The Bad Day

######

Aya lay down on her small bed, the most comfortable place to unwind after going through her new days of college.

"Thank God today went well, hopefully tomorrow will be the same" he murmured as he looked at the ceiling of the room.

That night Aya, Mita and Cika were gathering in the gazebo. Aya showed her skill in playing the guitar she had just bought when she came home from college.

"Withed..Ra's new guitar? can you play?" Ask Cika while chewing a snack in her hand.

"What do I buy if I can't" Aya began strumming her guitar.

"Try Ra ...can't the song Taxi Rain Yesterday?" Mita challenging.

"Ih.... Kak Mita likes upset songs" said Cika.

"Belgium!" Mita stuck out her tongue.

Aya looked at her two friends, chuckling funnyly with the debate that often occurs between the two people but somehow Aya likes to feel entertained. He started strumming his guitar strings. Trying to play Mita's request song.

Yesterday I heard/You said the word love

It's like the world/As in spring

You came to me/Bring old wounds

I don't want to be/All like before

***Reff**:

I don't want to make love anymore

After I feel peri*

* (Cika sang along with her cry, which immediately got Mita's hand silenced "you've been caged, your voice broke the lyrics" whispered Mita in Cika's ear.

Aya smiled as she continued to sing.

This failure left me helpless

**

I can't feel like I'm smiling anymore

After you left

Let me be alone without you now

Aya ended the song and immediately received applause from Cika and Mita.

"Keren Ra, your voice is good" Mita gave her thumb.

"Yes Ra, you should be grateful that you can rarely get praise from Miss stingy said like Kak Mita" Cika directly get tonyoran in her head by Mita."Have you ever been in a talent search? I'm sure you'll get away with it."

Aya just shook her head.

"Why? Your talent is dear if it is not developed."

"Then said Kak Mita, I'm sure you can be a famous artist maybe even go international, beautiful face, body ok voice no doubt." Cika said stirring.

"Pengen is also Cik, but not given permission to the same ortu."

"Your parents are really stupid?"

"You could say that, ortu I do not like if I get into TV let alone famous. They do not want his personal life to be exposed and become a spectacle of many people. If I'm famous, my family will also be the spotlight. Maybe it was because they felt uncomfortable or maybe it was for the good of me too" Aya looked for the right reason for Mita's question. After that Aya just stared ahead with a blank look, but,

Mita and Cika's guess was just right. Because that's Aya's ideals, he wants to become a singer so he is willing to take vocal lessons and some musical instruments to hone his talents and hobbies, so he wants to be a singer, but what is power because the family background that should not be exposed is also a barrier. Aya was very understanding, it was all done by her papa for the good of herself so that she was safe. So much worry and affection from both parents that sometimes make him feel depressed.

After a long period of silence came the sound of footsteps climbing the stairs. It turns out that mom has a boarding house.

"Sorry ma'am because we're so noisy that it bothers mom downstairs" Aya felt bad.

"Oh no really. I heard someone singing, whose voice is it?" Ask Maria's mother, the hostess' mother.

"Raisha ma'am!" Show Cika and Mita together.

"You sound so sweet, son?"

"Not really Buk but thanks for the compliment." Aya smiled awkwardly in response to Maria's praise.

When the hostess circulated her gaze she just realized there was something different from the place she rented it, the atmosphere there was now very different from before the lights of Tumbler hanging filled the roof roftop, flickering lights are very beautiful especially if seen at night.

"Who installed these lights?" ask Maria.

"Raisha ma'am!" Cika and Mita compact to refer Aya again. Somehow this time Cika and Mita become compact if the point problem points to him. But usually they always fight just because of trivial problems.

Aya immediately nervous, afraid of the anger of the mother of the hostess. "Sorry ma'am, I do not permit it first.but ..if you object I will immediately clean up today."

"Oh.got it - do not even need the mother happy, the place of the mother's boarding house so the better" Maria looks happy smiling and then sitting next to Aya. "You're a pinter, beautiful again. Want to be a future mother-in-law?"

