The exam was completed a week ago. Today is the first day Rasya will return to school. The arrival of Rasya by using a wheelchair to school makes one school crowded. That morning Rasya who was driven by a car to enter the field of football is enough to make people pay attention to them. Not to mention when Rasya was unloaded from the car along with the wheelchair. But the excitement did not only get there, the presence of Azka with a smile that expands on her face, moving with a relaxed movement that looks as if you are in a slow motion movement in the middle of a quiet soccer field is the only center of attention from all students of State High School 45 that morning.

“Welcome!” Azka said she welcomed Rasya who today started attending school after passing almost 3 months of self-study at home.
“Makasih” said Rasya while returning a smile on Azka's face.
“Makasih Om, Kak Rasya let Azka aja anter to class” he said to the driver who drove Rasya.
“Still Yes Deck Azka” said the driver
Azka rushed to stand behind the wheelchair, pushing her towards the flatter edge of the field. He slowly pushed the wheelchair. Occasionally Azka had to hold the wheelchair from the shocks of small rocks. As much as possible He moved it gently, as if Rasya's body was glass which with a slight rough movement would make him break just like that.
“Nothing do you push the wheelchair until class?” ask Rasya in the middle of their journey “Nnothing, why?” Azka asked as she looked down at Rasya from above
“That's the same as the people” he said as he pointed at the crowd in each class and then looked up to see the face of Azka from his wheelchair
“Just let everyone know, and you know, you are not alone. You still have me as your right foot” Azka said seriously
“No shame on the road with a guy like me?”
“Ngapain shy? If the road is the same guy does not wear clothes, then I can be ashamed” Azka chuckles
“Can aja you”
Azka kept walking pushing Rasya's wheelchair. Several times they were interrupted by their friends who passed by on a faster path. Arriving at the border of the basketball court and class IPA 1, Agil approached them both.
“Bro, welcome to school” said Agil stretching his hand as if asking for a hug.
“Apaan sih Gil” said Rasya hit Agil's stomach slowly
“Gue welcomes Lo Bro” Agil chuckles. He moved towards Azka, releasing the little girl's hand from the wheelchair's handle.
“Eh?”
“Let me change. It was enough that both of you became the center of attention of one school. No need to go!” said Agil while showing his typical grin
“Oh, okay deh” replied Azka. The three of them walk with Azka walking parallel to Agil. All the inhabitants of class IPA 1 and class IPA 2 poked out, Fabel, Doni, Salim, Adit, Wira, and Grace came out of the class approaching and greeted Rasya warmly. Not much different from the Agil style. Some guys from class XI IPA 2 also approached. You, Andri, Risky, and a few others.
“Deuuuh, Dek, very nyusulin gercep to field” said Ncy classmate Azka. Pita, Ana, Melisa, and Wede also giggled amusedly. Azka just nodded towards them.
“Kak, I'm going to class well. How to get Agil to his class?” he said he brought his head closer to Rasya's ears
“Yes, it's okay”
Azka turned to her class.
“Dek, if Rasya will not use fake legs?” tanya Ncy, who calls Azka Deck.
“Say later, not yet now. Her legs are also again ordered” Azka replied as she placed the bag on the table
“Crazy, salut anyway I am Lo Ka” said Wede
“Gue can not imagine if you do not give spirit to him. If I were so he I would be depressed lah” said Melisa exaggerated
“Hehehe, you guys. Rasya not only need the spirit of one person. But from us
all as his friend” said Azka wise sok
“But because of this accident, so plastered real well, how is this relationship child” said Pita smile
“Say Lo keki!” say Ncy while yelling at Pita's head
“Biarin!” he said while stroking the head that had been pulled by Ncy
“Hahahaha” they laugh.
“Ka, Rasya have entered?” asked Risa and Ocha at the same time approached the group of girls who were laughing.
“Udah, it's in his class” Azka replied stopping her laughter
“Pake wheelchair?” ask Ocha again
“Heem” replied with a smile
“Wah, he can not go anywhere dong if there is nothing nemenin” said Risa
“Quiet, there are her friends in class. Insha Allah must be ready to help kok” replied Azka still calm
“There's also Lo?” goda Risa again
“No, while at school except come and go home, I will not take care of him anyway. Let him still be able to blend in with his friends. If there is I will definitely be I doang nemenin” he explained
“Say you do not want cape ngurusin him” said Ocha origin.
“Internally!” Azka glared towards Ocha
“Yes yes, sorry”
“Sukur Lo Cha, Azka mosquito danger, hehehehe” said Pita. Pita, Melisa, Wede, Ana, and Ncy eventually return to their bench leaving Azka, Ocha, and Risa all three.

