities.

If Nevan is preoccupied with his creative ideas, then Haura is busy preparing for the theater stage with a theater group. They will perform a theatrical performance “Alice In The Wonderland.”

Don't think that Haura will be the main character, Alice. Wrongfully. Haura will play the role of “White

Rabbit”. The white rabbit character who lured Alice into a rabbit hole in the Alice In The Wonderland series.

******* 

“Where is your theater preparation?” nevan asked Haura on the sidelines of him riding a motorcycle. Now

here they're heading towards home. At times like this, they have time to talk.

“Everything's smooth. Hopefully there are no obstacles whatsoever when the performance later. Honestly I am very nervous,” replied Haura. Now Haura placed her chin right on Nevan's shoulder so that the man could hear her words.

"Why nervous?"

"How not to be nervous, there will be many pairs of eyes that will see it. I'm afraid to make mistakes and mess things up." Haura imagined what it would be like if their staging failed.

"You don't have to be nervous because you're not alone. You and the others are a team and don't be burdened with negative thoughts that are not necessarily going to happen" Nevan said trying to give peace to Haura.

Hearing Nevan's words, Haura seemed to find the other side of her best friend. How can Nevan who usually speaks unfaithful things be as wise as now.

“What will you show?”

“Alice In The Wonderland.”

“Keep you into what character?” ask Nevan again. Either out of curiosity or just a question.

“I will play the role of White Rabbit,” Haura said confidently.

"Upsss. Haura should not have told Nevan what role she would play in the theatrical performance. The main reason was because after this Haura was very confident that Nevan would definitely tease her again.

“Why should white Rabbit?”

“Because that character is suitable for me. Anyway, I might be Alice. Alice should be beautiful. Not someone like me." Haura was very self-aware that she was very unfit to be the lead.

“I didn't say you had to be Alice,” Nevan said with a smile. “In my opinion, there is one character that is suitable for you.” Nevan said by emphasizing the word most in order to convince Haura that the character was indeed worthy to be played by Haura.

“What character, Van?” Haura was really curious about the character Nevan was referring to.

“Absolem the Caterpillar. The blue caterpillar. I think that's the most fitting character for you.” After saying that, Nevan laughed loudly. “You are short, small, so you are suitable to act as a caterpillar.”

As Haura suspected, Nevan's nosy nature began to On.

“Ihhh. Always make me short. If you want to, you act as a caterpillar. Caterpillar Feathers more precisely.” said Haura with a bent face.

“Where might I be a caterpillar. My good looks are only suitable for princely characters,” Nevan said with his arrogance.

"There's no way the prince of darkness has good looks like me. Good looks that can balance Korean boy band."

Haura just rolled her eyes hearing Nevan's words. It's true that his best friend is handsome. But there is no need to be so arrogant.

“How come, why are you angry? I'm just saying the fact that my dwarf is indeed short.”

“Your dwarf?” asked Haura astonished.

“Iya, you are my dwarf, Haura.” Nevan turned around for a few seconds. His brown bead was saturating with Haura's black bead. Their gazes were so close because right now haura's face was on Nevan's shoulders. The handsome teenager gave a warm smile to Haura then refocused his eyes on the streets.

Haura again had to neutralize her recent heartbeat racing three times faster when she saw Nevan's smile. Haura could have a heart attack at a young age if Nevan often smiled sweetly at her.

“Haura..” Nevan's voice resuscitated Haura who was pensively behind Nevan.

“Emmmm...” Haura simply muttered in response to Nevan's call.

“What's up, Van?” Haura asked after waiting for a while, but Nevan said nothing

after calling his name.

“Nothing. I called you because I thought you were silent because you turned into a caterpillar... Hahahaha Again Nevan teases Haura.

“Awww..pain, Ra. Why am I in the pinch?” nevan protested when he felt a pinch on his waist.

“Biarin, it's wrong of you to say I'm a caterpillar.”

“Partially you are silent anyway. I feel like a motorcycle taxi driver who is carrying passengers. What else

you think?” Nevan turned back towards Haura.

“I no longer think of anything.” Haura was not thinking about anything. He kept quiet so his heart wouldn't rumble back.

“Why don't you think of anything? There should be something you think.”

“What should I think about?” Haura did not understand what Nevan meant.

“I...” replied Nevan quickly. “You should think of me, handsome Nevan. Don't leave your mind blank, because I'm big enough to fill your mind.” After saying that Nevan rubbed Haura's head that had not moved from her shoulder with her left hand.

Haura refractedly kept her head away from Nevan's shoulders.

"Jasmine...."

Silent. No answer at all. Actually Haura heard Nevan calling her name, but the teenage girl pretended to care for her ears.

"You're still breathing, aren't you, Ra?"  nevan asked because Haura never answered his call.

"Emmmm.." Just the murmur Haura gave.

"You remember what I said well. Haura Annisa, you can only think of me. Just me." Nevan affirmed the final words on his remarks.

Only you? wh-wh-what for? Haura only dared to monologue with herself. He did not dare to ask the meaning of Nevan's words.

Nevan, without you asking for anything, I've been thinking about you a lot. Sometimes I am so scared of my own mind. If I can't stop thinking about you. Will you be kind enough to think of me too? Just me. Is possible? Inner Haura without daring to voice her heart.

No further conversation after that. Only silence and a gust of twilight wind accompanied the two teenagers throughout the rest of the journey.

Haura looked at Nevan's back. A speck of tears adorned the beautiful corner of Haura's eyes. I don't know what because, but right now Haura wants to cry.
