Take My Heart's

DISTURBERS

The school bell sign of rest has rung. Mayang's face that looked tangled immediately became cheerful. How not. In addition to the mind-boggling math lessons, teachers who teach are also famous as killer teachers. Therefore, Mayang was very happy when the break time arrived.

The same thing was felt by Khalisha. His face looks excited. But the difference, he was excited because he could not wait to eat his homemade provisions. Minutes into the break, suddenly his stomach asked to be filled with food. He hurriedly put his books in his bag and took his lunch.

"Did I see wrong? That's Daniel, right?" ask one of the students sitting in the back seat next to Mayang.

"Yes right. That's Daniel," replied his colleague with eyes still on the classroom door, "geez, Deniel to our class. Good thing I haven't been to the cafeteria."

"Geez, I'm so lucky today. What a dream did I have last night to the point that Daniel walked into our class" exclaimed the student behind him.

Seeing his classmates who continued to stare at the classroom door, Mayang and Khalisha suddenly turned their eyes to follow their classmates. It was only fitting that the students left behind in the classroom became excited. They saw Daniel walking into their class in his cool style.

When entering the class, Daniel's eyes did not look at the students who seemed enthusiastic about his arrival. His eyes were fixed on only one place, the place where Khalisha was sitting looking at him.

"Why did you come here?" khalisha asked with a fixed look at Daniel.

Daniel looked at Khalisha's desk. As he had expected, Khalisha must have brought food. His hands spontaneously took Khalisha's food.

"Well, do you take my food? Here return!" exclaim Khalisha while reaching for his food.

Instead of returning Khalisha's stock, Daniel raised it aloft, making Khalisha inevitably rise from his seat.

"Daniel, don't mess around! Please give me back my supplies! I'm hungry already" pinta Khalisha in a sad tone.

Mayang and his classmates were shocked by the behavior of Daniel and Khalisha, especially Khalisha. What they had seen all this time, Khalisha was very quiet. Rarely does he talk to anyone else. His face was always flat. But what they see now is very different from what they used to be.

"Daniel, give me back!" pinta Khalisha returned with a rather high voice. His face looks upset. His height is not as high as Daniel makes it difficult to take his food from Daniel's hands.

"Guide me eat!" yell Daniel who made everything in the class open.

"Huh?! You're just here to be accompanied by food?" khalisha asked thoughtlessly with Daniel's mind, "geez, Daniel. You can eat with your friends."

"But I want to be with you, Lis. If you don't want to, I won't give it back" he threatened.

Khalisha was shocked to hear that. Annoyed, he said, "Where can it be. That's mine."

"Come, Lis. Follow me to eat, " said Daniel with a face that was pitying.

Khalisha took a breath. His hand still could not take his food, but his stomach was already very rumbling. By force, he finally gave up.

"Yes, yes, I'm coming with you. Here return!" he said in the end.

Daniel smiled triumphantly. He knew that Khalisha could not resist him. Instead of returning his provisions, his hands even grasped Khalisha's hands, making Khalisha shocked by his actions.

"I borrowed Khalisha" he said, then withdrew Khalisha's hand and walked out of the classroom.

Intentions want to eat in the classroom, but Daniel made him eat somewhere. With his hand held by Daniel, he was forced to follow Daniel.

Mayang continued to look at the departure of Khalisha and Daniel. Not a word came out of his mouth to stop Daniel's messiness with Khalisha. This time he was just a spectator. He himself still could not believe what he had seen. Two people who he knows are cold with others, can both show different attitudes. It is unexpected, two people with a nature that is not much different when being together can show the other side of them.

The bustling atmosphere of the canteen became stirred with the arrival of Daniel. How not to stir. Daniel came with a hand that held Khalisha's hand. Most of them stared in shock. Daniel has never been close to any girl. They think the rumors that once circulated are not true. However, seeing Daniel's gentle attitude towards Khalisha, they slowly began to believe.

Khalisha, who felt that she was the center of attention, became uncomfortable in the canteen. He had no idea that Daniel was so popular at school. Just sitting with him was already a matter of conversation. The box that he had opened was just stared at. His appetite suddenly disappeared.

