The bell rang exactly at half-two in the afternoon, indicating the lesson time was over. Some of the students seemed to be cheering, impatient to want to leave the boring school immediately. One by one, students started to leave their classes. Some are clustered, some are walking alone.
Meanwhile, Ara's class was packing, preparing to go home.
"Today's been picked up, Ra?" ask Sarah, Ara's classmate.
"No, Sar. You see, my brother is still in the hospital" Ara replied as she put the book in the bag.
"What is your brother sick of, Ra? how did you get to the hospital?"
"It's not. Today, right, sister Sania gave birth, so bang Samsul must be able to take care of his administration" explained Ara.
"Oh." Sarah nodded in understanding.
After everything was sorted out, the two of them left the class. The two walked together with some of his other friends.
"Let me not be picked up, we go for a walk, yuk, Sar," Ara asked.
"Where to? I'm just come on," said Sarah.
"Emmm, where's it going?" said Ara fondling.
"Where are you going to my house, Ra? you've never been to my place" Sarah suggested.
"Eh, yes, Sar. Yes, yes, if so," said Ara agreed.
"okay." Ara and Sarah continued to move forward, leaving the place where they were studying.
That afternoon the sun was very hot. Ara and Sarah take shelter under a mango tree growing on the shoulder of the road. While waiting for public transportation, both discuss many things. Starting from the subjects to gossiping some students passing in front of him. Especially the male students who they thought were handsome.
"Near!" scream someone.
Hearing her name, Ara turned her head, looking for the source of the voice. And how surprised he was when he found someone who called his name. There, across the street. A well-dressed man was waving his hand at her.
"Sir Dion!" mummified Ara. He narrowed his net, making sure of his vision. Apparently he did not see wrong. Yes, the man wearing the sky blue shirt was indeed Dion.
Sarah followed her friend's view. He could see a tall man leaning against the car with a smile on his face.
"Who is he, Ra?" tanyakanya.
Ara bergeming. He continued to look at Dion who began to step with his feet, approaching towards him.
Not finished with the unexpected arrival of Dion, suddenly another surprise came back to Ara. Farhan, the handsome man who had stolen his heart suddenly appeared before him.
"Hi, Inara!"
"Hi, Ara!"
Two voices from two different people greeted Ara simultaneously. The two men were none other than Farhan and Dion. The two look at each other. The two of them stood in rows, right in front of Ara.
What's the matter? why did the two of them come here, Inner Ara. He looked uncomfortable as everyone was now staring at him.
"Hey, why are you quiet? they both greeted you" whispered Sarah, nudging Ara who was still stunned.
Ara turned to Sarah for a moment. He looked back at the two men in front of him.
"Hi, Brother Farhan. Hi too, Brother Dion," he said alternately.
Both Farhan and Dion were silent. Maybe the two are still waiting for one of them to talk first, so as not to be the same as before.
Sarah again nudged Ara, gave the code.
Ara who had understood the character of her friend immediately understood.
"Oh, yes, meet Sarah, my friend," Ara told Farhan and Dion.
Sarah tried to smile as sweetly as possible. Although in reality it looks strange.
Dion turned his head for a moment, nodding his head at Sarah. Then I looked back at Ara.
Unlike Dion who looked at Sarah expressionlessly, Farhan actually put on a friendly face. The man smiled, revealing his neatly arranged white teeth.
"Hi, Sarah," he said. Yes, the handsome man did not forget to greet him.
Sarah was instantly fascinated by him.
Geez.. It's good-looking, friendly, again. Her smile was so sweet, again. Sugar just loses sweet, I guess.
Actually, it's not only Sarah who is fascinated by Farhan's good looks. But almost all the women who saw it at that time, including Ara. Yes, for the umpteenth time, the girl was again bewitched by the good looks of the man who was now wearing the black shirt.
"Oh, yes, Brother Dion, introduce you as well.., this is Kak Farhan."
"And Brother Farhan, meet this Brother Dion, a friend of Samsul's bang."
"Dion."
"Farhan." Dion and Farhan took turns. The two shook hands with piercing gazes at each other, as if competing. Then take off each other's hands.
"Oh, yes, let's go home, Inara," Dion asked as he grabbed the girl's hand.
Farhan looked at him, not liking. While Ara frowned.
"Ah, your brother asked me to pick you up. That's why I came here" Dion explained.
"Most Samsul?" ask Ara.
Dion nodded.
Inevitably Ara also followed Dion's invitation. Because he cannot argue when it comes to the orders of the brother.
"But wait a minute, brother," he said, taking off Dion's grip. He looked at Farhan.
"What's up, brother? is there anything you want to say?" ask him about the meaning of Farhan's arrival.
Farhan scratched his non-itchy head. The original goal was to bring Ara home together. However, because Dion first invited the girl, so he chose to look for another reason. It feels prestige if he admits to having the same reason as Dion. And in the end he lost. Because Ara would have preferred to go home with Dion.
"Em, I happened to be passing by here and accidentally saw you. So I decided to say hello while asking for my jacket. Did you bring it?"
"Ah, I'm sorry, brother. I didn't know we were going to meet you here, so I didn't bring it, '" Ara said.
"Yes already, it's okay. Maybe next time" said Farhan, smiling.
"One more time I'm sorry, sister," said Ara.
"That's okay, there's no need to think about it."
"Then I go first, Ara" said Farhan.
"Yes, be careful, brother," said Ara.
Farhan nodded. He turned his body and walked over to his motor. After that, it passed with a disappointed heart.
So too with Ara. The girl also felt heavy when removing Farhan's departure. He kept staring at her, until the male figure completely disappeared from the reach of his eyes.
"Come," Dion again invites Ara to leave immediately.
Ara looked at Sarah who was still standing beside her.
"I'm sorry, Sarah. Today I haven't been able to stop by the house" Ara said before leaving.
Sarah smile. He can understand. His friend could not refuse if it was about the orders of his brother.
"It's okay, Ra. Go."
"All right, see you tomorrow, tomorrow" Ara said, waving her hand.
"Yes. See you," said Sarah. The girl returned the hand of her friend.
Ara and Dion walked together. Dion looked like a sumringah, because he was able to get back together with the woman who made his heart pound.
Ara was uncomfortable. Because dozens of eyes were staring at him. Not a few of them teased him.
"Cie-cie..," the cheers of some of his friends. Sontak Ara quickened his pace, ahead of Dion.
Dion chuckled at the little girl's behavior.
"Near!" call Dion to Ara who keeps on stepping.
Ara. "Why?" ketus. He was upset because Dion was walking so slow. Even the man stopped in front of his horde of friends.
"The car is here" Dion said, pointing to his car.
"Aish! why didn't he say that from earlier," murmured Ara. He returned to the car he had driven.
Dion was ready to open the door for Ara. That way when Ara gets in.
"Thank you" Ara said as she sat in the front seat.
"Together." Dion closed the car door again. Then drive around the car and get inside. He sat behind the wheel, next to Ara. Dion started the car engine, ready to go. Slowly he began to advance it, splitting the streets quite densely.
