Take the day of field observation...
"Yes, would you like to use a cave motor what motor you got there?" ask Dhika.
"Motor cave! Your motorbike is not good to carry" I replied.
"Yes, the bike is always in service, very different" replied Dhika meledek.
I also decided to go on a motorcycle with Dhika, while Doni and Lingga will join in the car of a group of new students.
Early in the morning the lecturer had called me to his room, for a briefing on activities in the field later during the observation.
"Dhika and Lingga become a traveling team, yes, you should see their posts every two or three hours. Note the development as well, you also have made a question sheet to be done in groups later please share...."
Mr. Lecturer has told everything in detail, we went to the lobby to give a briefing to our brothers..
"Yes, are you ready?" dhika asked while laughing out loud.
"Who is what?" askaku.
"Lu may not know if Raina is one group with Gian, and again they are one guard team as well" explained Dhika.
"Yes on?" my many.
"Yes not always you can avoid haha" ledek Dhika.
Arriving at the lobby, I tried to straighten my eyes to avoid eye contact with my younger siblings. "Andreas, you're just a big brother who helps lecturers and helps your adek-adak! You can't expect more!" I said in my heart.
Unknowingly I found Raina among the freshman ranks, she wore navy coats and matching sneakers. Her hair was still wet and sagging, maybe she had not had time to dry it.
Sometimes he looks down and is embarrassed when Dhika, teasing and smiling at him, says "dede"..
I know Dhika also has a sister the same age as Raina, but her sister just a few months ago died in an accident. Dhika's sister is named Dhinia. The child is friendly and sweet. I met him once when Dhinia and her parents visited Dhika to Bandung.
Lately Dhika has become a bit slurred as if intending to cover up her heart's sadness. I know my best friend this one, he will become more expressive when he is sad. It was only fitting that every time he saw Raina, Dhika would be excited and laugh with excitement. Maybe because Dhika misses Dhinia.
"Gue kangen adek I yas, this Raina looks almost like nia (call for her sister) yes equally pendiem but also sweet" whispered Dhika while nudging my elbow.
"Haha you're patient! You are calm there." I replied.
"Lu don't get me wrong, I just think Raina is just as rich as others just yeah because I like the picture of my sister's life in Raina" explained Dhika.
"Look down" I replied briefly.
A few minutes later .....
Dhika and I left first, because they had to get to the place first to set observation posts for students later.
I drove my bike faster than usual. Dhika occasionally reminds me to control my speed, afraid that behind the freshman to see and think we were mules.
"Yes Dhik haha is calm!" I said.
It turned out that on the street, I ran into Gian and Raina. They both look very friendly and friendly. "New couple's indictment" I thought.
Raina looks comfortable near Gian, as well as Gian who is reliable and deserves to be next to Raina.
"I think I should know myself" I murmured.
I avoided them as much as possible and quickly pushed my bike ahead of them.
"Lu again ngehindarin Raina? Lu said Raina was avoiding you, but from my view it was you who was avoiding her. Why you?" shout Dhika.
"Gue's? No why-why. I am rich" I replied.
"You're still the same, you're naive!" sahut Dhika's.
Actually I'm uncomfortable seeing Raina with Gian getting closer, but yeah how else? If they are in fact already dating.
Arriving in place...
"Yes, do you think Raina's a big boy?" dhika asked as we were both determining the points of observation posts.
"Can you be unprofessional? We will again do your work do not discuss what is not important first." replied I was upset
"Wey okay sorry bosque!" dhika replied as if realizing my discomfort.
"Sorry dhik is just an unusual cave if you think gini again, you have to think of others hahaha sorry!".
"That's ok yas!" answer Dhika.
If the point of Dhika's question is about Raina's relationship with Gian, I don't want to divide her any further. I think Raina's answer at that time was clear enough. They had indeed been close from a long time ago, from the time of religious studies and not to mention the time Raina came home almost midnight. In the same parking lot, I also saw Gian.
After finishing determining the point, Dhika and I returned to basecamp. There I, Dhika, Doni and Lingga deliberately mingled with the new students to get closer to them. Because, soon they will be part of the Bem organization.
From the many maru, I saw there was Raina as well. He still looks shining among the children of his class. According to Dhika, Raina is still sweet. I just nodded every time Dhika praised Raina.
"Dhik lu kanya is really kangen adek lu" I said.
Dhika's expression became grim and sad. I then patted her on the back as a sign of strengthening me as her best friend.
Lingga and Doni asked us to collect the respective group notebooks to be given a task sheet and check the manual tables they had created. Finally, I took the initiative to collect it.
A few minutes later...
All of their notebooks are in my hands. The phallus then asked me to paste the task sheet and examine it one by one.
"Lu ngerjain this aja yas, because I'm the same Doni want to point outposts to them while Dhika must nemenin Pak Dosen. Lu was already cape first nentuin point, so now you are light" said Lingga.
"Seriously gapapa?" my question is a bit unpleasant because others get more work portions.
"Yes gapapa lu if cape sleep aja bentar tu eye bags are still looking like that hahaha" answered the three of them alternately while softening
Finally I was asked to wait in the room that became the room of the lecturer, while Maru who served as a team one moved towards the observation posts and the rest waited at the basecamp.
Raina's first group notebook I checked, the cover of the book was like a flipped calendar. Raina's last name is Pramadini.. "Well there are similar-looking Dhika pantes she is very fond of Raina" my inner.
The book Raina collected turned out to be her cadre notebook. There are biodata and photos during his High School taped to the front page.
"Stick his face" I thought.
Raina High School photos are still her typical face which now, nothing has changed. Probably because Raina also never dressed up like most of the female students in her class, so Raina still looks like a child.
"My hobby is reading novels, I love watching anime especially Naruto and One piece. I like to sing. My goal is to be Minister of Tourism"
That's a glimpse of Raina's biodata that I read just now. When I finished reading, I opened the next page to paste the question sheet and the observation instructions.
Just as I was about to put Raina's book down, there was suddenly a piece of paper protruding out. "Ah I don't seem to really nempelin the sheet" I thought.
I also opened the sheet and found the top end of the page like it had been torn intentionally but not all separated.
"Oh this is Raina's note not a task sheet" I muttered.
My eyes were curious about what was written on the page. Finally, I discovered the awkwardness between his stanzas.
*Sister, we'll see you again today....
In the same place...
The same campus...
But why does it feel different?
Why does my sister feel so far away?
Why does my sister feel foreign?
Why is there such a long distance between us?
I even forgot my eyes...
I forgot my brother's waypa first time...
Brother, be well! It seems like today brother is sick..
Big brother's eye bags look clear...
Big brother's smile also went where...
Sis... The spirit!!!!
Bandung.at Praktikum day...*
"Who's the sister Raina means here? Who is the person who is distant and has a mackle eye? Who makes Raina feel like she's a stranger?" my thinking.
Repeatedly I read the note, I was still curious about the figure that Raina meant. I remember what happened the first time we met on campus. At that time me and Raina also met in the lobby. I also always greet him first, which I do not do to other new students. Yes... Just Raina... I took my wine and I glazed there.
"I'm an eye bag? Is this what Raina really meant? Raina thinks I'm keeping her distance?"....
De... You responded me?....
