Chapter 24 ~Other Normal Days~

“School is a place where fun things happen. Meet friends, fall in love, and fight each other. However, all of it will be etched as memories in the deepest memory.”

- Mayn Urr Izqi

　

　

Seconds passed, turning into minutes. Minutes turned into hours. Days passed and Yogi was focusing on the teacher in the classroom. Every now and then his attention shifted, staring at Renata's back.

He was a little sorry for sitting in the back seat. If he was in the front seat, he should have been able to stare at Renata's face. However, Renata must have been troubled by that. However, he also could not change the seat just like that. He will be in that seat until graduation.

Satisfied looking at Renata's back, he turned away. One of his hands crossed out the paper, copying every piece of writing on the board.

His ears catch every word that the teacher throws, while the brain digests every thing that is heard.

As she turned away, spreading her attention, she found some people were closing their eyes, using their hands as pillows. Some people stare at the phone screen, perhaps exchanging messages with someone. There are also those who play with my colleagues, some even hide comic books behind textbooks.

He thought that those people might get bored and look for busyness. However, of course, it will give a disadvantage because it does not listen to the lesson. Unlike them, Yogi has a dream that has been targeted. Therefore, he must study hard and overtake Rizki's intelligence.

“So that's how you guys work it. Any questions?”The teacher turned around, staring at the whole class. However, he had nothing to ask. He understood everything explained, even if he encountered difficulties later, he could ask Rizki who was smarter than him.

What he was worried about was Lia. If you remember Lia's person, maybe the girl will have trouble digesting the lesson. Maybe Lia will be the first to raise her hand and throw a lot of questions.

Seconds. Two seconds. Three seconds. No one raised their hand. Yogi was quite surprised by that. Allegedly wrong. Maybe he couldn't see Lia with just one guess. Maybe the sentence ‘do not judge a book from its cover’ applies to the girl.

On the other hand, the other disciples did not raise their hands. Either they're too smart or they don't want to admit their own stupidity.

“Alright, do LKS page 17. Collect before the break starts!” the teacher turned, headed to the table and sat down, waiting for the task to be completed.

Not thinking longer, he immediately grabbed the LKS and opened the page in question. The problem given consists of two parts. The first part is the multiple choice. Part two is the description. It may take an hour or more to complete all of that. However, he has plenty of time.

“Yogi,” when he opened LKS, Rizki mentioned his name. He turned, looking at Rizki.

“Ya?”

“Yesterday, when you were both with Sis. Yuutha, what are you guys talking about?” Rizki throws questions.

Actually, he never thought that Rizki would ask that question. However, Rizki is still Kak's lover. Yutha, it's natural to worry about Brother. Yuutha when both with the opposite sex.

“Nothing. We were just talking about Renata and the way she apologized to Lia. Ah, I also bought him a hair clip. Know it? At first she refused, but she immediately accepted it when I said that I chose her based on your taste. He also wears it straight away. What say?”

“Only that?”

“Yap, that's it,” he replied.

“Ahaha ..” Rizki chuckled, “sorry, I had thought that you would tease her,” Rizki ended her sentence.

“Don't you know that I wouldn't do such a thing?” Yogi put on an annoyed face.

“Really, sorry. By the way did you pick a brace for Kak. Yuutha?”

“Ya, why?”

“Thank you back,” answered.

The conversation ended. To both reach for a pencil, the brain begins to spin, working on the written problem. Silence bandaged, making a conducive atmosphere suitable for doing tasks. However, when Yogi turned around, he found some people who were not working.

Some are still in dreamland, some are reading comics. Whether they have the intention to learn or not. What he knows is he can't be like that. He doesn't want to be a slacker. He did not want to waste the efforts of his parents who worked to finance his school.

“By the way what were you talking about with Renata yesterday? When I came back, you guys already looked familiar,” Rizki threw another question.

“Ah, that ..., actually I just gave her a brace. When she wears it, I call it subconsciously beautiful. When that happens, brother. Yuutha and Lia were already there. They teased me and Renata. So, we just defend ourselves ...―”

“Thanks, you guys became close unconsciously,” Rizki interjected in the middle of her sentence.

“True,” answered while nodding slowly.

“Yeah, that's a good development. But how do you feel when you are with him? Are you calm?”

“True, now I can control myself quite well when with him. At least I can answer his question and provide a topic to talk about.”

“Hmm ..., that's good,” reply Rizki while nodding slowly.

“You have other suggestions for me?” Yogi tilts his face. You could say that Rizki is his love advisor. Therefore, he often asked Rizki for advice. Then the results always correspond to what Rizki said, as long as he followed the given steps. Therefore, he did not doubt the direction he had received.

“Short ...” Rizki raised her face, putting the tip of the pencil under her lips. The man looked at the ceiling, probably thinking of the answer to his question.

“How?” tanyanya.

“I don't think you're ready to go alone with him,” Rizki turned to him.

What Rizki said has a point. If she had to be alone with Renata, even though she could melt the atmosphere, but she would soon run out of topics due to not getting used to it, both with a girl. He also cannot discuss personal matters because his relationship with Renata has not been that deep.

“I think you have a point,” reply, “then what should I do?”

“For now none. You just have to continue like this. Keep trying to be close to him as a friend. If any other opportunity arises, I will tell you soon.” Rizki lowered her head, started working on the accepted matter.

“I understand,” reply while following Rizki. However, he took the time to stare at Renata's back. What happened next left his eyes wide open.

Lia and Renata turned to the back. The eyes of the three of them met. The two girls smiled at him. He smiled back at them and waved at them.

“That's weird,” murmured Rizki.

“Eh?”  he turned to Rizki.

“Nothing. This is a little strange to me.”

“Give up,” reply while turning, want to see Renata before starting work. However, the two girls had already turned around and were doing chores.

For a moment, he sighed and started working on it.
