Odi's Story

Four

After two days of staying at Rani's house, Odi ventured to go home. His wounds and bruises are a little better than yesterday. It's time to be honest. He didn't want to hide the suspension from Grandma any longer. Odi opened the door, stepping in carefully. There was a television in the middle room. Ah, apparently grandma is sitting watching her favorite latest celebrity gossip show.

The girl sat next to grandma, struggling spoiled. "Miss, sorry Odi, yes."

Grandma was a little surprised to see some plaster and scratches that had dried up around Odi's face. Not a single word came out from his lips, although his eyes were clearly drawn with worry. Grandma just nodded then smiled as she rubbed Odi's head.

Odi who got the response became more emotional. Her eyes were glazed over while telling all that had happened lately to grandma. On the contrary, Grandma was not angry. Again the sixty-year-old old woman only showed a curve on her wrinkled face. "Yes already. Next time you don't. Just cunt. Iha wong you're wrong, anyway?"

"Yes, anyway. But Odi did not accept that he had brought all parents."

His smile did not fade. "Being doesn't mean losing, Di. After all, if you fight like this, who loses?"

Odi was singing lips. "Yes, Odi's wrong."

Odi took the suspension letter from the school in the bag and handed it to grandma. "This, Grandma. Odi's been put out for a week."

"That means grandma has to give punishment to a bad boy like Odi."

"Sir, the punishment is not heavy, yes."

Grandma punishes Odi can't watch television for a week. For Odi no problem, there are still smart phones to find information and entertainment today.

Today the Odi suspension time is over. Odi filled the days with reading comics borrowed from Gery, playing online games on mobile and marathon watching Korean dramas. Time for Odi to start doing school activities like before. As usual Odi set out with Gery on his blue Vespa. Gery's house is next to Odi's, they've been familiar from childhood. Gery considers Odi like his own sister, because Gery is the youngest child. The age gap with her brother is quite far, ten years.

Gery saw Odi who was waiting. "Well, the tumben is ready in front."

Odi laughs. "Yes, dong. First day of school should be upbeat."

"Eat him next time you ati-ati, already hunted."

"Yes-yes, bring it." Odi immediately put himself in Gery's arms.

Twenty minutes later, they arrived at school. While in the parking lot, Odi sees Bella coming out of Rio's car. They went to school together.

Gery looked at the direction of Odi's view, "Lo why? Same with Bella?" gery's voice shocked Odi.

Odi hastily denied. "Ah, no, Bang Ger. Who's jealous, anyway."

"Why do you see Bella? Still sprain?"

"It's okay, really." Odi kept on berkilah.

Gery fishing response Odi. "Masa, anyway? I think you're with them."

Odi. "Ih, what the fuck, anyway. Okay-okay, I ngaku. I'm just curious, how does it feel to be picked up by a guy," he said.

Hearing that, Gery chuckled a little. "Huh? Every day we go and go home together. I'm a guy, you know."

"No. I mean besides Bang Ger."

Again, Gery couldn't help but laugh. Gery ruffled Odi's head while saying, "Lo's all right."

"Say you want to have a guy."

Odi's lips pursed, "Ah, Bang Gery. My bangs are broken, nih."

"The wrong one, huh?"

"It's not wrong, anyway. Does anyone want to?" Gery chuckles again.

Odi hits Gery's body. "Enak. I guess I'm not doing it."

"Well try this guy you know me here" challenged Gery.

"So much jomlo don't bother, deh."

"Sorry, here. Not arrogant. I have a girl."

"Alah, the two-dimensional waifu of two-pointed pigtails is proud. You wibu."

Without them noticing, Bella's pair of eyes watched from a distance. He captures a moment of Gery and Odi's familiarity with a hard-to-understand look.

"Ran, who's the chairman of the exkul cheers, anyway? Not Bella's sister, is it?" whispered Odi in between Geography lessons.

"No, Brother Bella does not need to participate in exckul like it is already famous. Chairman Kak Nasya, class twelve IPA four."

"Oh, if I want to go in, I guess I can't, huh?"

"Where do I know, Di. Try asking the same Mila class next door, he's a member of the exkul cheers."

"Religion. I don't know."

"Because, Di. Acquaintance, dong. How do you want to be famous if you still choose friends. Or you just met with Nasya's sister."

"Yes, I took a break to Kak Nasya's class, yes."

"Sorry, On. I can't. I want to collect PMR."

"Hm. So I'm alone, huh?"

"Yes. From now on you should be able to without me or Bang Gery. Beringantem with Kak Bella aja lo dare, when only met Kak Nasya make a list of fear exkul, anyway."

"OK, deh."

While meeting at recess, Nasya asks Odi to wait for him in the room near the basketball court, after school. In the training room the members of the Odi cheers are now. By ourselves. Because Rani of course there are still PMR activities.

Odi was amazed to see around him. The room was quite spacious, and mounted large mirrors on the sides of the walls. In the corner of the room there is a large glass display case filled with many trophies and medals. From the small cup to the nearly two meters high. Medals are also neatly lined up. From bronze, silver to gold. Indicates the many achievements of this exkul. Next to it, there were the lockers of the members. In the lockers of the dominant color of the fucia, there are the names of the owners. It seems like these are not all facilities provided by the school, Odi believes, this is self-help from members.

Nasya soon came with one of the members. Odi guessed, who came with Nasya was the candidate of the chairman of this exkul after Nasya after full.

"Yes, Di. It's Maura. I'm the same Maura wants to squirm lo dance. Try lo free style," said Nasya.

Odi nodded. Then Odi tied his long hair back. Actually, he was hesitant, because he couldn't dance at all. Even he had not prepared anything for this impromptu audition. Suddenly she remembered the 'Sweet but Psycho' dance cover video from Sinbi Gfriend.

Do not expect the movement of the Odi dance like the Sinbi movement, he even moves his body with origin and irregular. Odi's movements look stiff and not in rhythm. His leg and hand swing were not in tune with the music. Messed up. Odi knows, this is not going to work. He resigned. Because dancing is not her talent.

Nasya and Maura looked at each other. It seems like this time Maura is speaking.

"Okay, I'm the same brother Nasya has seen lo nge-dance." Maura occasionally glanced at Nasya.

Then he continued, "Gue to the point, yes. Very sorry, this. You can't join the cheers team this time."

"Lo seems to need a lot of practice again, if you are ready, you come straight here just meet me. I hope, on another occasion you can join this team. Once again very sorry, yes," he added again.

Odi replied with a forced smile. Although Odi had expected, but still his heart was sad. Imagination is only a delusion. He's Odi not Sinbi Gfriend.

Seriate...
