First Love "In April"
GANTUNGA BAG
"sook rii hunted.later got angry" said Della while running to pull my hand.
"heii that's over there? why so long!" said one of the guidance sisters with a high enough tone.
" quick Rii" said Della who still clasped my hand tightly.
the new school year began, as usual the activity of new children is always in the beginning with the School Orientation Period, various kinds of games and other MOS busyness coloring the beginning of my entry into school.
Today is the last day that I and the other students are going through MOS, and it's time we received a class split.
della and I were in the same class as my two best friends Lila and Ema in a different class than me.
"Thank God we can be in the class of ri" said Della with her hands wrapped between my arms.
while the account only smiled thinly with eyes that continued to pay attention around.
In one class of 26 students and girls, my eyes did not stop looking at the new corners of my class and filled with new friends.
After all the angles I looked at at the end of his eyes were fixed on a bag hanger attached to the bag of someone sitting not far across from me.
"His heart is good" said I'm kind of familiar with him that I don't even know his name.
He just smiled thinly at me.
"Where do you buy it?"ask me curious.
"Bikin himself" he said slowly.
"oh yeah..can you make this?" I said amazed and enthusiastic while holding the hanger of his bag made of burlap sacks and coconut shell.
Suddenly I realized from my behavior that was familiar with him, while looking down slowly I took off the hanger of his that was in my grasp.
"em.knowin I'm Riri" said I try to break the discomfort I feel.
"I'm Raidil, call Aja Aidil" he said, welcoming my hand.
"oh Raidil's".
"You want this hanger?"he added.
I was surprised to hear what he said.
"don't worry, I'm just nanya" I said.
"It's okay to take it, nih." he said, taking the hanger off the side of the bag and shoving it at me.
"i can make it again, besides not difficult" he added.
"Eh, is this really for me?" I took the hanger from his hand.
"yes, take it" said his friendly smile.
Deg
My heart immediately beat strongly after seeing that smile.
"What is Ri?" Della glanced curiously.
"Ah is nothing" I quickly put the hanger into the bag with Raidil glancing in wonder with a faint smile at my behavior.
***
we have now spent almost half a semester.
The first hour was over, Bell break rang filled the classroom and Della swiftly embraced me with one hand.
"mayo.quickly Rii, will hunt full of his canteen" said Della.
One of the things I didn't like most about this school was going to the cafeteria and jostling.
with only one canteen that was not too big and quite a lot of students made the atmosphere quite make me feel a little lazy to go to that area.
"You go first, I don't want to go to the cafeteria anymore" I said sluggishly.
"Come on dong, I'm laper Rii. You wait outside aja deh, yah.yah plis" said Della pleading.
"Yes, but not for long !" my speech was short with slow steps.
as soon as he was taken to the canteen, I sat and waited right in front of the cafeteria which was also next to the teacher's room, I looked at those who were busy jostling in the canteen, one of them was Della.
"the fried bang is five bamboo shoots!" della shouted loudly to the canteen guard brothers who sounded out, while I only smiled when I saw Della from a distance.
" so persistent Dell" I said in my heart while laughing.
long wait, Della finally came out.
"Look Rii, we're back" said Della, who woke me from a short daydream because I was tired of waiting.
From the cafeteria to my classroom was not that far away, so I could quickly sit back on my bench which always felt comfortable.
As usual my eyes began to sweep every corner of the class until I finally looked at the classroom door and saw them my classmates passing in and out of the classroom, not infrequently sometimes I also count how many times they come out and how many times they enter just throw my boredom.
Deg
my heart beats again without me knowing why.
I looked at the corner of the classroom door, stood with a friendly smile He was there with his friends, and not infrequently accidentally our eyes met.
no other chat has ever happened since that first meeting about the bag hanger he gave me.
And strangely my heart always beats so fast when I'm just staring at it.
once I tried to muster up my courage to just say "hi" but it never happened, because all of a sudden all the courage I gathered disappeared and became nervous as he walked toward the bench or just passed by next to me.
I'm confused by how I feel right now, whether this is love or just I like or admire it.
