The Shah of First Love

The Shah of First Love
DEFIANTLY



“Never bother Kani again, we are friends, and I will take care of her from now on,” Amarendra said confidently, Kani smiled faintly and looked at Heri sharply. Challenging.


“Go or I shouted and we were all called to the teacher's office, it's not a good thing for you let alone Kani slapped, glancing at Aldi cynically. Aldi finally embraced Heri's shoulder, strongly, pulling him away. The two stepped up, about to leave Kani and Amarendra who were silently watching. Heri continued to turn her head despite being pulled roughly, she looked unconvincing.


Kani and Amarendra breathe a sigh of relief and then look at each other.


“You lied.” Kani glared and Amarendra smiled.


“Mari friends.” Amarendra stretched out his hand, Kani was silent. “At least if he acts again, I will be able to help you as a friend. Wh why? Are you afraid of the rumors that are spreading between us? You should be just so funny. After all, that's not true, is it?” His hands were still in the same position. Kani still doesn't look interested.


“I am not friends with men,” he said ketus then leave Amarendra who folds back his hands with lips perverted smile.


“Take it, I like it, you're adorable.” Amarendra walked slowly with a radiant face.


After school, Kani crosses paths with Dahlia, the two of them silently not greeting each other as usual, but the gaze of the two depicts the hostility because last night.


“You fought?” Citra who saw asked.


Kani nodded slowly. “She always looks for because.” Kani.


“The friction between brother and sister is natural, really! That's normal,” said the man who doesn't have a sister, Reva. Kani was silent, just breathing heavily then she glanced at the class, where Amarendra was, his class had not disbanded, seen the male teacher explaining, obviously because the door was wide open. Kani lowered her head and sped up as Amarendra's head poked behind the glass, staring at her.


“Serious you guys have a relationship?” ask Reva who's curious.


“Same once enggak.” Kani denied firmly.


“Then, when Rosi said you were ushered by her, it was true?” Reva.


“Yes! Since Teti carelessly invited Heri, it was clear I was with her breaking up, still she was trying to unite us. I was forced to take a ride from Amarendra, it was late afternoon, Teti and Citra were also dating out of nowhere.” Kani explained in annoyance, Citra gasped because she did not want it to be revealed again. He patted Kani on the shoulder, asking her not to discuss the incident. Kani just mendelik, still upset with the attitude of Teti and Citra until now she is still curious, where two friends until home late at night.

The tall body is not thin not fat Mr. Muji has fallen on his shabby carpet. He looked at the ceiling of the shophouse room which became his resting place with his friends. Sometimes he sighs, worried, unable to buy a cell phone for Kani and Kani will continue to stay away from him. Maybe he should be more active in working, overtime without stopping, even though he has done it. Coupled to the thought also with the anger of his wife who disagreed with the cell phone that their son wanted.


“Not sleeping yet, Sir?” asked Haryawan, whose phone always attracts the attention of Mr. Muji, who promised to accompany Mr. Muji to buy a cell phone.


Mr. Muji smiled and sat down. “Can you take me to the place of the phone you bought? I'd like to buy this week.” Mr. Muji smiled.


“Waduh, I want to go home, Sir.” Haryawan is confused, he has promised to go home, after four weeks he missed.


“Friday, can?” Mr. Muji did not want to make Haryawan postpone his return. The man younger than him rarely came home so that the money he brought was collected first.


“In sha Allah, Sir.” Haryawan smiled and Mr. Muji said thank you and then collapsed again. Haryawan was silent, staring, could not bear with his village friend, who was older than him, whose name was always well known and now looked so stressed because of HP problems for his son.

Kani's relationship with her mother is still so, but still a mother will be anxious when her child hunger strike, Kani is lazy to eat, often miss breakfast, even permission to go to the Terminal. There are several tasks that he has to copy, along with his cousin Rere. Ms. Ismi was relieved that with Rere, she would never allow it if she went alone or with a male friend. Bu Ismi gives the money and Kani receives it with a sour face.


Kani is actually lazy, why does she have to be in a group with her cousin? Not with his friends? If only he could bargain.


“Males very, deh, one group equal Rosi.” Teti complains and Kani looks over.


“Better, there is also the same Reva Citra in your group. But I, alone among them,” said Kani exasperated and her friends smiled then approached soothingly.


After school, they all separated. Kani and Rere step together, already far enough from school, there is no other way but to walk there. They only talk occasionally, Rere is busy with his phone.


“Eh.” Rere was suddenly a bit serious and Kani turned her head, her face was pale, her hands were holding her stomach, but Rere who was looking pretended not to see it. “Not you have a phone, where to see?” tanyanya.


“At home,” answered Kani while biting her lips. “Can you go alone? I'm suddenly not feeling well, my stomach hurts.” Kani who can't stand it is finally honest. Both Rere's eyes immediately glared in disbelief.


“What the fuck, anyway, you? Both of us who have been appointed to make a photo copy everything.” Rere replied loudly and Kani had no other choice, than he was told to the teacher later, more berabe.


Both of them continued their steps, from the bend, a motorbike appeared driven by high school students from other schools. The young man named Faisal, his lover Rere, suddenly it makes Kani tense let alone the motor stopped and Rere was ringing with charm.


“Rere..” Kani pulls her cousin's arm and Rere brushes over. Kani lowered her head as Faisal continued to look at her, so deeply.


“Come, I'll take.” Faisal smiled, Kani still looked confused and Rere was up, sitting in the motorcycle seat while hugging Faisal's waist tightly. Kani shuddered at the sight of her cousin.


“Let's you ride too, behind me, Faisal mumpung can nganterin.” Rere pulls Kani's hand, Kani finally climbs up, holds on to Rere's shirt and Rere continues to rebuke her. Kani is afraid of falling, one motorbike is driven by three, obviously narrow also Faisal, the young man continues to glance at Kani when there is an opportunity even though Rere continues to babble to invite him to talk.


Arriving at the Terminal, Kani who waited everything was sorted out, occasionally glanced at Rere and Faisal who were making out. The man sits on the motorbike and the woman stands next to him, occasionally leaning back, twitching spoiled, and Kani raises the corner of her lips when she sees how Rere hits her lover's arm spoiled. It may be adorable for some, but for many, it's laughable.


They also met a classmate who photographed a copy of their assignment. After they finished going home first and Kani, still waiting, was quite in line, she had to be patient as well as endure the pain in her stomach.


“Kani.” Suddenly Rere called and Kani turned her head. “Me and Faisal want to go, watch out for you if you complain.” Rere threatened, because his father and Mother Kani were brothers. Her father always asked Kani if her twins were late.


“I'm afraid to go home alone, we're here together, don't be so.” Kani does not want to and Rere docks in on her to let Kani lower her voice. Faisal kept paying attention. “It's far, Re.”


“Don't spoiled, deh. From the terminal to the house, it's not that far. I want to play first.” Rere urged and Kani glared.


“Lain times only, Re. Poor him.” Faisal mediates and Rere does not want to. Both of them just turned back, Rere did not want to break up again with Faisal because their road plans both failed.


Faisal finally could not refuse Rere's invitation. The pair of lovers passed by, leaving Kani angry and almost crying. When he finished, Kani paid for everything and he passed, walking home even though he knew he would not be able to travel in a short time, let alone alone, alone, it felt creepy to him because some of the roads he was about to cross were very quiet plus the dark right-left bamboo forest. The house is rare.


Kani could only continue to step up and resigned, until she bowed helplessly to endure the pain, her chest also felt narrowed because she tried to walk quickly to shorten the time, but in fact, it made her sting.
