Dusk Star

Chapter 13 Road

Tettt

The bell that was always waiting for the students finally rang as well. The children in Sha class breathed a sigh of relief because the math lesson from Mr. Imran had ended, it felt like they wanted to immediately fall on the bed they thought.

So did Sha, Bila and Naila who immediately cleaned their goods to go home. The three of them joked along the corridor, laughing at Nai who was almost asleep when Mr. Imran's lesson was. Arriving at the gate Nai slapped his forehead slowly and immediately ran towards a man who had been waiting for him since.

“Sorry yes I forgot.”

Joseph glanced at Nai's friend who was looking at them with a questioning look. Joseph moved his eyes toward Nai and his friend. After understanding, Yusuf waited for Nai while riding his motorcycle.

“Sorry yes I have business tomorrow I'm clearin.” Nai was seen in a hurry either because he was in a hurry or avoiding sharp stares when.

“Ish tuh son yes,” grumbled When upset.

“Udah Bil why should emotions sih.” Sha tried to calm Bila down.

“Ya time she-“ When not so continue his words when see the look of sad face Sha.

When he embraces her and asks if Sha is okay. Sha only answered a smile that if sure forced. If you are sorry for not being able to accompany Sha waiting for angkot.

“Sha I first yes.”

“Iya Bil already there kasian your driver.”

As usual Sha waited for public transportation at the stop alone because Nai and Bila had been picked up by the driver. Oh yes about the incident this morning he had also forgotten a little, because he did not want his friendship destroyed just because of trivial things like that earlier. He also did not ask Nai and Nai did not discuss it.

While waiting for angkot , suddenly came a red ninja motorcycle approached him, the rider opened his helmet and saw the figure of Akbar.

Yes, the ninja bike ride was Akbar who invited him to go home together. At first she refused but akbar continued to force her and scare her so that she would go home with him. After being invited to go home with Akbar directing his motorcycle to the mall first.

“Loh kak ko we are here anyway, this is not the way to go home I kak.”

Sha is confused because this is not the direction to his house, although it is still included with the area still it should not be here the direction of Sha's house.

“Oh it wants to go to the mall first buy a gift, later on the night mamahnya Yusuf birthday,” shouted Akbar for fear Sha did not hear it.

Arriving at the Sha mall immediately went down and Akbar parked his bike first, casually Akbar took Sha's hand and invited him in. The uncomfortable Sha immediately let go of Akbar's hand.

They also walked together in the mall while looking at the store that was considered good.

“Inget is not the first time we met at this deket mall souvenir shop.” Akbar spoke while imagining the time he first met sha.

Sha also just lowered his head in shame about the events of that time. Sha was not aware that Akbar was watching him because Sha kept his head down to the point of not realizing that they had reached his destination, the shoe store..

“Emang floor more interesting yes than I arrived from earlier lo nduk aja. What are you looking for anyway?” Akbar lowered his head as he slid down the floor.

“Emm, it's okay ka,” replied Sha a little nervous.

Akbar invites Sha to enter the shoe store. There they are greeted by the shopkeeper, Akbar asks some brands of shoes and the shopkeeper tells Akbar to follow him so that Akbar follows the shopkeeper and leaves Sha alone.

Sha who stayed also looked at the shoes that were there. Sha was glued to see a peach-colored shoe with a flower decoration in the middle. He imagined if he was wearing the shoes until the clap on his shoulder resuscitated him. Sha hastily brushed off his delusion when he saw Akbar had returned to his presence with two shoes.

“Emm Sha according to lo better black or tosca?” tanya Akbar while giving the shoes to Sha to look at.

Sha was silent for a moment watching the two women's shoes in his hand.

“According to me it is better that black sis, the effect is more simple and elegant but does not eliminate the glamour side.” Sha smiled sweetly and gave the shoes to Akbar again.

“Yasudah I took the black ones yes,” said akbar to the shopkeeper while giving his shoes to be wrapped and on note.

Akbar paid for it and after that they went to the foodcurt to eat first. Sha just agreed to eat first even though a little anxious because it must have come home late. Fortunately, he had told his mother first if he was going home late.

“Sha want what message?”

They entered one of the restaurants famous for its steak. The waiter recommended the restaurant's flagship meal, Akbar seemed interested in trying it so he ordered it.

