I WASN'T...

I WASN'T...
Match



Rena was beautiful that afternoon. How not pretty? He spent almost two hours beautifying himself in the salon. I waited until I fell asleep. Mr. Anton even drooled to sleep in the car.


Sky blue dress is very suitable to dress her white skin. Her hair she let loose freely covered her slender back. She is not only beautiful, but very beautiful!


That me? Hahaha, I'm wearing enough school gym clothes. My goal is to change clothes just because I don't want a white-gray uniform. Rena initially insisted that I want to wear the dress she brought. I used the excuse of 'fear of catching a cold and having to hospitalize again', so Rena relented.


The journey from the salon to GOR only takes ten minutes by car. When we got there, the place was crowded. Not only crowded by visitors who want to watch basketball games, but also street vendors who see profit opportunities selling in this place.


"Ren, I want to buy some round tofu first, huh?" my permission.


Rena caught my hand before I got up from her side. "Lo has to be energy efficient!" the answer. "Sir Anton, please buy a round tofu with orange juice, huh? We'll wait in the stands" Rena ordered. Mr. Anton rushed towards one of the merchant carts lined up on the side of the building wall.


"I think I should get a salary for Mr. Anton!" I give you an opinion. It's not good every time Rena asks Mr. Anton to do something for me. He was, right, paid to serve Rena.


"Lo don't think weird!" answer Rena. "See him I've added five million a month because I've been giving service to you."


Waw! Five million a month? My allowance is a year, not that much. Indeed, we are different in the world.


Rena climbed into the stands, drawing the attention of many who saw her. In fact, many men were blatantly staring at him with drool dripping like wolves ready to pounce on their prey. I'm getting ready for the smartphone in my hand, just in case there's a commotion. I'll call Mr. Anton directly to be a shield.


"Where's Satya's brother?" he was looking for Satya. I looked in all directions. Satya is not visible.


"Maybe I'm getting ready in the locker room" I glanced at the watch. Seventeen, less than fifteen minutes. Soon their game begins. "What school is it like?"


"Private SMA in the next town."


"Well, far away too, huh?" I returned to look in all directions. So aware of too many wolves stalking Rena, I immediately called Mr. Anton. It didn't take long, Mr. Anton finally came.


"This, Non!" he handed me a box of round tofu and orange juice. His hunting breath made me feel guilty for asking him to come quickly.


"Makasi, Sir! How much is this, huh?"


"Non, don't ever ask the price on what I give you!" Mr. Anton replied with a solemn face. I also if so Mr. Anton would not mind buying round tofu and orange juice for a child like me, if my own salary is that big.


"Sit here, sir!" I patted the concrete bench next to me. "By the way, Mr. Anton's son went to college, right? Where's it taken?"


Mr. Anton's face changed. There was a proud look that emanated from his smile. "University in Depok, majoring in Legal Studies."


"Law science? Whoa, same with My Brother, dong?"


"No Dika never came home" said Rena. I nudged his arm and shook my head slowly. He is not so sensitive! Just now Mr. Anton's heart flowered because his son was accepted into a famous university, even slammed into the ground.


"Son of Mr Anton, would I like to introduce you to Brother Dika? Who knows if you can get along there?" my proposal.


"It's lucky to be Mr. Anton's son!" praise me really. Mr. Anton's smile again expands.


The sound of the whistle caught our attention. One section of the stands cheered as five tall men wearing green-black basketball uniforms entered the court. Some cheerleaders even prepared banners for them.


This is my first time watching a basketball game. It turns out this is so crowded. The people present looked feisty, not inferior to the players present on the field. All this time, I chose a safe way to watch any match. That is sitting sweet at home while snacking on snacks that I made.


From under my stands, five men in red basketball uniforms appeared that I recognized in my school basketball uniform. A loud cheer immediately invaded the entire building. I have to close my ears.


"Deb, it's okay!?" Rena shouted from next to me.


I was so shocked! I am in my heart. If you scream from the stands across, it is not too pronounced. It's from behind me! My heart is jumping and running away!


"Deb!?"


I take my hands off my ears. "No what! Just a little surprised!" I shouted back. "Lo himself knows, right? This is my first time!"


Rena nodded in response to a statement from me. He looked back at the basketball court. I follow.


Satya stood in the middle of the field, among her four friends. He wears a black bandana so that his hair does not fall on his forehead. Satya waved cheerfully as our gaze met. I turned, Rena waved cheerfully back. He must be really happy to be able to watch Satya on the field like this.


I control my breath as much as possible. Shouting for the sake of shouting as the match went on made me startle several times. My head slowly became dizzy. Cold sweat dripped from my temple.


"Non?" Mr. Anton held my arm just as my body was staggering forward.


I turned my head quickly, then put my index finger in front of my lips, asking her not to panic. "Medicine. In the bag," I whispered. Rena who is busy following the exciting match path is not aware of my situation. He is now standing at the stands guard while cheering in support of our school team. Goody! This is my chance to take medicine.


Mr. Anton offered five kinds of drugs. Obviously he was confused and didn't know which medicine I was referring to. He pointed at the drugs one by one when my breath was wheezing. When he pointed at the right medicine, I nodded.


Both of my hands were clutching the concrete bench I was sitting on. Pain like being stabbed a thousand needles sailed in the chest and spread to the neck. I couldn't even remove my own grip from the intense pain, as if I wanted to channel the pain to a concrete bench.


Mr. Anton turned out to have unwrapped the pills I needed. He hastily put the pill in my mouth. "Water, Non?" he threw his bottle towards me.


I shook my head. The cave just needs to chew on this little pill. Then set the breath so that my heart rate returns to normal.


"We're going to the hospital, okay?" pinta Mr. Anton.


I glanced at Rena for the umpteenth time who was still engrossed myself. Satya is playing seriously. I can't ruin a happy moment like this. I can hold on! I have to hold on!
