Love is Not Finished
CHAPTER 23: The Last Ospek



Today is the fourth ospek, the last ospek for new students.


As usual, Prita and I were getting ready for college. We still use the bus, do not want to ride a car or motorcycle first.


This fourth ospek, we get the task of making puzzles and guessing a friend's puzzle. for those who can not answer must get ten signatures of seniors who wear alma mater suits.


And as always, Bram comes forward to explain what assignments will be given to new students.


Still yes, with cool style, flat and without expression. It's a lot different if he's near me.


I lost alias can not answer the puzzle of students from other Faculties. So, as a punishment I should get ten senior signatures.


So did Prita, it turns out the same fate as me. While the puzzle activity was still ongoing, the directly punished were asked to ask for senior signatures.


And it turns out it's not as easy as imagined. Each senior has his or her own way of giving his or her signature.


"Zanu, what task did you get?" ask Prita.


"Ngumpulin ten stones. You know where you see the stone?" askaku.


"Well! The rocks? Tuh much," Prita pointed to the stone in question is under the tree.


"It's pebble and small in size, it should not be the same senior. What are you telling Prita?"


"Hhhmm, don't laugh. Mimicking monkey style, hiks..," said Prita wryly.


"Ha.ha.ha.., it turns out that you practice too. Well, due to the badgering I yesterday right, ha.ha.ha..," I did not continue.


"Udah, I'm ashamed. But how else. Now I want to find another senior to sign for the eighth. Sana Zanu, you're looking for the stone. I walk first yes," said Prita.


I'm nodding. Start me down the road one by one to look for stones. It didn't take long, I finally found the stone behind the Rectorate building.


********


As I picked up the stone, I saw a senior wearing an alma mater jacket chatting with Sari. Suddenly they looked at me.


"Oh, so this is Sari, the girl who likes to get close to your guy Bram? Just ordinary!" said senior with a loud voice.


"Yes, how dare he! Still new to our campus, have done it. Look, just rock at the pickle, ha.ha.ha...,"


Sari mocked me with a loud voice. I didn't care about their words because I was still focused on collecting stones that should be the same size.


"Eh, you! Another sign, right? To get my autograph later, you have to follow my terms. What are we good about Sari?" asked the senior while glancing at Sari.


It seems like they are friends. After all, I also asked for the senior's signature.


"Sorry yes Brother, I don't want to ask for your brother's signature" I said.


"Baggot you!! Let's just teach him a lesson Sari," the senior shouted.


Sari nodded and suddenly she threw away all the stones I had collected in various directions.


"Remember ya! I'll mark you!! How dare you be with a senior! You're still stinking here!!" said the senior full of emotion while showing his index finger to my face.


I just shut up. Although there was actually a feeling of resentment in my heart.


If only I had the courage, I wanted to slap them one by one. I don't accept being treated like this.


"Hey!! Lora, Sari!! You two are too much! Good thing I passed by and saw your behavior!"


I, Senior and Sari turned their heads towards the source of the voice.


The deg! It was Bram! Thankfully, he came quickly.


"Lora! Starting today, you are expelled from the BEM members! And you Sari, never approach me again! Once again you disturb Zanu, I do not remain silent. Remember that!!" bram said in a very loud voice.


Just this time I saw Bram talking full of anger and emotion.


I saw Sari and senior were silent and lowered their heads. They know that what they did to me was wrong.


"Sorry Bram, I was just." Sari tried to explain it to Bram.


"There's nothing to explain, this is the second time you've interrupted Zanu. Should I wait for the third time? Just did I act?"


Silent sari a thousand languages.


I took the paper that had been filled with some senior signatures and gave it to Bram.


Bram. Then he picked up the pen in the pouch of the alma mater's suit.


Bram took his signature and wrote something on the paper and gave it to me.


"Zanu, you take this paper and give it to the senior who told you to. You don't have to collect the stones, your job is done,"


"Okay, Chairman" I replied.


Then I hurried to walk towards that place, where the senior who gave me the assignment was waiting.


I had a glimpse, Bram talking something to Sari and Lora. Then Bram stepped off into the Rectorate building.


Thank you, Bram, for saving me today. I don't know what would happen if Bram wasn't around.


Why is there always Bram? He was always there when I was in trouble.


********


Before I handed over the paper I was holding, I saw what Bram had written there.


"Ibram Aaron Smith Ox" and the word "Close" at the end of his signature.


Waw! His name is like the name of a bule. Is he some kind of outsider? Thought.


I finally knew his name. Without having to find out again. With her fine face, it was likely that she did have an outsider's offspring.


Uh! Someday I will also know what he really is, sooner or later.


"Sister, here's the paper," I thrust the paper I held onto the senior.


"Lho, wasn't it your job I told you to take the stone? Where's stone?" ask senior astonishment.


"Look at the paper first, brother," I replied.


Senior opened the paper I gave you earlier. He looked shocked when he saw the contents of the paper.


"OKAY. You don't have to ask for a signature anymore, it's done. Please enter the ranks and join your friends there," said the senior.


"Good Brother,"


I walk towards the line. I saw Prita was already there. He smiled to see me.


"How's Zanu, it's all complete, isn't it his signature? How long have you been? The task given by the senior is heavy?" many Prita ask questions.


"So there was a small incident when I was collecting stones. I met Sari and her senior friend. I'm being cut off with them. Good thing there's a Chairman through there," I replied.


Prita was shocked and frowned.


"Certainly? What happens next?" ask Prita curiously.


"The two were angry with both of them. Keep asking for my paper. The chairman immediately signed and made the writing close. That's it, that's all, '" I replied.


"Keep, what is your job? Shouldn't get ten seniors' views?" ask Prita wonder.


"Well that's him. Miraculously, when senior saw the contents of my paper, I was immediately told to enter the ranks. Senior says it's done. Only five signatures have been collected. Weird right?" my answer.


"Yourah..! Cool too yes, just the Chairman's signature, you are duty free. Steady on this our Chief!"


Prita bobbing head.


"Well, let alone you, I wonder too. Why is everyone on the same page, Chief?"


"Rani would have said, that our Rector, his uncle the Chairman. But, I think it's natural that the Chairman is reluctant to many people. Although the person is flat and firm, but he is caring and kind" replied Prita.


"Maybe,"


Prita and I were silent, busy with their own thoughts.


Thank you, Bram, for helping me today.
