Be aground

A good start

Aruna, the morning sun, that's how I felt when I first saw that girl beating quietly the seniors who bullied me. There was a sense of warmth radiating, when he saw the smile from his oriental face. The dimples on her reddish cheeks made the smile even more stunning.

At that time I was still in first grade Junior High, if people say, the feeling was nothing more than a monkey love feeling. Not for me, it's getting stronger every day. I was completely blown away by his calm way of dealing with that senior who bullied me so often. Honey, the school won't listen to Aruna's defense. While me? Let alone defending the girl who saved me, defending myself I can not afford, as a result Aruna must serve a suspension for one week.

Not wanting to linger absent from losing the girl, gathering a little courage, I told my parents what happened at school. By utilizing my relationship with the headmaster, finally my morning sun girl warmed my days at school.

After that, Runa and I got closer. It turned out that the girl was not only physically strong, her brain was brilliant. His relaxed and cheerful carrying made it easy to make friends, not only the aged, but the upperclassmen were also many who were close to him.

While me? I was still the closest friend to her, at least that made me grateful back then. Although sometimes I know, some friends call me the laron who always follows the fire, what do I care, anyway Runa never expressed his objections.

"Run, I also want to join Taekwondo donk," I asked Aruna one time during a break in the cafeteria.

As usual, we sat in the corner, avoiding the confusion of the canteen. More precisely, Runa did not want to make me uncomfortable in the middle of the noise. She is a very understanding girl. Even small things like that do not escape his attention.

"Why all of a sudden?" he stopped his bass feed and looked at me.

Yes Tuhaan... Actually I was never able to set the rhythm of my heart if stared at by those clear eyes. I always lowered my face so he wouldn't have to see her blush. I pushed the glasses that started to slump at the top of the nose that was soaked in sweat to relieve nervousness.

"Yes, take care of yourself. If I asked why Lo joined Taekwondo, would definitely answer the same right?" Though the real reason, I just wanted to extend my time to meet that sun girl.

Runa just nodded. Spent the baso in his mouth, then said, "but Lo is strong, isn't he?"

"I mean, Lo?"

"Today, I saw that you were rich enough to pass out in words. Moreover, klo was beaten," he said with a face full of doubt.

"Yes ... I mean also to train mentally as well, I'm a guy, let the clamps keep gini," I said almost like a tweet. Ah, lousy guy indeed.

Everywhere, guys have to protect girls, but this is back. I don't want to constantly look too weak in Runa's eyes. Although for the value of the lesson I still excel from him.

"But I'm telling you to give permission? I was afraid that ntar would be mistaken for his child who was unwilling," again a look of doubt emanated from his eyes.

Mom is overprotective. He doesn't want me to get scuffed in the least. Although sometimes papa often expressed his objection to the treatment of mama is too excessive, but mama does not care. I also cannot blame, because for my mother I am a very precious treasure. Three miscarriages before she finally gave birth to me into the world with a struggle, making her really try to take care of me as best she could.

"Yes, I'll be a mama nego. This is also to take care of yourself. Try if you did yesterday with bully senior mergokin, it's my bonyok."

"Hu-um, gotta. Don't let Lo come without permission. Can be condescending," he said while sipping warm orange order.

That's what makes me idolize this sunshine girl even more. He never underestimated anyone. If others like to call me 'the mother', not the girl. Because he is also a follower 'bend under the feet of the mother', so never thrown taunts from his mouth when I have to ask for consideration mama to do any activities.

****

The closer I got to the girl the more I started to feel a little confident. The cupu display pinned by classmates began to disappear. Runa is like the morning sun that dispels the fog for my life.

***

Entering High School, I began to enter puberty, all physical changes began to be seen, my body which was shorter than Runa, began to rise. The shoulders that once looked frail also began to widen. Then, suddenly I who used to be like an unknown, suddenly became the center of attention of girls at school.

Of course all that attention makes me careless. I'm not a person who is used to receiving attention, preferring to stand behind the scenes, playing my part in silence.

Runa back into a shield, when some girls who look desperate to approach me in a way that I think has begun to make no sense.

"Run, Lo don't be far from me donk" asked me one day like a child whining to buy a toy for his mother.

"I mean, I'm in the middle of school girls, Jun," chuckles the girl with her crispy laugh.

"When did you think of that? I didn't care much what people said."

"Since Lo became the idol of the girls. I'm like a rich laler ijo who ngider-ngider in their food."

"For me, Lo is still the same as before, Run. Don't change dong" I asked half-begging.

A little fear runs through the heart. I don't want the sun that always shines my day away. He was the one who was in my dark days. I could live without his warmth. I don't care how many girls come close, they just know that I look attractive in their eyes. While Runa, he who has existed from my time is still a nobody, when I was only looked at one eye.

It might be said to be an obsession for me to continue being on the side of the sun girl. Even I chose the same university and faculty as her after graduating from High School, only that my initial semester grades were insufficient to be able to enter the same major as the girl, made me finally separated by the majors.

Who would not be crazy about a tough girl with a watery rebel with a level that is also interesting. Not a few guys who also put their heart on Runa, but always rejected raw. The reason is always 'not wanting to date until graduation'. Yes, the girl is included in the affairs of education. He who only lives with his mother, does not want his education to fall apart just because of matters of the heart.

"Gue can't focus, Jun. Men's business lately, anyway I still have Lo who nemenin me anywhere, right," he said when I asked why he never want to accept a guy who is interested in him.

May I be a little heartened, because from Junior High my rivals are quite a lot. Not a few want to get rid of me, but Runa continues to keep me to always be close to him.

I finally chose to like her secretly, so that I could continue to be around her. He didn't want to stay away when I expressed his feelings. How many friendships end up being ruined when one person expresses feelings.

***

But for some reason, lately Runa is a little strange. He avoids more often. Not infrequently I found him daydreaming. If he is usually chatty, the last few days are more quiet. Several times I asked him why, as often as he said there was nothing to worry about.

Uh! How could I not worry, the sunlight that used to always shine warm as if covered in dark clouds. I miss the warmth that was before.
