Even & Odd

27

Fersya is in the national library now. National Library in Central Jakarta near Monas area. And guess who Fersya went there. If you guess Aries, the answer is wrong. And if you answer Farsya, the answer is wrong too. Farsya is still in recovery period because of her fever -- actually more because Mama the twins forbid.

Fersya went to the national library with Niko. I haven't heard Niko's name in a long time. But Fersya apologized to Aries fans, the man could not come -- even though he said he really wanted to join Fersya with Niko -- because he had to practice with Mr. Andre. In addition to Fersya and Niko who still have to fight to enter the dream campus at UTBK, Aries also has to achieve his dreams by practicing often.

Fersya came there to study. Yes it is, its name is also a library, but if anyone has other intentions there, that is their business.

Fersya and Niko were waiting for the elevator to open in order to deliver them to the desired floor. During the trip from home to the national library, it can be counted fingers how often they engage in conversation. When they entered the elevator and I don't know Fersya should feel grateful or not, because the elevator they entered now is empty. Just filled by the two of them.

While in the elevator, Fersya kept looking at the small screen above the elevator door. The small screen displays a number that continues to grow as this elevator rises. And while looking at the small screen, Fersya felt that this elevator was very slow, because they had not reached the floor they wanted.

"Lo's afraid of small, narrow rooms, Fer?"

Niko who suddenly asked him made Fersya surprised and looked at him in annoyance. Niko who was stared at like that only raised both eyebrows, confused what was wrong with her question.

"No, I don't have Claustrophobia."

The elevator doors opened and they immediately exited, skirting the room and preparing to search for the targeted book.

"Why did you see the number above the elevator door?"

"Ooohh, that's okay. Hehe." Fersya was wailing, it seemed like this was an opportunity for Fersya to escape from this awkward atmosphere.

"Hm... I guess our goals will be different, so what if we just split?"

"okay." Niko looked at her wrist that was wrapped around the watch and continued her speech. "It's lunchtime we meet in the cafeteria. Do you know where it is?"

"You know. Yes, I went there first." said Fersya while pointing to the right side of the room. They split up there.

Fersya has to tell you why she got stuck here alone with Niko. This idea was none other than that of his own twin brother, Farsya. Whether the twin forgets or pretends not to know the relationship between Fersya and Niko?

Fersya's relationship with Niko is not not bad, but it can not be said to be good as well. Ah, anyway Fersya's relationship with Niko is awkward, so if there is no Farsya, yes so it will be, as it is now. Either only Fersya who feels awkward or Niko as well, but Fersya has never told the story, although Niko was his little friend and Farsya, but Niko played with Farsya more often than he did. It is not wrong if finally only Niko and Farsya are close to the relationship.

So off the mark, back again, Fersya will tell why Fersya can end up here alone with Niko.

***

Fersya was studying in his room. Just count the week to the implementation of UTBK and just count the days to UTBK registration. The good news is that both Fersya and Mama are no longer arguing about the campus or the department that Fersya wants.

Not giving up, but Fani really tried to understand and follow the wishes of her son. Fersya felt both delighted and moved. And well, just know that the twin advised Fersya to study with Niko only. Both.

Of course Fersya refused, it is better for Fersya to learn on his own than to study with Niko. But unfortunately, Niko had already arrived in front of her house in neat clothes. Farsya who knew that his little friend had arrived in front of his house immediately approached Niko in front of the house.

So Farsha called him and sent him there.

"Lo really asked Niko to study with me?" and Farsya's answer just nodded innocently.

"Guruan gih there, get ready! Niko is ready."

Fersya glanced at Niko, and the one being stared at only raised both eyebrows. Fersya sighed and turned around to enter the house. Go into the room and just replace the pants with jeans only. Luckily Fersya had already taken a shower so it didn't take too long to prepare.

Fersya said goodbye to his mother and walked out of the house. It turned out that there was still Farsya who was chatting with Niko. Then, why not Farsya who accompanied Niko to study. Sometimes his twin brother did manage to upset him.

And so it ended, Fersya and Niko immediately set off on Niko's motorcycle and during the trip the conversation was filled with only pleasantry questions.

***

Fersya had found the book he was looking for, he immediately looked for a nearby seat and noted down anything that was important and needed to be recorded. Almost an hour Fersya struggled with his book, until finally there was a phone call from someone. Fersya hoped that the one who called was Aries, but apparently Niko called him.

Fersya already knew what Niko meant by calling her, so Fersya switched off the call without having to answer her first. Fersya tidied up the notebooks and books he borrowed. Walking towards the shelf where Fersya took his loan book.

After putting the book down, Fersya walked out of the room and walked towards the canteen. Arriving at the cafeteria, Fersya was lost in looking for where Niko was, but Fersya did not find him. Only Fersya wanted to contact Niko, someone held her shoulder.

"Gue thought you were here first."

Instead of hinting at Fersya's words, Niko walked to the cafeteria table by an empty window. The canteen is quite crowded, because it is already lunchtime.

Fersya put her bag near her seat and looked at Niko. Niko looked back at him. Fersya sighed, the two of them couldn't keep going like this. More precisely Fersya who can not stand to be quiet just like this.

"Lo what do you want to eat? Let me go to the store."

"I am waiting for you again. Let me go to the store. What do you want to eat?"

"Yes already. Hm..." Fersya looked around at the shop on the right. Actually Fersya had not eaten noodles for a long time, but Fersya was also a very laper.

