The Timer Me

Chapters. 55. The Timer Me

Kiel who had just finished getting ready, went downstairs for breakfast. He approached the dining table that had available bread and milk as a menu this morning. Kiel looked around but could not find the figure he was looking for.

“You find Rara well. He will soon be back home.” Said Mama Rara.

“Indeed her where Mah.” is Answer Kiel. If he talks to his Mama Rara alone then he will call with the call Mama instead of Aunty. That call was common for Kiel. 

Her mother Rara walked towards the chair and sat opposite Kiel.

“Say out don't know where. Mom immediately told him to go home. The time she left the house was the same with Mama. Yes, Mama called him to go home. Mama also lied to him that Mama would not permit him to go to school for a week.” Said Mama Rara while putting chocolate jam on the bread. 

“Mah, Kiel asked not to use such a threat. Pity it later with Rara. He's going to be taking his third semester exam. This week there will be a lot of work to be done. Mom and mom Rara. Kiel, please be very kind to Mama, Rara briefly get here Mama must be honest with her. Let Kiel take Rara. Mama don't worry, Kiel will take care of Rara at school if she has free time. Kiel ga kidding Mah.” Kiel pleads. He deliberately spoke at length so that his Mama Rara changed her mind.

Rara's mother laughed. “Kiel, listen to Mama. Mom was just kidding about all this. You know the attitude of your mother. Mama just wanted to try you. It turns out you're so considerate of Rara. Mama is jealous of Rara. Have a husband candidate who is so considerate.” Tempted her Mama Rara while smiling. 

Suddenly the front door opened and Rara appeared. Rara's face looked so frightened. He was very scared and agitated. During the trip, Rara had tried to neutralize her feelings but never returned to normal. He kept thinking about the words of his mother. This time he was under threat from his mother. Though during his life, he always get affection and never get threats or snapped from Mama. Frightened, he walked up to Mama who was at the dinner table. Rara's face now looks more restless because of the existence of Kiel.

“Ra, honest with Mom. You walk that early to where.” Ask Mom suddenly. Rara's position was now standing at the end of the dining table. He did not dare to sit.

“Rara was to a friend's house between birthday cakes.” Rara answered nervously. Her hand from earlier could not she play the tip of her uniform. 

“Chick what guy.”

“Cowok Mah.”

“Your boyfriend?”

“Only friends of the age.”

“If you can know whose name is Ra. The long name is all.” Ask her Mom Curious.

“Jefran Emerald Delonix.” Answer Rara quickly.

Instantly her Mama Rara had trouble breathing hearing that name. A name that was no stranger to him. 

“Ya. Mama no longer needs to ask you Ra. For the one on my phone, my mom was just joking. Now you go back to school. Let Kiel take you. Soon Kiel will pick you up. Mama go to the room first, Mama cape want to sleep.”  Pamit Mama Rara then just passed by. 

Rara still put on a confused face seeing the dramatic change of the mother. He was confused why Mama's face immediately changed when he heard the name Jefran. Is there something Mama has hidden about Jefran. Rara kept daydreaming until suddenly Kiel startled her.

“So to school ga? I'm almost late to the office.” Kiel surprised Rara.

“Oh sorry. Here's the car key.” Rara handed the car keys to Kiel.

“Loof the road do not bengong there continue later kesambet.” Shouted Kiel who was already at the entrance door. Rara ran after Kiel. 

At school, Rara sat down and remained silent. He was still thinking about the attitude of Mama who changed so quickly. Not to mention when he mentioned Jefran's name. He is now more stressed because he forgot to do math tasks. Maths lessons also begin in the first hour. Finish history.

The first hour began and soon the math teacher entered the classroom. After paying their respects, all students are asked to collect assignments.

“Ra, let's go ahead. Masa Lo has not worked yet. I've sent the answer.” Take Rara. Rara just scratched her head.

“You guys first. I'm still looking for books in the bag.” Reply Rara.

“Good. That's me and Wardana first yah.” Pamit Rara then passed Rara's way to the teacher's desk. Now all the students have gathered their assignments and the Master is busy counting the number of books collected.

“Number is only 35, less one student. Please one person who is not working get up from the seat and get out of class immediately.” The Master's orders. Immediately Rara got up from the seat and headed forward. All the strongest disciples were so shocked to see Rara getting up from her seat for not doing the task especially Reva and Wardana. Rara is known as the most diligent and smart child in the class. The teacher was also surprised to see Rara who woke up.

“Sorry sir, my task forgot at home because I was in a hurry to school.” Rara said when she got to the front, at Master's desk.

“Then tomorrow you just bring it to my room. But sorry you haven't been able to take math lessons. As per sir's letter, please step out of class. If you want to ask about today's lesson, tomorrow Sir will teach you when you give up your assignment. Thank you.” The teacher then leaves. 

Rara's face did not look sad because this was what she wanted. Honestly from the heart, Rara today felt lazy to learn math. Rara walks alone through classes that are busy studying. It seems he was alone who got the punishment out of the classroom. Now Rara decided to go to the cafeteria to eat. The birthday cake that he ate this morning was not able to last long to fill the stomach. The proof is that Rara's stomach feels hungry. 

“Buk, bakmi chicken with each iced tea. Remember well Buk, iced tea is not mostly sugar. Just a little bit is enough.” Rara's message to the canteen Mother.

“Siap neng Rara's. I already know the mainstay menu neng Rara so don't worry.” The canteen mother replied then passed to the back making Rara's order. 

Rara walked towards the table that was at the end of the corner of the canteen. The table is a mainstay table every time Rara goes to the cafeteria. Rara's order came shortly.

“Still Buk.”

“Sama-sama neng.”

 While eating, Rara was surprised to see the closeness of Kiel. 

“Nih people why come try. I also want to hide I've been found out. Fate oh fate.” Pasrah Rara's. Kiel now walked closer and finally reached Rara's table.

“Ra, why in the cafeteria? First time no class?” Ask Kiel.

“There is class. I asked Teacher for permission to make breakfast because I forgot breakfast at home. Keep the teacher permission. The teacher said she was afraid I might faint in class. Hehehe.” Lying Rara.

“I guess you don't work the task of continuing to be expelled by Teacher. But it's not possible anyway, said Aunt you are very diligent work duty.” Kiel looked at Rara.

“Well, said Mama.” Rara answered with a forced smile. He should look happy so Kiel doesn't suspect him. But Kiel is not his name, he already knows that Rara is not doing the task. He only tried whether Rara would be honest or not, and it turned out that Rara was lying. 

“So you came here to say what?” Tanya Rara switched the conversation.

“Oh that, earlier in the office there was no work so I decided to keep you at school until home. Take it easy, I'll wait in Mr. Nathan's room. I would like to talk more with Mr. Nathan. I still have a long time in Indonesia.” Kiel Clear.

“Oh alright. If so, you want to eat. Let Rara order chicken noodles for you.” Tawar Rara's.

“Bby too. If it could be the same iced tea rich have you well Ra. Which sugar is a little.” Kiel smiled.

Rara put on an incredulous face. Rara was made even more astonished by all the words that came out of Kiel's mouth. Why this morning everything that came out of his mouth was just right. Ranging from no chasing errands to iced tea with little sugar. In Rara's brain it is now determined that Kiel is a fortune teller.
