Replacement Lantern

Chapters 10. Replacement Lantern

By the poolside, the lanterns were still sitting still with wandering minds. His gaze was occasionally fixed on the guy sitting by the window. Half an hour had passed, and the man was still alone there. In fact, the break will soon be finished.

"Woy, why are you daydreaming here? Reog tau kesambet lo!"

The lanterns jumped from its place. Almost fell into the pool, if only Bagas did not hold back by holding his hand. Not what! He is wearing a full uniform, not a swimsuit. There was also no way he would have to play water, while the hours of lessons would soon begin. He also only brought one uniform.

"Well, right! What did I say?" Bagas put on a songong face, feeling like a spiderman for saving the lantern. He and Haris were the culprits themselves.

Lengkara put on an annoyed face, then brushed off Bagas' hand. "If you don't get in there, I won't fall!"

"Who told you to go out alone? Don't tell me you're thinking of me again?" Haris was grinning the horse, acting as handsome as ever. "But sorry, you're not my type!"

Lanterns rolled his eyeballs, lazy. "Who wants to be with you?"

Actually, Haris isn't so ugly. His son is humorous though a little stingy— said some of the children who blatantly sneered at him. Even so, there were at least two girls who had expressed love for him, and all of them he looked up to. Lengkara watched directly after the briefing with Mr. Rudy earlier.

Haris was bearded, then smiled widely. "It's good that, because my love only makes Jasmine one."

It was Jasmine whom Haris liked. Beautiful girl from IPA 3 class, still one class with lanterns. Jasmine is also a member of the swimming class. The lantern passed him in class. His attitude is a little jutek. Even so, he entered one of the famous girls at school. Vibes big sister dream.

"Yes have been rejected many times still chasing lo, head melinjo!" Bagas menoyor Haris head because so anxious. The fool has reached the chronic stage, so being rejected many times will not make him give up. "The lanterns are also beautiful, eleven twelve are the same Eunchae Le Sserafim. Yes even though the body is more plump, but it could be a recommendation."

Bagas chuckled, without realizing a hand was drifting rapidly towards him. The next second, a loud sound echoed as the hand landed squarely on the head. Not only Bagas, Haris also fared the same fate, because he followed up laughing at lanterns.

"Anjrit has very bad hands!" At once Haris rubbed his head that felt sore.

"Eat the plump! It's curvaceous again, nih!" Once again, Lanterns hit the shoulders of the two men firmly.

"Stop stopping! Sick ege!" Bagas quickly caught the lantern's hand. "Lo's hands, my gosh!"

"Just this time there's a girl who dares to hit me, Anjir!" Haris still grimaced holding onto his shoulder. "Where hurts again! What hand is iron?"

"You guys are the clementers! Just got hit by a grimace! The body is big, but soft, like a presto banding!" lantern Eject.

"Eh mouth!" Haris was in shock, not expecting Lantern to also be able to say spicy.

"Fixed slay bestie!" Bagas gently patted Haris' shoulder, shaking his hand like a soft bone man in general.

"Funny you're so lo!" snapped Haris. Bagas' freak behavior made him want to vomit instantly.

"Yes, that's angry!"

"Sobbly me, nyet!"

"Eh btw lo white hands too yeah, smooth again!" Unwittingly, Bagas still clasped the lantern's hand, then compared it to Haris' slightly brown hand. "When you say from the village!"

"What's the connection, anjrit?" Haris pulled his hand quickly. Shame also times compare the color of the skin slightly brown with the skin of the lantern is white clean. Despite that, Haris remains famous for her sweet face. The sweet black from class XII IPA 3.

"Says many villagers are items, continue to dek—"

"STOP!" The lantern raised its hand in front of Bagas, before this misperception widened everywhere. "Neither mind, not everyone in the village is as black and dirty as you say it is!" His tone sounded angry.

"Denger tuh belek orca!" Haris nodded inexhaustibly. It could be that Bagas had such foolish thoughts. While Bagas scratched his non-itchy head, a little felt guilty because his words were already outrageous.

"Hour rest is done, are you still here? Are you not a laper?"

Haris knows that Lantern has not been to the cafeteria since the break began. Actually Haris doesn't really care. All this time, he was quite indifferent to what others were doing. It was just a coincidence that he knew, because he had previously been ordered by the teacher to bring a pile of books to the library with Lantern.

"Males, no longer want to eat."

