MAY

11. A Leaf of Feeling

Intan was casually sitting on a bench under a mango tree located in the school garden.

His fingers dance on the screen hp. He was playing a piano tile game. He thought this was one way to escape from heart problems.

"Why?"

Hearing that voice Intan hurriedly looked up and smiled. But after sweeping the views across the park, all he encountered was air. There is no human object other than himself.

"Okay, maybe just imagination. There's no devil in broad daylight." Intan calmed his heart and then returned to his finger. Pressing each button that runs.

The sound of footsteps rang out, this time Intan looked up again. Fortunately, this is actually a human coming.

"Tan, what are you doing here?" Mia sat down and looked around.

"Cuman sat down," without looking back, Intan replied.

"Yeah Intan, in that class there are 34 benches to sit on. Why are you so far away? Hem?" Mia mumbled slowly while shaking her head.

"Rame tauk, it's lonely here."

"Sepy? Crazy lo Tan. More ramean here kaliii. Dih, you feel so good here?"

Hearing Mia's mysterious-sounding answer. With gas Intan turned. "Mi? Mean lo?"

Mia this time clucked. "Just be. Almost a month and a half to know me, you still gatau too?"

"What?"

"I can see."

"I can see it too. You think I'm blind," she sneered at Mia.

"No!" Mia assailed, "Gue can see those who can see most people."

I don't know, Intan immediately goosebumps. Just look, Mia said with a mysterious smile. I want it to feel like Intan's mashing Mia's head.

Inevitably, Intan made up his mind, "Ekm, come back!"

Mia smiled then nodded, as she was about to stand up, she found the upperclassman who often teased Intan coming. He looked at Intan and smiled. "This is all. Kak Enggar's cake wants to talk to you."

Intan suddenly freezes and does not know how to move. He just stood looking at Mia who was away while Enggar approached.

The man stood in front of her and smiled. A warm smile. Suddenly his body no longer freezes, now slowly he can open his eyes and move. It was as if Enggar's smile was emitting warmth to melt the ice that made Intan freeze.

"Why?"

Waita minute! That voice was exactly what he had heard earlier. When he was alone.

"Eh? I'll ask first. Didn't you come here?"

With a confused look Enggar shook his head, "New nyampe. I was traveling around Nyariin Lo. Uh, it's here."

"Soul doesn't have to be found. He comes alone, if you come to me it means we're not a match."

Intan answered calmly and sat down. He was insinuating that Enggar should not bother him anymore. He has a friend who looks like a girlfriend.

"Who said that? Thomas Alva Edison never found Mell's theory."

Mel. Again.

"Why are you going to find me?" Intan diverted the topic. Trying not to care about Mel's call just now.

"Kangen."

"Who are you?"

"Girlfriend candidate, fiancee candidate, future husband, future priest, candidate for everything," at the end of the sentence the man patted his chest proudly.

"Ex candidate too?" while smiling Intan asked.

"We're going out on a date. Vocabulary break up especially the former is worth burning, because aar we will be goals kopel Tan."

Breathing sounds back. Intan snorted and then chose to continue his game.

While Enggar was thinking hard to determine the topic of chat. "Mel-ekhm. Tan's."

I swear by anything Intan is holding back the death of anger and holding back his tears that are ready to fall at any time.

"What?" his voice shakes when he shakes.

"Lo's angry?"

"Why angry?" his voice now continued to tremble, while his breathing began to be irregular.

"Gue doesn't know what. Emang lo say the same with Meli."

"Lo's not angry? Or lash?"

"Who am I, brother? Want to be angry with your behavior?" venturing out, Intan turned his head and looked into Enggar's eyes.

And just then, Enggar saw Intan's wounded gaze. His eyes are glass. Now he feels very guilty.

"Yaudah Tan, let's date so you have the right to be angry or jealous of me."

"Call my name still isn't good. Do you want me to make a relationship?"

Dead Diamond held back tears, and his breath continued to be cut off.

"Gue seriously Tan...."

Full of regrets Enggar said.

The girl with tied hair now got up and wiped the tears that came out just now. "Gue is serious too. I have a heart, a feeling and a brain. Which still works."

"Then..."

"So far from me brother. You already have someone you like, Meli."

Intan stepped away while Enggar was now sitting while staring at Intan's back away.

He felt guilty for every tear that Intan had fallen.

Soon he catches up and pulls the girl's arm until Intan falls into his arms and cries.

"Sorry Tan's. Sorry." which." Enggar stuck his chin to the top of Intan's head. Hey, even though this girl in front of him is short, it's still. Enggar dear, more precisely start dear.

"Sister. Stay away from me, right? Pliss?"

"No, I can't."

"Cliches. I already know that your sister Meli is more than a friend."

He pushed Enggar's body to no longer embrace him, now he looked up and looked at Enggar's hair which was stroked by the wind.

"Meli has a boyfriend Tan. I never liked him."

"Reserve it while it's there, I don't want to mess with most people. Never realize the same people who really love you the same lo." Intan said weakly, her tears have now dried up.

"Gue likes you the same way Tan. Not Meli." Enggar weakens at the end of the word. There's nothing more to do.

"Kalo lo getting kek gini. I'm gonna hate you more, Plis. Don't make me hate."

Enggar laughed bitterly and then threw his face in another direction. "Sampe when do you want a gini?"

"My sample is ready" he replied quietly and faintly.

"Before I get away, I'd like to ask you a question."

"Please."

Enggar grabbed a leaf that had withered and had been blown away by the wind. "Lo-" he stopped talking to catch his breath.

"Gue love you. Do you want bales?"

Intan opened her mouth to answer. Buruh Enggar nodded.

"Gue asked this same question. Answer until you are really ready, and when you want to answer. Bring this leaf Tan, no matter how the shape is, tetep lo must bring this leaf. Think of it as my heart that you have to take care of.

Inget, every day the leaves will dry out and become more fragile. That's what's going to happen to my heart if you wait."

The long answer from Enggar was a little disturbing to Intan's heart. But, his mouth steadily answered just now.

"Then it broke brother. When this leaf is destroyed, it will be reborn in a different form. Your heart too, must be reborn with a different feeling."

Silent for a moment, they only spoke through the gaze of the eyes, the sound of crickets was heard, the wind gently caressed the cheeks of the two.

"Gue said goodbye, I take care of your heart."

Intan turned around with a leaf of feeling. Which has withered, but still survives, waiting for the masses who destroy him.
