The Real Beauty's
Friend
I walked towards the teacher's room, intending to ask Clara's home address, I don't know but my heart was moved to visit her.
Arriving in the teacher's room I met my homeroom teacher and asked Clara's address, “What for, if I could know?” ask my homeroom teacher. “Clara has been sick since yesterday, my class representative wants to visit Clara bu”, I explained.
“So. Yasudah, this is the address.” said my walikelas handed me a sheet of paper containing the address of Clara's house which he moved from Clara's profile.
After school I went to Clara's house, but I had to take three of my friends, but they didn't want to. So I went to Clara's house alone, I bought some fruit for Clara, hopefully she will get better soon.
Arriving at Clara's house, I knocked on the door a few times but there was no sign of anyone inside, I thought it was empty, I turned around intending to leave Clara's house until I heard the door open, my reflexes turned my body straight towards the door, looking like a beautiful woman? ‘what is Clara's older sister?’ thought
The woman looked at me from top to bottom, “Who to look for?” ask her. “Clanya exists? I am a classmate, my name is Riyant.” I replied introducing myself.
I saw him smiling happily, and letting me in and telling me to sit on the sofa in your living room, I then sat myself on the sofa and looked around Clara's house, so neat and well-groomed.
While the woman went to the back – towards the kitchen – she then returned with a glass of water in her hand and placed it on the table that was in front of me, I smiled in gratitude.
“Rarely any friend Clara to home,” she said, “Ah yes, I forgot. I am Mia, mother of Clara.” she said introducing herself.
I was a little surprised, because she looked so young, she smiled at me which I replied with a clumsy smile, feeling awkward at the thought that she was Clara's older sister.
“Wait here I call Clara first yes,” she said then left me in the living room alone.
(POV Riyant Off)
Mia moves from the living room sofa to Clara's room, when she arrives at Clara's room, Mia sees Clara still lying down playing mobile phone. “Honey, there is your friend below,” said Mia on Clara's bedroom doorstep, leaving Clara confused.
Wonder, friend? A long time no friends ever come to his house, but why is there anyone who ‘confesses’ friend Clara came to the house?
“Who's mom? I ... I don't even have any friends,” replied Clara, “There, it's under she's waiting for you. Quickly meet,” said his mother approached Clara and stroked Clara's short hair, Clara was still confused wonder ‘who is my friend?’ thought.
Clara immediately moved and tidied up her appearance, then went down, towards the living room as her mother had instructed.
“Riyant?” clara asked to confirm, when she reached the living room. Hearing his name called Riyant turned to Clara and moved from his seat and smiled warmly at Clara. “Hai.” greet Riyant, Clara approaches Riyant.
“Hai also sat down,” Clara said, they sat on the living room couch Clara, “This, I have a little parcel,” Riyant said giving the fruits he bought on the road. Clara received it “Thanks.”
“How are you doing?” asked Riyant, “It has improved,” replied Clara smiling happily, of course she is very happy because this is the first time she was visited by a friend.
“You missed some subjects. Are you going to school tomorrow?” ask Riyant. “Yes I know I'm lagging behind, I'm going after him. I think tomorrow I'm going to school,” Clara replied,
“If you still can't get to school, it's okay to rest first,” Riyant's advice, Clara shook her head slowly. “Later I lagged further,” reply.
“I will teach you, later I will come here, we learn together. You want?” riyant asked, Clara looked surprised. “Serious?” asked, Riyant nodded with a smile. “Thank you Riyant, you're so kind. I'm grateful,” said Clara, “Sure, I'm your friend.” said Riyant pleased.
Clara smiled “I'm happy, finally I have a friend,” said Clara lirih whispered almost inaudible, but Riyant can still hear it, Riyant's smile loosened “What do you mean Clara?”
“Umm. I, never had a friend before. No one wants to be friends with me, because I'm ugly, fat, black really doesn't deserve a friend.” Clara replied.
