Melt [NOT REVISED YET]

Shadow Cika

“Loe crazy huh?” Raka's shout made Yuda reflexively keep the headphone away from her ear.

“Hhaha. Abis loe, by the way, gave me goosebumps.” Clearly Yuda brought his headphone closer to his ear.

“Ha?” Said Raka stopped saying goods for a moment, “Po–pokonya I Just mastiin loe conditions aja. If you like the gift. I want to take a shower first, tomorrow you go to school, right? must yes! beware if you are not in school!” The following did not give Judah a chance to answer all of his questions. And the call is over.

“Basic Raka.” Yuda muttered while keeping his headphone back on his study table.

As time passed quickly, my daily life changed by a hundred and eighty degrees without Cika present by my side. I became very focused on facing school exams and national exams. My daily life is not busy with studying, and sometimes I also study groups with Raka and others.

It seems that not only am I thinking of having to change, the impact of Cika's departure really had an effect on Anya as well as the others.

And now that I'm really being impatient, it feels like I want to graduate and continue my education and find a job and save up to pick up Cika. But I quickly dismissed all my thoughts and refocused myself on my current life, because too often fantasizing can make you sick, if that fantasy cannot be fulfilled.

Then just on the last day of the national exam, I heard rumors from her close friends Nanami that the girl was already in a relationship with Ali. And somehow I feel relieved and happy at the same time, as if I can tell Cika that her best friend has opened her heart to others and is not fixated on me anymore. Although I was a little surprised by the rumors, it was only unexpected that Ali secretly liked Nanami.

Many times I couldn't control my longing and I wanted to meet her. I also have not dared to email him, my last email is a thank you for his birthday and the gift he has given me. And that email never got a reply from him.

Then I was confused about not having a topic anymore, and I was too afraid to make small talk with him. Because I didn't know how busy he was in London, so I never called him again, just staring at his picture on my headphone screen.

Six years later, I managed to become a teacher at my old school and became a mentor of the orchestra music club. Then for an entire year, I tried to get used to mingling with the other teachers, getting guidance and direction from them. Even Ms.Mita and Mr.Handoko were still teachers there, and my presence was welcomed by them.

So my time has passed for seven years, “What about your current condition Cika? are you all right? did you manage to achieve your dream?” My murmur suddenly remembered it as my gaze stared straight at the vast blue sky, ‘Very dazzling ..’ I continue in my heart.

Shortly after, the school bell rang. I quickly rushed to the next classroom to return to teaching, because the break was over.

‘Being a teacher at my old school, it really made me endlessly reminisce, it was like seeing Cika's shadow at school every day ....' My mind is hurrying.

"I'm first." Said a picket teacher to me, judging from his age he was the same as me and Cika. Septure.

"Yes." Yeah." Reply while putting some important files in my bag and check the incoming messages on my headphone screen.

'Group Line?' My mind while reading the contents.

Adam: Where is Yuda Loe? still in school?

"They said it was on the roof?" I muttered as I walked up the stairs to the roof, and stuffed my headphone into my pants pocket.

"But why are they all so excited? though we can find a more comfortable place why the roof? and again ... What does it mean with a special day? what's special about this day?" I continued to babble while continuing to walk up the stairs and look towards the roof door.

Without a second thought, I reached for the knob of the roof door, and when I opened it, the wind was so strong that I had to close my eyes with one of my hands, to avoid the dust that can enter my eyes.

It looks like Anya is standing in a shoe locker waiting for the arrival of her friends.Now Hana and the others come to Anya.

"How's it?" Hana asked with her eyes twinkling.

"Everything is OK! According to plan." Anya replied while showing her thumb and smiling broadly at the girl.

"Means we just have to wait for the right time to appear between them huh?" Adam Mumbled.

"After a very long time .. Finally today arrived too." Ali said with a grin and Nanami could only smile at her happy-looking lover.

"Luckily the weather was supportive, but I was very afraid that the weather would suddenly change." Raka looks worried.

"Just relax, I've contacted the rain handler, so it won't rain today." Oceh Anya tried to calm her lover.

"Pa–rain charmer?" Nanami and Hana said together, while Raka, Adam and Ali just threw a glance at each other when they heard Anya's chatter.

"Smurprise! you guys really don't have a sense of humor, do you?" Clearly Anya while sighing resignedly.

Seriate...
