That morning as usual I left with Arkan, when I arrived at school I must have come to the parking lot and in the corridor will cross with Niana or Shanum. And that morning Arkan and I met Shanum and then Arkan excitedly drove me to the front of the classroom.
"Din's spirit of learning" he said ruffled my hair
"Yes" I answered while tidying my hair even though I did not like it because my hair would be messy but yes I am happy of course.
"Shanum's spirit of learning" he said with a smile that made me jealous because for years he usually only gave me a smile and those eyes only looked at Dinta Syakira.
"Yes Arkan, you too" Shanum said with a beautiful smile. I just smiled and then Arkan left and we went to class.
That day Niana did not go to school because there was family business in Bandung. The first lesson of the day was completely free and I just chatted with Shanum and got bored.
"Din, yuk out?" Bring Shanum.
"Why what?" My toot.
"Yes why Din cake, while around the school as well, I also do not know all, seriously" he said
"Mending to the cafeteria" I said.
"May, the important thing is not in the gini class, very noisy geez is the habit well every guru is definitely on gini"
"Yes, it's gini. Yaudah come" I said and she agreed to go to the cafeteria with you.
Fellow in the cafeteria I just ordered melon juice and Shanum orange juice then we just sat back. The morning cafeteria was quite quiet because the first lesson seemed to be just my empty class. But there are still X class children who buy drinks because they are on Sports lessons.
"Din?" Ask.
"Hemh?" My toot.
"You've been in the same position as Arkan for a long time?" Suddenly asked. As I said Shanum had asked about Arkan before, even though it was just "Arkan how is Din?" And I answered in accordance with my own judgment. But that day Shanum seemed to really want to know.
"Lumayan lama since SD until now SMA, but not as familiar now, just know because we are neighbors. Maybe around since Junior High I started deket kinship that's the same as him." Evidently
"Oh gituuu, is your house the same as her?" Ask again.
"Yes my house, my army house, the Arkan house" I explained as I moved my hand.
"Oooohh" she replied.
"Why?" My toot.
"Gkpp the girl, eemmh emang Arkan really do not have a girlfriend?" Ask.
"Yes not" I answered flatly.
"Open ex?"
"Have SMP" I replied again.
"Since then, he's never been dating again?"
"Yes, never and I are the same he made a commitment in our friendship if one of us can't have anyone dating. But it's just a talk because Arkan's principle actually said while he didn't have a girlfriend I never would either. Kan rese"kataku's.
"Hahaha, there is something" he said.
"That's also Arkan's name, if it's not him" I replied.
"Keep Din I can ask you something more?"
"Can? What's emang?"
"Do you like Arkan as more of a friend?" Shanum's question made me throw my gaze anywhere and forced to smile even though I didn't want to smile.
For a while I was just quietly acting so thought to be able to answer Shanum's question.
"I can't guess how people feel. But I believe that there is no friendship between men and women. And if there is then behind that side is hurting" he replied. Yes, that's the same theory that's on my mind every time after that night, the night that I and my heart agreed to love Arkan, my best friend.
I quietly heard it and thought how I could neutralize this situation.
"That's just your theory. Arkan I consider rich my own brother, he's always there for me in every situation, yes I love him, he, but not more than that but also unfortunately I to him more than just unfortunately girlfriend to his partner. The point is that she is everything to me but not in terms of dating such a relationship, you must know what I mean, unfortunately Adek to her brother how" I answered a little nervously because that was the most painful answer for my own heart.
"Waaaah Arkan is very lucky to have a rich friend of yours" Shanum said.
"And I'm more fortunate to have a friend on her cake" I replied "btw why is that?" I asked with a fake smile.
"That's not there" he answered.
"Iiiiihh Shanuuum is suspicious" I said "you like Arkan?" My toot.
"Dintaaaa" said.
"Hahaha, really?" I asked with laughter but my tears would come out.
"Ih Dintaaa, okay so gini, I don't know what to do but being honest to his best friend is the best thing about the cake. So Dintaaa your real guess, I like Arkan but I'm not sure because I think you guys are closer anymoreand I'm just a new guy, and this is just my wish, I'm just, and I never expected Arkan to answer all my feelings but yes that's my honesty" he replied with a reddened face while several times I gulped saliva holding tears and tightness in my own chest.
"Tuh kaaannn, uh Shanum why not say from the beginning. After all, Shanum, actually Arkan also likes you" I said with a look full of lies.
"Huh? It can't be love. That's too impossible for a.."
"Hallo everyone" said someone and it was Arkan who had come alone to the cafeteria that suddenly appeared just like that.
"Well, his longevity is spoken of" I said stale.
"Waaaah, what am I talking about?" Ask Arkan and Shanum's feet continue to touch my feet with unsettled eyes.
"Are there no teachers?" I asked to divert the conversation.
"It doesn't exist, but it's a task, but I've done it." Arkan answered while taking my melon juice and sipping it.
"Good to be diligent" I replied and he just put on a smug look.
"Shanum, come home from school have a show?" Suddenly asked.
"That's not there" Shanum replied.
"Road yuk?" It made me feel even more devastated.
"Where?" Ask Shanum
"Where are you, Yuk Din?" Bring along.
"Hemhs? Emmh can't cake it" I answered the lie "want to be on a three-wheeled motorcycle?" My toot.
"Euuuuhhh Ding dong yaaa not possible, I minjem dad's car. Come on" he said.
"It's not that I don't want Ar, I can't be serious anymore." My answer.
"Yeah Din's time, let's not go" Shanum said.
"Next time I'll come" I replied.
"Yaudah Shanum gakpp, means riding a motorcycle, but you have to keep wanting" Arkan said.
"Emmmmh Yes how about Ar, I'll tell you again" he said and Arkan nodded with the most part facial features made me swallow my Saliva rough it felt so tight my chest.