Daniel who kept watching Khalisha smiled wryly. He may forget that Khalisha is not comfortable in a crowded place, let alone being the center of attention. Although he does not have a problem with all that, but that does not mean the people who are nearby will be the same as him.

"Close stock! Let's get out of here" Daniel said suddenly.

"Find a quieter place. It's too crowded here" Daniel replied, then closed Khalisha's stock.

Just as Daniel had risen from his stool, suddenly Nathan, Andhika, and Bayu came to him. Their faces looked both annoyed.

"Where are you going? We just nyampe," said Bayu, then sat down at Daniel's place.

Without Daniel's consent, Andhika and Nathan sit down. Quietly, they ate the food they bought.

Daniel looked at his three best friends. He who initially wanted to be alone with Khalisha became corrupted because of their arrival. With a force, he sat back down. However, instead of sitting in his original place, he sat beside Khalisha.

"Your path, Niel. There is Khalisha, you forget about us" Nathan said.

"Tau nih's. Since Khalisha, you have forgotten us. To the canteen is not with us. Though we are also laper," continued Bayu nagging.

Andhika smiled and saw and heard the words of her two friends. It's funny to see them. They even look like a girl who is upset with her boyfriend.

"I'm sorry. Because of me, you're not here with Daniel" Khalisha said suddenly. He felt guilty for Daniel's friends.

Nathan and Bayu stared at Khalisha. A few seconds later, they laughed at the innocent Khalisha. They had no idea that their words would make Khalisha feel guilty.

"Well, are you sorry? They were just kidding, ", Daniel said.

"But because of me, you're not here with them. You should have been here just like them, not me. I'll bring my own provisions. I can eat in class" Khalisha replied.

Daniel scratched his non-itchy head. He doesn't know what to say to Khalisha. Khalisha took Nathan and Bayu seriously. Nathan and Bayu were joking.

Nathan, Andhika, and Bayu laugh at Daniel. Just this time, Daniel wasn't tangling with anyone. Usually when approached by a girl, Daniel will issue his words. However, only with Khalisha did Daniel's attitude become different.

"Yes, Lis. We can be together here. It's gone first" Nathan said, pretending to be upset.

Daniel immediately stared intently at his three best friends, making Nathan, Andhika, and Bayu immediately stop his laughter. They continued eating, especially Nathan. He no longer talks about anything. He chose to pretend he didn't know.

Not leaving, Daniel reopened the lid of Khalisha's food supply. He saw the contents of Khalisha's provisions as different from those of previous days. Fried rice with omelet, that's Khalisha's lunch this time. He had seen the contents of Khalisha stock which had more rice than the side dish.

"Tumben today fried rice, Lis."

"Again pengen aja," said Khalisha, then put his fried rice into his mouth.

Daniel put some meatballs in Khalisha's stock. "For you. Eat a lot."

"Thank you," he went back to eating his fried rice.

"Cie. cie is so romantic," Nathan's tease suddenly, makes Andhika and Bayu hold back laughter.

Instead of being embarrassed, Daniel snorted in annoyance. He really thinks of them as bullies. Not to mention that his frustration was gone, another bully came to his desk. Without further ado, he immediately sat down beside Khalisha.

"Lis, I think you're the same Daniel went where. Turns out to be here. If you know you brought Daniel here, I can be with you guys," said the girl who is none other than Mayang.

"I'm sorry, May" said Khalisha, stopping her eating. He also felt guilty about Mayang.

"Look easy, Lis. Don't think about it" said Mayang smiling.

Khalisha, Mayang, Andhika, Nathan, and Bayu were all ordinary. It is different with Daniel. Daniel was getting more upset. Not annoyed at his best friend and friend Khalisha, he is annoyed at himself. He was supposed to take Khalisha to the back garden of the school. There, he can be alone with Khalisha and there will be no bullies.

His two eyes then glanced at Khalisha, then sighed. Khalisha seemed comfortable with their presence. He smiled slightly at Khalisha. For this time, he would let the bullies be among them. But for the next time, he would not let a single person disturb him while together with Khalisha.
