"You are broken, you are broken!"


I flinched occasionally glancing at a bunch of boys accompanied by girls. Don't know what's up. However, the rough voice earlier made me rather curious. It's free if I force myself to go inside. They're too clustered. There was not even a gap in who was being cornered there.


"That's fine!" I called out the name of the girl at the end of the street. He was carrying two thick blue-haired books. As if forgetting what was going on between the hordes.


The woman with the long white hijab that covered her stomach was looking at me with a sumringah. His eyes are soft, not a little sign of tired. When she smiled, the girl became more beautiful.


"You're reckless, already know that Miss Kila doesn't like our majors wearing hijab all that time" I told her.


He simply smiled, clutching the thick books tightly." You know I'm not comfortable wearing a veil that far. No matter what, I'll take the risk, Arin."


"Most Miss Kila tell you to leave class again" I joked, "just take me."


Sendu laughed, but he covered his mouth. "You wear makeup too sticky for SMK children, even if only powder."


"How else do you want? I'm not pretty like you, Ndu."


I rolled my eyes and shook my head in response to Sendu Larasati, my best friend, a Mechatronics class. Unfortunately he did not stare back, instead looking towards the crowd. Like he's asking me. In there-there-what?


"I don't know, Ndu. Udah ah, just go," I replied to him while holding the long-veiled girl's arm.


She shook her head. "I know his voice."


I blinked my eyes a few times. For the sake of too spicy chicken bones that aunt canteen cooked! As if I can't breathe clean air, Sendu instead approached the swarm of ants swarming with sugar.


"Don't go there, Ndu," I whined at him.


Whether my voice was like magic, the noise there grew. The screams of the girls were just like seeing a mouse today, some running until there was a gap for us to see what happened.


A man hits the cheek, but the opponent only protects himself. I shut my mouth. Looking beside Sendu no longer remained silent. He ran.


"Sniffles!" My call was not heard, I had to follow.


Sendu with his long hijab tried to penetrate people who are still in a group. His soft voice said, "Sorry I have to see my friend."


"Sniffles!" I called him again, this field is too wide. The break time is coming to an end, however I have to take Sendu to class. Miss Kila can punish us even worse.


I managed to hold his hand just as he managed to get into the crowd.


"Don't."


"Can't, Arina. He's my brother" whispered Sendu.


I tiptoed, biting my lower lip a little tight. Let your brain think realistically. Sendu could not break through, it could be more serious problem.


Without saying much I pat Sendu on the shoulder. Arina the sleeping tiger should be showing her fangs now, though that kind of makes me reflect. I penetrated into the crowd and people certainly saw it.


It was there that the man I knew as Tyo, the most troubled student in the school, was hitting the Sendu brothers. Before it happened, I forcefully pulled Tyo's collar. This guy has a lot of energy, but I'm used to it.


"God!" bawdy.


I stared intently at Tyo like a wolf who found an enemy, like a mother chicken whose child was bullied. The roar of the disciple was getting more and more audible and it was very non-wearing. I want to lock their mouths right now.


"You didn't stop making trouble? Shall I take it to the student council desk?" I give back to that boy.


"Oh? Is the student council still alive at SMK?" reply with that shitty sarcasm.


I clenched my hand, ignoring his words. So sucks. "Harp, Tea!" The cheers of the students.


"In them you, Tyo. Mending now went to each other's classes. The hour of rest is over" I said.


The students simultaneously look at the cell phone or anything that can show the time. They were horrified to see how much time was left. Not long ago they turned to their respective class wine. All ... including Tyo.


"Blue!" call Sendu.


The man who had been beaten a while ago tried to stand up. Holding the slightly bruised part of his temple. It's a bluish purple. Wanted to ask, but this is not the right time.


"Eh Sendu! Don't worry, I'm fine" said Blue.


I saw Sendu as if to cry. Can be ascertained the cause, the bruise. I exhale occasionally rubbing his back.


"Eh." I turned to the tall man, probably more than ten centimeters from me. His brown eyes were clearly visible when exposed to the eyes of the heart. From his thin lips he uttered, "Let's. Don't worry about it again, mah."


I just nodded, back to Sendu. "To yuk class. If you go to the UKS."


"No need, I'm also going to class. Please take care of Sendu yes, Tea."


Without him telling me I made sure Sendu would be guarded. Being a student council I must be ready to accept the caci maki of all school students. Friends around me should also be exposed to elbow. Miris. The Student Council is protected by the student body.


"Be careful, Blue. I'm with Sendu first," replied Sendu.


The mature man waved his hand. "Yes, Ndu."


