Galactic

Episode 43 Chapter 43 | Walk Beside Me

A warm greeting in the first-class corridor greeted Orzie from among the junior guys. They are arguably a new family in the Legion who now stand quietly without the knowledge of the school, but unlike before, wara-wiri looking for enemies.

But that smile of hospitality faded, changing a wry face as the Galaxy passed by. Somehow the Galaxy so avoid it, although it has been a long time since the bloody brawl but the guy did not change. Like blaming him for that.

Distance was growing between the two of them. And subconsciously Orzie clenched his hands tightly when he was about to squeeze with the dark-eyed man. He was stunned for a moment when the guy's shoulder was accidentally knocked.

Again. The galaxy does not care about its presence. For whatever it was, for him Orzie was just a cursory object passing by at the end of his eye.

Orzie tried to close his eyes.

"Oji.." call Audrey to the next time, Orzie still daydreams. Staring out the window, saw the trees swaying in the wind.

"Ji! Lo why the hell?!" audrey exclaimed in emotion, in fact she was tired from talking about Mike who never smiled at her again. Oxy doesn't go to school, so Audrey confuses her response to Orzie's attitude which is not what it used to be. Droopy. I don't know why the guy got away from her.

"No! Why should I feel guilty about the evil spirit?" Inner irritated. Rather than that, the shadow of Doni who was then drenched in blood was still recorded clearly in his memory.

"I'm sorry Don... I wish I had forbidden the brawlers that day..."

Audrey who had been watching him spoke up. "Lo has to move on Ji... Not forever man lives, right?"

Orzie closed his eyes, his mind shrunk. Indeed, it has been a long time they lost the figure of Doni, but it is still clear.

Suddenly Teuku slammed in the back. "Is Ji. Anyway, the one who killed Doni was in prison! If it could be a death sentence!"

Orzie did not respond. Choosing to sleep in his bag, as Gamaliel did during this third grade. Tends to shut down even though the world keeps turning.

"Doni must be sad to see you both become quiet. Didn't he ever say, never lose to our enemies or our dreams? You have no intention of making nerusin his words?" iris the girl's eyes were soft, turning to look at Teuku.

"Gue don't know why I messed up like this."

"That's because you keep walking in place, Ji! Think you can prevent bad things from happening to us?"

After looking at Teuku, Orzie slouched his face again and realized that his eyes were getting wet.

"Gue is the same... We are both lost, but the way we behave is different. You're too selfish, you're sure that Doni is still here," Teuku said softly, sounding his tone drowned. Despite closing her eyes, Orzie could hear her, now she somehow became more sensitive.

"Lo's a lot more trouble, Ji. Finished one-on-one, including the same Galaxy. And he said you want to be a doctor? What's this? How lethargic?"

Orzie's eyes closed again, a long sigh came from his mouth. "I think I should move. There are too many neglected problems. Bare again UN and I even lazy, arrgh dizzy!" fretful. "That, dong," Audrey excitedly tapped Orzie on the shoulder.

Orzie smiled slightly, he wasted too much time. Perhaps, the first step to getting up was to restore the spirit of Gamaliel. He moved towards Gama's desk, patting the guy's shoulder slowly.

"Gam..."

As always. Gamaliel.

"Woi nyet.."

Orzie breathed heavily while slapping the guy's head. "Gama, when will you run away from problems?"

"Gama Woo!"

Still no response. Orzie chose to sit next to him while looking straight ahead. Remember the second grade, when everything was still fun. Doni who played the rollers while pretending to explain the formula, then laughed crisply as the others threw them.

"Gue also wants Doni's kayak."

Gamaliel looked moving, straightening his back by leaning against the chair. Hugging the bag and closing your eyes. But still not talking.

"Although more problems, he will explore everything with jokes. I still can't believe who fell down that road Doni. We're both too selfish, Gam. He's gone."

Gamaliel looked down full of regret. "I wish I had heard Doni's words, not bang Zero. We must still be laughing today..." Gama's heavy voice sounded hoarse, Orzie just realized from earlier Gamaliel was crying.

It all felt like hell, last night he didn't sleep at home because he still had problems with his Papa, the Eagle. Gamaliel can only go to the Bang Atep cafe to sleep without a blanket without a mattress. Teachers often scold him as if he were an unforgivable serial killer.

"It's not just you who's guilty, Gam. We're all so much more stressed, maybe everybody hates us, but not one world, right?" soft Orzie said.

"Udah deh, justin aja lo ngebacot brother! I've been shoving a school pole into her mouth!" cerca Mahesa was upset. Gama laughed a little.

"You sure you are?"

"Emangs... Not sure! Ahhhaha!!!"

Class is back noisily. While they were still walking beside him, what was Gamaliel afraid of? The man smiled unconsciously. Staring at the old Orzie, then looking down agitatedly.

Suddenly Erlan cursed in the back. "Where do we bet, man? Don't use money, but use value! The loser must win the same!" bring Erlan.

The boys who were busy playing chess approached with a serious look. "Maen use what value, Lan?"

"Kan if we maen gambling, whose number is high that wins the bet. Well if this is who is of high value can be king."

Cheers broke out behind him, some were planning to strip his defeated opponent, ask to eat a jengkol duren segerobak or at least wear a barbie bag every day. Embarrassing.

"Gue take it! It's easy to ask for the same teaching as Oji! Also, do not have to learn, your brain will not be until hahaha!" teuku Ledek. Zaki shook his head in annoyance.

"Inget you! Your debt is still ten rebu ama me! If I win you have to pay a hundred times!"

"Yep!"

Orzie smiled amusedly at them, exactly unchanged in this year. Like a bad boy.

"Ntar fitting your rest all into tongkrongan coy! Bring a book, don't forget! Next week we're doing some math!"

Sometimes they groan stress hear the word Mathematics, a lesson that can make dozens of great scientists even become bald glow!

Orzie looked at Erlan who was now giving her thumbs up with a typical grin of Medan children. The child was probably the one who understood the situation the most and could get the bad boys to follow his idea.

"You win, you have to follow whatever I want!!" Orzie cried, they groaned again.

"Why the hell do you have to come along..."

***

Mr. Beni called Orzie to the office, carrying the exercise books collected the day after tomorrow. From the main hallway, the galaxy is walking slowly. Don't forget the Gisel that stalks him every day. Orzie tried indifferently, for some reason his heart felt torn apart inside.

Ever since Doni died, everyone blamed him, Gamaliel, the Legion, everything. Their gazes are aware, sometimes there are whispers full of slander in his speech and at worst there will be one or two people who blaspheme them.

"I said it! Don't brawl! See consequences!"

"Mbak Oji why the hell should hang out with them! You have to deal with the police!"

"Dad disappointed with you Ji, dad let you go to town to go to high school and be a person, not a criminal."

Feeling all the words buzzing in his ears, his father was disappointed after the police called his parents, never even calling Orzie again except for his mother. Can't defend himself anymore, he has to accept the consequences. Including being shunned by the Galaxy.

Orzie tried to close his ears.

That's right Audrey said. He had to dare to solve the problem, especially now that Raka's speech echoed in his sense of hearing.

Two more months. It will be a determination.

I have to finish everything from today.