Outside the classroom, Alfan and his nasyid team walk to class XI IPA 1. They paused for a moment when they saw the crowd gathered around the XI class of IPA 1 and XI IPA 2. At first glance they see Azka is right next to someone who is in control of a wheelchair. In the wheelchair looks someone familiar to Alfan. They're having a good chat. It was as if they were old friends who had not met for a long time.
“That's who Bang?” juan asked curiously
“Oh, the Rasya. XI class IPA 2” replied Alfan briefly
“Oh, that's not Azka?” point to a girl standing behind a wheelchair in a crowd
“Mbak Azka looks like deket yes same, who? Kak Agil” said Tama tried to remember the name of the man who also stood behind the wheelchair
“Iya, they're quite deket. Agil is Rasya's best friend. Rasya deket same Azka.” Obviously Alfan
“They are dating Bang?” ask Juan quickly
“Entah. From the tenth grade. In fact they said that already so from the era of SMP” Alfan raised the shoulder mark not too (want) tau
“Bang Alfan time do not know anyway?” ask Juan again
“Yes they are deket, courtship possible. But Azka never told me ever really shot what gak” Alfan remembered every time Azka confided in him
“Alfan jealous no?” ask Tama
“Hah?? Of jealousy? Yes, it is not. I'm the same Azka there's nothing”
“Yes kirain, right Brother and sister Azka really deket” They also darted towards the crowd, then separated when Alfan entered the class, and they moved away towards their classroom at ten one.

On returning home from school, Azka rushed out of class and approached Rasya who was waiting in front of her class.
“Which first day of school?” greet Azka with a framed smile
“Ya so”
“Yes how is it?” ask again
“Yes that's it. What should I do?” Rasya asked back
“Zeneg no? Is gasuka even able to go to school?” tanya Azka made it clear
“Seneng” answers at a glance
“How come? Are you okay, Kak?” tanya Azka was serious. His face showed concern
“No, just not delicious so attention. Don't like me” he said then lowered his head
“That's a sign that many love you” said Azka softly.
From a distance, Rasya's car is seen entering the school gate. Azka shifted her wheelchair slightly, eroding the distance above the classroom terrace.
“They are not so because of dear. More because kasian” said ketus
“What's wrong if they feel like you? That's natural. That's also a sign of affection according to me” Azka tried to calm down
“I don't need to be pitied by them. I want to be considered as usual. Not like a disabled person who should be pitied” Azka was silent for a moment because the driver started to open the door beside his wheel for Rasya. Azka helps hold Rasya's arm just before getting into the car, but Rasya's body movements as if saying ‘I can myself’. Azkapun. He got stuck in the car if the driver got into the car. Azka smiled when the door was closed and the driver said goodbye to her.
“Be careful ya” says Azka
Rasya remained silent. He answered nothing. Azka thinned her lips, hiding the sadness and confusion she felt.
“Om, titip Kak Rasya yes. Greetings to Aunt Atik at home” he said to the driver, who was replied by a nod. Rasya remained unmoved until the car moved away from him.
“I was wrong?” Azka muttered and then returned to the classroom.
There was Alfan in class. Since the bell came home, Alfan left the class to collect assignments because Ambar did not enter. He's still here, or maybe he knows what just happened?
“Eh, Azka. Not home yet?”
“You yourself why haven't you returned?” Azka asked back
“Tadi abis collected the task, to mushola bentar, and here to take tas” he explained
“Tadii..“ new Azka wants to finish the sentence, but He undoes his intention
“Tadi why? You want me to see what happened earlier and hear your chat what not?” alfan asked on target.
Azka nodded “Sorry, not the intention of spying or spying. But the chat was buzzing, and I also saw the attitude of the two of you during the chat” said Alfan answered Azka's question that had been guessed by him
“I was wrong to say yes Mas?” the question just came out of his lips. Azka sat down in the chair in front of Alfan
“I think it's not accurate. It was not wrong” Alfan stopped his activities and looked at the girl who had turned into a moody one
“Cot exactly?”
“Rasya new again feel in school. His condition was not the same as his previous condition. He must be a minder. And getting treatment as if special does not make him happy, but surely he actually felt nothing and felt useless” Azka stunned to hear Alfan's explanation.
“After all, it's natural that he feels that way. Apalgi earlier you even said what's wrong with people feeling kasian? Maybe he so thinks that you are still at his side because of pity, it could be for him sad” continued Alfan
“Hmmmh, that's why you didn't welcome him with the kids this morning?”
“Iya not too, I think he was already quite fondly welcomed so, and must be guarded his feelings by treating him like before he lost his legs. I already said hello to him. And have chatted for a while right after me”
“Oooh, hmm. Thanks, I know what to do now”
“Emang should what?” ask Alfan
“I have to go home. Hehehe” Azka chuckles
“Yaudah, yok together. I no longer bring Vespa kok” said Alfan
“Serious?” tanya Azka was excited
“Heemh, but we went to mushola used to say goodbye to the kids” said Alfan carrying his backpack on his back, grabbed Azka's bag and carried it
“Ayo” take her again
“Ih Mas, here the bag let me just bring” Azka grabbed the bag from Alfan's right hand, then align his steps towards the mushola.