“Samain aja kak.”

“Oke mbak earlier 2 yes.”

“Good in wait ya mas, mbak.”

Sha looked nervous and twisted his uniform. Akbar was surprised and asked.

“Kakak bought those shoes for Mama kak Yusuf?” tanya Sha was curious.

Akbar simply nodded as the waiter delivered their order.

“Hmm.”

“Why Sha?” Akbar raised his eyebrows.

“Kok brother knows what size is no?”

“Tadi nanya Yusuf.”

Sha just be oh. The two fell silent again and ate their food.

“Kak, kok brother ngajak me anyway he said already know with Nai?” Sha said nervously afraid of speaking wrongly.

“Can't be the first?” Akbar asks back which makes Sha clumsy.

“Bby anyway but.”

“Nai.” Akbar continued Sha's sentence. Sha just nodded.

“Gue it already considers Nai like my own sister let alone I am an only child, for me Nai like a sister who must be protected.”

Nai must have melted hearing Akbar's words. Wait if you think your sister means something..

“So sister just think of Nai as sister?” tanya Sha was shocked.

“Huum, Nai is chatty and most fun looking for people's attention. Maybe because it is rarely noticed his parents so often play to my house.”

“Where are Nai's parents?” it looks like Sha has contracted Nai's virus.

“After I work, do not know what work to not pay attention to his son. Even at that time his son in the hospital was just in the look a day only abis it was in stay again fortunately there was my Mama who took care of.”

Sha is surprised if it turns out that Nai is a child who is always independent who always holds everything by himself, the cheerful Nai must be sad in his parents' lives.

“Sha done?” Sha just nodded.

“Bone yuk,” take Akbar who is only nodded by Sha.

After eating they rushed to go home because the time had already shown at five in the afternoon. Along the way home this time they engage in exciting talks as if meeting with an old friend who has been familiar. Sha was also surprised that he could be as open as it was to foreign people when with If only it took a long adjustment.

Sha sincerely thanks because today Akbar made him talk and laugh a lot.

“That I should be grateful because today you already want me to take the road also buy gift hehe.” Akbar looks wrong because of what. Sha smiled as well.

“Then I go home first yes Sha greetings to your parents, sorry yes no part because there is an appointment to pick up nyokap.”

“Oh yes it's okay brother."

“One more time thank you yes,” said Akbar sincerely.

“Sama-sama, be careful on the road huh kak.”

Akbar waved his hand and Sha walked into the house. After chatting with his mother who was watching television Sha immediately parted to enter the room.

Arriving in the room Sha immediately broke his body because he felt today very tired not to mention tomorrow must school. He got up because his mother called him to eat and clean.

***

Nai asks Yusuf to go to his house first because Nai does not want to go to the mall in uniform. After taking Joseph in, Nai immediately went to his room to change clothes.

Before long nai also came out wearing a light blue blouse with matching jeans that are a little girly and his hands carry a silver slin bag. Yusuf was also fascinated by Nai's appointment, which clamped a little hair on the right side and wore pink lip tint to make Naila's face that is natural without makeup polish becomes more beautiful. Joseph saw it too.

“Sorry yes old brother,” while checking his goods for fear that someone is left behind.

Not hearing Yusuf's reaction, Nai puffed his head and looked straight into Joseph's firm eyes.Nai felt his heart beating so fast as if he was chasing something. Soon Nai turned his gaze in the other direction.

“Kak ko bengong , there is something wrong with my clothes,” while tidying up his clothes and wagging his hands in front of Joseph's face.

“Eh not kok lo pretty,” his words slow down the word beautiful but nai clearly heard it because their distance is not so far away.

This makes Nai blushing. Nai overcame his nervousness by inviting Joseph to leave immediately, fearing that he would return to Malaman.After they say goodbye to Nai's servants they immediately departed.

During the journey no one started the conversation, Nai held tightly onto Joseph's sturdy back while Joseph silently glanced at Nai who was in his bonbar. I don't know since when Joseph started to like his time when he was with Nai.

30 Minutes later they finally arrived at the destination of the famous mall in Bandung. They began to enter the courtyard of the mall, first entering the souvenir shop. As the initial purpose of Yusuf invites Nai the way is to help him choose a gift for his mama's birthday tomorrow night.

