Lacara

Section 11

The foot slowly went to the canteen. His hand carried the bekel box that he was going to give to Zul. In the past, Zul always ate Cara bekel. While Cara always eats Zul bekel.

How to sit on the bench of the canteen at the corner. His head rested on the wall, looking towards the entrance of the canteen.

It's been a while, How to wait. But what was waiting for still did not come.

"Who's looking?" tanya Raca surprises Cara.

"Sister Zul."

"Did you wait for him?"

"As far as I dong."

"Nih bekel I eat yes," said Raca take Cara bekel box.

Quickly, Cara snatched her bekel box. "Nih bekel don't make you."

Raca rolled her eyes puffed. "The slash of eyebrows won't come here."

"Where do you know?"

"Raca all know, minglingan bekel for me, huh?" He saw the entrance of the canteen, but Zul's figure was not seen either. How to switch to see the bekel box. Then I looked at Raca.

"Can you, Cara is pretty?" How to smile wryly, then give the bekel box to Raca.

"If not sincere, mending not necessary," said Raca while rewind the box bekel.

"Gue sincerely," said Cara while handing the box back to Raca with a smile.

Raca took the bekel box and ate it immediately. Mixed rice made by Mother Cara is indeed the best. For a long time he had not eaten mixed rice made by Mother Cara.

How to raise his eyebrows when Raca thrust a spoonful of mixed rice at him. "Gue knows, you haven't eaten. Here, I'm bribe."

Heard his stomach sound. Way to open his mouth. He hasn't eaten since this morning.

"His face need not pout. I was bribing. I'd rather have a bribe than the same slug brow" Raca said when she saw Cara pouting.

"Gue doesn't frown" said How to lie. He is still sad about Zul who did not come to the cafeteria.

Raca closed the bekel box. Then sat facing the way who was still chewing the rice. "There are times when I'm dying to fight. But, if the person I'm fighting for is never sensitive, then why am I still holding out for him?"

~·~

"Gi, you want to stay here, right?" ask Cara after getting off the Gia motorbike.

"But I don't have a change of clothes" replied Gia while taking off her helmet.

"Lo's a lot of clothes left here. Anyway, tomorrow will still wear this uniform. If it's a matter of books, let me pesenin gojek."

Gia nodded and got off her bike. Then follow the steps of the way.

"Hi Randy, want to work?" gia asked as she watched Randy get out of the house. Randy nodded, then said goodbye to Cara and Gia for work.

"Lo out of lightning, yes, my collision was told to nginep here?" ask Gia after arriving at Cara's room.

How to close the door of his room. Then walk and sit next to Gia. "You confide."

"What the hell?"

"Let's go first."

"Now it is."

"Eat first, Gi."

"Lo would like to confide, better choose Raca or Kak Zul, right?"

Cara shook her head, "not having anything to do with Kak Zul."

"Jaudah, let's confide."

"So gini, I was in the same cafeteria as Raca. He said like gini, there are times when I'm dying to fight. But, if the person I'm fighting for is never sensitive, then why am I still holding out for him?" how to pause for a moment to take a breath, "what do you mean?"

Gia laughed so hard that she almost fell backwards. Fortunately, I pulled his hand. "What the hell, not funny to know!"

"It's funny, Ra," said Gia, who still ended with a laugh.

How to pucke his lips, then lay his body. Gia's laughter is not over. The girl still faithfully laughed gigglingly. "Well, you don't know, Ra?"

"From my knowledge of what guys say to girls..."

"Sok smart," interrupted Cara while throwing a pillow to Gia.

"It's not polite for a child" said Gia who managed to catch a pillow from Cara's throw.

"Now I ask, what special thing has Raca ever done to you?"

How to turn his brain. There were too many things Raka had done for her. But, for the special. He doesn't know, which one.

"Raca ever give you chocolate?" tanya Gia and Cara shook their heads. As far as they were close friends, Raca never gave her chocolate.

"He ever give flowers?" tanya Gia and Cara shook their heads. If ever, for what Raca gave her flowers.

"Lo ever sung the same song as him?" gia asked and Cara nodded. Raca often sang Jazz's Happy Friends song when she was badmood.

"Search in google, Gi. Udah, yuk eat," said Cara as she got up and walked out.

"Raca likes it the same way you."

