Title: Rain, Anime and Love (Part 1)
_________________________
Raindrops and lightning sounds woke the melody from her deep sleep. He slowly opened his eyes and turned his gaze to the window of his room. 'Argh. rained again, ' his sigh slowly. For a moment he remembered about the events of that time, when he was still sitting in the tenth grade of High School. If he can choose, he wants to sleep without waking up when the rain falls so that he does not remember the dark past. So dark was the past, 'removing the memory of that Ya Rabb.' he sighed again.
'Melody, let's get up fast. You said you were going to the bookstore?'
There was a baby girl calling him, Mom ajeng her aunt. Today Melody plans to go to the andromeda bookstore to buy her latest anime comic series 'Naruto'. Although Melody is now 19 years old and has the status of a student of one of the famous universities in Indonesia, it does not make it out of his old habits, reading and watching anime. For melody anime is his inspiration, every ending of the anime is always memorable and the mandate of the struggle how to get a love and love life that is no less amazing.
When talking about love, sometimes melody feels jealous of the characters in the anime. Why does every beautiful love story only exist in anime?
'Melody, you hear me?' the woman shouted a little emotion.
Bu Ajeng, is a female figure who has been patiently taking care of the melody. Melody's father and mother had not lived in Indonesia for a long time. They chose to live in the neighboring country to support him and finance his studies. She felt jealous of her friends who were always around her parents.
'MELODY.' shouted the woman once again in a thunderous voice along with a thunderous voice.
'Yes aunt, melody is awake, melody is still ready' she replied half-screaming
He picked up a towel that hung neatly on the back hanger of his room door. He immediately rushed to the bathroom, he did not want to hear his aunt's babble again.
—
Viewed by a row of books neatly arranged in the white-painted room. Melody flips through and examines each page cover of the book, 'nah met' he said slowly when the discovery of the latest series of Naruto comics. He picked up the book, and he began to look back and forth to see if there was an empty chair for him to sit in.
'ehh, half anime man'
Suddenly there was a male voice that seemed familiar to melody. Whose? he looked over quickly hoping it wasn't the guy he meant. Melody's hopes were lost.
'Why are you here? Looking for the latest anime updates? Or want to see the latest anime comics?' he said half-sneed again
It was used to melody hearing such rants from her mouth. His name is Kevin, but not Kevin Aprilio. He is a melody-class guy whose hobbies are insinuating, timid, defiling and making melody a hundred times a thousand degrees over two hundred and thirty-six thousand eight hundred *blablabla undefined* angry. Akkha.. Kevin thought exactly the same madara in Naruto anime that is not human at all.
'not your business' replied the short melody while looking away from kevin
'basic chicks half anime that fail. If you become a character in one of the anime comics, that comic will not sell. Haha.' said kevin again half-cried as he walked out of the room
'you're an SD-class vampire monster' said melody slowly half-sniffing
Kevin's figure was not seen again after he turned in a fork near the bookstore. In a position that still stands, somehow the intention of the melody who originally wanted to read another anime series in the bookstore was suddenly gone. He wants to go home soon. She wanted to vent her anger, her resentment into the little doodles in her pink-coated diary.
'huhh. if I had sasuke's jutsu, I raikiri you vin' said melody annoyed
Melody immediately went to the cashier and hoped to quickly leave the place. It's all because of Kevin the vampire monster in the Elementary School class.
'32,500 mbak.' said the cashier surprised him.
'oh yes, briefly' he replied while looking for a wallet in his small bag. But what was sought was never found, examined again, torn apart the entire contents of the bag. But still not found. And ahhh, melody just remembered that the wallet she was looking for was left on her study table when she put the remaining money yesterday. 'How is this?, use a credit card yes credit card, but where is possible, I just do not bring my wallet. How'this? Did I go home first to get it? Huh huh? do not deh do, this is a best seller comic, ntar even not part. Let's melody think.thinkrr.' Such a statement rages on melody's mind.
'how mbak?, many are waiting in line behind mbak' asked the cashier to remind melody who increasingly makes himself hot cold uncharacteristic
'hmm. anu mas, sorry his wallet missed.' replied melody while grimacing as if she felt innocent at all.
