See You Tonight

Chapter 65: Surprising Facts

On Monday, August 22, after school I, Ahsan, and Ruben plan to visit a museum in the northern area of the city. Because it is located quite far which is about 20 km, we also went by bus.

Besides Ahsan and Ruben, this time I will also go with Aji and Renaldi. While we were discussing it, Aji overheard it and then volunteered to go to the museum with us.

At 15:45, we were still at the stop waiting for the bus heading that way. Because it is located outside the city, it is rather difficult to find a bus that leads there.

After about 15 minutes of waiting, we finally managed to get on the bus that led to it. When we got on, the atmosphere of the bus was a bit loose. We can also fairly freely determine the sitting position we like. However, because of the five of us, we decided to sit in the back seat that was able to accommodate five people directly.

"Sepi is also the bus" said Aji.

"Well, by the way you've been to the Independence museum how many times has Ji?" ask Ahsan.

"I've just had an impression. That was also when I was very small, maybe when I was a Kindergarten first," replied Aji.

"If you're Ren?" ahsan asked Renaldi who had always been silent without speaking a word.

"This is the first one" Renaldi replied flatly.

"Can't you smile, Ren?" now it was Ruben's turn to speak.

"Woi keep talking to you, Ben. You want to go home with just a name?" ahsan said in a joking tone.

"Hahahaha you guys are so funny well," Aji laughed.

Renaldi remained silent and continued to gaze at the left view of the road through the window to his left. He seemed to pay little heed to the words of Ahsan and Reuben.

"We are dicuekin nih San," muttered Ruben.

"No papa Ben, you better hurry up and apologize to Renaldi and stop bothering him" Ahsan said in a joking tone.

"Isn't that even your words that bother him more San? Mending you're the one apologizing to him now" Reuben replied.

"What the fuck is tuch? How am I supposed to apologize?" Ahsan was a little surprised.

"Hahaha, no one should apologize to her. Although he was quiet like that, but Renaldi was a good person. I guarantee it," now it's Aji's turn to talk.

"By the way you've known you for a long time?" ask Ruben curiously.

"Yes, Renaldi and I have been from Elementary school since they went to the same school. So, until now it has been about 10 years I know Renaldi," explained Aji.

"Has Renaldi always been quiet like that?" tanya Ahsan was curious.

"Yes that's how hahahaha is, even the look on his face has never changed in almost 10 years" Aji said with a laugh.

Ahsan and Ruben followed Aji laughing.

"Whose favorite football club are you?" now it was Aji's turn to ask the three of us.

"If I have always loved Manchester United" Ahsan replied.

"If I had certainly been Chelsea" replied Ruben.

"If I were Liverpool" I replied.

"Well everything is from England well hahaha," Aji laughed a little.

"If you're Ji's own?" ask Ahsan.

"If it's Renaldi, you know?" ask Ahsan again.

"If Renaldi really likes Barcelona hahaha," now Aji laughs again.

"Wah wah, it means you are enemies dong when viewed from your favorite club hahaha," Ahsan said with a laugh.

"Yes, but we never ridicule each other if one of our favorite teams loses. So, we never make a fuss about that. But Liverpool and Manchester United are also rivals, right?" said Aji.

"Yes, but I rarely talk about football. So, I never mocked him if Liverpool lost or something" Ahsan explained.

We were on this bus for about 30 minutes. Maybe in about 10 minutes we'll be there. The bus that was quite quiet, is now increasingly filled and crowded. Only one or two seats remain empty.

To be honest, this is my first time heading to the Independence museum. So, when Ahsan and Ruben first took me there, I immediately agreed. I'm quite curious, about what it is.

"Oi, by the way, have you got Ji's girlfriend yet at High School?" Ahsan suddenly asked a pretty sensitive question.

"Eh? Why suddenly ask such a question?" Aji looked rather surprised.

"It's not papa. Don't shy. So, what's the matter yet?" ask Ahsan again a little urgently.

"Not yet," replied Aji somewhat blushed.

"Well dong hahahaha. I thought you had a boyfriend, because you were a bit more famous among girls than us" Ahsan said.

"Eh really? I think even Galang is the most famous among women," said Aji who immediately made Ahsan and Ruben surprised, even I was surprised by what Aji said.

"Ehhh Galang? How come???" ask Reuben astonished.

"Eh you don't know yet? Every time I talk to the girls in our class, it's not uncommon for them to ask me about Galang. They asked if Galang already had a girlfriend or not. I thought you guys knew" said Aji.

"Ehhhhhh? How cana? Why could that be? Though Galang is always with us, why is he the only one who is famous among girls?" Reuben was still astonished.

"You can explain what this means, Lang?" Ahsan immediately asked me a question.

"I just found out that too. If you're asking me why it is, I don't know either. All I do in class is just with you, the rest of me just sit still in my chair while occasionally reading a book," I explained.

When the topic started to heat up, the bus stopped. Turns out we've reached the last stop before the Independence museum. We went down and ended the conversation.

To be honest I was also as surprised as Ahsan and Ruben. I didn't think I was popular with girls. I never even thought about it for a second.

After getting off at the stop, we had to walk again about 1 km to get to the Independence museum. The atmosphere here is very cold. Large trees are seen neatly lined up on the right-left side of the road. The road is not too crowded either.

"But I still didn't expect that you were so popular like that Lang. If you want, you can tell me that" Ruben said.

"Haaa? What the fuck is tuch?" reply Ahsan with his special accent.

"I didn't ask you San" replied Ruben.

"Hahahaha," Aji laughed.