“Everyone likes canitk” girl reply Clara, “Physical can be foxed, but dark heart is hard to clear. Stay a good and smart girl Clara, you have to be so to face the world in the future” Riyant said. Clara looked at Riyant, thinking that there was a point in Riyant's words.
They then chatted with each other and knew each other, Riyant also taught some subjects that had been missed by Clara because Clara was sick.
A few days passed, Riyant and Clara were getting closer, the more Riyant's day became more aware of the fact that Clara was being run over by her classmates, Riyant always tried to protect Clara and stay next to Clara.
Not a few are also many who make bad comments about Riyant, especially Andi, Farhan and Yoga who stay away from Riyant, because they feel Riyant's appetite is very low, why would he want to be with Clara?
Clara was worried and felt very guilty for Riyant, because Riyant was friends with him so he had no friends
“Riyant, why do you want to be friends with me? You will no longer have friends because you are always with me. You were as far away as I was,” asked Clara once, at break time only the two of them were in class so Clara asked Riyant so. Riyant smiled in response to Clara's question
“For what are friends with toxic people? It was only self-harm” he replied, Clara fell silent, then re-occupied herself with reading the novel, while Riyant played games with his phone, half an hour of silence hit them, suddenly Riyant called Clara. “Clara?” Riyant calls, Clara turns “ya Riyant?”
“You've been to time zone?” riyant asked, Clara shook her head. “I never leave home alone or with friends, I go only with my mother,” he replied, Riyant fell silent and asked “How about we go to time zone on Sunday?” Clara turned her head she thought for a moment, she was afraid of public places actually.
“Entahlah.” replied Clara hanging, “Tenak, I will always be beside you,” said Riyant, “I'm not sure.” said Clara. “Alright if you don't want to,” said Riyant gave up a little, he just wanted to make Clara happy actually.
“Sorry” reply Clara, “Indeed, what did you do on Sunday?” asked Riyant to divert.
Clara closed her novel and thought “umm .. Nothing interesting, most I made my video that was making up,” replied Clara. Riyant round the eyes “woah, you're a beauty vlogger?” ask Riyant.
Clara shook her head wrong way “Ah no. I can't be a beauty vlogger. Because, yes, there is no beauty vlogger like me,” said Clara.
“Oh come on, you can do it. I want to see you vlog, can I go to your house?” asked Riyant, “I'm ashamed” said Clara, looking a reddish tinge on her cheek.
“You have nothing to be ashamed of, you have to be confident. Let's prove, I will support you,” said Riyant smiled “By?” ask her again. Clara nodded.
“Baik” said Riyant, just then the school bell rang indicating the lesson time will be started.
...****************...
On Sunday, Riyant was already at Clara's house, they were in the room where Clara used to vlog at home, Riyant noticed Clara vlogging, he was amazed, according to Riyant, Clara is very cool, she is also very good at making up, the make up that Clara makes is amazingly cool.
When finished making the video, Riyant approached Clara, he was looking to clean the results of his makeup. “Wait, do not delete” said Riyant stopped the activity of Clara who was pouring micellar water into cotton,
“Why?” clara asked confused, “Can I take a photo with you? For a memento,” asked Riyant, Clara fell silent. “I was never confident when taking pictures, the results must be ugly,” Clara said. “No, you are beautiful” Riyant said, while setting up the camera on his phone.
Without Riyant realizing his words even make Clara misbehaved, only this time Clara was praised beautiful other than by her mother. Riyant asked for permission to take pictures again, and Clara allowed it.
Lunch hours on Sunday took place, now Riyant is having lunch with Clara and her mother, Mia – mother Clara – is very happy, finally Clara can have friends, Clara, Mia thought Riyant was really sincere about being friends with Clara,
‘hopefully this is a good start for Clara and so on will always be good’ Inner Mia saw the closeness of her son with a new friend. From that moment Mia gave Clara a long story of lebae to Riyant, sometimes they laughed together, whether what they were talking about, but according to Mia, it was a very extraordinary sight.