'yes already, mingingan now mbak go home take his wallet first, want to buy a book kok wallet pake event left behind' grumbled the cashier who was about 24 years old
'missing the mas is not left behind' said melody half emotion. 'Foolish anyway it's a cashier guard, where there are people leaving his wallet intentionally when he wants to buy something huhh' grunty in heart
'wait especially mbak?, behind the many who queue to pay. If there is no need to be able to get out of this queue place' said the cashier's guard cynical
'But…'
'let me pay for it' said a guy behind the melody who decided to talk to the chatty cashier. 'all total my book' he continued
Melody could not say a single word. How not, the guy who paid for the book had a very subhanallah level. Look at Oz Vessalius in the Pandora Heart anime. Anime again, anime again.
'155,000 mas in number' the cashier's keeper told Oz vessalius
'credit card' answered the guy while giving his credit card to the cashier.
The cashier officer also started swiping credit cards belonging to a guy who looks like Oz Vessalius. 'this is mas, ' said the cashier keeper while returning the man's credit card
'hey, this is your comic.' That guy said to melody, but melody didn't bother him, she was still shocked to look at the Japanese-faced guy's face. 'hello... This is your book, you don't papa right?' he said again, pushing his hand up and down in front of the melody's eyes
'e.. ohh ya' replied melody half-consciously while taking the comic. 'heh, why did you pay for my comic? Don't tell me it's your mode to get to know me' he continued angry when he was fully aware.
'haha.you are funny huh?' answer the guy while laughing. How not to laugh. The expression on melody's initially nervous face was suddenly indignant. Embarrassed right?. 'i haruka' he continued, extending a hand
'huahahaha.' it was melody who laughed out loud. The guy was surprised, maybe he thought this melody was crazy. 'your name is like a haha girl' he continued laughing.
'uh? Not in Japan is not in Indonesia, people must say my name is like a girl' he said moody. 'keep your name who?' he continued with a sweet smile towards melody. Makes the melody feel hypnotized.
'the melody that has a ladder tone?, that's not a melody' he said again with a laugh, again laughing.
'i. that's my point' replied melody embarrassed. 'uhh, yes I want to go home first. I will change the money later. This is as a guarantee' while giving a business card tucked in the bag Hp melody and immediately go running towards the parking lot of his motorbike
'strange girl base' said haruka slowly while staring at the newly obtained business card.
Arriving at home melody immediately put her body into the mattress. How embarrassing it was that happened earlier. 'But, if you remember, that's a sweet guy too. Her smile can't go out of my brain. Hahh.. What the fuck am I? no, anyway I can't think of him. Can't!' melody said slowly.
tuttt.. Hp melody rings. 'tumben, who sent the message? Definitely the operator' he said lirih. Melody intentionally left the message unreadable. Melody continued to stare at the ceiling of her room, occasionally smiling to herself without cause ever since she met Oz Vessalius ehh Haruka she meant. And slowly the melody's eyes began to close
The sound of the ringing alarm woke the melody from her sleep. Look at the window of his room and hope it doesn't rain like yesterday. Water drops are not visible there. The sun was shining brightly without being covered by the grayish-colored clouds..
Tutt.. Hp melody ringing. 3 Incoming messages from a new number. He opens one by one in a row.
