The Metamorphosis Of Vani

Mysterious Sounds

A beautiful morning on the shortcut. Cold air enveloped the tea plantation. The sound of birds singing enliven the atmosphere of the morning, welcoming the emergence of the sun. As usual the workers had come by carrying his basket, preparing to pick young tea leaves.

With a black backpack and a printed book held in her left arm a girl eagerly walked down the hollowed-out asphalt road.

Across the road there is a bridge, under which flows a fairly large river, the water is clear and clean. From a distance the mothers were washing clothes, while the little ones were happily playing with the water. Sometimes there was a cry from one of the mothers who was warning her son a little not to play too much into the middle. Although the current is not so swift but at any time can sweep their small bodies so parents must always be vigilant when bringing their children to the River.

At a crossroads Vani waits for a girl who is also attending the same school. It's been a week that Vani did not walk alone on the shortcut, he is now accompanied by Lucy his classmate. Lucy has a body that is not too high, her face is cute and there are dimples on the left as her trademark when she smiles. Lucy comes from a simple family, her parents are just tea pickers on a plantation owned by Siska's parents. Lucy is a quiet girl, her academic grades at school are pretty good. She is a diligent student. Although her body is small, she is very agile to move.

Although they walk together every day to school, they must pretend not to know each other while at school. Vani doesn't want Lucy to get run over from Siska. Siska has banned all children in the class from being friends with Vani.

"If anyone dares to befriend the rhino Vani! You're gonna get the stones! Understand!" Siska said when Vani just entered school.

All the students obeyed what Siska said, although some of them were actually happy with Vani. Vani is very kind and helpful. Since Vani took treatment with Rin's doctor, little by little Vani found his true identity.

Upon arriving at the final ramp before the gate, they parted ways, Vani deliberately walked a little far from Lucy so that no Siska gang saw their closeness.

At the break, Vani who was sitting next to the class suddenly heard a mysterious voice, the voice was like the sound of people crying and came from behind the class. The fur of Vani immediately stood up, his body goosebumps and shakes

Vani was very afraid just in case it was a ghostly voice or something, because the other day when he was in the school toilet, he accidentally heard a story from one of the students, he said,that this place is a former cemetery, which was later converted into a school. It is said that during the construction of this class there are still many bones that are still left found by the workers.

Gathering courage, Vani approaches the source of the voice. Behind the walls of the classroom he saw a girl crying. Vani heaved a sigh of relief, she was grateful that the mysterious voice was not the Ghost in broad daylight.

"Huh.. Thankfully It's not a ghost."

Slowly Vani approached her and asked her how she was doing. But how surprised Vani after knowing that the crying girl is his own best friend, Lucy. Seeing Vani near him, the girl immediately embraced and told him all the events that she had experienced. Lucy was so scared she couldn't speak properly.

Apparently Siska Lovers has bullied Lucy the quiet girl..

Although he said he was not okay but from the look of his face said that he was not okay. There were bruised slaps on his cheeks, disheveled hair from being grabbed and a few buttons off because of the pull.

Her tears kept coming out unstoppable. Vani is furious to see her best friend being treated harshly by Siska.

"What's he?" Search Vani.

Lucy didn't say a word, she just nodded her head.

"Why?" Added Vani.

"Ka.because I'm friends with you!" Answer Lucy. "Say he'll fire my parents if I stay friends with you" he added.

Lucy's parents work on a plantation owned by Siska's parents, which is why Lucy is so afraid that her parents are fired from her workplace, because the job is her parents' only source of livelihood.

Without a second thought Vani immediately stood up and looked for Siska in every corner of the class.

"Where are you going?" Ask Lucy scared.

"Udah Van, no! I'm afraid! Huh!" Prevent Lucy.

But Vani ignored Lucy's words. Vani continues to search for Siska in every corner of the school but does not find her. Finally Vani is looking out of school.

"Liat Siska?" Vani asked a student while pointing towards the Canteen. Apparently Siska Lovers is in the cafeteria outside the school.

"Noh in the cafeteria" he replied.

Getting the answer, Vani ran up to Siska Lovers sitting in the cafeteria, they were joking with each other. Without a second thought, Vani immediately poured iced tea on Siska's face. Siska's wet hair and clothes were exposed to iced tea. Siska was very surprised to get such treatment from Vani. He did not expect, a Vani dared to do this to him. Siska had not yet spoken Vani directly snapped at him.

"If you have a problem with me, don't involve Lucy!" Vani said as she held her index finger right in front of Siska's face.

"What's wrong if someone wants to be friends with me!" Added Vani.

All the students looked towards Vani, they did not expect that Vani would do such a thing to Siska. The average of them praised Vani's bravery.

"Nj*rrrr cool as well as the Vani" whispered one of the students.

