The Black Riding Prince

13 Love in Silence

AMI occasionally steals glances at Randu, sometimes, when he glances at the guy next to him their eyes collide. And it succeeded in making him smile amusedly. I like to look at it too.

Ami flicked her long hair that was stroked. Randu glanced silently. Ami knew and immediately clasped her mouth holding a laugh.

During the break Ami was silent in the classroom, until all the class residents had all gone out and lived Ami and Randu. The two of them did not budge from their seats.

"Lo ga to the cafeteria?" Tanya Ami opened the chat while opening her lunch box.

"Ga."

Short is the answer. Ami was shaking her lips. "You want to eat?" Ami thrust his provisions on Randu.

Randu looked at Ami who was nodding. Rejected how do you look sad or hurt anyway?

"Why? Relax, I do not give poison or pellets to let you accept me. The suwer!" Ami held up her index and middle fingers while smiling.

"Ga, make it."

"Lo really isn't a laper? Ga pa-pa really, I like to eat a box of both equally lo. Let me refuse." Ami's words were made as relaxed as possible.

Randu was silent.

"Cock diem anyway!? I want to eat both!" Ami again offered his box again.

"Fast cave." Finally the answer came out of Randu's lips.

"Fast!? Seriously!?" Ami asked in surprise. "Gee... Bener-bener the ideal priest candidate.." Ami propped up her chin while looking at Randu with a beautiful smile.

Being stared at like that makes Randu misbehave, he looks clumsy and dead style. Ami held back a laugh at Randu's behavior. I think only girls can salting, it turns out guys can too. Funnier even. Hihah..

"Lo ngetawain me?"

"Ga. I'm again interested, try to accept me. I must be prancing around rich perari horses." Ami's smile grew wider.

Randu smiled faintly at Ami's outspoken chatter.

Ami smiled at the faint smile covered by the boy beside her. "Today I saw your smile. Your smile is expensive, right?"

Hearing Ami's words, Randu immediately closed his mouth tightly.

Ami laughed lightly. "So, am I accepted? You were smiling, before you were also salting right?"

"No punches!" Randu's decision has been unanimous to reject Ami.

Ami also raised her lips. "So you can refuse me the third time?"

Sandu just kept quiet, not answering anything.

"OK, fix. I was rejected a third time. Grieve.." Ami did not bother Randu anymore, he focused on eating the supplies he brought from home. "Sori ya if I eat in front of you. But I'm not a demon anymore seduced people who fast. I just godnya lo as Randu to be my guy, but rejected. Yes already. If I am sad again I carry a mulu laper."

Ami ate his litchi rice solemnly. Randu glanced at Ami who was eating. So girls have no jaim-jaim in front of guys. Pandu shook his head and focused on reading books, ignoring Ami who was cool eating beside him.

"Official.... Lo kok's..." Cici stopped her screams as she entered Ami's class and saw that there were only Ami and Randu in the classroom. Cici smiled stiffly and waved at Randu.

"Lo anyway.." Leni's whisper is behind Cici.

"Where do I know." Tweet back whispering.

"Sori's... We're disturbing, aren't we?" Ask Leni carefully.

"No, just relax. We're not dating anymore because I was rejected again." Said Ami casually while continuing to eat.

Leni and Cici looked at each other, they did not expect that Ami would be that relaxed when her love was rejected for the third time.

"What's wrong?" Ask Ami with a mouth full of rice.

"So we want nanya, why don't you go to the cafeteria?" Answer Cici.

"Gue forgot to tell you both if starting today I bring stock."

Cici immediately sat in front of Ami. "Since when do you want to bring bekel? Usually also you are the most ogah bring bekel."

"Can't you?" Ask Leni.

"Well! Anyway, if it's my mom, I should be able to. You see, the mother of the number wahid."

"So you bring bekel told by your mother?" Ask Cici.

Ami nodded while swallowing her food. "Lo want to know why?"

Leni and Cici nodded compactly like wayang golek.

"Emak says, you kudu irit, Mi. Lo kudu bring bekel every day so that no snacks at school, the money can be lo tube to buy cosmetics ama clothes. Let's get you to gaet the kinclong!" Said Ami imitating his mother. "Ga know him if the kinclong he means has rejected his son ampe three times."

Randu was stunned to hear Ami's chattering. He had stopped reading because he knew the meaning of Ami's words, that the so-called kinclong by Ami's mother was him.

"But you're not sad, Mi?" Ask Cici again.

"And from yesterday I said, I don't want to be Jones!" Ami drank water from a bottle she brought from home.

***

Days change week, weeks change month. Ami was initially close to Reno, but Ami's heart could not lie if there was still the Black Horse Prince inside. So Ami began to move away from Reno. Moreover, Reno was busy facing the final exam, so Ami could give an excuse to stay away from her upperclassman.

But unfortunately, the Black Horse Prince was getting closer to the kuntilanak. Ami often caught the two creatures while walking in the school garden. Long time I swear you have real kuntilanak possession!

Ami could only silently look at their closeness, she was already determined if she would not tease Randu anymore. He was not rejected for the fourth time. The pain is here.

Because he felt he had obtained Randu, Sesil became more and more. His treatment of Ami is getting more crazy and insulting. Ami was silent not because she was afraid. Remember that! Ami brave and barbaric girl! Only, Ami did not hear it herself. He knew from his other friends about Sesil who always ugly him. It would be different if he heard it himself. To be sure, he would not be daunted even though his opponent was getting more barbaric because he would be more barbaric than the opponent.

Ami, who usually eats her lunch in class, today chose to eat it in the school garden. He was sitting on a chair under an Acacia tree. Leni and Cici choose to bring their food from the cafeteria to the school garden so they can accompany Ami.

"Tomorrow don't bring bekel, Mi." Cici Remark.

"Emang why?" Ask Ami wonder.

"Tomorrow, I'll treat you to the cafeteria!"

Ami and Leni cheered, "Horeee!"

"The treat is to comfort a broken heart." Again and again, Sesil was always present among the three of them.

"Astaghfiullah!" Surprise Cici. "Lo long ago could be kuntilanak really yes! Suddenly nongol, suddenly saying!" Omel Cici's.

"Eh, you realize, he feels rich, doesn't he? He was always nongol suddenly when he was not picked up and he always went so he did not ask to be taken. Ahaha.." Ami wails Cici.

"Yes too.Haha..."

Trio Kiyut laughed mockingly at Sesil..

"Don't say anything! And lo!" Show Sesil to Ami. "Don't deletin my boy anymore! I don't like my boys!"

"Cowok lo who? Toto?" Ami pretended not to know.

"iihi... I'm the same as Toto! Yes, it is Randu!"

"Ooo..."

Sesil was increasingly upset with Ami because of his lure so that Ami was angry failed. He finally left.

"That's it, if you're cornered, always run away!" Ami's exclaim made Sesil even more upset and kicked a stone on the ground.

Trio Kiyut laughs instead to see Sesil who they think like a little child who is sulking.

"Lo really, Mi, won't you get to Randu again?" Leni and Ami asked.

"Entar the kuntilanak more and more rampant lela, Mi." Cici Remark.

"He's getting more and more lela ya barin. For sure, if he bullies me, I won't be colonized. But when it comes to Randu, I am ashamed to pile up because again rejected him. For sure I can still steal a look at diem-diem."