"Gue pop noodles with rice."

"Pop noodles anyway? Of the many shops that provide good food you want noodles?" niko asked as she folded her hands in front of her chest.

"Yeee, you don't know if noodles are one of the most delicious foods in the world. It's cheap again."

"Again agree. Haha."

"It's like I'm like you. What do you want to drink?"

"White water."

Niko nodded and walked towards the tavern near the canteen entrance. The store sells snacks such as cikis, biscuits, wafers and so on. Like a mini market. Fersya waited for Niko to bring her order while playing hp.

Fersya wanted to contact Aries, wanting to ask what the man was currently doing. Have eaten, or still training with Mr. Andre. Okay, Fersya doesn't know since when his feelings for Aries developed like this.

At first Fersya only considers Aries as his best friend, but over time coupled with Aries attitude that sometimes makes Fersya's heart beat abnormally makes Fersya feel upset. But now it seemed like Fersya was already unwilling to cover up his own feelings.

No, Fersya does not want to express his feelings for Aries. Fersya would never do that, except in desperate circumstances like Aries shunning him. If that happens, Fersya will pull Aries back by expressing his feelings. For now let only himself and God alone know how Fersya feels for Aries.

Fersya was still dumbstruck while staring at his dark screen until Niko came carrying a tray containing two Soto-flavored Pop Noodles, a plate of rice and two bottles of mineral water.

"Thanks." said Fersya while taking his Pop Noodles and scooping rice into his noodle pop. There was no conversation during the meal. Niko first finished the food and immediately took a bottle of water that was still on the tray he was carrying earlier, then downed it until the contents were half a bottle.

Niko waited for Fersya while playing her phone, the man was chatan with Farsya. Farsya kept asking about Fersya. Niko told me why not just chat alone, but Farsya said he did not want to interfere with his twin sister's learning. When insinuated that Farsya even interfere with learning Niko, the woman even sent a grin emot only.

"What else is this?" niko's attention shifted from her phone to Fersya, before replying to Fersya's words, Niko sent a short reply to Farsya first.

"Hm...home?"

"Yes, come on."

"Patience first time Fer. I guess you didn't feel at home with me."

Fersya who had been holding his bag to his shoulder had to lower it again and throw his lips towards Niko.

"It was so awkward, how would I feel at home."

Bodo very deh, mending Fersya honest invitation?

"Gue envied you."

"Huh? Suddenly?"

"Not suddenly. From the beginning actually. I envy you because you have the air so you will not feel lonely. I envy you who can express what you want."

Fersya knows Niko hasn't finished speaking yet, but there are some that Fersya must correct. "Indeed nice to have a brother, let alone twins but of course it's not good is when lo and twin brother lo is very different and your parents compare you two. Okay, if that's the case I'm not too anxious, because this world is about comparison, right?

Hot-cold, good-bad, cute. It all depends on the views of each person, so I try to appreciate it, even if it hurts my heart. And about expressing desire, I don't know why you should be envious in that part because honestly, want me to north my desire or not it's nothing to lose. But thankfully it was then, now my order is more open to my wishes."

"That's what I mean." replied Niko. Fersya just shriveled confusedly.

"There are some children who are not free to express their wishes Fer. I'm example. What yes.I feel I never got a chance for the north. You know ortu always leave in the morning to go home. Departing while I was still molor and coming home when I was also molor. Where is my chance to argue? Nonexistent. Although you are often rejected because of your wishes, you have not expressed your wishes, right? Nothing else is hidden."

Fersya sighed and put his back on the back of the chair. Why is this conversation so heavy.

"All of a sudden, did I tell you the same story?"

"Huh? No, just relax. Just, I don't know how to respond to it, because our situation is different."

"Haaa... do I have to run away from home to be conscious?"

"My indictment?"

"Lhooo emang lo ever run away from home?" pause for a moment, then Niko continued her words. "Ooohhh, so that four days to Bandung was one of the events to run away from home? Ih pinter really run away all tours."

Fersya just smashed his lips, annoyed at Niko's insinuation.

"But do not try to escape from the house deh Nik, instead of calm and even miesel later."

"Why is it?"

"Yes, you're leaving without parental permission."

Niko simply threw her gaze towards the window, looking at the scene outside the building.

"Seriously I'm Nik. The opportunity is always there while you are alive, whenever, wherever it must be. Stay lo only realize not if it's a chance for you, or lo want to take or not that opportunity. Same as earlier, you must be if you want to go wherever permission ortu first right? It's a chance for you, but you're not aware."

Fersya leaned his body towards Niko, folding both of his hands onto the table. "After my family you always spend time on Sundays, right? That's your family time, right? So use the opportunity to make northin lo desire, I'm sure your parents will understand. What do you want anyway?"

"Lo tau if nyokap pharmaceutical children especially bokap doctor and emang big family I'm the descendant of all doctors, but I have absolutely no interest there. Want me to charge until whenever tetep will not be stuck in me. And Ortu did not directly declare that I also have to follow in their footsteps, but I do not want to."

Fersya sighed and started his counseling session again. "Take time Family time you discuss the problem. Although maybe the end will be stormy like me, as you said earlier as if you already feel relieved and no one should be harbored anymore."

Fersya looked at the screen hpnya which also has not been any notifications from Aries, then put the hp into the bag of jeans.

"Take off yuk, it's cloudy and it's raining."
