Take My Heart's

INITIATING ACTION APPROACH 2

The school bell sign of rest finally rang out loud. After the teacher left the classroom, the originally quiet class was now turned into a riot. Most of them rushed to put their books in the bag, then walked quickly out of the classroom. The same thing happened to Daniel. He quickly stuffed his books into a bag, then got up from his chair. A small smile was seen on his lips. He was already impatient to approach Khalisha in his class.

Nathan casually put his books in a bag. His stomach was not too hungry made him feel reluctant to go to the cafeteria. His eyes then glanced at Daniel, then sighed to see his friend's strange behavior.

"Where are you going, Niel?"

"To the cafeteria," he answered briefly, then left just like that, leaving Nathan still staring at his disappearance.

Andhika and Bayu's eye view that originally led to the book on the table, suddenly turned to Nathan.

"Why is Daniel, Than?" ask Andhika.

"Obviously" Nathan said.

"meaning? What dong said by the way!" said Bayu curious.

"Especially if you don't want to samperin Khalisha," Nathan said with a small smile. Curiosity is starting to appear. He wanted to see how Daniel approached Khalisha. It would be an interesting show for him.

"Oh, I guess what. But I was curious to see Daniel approach Khalisha. Moreover, Khalisha is eleven and twelve Daniel," said Andhika curious.

"Yes, Dhik. I'm also curious," said Bayu, "by the way, how do you know that the girl whom Daniel was expecting was the same as Daniel? We rarely met him. If you count them twice, right."

"I'm just gonna take it. I never met him on purpose. You know it isn't. I asked him to talk, eh not even responded to him. Once responded, he did not look at me at all. Not polite, is it? I even felt like I was talking to myself" Andhika recalled her meeting with Khalisha at the library.

Bayu was surprised, then laughed at Andhika's words. Just this time he heard an Andhika who is always admired by girls because of her friendly nature can be ignored by a girl.

"To the canteen, yuk! Laper," asked Bayu, then got up from his chair.

Andhika got up. His stomach can no longer be compromised to not be filled with food. Although not too hungry, Nathan chose to follow his two best friends. He was also bored sitting alone in class.

On the other hand, Daniel walked with a cheerful face towards the class of his heart. He had only been separated from Khalisha for a few hours, but he had not seen her for years. He smiled at me thinking about that. Although it seems excessive, but that's how he feels at this time.

***

Mayang limply put his books in a bag. Because he had a little breakfast, now his stomach can not be compromised anymore. He had to go to the cafeteria to fill his stomach with food.

"To the canteen yuk, Lis!" take Mayang. He did not want to eat alone in the cafeteria.

Khalisha seemed to think. He was even confused between joining Mayang's invitation to the cafeteria or refusing it. On the one hand, he was also very hungry. The food he had brought had been eaten by Daniel. But on the other hand, he felt affectionate with his pocket money which for two days never increased.

"Friend me Lis eat in the cafeteria. You eat the food in the canteen just like me," said Mayang, "want ya, Lis. Please...."

"I'm done with it" answered Khalisha honestly.

Mayang was rather shocked to hear the reply from Khalisha. Not usually Khalisha eat his provisions before the break arrives. He usually eats his food on the second break. However, just the first break, the food supply is up first.

"That's tumben. Didn't you have breakfast this morning?"

"I will eat Daniel earlier" Khalisha said.

Mayang stared in disbelief. "Seriously you, Lis? Daniel ate your food?"

"Yes. He was starving because he didn't eat breakfast" Khalisha replied, curbing his hunger.

"Oh" replied Mayang briefly. He seemed no longer interested in discussing Daniel further. His stomach was starving. "We're going to the cafeteria, yuk! I'll buy you a meal."

Khalisha took a breath. It's also not good to refuse Mayang's invitation. Moreover, Mayang wanted to treat him just to accompany him to eat in the cafeteria. Mayang must have been very hungry, but he did not want to eat alone there.

"Yes, I'll feed you. But you don't need to treat me. I still have money for snacks in the cafeteria."

"Yes. Thanks, Lis. You are indeed my best friend," said Mayang smiling happily, "yuk, walk!"

Both Mayang and Khalisha stepped towards the wide open door of the classroom. However, just as they passed through the classroom door, both of their eyes widened to see a figure standing not far from their class.

"Hi, Lis!" daniel smiled.

"Kok you're here? What was? Do you need anything?" khalisha asked puzzled by Daniel's presence outside his class.

"I'm here to make sure you go to the cafeteria. You are finished I ate earlier. You must be hungry" he asked.

"Well, what a coincidence. We also want to go to the cafeteria" said Mayang suddenly. He was rather excited because he was going to eat together with one of the popular guys at his school.

Daniel did not comment at all on Mayang's remarks. Both of his eyes glanced at Mayang at a glance, then refocused on Khalisha. His heart was upset with Mayang. His intention was to be alone with Khalisha, but was disturbed because his friend Khalisha was with Khalisha.

