One Hundred Eighty Degrees

Meet Papa

Event after event they've been through. Finally the event closed with a prayer reading together in the heart according to their respective beliefs. After completion, the participants scattered on the campus courtyard.  Most of them are still busy taking pictures with their seniors and friends. The moment was used as an opportunity by the participants who idolized the Word. They are all scrambling to get a queue to take pictures together with the Word.

The Word who felt that their numbers were very much felt bad to reject the invitation.  But if all served, then he will certainly be very tired and run out of time. While in about half an hour he had promised Irawan his papa Arin.

He was forced to apologize to all the participants who were waiting for their turn to take pictures with him. Most of them seem disappointed, but others choose understanding.  Firman can still be found every day on the campus. Because he is not a Korean or foreign artist that is difficult to reach his existence.

Firman decided to find Arin first before he went to the parking lot to pick up his bike.  It is not too difficult to find Arin who happens to still not disband from the ranks of his group. Seen from a distance he was busy taking pictures with some friends in his group.

Firman approached the crowd who were engrossed in his selfies and expressed his desire.

“Excuse me!  Can I borrow Arinnya for a moment?” ask the Word in a very polite tone. He realized that if he went straight to the point on Arin, worried about provoking his emotions back.  There he had to be boasted in front of the juniors who mostly admired him.  Of course he has to keep his authority and also his good name. Don't let Arin act rude again towards him.  As happened yesterday afternoon when he defended Arin from Joni.

Hearing the Word say that, of course most of them were shocked and also stunned.  It is very unlikely to feel if a senior Word whom they greatly admire and also famous indifference greet them first.  Though these words are not really a greeting. But a request that aims to call Arin from a fairly large crowd.

Arin who realized it immediately broke away from the crowd and immediately headed towards the Word.

“What's up?  A Senior Idol, should busy yourself looking for me?” ask Arin a little Formal.  Act as if he does not know the person in front of him right now. He even acted as if he was surprised by the attitude of the Word. It was a very common thing for Arin. Unlike most of the juniors there, they were jealous half-dead of Arin who was clearly being sought by people who were arguably the most in-demand by most of the OSCAR participants.

Some eyes even looked a little cynical.  They do not accept his idol must busy themselves looking for Arin.  Even Firman with his cool words wanted to borrow Arin from his friends. That action is enough to make them more and more half-dead on the Word.

“Om Irawan is currently again there is an area around here Rin!  He asked me to take you there.” Answer the Word trying to explain the purpose of looking for Arin.

“What?? Papa is here?” arin said surprised by the answer of the Word just now.  He covered his mouth and could not believe what the Word said.  “This is real, right?  Not prank ? Is papa really here?  Trus, why can't papa tell me the same?” asked Arin astonished at the decision of his father who came suddenly to visit him without telling him first. 

“Loh, indeed om did not tell you first?” tanya Firman who was no less surprised by Arin's response just now. Because he did not think that Arin did not know about the intention of his father today to come visit him and the Word. He thought Arin had been on the phone before or at least he knew that his papa had come for business today.

“No mas!  I don't know.  Papa no call me!” arin was a little upset. His tone had already started to rise and sounded a little angry. 

“I don't have time to explain this, you are just the same Om!  For sure right now you have to come with me first!” word explained to Arin.

All eyes were on the conversation between the two of them.  Vivi and Nabila were not surprised by what was happening before her eyes.  Because they already knew that Arin was quite familiar with the Word.  Senior idol they both.  Unlike the other participants who at that time many were surprised by the attitude of the Word on Arin who seemed familiar.

Arin is now the center of attention. He hurriedly stepped away from the crowd of his group.  Word immediately followed him from behind while smiling wrongfully at the crowd that Arin had left behind.

“Emang papa again where?”

“You won't know the place. Let us take you?” ask the Word and offer yourself.

“Do not want! Tell me where it is! I can do it myself kok.” Said Arin in his jutek tone.

“You won't know the deck! Udah deh buruan join mas ride motor!”

“What? Riding bikes? In bonceng means?” ask Arin astonished.

“Lah, yes! What do you want? I don't have a car.”

“Do not want! I'm taking a cab!”

“You don't know the place. If you don't want to come. I'm leaving, aren't I? Don't blame me if you can't see me!” word bluffs smooth.

“Huh, yes. Where's the motor?” arin asked, getting annoyed.

“However I'll take it first in the parking lot. Wait here, yeah! Don't go anywhere!” say the Word while running excitedly. He did not think it was that easy to take Arin on his bike. At first he thought there would be a lot of drama first so that Arin would be joined by him.

For the first time, after so long.  Firman hugs Arin on the back of his bike. There was a strange feeling suddenly swirling in his heart.  He could not be sure what that feeling was.  But secretly he began to flower.

Unlike Arin, he is as far away from the reach of the Word as possible. So that created a space far enough between them. Even enough if occupied by one adult among them. Although the speed of the motor that Firman climbed is not too fast, but enough to make Arin slightly upended if suddenly there is something that makes him forced to step on the brake suddenly. This forced Arin to hold quite firmly on the rear seat of the bike.
