I never thought he would feel this kind of feeling. A thumping feeling awaited an announcement that proved an accomplishment for him. He thought this feeling would only be felt by intelligent people like me, but in fact anyone could feel this feeling, when they bring out the best potential that is in them.
The handsome teenager with a tense face, sat on one of the audience benches with Riko. They are among the hundreds of people who are participants of this game festival. A man was speaking on the stage of honor. The Japanese man looks excited trying to arouse the spirit of the contest participants who are looking forward to anxiously waiting for the reading of the results of the jury assessment.
With his fluent English the man talked about some of the positive benefits of a good game. Starting from training one's focus, adding social networks between players, improving brain performance, increasing career opportunities and of course where to practice solving problems.
That is why they will net a game that is worth playing and benefits its players not just entertainment that spends time causing its players to be addicted to games that do not impact any positive value.
At this point, the participants applauded. It is true that it should not be just any game that they pass and become superior. They have to decide which games are worthy of attention and are worth playing with by the game lovers of the world.
The speech ended and at this time the MCs had started to allude to the issue of the winner's reading. As she gets more tense, Riko gets restless. The two teenagers were encouraging each other.
“Lo quiet Kal, whatever the result is the best for lo.” Very wise Riko cheered, even though he himself was tired waiting for the results to be read.
“Iya, I know.” That was Kala's answer. He took a breath and threw it away repeatedly, in order to calm his stifling heart.
One by one, they began to be read.
“Here we go, The Winner of international festival games, second batch, number three, Ryota from Japan!” The sound of the MCs echoed with thunderous applause throughout the room. Kala and Riko clapped their hands to release the anxiety and tension. It felt even more tense as a petite man climbed onto the stage.
“Number two, Nimuel from Philippines.” The second person took to the stage, a man who was sitting not far from Kala during the competition. Hah, the heart of Kala is getting kembis course. Cold sweat poured down his back until his hands were so wet.
“Number one, please welcome, Kalantara Aksa Yudhistira from Indonesia!” Again the sound of applause rumbled.
“AAAKKKKKK, congratulations bro! Lo win!” Riko hugged and ruffled her best friend's hair when Kala's name was called by the MC.
Kala's face instantly turned pale and his body trembled. He didn't think he would be the winner. He still pecked in Riko's arms patting her on the back to encourage his best friend.
“Okey, please welcome Mr. Kalantara.” The MC called Kala's name.
“Oh, yes!” Kala soon woke up. He took off his embrace from Riko, tidied up his clothes and headed towards the stage. Kala also tidied her hair and rubbed her handsome face. Several pairs of eyes glanced at the handsome teenager, especially the girls. His handsome and authoritative figure did attract anyone's attention.
"My soul, my soul!" Riko says with jumawa.
With her cold style, Kala ignored every glance that was fixed on her. Down there he nodded his respects to the jury and went up on stage.
“My Friend, he is my friend.” Again Riko said with laughter to everyone who looked at him. It felt so proud to see Kala standing on stage and receiving her first award. Not forgetting he pulled out his cell phone and recorded Kala's first sacred moment. His hands trembled with joy.
After listening to the championship, Kala was asked to enter a room to sign an exclusive contract with a large company, the race organizer. The games will be developed and marketed internationally. Not only that, Kala also got an offer of educational scholarships in gamers' special schools, ranging from Nihon Kogakuin college in Japan, to, University is southern in California, United States to Sheridan College Trafalgar Road campus in Canada, as well as several other schools in and outside the country.
Kala was confused by the offer. Just this time he felt that he was in the spotlight of an achievement. The offer given was not playful and of course added pride for him.
At night, Kala decided to go home. As promised, he returned home on his last flight at about half-hour six in the afternoon. On the way he made a video call with Kinanti and Lukman. The two people laughed happily even shed happy tears upon hearing Kala's achievement.
“Kereenn!!” The hoarse voice of Lukman is full of pride. He held out his two thumbs for Kala who looked very happy.
“Thank you Dad, this is also thanks to Father and Kinan.” support Reveal the teenager with pride. He felt what the meaning of a Kala who was labeled a bad boy and considered as a useless child. He would not have gotten to this point had he not met people who were so persistent in encouraging him and giving him confidence.
Lukman smiled haru. Kala could see Lukman's teary eyes staring at Kala's face. Unfortunately their togetherness must be interrupted by a call to board the plane that sounds echoing.
“Dad, Kinan, we'll talk later. I ride first, later until Jakarta I was told,” said Kala.
“Yes, be careful on the road,” Kimpal Kinanti as he waved his hand. Look, his face is so bright and full of happiness.
The call was interrupted and Kala immediately boarded the plane with Riko. They looked for their seats and immediately sat there.
“Crazy yes, lo first ngabarin Kinanti same bokapnya compared to bokap lo own. He should have first you tell, let him already shrink the potential of lo.” Riko gave a pretty slapping comment if heard by Yudhistira.
Little smile when she heard the words of her best friend. “Gue doesn't care about her response. The most important thing now is the happiness of the people who always support me. Nyokap, bokapnya Kinanti and of course my girlfriend, Kinanti.” Kala said firmly.
“Gue not signed in?” Riko pointed at her own nose in annoyance.
“Gak! Lo team hore doang!” Kala pranks Riko while turning his face away from his best friend. He chose to look out the window that showed the wings of the plane that was about to fly.
“Dih the anj^ng! I don't appreciate my efforts. I just want LDR with Emili just for nemenin lo. But, what are you doing? Not very happy anjir!” Riko said in annoyance.
Kala just chuckled then turned to look Riko who looked annoyed. Although he knew Kala was joking, but still it felt stifling.
“Still yes, you're the one who always supported me. Believe in me and support me even in a rather complex way.” Kala chimed in while chuckling.
“Hahhahaha. You tell me how I'm going to be strident? But yes it is! Hahahaha..” They laughed at Riko's words.
“I think I still want to scream, laugh as much. Crazy, my heart almost broke earlier,” commented Riko expressively.
“Yes, I'm the same. Nantilah, we shout together, invite my girl and lo girl as well. They have to enjoy this victory,” timpal Kala who is difficult to end his own smile.
“Yes, we double date. But speaking of scholarships, which country will you choose?” Riko was curious to ask.
Kala was silent. The smile on his face suddenly disappeared. Riko's question makes him have to be aware again with the reality that exists. Which country should he choose now?