"Mampus you!" Bump another student to Siska.

"Harp Van!" Shouted another student.

Hearing the whispers from the other students, Siska became increasingly angry, her face flushed red and her eyes bulged. Then, as much as his energy pushed Vani down. Full of emotion he doused Vani's body with iced tea and noodle sauce. His friends do what Siska does. With anger they trample Vani's body.

"STOP!" Siska's orders to her gangmate.

Then Siska squatted down and pulled Vani's hair "Oh! So now the rhino dares to fight me? you nantangin me?"

Vani looked at Siska with a sharp look, as if he was pouncing on a prey.

"Heh don't ever interfere in my affairs. Understand!!" Jerky Siska.

When Vani's body was kicked and trampled by Siska and friends, not a single tear came out of Vani's eye. There he grew more furious with Siska's actions.

"Aarrrrggghhhhh..!!!" As vigorously as Vani tried to get up and began to push Siska, his body clashed at the table, his collar pulled up while saying, "You! Don't ever test my patience again! I'm sick of your treatment all along! You can treat me like an animal! But not with my best friend Lucy! Understand!" Vani Seru.

From a distance came Lucy and Lucky. Apparently Lucy told Lucky everything. Without a second thought Lucky broke the two, and held Vani's hand that almost slapped Siska's smooth cheek.

"Udah Van! Huh!" Lucky Exclamation.

"You Siska! Until when are you going to keep going like this? There is no boredom you make a troublemaker! You are a Siska woman! Can you change your bad behavior!" Lucky says.

"Urus is your own business!" Siska answered and left them.

"Dissolve!" Lucky cried to the other children. Instantly they disbanded while continuing to chatter about Vani's courage against Siska.

Lucy runs towards Vani and tightly hugs her best friend. "I told you, no! But you didn't hear! Look at you getting dirty all this way!" Ocehniah.

"Hadeh Grandma started nagging again right!" Vani Ledek.

"You know if you know…." He had not yet finished his words Lucy's tears broke.

He hugged his best friend back. "Thank you Van" he said.

"Yes, that's it! It turns out that here I just made it a display!" Lucky's jealous exclaim.

"Ohhh my best friend!" Vani and the three of them hugged.

It has been a week Vani Vs Siska story became a trending topic. Even other children do not hesitate to start to say hello to Vani.

One day, Lucy cries because her parents are fired from her workplace. Apparently Siska wasn't messing around with threats. While sitting in front of the class, He told Vani everything.

"Either Van, if I am also confused, now my parents are unemployed where my sister is still small, not to mention the youngest who is still 2 years old still need diapers and milk."

Hearing the story of his best friend Vani became very pity. "I'm sorry Lus" said Vani.

"It's not your fault Van's time either!" Answer Lucy. "Our part is the same, we don't have any friends at this school. I'm sure my dad will get another job." Added.

"Aamiin" said Vani.

"How about if you work at my job?" The word Bimbim that suddenly appeared from behind Vani. "Bokap Lo still powering the goods mikul? If you still tell me tomorrow to the cave bokap. There's a lot of work. Ntar nyokap Lo told to come to the cave house to clean the house. Coincidentally nyokap again nyari household assistant." Add Bimbim.

"Look…"

"It's not Lus' job" asked Bimbim as if he did not care about Vani's words.

"I…"

"Don't…!!" vani interrupts Lucy's words.

"It takes a lot!" Exclaimed Lucy who from earlier the talk was interrupted by Vani.

"Yes tomorrow to the house, the cave that takes care of everything" Bimbim said as he passed.

"I want to! What if at work? You know Bimbim like his son!" Celeste Vani.

"Relax, Bimbim is naughty but he is polite to older people. There's no way he's got my parents Vani." Lucy said to calm Vani down.

Since the incident the other day, Vani became wrong if he met Bimbim. He could not control himself, he wanted to be noticed by him, but Bimbim's attitude was very cold and as if nothing had ever happened between them. Bimbim like not knowing Vani let alone come to Vani's house.

Vani's heart felt sore, like being slashed by a knife. His chest was tight, like there was a rock stuck in it. He misjudged Bimbim, so he thought Bimbim a good and polite child, but now he believes that Bimbim is an arrogant person. Imperious. Obstinately. Cold-hearted.

"Basic rock!" Umpat Vani's.

The next day on Sunday morning, after all his duties were done Vani asked permission to mamah. He wants to go play at Lucy's house.

"Well, today Vani can't go to Lucy's house?"

Vani told many stories about his best friend to mama. And mommy responds well to their friendship. Even more mamah has met Lucy a few days ago, when mamah and Vani deliver vegetable orders to Lucy's neighbors. Since Lucy's neighbor ordered vegetables to mamah, now mamah has rarely gone to the market. Therefore, you spend more time in the garden behind the house.

