CHAPTER 7 HEART GYMNASTICS



A beautiful morning with a beautiful hope. This is the second day I became a student here and made me even more excited. Not only the science I want to look for, but also solve a – teki puzzle.


A smile rose in my lips as I looked back at the bracelet that Rauf had given me yesterday. The worry that once haunted me, has now vanished without a breath. I can see that Rauf is a good person.


I was relieved to know that Rauf, like me, was just an ordinary student.


My memory goes back to the events of this morning, when I was about to take breakfast and hear – kusuk kusk people talk about Rauf.


“Hey, you know not a male – named Rauf from chemistry class?”, asked one of the students to his friend.


“That's it, in our generation he is the most handsome. How could I have missed such a hot” news,


“If ranked anyway yes, he is the most handsome, but there is still a handsome coke besides dia”, woe to the other student who looks ordinary with Rauf.


“Hais, stay, Rauf the most dream”,


“He has a girlfriend yet huh? I want a list, so backup also no problem”,


“If this model guy I'm sure already have”, someone has,


Initially, I wanted to leave after taking breakfast, because honestly I was not interested in their discussion, especially about Rauf, the – male who made me anxious and afraid. However, my steps came to a halt when I heard their next words.


“Rauf was also one of the students who obtained a scholarship here. There are rumors that say that he is an orphan”,


“I instead think that he is the son of the owner of this school, because it is so close to Mr. Badir”,


Mr Badir? So that's the name of the owner of this school?


I sharpened my hearing as their language deepened.


“At first I also thought Rauf was Mr. Badir's son, but it turns out that because Rauf was one of the students who excelled in chemistry even surpassing seniors over him”,


“Means because of the achievement dong?”,


“Iya of course”,


Thankfully, Rauf is just like me. Relieved it. I don't have to worry about yesterday.


And I'm sure he won't be leaking yesterday's incident. I can see he's a good guy.


...***...


When the break came, I immediately headed to Yira's class to go to the cafeteria together. Upon arrival at the cafeteria, I immediately chose a seat near the corner. Yira immediately ordered the food and took it to the place we had chosen.


The atmosphere of the cafeteria was very crowded. Laughter from students who were there added to the crowd of the canteen.


“Sa, how was your class today?”, asked Yira to me while sipping her tomato juice.


“Seru really, Ra. Many things I got today”, I answered while drinking my pocket juice.


“Honestly, it's exciting to be able to school here. The facilities are loh, Sa is very complete, sophisticated pula”, Yira again praised the place she attended school.


“Yes, you're right, Ra. So, we can be easier to learn and find many references”, reply me while looking out the window.


The gaze of my eyes stopped right at a – male man who was walking towards the canteen. He is Rauf. Many pairs of schoolgirls eyes were staring at him while clucking in admiration. Without realizing it, a smile rose on my lips.


Deg


There was a feeling I had a hard time understanding that made my heart pump faster than usual. My eyes were not separated from him. He looked so good in the sports clothes he still wore.


The sweat that poured into him made him even more dazzling. He sat in the corner opposite me by himself. Then, there were some students who approached her, but she refused subtly.


“Yes Allah, Ra. Why are you laughing? Demonic possession where are you?”, my question is a little panic mixed with wonder.


All pairs of eyes stared in the direction where I and Yira were, including Rauf. I could see, he stared at me in astonishment.


Oh my gosh, so embarrassed. Yira also did use the event laugh – ketiwi not clear that, big again laugh. My move while clapping his hands.


“Psstt, Ra. Pelanin kepawanya, shy diih diiatin everyone”, scold Yira who immediately stopped her laughter.


“Hehe, detachment”, he said sambir cengar – grin and apologized to everyone.


And without me knowing, it turns out there are other – male students who are observing me besides Rauf.


...***...


The orange sky came back to greet me. Do not forget the wind that flew the crown back on my head. I'm getting ready to go back to the dorm. I was going home with Yira, but I didn't, because I was a little late today.


The journey from my class to the dormitory was approximately fifteen minutes. The direction to my dormitory turns right, while turning left towards the boys dormitory area. The atmosphere of the afternoon was quite crowded with students walking downstream.


When I was about to head to my dorm area, my steps stopped when I saw someone who looked familiar to me. As I approached, I knew who was standing on the left side of the road.


“New home?”, he asked while giving me a glass of cold chocolate.


“Hm”, back those two consonants represent my answer.


My hands stretched out to pick up the cold chocolate and immediately sat down on a chair not far from where I was standing. Then, start drinking it, because I'm honestly thirsty.


“Baik”, he said he was leaving from there.


“Still yes, Rauf. Coincidentally I am indeed again haus”, said I who made his steps stopped. “And sorry, for ever suspecting you”, I continued again while looking towards the orange sky.


Rauf smiled and also followed my direction. I saw him looking up at the sky that afternoon. Arrived – arrived, my heart pounding, my heart rustling.


I turned my gaze away from her and stood up to continue on my way to the delayed dormitory.


“Ehm, it is already afternoon and magrib time will arrive. Instead, we go back to dorm”, after saying that I immediately walk to the dormitory.


Unbeknownst to me, Rauf smiled as he looked at my back that was getting further away.


All the way, I couldn't stop smiling. Many pairs of eyes that look at me astonished, cynical, and amused. And I don't really care about that.


Arriving at the room, I lay down for a moment my body and will immediately clean up after Yira comes out of the bathroom.


Recollecting the smile I saw from a Rauf who was able to make me gobsmack. How not, for the first time I saw her smile so sweetly. My heart rippled back while smiling to itself.


I headed towards the balcony while enjoying the afternoon that was coming to an end. I see there are still a lot of dorm kids downstairs. There are those who are discussing, playing badminton, and others.


Oh my God, what's wrong with me? Why did I suddenly go crazy for not being able to stop smiling?


And what kind of feeling am I feeling right now? Why is it so hard for me to understand?


Why does his smile make me unable to think clearly? What's wrong with me?


As I was engrossed in wandering with my own thoughts, Yira came over and patted me on the shoulder.


“Astaughfirullah, Ra. Ngagetin aja sih”, my grumbling while walking inside.


“Udah I called, you're the one who didn't hear. Even as comfortable as – smiles are not clear. Don't – don't think of the guy in the cafeteria earlier huh? Cieee”, he shouted from the balcony, but I chose to go into the bathroom.
