My Love at the Rainbow Campus

Epsbg.31

One year already Rena took a leave of absence from college. During that time he lost contact with his friends because he was busy working. Maybe only one or two friends at the campus are still occasionally contacted to ask the news. They are Aisha and Miss.

From Aisyah, Rena knows that Lala also quit college. In addition to the problems with Aisyah, it turns out that Lala also has other problems that make her stop continuing her studies. The problem is related to both parents who decided to divorce. The divorce was allegedly due to the presence of a third person in their relationship.

With a pounding chest, like the mood experienced by people who just entered college, Rena stepped towards her campus. Indeed, he is not a new student, but the time of year feels enough to make him like a new student. Many pairs of unfamiliar eyes glanced at him. Rena herself was only able to look down to avoid the eyes filled with curiosity until the voice of someone who was familiar enough to call her name.

"Rena, wait!" sahut Aisha.

"Aisha," said Rena, turning her body back to Aisha. They also embrace each other, releasing long-buried longing.

"It's nice to see you back. How are you, healthy?" ask Aisyah.

"Alhamdulillah, as you can see, I am fine,"' replied Rena.

"Yes, good, but.

"But what? Go, say! Don't make me wonder !" sahut Rena's.

"You're getting fat" said Aisyah smiling.

"Yeee, kirain what's wrong? But yes, you know where?" ask Rena

"This, from your cheeks that are more chubby," replied Aisyah as she pinched her cheek

"Aw, ice pain. Yes, you are, passing! New friends enter have been persecuted like this," said Rena

"Eh, sorry, sorry, I miss you" Aisyah said, smiling at him.

"Oh yeah, means this semester you're still in the 5th semester huh, Na?" ask Aisyah

"You could say so. But not really," replied Rena.

"What do you mean?" ask Aisyah.

"Yes, it was the 3rd semester yesterday I took a lot of courses in the 5th semester, so now just take the rest, so just take the rest, while the rest of the credits I use to take courses in this 7th semester," said Rena.

"O, that. Keep taking all these 7th semester Na?" ask Aisyah.

"Alhamdulillah, take it all, and now I am a 5th semester child and 7th semester" replied Rena

Lecture that day was finished, Rena began to feel the difference in the campus. All three of their Asian campus lights, which usually go back and forth around the campus, are now no longer visible. Yes, of course, because this year they have finished with their studies and earned a bachelor's degree.

How's he doing now, huh?

Rena's mind went back to Alan. The figure he had been missing for a year.

Rena went down the stairs with a limp body. There was not the slightest spirit and passion that seemed from the sweet face to as big as the shadow of a human figure he knew as if passing through the place he would tread.

Is it true what I saw just now? It's like I saw Brother Alan. Ah, but where possible, he's graduated. Or maybe he became an assistant lecturer at this campus. (Think Rena)

"Check!" sahut Aisyah surprised Rena

"Oh, Iis you've got it!" sahut Rena when he saw the sudden appearance of Aisyah.

"Some of you keep on hanging out there. What else do you think?" ask Aisyah.

"No, I was like seeing Brother Alan through here" replied Rena.

"Oh that, it could be that is indeed Brother Alan," said Aisyah.

"And there is still a Goddess, maybe she is here to pick up the Goddess," replied Aisyah.

"Oh, yes," said Rena

Right, I forgot, Alan's sister is the Goddess' boyfriend. Maybe it was so good to see him, I forgot about it. (Batin Rena sad)

"Yuk, Na, we're home!" bring Aisyah.

"Hayu," said Rena following Aisha's invitation.

Six months have passed, now Rena is in the final semester. Although, if using the lecture system normally, Rena should have just entered the 6th semester, but because Rena is a smart student, she has completed her 6th semester in the 4th semester yesterday, before he took a vacation. Now all that remains are a few courses.

In this semester, Rena is also busy with the process of submitting proposals for his script later. Therefore, he was busy pacing back and forth to the library room to look for materials for the creation of his scripts later.

The library room hasn't changed much. The room was almost the same condition as the conditions a year ago before Rena took leave. The room witnesses Rena accidentally kissing Alan's cheek. Every memory that came to light Rena could only blush in shame.

Rena also chose several books and thesis students who have graduated to be used as material for writing his script proposal. However, a thesis with a very familiar name was able to steal his attention. The opening of sheet by sheet thesis belongs to Alan Bagaskara.

Rena seemed transfixed when her name was written in the preface, as a friend who provided passion and motivation for Alan in the preparation of his script. Later, Rena also read a passage of words written by Alan in gold ink. In this article, there is one sentence that attracts the attention of Rena. The sentence reads :

~Memories can bind separate souls ~ (Alan)

The panicked cries of some students from the lower floor so echoed in the ears of Rena who was still in the library room. It attracted Rena to approach the origin of the sound.

Downstairs there is a man holding a knife to the Goddess' neck. The man seems to be out of his mind.

"Stop all of you! Or I'm not afraid to stick this knife in his neck!" it was the man's scream that made some of the people watching him stay away from him, but not with Alan.

Bugh

As fast as lightning Alan made a move that made the man fall down. An

fights occur between them. Alan managed to keep the knife that almost stuck to the neck of the Goddess as he was trying to take the Goddess from the man. However, fateful for Alan, the knife actually injured his arm to bleed a lot.

"Aww," cried Alan in pain.

Hearing Alan's cries of pain Rena's heart was moved to help him. He then took out his handkerchief which he kept from his bag. However, he had not been able to dress Alan's wound. Suddenly the Goddess fainted from not being strong looking at the blood that kept flowing from Alan's arm. Seeing the Goddess lying on the floor, without caring for the wound on his arm, Alan immediately carried the Goddess and took her away from that place. However, before his departure, his two eyes had met with Rena's eyes. Various feelings were mixed as the two pairs of eyes met. Alan immediately turned his gaze away from Rena and continued his steps to take Dewi to the hospital.

Rena just watched the scene. As Alan with a face full of anxiety carried the Goddess away from that place. There was sadness, pain, anxiety, and disappointment that enveloped his heart.

"Ah, thank God, Brother Alan managed to save his wife," said Aisyah who stood beside Rena

"Wife?" asked Rena surprised

"Yes, I'm sorry, I forgot to tell you that a month after Alan won his bachelor's degree, he proposed to Dewi and married her" Aisyah replied.

Married, Alan's brother is married. So this is the end of the story with Brother Alan (inner Rena).

When a sense of disappointment and sadness stopped in Rena's heart, he still could not believe that the time of one year had changed the destiny of his life.
