Too much fun chatting with Annisa made me not pay attention around.
Bbuuukkc..
I accidentally bumped into someone and made his report fall scattered on the floor.
"Sorry.." I helped him retrieve his report.
"It's okay.." He said he picked up his report sheet by sheet. "Loh Salwa's.."
I saw him calling my name.
"Ka Brother Farhan?" I was a little surprised to see Farhan in front of me. How long had I not communicated with Farhan until I no longer recognized his voice.
"You're going to college here?" Ask smile.
I just nodded
"Well, how could we happen to be one campus. What faculty?"
"Pharmacy.."
"Haha, until the majors are the same. It just so funny.." He said he chuckled while continuing to pick up his report.
I'm a little confused, why can I meet Farhan here after a year of not telling each other. Why this campus and why with the same Faculty. I knew Farhan had decided to move to university but I didn't think he was going to continue his studies here.
"I'm ahead, yes, my report should be checked immediately.."
"Oh okay.." I answered with confusion.
Farhan passed while running around carrying his report. I was still stunned trying to digest what had just happened.
"Salwa, do you know him?" Annisa's question made me realize.
"Ah.. I yes.. She's Farhan's sister, my upperclassman from High School" I replied, I couldn't have told Annisa that she was my ex or rather my affair.
"Oh.. Yaudah, come to the canteen."
Annisa and I went back to the cafeteria.

Today's lecture was completed, probably because the introduction of the new course became a lecture hour only briefly.
I stood in front of the campus gate waiting for Grab that I ordered earlier. Because now I have to go to college away from Mom and Dad so no one's picking me up. I can't use a bike here either, and Dad and Mom still won't let me ride.
"Salvah.."
I looked around, I saw Farhan walking up to me. I was actually a little awkward chatting with Farhan, either because of a long time no chat or because of something that happened between us a year ago.
"Why in front of the gate like this?"
"Wait for grab sis" I said as I tried to smile.
"You ordered grab? Where are you going?"
"I want to go home.."
"Have you gone home yet?"
"Yes, the lecture was just for a while today"
"It's still a while, it's just a college introduction.."
"Where do you live here? Your parents came here?"
"Near the Kak area general hospital, I live alone here because I can't stay here. Just sometimes I'm just here to cool me down." My answer. I don't know much about this area because it's new. I just remember that around where I live there is a general hospital area.
"It's not far from where I live. Want to come back with me? We're in the same direction" he said offering.
I was silent for a moment thinking about it.
"Don't be so shy and awkward. We will end well so there is no harm if we help each other here" explained who seemed to be able to read my expression.
"Ta but I'll take care of you later.."
"No, we're in the same direction.."
I thought back for a moment.
"So how?" Ask again.
"Sorry, for having to trouble you.."
"What's wrong, tomorrow-tomorrow I could get help from you"
I finally got home with Farhan today. Farhan drove me home to the house where I lived while here in college.
"Why did you go to college here?" Farhan asked breaking the silence while driving.
"I just chose a University that is not far from home, has already been teaching at several other Universities and its acceptance here" I replied.
I was actually a little awkward talking to Farhan like this, but it seemed like Farhan was just plain ordinary. Maybe because he really thinks of me as a friend.
"Hehe was like fate could meet you here, the same college courses also the same majors"
I smiled in response, trying my best not to show my awkwardness in front of Farhan.
"You live alone, right here?" Ask.
I'm nodding.
"If you need something you can tell me, while I can I will help you. If there is a task that you do not understand you can also ask me. Hehe I'm not very smart, but at least there's something I can teach you. If it's still about the first semester I can still really" he said laughing.
"Yes brother.. Thanks.."
"I also have some handbooks and some basic Pharmacy textbooks, if you need you can tell me, I'll bring them.."
"Yes, brother,.."
"My number is still that of Salwa, so whenever you need you can call me.." He said he looked at me with a smile.
"Thank you brother.." Answer me with a smile.

The night showed at 9 o'clock after a few minutes, because it had just moved and was not used to cooking, I became more often levery food or eat out rather than cooking, I was just alone. Cooking alone and eating alone does not taste very good. I'm preparing my college kit for tomorrow, from notes to the clothes that are ironed and ready to wear tomorrow, not to forget also I cleaned up some simple lab equipment that was given by the campus to be used in the first trial practicum later. In the midst of my busy work on cleaning up the lecture equipment every once in a while I was still thinking about what was last afternoon, like a fate that led me back to meet Farhan."Why should we be at the same school?" Thought repeatedly.
I remember the times I spent with Farhan. From how we were initially trying to become friends after both trying to eliminate each other's awkwardness because Farhan expressed his feelings. How Farhan who always hid his feelings for me which in the end he revealed again after seeing me hurt because of Fauzi's actions. Ah that time I myself chose to get hurt for refusing to hear Fauzi's explanation, if that day I could have been a bit of a clear-minded person maybe a misunderstanding between me and Fauzi wouldn't have happened and my wrong relationship with Farhan would never have existed.
Remembering everything back made me think of Fauzi. If only I had the patience to hear Fauzi's explanation, no Farhan would come to see me crying in the middle of the road and there would be no connection with Farhan. Suppose it never happened, maybe I'm still with Fauzi.
I grabbed my phone, I tried to dial Fauzi's number again, hoping it could be connected. But again, just the disappointment I got I still can't call Fauzi's number. Either my number is still on the blacklist on Fauzi's phone or Fauzi is using another number now. Yes I was disappointed, but maybe because too often my calls did not arrive, I was not too disappointed as before.
Again I thought, why did I have to meet Farhan again here? But never mind, it's the way I met Farhan again here, about what happened before it should not be something that disturbs my mind.
