The day is getting noon. Outbound activities are even more exciting and burn the spirit of every student who participates. No exception Rendi who has since been trying to make physical contact with Chandana.
Throughout today's activities, Rendi did not once let go of Chandana's attention. For some reason, the closer she gets to Chandana, the more beautiful and attractive she is to him. It was truly a gentle and calming figure just by looking at him. Her face was also very beautiful with white and soft skin. This really makes Rendi powerless to refrain from coming into contact with Chandana.
At every opportunity, Rendi continued to try to hold her arms, shoulders, back and even she did not hesitate to touch Chandana openly. Rendi seemed to ignore the expression of fear and rejection that Chandana showed whenever Rendi tried to make physical contact with her.
Since then Chandana continues to try to avoid, but Rendi also continues to try to approach him especially when they are involved in group games. Let alone Rendi, being near some fellow men who were on the team with her only Chandana was trembling. Many times Chandana feels frightened whenever she feels her skin coming into contact with a teammate. The short-sleeved sports uniforms they wear make physical contact very prone to occur. For this reason Chandana tried desperately to avoid.
Now her two beautiful eyes looked teary. Chandana is no longer able to withstand the discomfort of being around Rendi and her friends. Fear and panic enveloped his heart and mind. But he could not do anything, he could not suddenly get angry and leave because now they are doing team activities. Touching and holding is natural, but not for Chandana, he is not used to it, he cannot. With trembling and cold sweat flooding her body, Chandana continued to pray for this event to end soon.
Elsewhere, Kiran who now began to participate in some light games also looks happy and cheerful. He seemed to enjoy the excitement that occurred without being busy avoiding his female colleagues. Kiran was too engrossed in playing until she managed to forget a little panic that she had felt some time ago. Even so, Kiran still often stole a glance towards Chandana's team. He was busy watching the movements of the girl who had since looked very uncomfortable.
Kiran's hands clenched tightly as she watched Rendi embrace Chandana's shoulder as their team had to shoulder to shoulder. Not the envy of never coming into contact with the girl that Kiran felt, but the worry of seeing Chandana's expression that seemed uncomfortable and even very tormented. If it was Kiran, she would definitely blatantly stay away and keep a distance with the girls that made her uncomfortable, but Chandana was a woman. Instead of being strict with these people, Chandana tried hard to hold back even though it was clear that she was suffering.
Kiran felt that she was looking at herself, only that they were different because Kiran always acted bravely even if she had to make others hurt. Kiran could not pay attention to others for their salvation, but in fact, she did it for herself. To cover up his fear, cover up his failure to forgive himself.
Kiran asks Bagas for permission to buy a drink. Still stealing a glance at Chandana, Kiran walks to the snack booth and buys a drink and a chocolate snack. After paying for the goods he bought, Kiran intends to approach Roka's team to talk briefly with her best friend, and of course talk to Chandana as well.
Just now Kiran turned away from the cashier to look back at Chandana, she actually saw a very surprising sight that made her heart feel like it had slipped out. Chandana is thrown off when she and three other friends are doing the rounds to complete the challenge of the game. Kiran almost ran when another incident again made her heart beat more and more.
Rendi swiftly approached Chandana, stealing the opportunity to hug the girl by breaking her into a nearby post. Kiran gnashed her jaw in annoyance. In addition to the worry because Chandana looks to keep trying to escape from Rendi, a foreign feeling feels very piercing to the chest. The feeling of not accepting that out of nowhere comes.
I hope he's okay. Kiran thought inwardly as she continued to try to observe Chandana's movements which hopefully were not hurt at all.
With hesitation, Kiran returned to where her team was waiting. Throughout the event Kiran could not focus at all because she kept thinking about Chandana. He was eager to run to the post and ask her how he was, giving her spirit and erasing the fear in his heart. But who is he? What right does it have to go there? He is nobody, he has no right to anything.
Keeping Chandana in mind, Kiran tries to continue the game well. Hoping to put an end to all activities today so that he could immediately calm his mind, as well as extinguish the fire that was burning in his heart.
Time keeps going. Without feeling one by one the team began to return to their respective villas to clean up after all the challenges they successfully completed. Kiran and her team are no exception.
They walked to the villa. Sometimes Kiran glances at Naya, she intends to ask her to check Chandana's situation but Kiran continues to hesitate to invite Naya to speak.
"Lo why? I've noticed you're weird, serious." Naya, who had noticed Kiran's strangeness since then, decided to ask her to speak first.
"Gue was worried about Chandana. Check him out or not, right? Later you will tell me." said Kiran, his face restless.
Naya frowned, "Huh? Chandana why? Do you know where it's from?"
"Lo queer. Yeah, I'm looking for him this brother." Naya agrees to Kiran's request even though she herself is unsure.
After mengengae Naya's words, Kiran nodded and thanked him, then went to the boys' dwelling. While Naya is in a hurry, she goes to her room to find Chandana.
"Is there Chandana?" Naya stopped in front of the door, adjusting her wheezing breath.
A girl who was about to go into the bathroom said, "So I think I went to the backyard."
Naya thanked him and then headed towards the backyard. He looked around to find his best friend. The backyard is not too crowded so it will be easier to find Chandana. Strangely, he could not find the girl there.
Reluctant to give up, Naya tried to comb to every corner until she finally saw someone sitting hugging their knees behind a large tree that was quite hidden.
Naya held her breath when she realized the girl was sobbing. He was seen rubbing his arm with wet tissue, tears falling from his eye patch.
"Why?" Naya sits in front of Chandana while the girl looks up when she realizes Naya's presence. Revealing her flushed face and unrelenting tears down her cheeks.
Naya goes teary-eyed, she doesn't know what's going on but seeing Chandana like this makes her heart hurt, "Why?" ask Naya again.
Chandana was still rubbing her arms tightly with wet wipes as Naya grabbed onto the girl's shoulder, hugging her tightly.
Chandana was sobbing more and more, terrified and all her panic seemed to spill right then and there, "S-I'm afraid.. Nay.. I'm scared," Chandana said amid the puff.
For some time, the two cried together until they were tired. Naya tells Chandana that she is ready to be a listener for all the complaints and grievances she has. Naya does not want Chandana to bear all alone, she no longer wants to see Chandana alone. Although initially refused due to doubt, in the end Chandana decided to tell everything in nature so far.
That afternoon, Naya was once again taken aback by the fact about Chandana. In addition to his unpredictable personality, he also has a very unpredictable life. Naya cries over what Chandana tells her while Chandana also sobs softly as she tells her all about herself, all the things she has been keeping for herself.
Naya felt that she did not know what to do, she felt like a failure as a friend because she could never realize the pain Chandana had been suffering.
"I hope you don't feel disgusted with me. I hope you're not angry with me" Chandana wiped her tears as she looked at Naya who was still sobbing.
"You're kidding me, aren't you? I will never leave you at any time, Chandana. We're friends, and it'll always be like that." Naya hugs Chandana, trying to re-digest everything the girl has told her.
Naya recalls Kiran's earlier words asking her to find Chandana and confirm her condition. He doesn't know how Kiran found out, but now Naya has no choice but to trust Kiran more and more.
Kiran, I hope you won't change when the time comes to know all this. Chandana needs a kayak lo. No, Chandana needs you.
