My wife Little Child

Chapter 11

Almost a month, the students of the 12th grade of Pelita Bunda High School are waiting for the graduation announcement with anxious feelings of hope.

Until finally, the anticipated day came. The 12th grade students crammed into a notice board. Trying to find their names on the graduation list.

"Alhamdulillah O Allah...! Yeee's... I passed Siiii...! Uh, this is your name. Lo also passed Siiii...!" pekik Dira girang's. Then the two thick friends hugged tightly. With a feeling of happiness.

And not long after, more and more voices were heard and excited cries of the 12th grade students. They celebrate when they find out their names are on the graduation list.

And most make happy, we can be sure all students of class 12 Pelita Bunda High School graduated with results that did not disappoint.

"Hey, Honey. Congratulations." suddenly Alif appeared in front of Dira.

Dira's face looked red. Understandably, he had not met face to face with Alif for a long time except through WA. "Thank you. You're safe too, Yank."

Then the two of them hugged each other for a moment.

"Ehem, ahem... No one congratulates me...? Oh Allah... Malang nian the fate of a single person," said Sisi ngenes.

Alif and Dira looked at it for a moment. Then laugh amusedly.

"Duringaattt... For all of us...!" exclaimed Dira girang, with a loud voice.

*****

Graduation and release of all students in class 12 Pelita Bunda High School has been held 2 days ago.

And now, their time of struggle is not finished here. Yup, that's right. There is still a month for them to prepare for entry into the University of their dreams.

Same with Dira and Sisi. The two friends have been planning for a long time to enroll in the same campus. Of course, the college of their dreams.

No wonder they study together. Sometimes in Dira's house, sometimes also in Sisi's house. Sometimes at their favorite cafe.

That night, the clock showed at 21:15 WIB.

But Dira is still struggling in front of a laptop with a book thick enough beside him. Preparation time for college entrance is 4 days away.

Kriet. Suddenly someone opened the door to her room.

It was Adit. He stepped inside with a cup in his hand.

"Mas really salut deh with adek Mas this one," he said. "Nih, hot chocolate for you" he continued while putting the cup he carried next to Dira's laptop.

"But don't get too suspended either. You also need to get enough rest. Don't sleep too late either. You'll be sick later" he advised softly.

"Hmmm," Dira replied with a not-so-obvious murmur.

"Thanks to Mas, the hot chocolate."

"Yes... Masquerade...,"

Adit walked out of Dira's room while closing the door.

"Hoaaahmmmm.." she yawned wide while stretching out both hands wide. Then he grabbed the cup containing hot chocolate and sipped it slowly.

*****

And finally, 2 more days is the day of the college entrance exam. Yes, Dira and Sisi's long-time college, Isaac Newton University. One of the famous and prestigious campuses in Jakarta. Favorite by many.

While the girlfriend, Alif, chose a list on a campus in Depok numbers.

That night the clock showed at 19:10 WIB when Dira was lying down in his room after dinner.

Yeah, he's on the phone with Alif.

"Awas aja yes. if you macem-macem there. If you go flirtatious to the girls, I won't forgive you!"

"Duilee. use ngancem-ngancem all. Usually tuh who likes kayak that, it's precisely he who wants to odd to the campus friends,"

"Iiihhh, I'm serious...!" said Dira pretending to be angry.

"You know anyways, there's nothing. I may not be a macem. I love you so much,"

"Hueekks, dreadlocks!"

"That's right, it's even said to be a dreadlocks," said Alif was wrong.

"Yes it's a dreadful thing..."

Alif took a breath. "Keep what...?" he tries to be patient.

"You meatballs, siomay, peek..."

"Yee... You little prankster!"

They laughed loudly together.

"You are bobo gih. Do not sleep malem-malem.." continued Alif at the end there.

"Hmm. yeah... You too, don't be bobo malem-malem..."

"Yes Dear... Yaudah ya honey, bye. Miss you..."

"Miss you tooo... Honey,"

They also disconnected the phone.
