The Unexpected Love Journey

CH 1'S. The Bad Beginning

Nervous, that is how Andre felt, on the first day of Ospek at school. Since this morning from the beginning he woke up to arrive in front of the school gate his stomach had felt bad. Either because he was nervous or something was wrong with his breakfast.

Understandably, Mr. Budi has been the driver of his family since the 5th grade of SD, so it is like family for him and his family. His father is the owner of a successful IT company in Indonesia, while his mother works as a famous lawyer who can be said to be quite updated in his field.

Being born with such a background puts a lot of pressure on him because of his relationships, or his father and mother's family have high expectations of him. Although his father and mother did not say anything about it, but still the views of others towards him still make him depressed.

“Why son? Nervous?”, said Mr. Budi who is now looking at him through the middle spy.

“Banget sir,” he replied with a somewhat irritated feeling.

He felt that Budi should have been able to guess what he felt just by looking at the shape of his face, let alone they had known each other like family.

Looking at the digital clock on the dashboard of the car showing at 06:55, Andre tried to calm himself down; forgetting everything else, closing his eyes and telling his mind that everything was fine. This is one of the things that his father taught him first when he had a phobia with a dark narrow space until finally it became a habit even though his hobby had healed completely.

After 1 or 3 minutes of doing the mind control and the pain in his stomach becomes somewhat subsided, he immediately say goodbye to Mr. Budi by kissing his hand— it has become a habit— and then get out of the car.

Walking towards the main gate while looking at the front view of his school, Andre was quite amazed because the reality exceeded what he imagined. From the very beginning when he was in the 3rd grade of Junior High, he always wanted to enter this school, not because it was famous for its luxury.

However, it is more appropriate because the school's achievements in the field of robotics are quite famous among robotics lovers. And, also because SMA M has special cooperation with several campuses abroad. So, you could say SMA M is a shortcut if you want to study abroad.

He himself did not believe it when he was accepted into the school even—because many people are smart but still failed because of the tight competition—ia herself to tears when reading her acceptance letter and, the letter continues to be hung in his room until now as a trophy.

Arriving before the main gate, before he set foot through it, he closed his eyes and prayed in his heart to let all his days go. It has also become one of his habits every time he will start something completely new.

However, when he was about to step his foot through the gate, suddenly someone hit him from behind to make him fall after failing to maintain his balance with only one foot.

At first, he wanted to scold who hit him, but when he saw the person who hit him turned out to be a woman, his anger immediately receded. Instead, he helped the woman stand up. Especially when the crowd began to look at them, he certainly did not want his first day to be bad.

“Ah HP-ku.”, complained the woman, “Who the hell stopped in the middle of the road!” connect the woman again who was seen picking up a cellphone whose screen looks cracked, this time with a slightly elevated voice tone the woman again nagged, “Santi ngak!” said the woman while pointing at Andre, and thrusting the phone in front of her face.

Hearing the woman yell at him without further ado, Andre also joined the emoesi and finally joined nyolot, “Excuse me yes. Kan lo first who hit. Why even turn on the cave?”

“People, the cave does not want to know, you must replace the cave has HP, period,” said the woman, this time quite hard until slightly resonated.

“Dih, very good you origin ceplas-ceplos .Clearly you're wrong and even wrong people. Ogah.” Andre retorted, in his heart he actually wanted to swear harsh words. However, it came to a realization when it glanced at the people around it who passed by while whispering.

“Aduh early in the morning Ren, you've been fussing about the children of people. The.”, and other problems add up when Dimas comes out of nowhere.

Dimas, is one of his best friends, although sometimes mengeselin with the mouth of his bucket and often nyerocos do not know the place but, Dimas is one of the best friends who are always there when he is difficult.

“Ah. Gini aja, you wait for the cave here right home. Gua take you to the HP counter to replace or service or whatever it’s. Okay?.” said Andre ended trying to deny the quarrel.

He just did not want to add complicated problems and instead became Dimas and one more good friend—which happened to be the three of them one class.

“Wah, great also you, just the first day you can fight with cute girl.”, the words Dimas as an opening sentence as well as a warning for himself to strengthen his mentality.

And it's true what Andre was expecting, Dimas and another friend named Brandon, continued to stick tight to himself while teasing him about the incident this morning.

Even to the point of making him unable to focus on the school environment recognition session because of these two friends—which he really wanted to stuff both mouths beside him with cloth.

When he came home from school, Dimas and Brandon still did not take it off and continued to tease him until his ears were very hot and his emotions almost exploded. Somehow if the other person facing the two men mouthed this mother.

“Eh, so how? You really want to replace the HP of a girl?”, asked Dimas,

“Wah, only the first day he said he had gotten a cute girl aja lu, instantly update anyway. Go crazy, lose you Dim.”, added Brandon,

“Can be silent ngak both of you.”, he replied with emotion while hitting the heads of his two friends who are gossipers with books before putting them in the bag, “Dan also, update what? This is just a form of responsibility from a man who cares about his image.”, he added while wearing his bag and walking away from Dimas and Brandon.

“Alah bokis, at most you will like ntar. Hate will be love in the end. And he's pretty cute too, so why not all the same pacarin first.”, said Dimas who now - along with Brandon - followed him from behind while continuing to tease him.

“It seems less hard lu gua hit ya? Want to hit the cave again?”, this time, because it was too emotional and tired with the behavior of the two of them, Andre floated his ipad and almost hit the chatty duo with an ipad.

“Secakep what the hell is, so curious cave. If this crocodile until cute for mercy means there is a wow is from that girl.”, Brandon then asked.

The reason why Dimas was nicknamed a crocodile by Andre and Brandon is none other than the ability of Dimas who can hook any girl he likes and even once, was caught in 3 relationships at the same time. A very great deplorable act, right?

“Lu see for yourself ntar. Mostan kunyuk this one who actually likes, just his strategy he just carry the name of the cave.”, reply Andre while pointing to Dimas when the three of them will go down the stairs.

When he arrived near the main gate of the school, because the woman had not come at all, and he did not remember too much about her face, Andre chose to sit in one of the seats near the gate that the picker used to wait while opening something on his ipad.

Dimas and Brandon were both seen sitting in one of the chairs not too far from where Andre was sitting and watching him while pretending to chat.

Remembering Mr. Budi who might be looking for him at this time. Andre sent a short message, telling him to wait for a while.

“Insponsible also turned out to be lo ya.”, after waiting for quite a long time, Andre heard a very familiar female voice in his ears; exactly the same as the annoying female voice he met this morning.

Perhaps, because of his so annoyance with the woman, to the point that the voice he had just heard this morning could already be lingering in his mind.

In the distance, Andre looked at Dimas and Brandon who were smiling as they looked at him, and mocked him by forming hearts. He only replied to the two of his curse friends by pointing his middle finger stealthily when things were a little quiet.

“30 minutes, why are you so old?” reply after seeing the clock on his ipad that has shown at 13.35 or 35 minutes more after the bell home from school.

“Not that it's part of your responsibility huh?” said the woman.

The reaction made Andre a little upset, if the ones in front of him were men, they might have ended up in a jotos.

“Ah is, rather than wasting time. Mending us get our business out now, okay? Now, you mending come with me and don't ask much if your HP wants to be replaced.”, said Andre, raising his arm and acting like a waiter at a restaurant when he would show the way to the table that had been ordered.

In his heart he just wanted to quickly put an end to his troubles today as well, at a glance he saw Dimas and Brandon smiling while winking his right eye compactly.
