My Heart to You, Brother (Love in Silence)

9. Cup at a glance (1)

This morning the sun should have started to show themselves so that the warmth of the morning could be felt. But apparently the sun was reluctant to shine, he continued to hide behind the clouds. Grey cloud. Cloudy weather. It is expected that it will soon rain.

After midnight PMI logo retrieval activities, now all busy dismantling the tent, and prepare for the event sayonara (ceremony closing).

There is a sense of haru, and happy mixed. Although they were together for only two days, they felt a closeness that was so extraordinary, like family, be it with the coaches, councilors and other colleagues. It was so fun and so effective in their hearts. No exception in the heart of Arrida. There is a beautiful memory that will never be forgotten in his entire life.

After the closing event, from the campground, most of them went straight home to their homes, because they had been picked up by their families, and there were also those who headed to school first, he said, whether it is to restore tents, equipment, or other equipment or for other purposes.

For those who return to school are provided two mini-brank buses. The rest are riding motorcycles with board brothers or cars with builders.

One by one they started to leave the campground. There is one mini bus and one motorbike belonging to the council brother who still has not left. They're still checking out the end. Make sure no one is left in the campsite.

"Missy! You guys go, it's raining!" uwais orders Rian and Asep to use the motor to get to school.

"Ready, and do it!" rian said jokingly. But he immediately rode his bike followed by Asep.

"Be careful, yes!" uwais said when the bike Rian was driving left him.

Uwais immediately boarded the bus, when it finally rained without permission. He had to stand with his other six friends, because all the seats on the bus were already filled. He stood by the door, like a conductor.

"Wait, Sir!" Uwais stopped the bus that had just run when he saw Arrida running towards the bus he was riding from the direction where the mains were supposed to be waiting for an invitation.

"There's still something missing!" uwais said while pointing at Arrida, who then stopped the bus.

Arrida gasped for breath, taking in as much air as possible when she was in front of the bus. Uwais extended her hand so that it could be grabbed by Arrida. But unfortunately the girl just looked at him, then he immediately boarded the bus by holding the iron handle of the bus door. Feeling rejected, by Arrida, Uwais immediately pulled out a helping hand while shaking her head and smiling.

Now they're standing close together, facing each other, almost eroding their distance if Arrida's backpack hadn't blocked it. Just then, just as he was about to board, he immediately took off his backpack and hugged it, so now Arrida was carrying her backpack on the front.

After Arrida boarded, the bus was traveling at a moderate speed maybe a little faster.

"Cong with the bus, Ar? " ask Uwais at Arrida. According to her knowledge, Arrida was included in the list of gigs her family picked up to go home.

" Yes, Brother," replied Arrida briefly.

"Lho, why?"

"Bang Adnan can not pick up now, brother there is an additional lecture, the lecturer suddenly had to go out of town, so now brother is still on campus, and only able to pick up later abis Dzuhur ... So I'm gonna go to school first, let me pick him up at school,"

Uwais understands. He nodded his head while looking at Arrida's half-wet face due to being exposed to rain water. Reflexes, his hand touching Arrida's haircut hit by raindrops. Tidied it.

Arrida. Shame and awkward.

"Woe ... Don't date at the bus door, ntar fall out!!!" There was the sound of Roni yelling at Uwais from the very back seat. Laughing at the other colleagues on the bus.

Uwais turned around without comment. He just gave her a big smile. Since the rescue event he did for Arrida, Roni was not ceaselessly tempting Uwais. He was angry, but somehow he liked it.

But from the back seat of the other side there was Erna who was staring with dislike. There was jealousy and envy seeing Uwais so attentive to Arrida.

For almost three years he was with Uwais, despite being in the same class and one organization, he never received the slightest treatment that Uwais gave Arrida, though he never stopped to always give more attention to Uwais, but unfortunately, Uwais never responded as expected. Disappointed of course, but until now he has not given up on fighting for his love for Uwais.

Silent.

There was a sense of discomfort with their current standing position, but somehow they seemed to enjoy it instead. Arrida kept her head down in embarrassment, but as usual, there was a strange and beautiful vibe present in Arrida's heart.

Actually Uwais also had time to feel the strange vibration in his heart. But soon he was tepis, especially after the rejection of the previous hand.

The bus suddenly braked. Avoiding something. The bus was run, making the passengers go along. Some screamed in surprise. Some people say the name of Allah. Some are talkative, and some are just stroking the chest neutralizing the heart.

However, without anyone noticing it, when the bus braked earlier, Uwais' body advanced urging Arrida's body. Arrida looked up at Uwais. Both of Uwais's hands held the door, holding himself back so that both of his hands were between Arrida's shoulders and head, as if about to embrace him.

There's a little landing on Arrida's tiny lips. Glimpse. Just a glance, a split second, when Uwais's lips touched Arrida's lips accidentally. Both of them were fixated, with mixed feelings. Arrida blinked her eyes, then turned her head out.

"Geez, what was that?" The bathin Bride.

"Huh ... Idaaq ... First kisskuu!" arrida's heart screeched.

"Aren't you papa Ar? " tanya Uwais neutralizes awkwardness. Honestly his heart also trembled with what had just happened. Although there is no element of intentionality, but still make the taste in his heart mixed.

"Oh my goodness this is a very calm person ... I don't know if my heart wants to go out!" Arrida was still muttering in her heart.

Half hesitating, Arrida nodded. He was still trying to neutralize the state of his heart. If he has to be honest, he's not okay right now. His body half-squeezed. His legs felt uncompromising to support his body.

Fortunately, one of Uwais's hands held him so that Arrida's body was not unsteady and fell out of the bus.

Arrida immediately regained consciousness, her brain working quickly. He ordered his heart to return to normal.

There was no more conversation until the bus arrived at the school. All the passengers got off, even Arrida and Uwais first got off, as they were at the bus door.

Rain is still flushing, Arrida immediately ran to find shelter, precisely in the school mosque. He didn't care where Uwais was. Right now his mind just wanted to get away from Uwais, not wanting to show his shame and awkwardness for longer in front of Uwais. He intended to calm himself down and digest what had already happened and what was going to happen in the future.

While Uwais after going down directly helped his colleagues to store equipment and camping equipment in place. He also tried to neutralize the state of his heart that still felt awkward. He also rushed to the school mosque to perform the Dzuhur prayer after all the equipment was stored.

Arrida was fiddling with her phone sending a message to Adnan on the edge of the school's prayer hall. He's already wearing his shoes. He tried several times to call her. But not lifted.

"and ... Still not home?"

Deg

Arrida knows who greeted him. Aside from his voice he also knew of a special call for him that was only given by Uwais.

"Oh Allah, why do we have to see you again, but this is still not because of the heart, how is this? " bathin murmur Arrida. He watched Uwais who was following him sitting not far from his side. His face looked fresh and still a bit wet.

"Astaghfirullah ... Very handsome ... Want to continue to look for fear of sin," murmured Arrida in a half giggling heart.

"Not brother, this was abis praying first ... New brother praying?" ask Arrida now.

"Hmm," Uwais simply nodded, "Not picked up yet?" tanyanya.

"This is another chat bang Adnan ... Mm, I go first, brother, Assalamu'alaikum." Arrida left Uwais. Half running. Uwais stared at him until Arrida's back was no longer visible.

"Wa'alaikumsalam" replied Uwais. He closed his eyes, thinking of something.
