Oh My Love's

Exams

For a week, I continued to focus on learning all the materials and making the best use of the school grid. Memorizing, understanding and practice. Sounds like I'm so pious, but I'm not.

In the apartment, I languished in the room continuously, except for time to eat together. Focused on learning, and sometimes chatting with Tristan over the phone because she kept calling me.

Sasha was forced to try to become supernatural, such as eliminating all sounds from her or away from me with a distance of at least one meter. Because of the problems at school, we have become more cautious than ever.

In short, try out starts as well, and makes me even more passionate about learning. For some reason, at these times, every day feels so slow. Perhaps, this is what is meant by the words of the wise man that time is relative.

A week goes like a month, then continues with the final exam of the semester.

Although this article of questions is fairly easy to answer, I did not expect more about the values I got. Because, high expectations will definitely end up painful.

Don't assume that I'm a pretty smart student. On the side of me who had been thrown into an academic competition, it was just a formality of forcing the school to at least issue some students to be displayed to the public of the education world. Listen, this country school feels rivaled by international schools that are not far away. In fact, it is clear from the title held by each that the international will remain superior.

After the period of brain blistering, all levels in parallel or special glass will be displayed through the wall mading. So, the one who obtained the high rank would be proud to have exhibited, while the low rank would feel as if it was humiliated. Last year, someone tore up the ranking list and threw it into the trash.

I went with Hana to the wall after school together.

"XI_B class rating IPA"

Sasha Adriansyah || 01

Tristan Alexander || 02

Lilian Ashley || 03

Hana sakura || 04

Riliana Caleste || 05

Not bad, my ranking too. Since we are still in the top five, there is nothing to worry about. Meanwhile, I never saw Tristan study at all, but he was able to rank second. On the other hand, I looked towards Hana who looked disappointed due to her declining position.

"Hey, we've tried our best. Don't be sad." My hand patted his shoulder to comfort him. Hana smiled and I continued, "Let's smile. Soon there will be a festival before we have a long holiday."

"really. We have to be happy fun, Lia. Forget about the rankings. I wish we were supposed to travel like any other school after the exam." Hana put on a forced smile and tried hard with the results of that rank. "Ah yes, that's it. Looks like I'll have to keep my rank a secret on the old man so that I can have an excursion of my own."

It's true what he said. Our school rarely conducts tourism. The headmaster is too stingy to spend money on his students.

"Well, I didn't expect to be below the level of that flat face" said Tristan who suddenly appeared behind me and made me almost scream in shock.

Both of his hands were coiled around my stomach and he placed his chin on my shoulder as he continued to lament the rank announcement.

"But I gave up on the exam so that Lia would be at my top" he continued in a grim voice.

I immediately pinched her cheek in annoyance. "You mean, you've deliberately answered wrong to some question for my sake?"

Tristan pretended to whimper in pain in excess. "of course. I want a pretty girl like you to be superior. I've been pretty good at visuals, no brains, Lia."

Hana's head shook his head slowly and looked at Tristan lethargicly. "There's just your behavior."

"Why? You're jealous, aren't you, Dora?" ask Tristan with pratile.

"Don't call me Dora!"

Sasha was also present to take a look at the ranking on mading. After that, he glanced at me. No, he glanced at Tristan cynically and I could feel that Tristan was gritting his teeth.

"Sasha, my rank's down!" Hana complained sadly and hugged Sasha suddenly.

"Patience" Sasha replied to Hana without changing her view of Tristan. "Hey, such an act of yours would be considered a violation of Adab in this school. Don't equate your country with here."

After being reprimanded like that, Tristan actually tightened his embrace on me.

"Necessary glass? You'd better reprimand the girl in front of you" Tristan said no less.

Spontaneously, I removed his hand from my stomach and tried to keep a little distance. At the same time, Sasha stroked Hana's shoulder to code her release from the embrace. Events like this are completely out of control. I don't like their fights.

From the back end of Sasha, there was Kak Kaivan with a beaming face that was stepping closer to me. Because I was happy with the presence of Kaivan, and I walked to see him.

"Sister Kaivan!" I greet with cheer. "My rank settled in the top ten. Great, right?"

His hand also caressed my crown. "Great. My little brother is so smart."

I feel so proud to be praised like that and hope time stops for something like this I continue to feel.

"Do you want to buy me a gift as a sign of your success?"

My face began to turn red as Kaivan looked down for a moment to align our faces in the gaze.

"Hey, hey what's going on?" Suddenly, Tristan embraced me and put on a confused face. "Lia, don't you have an appointment to travel with me?"

My head tilted and replied, "When?"

"Since now" he replied. "Come, let me buy you a bountiful gift."

I don't want to miss a rare moment with Kaivan. Tristan can be with me every day, but not with Kaivan. Therefore, I shook my head slowly at the sign of refusing.

"Sister Kaivan rarely has time for me, Tantan. I have to appreciate his good intentions," I said and patted Tristan softly on the cheek. "And I should have given you the reward for successfully rising second in just a short time as a new kid in school. All right, we'll go next time, Tantan."

"All right, all right."

He resigned after I put on a face of compassion to reject his invitation. Aka but, I was surprised after Tristan peeked at my cheek at a glance, then stepped away without saying goodbye.

"Did he always act so rudely?" asked Kaivan, who made me smile. "I could've punished him for not being civilized to girls."

Both my hands reflect a small waving. "Don't he's loved it since he was a kid. Forgive him, Brother."

"Yes, if it was Lia who said that. Then, I won't do anything."

Kaivan's sister nodded her head to signal us to walk away. After I turned around, Sasha was still standing in the same spot without Hana. His eyes kept looking at me, as if to say something. Ah yes, where did Hana go?

Hold still. I forgot about Kaivan's sister. This is a ranking day and of course Kak Karin is certainly present at school.

"Nr ...." I pulled the tip of Kaivan's uniform until we stopped walking in unison in front of the gate. "It seems, I don't need to accept a gift from Kaivan's sister."

At once Kaivan's sister held my cheek and asked, "What's wrong? Did I make a mistake?"

My head shook and removed Brother Kaivan's hand from my face. "It looks like Karin's sister will be jealous if we go together like this again."

Silence moment. Kaivan's brother covered his mouth with one hand while looking up at the sky.

"I broke up with Karin, Lia."

Stunned, opened his eyes many times, tried to think clearly and began to turn his face away from Kaivan. Guilt seemed to flow in my veins and began to rustle.

The matching couple who always made my heart cloudy, is now separated. Instead of being happy, I get sad about two things. First, maybe Kak Karin is jealous of me because her lover is often with me until guilt envelops me. Second, I am sad if Kaivan is heartbroken until his face displays a bitter smile.

"What because of me?" I asked by lowering my head. "Surely Kak Karin felt very dislike if I was close to Kak ..."

"Not that, Lia," said Kaivan. "So yesterday was so possessive. Too much restraining this and that, makes me dislike in the relationship with him."

I nodded at the sign of understanding. It is good to be trapped in a relationship that has been contaminated with something to cause discomfort. Yeah, actually I'm talking about myself.

"Have it, forget it," he said, turning a cheerful face. "I'll buy you a present, and I'll buy you a little kit for tomorrow."

"What is there for tomorrow?"

"Tomorrow the school festival, Lia."