'I'm a weird girl, it's Haruka. You still owe me the same I'm the content of the first message. Melody continued reading the second message
'are you asleep, huh? Yes have a good night, beautiful dreams, while smiling at his sleep. And remember, you still have the same debt I haha' melody began to growl. Continue reading the last message. Same thing, haruka's message
'good morning strange girl, her sun shines bright. Look in the window, not first. Mending you hunt for a bath there. Strange girl stinks :p' that's the last message. Melody smiled to herself 'good morning too Haru-chan' she said slowly while smiling
As usual, Melody rushed to take a shower and set off for campus with her pink motorbike. All the items he had were mostly pink. Because for the pink melody symbolizes elegance, beauty and tranquility, although actually the color blue more symbolizes tranquility. Once in class, it turns out there are still two-three students who come. Judging by his watch, 'apparently still at 06.30 wib. It is only fitting that there are still many who have not come, he said in his heart. And as usual, Melody sat down and began to do her habit of writing. He saw that there were 3 pieces of paper left in his book
'Ohayou gozaimatsu, melo' said the new kevin
'don't call me melo, lody or medy. Call my name in full vampire monster replied melody warning
'ohayou gozaimatsu, melody' reworked Kevin
'ohayou, Kevin' replied melody with a smile
'Don't usually Kevin like this? Usually a storm. What dream was he last night? Strange guy' said melody in the heart
'have you had breakfast?, here I was buying bread, the only one for me for you' while giving melody favorite chocolate bread
'thanks, uh tumben-tumbenan you good with me? usually, the storm continues. Where have you been shocked?' answer the melody while peeling and eating kevin's bread
'basis half anime girls do not so, when I'm evil you do not like, when I want good like this you even wonder. What the hell do you want?' ask Kevin wonder
'it's not vin, it's a wonder. But thanks for the bread. You know I'm hungry again and you know that I like chocolate bread' Melody replied with a smile.
'i. yes equally mel' said Kevin. 'crazy, it turns out his smile is sweet too. Don't let this smile get known to others. Anyway your smile is just for me mel' she said inwardly as she looked at the melody face
'you why vin?, something wrong with me?' ask melody astonished.
'haha.no really. Ehh I went to the bathroom first ya mel' replied as it passed
'weird huckers.' said melody lirih.
After college Melody didn't want to go straight home. He wanted to pay a visit to Andromeda's bookstore. Somehow Melody wanted to see Haruka's face again. What happened to melody? Did he start to feel the vibrations of love after five years he didn't feel them?
Fifteen minutes.thirty minutes.an hour has passed, but the awaited is never seen. Melody felt disappointed, she began to realize that her meeting with Haruka was just a coincidence and could not be repeated again. It feels like there is something missing in melody life, why can Haruka make it this way? it was only a day that he met Haruka.
Melody decided to go home. It was impossible for him to meet Haruka again. Maybe yesterday it was just a dream melody. Dreaming of meeting with Haruka the Oz Vessalius. Melody got up from her seat and prepared to leave. However, someone called him
'Hi weird chick' cried haruka from afar.
'hey too Oz Vessalius' reply Melody happy. Melody felt that she could see Haruka again. Melody seemed to want to cry happily at that moment. How good he is.
'what are you doing here? Nyari'in me huh?' haruka asked half-jokingly.
'yee.. who is nyari'in you' replied melody lying. 'I just check the latest anime manga update kok' continued melody while sneering.
'kirain nyari'in me, kirain you again miss me, kirain you want to meet again with me' said haruka berutu while smiling.
'don't be a GR guy. Your face is not a bad face' replied melody mocking. 'Yes I miss you haru-chan' continued melody in my heart.
'i have something for you' Haruka said. 'Taraaa.' he continued, giving VCD pieces to Melody.
'wuaaa. vcd the latest legend of korra. This is for me, brother?' ask melody to make sure.
'iya mel, it's special for you' Haruka replied with a smile
'thanks brother, wah know very well brother if I have not seen this episode' melody smiled happily.
'sam-sama mel. Ehh mel I go home first huh? I have the same business. You spit home, it's late afternoon' haruka pamit
'iya haru-chan, be careful on the road. If there are ants moving, right? But if there is a medium truck, replied Haruka with a mocking smile.
'aissshh. Thanks for the advice mel' Haruka smiled. 'Mel, don't ever wipe that smile on your face? It would be beautiful if every day that smile was engraved on your face mel' continued haruka while leaving the melody in silence.
Melody was eager to shout in that silence. This time Melody really felt the vibes of love that she had long awaited. Melody also looked at the vcd given by haruka. Melody unceasingly smiled as she recalled haruka's words Mel, never erase that smile on your face huh? It would be wonderful if every day that smile was engraved on your face mel'. Melody seemed to fly into the clouds accompanied by the chirping of birds that seemed to also feel what the melody felt.
