Melodia Rain

9. EAGLES AND RAIN

The toughest three hours for Lea finally passed. Tri as the new chairman ended their training.

Adi brought some bottles of mineral water that he bought from the Canteen that could still be knocked on the door even though it was dusk. The first person Adi gave drinks to was Lea, pitying that the girl was almost out of voice.

“Unexpectedly, Eagle even brought his toys to replace the Desi.” Adi sat down next to Lea. Trying to embrace the girl's shoulder, Lea moved away.

“What deh?” lea was upset, trying hard to open the bottle cap in her hand.

“What do you mean, Di? It's really nice to say.” Tri snatches the bottle in Lea's hand, opens the lid, then he returns it to Lea.

“Although he made a failed cave in teraktir Arief. But thank God that Lea will help us in the middle of the preparation of Gebyar Ekskul.” timpal Gentra followed by a loud nod Lea.

“Huu. You both do not know, this morning the cave mergokin the Eagle wants to use the girl in the Music Room. Where is nyosor-nyosor try.” Adi told me a passionate story. Lea made a reflex to push her shoulder.

“Not the story, ih!” deny Lea with a red face holding back the annoyance at Adi. Forgetting that what was pushed was one of the school's crutches.

Tri and Gentra looked at each other at Lea's reaction. The two then simultaneously glanced at the Eagle who was busy playing the phone.

“Anjir, he does not deny. I think it's really.” whispered Tri.

“But Eagle is... Gay?” timpal Gentra's.

Leah tried to explain everything, including the task book and the agreement with the Eagle. But strangely as hard as he explained, the Eagle's friends were in complete disbelief.

They were more convinced that Lea had almost been wiped out by the cold face. Because they did not get confirmation or direct rebuttal from Eagle who was busy calling Bang Eka.

“Ya already, whatever!” Lea's surrendering. Prefer to immediately gulp the water in his hand rather than continue to debate the friends of the Eagle.

The fresh taste immediately spread throughout the body when the cold mineral water made it through the esophagus.

Lea still enjoyed the freshness of the drink, but the Eagle's hand just grabbed the bottle that Lea was holding to make the girl choke.

Then without a word he spent the rest of the drinking water in one gulp.

“Manis.” The grinning eagle stared at the empty bottle in his hand.

“Ya greetings, hard code!” Gentra bobbing heads followed by nodding Tri and Adi.

“What the fuck are you? You are already given a bottle.” exclaimed Lea trying to reach an empty bottle of drink, with the sinless face of Eagle standing up while raising his hand so that Lea could not reach the bottle.

“Lo blind? Can't see the cave hasn't been opened?” The eagle lightly brandished the still intact bottle of drink to the front of Lea's face.

Soon Lea snatched the bottle and unsealed it. He wobbles right in front of the Eagle, making the water in the bottle splash into the Eagle's face and clothes.

“Noh, it's been built.”

Lea gasped as the Eagle suddenly slammed the empty bottle hard. He immediately stopped his action. The eagle stood stiffly with both hands clenched firmly, looking at Lea with a gaze full of fury. At once Lea did not dwell, she regretted that she had unwittingly dared to make fun of an Eagle.

Lea glanced at the three Eagle friends who were looking at her anxiously, with their cues telling Lea to immediately apologize to the Eagle.

“Lang, I min..”

“Guys, cave first yes.” The eagle cut Lea's speech while waving to friends who were still sitting on the classroom terrace, then just passed to the motorcycle parking lot. As fast as lightning he drove the blue Ninja away from the School.

Lea was still in her place. He thought the Eagle was going to do something, but he didn't. But somehow he felt hurt when the Eagle ignored him, thinking Lea was nothing after he worked hard all day.

At least he wanted to hear a thank you from the Eagle. Ah already. He did not want to have much hope for the devil. The idol!

“Yaaah, no exclamation ah.” koor third friend Eagle together.

Lea turned to the three with an annoyed face, “ What do you want, huh?”

Instead of answering Lea's question, the three of them looked at each other while chuckling. Then a leisurely pitch left Lea who was still upset alone.

The clock on Lea's hand showed at eight pm but public transportation did not arrive. He stood in front of the gate, watching how the barrage of vehicles jammed without even moving a bit.

He should have been preparing to close the Shop at home.Now, let alone close the Shop, to go from school alone he was confused how to.

Rain spots began to hit Lea's body, the longer the more swift with lightning accompanied by thunder booming in the black space there.

The first rain suddenly flushed, forcing Lea to take shelter on the terrace of the closed shop. A little far from the crowds and the Highways. But that's the closest place Lea can reach to save herself from a sudden rain attack. Because the shop on the side of the highway is already crowded by other shade.

The white-gray uniform of Lea was already drenched in splashes of water. The night air was getting colder making him shiver. Let alone this first rain, the smell of pitch-black soil began to pierce the nose.

That smell was the thing Lea hated the most, as it made her dizzy and nauseous. Reminds me of the event where death took Lea's brother in the past.

Lea could have asked Arief or Nandar to pick her up. But Lea's cell phone is dead, she can't even contact her parents who must have been very anxious waiting at home. Lea was confused to do what to see jammed not moving goods as detailed with the rain increasingly heavy.

The longer, Lea's body began to numb. Due to weakness, he sat on the floor. No one can help because he is alone, the drivers must be reluctant to come out because of the heavy rain.

The cold made Lea's body numb, her legs limp until she could no longer support her body. As the nausea grew, Lea's eyes slowly blurred.

The girl's heartburn relapsed at the wrong time. Remember he had not eaten anything since last afternoon and only drank half a bottle of water. He sat on the floor with a deep breath.

Faintly Lea's eyes saw several people approaching and shook her body, their voices sounding like the buzz of insects.