"May, but don't be so late in the afternoon!" Mamah.

"Ready boss!" Vani exclaimed with passion.

"Okaya bring vegetables for mamahnya Lucy yes, make souvenirs" he added while offering a packet of vegetables.

"Oh! Ok mah!" Vani left first huh mah." Vani said while kissing mamah's cheek.

Mamah deliberately brought the results of her garden for the souvenirs of Lucy's family, although only eggplant, kale and young corn some seeds, at least it can make a happy who receives.

Vani walks down a shortcut that he often passes, no matter how long he arrives at Lucy's house. From a distance he saw Lucy and her parents in front of the house, they looked neat as if they were going somewhere. The curious Vani also sped up his path.

"Lucy! Where you going?" Vani asked as she adjusted her panting breath.

"It wants to nganter mother and father to the house of Bimbim, which the other day he nawarin work, only now can there" said Lucy.

"Oh yeah! So how's my dong?" Vani said a little disappointed.

"Yes, come here." Take Lucy.

"You dong!" Vani Seru. "Oya Aunty there is a deposit from mamah for Auntie" said Vani while handing over her luggage.

"Why bother this?" Said mother.

"Ah don't really Mak" replied Vani shyly.

After the mother received the package from the mother and kept it in the kitchen, they left the house. The trip to Bimbim's house is not too far away, so we chose to walk. In addition, Lucy's parents have no other vehicle other than the old-fashioned onthel bicycle belonging to the father.

After about a 30-minute walk, Vani's entourage and Lucy's family arrive at Bimbim's house. A two-story whitewashed mansion, the house protected with a high iron fence was standing gallantly in front of them.

This house has a fairly spacious yard, in which there are various ornamental plants, cypress trees and also a fish pond filled with various color ornamental fish. It is very typical of the homes of the rich in the movies.

Before entering the fence, we must pass through a security post guarded by security guards. Courteously, he asked for permission to enter. Looks like you're being questioned by the security guard. And shortly after getting an answer from my father, Satpam also let us in.

"Wow, it's a great house!" Vani muttered.

"Yes Van, good! If we're here, it's like we're going into a palace." Whisper Lucy as she enters the courtyard.

From a distance a middle-aged man was sitting reading a newspaper on the balcony next to the house. Being in this big house we were confused. Due to confusion, the father approached the man.

After talking for a while, my father called us to come closer.

"Here!" His orders were half whispered.

We came closer and he said, "Supply sir, this is my wife and this is my biggest son, if this one is her friend." Said father introducing himself.

"Come on shaman." Command again.

We also shook hands with the man.

"Greetings know ya." Friendly greeting the man.

Not long after, Bimbim was seen coming out of his house.

"Eh Bim! Is this father what you mean?" Ask the man.

"Oh yes pah, those whom Bimbim refers to." Answer Bimbim.

Apparently the man was Papah Bimbim. His face looks very friendly and nice. He said he was soft and full of authority. Distinct from his son Bimbim, nakal, jail and slengean.

"What are you doing here?" Bimbim Tegur to Vani. "Yes your head?" Ledek.

"No, I'm just going with them!" Vani answered nervously.

"You're in class, right? Yes, if so, you enter first, you will talk about work with your parents" said papah Bimbim.

"Bim, take his friend in."

Hearing his papa's orders, Bimbim immediately invites Vani and Lucy into the house. The house is big and spacious. There are a lot of luxury items inside. Large and tall curtains were attached there. Vani has never seen a house this big other than on TV. But now he could see for real with his eyes. Usually, if in films such a big house, filled with evil in-laws in his son-in-law, who could hurt and torture him. Suddenly the feathers of Vani immediately stood up to remember him.

"Buck!" Vani Seru.

"Apaan ha ha hi!" Bimbim.

"Yes, you sit here first!" Bimbim said allowing the two girls to sit on the sofa.

The two girls immediately sat down without saying a word. The sofa was very soft, more cushioned than Vani's cotton mattress in the room. He wanted to put his body there. But it's impossible, because it's a sofa not a bed.

For a moment, Vani and Lucy looked at each other and at the same time smiled, as if they felt the same way.

Before long they sat down, Lucky suddenly appeared from the upper room.

"Hi Van! Hi Lus! What's here?" He shouted from above while running down the stairs.

"Have you long? Which bimbim?" Added.

"Emm I'm sure Lucy came here to meet Bimbim, she said there's work." Answer Vani

"I can't believe you guys got here." Lucky said with a happy face.

When they were busy chatting, Bimbim did not come and join in their chat. Vani does not expect to meet Lucky here, he does not know if Lucky is Bimbim's half-brother.
