Take My Heart's
AN ACCIDENTAL MEETING



The school bell sign of rest finally rang out loud. All the class residents cheered as the lesson that had racked their brains stopped for a while. The same is happening inside the XI class of IPA 1 right now. The residents in the class seemed jostling to leave the class. I don't know where they're headed. Clearly, they have one goal in common, letting go of the fatigue felt after learning.


Khalisha seemed to casually put her books in a bag. He had no interest in going to the school cafeteria like his classmates. He then took out the bread that his grandmother deliberately bought as a food supply today. Like the days before, the pocket money in his uniform was just enough to go home and go to school. Although a pack of bread can not make him full, at least can block his stomach that began to rumble.


"Hi, Lis!" sapa Mayang approached.


The accosted immediately set his eyes on the three girls who were now standing in front of him. Mayang smiled at him. But unfortunately, the two girls standing behind Mayang were looking at him with scowling faces. It's obvious that they don't like him.


"To the cafeteria, yuk!" take friendly.


Both Siska and Dita were shocked by Mayang. There was no wind, no rain, suddenly Mayang was friendly to Khalisha, even taking her to the cafeteria together. Though only yesterday he approached and chatted with Khalisha, but his attitude was as if he had known and befriended her for a long time.


"Well, did you take him to the cafeteria with us? I don't agree" said Siska Ketus. It was clearly a dislike that was seen on his face.


"Yes, May. Why did you take him to the cafeteria with us? Males is so with him. What do our friends say when they see us walking together with the nerd? Which is even embarrassing," continued Dita no less ketusnya.


Siska and Dita from class X do not like Khalisha. Besides being famous for being quiet, he is also famous as a nerd. Those who are famous for their image as rich and popular schoolgirls must be embarrassed to be seen with the impoverished nerdy Khalisha. But that's not all. Khalisha, who always won first place, unconsciously made Siska jealous of him. He who has studied hard, still lost to Khalisha.


Mayang snorted annoyedly at the words of his two friends. He was eager to rebuke them of their careless attitude, but it was forced to be undone. For three years he was friends with Siska and Dita. Little by little, he knew what their nature was. Although he has been friends for a long time, he cannot dwell when they are angry. If he dared to rebuke him, fearing not only himself who would get into trouble with them, but Khalisha who did not know anything would also get the impact. They will definitely consider Khalisha as the source of their problems.


"Where, Lis? You're going to the cafeteria with us, aren't you?" bring Mayang back awkwardly.


"I'm not going to the cafeteria. You go with your friends. Besides, I already have provisions" said Khalisha not interested.


Siska snorted in annoyance. Just this time someone dared to reject Mayang's invitation in front of his own eyes.


"Sorry very much, son. Thank goodness someone wants to convince you to go to the cafeteria, but was rejected outright. Yes, yes. Just say if you don't have money for snacks in the cafeteria. Aye, right?"


Khalisha stared coldly, then said, "I don't have any money for a snack in the cafeteria. After all, don't you and your friend like it if I go there with you. So you better go now."


"You—"


"Siska, Dita, we should go to the cafeteria now. If over time, we can not even bench there," cut Mayang quickly. He did not want to have a fight between them.


"Yes, Sis. We better get to the cafeteria now. Why are we tired of talking to weird girls like him," continued Dita.


Mayang immediately pulled Siska's hand and took her out of the classroom. Although upset with Khalisha, inevitably Siska stepped foot following Mayang. Dita also automatically set foot following them leaving Khalisha. But still, he left a sharp look on Khalisha, as if to teach her a lesson.


Class is really quiet. There was no one but Khalisha there. He ate the bread that became his lunch. Not yet finished the bread in his mouth, he took out three books and departed from his stool. He then moved his foot to the library. Instead of going to the cafeteria he just sat watching people eat, he better spend his rest time in the school library.

The school corridor did look crowded when the break arrived. There were a lot of students from various classes huddling and gossiping there. Among the many disciples, Khalisha preferred to walk alone. He did not feel his footsteps getting closer to the library. After three more classes, he could read books there.


BRUK!


Khalisha fell down. But strangely, there was no expression of pain on his face. The look in his eyes even looks flat towards the guy who is also sitting like himself. The man then got up with a face that was grimacing in pain. His hand was spontaneously holding his aching butt. Instead of helping Khalisha stand up, she stared intently at Khalisha.


"Have no eyes? Because of you I fell," the boy scolded.


Khalisha did not at all understand the man's words, rather lazy to deal with him. He picked up three books lying on the floor, got up and walked away from the boy. However, just two steps away, his hand was suddenly pulled by the guy. His strong hand pull alone made Khalisha lose her balance and finally hit the guy. Seeing Khalisha being very close to him, the man hurriedly pushed Khalisha.


"You were intentional, huh? You're looking for a chance to get close to me, aren't you? I know I'm a popular guy here. Many girls are looking for opportunities to get close to me. But sorry, yeah. Your way is very predictable. It won't work with me" her cerocos prided herself.


Khalisha looked at him coldly, then said, "I have absolutely no intention and no thought to approach you. Besides, if you hadn't taken my hand, I wouldn't have hit you either. And all you have to remember, what made you fall was yourself. You who run recklessly and do not pay attention to the road."


The guy was silent. After a thought back, what he had just heard was indeed true. He is the cause of himself falling. But still, he could not admit his mistake. Shame if he had to apologize to the strange girl in front of him.


"I assume it's over. I go first" Khalisha said, wanting to leave immediately.


The guy woke up from his daydream. He caught his breath, trying to hide the shame of his attitude.


"Who told you to go? Our business is not done."


"Here, I'm not at all wrong. So, our business is done" Khalisha said.


"You—"


"I'll go first. I'm lazy to talk to you." After saying that, Khalisha went away leaving the guy.


"How dare you ignore me?!" yelled the guy angry.


The guy immediately caught his breath, trying to control his emotions. He could not believe what had just happened to him. Just this time he was made angry by a girl, the first girl who dared to ignore him. Although the meeting with him was only a moment, he could see if the girl was different from the girls who always surrounded him. There was not the slightest interest in his face. Although annoyed by him, there is no denying if the girl managed to attract his attention. He even continued to look at his figure who had gone away.


"Freaky girl, how dare you say that to me. I've never found a girl like you. As long as you go to school here, I will definitely find you soon. You just calm down. I will definitely teach you a lesson," muttered the man with a strange smile, a smile that held meaning.