It's a bit regretful because I can't communicate for long with the man called Blue. Especially figuring out the root of the problem between him and Tyo. The alarm on my phone vibrated, a sign that it was time to get in.


ooo


A week later, I was still busying myself with Tyo's case. Too many to be confused as to which one I should finish first. It's still unclear why Tyo does things like this.


I looked up at the sky turning blue. There is no sign of rain. Good thing, because I forgot to bring an umbrella and there was no intention to go home early. Sitting on a park bench near the canteen still makes me comfortable. From a distance I saw Tyo walking towards me. I don't know what wind he's walking in here. If you're looking for it, I should be ready to twist his hand.


"It's raining soon, Arin." My eyes narrowed, listening to what he said.


Since when does this guy care about other people? I shook my head. It seems like this is just my illusion, as Tyo cannot possibly be kind enough to rebuke others.


"Eh, Arin. How come you're not with Sendu?" ask Tyo again and I feel more and more foreign.


"Sandu went home with Blue. He said there was a family event" I replied with a sniffle.


"What family is a boyfriend?"


That question made my forehead wrinkle.


"Eh Tyo! Don't just talk about you!"


"What, Arin?" he said, "i'm talking wrong?"


"Sendu never want to date. The Blue is his brother" I explained.


I barely noticed Tyo's flowery face if only the next second I turned away. The man again put on a sour face while looking at me. Back to the other side and back to me.


"What the hell? Equipments! Your clothes are really messy. What is this long hair, how does it feel to be pulled? Proof of your long hair."


In between the scolding, I saw Tyo grimacing, holding his temple which might come with pain. While I want to laugh to see it. Satisfied. Very satisfied to punish Tyo right now.


"Acourse, Ndu! Forgive me!" I drifted as people around noticed us.


Very forced I let go and again drifted so that the people who were paying attention began to pass. "I want you to be neat tomorrow, Tyo!"


"Yes, Tea. Can't do that a day you don't bring it."


I snorted and folded my hands in front of my chest. "Keep you guys breaking, fighting and finally making trouble with the neighboring school? Instead of that, Tyo, can I ask you a question?"


I saw the man raise his chin, as if he was petting my request. If he thinks he should obey. However, as seen he only showed the twitching ends of his lips. What's so funny? I don't understand why he should hold her.


"Come!" I said with a higher tone. The man's eyes were round as if he couldn't believe that I had just snapped at him.


"Can deh. What the hell did not make Teteh afraid," he said to me. Anxious I immediately pinched his arm and stared intently at him. "sick! Oh gosh. Not satisfied you tortured me."


"TYO!" amucku. I took a deep breath, nearby my head became even more tired and honestly it was annoying.


Added value for atmospheric pressure in the park. For everyone this is an exciting and free spectacle. "We're going to the board room. I have so much to ask you."


Tyo didn't reply to me, he still pushed his lips a few inches forward. Sometimes rubbing the part of the arm that I pinch. He glanced at me and kept his distance. The long curly-haired man made me anxious.


Arriving at the board room, Tyo I let you in. Either I should be grateful for being lonely or not. All of the board members have not returned home from school, some escaped and disappeared from the attendance list for months. I exhaled considering Tyo who once asked the whereabouts of the student council.


"Beyond ajalah, Arin. It's not good that we're just the two of us," he scolded. I immediately picked up the phone that was in the bag. Seek the contact of a board member or anyone else to come into the room. 


I glanced at Tyo. "Sir will have a member who comes. Sit down, I don't think that's weird."


Tyo nodded. He saw an empty chair across the table, as did I who was definitely sitting opposite to him. While releasing the bag, I picked up a random book, a random stationery as well. I can't believe I got a blue pen to write this time.


"Tyo, may I ask why you fight the same Blue?" my many. Tyo glanced at the corner, looked back at me and then bit his own lips.


"I can't tell you why" Tyo explained.


"Why?"


Tyo pulled my notebook slowly. "Here's the pen. I wrote you something, but you can only open the Blue pass to me."


I frowned. Feeling too long, Tyo immediately picked up my pen. He writes quickly. Do not understand what the relationship between Tyo and Blue is. As far as I know, this man in front of me doesn't want brother Sendu to complain.


"You can write, but please help me with my work, too, Tyo," I said. He stopped writing, though his hand was still trembling until I could tell Tyo was trying to hold his pen.


Not long after I heard the sound of the entrance being knocked. I chose to leave Tyo, hoping my ex-kul friend could help. However, this man before me is not a member of the council.


Blue gives her best smile. "I came here asked Sendu, he said you asked to be sent. He can't make much preparations for the family event."


"Oh .. That is," I answered nervously.


