Smile Effects

The Clang to the Seventeen

"Candy, please help me dong~" nagged Rena while shaking Candy's arm.

I don't know, when he arrived in class his best friend had acted misuh-misuh while shaking his hands.

"Please what the hell, Na? I don't know what to do if you don't explain first" Candy said. Why do people always talk without explaining first?

"Relse, Can ... Egi," said Rena restless, the habit of the girl if worried must be biting her nails.

Candy put Rena's hand out of her mouth. He was afraid that the girl's hand would get hurt if it was bitten continuously.

"Calm down first. Why Egi?" Candy asked confusedly. Because he really does not understand what is being talked about from Rena who misuh-misuh unclear.

"He pergokin me again ngomogin another cogan!" Said Rena fast—asapat train speeding.

Candy blinked her eyes a few times. Wait, so all Rena wants to talk to her about is that? Ck, why do you have to mince words first.

"Oh," said Candy halfheartedly.

Rena gawking. This friend of his did not give him a solution to help himself avoid the tantrums of Egi, the lover.

"So, how should I? Egi now definitely nyariin me again. Did I skip, huh?" Thought worried.

"You obviously. If you're just gossiping isn't another purpose" Candy said, opening her exercise book.

"Well, he's still craving me, how?" Ask Rena with a sad face.

Candy closed her olympic exercise book. "Have patience,"

"It looks like talking! Why do I have a possessive boyfriend. Damn, I fell in love with him!"

"I don't know," said Candy shrugging both shoulders.

"Ish, you are! From that moment, his answer was short. Don't you actually males nanggepin my story?!" Rena Ngegas.

Candy massaged the base of her nose slowly. His mind was clouded by one thing. Regaz, last night he couldn't keep the guy company until he woke up for fear of coming home last night.

Even though the guy has been preaching it on his phone that Regaz is fine. Still, Candy was worried. How Candy is not worried if the guy is battered and fell unconscious.

Candy also did not see Regaz at school this morning, usually Regaz already in the classroom while maiming the ball in the morning.

"... Dy ... Candy!"

"Yes, yeah. I'm horrified, kok!"

"Ah lo mah, lie ...," and blah, blah, blah. Rena nagging Candy. Until the girl has to cover her ears that feel hot.

***

The school's clock went off fifteen minutes ago. Today, he is not tutoring because Regaz did not attend school. That means he will return home soon today.

However, it had been fifteen minutes he was just sitting leaning back at the bus stop. Not to take a bus, but to take shelter from the rain that fell very heavy. Candy sighed, if she had just received an invitation to go home with Rena, maybe she could have helped her mother sooner.

"When does the rain stop, huh?" He muttered softly while staring softly at the rain water dripping down the ground.

"Try asking the sky, guaranteed not to answer."

Candy flinched as a baritone voice shrunk beside her. Wasn't he alone at this bus stop? Slowly he turned his head slowly.

The guy with half wet hair and the jacket he took off looked at Candy while displaying his wide grin.

"Aryan?" Candy said the guy's name hesitantly.

"Hey," Arya smiled widely. "Waiting for the bus?"

Candy shook her head. "Wait for the rain to stop, not the bus."

The guy just nodded in response. His hands were busy ruffling his half wet hair. Candy looked at Arya doubtfully.

Arya re-opens the voice when Candy still displays a doubtful look. "You want it, don't hesitate!"

"Mm, that's ... Regaz, have you seen him?"

Arya stopped her activities, then looked at Candy seriously. Now Candy feels the air getting colder as the surrounding atmosphere turns serious. Arya who always displays her friendly face earlier, changed into a flat face.

Candy felt dejavu with this. He had this feeling when Regaz took him to his hangout, last night.

"Lo same Regaz accident last night when he nganterin lo. But why don't you scuff one bit, even Regaz who bonyok?" Instead of answering, Arya asked Candy who was uncomfortable in her place.

'I shouldn't have asked that, ' he said in his heart.

"Why diem?"

Candy bit her lower lip slowly. He still remembers Arya's threat to him last night.

"Actually, it's not because of an accident but because he fights the same thugs who want to slam us at night," said Candy slowly. He lowered his head, Candy was ready if he had to accept Aryan's anger. Last night was because of him, wasn't it? If only he hadn't come with Regaz maybe that guy would be fine by now.

"Pft, why are you so stiff. Sans ae, I won't bite you," Arya laughed at the look of fear that emanated from Candy's face. "Lo this is because of my words last night, huh? Don't think about it, I was kidding at the time," he said again in the middle of his laughter.

Candy smiled forcefully. Kidding, huh? But why did Candy feel Arya was serious when she said that.

Puk, pukkpuk.

Arya patted Candy's head crest twice, making the girl jump. He looked at Arya confused. The boy's hand was still on his head. What's this for?

"He's all right, really. I looked at each other at night. Even nginep was there," Arya pulled her arm back. He changed his seat back to face the front.

"When is it in the hospital?"

"He wants to go home. So, we went to her apartment" Arya explained.

Candy nodded. The rain was not as hard as before, but he still refused to move. His school uniform only had one he was afraid of getting wet. So, he decided to wait for the rain to subside.

"Today the rain was very heavy exactly the incident at that time," said Arya suddenly.

"I mean?"

"It's nothing. You really don't want to, do you?" Arya turned to look at Candy who was confused by her sentence.

Candy frowning. Can't remember what? Is there anything special he missed?

"Hahaha, it turns out that you're an acute forgetful!" Arya's laughter was muffled by the falling raindrops hitting the zinc of the bus stop.

Candy scratched her head which was indeed itchy. He laughed awkwardly. It's true he was forgetful, but he didn't know if Arya knew about his illness.

"The bus is coming, let's go up. I payin, the danger of girls coming home alone in the afternoon gini," Arya stood up from her seat.

"Eh? No, I'm jal-"

"Udah, come!" Not had time to refuse Arya had already pulled her hand to ride the bus.

"When I get paid, I change the money,"

Arya pulls Candy into one of the empty seats near the bus driver.

"No need. Instead you want-inget what you've been through!"

Remember what he passed?
