The Shah of First Love

SCHOOLWORKING

***

Miss Ismi looks upset after returning from Warung, she met with Rara, asking the father of the friend who Kani meant yesterday. Rara did not know and felt that none of her parents had died in class. Ms. Ismi thought Kani was lying let alone going with Raihan. Is his son in love with Raihan that brat?

“Kani,” called her ferociously and Kani who was peeling an onion raised her face. “So I met with Rara, I asked, he said there is no friend of yours whose father died. You lied?” he snapped.

“Ya Rara won't know, Mom. My friend is different from the same class I am, besides why, I'm still curious and wondering about Rara. Mother do not sift father, be kind to their families who have clearly slandered me,” reply Kani annoyed and his mother massaged the chest.

“If it is revealed about the problem Mother is also upset, earlier I just asked because of curiosity.” Ms. Ismi was very careful to speak, fearing that her traumatized son was offended.

Kani nodded and continued the work. Both parents are the same, can not keep his feelings, still want to help and connect with the family.

Later that night, after studying, Kani passed Kalingga's house as usual, deliberately slowing down his steps until the man who was hanging out in front of his house greeted, pleasantries, and pleasantries, then ask why his social media account has not been confirmed. Kani is surprised and promises to check on her. There was something different about that man, starting to be interested in Kani and Kani who really like him for a long time, it is clear that the flowers also forget Kalingga who yesterday was instigated with all the slander he experienced.

The next morning, Kani left school as usual, not carrying a cell phone when she was curious about Amarendra's situation now, is he going to school today? Hope his friend is okay. Arriving at school Kani saw Amarendra chatting with the teacher, his shoulders were patted as a form of support and Amarendra who was still covered in his face nodded while sharing a forced smile. Amarendra passed and Kani deliberately did not call him, let him go and maybe want to be alone first, no need to disturb him and he immediately went to class. How shocked Kani was when she saw her table was full of sauce with her chair.

Kani easily guessed who did it, she cleaned up immediately without any fuss but the following days, the incident was repeated. Some smiled and laughed with satisfaction, who else if not his three former friends. Kani is still silent, trying to be patient, Yana even reprimands Reva but Reva does not care until Reva and her two friends become more and more. Kani slumps violently as she passes by and Reva stretches out her legs, Kani's knees to scuff and she has to hold it back until she gets home from school.

“You're why, Kani?” They meet at the gate, Amarendra already looks fine like never before.

“I fell,” Kani replied lying, she didn't think her legs were this painful, making it hard to walk.

“I drive home, yes,” said Amarendra while looking down and Kani nodded. Amarendra hugged Kani and Kani hugged her waist. Heri who saw the scene was silent, although the pain of jealousy was still felt. Heri keeps her promise, never bothering Kani again.

When he got home, Kani complained and his father asked him to sit with his legs out. Mr. Muji applied massage oil, his son fell very tight, and Kani complained when Mr. Muji was too strong to press behind his knees.

“Be careful, just bruises, keep loving the oil of the wind so warm, soon also healed,” said Mr. Muji calmed down and Kani nodded.

Not satisfied there, Reva and his friends continue to try to hurt Kani, Kani to sit alone because no one wants to get in trouble with Reva. The whole class is confused because suddenly Kani is treated like that. Reva even invites everyone in the class to hurt Kani. Some follow because they feel it is funny but those who are still a little sane choose to be silent do not follow or defend.

When the sports clock is over, everyone plays badminton including Kani, he suddenly tense when Reva became one of his opponents home. Reva continues to hit strongly, hoping to hit right in Kani's face but Kani keeps dodging.

“Si Reva seems to be on purpose, deh!” chirp the high school kids watching. Amarendra who heard and watched from earlier also saw that.

“Let's know the taste of the Kani, I'm so excited about him,” timpal Bela who does not like after knowing Kalingga with Kani so close and often talk on the phone.

Amarendra kept silent and kept noticing Kani's tense face. Everything screamed as the racket held by Reva floated on Kani's face, Kani sat down and complained.

“Kani, wake.” Rosi and Rara help.

“I'm fine, I'm going to the toilet.” Kani goes and takes her jacket. Reva smiled seeing Kani's red face almost cry.

“Rev, ouch! It was outrageous,” whispered Citra and Reva looked at him annoyed.

“Main there with him,” said Reva irritated and Citra no longer dare to speak.

Yana who was about to follow did not become because she saw Amarendra.

Kani turns on the tap, she doesn't go to the toilet, she just wants to wash her face. He grimaced at some point in his face until his shoulder was pulled and Amarendra he saw.

“Bloody, why are you silent, you should complain there so that the teacher can see.” Anxious Amarendra nagged. Amarendra pressed the wound on the girl's forehead, holding back the blood and Kani nodded as she was asked to wait for a while.

Before long Amarendra returned, Kani drank and was silent when her face was touched, grimacing as plaster was glued to her wound. His nose was also slightly scratched but he did not want to be plastered as well.

“I can cover it with bangs.” Kani pulls her hair child forward and Amarendra shakes her head in annoyance. Kani laughed crisply and Amarendra tidied the girl's hair as before.

“They replied to you, I'm sure of that,” he said slowly and Kani also thought like that but she didn't expect it to be this bad. “Talk to the homeroom so they get hit by this law, it's too much.” Amarendra was very scared. Realize you won't always be around that girl.

“I don't want any problems, I also prefer to busy myself studying to face the test,” reply Kani and Amarendra shook his head, upset himself with Kani's attitude. “I'll move schools away from them. They won't be able to interfere after that.”

Amarendra just stared and Kani turned to him.

“Best friend, I only have you, Maren.” Kani looks at her heart and Amarendra drops his palm on the head of the girl.

“I won't always be there to take care of you. Please, fight them so that I do not feel guilty when I hear you continue to be bullied,” he added hoarse and Kani smiled then nodded funny. Amarendra put his hand away and chose to look up at the sky. Kani followed along and they saw a pair of doves passing by chasing each other.

“It looks like me and you.” Kani snaps and Amarendra laughs.

“So, who's chasing?” even though he already knew the answer, he was the one who pursued.

“Nothing, we fly together, not chasing each other let alone leave.” Kani smiled and Amarendra fell silent to hear it. “Promise me, always tell me where ever, give me news, and our friendship will last until old age.”

Amarendra felt stifled to hear it, he wanted the same thing but for a different status. Is that vibration just him feeling or is Kani too small to understand a special treatment that men give her? Yeah, maybe it was. Amarendra does not want to think badly. Kani is still a young man, that is an indisputable reality.
