I saw him daydreaming in one of the school park benches that began to weathered, his ears were blocked by a white earphone that seemed to play a beautiful song. Don't blame me, if I'm currently fascinated by the sheer smile that happens to be imprinted there.
Aka Kalandra, I know her full name from the school mading that is always up to date about the stories in Persada High School. She's my classmate, my twin sister's boyfriend, and also the person I've liked for almost two years.
"Aksa!" that was how she was greeted by that jet-black long-haired girl, she walked up to him while publishing a smile. The curvature of his lips is beautiful like the sun, so warm and it is possible that the smile is able to melt the chunks of ice cubes in Aksa.
Look at! How can the guy return his big smile, then his warm hands that are currently stroking the long, fine hair of the girl. I really want to be Aluna. Even though, from the first time I inhaled a breath the first time, I had indeed become another herself. That girl I mean, my twin sister.
I did not take my eyes off this walnut, eyes that often let out crystal melts and eyes that bear witness to all the stories of my hope with Aksa.
"Well! Crazy lo ya, I find you everywhere it turns out here" Well, my name is Alana. Rhesa Alana Hanggini.
I grinned the horse, feeling innocent has troubled Zora. My best friend at Persada High School, he seemed annoyed with me. A beautiful girl with glasses, however, she is not a nerd like in a novel. Zora is more than a most wanted, one of the popular schoolgirls who often get extraordinary achievements. The exception in friendship, he prefers to go with a normal girl like me.
"Sorry, so follow the exkul modeling?"
I asked him, Zora nodded enthusiastically. Fits the face, and its body–goals. It is unfortunate if Zora does not join the exkul modeling, which became the achievement land of beautiful girls at Persada High School. Not like me who is lazy and totally inappropriate, I don't know how many times my mother persuaded me to join the exculpation.
"What about you, Al?"
"Gue didn't come, I've already listed the exkul mading" I said as I pulled his hand away from the back garden of the school, we walked through the already deserted classroom corridor. Understandably, school hours like this especially Friday when classes are dissolved early and there is only mandatory exkul modeling and scout exkul for tenth grade.
"Lo's been ngintipin Aksa with Luna again?"
I shook my shoulders casually, but the smile on my lips never faded. Can imagine, right? How I feel seeing people I like, happy of course. Although, she was the lover of Aluna– my twin sister who was born first and took all the genes from both papa and mama, except for the beautiful hazel-sliced eyes I had.
Even though our faces were like the same thing, I was different from Aluna who got everything. Aluna is like a magnet that can attract anything near her, and it has a field that is opposite of mine. If Aluna is the best, prettiest student, I'm the opposite.
"What used to be a prestige support for deketin him, continues now failed to move on dong. Huh, a little bit of your eyes. Every day ngintipin people dating mulu"
"Lo ate wrong? Crazy, Aksa is his love for Luna and vice versa. If I am still stubborn for Aksa defense, there is a swipe every day"
Zora laughed, "Eat him lo same Nathan anyway" I rolled my eyes lazy, always Nathan. Guys who are often in the spotlight at school, because of their mischief. Moreover, Nathan, is a famous gang leader whose members are average in stature and athletic. However, behave like Nathan except, Aksa of course. Ditching classes, not doing chores, smoking in the toilet cubicle or in the school rooftop was like a major task for Nathan and his gang.
"Once I'm with Nathan, my descendants are auto so badchildren all! I don't want to die young Zora!" The corner of my eye caught the person we were talking about had already emerged from the turn of the corridor.
We giggled amusedly, he was already like a demon, suddenly already darting rapidly behind us. As soon as he came, and grabbed my little shoulder, the smell of cigarette smoke instantly burst out in my nose.
"Ish, you're smoking, aren't you?"
I stayed away, not because I hated cigarettes. It's just, being lazy to deal with BP teachers or aides in every class. "Slow Lan, I'll give you the parfume import deh"
Jonah again grabbed my body, in the end I gave up. Letting the tall body embrace my shoulder, the three of us walked together to meet the already deserted corridors of the school.
"Can buy it yourself!" Jonah took a small look, smiling faintly.
"Lan, I'll pick you up tomorrow!" nathan said when we were almost in the modeling room. I shook my head, rejecting Nathan.
"But I don't accept rejection, seven o'clock the mall has to be ready!"
He just left, without looking back at me or Zora and I didn't expect it to be the last day I met him. Nathan moved to Milan, not knowing why. Am I sad? I don't know, obviously I feel something is missing from me.

Five years later...
"Al!"
The girl in formal clothes came out of her house in a hurry, busy lifting her cell phone that kept ringing. The atmosphere of the house is very crowded, people are busy installing decor. The couple who stood not far from Alana looked like the happiest couple.
"Loh, you work?"
Alana stops right in front of them, the corner of her eye accidentally catches Aksa. Still the same as five years ago, his heart was still pounding uncontrollably when faced with Aksa, his future sister-in-law now.
"Yes Lun, I'm sorry I couldn't help. Today there was a change of the main director in the office, so I'm really sorry" said Alana put on a guilty face, because indeed the girl who is now twenty-two years old was not lying.
Her twin sister nodded, not forgetting Luna's unchangeable smile made Alana feel even more guilty. "Judah I'm leaving first, Bye!"
Alana breathed a sigh of relief when she reached her car, she again managed to ignore Aksa. He did not want to ruin the relationship of the two just because of his unrequited feelings, may this time complain about missing Nathan? Alana never lies when she misses the guy who used to bother her.
