Boyfriend Lies

Boyfriend Lies
Her name is Shafira Anna



He still acted as if he didn't see me, but I've been following him since I left the parking lot. I was even willing to let go of the embarrassment, passing by the herd of upperclassmen who were looking at me with unnatural expressions.


Up in front of the men's toilet— where I believe not too many people pass by, my hands are as strong as possible grasping tightly Kak Bagas's arms until his body turns instantaneously. He looked at me, still with a surprised expression. Maybe just know that the power of a Dara can defeat his defense in taking steps.


"Obviously, dong, what did that look like?" I don't want to mince words, don't want to waste time with constant chattering like this. My time is not much. The bell in will soon sound. I don't want to start the morning with curiosity and a broken mood.


"Tadi Shafira's. Ex-sister."


The sister? Since when did the call change? Highlight the eyes that are usually attached and warm in looking at me, now I realize it also changed drastically. He was cold, as cold as when he first met me.


My eyes blinked, suddenly the emotions and questions disappeared to nothing. I was too focused on finding her flat face to the point of losing the urge to ask for an explanation.


"Please stay away from big brother for a second!" she quickly turned away from me and walked forward.


I neither chase, nor hold back. Kak Bagas just now is very different from Kak Bagas before being embraced by Shafira. He looks shaken. Well, maybe it's not the time for me to enter into the realm of his life and heart. I just hope he's okay and behaves as usual.


......***......


"Ra, who was Kak Bagas hugging?"


"Yes, Ra. How dare you hug guys, anyway!"


"It's as strong as steel, yes, Ra. You are so patient. If I'd slapped a fucking girl straight away."


They endlessly ask questions until they comment. I was dizzy until I could not examine their faces one by one. Suffice Kak Bagas attitude that makes me dizzy, they do not add problems to this head.


Their voices momentarily came to a halt as the clattering of steps began to enter the classroom. That's Miss Wilas, our homeroom teacher at X-1.


"Good morning" he said before sitting at the teacher's desk.


"Morning, Mum ..." greet the protege in unison.


"Mom would like to give you info. Thank God, last year's mother student, can go back to school here."


The deg!


Students in the last year? That girl just now? The shafira? Why go to this class?


"Please come in, Shafira!"


Like being struck by lightning in broad daylight. My head turned then found the figure that had hugged Kak Bagas. He stepped decisively into the classroom accompanied by a charming smile and nod of his head.


Wait, wait, why are we a force? Shouldn't it be, Shafira is in class with Kak Bagas.


"So, this Shafir had been in school here, but was forced to stop first because there was a problem that made trauma. Thank God the trauma has been overcome well, yes, son?" Miss Wilas's words got a nod from the girl. "Well, so, the school considered Shafir to come back here and repeat the lesson from scratch. Shafira, can you introduce yourself first?"


"Can, Mom." Shafira stared at the audience after Miss Wilas removed the embrace on her shoulder.


The girl named Shafira cleared her throat before finally starting her self-introduction. "Izin introduced himself. My name is Shafira Anna, commonly called Shafira. I stayed at Cihampelas Garden Block A No. 8. Please help, yes, my friends. May we make good friends."


"Well, that's a glimpse of Shafira's name and address, yes! Any of you want to ask no?" haggar Bu Wilas was immediately responded to by the cries of the men in this class.


"Yoga will ask!" He who most vigorously brandished a hand ended up getting a nod from the homeroom teacher. "Shafir has a girlfriend?"


"It was the nanya that was kayaking, that is," the scolding of Bu Wilas interrupted Shafir's mouth that was about to open.


"If Shafir wants to answer, yes, no problem, dong, ma'am."


Shafira who heard the words Yoga just now immediately opened her mouth and declared an answer. "Shafir used to have a girlfriend. He was also in the XI-1 class."


Triple Kill's. It's fallen, hit the stairs anyway. Already seen Kak Bagas hugged, classed with the person concerned, and heard he was still dating the former. Wuah, thrill! More than seeing Arfan shoot Cecilia.


In fact, my pain is not enough to get there. Miss Wilas who found the seat next to me unfilled revealed the words. "Shafir is sitting next to Dara, yes! Dara's really good, really, the guy."


Yes, so good, I accepted the girl to sit next to me. "Please," I said as I shifted the chair and patted the pads first before being occupied by new residents.

"Become ... Aarg ...."


I don't know how many times that girl poked my arm. Hah, let alone to answer, to turn and look at his face alone feels claustrophobic and certainly reluctant. The break bell rang five minutes ago. I am used to eating provisions from his mother Kak Bagas so confused now. I'll meet you or I'll buy rice in the cafeteria by myself?


"Become ... Aarg ...."


This time I stopped and gave up. "Why, huh?" I try to behave as usual. Friendly and polite.


"You still want me, right?"


Yeah, I might have forgotten. You gave me a precious clue as well as snatched my most important pleasure, that of Kak Bagas.


"I love you—"


"By inget, really," cut me down quickly before he explained everything. "Bara also made a promise, helped Kak Bagas to catch them. Thanks, yes, the info is very valuable." I quickly moved, put the phone in my skirt pocket and started to take slow steps.


"Wait on!" He turned around to hold my hand. "I want to talk to you."


"They want to rest, Shafir," concluded me who did not want to interact longer.


"Awhile, really. Can you sit down for a second?"


I held my breath to ease the tightness in my chest. It seems, it will be difficult for me to be detached from the figure of Shafira. His eyes that were staring in the shade were so attractive to be pitied and treated well.


Inevitably, I forced myself to sit back in the original position. I also did not escape the ears sharply to listen to all the complaints that he would talk about.


"Here, earlier we apologize because Shafira did not say your name was asked," he said as an opening word. "I don't want you to know about my status. Moreover, you have a contractual relationship, right, the same Kak Bagas."


My head spontaneously turned. We were fighting each other in silence. How did he know about this contract? Was all this planned from the beginning? Did they deliberately use me to catch bullies? Goddamnit!


"Because you're just a contractual relationship, can't Shafira be a little insolent?"


"What do you mean?" My lips shook and said those two words.


"Shafira wants Dara balikin everything. Please remember, yes, Dara! We split up because of an unsupportive environment. The heart can not lie, the proof is that Kak Bagas willingly hugged me in public. So, Dara .. please turn our relationship back on, yes! Balikin Kak Bagas also because Kak Bagas from the beginning belongs to Shafira."
