At rest, I refused to go. My mission is only one, which is to ask for an explanation in the language material on Hana.
"Come, Lia. We went to the cafeteria together," asked Tristan who was standing next to my stool, then crouched down until our faces looked at each other. "What's wrong? You're not hungry?"
My hand reflexively pinched Tristan's cheek which began to put on the face of a rabbit child was squeezing. "No. I just want to go to the library to study."
Tristan who resigned with his cheek can only try to answer in a stammer, "Come. Bela-jar .. can be done later .. and more-bih well we to kan .. tin first."
"The cafeteria must be crowded with your fans, Tantan," I replied with a small laugh. "I'll definitely be desperate."
"Then because it's ..." Tristan stood up again until my hand slipped from his face. One hand stood on my desk propping up his body, and another held my chin and said, "Be my lover soon. Then those crazy fans will be reluctant to approach me and not push you around when you're around me."
My face could only react flatly as a result of being given a crisp temptation by him.
"Don't say anything no, Tantan," I said as I brushed his hand off my chin. "All right, we're going to the cafeteria. Then, go to the library."
Hana turned her body and said, "You won't take me?"
"I've been intending to take you, Hana." My eyes glanced at Tristan. "You also have to study for try out and the final exam of the semester, Tantan. Come on, let's go now so that time doesn't get cut."
Hana and I got up at once, then Tristan immediately grabbed me and my hand brushed it off.
"I went straight to the library to book the bench for the three of us before it was filled with other children" said Hana who got approval with a nod from me and Tristan. "I'll go first."
The two of us continued to leave and arrived at the outer area of the school building. Before stepping towards the canteen, there was a commotion from the front gate where the presence of a girl appeared. His feet were covered with bandages and he had to walk with a walker. Around her were children asking for her further condition, and it seemed like I was starting to feel familiar with her face.
"I don't know if he's back this fast" Tristan said with a mangosteen head. "Maybe, I want to take care of my resignation from school."
I haven't had time to pry his words, the girl who had leg pain was standing in line with us. His eyes looked towards Tristan, as if it had an eternal enmity. In a split second, it reminded me that he was one of Sasha's fans. Yeah, I just realized that he's the one who's been dousing me with his friends.
"What's wrong?" tristan asked with a big grin towards the girl who started clucking in annoyance and left without leaving a word. "Should have, one more leg followed broken so as not to be rude like that."
"What do you mean?" I asked the question because I didn't understand Tristan's words.
I feel, they both have a certain relationship or problem with each other until looked at with a different reaction.
"No one, Lia. Let's go on to the cafeteria." Tristan denied it while embracing me again to walk to the cafeteria.
"Are you serious? Looks like you guys are each other ..."
"Hey," He looked at me with a smile, but his lips kept smiling. "Lia .... If I say no, it means no. Yes, it means yes. You can trust me, right?"
Why did the air between us become gripping like this? The aura given from Tristan seemed to scare me almost. In the end I could only nod small in response.
"Goodoo. Come on, keep walking."
When we got to the cafeteria, the male fans next to me immediately. His attitude was so welcoming to these girls by receiving various gifts, punching all questions and cheerful laughter.
Since Tristan was sensitive to my uneasiness, he slipped the money in my hand and whispered, "I was also thinking of leaving them without ruining my good image, Lia. Go first and shop with this money. Let's just say I practiced you with Hana."
After hearing that, I burst out from this sea of hysterical girls, then went to the canteen master with relief. In the library it is definitely not allowed to carry heavy food. Therefore, I only buy a few small meals that otherwise make no sound when chewed, and mineral water. After that, I handed over the money in hand and only realized that the sheet was red.
Although the edges will be difficult in receiving fractions of money, I feel no problem and go straight to the library.
Enter me in a library that is not too big and so quiet even though its inhabitants can be categorized as many. My eyes looked in all directions, but found no where Hana was. However, I saw a violet ribbed pencil box on one of the benches where it belonged to Hana.
Immediately, I sat on the bench located near the window, then placed the groceries from the canteen under the table. At the same time, there was a whisper of Hana who was quite close to me. My body tried to turn backwards, and I couldn't believe what it looked like.
Hana was talking cheerfully and in low intonation to a man who was leaning on one of the bookshelves, she was Sasha. For a while, Hana was aware of my appearance and she immediately pulled Sasha's hand to go to the study bench.
"Hey, Lia," called Hana who was sitting opposite me with Sasha.
The man turned his eyes away, as if refusing to look at me. While Hana was so enthusiastic in talking to me.
"I did it" he continued, which made me understand that he managed to express his feelings for Sasha.
So, are they now lovers? Will the title of actor be imprinted on Hana, then the affair is the right meaning for Sasha? I don't think all those questions will be answered with the word 'yes' because I don't feel aggrieved.
"Congratulations," I said, which made Hana cheerful, while Sasha frowned. "Then you have fun together. I'll learn the language alone."
"Wait," Sasha interrupted as I was about to get up from the chair. "Just learn, there's no need to be distracted."
It seems, she understood and remembered what I said last night that my point in going to the library was to ask Hana for a material explanation. If I teach alone, then my goal is not fulfilled.
"Alright then," I replied and immediately looked back at Hana. "Hana, can you give me an explanation of this matter?"
His head nodded and immediately took out a pen. "Okay, let me explain."
Sasha and I listened at length to Hana's explanation. The method he used in describing was not much different from Sasha last night. Sasha would occasionally glance at me, like coding to say 'do you understand?' and I just shook slowly.
"I became sleepy because of your explanation." A yawning sound rang out that I just realized that Tristan was right next to me. "Hey, if you become a teacher and how to explain you so, then all the students who are in the classroom will fall asleep until having a bad dream. I'm sure Lia doesn't really understand."
The three of us looked at Tristan who was supporting her face with one hand after giving a line of ridicule to Hana. Not until there, he changed into a teacher of language material interpreters briefly and densely with the help of figures of grouping tables.
"Lia, you can observe your own language by just reading," Tristan said by folding his hands on the table and putting his head on it. "So read at least one novel. Then your linguistic knowledge will increase and some of the material you have memorized will automatically become practical material when you read."
This is what I need! Rather than hearing an explanation, it was better to go straight to practice.
"Will I buy a novel?" His lips displayed a smile in offering a gift.
"No need." Sasha interrupted. "Library does not only contain textbooks. Look for novels on a special shelf of fiction books."
Tristan clucked a little after hearing those words. I guess, he's a little bit dislikeful of people who like to show a flat face like Sasha. Their nature is so opposite, like water and fire.