Aya suddenly glued to the ground. And it turns out that not only he was shocked but also his two friends.

"The bus has a single child, he works in Surabaya at one of the banks, his work every day holds money, your life will be guaranteed. Hows it? Want to be a future mother-in-law?" Maria seemed proud to promote her son.

"Mother's children who hold money every day are proud. Not arrogant, I spend ordinary money every day buk." Of course Aya only dared to say it in her heart because of course she did not want to be expelled that day either.

Confused to answer if Aya tried to ask for help from his two friends who had been silent since. But it turns out they throw their faces pretending to do activities somehow, it seems they do not want to be involved in the matchmaking problem. Want to immediately reject Aya but she still needs a place to stay and only then did she feel at home living there. Accepting is impossible. When you feel depressed, an idea suddenly arises.

"I'm sorry about Buk before, I already have a prospective husband who was betrothed by my parents" that's the word that came out of Aya's mouth. At least he did not completely lie because he had been betrothed but Aya refused.

"What is his job? Is he living in Jakarta or here? Is he more handsome than your mother's son?" Maria still hasn't given up, she feels maybe Aya is lying. Maria shows her child portrait on her phone.

Almost Aya spouted her laughter when she saw Maria's mother's son. Aya felt still more handsome two bodyguards at home.

"She's a Buk doctor, and she's on duty in Singapore named Dr.Ezra" to make it more convincing Aya to show a photo of the man she admitted her future husband to Maria.

"Thank God, the photo of Ezra that Papa sent me has not been removed" said Aya.

"It turns out that the handsome also, yes already if you turned out to have been betrothed, then mom saying goodbye first, you sleep not too late," said Miss Maria.

"Yes ma'am" answered everything at once.

Maria immediately went down the stairs with a bad feeling.

"Widih. quite handsome as well, his smile is very sweet sugar cake, can directly diabetes me Ra, and then immediately checked deh same mas Doctor." Cika made her own drama with her centile style while giggling. While Mita just smiled thinly.

Aya let her two friends believe her story about the match, inexplicably today she is too lazy to explain it.

"Your life is full of luck, isn't it Ra? got a pretty face, a good body, a good voice, went to a top university, had a handsome twin brother went to LA, plus your future husband was also a doctor, making you jealous." Cika looked at Aya with a face made sad.

"Sometimes something seems perfect from the outside not necessarily the same reality. Of course, there are many consequences. Be thankful for what you have now, because there may be someone out there who isn't as lucky as you."

"What do I have but that guy doesn't have Ra?" Ask Cika curiously. Because Aya was like talking about someone who was not as lucky as her who thought she was the one who had no luck at all.

"A Freedom" said Aya. Her gaze was blank but implied a long-buried sadness and Mita noticed it.

"Where do you know Raisha's twin sister from?" Mita tried to distract Cika from the question that Cika threw earlier.

"She herself told me, also happened to be yesterday her twin brother video call, so I can see for myself" said Cika.

Aya suddenly left and entered her room without saying goodbye.

"Am I wrong, brother?" Cika asked as she realized Aya's suddenly changed attitude.

"Don't know, it's possible that Raisha is another PMS" replied Mita. In silence, Mita realizes, Aya is hiding something that she does not know.

***

Sure enough, that morning Aya the arrival of her monthly guests and because of her cramped stomach made her wake up bad luck. Sufferers Aya has not been enough to get there, the online motorcycle taxi that he rides his tires leaked requires him to ride a public vehicle. Because having to go up and down changing vehicles made it late even though today was his first day Ospek.

Arriving at the campus he immediately ran towards the line of MABA who had lined up in the field.

"You've just come to Sher?" Asked Citra who happened to be standing next to him.

"Yo'i" replied Aya ngos-ngosan.

Suddenly a hysterical sound from some students including Citra, made Aya wonder what the hell made them so excited. Aya asked Citra, and Citra directly pointed towards the front. Sontak Aya straightened her gaze towards the direction Citra was aiming at, her eyes widened in disbelief.

