ARAKAS

Chapter 35

"Well, record everything you wrote on the board. Remember, your grades will be reduced if someone does not take notes" said Ms. Tin, a biology teacher, an unmarried middle-aged woman.

Manda nudged Laras who was reading comics in his desk drawer. His friend is a wayward. Not a lesson, busy yourself. Laras remained unconscious until Manda elbowed him.

Manda's gaze then moved to Ara who was sitting in the back. He was stunned for a moment. For a few days he noticed that his friend looked different. After remembering again, from yesterday Ara had never skipped from the lesson hours not even slept in class.

If she wasn't Ara Manda wouldn't be surprised. But this, yesterday he didn't notice when Adit and Kevin said Ara now rarely truant for fear of getting punished. Now he just noticed.

Manda nudged Laras again.

"Ouch! What the hell?"

"Liat tuh." said Manda pointed to Ara who was busy taking notes. Laras stopped reading it and took a glance back.

"He's possessed by a diligent ghost?" whispered slowly. Manda laughing. Basic Barrel. Still think he said it like that.

"Room, Manda. Once again you guys are making a fuss, get out of my class!" ma'am Tin from behind.

"Yes ma'am, I'm sorry." replied Manda lowered her head.

"Who's picket today?" asked Bu Tin again glanced at the entire class.

"I'm the same Ara ma'am." replied Adit. As the class leader, he must respond quickly. He thinks.

Bu Tin glanced at Ara who seemed to be unaware of her name. The girl kept taking notes seriously. Even the biology teacher was astonished to see Ara's change. Isn't that girl just playing tricks? There was no way Ara's calf would change that quickly.

"Ara, you're the one who went photocopying my book."

Being still unconscious, Kevin who was sitting behind Ara elbowed the girl slowly.

"Ra, Miss Tin call me tuh. I'm gonna send you a copy of the book."

Ara looked forward. He did not answer directly. Photocopy book? Why should he? There will be Adit their class leader who is always loyal if you want to be told by the teacher. Adit is also a picket today. There are others too. He looked around. All his friends are busy taking notes.

Yes it is. With a heavy heart he received at all the same Mrs Tin.

Ara stood lazily to the teacher's desk in front.

"You photocopied pages 115 to 235, as many as the number of students in this class, then the book returned to the mother immediately. Be careful, this book is no longer published." after explaining at length, ms. Tin then handed the book to Ara carefully as if handing over an heirloom object that if not carefully could be destroyed so fragile.

Ara then stepped out, walking into the photocopying room leisurely while whistling.

"Where are you going?"

the voice stopped his steps. Ara looked back for a moment and saw that Karrel was already standing nearby with his two hands loyal in his pants pocket.

"Copying room. You alone?" sahut Ara then asked.

Karrel did not reply, just continued to stare at the girl.

"Why, is there something on my face?" ask Ara again.

"You know where the photocopy room is?" instead of answering, Karrel asked.

"That's why don't be truant. Next time use the time skipping you hafalin all the places in this school." chirped the guy. If he hadn't met the girl here, surely Ara wouldn't have gotten to the end of the photocopy room. People say the direction is wrong.

"What's wrong?" Ara still could not believe that she was wrong.

"Follow me." said Karrel without replying to Ara's words.

Now Karrel is leading the way. Arriving in a room, the man turned his back to look at Ara.

"This is the photocopy room" Karrel said, pulling Ara's hand inside.

"Where's the book" said Karrel again. Ara then gave the book in her hand to Karrel very carefully. He remembered that Mrs Tin had given him the warning to be careful.

"What page?"

"115 to 235. As many as the number of students in my class." replied Ara. Karrel looked at the girl waiting for the girl to speak again. But he had waited long enough, Ara there was no sign of speech. The guy then pinched Ara's head slowly.

"Well, why else." said Ara while rubbing her head and staring at Karrel.

"How many students are in your class?" karrel.

"Three four!" sahut Ara ketus's. Karrel chuckled, ruffled the girl's hair and ordered a photocopy of the officer.

Ara chose to sit on an empty chair with her mouth muttering. He won't make any calculations with that guy because he's been helping him. If Karrel didn't show you the way, how about a try? He can get lost!

He looked at the room and held every object he saw interesting. That habit also causes him to be often seen by officers in shops or shopping centers. Not buying, but holding all the stuff. Mending if the last one bought one seed. Ara is relaxed even if it is not bought. He's a regular.

Thirty minutes later the photocopy was complete. Since the photocopying pile was also numerous, Karrel helped Ara carry it. Ara deliberately gave the original book to Karrel so that the boy could be taken. He wasn't sure if the book would still be intact in his hands. So he asked Karrel for help.

In the middle of the road, they cross paths with Wulan. The girl approached them.

"Hi Rail, photocopied out, huh?" tanyakanya.

Ara grunting. I know it! Don't you see in Karrel's hands full of photocopied paper?

As if hearing Ara's words spoken in her heart, Wulan turned her head towards the girl. He glanced dislike. Ara replied by throwing her face away and walking first.

"Ara, slow down. You want jatoh?" karrel. The man followed Ara, ignoring Wulan who was talking to him.

Wulan could only clench her hands looking at the departure of the two people. He feels jealous.

"Till here. I can go in by myself." said Ara when they got to the front of her class. He does not want his friends to see Karrel and tease him again.

"You sure?"

"M."

"Yes already. Don't sleep in class, study hard let pinter." Karrel ruffled Ara's hair softly before turning away.

Ara herself immediately looked at the left-right side. He then breathed a sigh of relief because no one had seen Karrel's treatment of him earlier. How come he so feel again dating secretly the same guy well.