Not clear at all. A few moments later, a motorbike approached. The rider got off, took off his helmet and knelt down in front of Lea.

“Udah cave guess, lo haven't returned.”

The eagle held Lea's arm and took off the man's hand which had since shook the girl's body, “Excuse me, Mas. She's my sister.”

The heavy voice of the man was very familiar to Leah's ears, but in a state of near loss of consciousness he forgot to remember. Slowly the grip on Lea's arm slipped off, accompanied by several people away including the owner of the heavy voice earlier.

A very warm parachute jacket. He knelt down in front of Leah, either because he almost fainted or was hallucinating. Lea saw the figure of the Eagle very close, even their knees touched.

“There was an accident, likely to be stuck until midnight later.” he explained.

The heavy voice, cold speech style and sharp gaze that was now only five inches in front of Lea's face. It was clear that it was an eagle.

He raises the hoody to cover Lea's entire head. Do not forget to close the jacket zipper, making Lea's body sink in the oversized jacket.

“Where are you abis from? As long as it's okay is your jacket I'm wearing for a minute?” lea's lips trembled violently, even the voice of the little girl almost disappeared so weakly.

Instead of answering the question, the Eagle instead flexibly put a helmet on Leah's head. He protectively held Lea's arms together and guided the girl to get closer to a motorbike.

“Still, Mas, Mbak, have nolong my sister.” said the polite Eagle to some people around. They all nodded and told me to be careful.

Lea's body began to warm up because of the jacket she was wearing, making the girl's consciousness fully recover. Holding on to the motor handlebar while watching the Eagle, the man was busy wearing a raincoat and then climbed into the seat.

“Hei, come. What do you want to go home with?”

“You want me to go home?” with lips shaking Lea still wanted to be sure, the Eagle snorted and rotated the eyeballs. His hand violently pulled Lea up onto the motorcycle seat in the back.

Leah can't argue anymore under those circumstances. Full of struggle he was finally able to rise to the top of the high seat. Grateful the jacket he was wearing was too big to protect up to the knee.

If not wearing that thing, the smooth legs behind Lea's short gray skirt would have been exposed everywhere.

Now, Lea's problem is on the seat. He must hold his hands on the back of the Eagle so as not to docked because the position of the seat leaning forward and a little slippery.

“Excuse me.” whispered Lea carefully while sticking a hand on the back of the Eagle's burly.

The eagle takes the mouse's path to avoid the traffic jam, the, Lea had only mentioned the address of the house once and the man was able to seamlessly find a shortcut that even Lea never knew would lead her home. Don't know if the Eagle almost every night goes through that road.

The night wind blew so hard, among the raindrops Lea accidentally inhaled the smell of woody out of the Eagle jacket he was wearing.

The fragrance that makes Lea comfortable and calm. It's just that the Eagle's motor speed is too fast, making the girl dizzy and sleepy.

Lea leaned her forehead against the wide back of the Eagle to resist dizziness, hopefully the man understood that he was doing it because he was not well. Not want to enjoy closeness like the expectations of most students in school.

But the girl suddenly did not know herself. He breathed in the very scent of woody that burst out from behind the Eagle's thin raincoat.

Already knowing that it must be the smell of the Eagle's body, Lea even sipped deeper. The smell is so tempting and fun.

Lea hurriedly shook her head, resuscitating who for a moment was lulled in the smell of a man's body. Especially the man with the demonic aura.

Unexpectedly, he felt the Eagle's hand stretched out backwards, pulling Lea's hand resting on his back. He guided the girl's hand to circle the Eagle's waist with the forehead now turning as a focus.

Not only the streets were jammed, Lea's common sense at that time also suddenly jammed. Unknowingly one other free hand coiled around the Eagle's body until he actually hugged the man from behind.

“Do not fall.” he said offset the noise of rainwater.

Lea did not reply, only nodding at the Eagle's back then closed her eyes. Hope the Eagle can't hear what Leah is hearing. Heartbeats belong to no one, colliding quickly with the speed of the motor.

“Emm, thanks. Want to stop by first, drink an angel or change clothes? Fear you are sick.” bargain Lea awkward while handing over a wet parachute jacket, coincidentally when it rains just a thin drizzle.

He had wanted to wash it first, but when it came down the Eagle immediately gave his hand to immediately return what he had borrowed.

“Not to be so considerate, mengemodusin cave ya?” accuse the Eagle of making Lea panic and shake loudly.

“Eng. I really don't have max..”.

“Everything, never ask people. Makes things wrong, right?”

Lea nodded loudly at the question, she remembered when in the Music Room asking the Eagle this.

After feeling the Eagle help him, he also had a lot of guilt for the man. When Leah did something wrong, she did not apologize at all. But right now, maybe just saying sorry won't be enough.

“Do not worry, the cave directly back to this abis house. BTW Thanks yes.” The eagle turned the motor back on.

“For?”

“Because you are willing to join Inti Band.” The eagle held out a smile. Lea nodded, should he be the one to thank him for coming home safely thanks to the Eagle.

Without saying goodbye, the Eagle immediately stepped on the gas pedal and rushed out of Lea's house.

 

Leah looked at him for a moment, The rough boy's eagle just drove him home without asking. Still do not understand the attitude of the Eagle who often changes do not know the time.

 

So remember the words of Irwan, if Lea will have a different view of the Eagle after he knows better. Just one day he had interacted with the Eagle, that person was not as scary as his shadow all along.

Isn't it a mistake if I say that Eagles actually have a good side?

 

“Hmmm rain, and Eagle...Cold!” lea Embus.

 

Then entered the house, approaching the two parents who were waiting in agitation. He has a new PR tonight, easing the concerns of his father and mother.