Feeling ignored, Mayang snorted in annoyance. Not that Mayang envies or dislikes if Daniel only pays attention to Khalisha, he just does not like to be ignored when he is talking. At least invited to chat, even if it's just a stale base.

"If so, we both go there. Yuk, move!" take Khalisha, then step into the canteen.

Without saying anything more, Daniel set foot in harmony with Khalisha. His two eyes occasionally glanced at Khalisha, then gave a small smile. He was eager to hold Khalisha's hand, but it certainly should not be done. His relationship with Khalisha is still limited to employers and maids, not girlfriends let alone friends.

Mayang who continued to pay attention to Daniel's attitude began to feel suspicious. He felt that the Daniel he heard was very cold, seemed to like his friend. But if Daniel is who he thinks he is, he would be happy and would help him get Khalisha. Khalisha is a good girl. It was fitting that he got the best. And he also knows from his friends, although Daniel is cold and difficult to approach, Daniel is a good guy. He was never seen with another girl. I hope what he thinks will happen soon. The longer he watched them walk side by side, he felt they looked like lovers.

All eyes in the canteen were now in one direction. Yes, the arrival of Daniel along with Khalisha and Mayang became a spectacle for the people in the cafeteria, especially for the girls. Daniel and Mayang were normal, but not Khalisha. Khalisha was uncomfortable with this situation. Even though their gaze was not on him, he still felt uncomfortable with them.

"You wait here! I'll buy some food first" Daniel ordered.

"Buy me meatballs yes, Daniel," Mayang's pinta showed off her smile. He sat down next to Khalisha.

Daniel looked at Mayang. It could be that Khalisha's friend, whom she did not know her name, told her to buy him food. He breathed heavily, trying to regulate his emotions. He did not want to be angry or talk rudely to his friend Khalisha, rather did not want to look bad in front of Khalisha. Fortunately, he was a friend of Khalisha's. If not his friend, he certainly would not want to go with him.

Not yet he left, Nathan, Andhika, and Bayu suddenly came to him. He grunted annoyed. In addition to Khalisha's friend, there are others who bother him alone with Khalisha.

"That's coincidental. Niel, you want to buy food, right? Just buy me some meatballs, yeah" Nathan said, sitting down.

"I am too, Niel," said Bayu.

"Me too, Niel. Buy me some mineral water" Andhika smiled.

Daniel was getting upset. Just coming to the cafeteria, they dared to tell him to buy food. Instead of eating alone with Khalisha, this was eating a lot.

"Damn it! Just disturb. I want to be with Khalisha. Why are they even joining in, anyway. Pake the event rumbles all over again," his mind was upset.

It's weird sitting around like this. Khalisha, who used to sit alone in class, now sits with Mayang, Daniel, and Daniel's three friends.

Seeing that Daniel had many orders, he rose up. It's not good to let Daniel do it alone, let alone to work for Daniel. There is no way he who works as a maid let his employer buy food for his friends alone.

"Where are you going, Lis?" daniel asked spontaneously.

"I want to help you" he answered, then approached Daniel.

"You sit there with them. Let me buy the food."

Nathan smiled a little at Daniel. "Niel, don't dong. Khalisha is well intentioned to help you. It's not good to refuse people's help. Okay, Lis. Don't listen to Daniel. Help him buy our order. Me and the others are hungry."

"Damn you, Than," grumbled Daniel.

Again Nathan smiled to see his best friend was upset. He got up and pulled Daniel by the hand until Daniel stood very close to Nathan.

"Not to be a fool! You enjoy it. You can be alone for a while with Khalisha. Go there already!" whispered.

Hearing this, Daniel became delighted. What Nathan said was true. At least he can be alone with Khalisha while waiting for the order to be ready. Daniel immediately let go of Nathan's hand and approached Khalisha.

"Yeah, Lis! Later the queue is more and more," said Daniel, then stepped away from those who continue to look at him.

Khalisha set his feet in harmony with Daniel. He also did not want to wait too long for food to be cooked. His stomach was patiently asking for food.

"Lis, what do you want to eat?" ask Daniel suddenly.

"Just like the others."

"You don't want to eat anything else? What's your favorite food?" ask Daniel in curiosity. He wanted to know more about Khalisha. It would definitely be useful for him in approaching Khalisha.

Khalisha seemed to think. "Hmm. I don't know. Usually all the food on the dinner table I eat all."

"Oh, yes," said Daniel, "if meatballs, have you eaten before?"

"Either."

"When? You don't like the same taste?"

"Your time for meatballs is the same as mine. It was the first time I ate meatballs. I like how it feels. It feels really good" answered Khalisha honestly.

Daniel was surprised to hear that. He found out that he was the first person to make Khalisha feel the food she had never eaten. Although it was not important, somehow he felt happy to hear it. Maybe in the future, he will do things that Khalisha has never felt before.
