"Erina pleaseee.. Don't cry like gini." said Erina while wiping her tears in the girls' toilet. He washed his face back with cold water to wipe away the tears that felt sticky on the cheeks.
From inside the toilet, there were footsteps running towards the girls' toilet. The sound of feet that sounded crowded. Chika, Tasya and Adel run around looking for Erina to the toilet. Previously they were looking for Erina into the classroom. Erina was not there.
"Huft, thank you. I kirain loe go where" said Chika who looks relieved when she saw Erina who was standing in front of the toilet mirror.
Erina turned her head towards her friends with a look of wonder.
"You why? How about that?" asked Erina casually.
"Loe's calm, isn't she Rin?" ask Tasya who is still worried.
Erina nodded her head while smiling knots.
"Gue ain't nothing. Sorry if I was emotional. I'm sorry I made you anxious" Erina said guiltily.
Chika looked at Erina with a sad and concerned look.
"We all love Loe Rin. I also love you all" said Chika while hugging Erina.
"Gue loves you too" said Tasya who hugged Chika and Erina.
"Gue wants to cry... I also love you girls" said Adel did not want to miss. Adel instantly immersed himself into the arms of his friends.

The bell home from school rang out loud. Students leave the classroom to return to their homes. Last afternoon before the second break, Mr. Yudha, the 11th grade sports teacher, had posted an announcement on the school floor containing information about the list of basketball match organizers. Candidates for the committee were taken from representatives of class 11 and class 12. The selected students were asked to gather in the OSIS room this afternoon. Erina was quite surprised because her name was included in the list of names displayed in the school mading. Chika, Adel or Tasya is not on the list.
Erina saw Rio and Dimas on the list of names, but in a different column. He was not surprised because Rio and Dimas were indeed basketball athletes at school. He wondered why his name could be on the list. Because he remembered he had never been active in any activities at his school.
According to information from Mr. Yudha, the purpose of the collection of some students is to be seconded in the activities of inter-school basketball games whose events will be held at this school. So, Erina's school will host this match.
"We go first to Rin" said Tasya, Adel and Chika.
"Okay. Take care yes guys" Erina said as she waved her hand.
Traveling by her friends, Erina walked towards the OSIS room on the ground floor. As she walked towards the stairs, Erina passed Dimas and Rio.
Erina's heart beat irregularly as her eyes clashed with Dimas's. Dimas himself also looked awkward from that unexpected encounter.
For a few seconds Erina and Dimas exchanged glances in silence. Not a word came out of Erina's lips or Dimas's. And again, Erina chose to hasten her pace leaving Dimas still glued in silence.
Dimas took a deep breath and exhaled it slowly then continued his steps towards the OSIS room.
In the space of OSIS is already crowded with students whose names are included in the list. Erina sat in the number two seat from the front. The athletes' seats are in the front row facing the audience. Because Dimas and Rio were members of the basketball athletes, they sat on the seats that were in the front row.
Dimas was quite happy with the seating arrangement in this OSIS room. Because the model faced, he could freely look at the beautiful face of Erina. The face of the woman he missed so much.
Mr. Yudha has already started his conversation. He also explained the purpose and purpose of gathering selected students complete with tasks that will be shared later.
Dimas's eyes were like those of an eagle looking at prey, not a single bit of Dimas's eyes turned his gaze in another direction other than Erina's. Erina was aware of that gaze. Erina occasionally dares her Eyes to stare at Dimas. And Erina's eyes immediately collided with Dimas' sharp eyes that had been staring at her. Dimas smiled amusedly as Erina looked misbehaved by instantly turning her gaze towards the other.
Erina's heart rate is getting irregular. Dimas's sharp eyes made his heart become weak. Dimas thinned his lips with a small smile.Erina deliberately ignored Dimas' smile and pretended to focus on the explanation of Mr. Yudha.
Dimas paid no heed to Erina's indifference towards him. Most importantly for him at this moment he could let go of a very longing by simply looking at Erina's face clearly.
Tttting...
1 Incoming message on Erina's phone.
Hi 😊
Erina repeatedly looked at the watch in her hand hoping that this afternoon meeting would be over soon. Dimas managed to steal a picture of Erina who was still indifferent to him. Dimas smiles his own smile seeing the results of the photos on his phone.
Dimas again sent a short message to Erina's phone.
Smile dong, just a little. Jutek very 😜
Erina took a deep breath after reading the second message Dimas had sent her. And for the second time he ignored a message from Dimas.
This afternoon's meeting with Yudha sir is finally over as well. Erina gets a task as a registration committee that will re-data the participants of the match.
Basketball game will be held next week. The committee will be reassembled to get a more detailed and clearer briefing. After Mr. Yudha finished directing and doing the division of duties, all prospective committee students were allowed to go home. This afternoon meeting lasted nearly 2 hours, a considerable time for Erina. Especially the attitude of Dimas who managed to make himself feel uncomfortable and uncomfortable.
Erina came out of the OSIS room and immediately accelerated her steps out of the school gate.
"The weather this afternoon is very cloudy. Though it was a hot afternoon, hmm. "Erina's mind grumbled a little.
To avoid the rain that is likely to fall, Erina decided to go home using online motorcycle taxi services to make her home faster. He took his cell phone to start inserting his ojol order. Erina's phone has given notification that her battery began to low at 20% and continues to decrease.
"Well, it's a lowbatt phone anyway. Oh come on, please.... Don't die yet... " Erina spoke to herself on her phone.
Not yet had the ojol order succeeded, Erina's phone suddenly off. Erina snorted in annoyance as she saw her phone off could not be used at all. Suddenly a car horn sounds that surprise Erina.
Erina turned to the source of the voice, and it turned out to be the sound of Dimas' car horn. Dimas opened the windshield of his front car with a smile.
"Erina... I'm anter yeah. Yuk" said Dimas half yelled from inside his car.
Erina was stunned saddened by Dimas' offer. The reason is in the car Dimas already there Wulan who was sitting in front next to him. It turned out that from earlier Wulan waited for Dimas to attend a meeting of the basketball match committee until Tuesday.
Wulan looked at Erina with a cynical look. Erina gulped her saliva and threw her gaze in the other direction. He breathed deeply and then slowly threw it away. Erina's heart was turbulent, sad and angry. Dimas Tega-egasanya took her while inside there was already another girl who came with her.
"Erina... Ayok." said Dimas again repeated his offer. Dimas' words disperse the daydream of Erina who had been silent.
"Ep... Don't do it, thanks. I can go home by myself" Erina replied stammeredly and gave her forced smile.
"The sky is cloudy, Rin. I think it's gonna rain again. I'll take you home. Come on in" said Dimas again in a pushy tone.
Like a riding prince who came to help, a kevin motorbike suddenly flashed in front of Erina who was standing on the side of the road. It turned out that Kevin's eyes were looking towards Erina. Kevin stops his bike and offers Erina a ride.
"Erine... Want to be with ga?" kevin offered.
Without a second thought, Erina ran straight to Kevin's bike.
"Seriously can I ride a loe motorbike?" asked Erina to make sure.
"He-em" Kevin replied as he nodded.
"Gue ga ngrepotin, right?"
"Olderoy.. Cepet ride"
Erina receives a helmet from Kevin and then hugs behind Kevin. Kevin's motorbike immediately drove away from Dimas' car which was still parked.
Dimas gritted his teeth. His hand squeezed the handle of the steering wheel of the car. His furious eyes depicted a face of annoyance and anger that Erina preferred to go with other men rather than with him. His heart was really unwilling. Very, very unwilling.
