HALF MY SOUL

HALF MY SOUL
PROBABLY FATIGUE



Explanation after explanation is explained and described by the seniors in a large hall room that can accommodate all new students from various majors. The top students again use alma mater jackets as a marker that they are seniors.


They stood around the new students who were listening to the explanation. Kimberly sits in the student department of business administration, while William is in the business management department. Kimberly could see that William was sitting next to Viera. Envied? Sure oes. He wanted to be by William's side, talk to him, joke around and be always close to him.


Kimberly was completely unconcerned with all the explanations given by the senior. He only continued to pay attention to how close William was to Viera. Anxiety made him knock a pen on the table that connected to the chair.


Tukk .. tukk .. tukk .. tukk .. tukk ...


Everyone immediately turned to the direction where the voice came from. However, Kimberly was completely unaware of it. He just kept knocking the pen on the table. Until finally, a senior who stood not far away called out to him.


"Hey .. hey ...," a girl sitting next to Kimberly shook her shoulders.


"What's wrong?" ask Kimberly.


"That, you were called by the senior," he said as he pointed towards the senior who called out to Kimberly.


Kimberly turned her head and suddenly her heart was beating fast, "Did I make a mistake?" his inner.


Kimberly stand. He could feel all the new students looking at him, making him uneasy. Senior took him to the back and invited him into a room. Kimberly looked down, she was scared.


"You know what your mistake was?" ask Hanna.


Kimberly shook her head.


"Java!! You don't have a mouth, do you?"


"I don't know, Brother," Kimberly said still, bowing her head.


"Now I'm asking you. What was that being explained in front?"


Deghhc .....


Honestly, Kimberly really did not know what was being explained in front because she was only focused on looking towards William and Viera. Sometimes he is busy with his own thoughts. So, he did not notice or hear the explanation ahead.


"Sorry, Brother. I don't know" he answered honestly.


"Don't know?! Then what were you doing earlier, huh?!" hanna's voice began to rise.


Kimberly could not answer. There was no way he could say that he was watching the man he liked. He could only look down, and as much as possible hold back his tears from coming out.


"Because you can't say what you're doing. I ask you to write 10 times about the senior explanation in front. I don't want to know where you're going to get it. But tomorrow morning, you must leave it to me. Understood?!!"


"Understand me, Brother."


The door of the room was open. Hanna finally came out because she was asked out by the chairman of the event.


"Are you okay, Kim?"


"Silver brother ..," Kimberly said as she looked at the person sitting next to her.


"Are you in trouble?" ask Anthony.


"I'm okay, brother. Maybe it was just soy sauce because of sleep deprivation last night" Kimberly told a lie.


"Have you been punished by Hanna?" anthony asked with a slight smile to melt the atmosphere.


Kimberly nodded her head, "Sister Hanna asked me to write 10 times about today's explanation and give it to her tomorrow morning."


"I can't help reducing your punishment, it'll seem unfair to your other friends. But I'll help you make a summary today. You only need to copy it 10 times. How's it?"


"Will you help me?"


"Want to?"


"Yes, sister, I want to. I'm sorry to bother you again this time" Kimberly said.


"Give me your phone number and also your email address. I'll send you a summary."


Kimberly mentioned her phone number as well as her email address. He thanked Anthony many times. Kimberly thought, at least he still got good even though his day was not pleasant at all.


Anthony smiled as he had already managed to get Kimberly's mobile number. He finally came out of the room after Kimberly came out.


Kimberly sat back in her chair, occasionally wiping away her tears that were still left at the end of her eyes. William noticed Kimberly when she returned to her chair. Kimberly herself also noticed William and made their eyes meet.


William's eyes seemed to speak to him, and asked how he was doing. Kimberly just shook her head to say she was okay. Kimberly could also see that Viera was unhappy when William noticed her, making her even more afraid of losing William.


*****


Time shows at 12 noon. Each new student is given a lunch box containing their lunch. They were given 30 minutes to finish the meal and free them to get out of the room.


Kimberly sat in her place. He did not want to go anywhere, because there he could pay closer attention to William. Kimberly ate her lunch slowly. Looking at William who was enjoying lunch with Viera, made his appetite disappear, yawned to where.


Kimberly could only stare at the lunch that was before her, while playing it.


"What's wrong with you, Kim?"


The voice he had longed for since morning now sounded so clear. Kimberly turned to the direction of the sound, and found William sitting in his front seat, turning his head back.


"Let's eat it, otherwise you'll get sick. Don't you not be sick?"


"Yes, I'm sick. It's heartache to see you with Viera, "inner Kimberly.


"I'm fine. Probably exhausted because I couldn't sleep last night" he replied lying.


"For wanting to be a student, so you can't sleep" William said, laughing and scrambling Kimberly's hair, "You're like a kid."


Kimberly could only smile at William's words. He turned his head towards Viera, because he felt noticed, and sure enough, Viera was looking at him and William. Kimberly could sense that Viera did not like her at all.


"Wil, get back to your seat. Soon the show will start again" Kimberly said.


"All right, I'll go there first. You quickly finish your meal," Kimberly could only nod.
