A Gift for Lala

Ten - A Proposal

Today I was taken back to school by Mr. Ali. For this, I chose to give up on Mama. At the very least, this will not add to the conflicts with Mama.

"Lala, starting tomorrow afternoon you've started piano lessons again. Mama has a private teacher. Dear yesterday if not continued." My feet immediately limp. Studying piano? Why does my mom remember it too.

"Kok learn again Mam, it was yesterday already," I said in a limp tone.

"La, if you learn not half. Yesterday Mama did not see any specialties in your game. So you have to study again."

"But Mam... Lala also participated in the school's choir exkul."

"Good it!"

Ha's? How the hell is Mama? Even say good. Though I mean let Mama allow me not to teach piano anymore. Huft... I decided not to continue with my words. It's free. My mother will not listen to my words. For now I choose the rules of the game Mama. But I'll still do what I love, which is write.

As usual, I asked Mr. Ali to drop me off some distance from school. Indeed some days A'am no longer pick me up after the events of that time.

School is not too crowded. I put down my bag and was just about to sit when I heard my phone ring. I immediately pulled out the phone from the bag. I saw a foreign number go into the Whats up application.

"Morning La... How's it? Are you starting to write? (Trian)."

I smile. Trian sent a message via Whats up just asking that? Oh yes, yesterday after chatting he did ask for my mobile number. So attention is a child. But from yesterday I haven't seen a photo of a doi. In his whats up account is also not a human photo. But a picture of Patrick the starfish. Wtf, I don't mind that. This is better.

I immediately pressed my phone button to reply to Trian's chatt.

"For jg, again think of his idea. Got ideas?"

A few minutes later, Trian did not reply. Huh.this is typical. I like to say that. Fuck up!

Shortly after, the class started to get crowded. As usual, I still haven't had the initiative to talk to other friends. I saw Heina and Pipin joking around with Aldi, Aris and Dion. I want to join in there but it's hard to do that. As usual, I was confused as to what to say to go there.

A few minutes passed, A'am had not yet seen the trunk of his nose. He's my only savior.

"Tumben you're alone, A'am where?" Yola greeted me as the girl placed her bag on the bench next to me.

"I don't know" I replied short.

Then he asked A'am the same as me. In my heart I was nervous too. Until now the silly guy has not come too.

"Don't know? Freaky... Usually nempel keep like a stamp." Yola glanced at me somewhat shirkily. I don't know what that means. Is it possible that he's still feeling jealous of me since Saturday's basketball practice?

"Yola... Wanted..." Ririn screams at the door. I look over there. Fadley! Huh... It looks like that guy likes Yola. Almost every day this girl is getting diaperin. Look, Yola is smiling sweetly at Fadly. I also saw that cute, arrogant guy approaching our bench.

"Hi La... come to Ganis' birthday?"

"hey are. Cook didn't come anyway? Kali's loss..." Yola's spoiled voice sounded like it was insinuating me. But I'm sure it's just my feeling. I pretended to be busy writing but my ears remained fixed on the chatter of Yola and Fadly.

"That means you want to come with me?"

"Np... Yes, no papa if they also want to follow," finally Fadly relented. Yeah, well, there's no way she's turning down Yola's request. Especially with that sound.

When Fadly left I saw Ririn and Reni laughing cheerfully after knowing Yola's decision.

"La! How quiet is that? Uh, how's Dilan?" Heina. I just found out that Heina is an infotainment maniac. He loves to ask questions about the artists of the capital.

"Ouch... Sory Hen, I haven't heard." My lies. Though I have absolutely no idea how to contact Dilan and the others.

"Yes... No papa. Maybe someday I can." I smiled at him. And at this moment, my eyes caught a figure that had recently made me smile. Juno! What's the matter with him here? Who's he looking for? But... Oh, my God, he's headed this way... To bangkuku.

"Hello Lala..." Sapa Junot's. Heina glanced at me and smiled meaningfully.

"Hi." Finally, this mouth made a sound.

"Where are you?" Junot asked me with his wry head looking for A'am. A'am again! Must be because of him.

"Not yet came. Ng... Just waiting for."

"Eh... Ng... Gini La." Strange this guy. How a groggy Junot in front of me.

"Why?" I saw Junot still chirping. I could see Junot's eyes glancing at Yola. I don't know Yola's face right now. Is he getting jealous?

"Np... You want me to go to Ganis' birthday?"

The deg!

My heart stopped falling. What was my dream last night? I was hoping Junot would get along with me. But not so far. I mean, I was invited to be his partner to Ganis' birthday? I don't even know who Ganis is.

"Cieee..." Heina who was still around me immediately teased me. And I can see Junot being misbehaved. I can hardly believe this. The disaster I thought would happen to me when I moved to Semarang turned into a beautiful dream. Eh. no! This isn't a dream. It's real!

"Np... La Gimana. Wanna?"

"Np... I. i..."

"Udah. I want to La." The loud voice of Heina invited all eyes to our direction. Not long after that one class started to break out. Oh, my God, I don't know what to do. I didn't expect a Junot to pick me among all the girls who might secretly like him.

With a shy smile, I finally nodded. Junot smiled then left me without forgetting to ask for my phone number.

"Viiihhh... Lala's great..."

"Gee... New rumors!" sahut Pipin's.

I myself am not fully aware. I feel like I just had a dream.
