“ So…. Since when was my brother close to the heir. ”
“ Who do you mean brother?" Ralin looked relaxed.
Raising one of his eyebrows, Rassya hinted at Ralin on the figure who drove him home yesterday afternoon.
"Name Qean, bang.. ” Ralin stared at bete.
“ Yaaa.. whoever it is, in my opinion, he's weird." Rassya replied flatly as usual.
"Who said he was weird?" Ralin intended to defend himself. But his intention was to recall how the figure of Qean who he thought had indeed come to him in an unnatural way.
"The young man who helped you on the first day of ospek?" Rassya sounded seductive.
Only reciprocated with a manyun lips, Ralin ignored the older brother with all his chatter.
"In my opinion, whoever you are must be strange. ” ledek Rassya with satisfaction with all the expressions he got from his sister.
For a moment staring in annoyance, Ralin continued his steps towards the schoolyard to get into his class. He did not deny the strangeness of Qean's attitude towards him since their introduction. But it was also not a reason for Rassya to say his friends were strange people. Realizing something to be able to answer the brother's words, Ralin smirked in satisfaction.
“Weirder again all his friends brother tuh.” preceded the step of the brother, Ralin stared resentfully towards the terrace of the room Osis. Where Andra and the other Osis officials were caught looking at him from the main road to the schoolyard.
“ Yes..They are indeed strange and arbitrary themselves lately. ” Rassya said glare quite clearly. There was indeed something that Rassya had kept secret from his sister lately.
Hearing that answer, Ralin again imagined his memory of some changes in school order made by the administrators of Osis in addition to Rassya, the older brother. Of course, the brother would not be able to do strange things like the managers of Osis.
....
Day by day change. Changes are increasingly rarely felt and seen by Ralin. Starting to get used to the presence of Leticia and Atlas in her class, Ralin also tried to adjust to some other changes that had occurred. Trying to look normal in the presence of Atlas who suddenly became foreign and seemed unaware of any changes in the presence of the managers of Osis who always pay attention to the rest of the school in an unusual way.
Feeling too busy thinking about the reason behind the change in school order made by Andra and her friends, Ralin did not realize that the Kenanga High School Festival would be held in another week.
Every year, in May, Kenanga High School holds an annual event like a Festival that will involve all students in its implementation. The activities themselves are submitted to each class both for the theme, class order, stewardship and cost.
Where the theme of the Festival event made its class is ‘ teahouse’. There are also some snacks to accompany the rest of the visitors who will later participate in the Kenanga High School Festival.
Kenanga High School Festival is not only attended by all the citizens of the school, but from all walks of life and the annual festival of Kenanga High School is also visited by other invited school guests.
Preparation for preparation is carried out for one week. The arrangement of tables and chairs in the classroom, decoration, manufacture and compounding the menu to be served. All of that is done by dividing the working group in the Ralin class.
In the other class, there are more things being done. Second grade and third grade for example. Because they already have experience with school Festival events, some of them make two exhibition events. And one mandatory exhibition they have to make is the greening exhibition. Where in the school yard is now standing some tent stands full of plants that decorate it. There are orchid plants, roses, chrysanthemums, ylang, and hydroponic plants such as green vegetables, chili, spinach, tomatoes and so forth. All preparations were made ahead of the Festival.
“ I want to ask you something, okay? ”
“ I? ” Ralin convince yourself. Taking a glance at Leticia, she relaxedly shrugged her shoulders. “ Can be. Ask what?”
“ Lo remember saying that the managers of Osis were strange, right? ”
Ralin asserted the question from the Atlas. "Yes! Why?" ralin replied casually.
“ What kind of weird? ” Leticia mediates because she feels there is another air that suddenly she feels from the figure of Ralin who is now standing in front of her. Leticia stepped back and took a position beside Atlas who was still holding her hand against Ralin.
Feeling awkward with Atlas's attitude and Leticia's slightly strange gaze, Ralin smiled wryly.
“Seaneh the whereabouts of the two of you in this class.” He leaned his body towards the two classmates in front of him. Staring at them flatly and then curtailing his smile
Leticia. Atlas himself was silent with that answer.
Although the tone of Ralin's voice seemed to be joking, but what Atlas got by holding Ralin's hand made him shudder a little afraid. There was no pulse, no heartbeat, no blood flow in his pulse but Ralin was seen breathing. Atlas was stunned to find Ralin who was now smiling sweetly and looking at him with a meaningful gaze.
“ So huh? ” Atlas try to smile.
“Like that.” Respond Ralin Instantly. “So...this time don't try to add to the list of oddities you guys remembered me well? Understood?! ”
His gaze now met with the figure of Andra far across there. Exactly out the window of the school's main building, the terrace of the Osis room. Andra, who saw and heard everything that was talked about between Ralin and Atlas, also wanted to know the strength of Ralin's instincts at this time. And now Andra can only smile stiffly knowing that something she never imagined might have happened.
"Is that you?" andra muttered from a distance. The gazes still met and stared at each other without implying any intent to each other.
The figure of Ralin was awake from his long sleep. But she is not the figure of the lover that Andra had been waiting for all this time. Ralin was his present self with a memory of his present life. Not him in the past with his memories now.
"Is this good?"
Getting such a question from Andra's figure across, Ralin flicked his finger just like Andra had done the other day while helping Ralin control himself. It shifted Andra's gaze, she refocused and looked at Ralin who was throwing a meaningful smile at her.
"Well or not, everything will be answered according to the time played."
Andra remained silent. He turned his gaze away and entered the silent room of Osis.
Passed.
