Hanif and Strange Feelings

Teng...

The school bell has rung indicating today's lesson is over. Many of the class children had already scattered out like ants coming out of their nests. I'm still in class, doing the chores I need to do tomorrow morning. I males ngerjain at home, because if already nyampe his innate house just want to malesan and the atmosphere is very supportive to learn nothing.

Ojan: Fal, back? I want to go back with Ajir.

I: First there, I did PR first.

Ojan: At home I have been there with Ajir. He said he'd take PS there.

I: Ah no ah, I used to do it here. If you want to go to my house, it will be on Saturday or Sunday.

Ojan: Yaudah I first yes brader. Nif, I'm duluaaan!

Hanif: Yes, be careful Jan.

After Ojan and Adzir left the class, now in the classroom leaves only a few students including me and Hanif. Then I continued to do PR. There were probably about 10 minutes I was working on PR and 10 minutes too Hanif was still sitting next to me. I then put down the pen and spoke to Hanif.

Name: Nif...

Hanif just rolled his eyes at me.

Me: Not coming home?

Hanif shook his head and then I nodded slowly, then refocused on PR.

The day had gone by in the afternoon, the sun was now starting to move from his throne and went to his house. A golden orange light shone on my classroom that had started to be quiet without occupants. The task I was working on was now almost done, I kept the pen on the table and stretched my hands into the air.

Name: Aaaahhhh....

After stretching my hand, I put the stationery in the bag. The rest I do at home. When I put the stationery in, I realized Hanif was still next to me staring blankly at the door. Do not know why he is still in the classroom, but usually if the bell has come home he must also go straight home.

Lv: Nif?

I called Hanif and then he looked but it was without any murderous aura.

I: Ko hasn't come home yet?

Hanif just shook his head.

I: Laper?

Hanif lowered his head and nodded small.

I: Yudah yuk come home, we're looking for food outside.

Hanif immediately raised his head and I saw his face smiling sweetly then nodding enthusiastically. I also smile when I see a smile on his face, at least I feel that Hanif is now not angry with me. The two of us left school walking side by side and occasionally we joked around laughing together.

Hanif is not angry with me anymore.

I looked around and heard the sound of parking lot whistles twitching with the sound of police whistles regulating traffic, sometimes the sound of their whistles being covered by the sound of the roar of machines passing by. This afternoon the atmosphere is very crowded, probably because it is already hours of work that causes traffic to be this dense.

Author: Yuk Fal.

Me: Ugh? Yuk!

Hanif smiled at me and I returned Hanif's smile. Because the catfish pecel stall that has been filled with people who just came home from work, I invite Hanif to eat at my house and my house happens to be not too far from the catfish pecel place.

Hanif: Brother Amel wants to go to your house Fal? Whynot?

I: You don't know, he said he wanted to tell me something. Are you really not angry with me anymore? Haha.

Hanif: But it's also just jerking off right now the nyebelinya out, want me to be reinvented again huh?!

Hanif began to show his face back. I just smiled a little and shook my head slowly.

Hanif: Doesn't it feel good to have me locked up all day? So sensitive guy tuh that's why wuuu!

I: You are not ordinary, just keep coming home from school there are waiting for me to finish doing PR deh. Who yeah?

Hanif: I really am here, right?!

I: Well, joking Nif times, mengambek mulu his work feeling.

Along the way to my house, Hanif actually diem the same me. Crazy one! It is also better now it has been remanded again! This girl wants something?!

Arriving at home, I saw an aunt sweeping the yard.

I: Just got home.

Aunt: Who is cep? Meuni geulis kieu - euy!

I: Oh this is my classmate bi. Name's Hanif.

Hanif: Hanif bi, Naufal's team.

Hanif then smiled while saluting to Auntie.

Aunty: Eh yes cep it already has a guest in dalem, daritadi nungguin acep.

I: Who's bi?

Aunt: That, Mr. Rendra's son. Aunt forgot her name.

I: Oh, thanks bi. I go to Dalem first.

Aunt: Yes cep...

I then went inside and was followed by Hanif. I saw Amel eating a snack in the living room.

Amel: Long time you Fal, uh there's Hanif. Cie-cie is okay?

Me: He was, now he's on it again.

Amel: Is that so? Nif, Naufal why?

Narrative: Tau ah. Bete's with him.

Amel: Why? Let's tell Nif.

Hanif: That's it, brother, he's a very insensitive guy! Overall know!!!

Amel immediately stood up and pulled my hand to Dalem.

I: Apaan ah narik-narik.

Amel: You try to persuade him what cake cake is, I said do not cuddle girls!

I: Yes, how else does his son, yes I am diemin.

Amel: YES! Refer to him now! By the way she's a pretty cake what a cake, whatever!

I snorted in annoyance and returned to the living room followed by Amel from behind.

I: Nif, eat yuk!

I gave my best smile to him. But he just glanced at me with a murderous look. I looked back as if asking Amel for an idea. Amel just glared at me and pushed my back while whispering.

Amel: Deketin Hanifnya.

I then approached Hanif, following the advice of Amel.

I: Yuk ate Nif. You're laper, right?

I smiled back at Hanif but Hanif just looked up to see me. Then he gave me the bundle of catfish pecels he was holding. I took the package from his hand and turned around, I saw Amel holding both hands while glaring at me, gesturing for me to hold Hanif's hand. I shook my head a little and then turned back to face Hanif.

Lt: Yuk!

I extended my hand. I saw Hanif smiling and then welcomed my hand and stood up. Finally I clasped Hanif's hand towards the dining table. As I passed Amel, he whispered to me:

Good jobs. Abis eat, I wait in front.

Amel smiled and then went ahead.

I don't know why, I think there's something different about me. I felt a strange feeling that I had never felt before when I saw Hanif smiling. And by the time I clasped his hands, I felt that both of my knees were instantly limp and my heart was beating faster than usual.

Then, my logic plays. I may not like Hanif, I know Hanif and not maybe in a fast time that I can like him. What's more, I haven't liked the opposite sex in nearly 16 years of my life.

But I can't deny today I'm happy.

Happy because for the first time, I ate together with a girl...

...and he's a Hanif.
