Reminiscents

MENACE

After coming from Kosan Hana and meeting with Kak Ria, Asran rushed to the field for his match that afternoon. He seemed to no longer care that it would be too late which was clear that his mind was currently adrift to Hana, a woman who was 7 years older than him.

Asran drives his bike pretty fast. His phone rang earlier but he didn't pick up, he was sure it must have been Reynald who called. Reynald must have asked about his whereabouts, because he said he would follow and arrive on time.

A few moments later Asran arrived at the volleyball field. He walked quickly to the middle of the field, and it was true that the game had already begun and for a while his position as a convenience store was replaced by a reserve player.

“HA's.. That's Asran..” Said one of his friends sitting in the reserve seat as well.

“Sorry Telat, there was a problem with my motor..” Asran said by making up a story.

“Ya already, after the break..you enter..” Said Samuel, his Senior and manager Tim Bayangkara.

During the break, Reynald approached Asran.

“Where are you Asran? I called unappointed..” attacked Reynald rather upset.

“Our opponent is now quite heavy than yesterday. How can you possibly compete well without a warm-up?” Said Aldi who was also disappointed by Asran's delay. Though Asran who Aldi knew before was a disciplined child and even though it was never too late for training especially when competing.

“Sorry Bang, my motor was in trouble earlier.” Said Asran who was still lying. Aldi did not respond to Asran's reasoning, while Reynald seemed to be narrowing his eyes looking at Asran suspiciously. Reynald, who was a close friend of Asran's since he first passed the police, believes there must be something hidden by Asran.

A few moments later, a long whistle sounded a sign that the break time was over. And those two teams went back into the field. Asran tries to focus on competing, he hopes his mind and guilt towards Hana can be lost for a moment, he does not want his appearance will be chaotic because of it all. But hope is hope. Which turned out he could not control his focus.

“Asran.. Take..ball is a ball..” Shout one of his tall and white-skinned seniors. He passed the ball to Asran, but he instead found Asran who was pensive and finally the ball did not succeed in taking Asran well. There was a sense of disappointment drawn from his senior's face.

“Sorry.. sorry..” Said Asran felt guilty instantly spying sorry.

But, it was not once or twice that he made the same mistake. Already a lot of Asran messed up the game that made their score far behind. Asran game is not as usual, which is usually agile and aggressive but now like powerless.

The placement of the ball also looks careless, which is easily guessed by the opposing team. Until finally, Samuel took the initiative to replace Asran with a backup player earlier. With a shaky step and resigned finally Asran out of the field and sat next to Samuel.

Hana arrived at her house just as adzan maghrib reverberated. The show ended at 4pm this afternoon, however, because Hana was so excited to chat with Tia and some parents of her friend Syafa so that they were lazy and unaware of the time that was getting late in the afternoon. Eventually they broke up and went home.

A moment later Hanapun turned on his phone and…. Ting. ting. ting.. successively WA message and several missed calls went into his HP. There are dozens of WA and incoming calls that come from one name.

Hannah took a deep breath. Is it good that he just told the guy what exactly happened?

‘Kak Hana... Kak.. please answer WA or answer Asran phone once brother..’.

‘Kak Hana, what's wrong with sister? Asran wrong what?’

'Say sis, don't make Asran fret like this..’.

‘Kak... ASran home yes..’.

And there are many more WAs from Asran coming in. Actually there was a terbesit sense of heartlessness Hana to Asran, but soon Hana tepis.

‘Remember Hana, she's just a fad with you.. she's just looking for sensation aja... challenges and whatever else her name, which is clear she's not sincere Hana...’ Hana trying to convince herself, he cannot be weak.

A few minutes later, a call came in. Asran who called him, it turns out that the gentle-faced man has not given up on contacting Hana. Hana again did not pick up the phone.

‘Kak, Asran already knows what causes sister to be like this. This is all because of the voice recording of Asran in Ria right??’

‘That's not what you think brother.. If I may be given permission to explain everything directly with brother, I beg you. pick up the phone Asran.biar ASran explain everything.’

Hana read the sentence carefully. It turns out Asran already knows the cause of Hana being like this, but know where she is? Hana asked curiously in her heart.

‘Kalo sister does not also want to hear Asran's explanation, do not get it wrong Asran tomorrow morning.. ASran will come to kosan brother or. nyulus brother to Puskesmas..’.

Hana read all the way through WA Asran that entered. Until his last threatening words make Hana feel so worried...is she really going to be that close? Is that just his shit?

Seriate..
