Melodia Rain

3. LEA

Since the bell rang, Lea was constantly scribbling the contents of the bag, occasionally looking at Ms. Rahma who was waiting for books to be collected at the teacher's desk. One by one the students began to advance to collect Maths assignment books, but Lea was still trying to find. That book does not exist.

The girl panicked not playing, her time since rising to the eleventh grade three months ago— already four times she had to reprimand Bu Rahma because the Math task book was always left at home. Either because of his dislike of Mathematics or just a mere coincidence, which he obviously did not intentionally.

“Kiandra Azalea!” bu Rahma's voice sounded echoing, the caller immediately faced with a shunt step. Some friends he glared at for laughing at Lea who often deal with Ms. Rahma.

No need to say much, just with one eye gesture, Ms. Rahma had made Lea shuffle out of class. The punishment felt normal, Lea accepted.

Just be careful, tomorrow Mate's book will be brought. Let you guys go! Lea's vengeance with a globe-spanning determination. Classmates always seem happy when he gets the law.

“Erlangga Permana.” Ms. Rahma has returned to her service. Lea had glanced at the Eagle facing with a flat face.

“You have always been the pride of this class.” praise Bu Rahma gave the Eagle task book. Make Lea slack while throbbing, making fun of Ms. Rahma's praise.

Buk up!

So excited to see the Eagle, Lea's body hit the door that made the whole class could not help but laugh. Instantly the class became boisterous rumbling for some time.

“Azalea!” Ms. Rahma ruffled her waist. The clash of the middle-aged woman made the class go back into silence.

“Sorry, Mom. I have not been told that the door moved.” Lea cengengesan then flushed out of the classroom.

Leaving friends back giggling at his silly behavior. Bu Rahma and the Eagle who were still facing each other could only shake their heads together.

Initially Lea planned to go to the canteen, quite able to snack faster than others. But he immediately ignored the intention when he saw the twelfth class B was exercising. The desire for snacks he postponed first, Lea more interested in finding a clean seat on the terrace of his class in order to get the most strategic position to see them on the field.

Lea rolled her eyes here and there, looking for a man. Paisal. A Vice-Chairman at the Scout Excluster, his slender body and unaffected skin from the sun made him easy to find. Now Lea's upperclassman is busy mendribble basketball in the middle of the Field.

Of course the basketball captain who became the idol of everyone was also a Lea idol. Not just idolizing, Paisal was Lea's motivation to study basketball more deeply. Makes Lea a reliable female basketball player despite her petite stature.

It was so fresh that Lea's throat when she saw Paisal playing basketball. The sun suddenly cooled when a shady smile fell from the man's lips. Paisal's character is too friendly, no one is not happy with him. Although sweat had flooded everywhere, he still looked cheerful.

Leah was drowning in fantasy. He often imagined someday he could get the opportunity to be able to date Paisal, play basketball with the shady man or just spend time together.

It is common knowledge that Lea has a crush on Paisal, only that the news of Lea's feelings never reached Paisal. Don't be a girlfriend, just know her. It is true that Paisal was only a delusion of Lea.

Preoccupation Lea enjoyed the figure of Paisal disturbed because of the sound of footsteps Mr. Maman—one of the staff at the Kepsek— Office heard walking quickly, slowly knocking on the door of his class which was soon opened by Bu Rahma himself.

“Sorry Mom, Erlangga called Mr. Anto.” said Mr. Maman politely. Ms. Rahma snorted in annoyance, but she finally called the Eagle as well.

The tall student walked casually following Pak Maman's steps towards Pak Anto the Guru BP's room. It feels like the scheduled Eagle is always asked to face Teacher BP, twice a month. If it wasn't a matter of fighting in School, it would be a brawl problem with High School across.

Unknowingly Lea clucked while shaking her head to see the Eagle walking behind Mr. Maman.

Decakan issued by Lea seemed quite loud, evident a moment later the Eagle looks turned and looked with an expressionless face. Realizing that, Lea hurriedly covered her mouth with a palm. He then hit his head with another hand.

“Stupid me...” muttered Lea.

The eagle turned away, ignoring Lea and focused on following Maman. He knew clearly what the cause of his current call was, nothing but yesterday's fight with one of Rizal's friends.

“Lain times you will not escape!” furious Bobi outside BP Room, still revenge for the treatment of yesterday's Eagle who suddenly meddled in his affairs.

Bobi's eyes glared horror at the Eagle. The man replied with a grim glare.

“It should be the cave that says it.” said Cold Eagle.

Bobi clenched a fist in front of the Eagle's face, then stepped away leaving it with a vengeance. The eagle smiled disdainfully from behind Bobi's back, he was completely unafraid of anything.

The eagle walked towards the classroom, the man's footsteps halted immediately when he saw Lea still sitting there. The eagle with a furrowed forehead watched from behind.

Noticing how her cherry Lea looked at Paisal who was on the court, occasionally clapping softly when Paisal put the ball into the basketball hoop.

Eagle grinning. There was nothing he did not know about Lea, including the man the little girl liked.

The eagle secretly loved to scrape everything about Leah. Still the investigation was useless at all when he did nothing to get the heart of the girl.

Still standing in front of the classroom door, the Eagle reached into a cell phone in a pants pocket. Find one of the numbers in the phone contact. Sister Karla. Rushing Eagle contacted him, a second later the call was connected.

“Elang, Mbak knows why you are connecting Mbak. Enough, Mbak no longer want to pretend to be your guardian, everyone knows that Mbak is the sister of Tri.” The voice said across before the Eagle said a word.

“If there is a problem just call your Mama.”

“But Mr. Anto doesn't know. Ma'am once again, Eagle promises this last.” pinta Eagle hopeful.

The eagle heard a heavy sigh across followed by the sound of crying baby, Tri's niece who was just a few weeks ago born.

Leah who was sitting on the edge of the terrace turned her head when she heard the voice of the Eagle. Just for a moment, then refocused attention on the Field.

“Yes already, it's up to you, the rewards are of course like last week.” Said the person whom Eagle called Madam Karla, The Eagle heaved a sigh of relief.

He then saw Paisal waving with a smile. Not to Leah, but to her. The eagle returned Paisal's hand by raising one hand and nodding before Paisal returned to the game.

The eagle then glanced at Lea, he boasted a smile looking at Lea who was misbehaving because Paisal waved.

Surely Lea thought Paisal was waving at her, so Lea shook her shoulders like that. Funny too he became teasing Lea even though accidentally.

“Good. Tomorrow Ma'am comes here at ten, Sunday I will take care of Sintia when you go arisan.” promise Eagle.

“You are indeed my best babysitter.” A clunky voice across while turning off the connection.

Eagle gulped, again he had to take care of Tri's baby nephew, not whatever even though it was not Eagle ‘banget’ but for the sake of getting a false guardian whatever he would do. After glancing back at Lea for a moment, the Eagle entered the classroom.
