Scratches of Ink on my finger

Congratulation

"Cin, take a picture, yuk." Yoga is ready with poselnya to selfie after the victory of Love.

"Eh, Brother Sofian, come here, come."

SNAP UP!

Piiip

The notification sound from my phone sounded. Ten o'clock less than a quarter of the night, my eyes from earlier could not sleep. I got out of bed to pick up the flat object on the study table.

I opened a chat that just came. Three photos from Yoga. I smiled seeing him.

"Great."

Today is Monday. The flag ceremony has become a mandatory event in the morning before entering the class. After the ceremony was over, the teacher who became the ceremonial builder gave the order not to disperse first. There is something to be said.

"We got some good news this morning. Participants who participated in the competition at Sanjaya University previously won the champion ranking in each of the four subjects competed, namely Biology, Physics, Chemistry, and Mathematics..."

All the ceremonial attendees took the news seriously, the originally orderly rows neatly falling apart as the ones that got the ranks behind were crammed forward to see what was happening ahead there.

The names of the winners of the race are told ahead.

"Love! You won too, huh? KYAA!" There was a boisterous sound from another class followed by his classmates.

"To Adinda Cinta please come forward." The teacher said in front with a microphone in his hand.

Hysterical cries broke out on the field as Love walked forward. After his name, Sofian's name was mentioned, he came forward.

Shouts from the fans sounded boisterous again. Sofian is standing next to Love.

"Congratulations, yes, Cin." Sofian.

"Congratulations, Brother." Love chuckles lightly even though her legs are still trembling standing.

"Cin, would... eat together, right? I'll deal with it."

Love thinks for a moment, he is confused what to answer with the invitation. "Today I'm treated to the same meal, brother."

"Tomorrow not?"

Love is not good to refuse but it is also not good to accept, because... His gaze this time turned to one of the lines there.

"Can't be either, huh?" Sofian suddenly interjected.

"Eh. Mm, can, Brother."

Sofian smiled. He became awkward standing in his place now, his head bowed holding all his face, "Ok, tomorrow we meet on the seat only after to the cafeteria." Sofian turned to a garden chair in front of him and turned to Love.

Love can only nod but be a little forced.

This time I was invited to eat again at the break, because Yoga made a Love treaty after the race was over. I had to eat speeding like before.

Yoga ordered an order for the three of us, me and Love took a seat first.

After I got the table, I saw Love was not as excited as ever. I was so confused about having to reprove how so I decided to wait for Yoga, I believe Yoga can understand this situation.

"Eh, Cin, why is that his face?"

Tuh, right. Yoga is so sensitive to things like this. Mercifully.

"No papa, Ga. Yuk, eat." Love took her order from the tray that Yoga brought. He ate without much talking.

Yoga and I watched her for a while. My memory goes back to the mading. My order was immediately greedy as well, of course in a hasty fashion.

It didn't take long for me to finally finish dealing with the food. I then drank water in a glass until it ran out.

There has been no conversation so far and I finished sooner than usual.

"Ga, China. I go first, yeah." I've been standing up from the chair.

"Yes, Bay." Yoga answered, while Cinta was still busy with her food without turning her head at all other than the food in front of her.

Oh, yes, I forgot. "Mm, Cin."

"Congratulations, yes, make it the other rank."

Love smiled lightly. Then continue eating again.

"If so, I'll go first." I also passed from the canteen continuing my goal back to the mading room.

"Eh, Cin. You why? It hurt?" Yoga stops with eating.

Love sighed, "Ga, tomorrow I'm treated to eat with Sofian's sister."

"Trus?"

"I'm not good, Ga."

"Why not?"

"If you want to treat a trus person to be rejected how?"

Yoga seems to think and then understand.

"I just dare to be treated with both of you." Continue Love, he again scoops lazy food in front of him. His face was gloomy and not excited.

Yoga begins to understand the direction of Love. Sofian recently seems closer to Love. Indeed, the position is because they are both in the same space, the space of mathematics, but his attention is more than just chatting because of mathematics.

"You take it first, Cin. I'm sure Sofian's brother didn't rashly ask you to eat with him."

Meanwhile in the mading room

"Chairman, that was Madam, right? Wow really great, only in tenth grade this has been able to rank one in the math race." Genta started with his cerocos today. His hands were not bothered to continue writing his work, seen multitasking.

"Eh, really? That was the same student as the Chairman? Crazy, really great. Chairman congratulated dong, huh?" Another colleague answered from his seat.

"What do you love him? A flower? Chocolate boy? Accessories?" The other colleague stuck.

The room is boisterous with that topic. I didn't know how to answer them, other than because my work had already begun, I was so distracted. I wanted to go out looking for a quiet place, but it would not be effective if I brought those sheets of paper as well.

"Chairman." The bell is in front of my desk.

I glanced at him, my hand stopped in ink, he was even a grin with the stature I was used to seeing. He then bent his legs so that his arms could perch in front of my desk.

"The chief has given him something yet to congratulate him?" Genta is becoming more and more now.

I am not at all concerned with my work. In return, I shook my head quickly, hoping he would get away right now.

"Oh, not yet, yeah. That's why I advise the Chairman to love something he likes, Chief. Flowers or something, let her get excited."

"Genta.. Hitherto. The chairman doesn't squabble, he, his job." The former chairman eventually rebuked.

"Fine, Brother Rian. Here's another tip for the Chairman. I think the Chairman has not experienced the same about this. I love enlightenment."

The former chairman chuckled no longer in response to Genta who would not be willing to stop with the job.

"Yes, Chief. Don't forget the love. Someone else's first, you." Genta tries to seduce with his weird seduction.

I couldn't avoid hearing it. For now I say all his words, and the good news finally Genta left my desk.

***

I felt hypnotized by Genta's words. The memory of what he said earlier shackled my mind.

Now I'm on my way home, walking as usual, alone. But suddenly I wanted to go to a bookstore not far from where I am now. Be I follow my heart, go to the bookstore but don't know what to buy there.

I opened the door to the bookstore. The sight that was seen did not change from before, except that only a few items had already been purchased by the visitors who came.

I walked to the corner of the notebook. Lots of interesting notebooks there, so I want to buy all kinds, but it is not possible.

I thought again of Genta's words. My mind is not going to fuck now. With minimal consideration I then decided to buy a notebook to... Love's. This I did so that my mind would no longer be busy about 'what I should buy something for Love as a congratulation or not'.

But, I had absolutely no idea which one to choose, which I knew was identical to pink. But I dare not show it later when paying at the cashier, embarrassed.

There are a lot of people there who look funny in my opinion. But, is that not so childish. I'm so confused by all this. Which one should I take now.

Finally my hand took two notebooks that I thought were good and no longer glanced at the others so as not to be tempted to see them which made me even more confused. After that, I went to the cashier to pay for my groceries here.

This notebook, I plan to give it to you tomorrow. The sooner the better, I don't like to pile the load on the mind. Hope this is useful for him.
