During school, Gerald was silent, more indifferent than usual, even learning was not focused. He kept thinking about his younger sibling who had never met before.
It's the first hour of rest. Adit is launching his act of disturbing classmates.
"Lo what the hell? From that day on," Nathan's murmured.
"Whispering."
Nathan clucked in annoyance, "think debt huh, lo?"
Gerald kept silent about Nathan's question.
"ADIT!! BALIKINN BEKEL!!" The upset screams came from Alya the most beautiful woman in Gerald's class.
"So my girlfriend first!"
Alya bent her brows irritatedly, "Son! Whathim!"
"Oh, I'm not going back,"
"Balikinn!!!"
"So my girlfriend used to eat it,"
"No, don't want to! Same with Nadia!" Adit glares at Alya to mention the name of Nadia, the geeky girl who is often bullied.
"I don't like gelayy!" Alya looked at Adit with a look of disdain.
Nathan laughed, "don't refuse to do it Al, you can be smitten with me, later,"
"Diem lo!"
"Ballak is really njir," Nathan murmured softly.
"Aditt's a patter of balikinn, I'm laperr..." Alya's voice sounded like crying.
"Eh? Don't cry dong, I'm turning back," Adit thrusts Alya's stock box.
Alya accepts it rudely, he is still annoyed with Adit.
Adit returned to his seat, still watching Alya eating his provisions. The girl looks beautiful with long hair.
"Wink Dit, wink," Nathan chuckles at her.
Adit turned his head towards Nathan then leaned his back against his chair.
Adit sighed, "gue likes him, but it's hard to get to." He looked back at Alya.
"Why?" Nathan asked while Gerald silently listened.
"He's a conglomerate boy, and I? I have children people do not have, make a daily meal or sometimes less. Temenan equally you both sometimes I feel inferior, fear later you will not want to meet me again." said Adit bluntly.
Gerald straightened his back, "so, you think that I'm the same Nathan you're just pretending?"
"N-that's not what I mean. I'm afraid you're both ashamed of having poor friends like me,"
"Lo want to know why I want to meet you? Because you are sincere. I also never feel ashamed to have a friend like you. Stop lowering yourself." Then Gerald stood up from his chair and walked out of the classroom.
Gerald was a little disappointed with his best friend, Adit could have thought that way.
Gerald climbed the stairs leading to the school rooftoop. He took an unused chair there. He silently thought about his biological sister while enjoying the wind that blew.
A girl with shaved hair was surprised to see Gerald's whereabouts, she also took an unused chair and placed it next to Gerald.
Gerald turned his head to the right as he felt that someone was approaching him.
"Hi, what's the matter here?" Arania asked while looking at Gerald's perfect face.
"What's the same story?" Gerlad ketus.
Arania looked ahead, "what the hell, just tumben you here. Usually it's quiet here," said the girl.
"Did you follow me?" Ask Gerald very confidently.
"Huh? Who is following? Just so! I'm used to being here, almost every hour of rest." Honest answer.
"You have a lot of thoughts, huh? Think what?"
"It certainly wasn't your thinking." Gerald's answer is still tiring, maybe different again if chatting with Sarah, thought Arania.
"Yes know. Who knows, I can take care of the burden of your mind" said Arania.
Gerald reached into his pants pocket and took out a paper containing the address of the orphanage. "Do you know this place?" Gerald handed the paper.
Arania accepted and read carefully, then she nodded confidently, "yes. I come here a lot with brother." He returned the paper to Gerald.
"Lo can come with me later."
Arania's eyes sparkle, "really? You're taking me?"
"Yes." Yeah."
"You're not lying, are you?"
"You don't believe in yaudah. Don't come along."
Arania was wide-eyed, "believe in me! So when?"
"Going to school."
...***...
The school bell rings. All the disciples cheered cheerfully Arania was no exception. The girl smiled.
"Lo why the hell?" Sarah looked at Arania confused.
Arania just shook her head. The journey continued until they reached the front of the school gate.
"You want to be with him?" Sarah bargained when she was in the car.
"I'm going home by myself."
"Ohh, I'll go back."
"She be careful."
Arania waited patiently for Gerald, he pulled out his phone and called Bryan.
"Hello bang?"
'yeah? Why?'
"I'm not going straight to the house."
'But? Where to?'
"You learn groups,"
'old?'
"Hngg, you don't know,"
'yeah. Cave hang up, huh?'
"Yes." Yeah."
Arania put her phone back in her bag. Shortly thereafter Gerald came in his black car.
"Lake in." Gerald's Word.
Arania's circling Gerald's car. "How about through the toll? You're pretty far away," he said then closed the car door.
Gerald just muttered. The weather this afternoon was quite blistering, Gerald saw a patch of sweat on the edge of Arania.
Gerald took the tissue in front of him and gave it to Arania.
Arania noticed the tissue, "make me?"
Gerald clucked in annoyance, "no. Make a security guard."
Arania's forehead frowned confused, "don't you give it to me?"
Then Gerald pulled Arania's hand impatiently. "Kan, make it lo." His word.
Arania's heart was racing, her cheeks flushed like a boiled crab. "Makasihhh prospective girlfriendrrr!!!"
Gerald looked at Arania. "Don't dream. I'm not gonna be your girlfriend." Gerlad said straightforwardly.
"Today I'm not your girlfriend, so tomorrow I can dong?"
"Diem." Gerald started driving his car away from school.
Arania complied for fear of being taken down by Gerald. Sitting next to each other like this alone has made Arania happy, especially if you sit together in the pelaminan.
The two were silent, only the sound of music playing from the car radio. Arania sings involuntarily, her voice comfortable to hear. Gerald wanted to praise Arania, but her prestige was too great.
D
it's the middle of Arania's trip almost forgot to work. In a hurry he took his cellphone in his backpack and then typed the message he wanted to send to his coworker.
Suddenly Gerald braked suddenly making Arania's forehead hit the dashboard of the car, his phone also fell thankfully not damaged.
"Why you?" Arania asked as she rubbed her forehead.
"Almost hit a cat." His gaze remained straight ahead, it seemed that Gerald was also still shocked.
"Judah, go on the road,"
Gerald returned to his car.
...***...
About two hours into the journey they both arrive at the orphanage, Arania a little exhausted but her tiredness disappears as she looks at Gerald's handsome face. Really bucin.
One of the children who was cycling saw the existence of Arania and Gerald was very happy then left his bike and ran to them, more precisely just to Arania. "Sir Araaa!!!" Shouted the boy.
Arania and Gerald turned to the source of the voice. Arania's eyes were round and smiling happily. "Lila, here baby!" Arania squatted down and spread out her hands.
The boy immediately welcomed Arania's warm embrace, "kangennn..." Said the four-year-old boy while hugging Arania tightly.
"Sister too. Have you eaten yet?"
Lila nodded quickly, "Udah! I ate fried chicken! Awesome bangettt!!" Both of his eyes were shining.
"Let's go with Lila!" Continue Lila while pulling Arania's hand. Arania, according to her, left Gerald alone, as if he had left with Gerald.
Gerald followed Arania, asking where the caretaker was.
After meeting, Gerald hurriedly inquired about his sister. "Mom, I'd like to ask. Didn't you take care of her?" Gerald asked while giving a picture of his sister.
"It... It's Rangga. Yes, I took care of him. If you know, you're ready?" Ask the house mom.
"I'm his real brother."