Is this world so narrow why since he set foot in this city he has continued to meet the creature he calls the angel of death. What sins did Aya commit in her inner past.

Alan and his gang were also several students, all wearing alma mater suits, lined up at the very front facing the MABA line.

"Who is Cit?" Ask Asher KW aka Aya curious.

"They are our seniors who this year served as ospek committee, who I know is just Alan's brother as gang." Bisik Citra's.

"Sir Alan??"

"Yes the guy who wears his own red armband is called Alan's sister. If the one on the left is called Kak Romi and on the right is called Kak Nando. The three of them are one gang and are very famous on this campus because of the visuals are okay plus the brain is smart but the most famous and many fans yes just brother Alan, Alan, even he was nicknamed the Crown Prince of the campus, his super duper handsome face, his indifferent, cold and unapproachable nature that made him attractive. Many girls in this campus are challenged to be able to get her and many are also crazy about her including me anyway." Imagery giggling.

"Campus crown prince? Not wrong, though? A fitting nickname for him was the crown prince of the king of hell. It just fits." Inner Aya while laughing to herself.

"Well, what are you, Sher?" The image looked at Aya in wonder.

"It's nothing... What were you gonna say?"

"Oh. I just want to say that he's the president of BEM at this college."

"What! What did he just say?" Inner Aya did not believe, it turned out that the bad day was not enough to get there. In the future he will often meet super nyebelin people and very do not want him to meet on the face of this earth "Damn....eh no-no it seems like the nickname is too good for him." he inner while shaking his head. "Kata Citra was cold, right? what nickname would suit him? what is the Ice Mountain or Yeti? uh. I think it's too horrifying. How about a two-door refrigerator? Or a snowman? okay Snowman." In Aya's heart monologue itself. Without realizing it, his face smiled to itself.

"Hey Elo.. who was smiling to himself !" Shouted Nando pointing at Aya.

"E.uh.....L'm I?" Appoint Aya to herself, after realizing what she did.

"Yes elo whose whiskers look like catfish." Nando's chirps made everyone laugh.

"Huffpff.... What else is this God's temptation?" inner Aya.

"Lo's splinter forward here!" Nando's orders.

Aya immediately obeyed him and stood right in front of Nando, "Gue saw that Lo was late in, right?!" Nando stared intently while smiling with a grin.

"Yes, that's my ojek__"

"Gue doesn't need a reason. All you have to know is, anyone who's late has to be legal...." And before Nando continued his sentence he approached Alan first whispered something and immediately embraced Alan.

"Round the field ten times!" Nando's orders.

"What's?....But I'm not the only one late. My friend was late too."

"Lo don't lie! I just saw Lo doang who was late."

"But kak__"

"Once again my protest has been increased to fifteen times!"

And with a forced finally Aya ran around the field which is almost equal to the bung Karno stadium. Other MABA have gone somewhere, maybe they are touring around campus or getting acquainted with the lecturers.

"Gue feels discriminated, when the late I do not pray but why I am the only one in the law. If only I fit again do not come the moon, run ten times mah small. But this....aduh...sak." not yet Aya finish the sentence he already felt pain in the abdomen while grimacing Aya as hard as possible to withstand the pain by continuing to run. The temple was already full of sweat because it happened that the afternoon weather was very hot. His face had already started to pale and his steps were slowly slowing down. Though only a little longer Aya completed her sentence but suddenly her vision began to blur, and soon it became dark.

BRUK!!

A person swiftly caught Aya's body, before she was completely unconscious a faint sound could be heard.

"The weak." And finally Aya was completely unconscious.

***

A pair of moving eyelids blinked trying to adjust the light around.

"Where is this?" Gumam Aya lirih's.

"You are now in the infirmary" replied a woman wearing a suit like a doctor sitting beside Aya's bed.

The doctor looked at Aya fully inquiringly, "you're on the arrival of the moon huh? You're a girl but why look like a man?"

Suddenly the woman's doctor's question made Aya surprised, it could not be so fast that his disguise was revealed even just two days he entered college.

Seriate....