It would be a lie if Lanterns said they were not hungry, but they could not buy food either. His savings are getting thinner and thinner, he must be clever in managing expenses. Yesterday he had started working part time at the department store, but still had to wait a week to get the results.

"Lo know, Har? The males are the ones who eat males! Worrying if he is lazy, let alone doing other work? Eating for your own stomach!" Bagas bobble-head, still engraved question marks on his head. How can there be a lazy person in terms of eating, while eating their own basic needs of living things. "That's the reason, isn't it, lo?"

"Why the hell, have you seen Boy? Lo like?"

Ah shit! Also found in the end. Apparently since then, Haris noticed the direction of view of the lantern. Indeed, since then Lantern secretly stole a glance towards Boy who was still sitting by the window alone.

"Are you also going to think I like Jasmine if I see her all the time?" His tone rose slightly, being annoyed by Haris' stupid question.

"Not really?" Haris is a fool. "Lo's part of seeing Boy continues!"

The lanterns slowly shook. "I'm just wondering why he likes to be alone. Wear earphones while crashing that window deck."

The direction of view Haris and Bagas are now fixed on Boy who still survives in his place. His head was bearded with a smile full of mystery. Quite excited after finding the topic of conversation, for gossip material that has become his routine. "Because you're in school here, so you should know a little."

"Lo know Elvan, IPA 2 boy?" 

Suddenly Haris nudged Bagas' elbow, with a gesturing gaze. While Bagas just nodded convincingly. All that did not escape the attention of the lantern.

"Here is his name, but not sure! A lot of girls are talking about that name from yesterday!" replied the lantern hesitated. Since yesterday he has not seen what Elvan is talking about in class. Not infrequently, he also heard boys talking about the name.

"There is only one owner of the name Elvan in this school, his name is quite popular. How no? He's most wanted in this school." Mangosteen lanterns, while listening to the story of Bagas that just started. "We were the four members of the department. But because of some problem, our friendship is ruined! From then on, Boy's attitude changed. So quiet and aloof guy."

"Why can?" For some reason, Lanterns became interested in their friendship stories. It is also not important to know it.

"Nobody knows the real problem, Haris and I don't know exactly why. Finally rumors circulated that it was all because of Vanessa," explained Bagas. Although a little doubt about the problem that actually happened. "Especially the same Boy Elvan does not want to caliphate!"

"Clarification!" ralat Haris's.

"Classification."

"KLA-RI-FI-KA-SI!"

"That's what it is!" Lazy bagas arguing.

"Well, if you have a mouth never sorted! Typonya's not just typing!" jeered Haris, a little annoyed.

"Dissapper!"

"What happened to Vanessa?" Lanterns are still curious, again the problem is because of women. In old school, he also used to be the subject of two guys who he said both liked him. Instead of being arrogant, in old school lanterns are quite popular because of their beauty.

"Eleventh grade Elvan liked Vanessa, but reportedly Vanessa even likes Boy. Do you understand how it ends?"

Bagas continues the story. All the kids at school think Elvan and Boy are fighting over a love triangle. But according to Bagas and Haris who are very close to the two, it seems not only because they are fighting. Moreover, the split occurred after they were twelfth class. Exactly after the news circulated that Vanessa already has a lover outside the school.

"So they're still fighting, even though Vanessa has a boyfriend?"

"How do you know Vanessa has a boyfriend?" ask Haris in wonder.

"I happen to have kids talking to Vanessa." A lie! Actually Lantern knows because it has met the man who claimed to be Vanessa's boyfriend. Yesterday he accidentally heard while in the hospital, the man himself said it. Too bad he forgot his name.

"That's why Boy got mad at you yesterday, thinking that Elo was Vanessa. Maybe it's because Boy likes Vanessa, too, but claps one hand." Haris raised his hand, which was immediately greeted by Bagas' palm. "Boy also never wanted to deny the confusing news. It doesn't matter" he said."

"A big sissy, just because of love until the fight!"

The lanterns were even anxious themselves hearing the story of Bagas and Haris about the story of Boy and Elvan. He became curious, how the Boy version of his own story, about the story of his friendship that was destroyed. Without saying anything more, he approached Boy who still held on to his place. Leaving Bagas and Haris who failed to prevent the Lantern and now put on a cengo face.

"You should warn him from the beginning, don't bother Boy if you're alone." Haris' tone of voice was slightly lowered, slightly worrying about Lantern's fate after boldly approaching Boy.

"Where do I know that he's going to be that strong!"