They began to look around after it was felt that there was nothing suitable for them to come out of the store again, actually Nai who chose tenpat and Joseph just followed it. Nai invites Joseph to the jewelry store and they enter the jewelry store. The confused Nai did not know what to do, finally Nai looked around at the necklace in the storefront.

“Sister usually mom sister likes necklace or jewelry which how?” asked Nai while looking at the jewelry in the store.

Joseph scratched his nape confused, he also did not know. Nai only resigned when Joseph did not give him direction. Nai's eyes went straight towards the flower-robed necklace with a pink jewel in the middle.

“Kak if this is how, see?” Nai showed Joseph a beautiful necklace.

“The necklace is good, if you like the necklace we can take it for gift.“ Yusuf commented making Nai relieved.

Inadvertently Nai's eyes glanced towards the easy red gem-shaped ring love in the middle. Joseph looked at Nai's eyes. Nai instantly distracted the moment Joseph looked at him.

“So according to lo necklace was good gak?” joseph asked to make sure.

“Good as it seems suitable for Mama lo. Not too flashy but looks luxurious if in use, let alone the same Mama lo.”

“Ya already let me choose this one just let's go to the cashier,” take Yusuf.

“Nai anyone want you to buy?” joseph asked after they left the jewelry store.

“Hmm.” Nai seemed to think then he began to pull Yusuf to go around in the mall.

After being satisfied around, they finally ate at Nai's favorite restaurant, which Nai said was very good. Joseph simply followed her, he could not possibly refuse to see how energetic the girl was when Joseph offered to treat her to a meal.

Their order was in the making and now Nai and Yusuf were sitting sweetly at the table by the window that could see into the mall. Nai looks cool to enjoy the atmosphere of the restaurant that is crowded with visitors while occasionally looking into the mall which is also crowded with visitors.

A confused Yusuf starts to open his phone because there is no activity, until orders come the focus of the two teenagers is diverted and Nai immediately enthusiastic to eat.

“Just kak lo have to try the menu that I chose this.” Nai handed Joseph a plate containing food.

Nai waited anxiously for Yusuf's comment, Nai's adorable expression making Yusuf deliberately slow down his chewing.

“Enak,” comments Yusuf who made Nai smile widely then started eating his order.

“Emm, Nai thanks for today already want to nemenin I bought a gift,” while eating his food and thrusting a square box to Nai.

“Iya equally sis. Oh yes this is what?” Nai did not think that Joseph would give him a gift.

“Only as a thank you for you already want to nemenin today.”

Nai opened the box to his surprise and opened it, it turned out to be the ring he saw earlier.

“This makes me kak.” Nai half-believed and had pinched himself which made Joseph chuckle slowly to see his behavior.

“Iya, as a thank you to lo.”

Nai was a little moved by this unexpected gift, even though his birthday was still far away.

“Wah maxih much yes sak,” said Nai sincerely while wearing his ring which turned out to be very fitting on his ring finger.

“Gue will pack this if there is a big event sis,” promise Nai with enthusiasm and happy binary from the highlight of his eyes.

“Kok not every day anyway Nai?” asked Yusuf astonished.

“Kak lo forget that our school prohibits students from wearing jewelry except earrings for women.”

“Hehehe Yes.”

“This time want to go straight home?”

Nai turned the ball a little lazy. His eyes glanced towards the groceries that had already filled the chair beside Nai.

“Lo do not see my shopping already a lot, ntar if the tekor can be secured again atm I.”

Again Joseph chuckled with Nai. It's true they've been driving around the mall for almost three hours.

During the tour Nai always eat snacks or drink hits drinks. Fortunately, Joseph was not a person who was easily tired and hungry so strong to follow the wishes of Nai.

“So want to go straight home?” joseph seduced them when they came out of the mall.

Nai's eyes glanced and thrust the groceries in his hand toward Joseph. “I'll never catch up.”

“So not too late?” asked Yusuf astonished.

Nai simply shook his head innocently and walked ahead of Joseph who was dumbfounded. So Joseph thought if every girl was like Nai when she was shopping. Yusuf wondered if for example, assets, every shopping so much whether the goods will not accumulate. Only girls know about that. It was better now to take Nai and also go home he was tired.
