Paper Layangan

Ignored

Eyebrows woke up from his sleep very early, he did all his homework in a short time. Now he is sitting at the dinner table to wait for his brother to have breakfast together.

"Alis, why don't you go home to dad's?" asked Riyan who had positioned her seat in front of Alis.

Eyebrows stared at Riyan with a thin smile, let the matter be kept to itself. He did not want to make Riyan sad because of him. "Only miss the house" said Alis while scooping her mouth food.

"really?" riyan asked in disbelief at the words of the Eyebrow just now. "Are you in trouble?" riyan asked while stopping her chewing. He took a glass of water and sipped it to stir the food in his mouth.

"Truth sister, I'm fine." said Alis while nodding her head. He smiled sweetly to reassure Riyan of his good condition.

"Good." said Ryan later. Every now and then Riyan glanced at Alis who seemed to be focused on her food. They eat in silence, only the sound of a clinking spoon clashing with the plate until they finish eating. Riyan again helped his sister who cleaned their cutlery.

"Lis, tonight we have dinner with Subhan and his family" said Riyan as they sat in the living room seat.

His eyebrows stopped his movement that was tying his shoelaces. He felt familiar with the name, Alis trying to remember. He looked at Riyan and nodded his head. He knew very well that tonight's event was a matchmaking event even though Riyan did not tell him in detail.

Along the way, Alis just stay still and stay focused with the book she used to read. He ignored everything they went through. Riyan silently glanced towards Eyebrow. He knew that Eyebrow was having problems, but he did not want to interfere too far, as long as the person did not treat Eyebrows badly, then Riyan would not act. Riyan knows the feelings of young people today if they are in love, will definitely be overwritten by many trials. Sometimes they even behave outside the bounds of reason, sometimes even like crazy.

Every now and then Alis checks his phone to check his work schedule at the office that has been sent by January via message. The schedule is not too tight.

"Lis, don't forget about tonight." remind Riyan of Eyebrows before they get out of the car after they get to school. Eyebrows glanced at Riyan and again nodded his head. He acted as normal and looked calm, but in his heart he felt very depressed.

Eyebrows are again the center of attention because they are delivered by a different car than usual. Riyan deliberately used another car to go to the office, because the car he used to wear was left behind at his father's house.

Regardless of the situation that seemed boisterous, Alis stepped casually while reading the book in her hands. It passed even though it received a blatant sneer. It was as if all of that had never happened, and as if he felt like he was in a quiet place.

"Hey! girls are shameless. Every day changing guys. The name of our school becomes tau tau tau." said Jessica who sauntered casually towards Eyebrow and pushed Alis' shoulder hard. But his eyebrows did not budge, he stared at Jessica for a moment and looked back at the book in his hand. He really came back as before, quiet and indifferent.

"How about Lis, have you been happy with your despicable life? In fact, even in your poverty you remain unchanged, belagu!" alifa asked with a cynical smile. He was staring at a very different Eyebrow today, looking more indifferent than usual.

By remaining indifferent Alis continued his steps that had been delayed. "Alis, wait for the next game" said Alifa with hissing. Eyebrows looked at Alifa with a sharp look, this time he did not like them to interfere too much with his privacy. Unintentionally, his eyes stared at Al who was walking towards him. His sight became sad. But something she did not expect to happen, Al passed by without looking at her. Eyebrows squeezed his chest that felt pain and tightness. Somehow his feelings this time were so hurt that Al ignored him. Really, this is not what he wants. This reality was not expected. And he hoped that all this was just a dream, and when he woke up, everything would come back as good as yesterday.

"God! what you see. Don't be pretentious and expect all men to like you." said Jessica, who stared at the sight of Alis. He again pushed the shoulder of the Eyebrows tightly so that the Eyebrows fell because there was no preparation at all before.

Some of the students who passed by seemed indifferent to all that, even many of them laughed at him, as if all of that was a joke to them. Instantly he felt that his presence was unwanted and he was greatly hated by everyone. He feels so lonely. He lifted his body slowly and walked towards his class with cheers of hatred from all students in the school hall.

"Alis, why aren't you so-so?" asked Liza as she approached Alis who was sitting on her lap. Eyebrows stared at Liza for a moment and she nodded weakly. He bowed his head to the table in front of him, trying to close his eyes to ward off the pain. The shadow of Al who ignored him again flashed across his eyes. He was so sad because of all that. He felt accused and without basis.

Eyebrows raised his head as he was humiliated. He was surprised by the presence of Alifa who stood in front of him. Who deliberately entered his class and approached his desk. His gaze turned towards the classroom, his classmates seemed to whisper a sneer at him. Eyebrows stood up and walked out of the classroom without caring about Liza's defense of her.

Eyebrow's move took him up the school's kerooftop, he wanted to calm his chaotic mind for a moment. He didn't care if he missed his first lesson.

"Al.." muttered Alis as he looked at the back of someone standing right in front of him. He knows that back and that posture. He wanted to get closer but he hesitated, finally Alis turned around to avoid Al who seemed to hate him so much.

Al who heard his name called immediately turned his body, he stared at the back of Alis who disappeared behind the rooftop door. He clasped his fingers firmly to dispel his feelings that returned to pain. Al keeps his hand in his pants pocket. And closed his eyes for a moment as he stepped towards the exit of the rooftop.

Al looks very different today, he looks very cold and indifferent to anything. He looked even colder than Aldo or Angga, there was no smile or greeting. It was as if he lived in his own world.

He walked towards the back garden of the school to calm his mind which seemed more chaotic after seeing the presence of Eyebrows in therooftop. He also tried to avoid the Eyebrows this morning, but his heart hurt more when he saw the Eyebrows that fell and laughed at by the students. But he tried to shake all of that. He believes that Alis is only pretending to seek sympathy from others.

Al sat himself on a garden chair under a catapult tree. He remembered back when he was with Alis here. When Alis casually closed his eyes and when they together spent the provisions that Alis brought.

Al directed his eyes at the catapult tree, he accidentally saw an outstretched leg, like someone who was sitting on the ground and leaning on the tree trunk. Al glanced at the girl, he looked suspicious. Maybe the girl is fainting or something else is going on.

He stared around the garden, only silence was obtained. There was no one he could get but the two of them.

Al slowly approached and saw the girl's face, but failed. The girl fell asleep or fainted with her hair covering her face. Al slowly stretched out his hand and grabbed the girl's hair.

Deg.

Al was very surprised by the presence of Eyebrows in front of his eyes. Silently he stared at the face of Eyebrow that looked not good. Even that face depicted deep sadness. I want it to feel like Al hugging and holding his Eyebrows, to give her a sense of comfort. He really could not bear to see the condition of Eyebrows like this. However, he also realizes that his love will be in vain.

"Alis.." muttered Al while stroking his cheeks and turning his hair Eyebrows. Eyebrows moved his hands, rushing Al to hide behind the tree behind his Eyebrows.

While the Eyebrows opened their eyes slowly. "Al..., is that you?" said Eyebrow with a soft look around the park, but nil. He was just alone. He was back daydreaming, he had just dreamed about Aldebran being very close to him and it felt very real.

Eyebrows bend his legs and hide his head on the sidelines of his knees. He sighed, he was just starting to like someone, but it was painful. "What do I have to do, so you can forgive me?" muttered Eyebrows while standing and running away from the park to go towards the library.

Al who heard all that was just silent.He looked at the girl who looked very fragile in front of him. The one who walked slowly left him. Al sighed and felt his chest hurt. Really, this feeling is very painful. Let him learn to remove the growing taste in his heart.
