Melodia Rain

14. EVERYBODY KNOWS

The spread of classical music from the tape recorder means that dancers must immediately prepare. As the music turned fast, down came the angelfish dancers to the field with Lea as the center of the line. They began to show the ability to move the body according to rhythm.

The eagle stood at the edge of the field panting, after rebuking Desi he tried hard to find Lea.

After hearing the music typical of dance Ekskul, he rushed to infiltrate among the rows of students who enjoyed the performances of the dancers. The sharp eyes of the man were fixed to see how Lea danced so nimbly among the other dancers.

That innocent was really like a fairy. Inner Eagle. Since childhood all the Eagle knows is fighting, people around are enemies. But a small butterfly managed to sneak into the cave that Eagle woke up. Small but glowing wings, he was touched when the pair of wings incarnated into the pupils of an Azalean Kiandra.

“Kiandra and field, really fit.” Lirih Eagle.

His mind recalls how it used to be after MOS that he noticed Lea every day. Keep an eye on when the girl comes out of the classroom opposite the Eagle.

Then he is more often seen punished by Ririn by cleaning the field of garbage for preparation for training, because Lea is often careless and nosy to disturb other members.

After the flag ceremony, the eagle was razed because of long hair. But Lea instead, he was razed because of the short skirt. Mr. Setiawan with his scissors split the side of Lea's skirt right in front of the Eagle. Until Lea's thighs are exposed to be an example of all students so as not to do the same thing.

The eagle almost punched Mr. Setiawan at that time if only he did not see how Lea even with a grim apology and just passed by.

The eagle always felt intrigued by Lea's behavior. The girl is sometimes sloppy, sometimes funny, innocent to annoying. One year the Eagle achieved various achievements in school just to grab Lea's attention. However, the girl did not look at him at all.

The curiosity that stirred in the Eagle's chest was more chaotic when Lea did not respond well to all that the Eagle had done. She thought Leah would be like any other girl, adoring her and attracting attention in various ways. Honey, Lea even knew about the Eagle when they were in class three months ago.

Then anger arose, not at Leah but at self. Angry because he actually became confused and claustrophobic when faced with the girl, and the Eagle's indistinct attitude even ignited the flames of hatred in Lea's eyes.

“Hai.” Arief's greeting surprised the Eagle, not since when the man had been right next to him.

Arief excitedly pointed towards Lea, “You see, it's Lea!”

“I know, he is my class” replied the lazy Eagle without diverting attention from Lea.

“Kiandra, that's how you call him, isn't it? Yet it is the Azalea, a simple but beautiful and attractive perennial flower. Just like the guy, I really like Lea.”

Arief said so sincerely full of smiles. The eagle nodded, a little hot on the gentle man's honesty. Instantly he looked at Arief who was looking at him.

“You also like it.”

Arief made a statement, no longer a question. The eagle wanted to bury himself alive. Very good, everyone knows what is going on in his heart.

It rotates both eyes with a breathless, “Haaah! You're not much different from Ririn the Grandma Lampir, you little sisters suck.”

The eagle put both hands in his pants pocket and left the field. As much as possible he covered his feelings, but somehow his close friends seemed to know easily what the Eagle was feeling now.

“Am I too flashy? Am I jumping too far past my limits? None of this is true. I began to doubt everything, worried about the steps I had to take. Why does it feel so hard to bring back the situation when Eagle and Kiandra don't know each other at all?” Think Eagle.

In the end, why can't this difficult situation come back, the answer is just me. I hesitated to close the door after it opened so that the little butterfly could enter and exit freely. All's fault. Kiandra, loving you is such a confusing mistake.”

Arief smiled again at Lea until the show was over. Arief soon followed the girl to the Hall belonging to Ekskul Dance.

After the girl changed clothes, Arief invited her back to the field to see the performances of other Exkul. Because Arief who is a member of the PMR has finished displaying his abilities before Lea, so he stayed relaxed.

“Can't ya one day notice I'm the same brother Paisal?” Lea propped up her chin with both hands as she watched Ekskul Pramuka perform in the field.

Arief's heart slightly sighed at the question, he was busy teasing the Eagle but forgot Paisal's whereabouts. Although he knew who Paisal really was, but still the man had been the owner of Leah's heart for a long time.

“Can.” sahut Arief. Lea turned to her and saw the man smiling sweetly, “If the person was Lea, it definitely could.”

“Lea ih, small body but not approx.” Arief pouted while patting some of the dirty parts of his shirt.

“Sorry.” Lea shook Arief's arm because the man was still putting up without getting upset.

Two o'clock in the afternoon Gebyar Ekskul ended. All students still enjoy playing around the school. Some start taking the basketball, using part of the court for futsal, or just just hanging out. Some friends have gone home.

Lea, Sarah, and Winda gathered at the Canteen, where the three were engrossed in talking about Lea's performance on the Music Exchul while helping the girl string together the words she was about to pour in a letter.

At Sarah's suggestion, Lea now plans to write a love letter to Paisal like the fashion courtship of old times.

“Let's be more romantic and effective.” That's the opinion of the Winda.

So with a pounding heart, Lea also tried to pour the contents of the heart that he had been pending so far on Paisal. Although most of the sentences are the result of the thoughts of Sarah and Vinda.

“Yeay done!” exclaim third. Lea then neatly wrapped the letter they made with a beautiful pink envelope.

“Sister Paisal is still in the Scout basecamp, let me give him.” Winda gladly offered to be the mailman, rushing to the Scout Exchanges which were located in the back of the School.

Lea and Sarah eagerly guessed Paisal's reaction later when receiving the letter. Expect to be anxious about the friendly man's response.

Winda half ran towards the Scout basecamp. But, not yet had he reached his destination, he was intercepted by someone's tall body. At a glance from his posture it has been discovered who the person who suddenly came to block it.

“E...Elang?” Winda. A blink of an eye, the envelope that Winda was holding had changed hands, “Don't be taken, it's got Lea.”

“Tau coc.” The eagle grinned and then put the envelope into the bag of pants.

He stared intently at Winda while rubbing the right fist. The shortness of the shortness of the breath. He knows that the Eagle is threatening at this time, “You still have business with me?”

“Ti-no.” Winda automatically turned around and ran as far as possible from before the Eagle.

“Lho? Cepet really Win?” sarah asked to find that Winda had returned breathlessly.

“Before I sampe to Brother Paisal..” Winda gulped down Lea's drink to stabilize his breathing,

“Elang snatch his letter. He threatened to hit me if he didn't hand me the letter. I'm sorry Lea.”

“Elang?” Lea ensure. Winda nodded hard, “What the fuck does he want to take people's stuff?”

Leah got up from her seat, and left the Canteen, though Sarah and Vinda had tried to prevent it. Seriously, he's pissed. Eagle Again.

Didn't they implicitly agree that after Gebyar Ekskul the two had no business anymore? lea's appearance on stage was as a debt repayment Math task the other day. But what does the Eagle want now that he's looking for?

“Just whatever happens, I have to take mine.” Lea stepped foot rather quickly, going around the school looking for the whereabouts of the Eagle. He forgot to ask where she met the man.

Lea tried to go to class, who knew the eagle was there. However, when he arrived he did not find the Eagle, there were only a few friends who when he asked did not know where the Eagle was.

Lea stepped into the Music Arts Room. They said that the Eagle disappeared after Lea had a fight with Desi this morning.

Lea's last option was to set foot into the garden beside the school, where she saw several times that the Eagle was silent there. It was the right decision. Leah saw the Eagle leaning against the clove tree while smiling sinisterly as she read Leah's letter.
