I Love You, Sir

19.

“Tadi so excited in the canteen. Who is he you?” That was the first sentence Shandy heard when he entered Dirga's car. He had not even sat down properly and had already been asked such a question.

Shandy only glanced at a glance and returned to fixing his sitting position. Not forgetting he put a seat belt on his body. No, he didn't get into the car from school. He was serious about what he said this morning. He doesn't want to be hit by cheap gossip. So, like this morning too, he climbed 20 meters from the school.

“Hey, I asked. How not to answer?” Ask Dirga again.

“Should be answered? What's in it for you?” Sahut Shandy circus without taking his eyes off the phone.

Dirga shrugged his shoulders indifferently. “Entahlah, as a teacher just feel the need to know what causes the canteen crowded this afternoon. Moreover it is related to you.”

Shandy smiled in anguish. “Start living the role of teacher? And what if I was? If other students don't care?” 

Dirga sighed softly. “Not so he meant. If you don't want to tell a story. Surely tomorrow has a lot of information that goes into my ears.” Relaxing follow.

Silent for a moment, Shandy folded his hands over the bag that was on his lap. “Namely Dion. He's my ex-boyfriend. We dated not long, only 6 months if not mistakenly remembered. At first I didn't want to go out either. I feel my life has been quite complicated with school and learning design with mom.” Shandy started telling stories.

“4 Months Dion trying to approach. From the simplest just say hi from afar or join my canteen table and friends to shower with gifts and sweet expressions every day. For a long time, more and more people supported us to be. And somehow I ended up accepting her as my girlfriend. If you want to know, Dion is my first girlfriend.” Laughter came out of Shandy's lips.

“Many said we were a compatible couple. Dion the school idol, Dion the basketball captain, and Shandy the school champion. What a wonderful couple. That's what they saw. They never knew it was all camouflage in front of the camera. For 6 months of dating, I don't know how many times I've seen Dion near other girls. At first I thought they were just regular friends and someday boom! a woman hit me and said that she and Dion had been dating for a year.”

Dirga continued to listen to Shandy's story. He made no comment at all. He just felt like Shandy needed to reveal everything. He was a new person in the girl's world and somehow there was a feeling of wanting to know the girl more deeply.

“I was shocked, very even. I immediately invited Dion to meet of course with the girl. Initially Dion dodged. He said that he had broken up with the girl for a long time but after being pushed on by the girl, he finally confessed. There I unceremoniously broke off the relationship. Even that day I didn't cry at all. Maybe I've been tired of pretending for 6 months. And sure enough, not long after dropping out he immediately took our school idol, Nadia.”

Shandy smiled slightly after he finished telling the story. “Sorry, not a bad story. Forget it if it bothers you. It's just a love story for high school kids. Not the same level as you who are an adult.”

Suddenly, Shandy felt his head rubbed by a large hand. “There is nothing wrong with telling others. And there is no disturbing love story. All love is precious. And every wound and pain inscribed on the journey of your life, will make you more mature in the face of the cruel world.”

Shandy smiled slightly. “Thank you for the suggestion. I didn't think you were wise either.”

Dirga frowned. “This compliment or ridicule means?”

Shandy shrugged his shoulders indifferently. “Successful who received.” He laughed wider. 

“You want ice cream?” Dirga suddenly rose

Shandy turned his head. “Tiba-suddenly so. What wind is there?”

“Entahlah. He said sweet foods can make the mood better. So, take it or leave it?”

“Take. For what's rejected.” Spiritually.

“So where do you want to eat? Or is there a place you want to go?”

Upon arrival at the drive thru mcdonald, it turns out Shandy's estimate was correct. Maybe because it is not rush hour so there is only 1 car in front of them. 

They ended up ordering mcflurry oreo, chocopie and coffee for Dirga. “Feed to eat ice cream instead buy coffee. What's the coffee? Once time need sugar also it.”

Dirga smiled little. “I'm not strong if it's that sweet. Mostly just tea with sweetener. I don't like sweet.”

Shandy just nodded in understanding. He was still busy eating ice cream and his chocopies alternately. Her ice cream was even now soiling her lips without her noticing. 

“Your lips have ice cream. “Tegur Dirga who saw the ice cream marks on Shandy's upper lip.

Shandy tried to clean it with a tissue but it still seemed not clean as well until Dirga's hand came forward to clean it. “Eat ice cream like a child tk, dirty everywhere,” he said casually while cleaning the lips of Shandy who was exposed to ice cream.

Shandy immediately showed his sudden face. He felt his face hot even to the ears. And he was sure his face would have been as red as a boiled crab by this time. This is the first time a man. And he doesn't even know what to react to.

“Thy yes? So curious first dating Dion already flanked. Removed it is directly red,” Dirga seductive while sipping coffee.

Shandy did not answer. He was still busy mollifying his flushed face and his beating heart was not careless. Until the sound of the ringing of his phone made his body jump in shock.

“Iya mother?” It was the captain who contacted.

“Honey, already at home?”

”But mother. Soon until.”

“Judah if that is so. Until the house directly eat and rest yes. See you later tonight.” And the phone connection was decided.

“Still want to stop by again or go straight home?” Ask Dirga while finishing her coffee.

“Back home. Later scolded mother if playing continues,” great-grandson Shandy who still does not dare to look at Dirga.

“Terus it later ice cream scolded not about?”

Shandy shook his head. “So, can't be found by the mother anyway. You are also saved, do not need a bucket.” Dirga just shrugged at Shandy's threat.

20 Minutes and they arrived in front of Shandy's house. “Thank you already ushered home and especially has been dijajanan ice cream. And.”

Shandy commented a very sweet smile and looked into Dirga's eyes. “Thank you for hearing my story. It may have nothing to do with you, but thank you for listening without giving any advice. Be careful on the road.” Shandy got out of the car and went into his yard.

Dirga stared at the girl's back until she disappeared behind the door. “Life of high school children turned out to be complicated also yes.” He muttered while running his car out of Shandy's yard.
