Red Velveit

Prologues

"Karen, congratulations. Lo managed to get one more champion in the gini-rich race. I am so proud to be your best friend!" Sheina's eyes sparkled. He*** both hands of his fellow students during Junior High. Finally he was able to chat with her, after the end of this event, the host allowed the guests to meet the champions.

"Yoy dong. Kan, my pent-up talent is reading poetry," said Karen fully joking. He will not boast in front of his best friend. Especially with the fact that, the girl in front of him is not as lucky as him.

Karen's smile faded. "Sorry Shei, I did not take part in this race. I don't know the result-"

As if knowing what Karen was going to say next, Sheina immediately grabbed. "Oiya, the train turns me on, I'm going to Reta first yeah Ren." Then Sheina rushed away from there. There was a crowd of people talking to the winners.

Sheina moves away from Karen not because she hates Karen, but she doesn't want Karen to feel guilty about her own failures. Sheina kept slipping between people. Until he saw someone he knew looking at him with a smile. Very sweet.

Sheina's steps stopped. Sheina smiled as well. Did he come to encourage himself? sheina asked in her heart as she looked at the fresh rose that the man had brought.

His eyes were unceasingly looking at the red rose. Very beautiful even if only a sprig. Sheina remembered that every time they dated, the man always gave her a rose. Until Sheina's room until now was full of dried roses. Sheina suspected, do not let the man have a rose garden behind his house.

The man was still smiling as he walked slowly closer to Sheina. Sheina is so beautiful tonight. Until the sound of some people caught his attention.

"Lo know who got the last sequence in this poetry reading competition, don't you?"

"Tau, whose name is Shei... Sheina isn't she?"

"Yes, yes" the woman laughed. "The rumor is tuh cewe just read the cake poem read the newspaper tau, hahaha. That's flat."

" seriously? Pantes are champions one. I mean champion one from the bottom, hahaha."

"I'm glad I don't know. Shame very do not know the same person who digosipin all participants."

"Yes yaaa. There are also more tau who read poetry much but the end is not champion. Though it's..." The next conversation grew increasingly faint in the man's ears.

The man's smile faded for a moment. Then for some reason a second later he smiled like the beginning.

The man's smile almost made Sheina unaware that their distance was getting closer. Until the distance was two steps away, the man showed no sign of reducing his speed. And finally...

He walked. Shein.

Sheina's smile is gone.  Sheina's forehead wrinkled, confused. He stared for a while before turning around to find out what was wrong with the man.

Apparently, the man stopped in front of Karen and gave the red rose to the girl.

Sheina terseyum bitter. "Why should Karen, Zain? Do I feel ashamed?" muttered Sheina with a stark look. He then turned to look at the two women who were busy talking about him. The large voices of those women could not be hidden from Sheina's ears.

The song Happy Williams sung by a beautiful woman on stage as the closing ceremony tonight feels out of tune with what she feels now. Sheina walked with all her strength in the crowd of people in the building while holding back her tears.

"Sheina, Mommy Cariin where did it turn out in si.... loh you cry?"

The middle-aged woman's voice sounded soft in Sheina's ears. He looked up. A mother's worried look was clearly visible in her eyes. Sheina gently wiped the tears that soaked her cheeks, then stood up to align her gaze with Mother.

"Sorry Bun, Sheina can't stand crying because she lost, hehe," Sheina replied with a shy smile. He lies. He knew that was not the reason his eyes shed tears.

"Just a gini-rich Junior High level race you tangisin?" Mother looked right and left. Check if anyone saw her child crying. No, apparently everyone was busy with the results of the race announced earlier.

"Next year you're a high school kid. There are many races you can run there. There are plenty of opportunities, honey. Anyway do you think here dapet all trophies? There is also a rich you do not get anything but can still smile. Lose win the usual thing, baby."

"But Sheina scores in the last position, Bun." Mother gasps. He just knew that fact. He did not see the notice board directly. He only listened to the announcement of the champion one up to the expectation of three from the stage. "Emang, that bad Bun, Sheina read the poem?"

Mother knows that is very true. When compared to other participants, Sheina was not much experienced in the poetry reading race. But he can't be honest in front of his son right now, can he?

"Udah, don't be discouraged! Tomorrow the mother promises you will find more races for you," said mother diverts Sheina's questions. "This is Mommy bringing your favorite red Velvet cake."

Sheina stared at the clear box containing a red cake with white cream in the middle. Just looking at the cake was enough to make Sheina forget all the bitterness that came to her.

Upon seeing the cake, Sheina looked forward. "No, Bun. Sheina doesn't want to run any more races." Sheina shook her head lethargicly, answering the words of the Mother earlier. Until suddenly his eyes accidentally looked at someone who was busy talking in the middle of the crowd. "Sheina is a shame, Bun. The race can only make Sheina embarrass herself." Sheina was silent for a moment. Until then, he muttered very softly, "and was shunned by the person Sheina loved."

"Sir, this is his house?"

The heavy sound of mas-mas Ojek Online breaks Sheina's daydream. He then returned to the fact that he had arrived in front of the house.

"Oh yes, my mother." Sheina got off the bike and handed over the helmet and paid some money.

After the Ojek passed, Sheina showed no sign of opening the gate. He stays in front of the house. His round eyes felt at home looking at the front neighbor's house. He looked at Ganan's house.

He thought of something. What if Ganan was there? Will he leave her in the same shame as Zain, or will he stay with her and console her from defeat?

The voice of the Maghrib. It was late afternoon to be outside the house. Moreover, if remembered, earlier he had not asked permission to Mother to go to Rashi's house. Mother must be worried now. He must quickly go inside.

Warm regards, dear,