~·~

Dinner this time increased residents. Gia's. The girl ate, but focused on Randy. The only way to know is to shake the head.

"Gia, have you told your mom that you're here?" ask Heri.

"Om Already. Last afternoon, Mama also asked the taxi driver to bring a textbook for tomorrow," replied Gia. Heri smiled, then said goodbye to go to the room.

After that, Randy also said goodbye to the room. "How, take Gia to the room. Tomorrow you are still in school, don't sleep at night" Nani said as she cleaned the dirty dishes.

Cara and Gia rushed to go to the room. "Gi, I want to tell you," Cara said as she closed the door to her room. Then walked away after Gia who was lying on her bed.

"What?" ask Gia. He tilted his body to the left and his left hand supported his face.

He also tilted his body to the right. But both hands he used as a pillow. "Lo know the empty house in front of my house?" cara asked and Gia nodded, "that's Kak Zul's house."

"really? How do you know?" gia asked a little surprised.

"Actually, I've known for a long time. From small even. I just didn't know that Zul's sister was my friend when I was a kid" answered Cara and Gia.

"So, have you met with Little Brother Zul?" asked Gia and Cara nodded, "don't you know that Brother Zul is your little friend?"

"6 years I did not see Kak Zul," answered Cara, "but, since I know Kak Zul is my little friend, I think there is something strange."

"What a weird?"

"He said he didn't know I was Cara, his little friend. My face has not changed from small. Trus, when my acquaintance also said that my name is Caramel. When he didn't know me" Cara replied.

"Once he forgets your little face."

"No way, Gi. He still keeps a picture of me as a kid" Cara said, "trus strangely, he said that he's been living in his house since the new year. But, why did he never come to my house."

"Busy times."

"Maybe. But, there's something weird again, Gi."

"Lo nethink mulu same as Brother Zul."

"It's not nethink, Gi. But Zul's brother is weird. For example, when I was late for school that day. At that time I accidentally saw him in front of an empty house and I don't know what to ride, I'm taking him."

"Where is something strange, Ra."

"She, Gi. Surprisingly, he didn't know that I was Cara, his little friend. At that time I was out of the house. He should have known me."

~·~

"Auntie."

Ningsih turned her head and found Cara who was standing in front of the fence of her house. "Amel, why call me Auntie anyway?"

How to smile there is no intention to say the reason to call Ningsih with the name Aunty. "Tante, Amel is going to school with my friend, so please tell Kak Zul that I can't go to school."

"Yes, Mama will tell Zul. You be careful, yes," said Ningsih and Cara just nodded. The waist-haired girl said her greetings, then stepped towards Gia, her friend who had been faithfully waiting.

"That's it, sister Zul?"

"Yes" answered Cara while riding on the bike. After ascertaining if Cara has been sitting comfortably, Gia also runs the motor. Judging from the rearview mirror, his best friend's face was so lethargic. Not like a tired man, but more precisely like a crowd of problems.

Before long, Gia motorbike has entered the motor park area at SMA BANGSA 2. How to get off the bike followed by Gia. Both of them walked to class. "Why is his face so cute?"

Cara just shook her head and kept quiet until she got to the front of the class. Gia was silent too. If he asks too much, then Cara will get angry.

"Udah, don't frown. I am so sad, you see. It's usually you who makes me laugh" Gia said as she rubbed Cara's shoulders slowly, after the girl sat on her stool.

After getting a reply to a thin smile, Gia sat down on her seat in front of Cara's bench.

Raca walked into the classroom. Usually, the first thing he saw was Cara's smile. But this time it was different. The girl hid her face on the table with the unraveled hair covering her head.

"Morning, Ra," said Raca after sitting next to Cara while gently rubbing the top of the girl's head.

There's no reply. Raca was astonished. He was confused between Cara being exhausted or there was a problem. "Why else?" This time How to answer, but with a head.

"His face is not hidden." Slowly How to lift his face. His back was on the chair.

Raca smiled, then she stretched out her hand to get rid of the hair that covered Cara's face. "Don't want to tell a story?"

"Do you want to hear my story?" ask Cara slowly. Raca nodded.

"No, I can't tell you."

"If you smile at me, can't you?" asked Raca with her smiling face.

Smiling sweetly as usual. The thing he does every time he sees Raca for the first time in school.

"It's just the smile I see first every time I get to school."
