The clouds came home, lazily. Actually, he didn't want to go home first. But there was an option, Papa Ryan, who had just come from a business trip to several countries.
The two of them, have not met for a long time. Of course, the op asked Awan, to go straight home, once school was over.
"Opa is busy. I was so lazy to meet him," Cloud said to himself, walking with a lowered head.
He walked towards Pak Lek's stall, to pick up his motorcycle, which was there, because it won at Pak Lek's stall, the motorbike students who did not have a SIM were entrusted.
Cloud's friend is not in school. That is why, he walked alone in a down state, because no friends were talking.
"Silver Cloud. Tumben himself?"
The clouds looked up, staring at the direction of the voice, which greeted him. And it turns out it was Ara.
Ara also walked alone, because her friend had permission to go home first, during the break this afternoon.
"Yes. Temen Kakar is not going in" replied Awan, without telling his friend the reason for not attending school.
Ara nodded in understanding. Now, he doesn't wonder anymore. And the Cloud also did not ask Ara why she walked alone, without any ordinary friends with her.
Now, the two of them walked together, heading outside the school gate. With each other's feelings, which they can't say.
Clouds can only be silent, as well as Ara. No one starts the conversation. The tongue feels stiff, and it is difficult to make a sound. And the two of them finally remained silent to each other, even when the two of them had already arrived outside the school. Outside the gate.
"Who's picking up yet?" ask Awan, because the fathers who used to pick up Ara have not been seen. Finally, he was able to make a sound as well, even though it was for the usual questions.
"Maybe it's a little late, sister," replied Ara, looking around.
The two of them, looking around again, to find the whereabouts of the person they were looking for. Pak ojek Ara's.
But what they were looking for, was not seen, among the many people who came to pick them up.
"Aren't you picked up, too?" ask Ara, who never knew, how the Clouds came and went home from school.
The clouds smiled faintly, hearing the question asked by Ara. Now she knew, if Ara did not know, who had given her a ride, that morning.
"So. Brother brought his own motorbike," replied Awan, if he brought his own vehicle to go and go home from school.
Ara nodded in understanding. But upon awakening, Ara again asked Awan, "Well, where did the motor put it? Why come with me here?"
"Hehehe... GR!" sahut Cloud fast.
"Motor Brother is there!" The clouds resumed their words, pointing towards the stall, where many motorcycles were parked.
"Hehehe... I think, you deliberately intersect here, because I have no friends," said Ara reasoned, while covering her own mouth with a palm. She smiled shyly, feeling overwhelmed.
Ara certainly felt very embarrassed, and also regretted, because she had failed to say so. He felt that the clouds would be happy because of Ara's words.
The cloud made no comment. He just smiled, heard the words of Ara, who was like he was hoping that his thoughts were true.
"By!"
Ara and Cloud turned their heads together, at someone who called out the name Ara.
"Sir Nanda," said Ara, as he walked quickly towards Nanda, who had just gotten off his bike.
Ara left the clouds just like that. Moreover, he was in a clumsy state, after the slip earlier. He forgot to say goodbye or just excuse me, to go first.
The clouds saw Nanda. A young man, who was not thought to be much different from himself. His body is sturdy and athletic, especially with his sport bike that still looks new. He thought that the young man had a special relationship with Ara.
Moreover, Awan also saw the two of them, Ara and Nanda, who were having a close conversation. In fact, Awan also noticed the moment Nanda pinched Ara's cheek. As for Ara herself, she only smiled shyly, and did not shy away from the pinch. Even after that, Ara looked sulky, like she was making an offer, which the young man could not fulfill.
With a wry smile, Awan walked again, heading towards Pak Lek's stall, where his motorbike was.
Something felt missing in his heart. But Cloud did not know, what he was feeling right now. She only knew if, she felt a little disappointed, for judging Ara as a brave girl, even though she seemed innocent.
But it turns out that the cloud's conjecture and thoughts were wrong. Ara was not as good as she thought. The clouds are disappointed. And this made him excited to go home. He did not want to linger in this school, keeping in mind all the things he had seen with his own eyes.
On the other hand, Ara was talking to Nanda.
"Kok Brother picked you up, didn't Pak ojek?" ara asked, while looking at her cousin's sister, who had just bought a sports motorcycle two days ago. And right now, it's being used to pick up Ara.
"intentionally. Pak ojek brother asked for a holiday this afternoon. Brother wants to pick up, especially for Brother's sister who is sinter!" nanda replied with anxiety, and pinched Ara's cheek.
Ara just kept quiet and smiled shyly, getting such treatment, in front of the crowd.
"Sister ihsss...abashed to know!" said Ara pouting.
"Hehehe. This is your own grandfather!" sahut Nanda while chuckling.
"Well up, we're home!" take Nanda, while patting the motorbike.
"Eh, Ara ninggalin Kak Awan himself..."
Ara did not continue her sentence, because by the time she turned to the place that was, where she and Cloud were, there was no one else. The clouds are gone, but Ara has not done well and introduces Nanda to the Clouds.
"Yahhh, he's gone" said Ara, disappointed.
"Who?" nanda asked, looking in the direction Ara was looking at as well.
"So Sister, who stood with Ara there! She's her upperclassman Ara, but High School."
Nanda tried to remember who it was, who was standing together with Ara. But Nanda doesn't seem to remember.
"So don't see anybody!"
Ara looked around again in the other direction. But the figure of the Cloud, still invisible. Even in Pak Lek's stall, Clouds are not visible.
With an awkward smile, Ara dodged a few times. He felt bad, because he had not had time to say anything to the Clouds. "Surely he felt that I was being disrespectful and thinking that no-no, because of the arrival of Kaka Nanda." Ara muttered alone, and it was not clearly heard in Nanda's ears.
"What the hell is Ra?" ask Nanda to know.
"So. It'sit's okay. Maybe he's gone home" answered Ara, still shaking his head.
"Yes, we're home!"
Ara ride on the bonfire of Nanda sport motorbike. He eventually returned home with his cousin, though his heart and mind were still fixed on the Clouds.
There was something Ara felt. But he also had no idea what he was feeling.
Feelings that cannot be expressed at all. Shame to meet. Shame to speak normally, and shame if there is a wrong judgment, if not explained so that there is no misunderstanding.
Ara was confused and also could not think clearly. He didn't know what to say to the Clouds tomorrow, if they ever met again.
There was something Ara wanted to say, to explain about the incident this afternoon, after school. But, Ara was also confused, how to start a conversation with the Clouds.
"Ah, it could be that she doesn't care either."
Finally, Ara tried to throw away her erratic thoughts and feelings.
"R. Hold on, don't daydream. Falling down!"
Nanda shouted to remind Ara, who was behind her back. Sitting on a can.