Blue enters the room. The two pairs of eyes were meeting, the atmosphere was getting less and less wearing. On the bright side, I can immediately interrogate both of them.


Blue sat next to Tyo. I have not yet moved to sit down, instead seeing their behavior that looks not calm to each other. The shoulders sometimes move up and down. Both lips twitched as well.


"What are you doing?" A rather high voice made an echo in the room.


They stopped talking and sat up straight. The two also answered compactly, "Why not."


I ruffled my waist in front of them when I saw them back doing things I didn't know. Could they be struggling with their feet?


"Come! The blue! Enough's enough!" I said to both. They went back to silence and sat up. Folding hands on the table as if a kindergarten child being guided.


I watched the two for quite a while before I sat back down. Taking pen and notebook from Tyo territory without reading what the man wrote.


Both of their hands could not remain silent. The sound of the table is knocked due to Tyo and the sound of the floor colliding with the footwear due to Blue.


I snort. "So, what caused you to fight?"


"Nothing."


I looked up, this time they compactly replied again. "Internal or external problems?"


"Not both."


I'm unmoving. Both are really annoying. However, the grin on my face began to print. My chin is with both hands while looking at them.


"You guys are so compact?" my reply is a bit insinuating.


"Yes" they said again.


After a few meninges, both are aware of what is said until Blue clenches his hand. While on the other hand, Tyo stared in disdain at the man. I really didn't think it out.


"You don't have to lie, honestly," I said casually, "so Blue tell me your version."


Blue nodded. "You know, it's just a problem between men. Tyo don't like you close together ...."


I didn't understand Blue's look at me which then passed looking at Tyo. It was as if Tyo had indeed been asked to fill a pause. His tone was smaller, saying, "My problem."


"Well?!"


"Davenger, Arin. I don't like it 'cause you're the most wanted council member. Bummer. Blue knows, I don't like you taking care of me" Tyo told me.


I'm mumbling. From the beginning, I was watching this man. Why didn't he stop making trouble?


"Tyo's goal isn't just that" Blue said she looked at me, "He doesn't want you to know that Tyo did this to attract Sendu's attention."


"What?" I murmured slowly and did not understand.


"Enough is it?" Blue suddenly stood up. That guy was saying goodbye to me. While Tyo was still flinching in his mind.


ooo


Bizarrely.


The last two weeks have been even stranger since Tyo didn't make a fuss at school. SMK Bayanaka became quiet, there was no commotion.  Girls are no longer clustered like ants who are carrying food crumbs.


Since the day I learned of Tyo's innocence, Sendu also acted strangely. The hijab girl hid in class more often. When asked, only the trunks I get.


As of right now, Sendu is reading a book. He should have returned the book by now, with me remembering three days ago we borrowed it together. Sendu stuffed the book into the bag, he then stared at the window.


"To perpus?" bargain with him.


Again, the arm I got. However, this time accompanied by his words, "There's Tyo there."


I fold my forehead inward. Why does Sendu know that Tyo is in the library? Even the one who was watching did not know that the man was in the library. A very unlikely place for a troublemaker like Tyo to come.


"I'm keeping my heart, Arin. I can't see you, Tyo," replied Sendu with his gloomy face as he glanced down.


Sendu exhaled and looked up at the sky in the classroom window. I held his shoulder. "Who are you keeping your heart for?"


"We're both guarding our hearts until graduation, Arin. Later you know who," replied Sendu.


I can't believe my best friend's words. She didn't want to date, but wasn't this too soon? I don't want to force Sendu to tell a story.


Pat Sendu's shoulder once again. "I'm going back to the library first."


In my mind, Sendu's reason is to take care of Tyo and his heart. It has to do with what Blue said to me. The linkage in which the two men were fighting. More than that, the recesses of my heart question.


What are they hiding?


Unknowingly, the library was missed by me. Turn back around and go inside after taking off the shoes. The guard mom always asked me if I wanted to return it or stay in the library.


"I want to read a book first, Mom," I said briefly.


The library mother agreed. "Don't forget to scan your student card there."


I walked towards where the scanner was. Stick to the front of the student card before stepping into the school's book paradise. That's where I saw Tyo, as Sendu said.


Don't mind! Don't mind!


I said those two words as a mantra. Tyo was looking for something among the literary books. Fortunately it was different from the shelf I was heading to. Damn, reaching the programming bookshelf I had to go through the literature bookshelf.


My steps became more confident when I made it through Tyo. He didn't see me, probably busy with his books. However, when he turned around after picking up the book he was looking for, our eyes met.


"Arin," he called out softly.


I smiled awkwardly. "You to Tyo's perpus?"


I shook my head when I saw Tyo's appearance. For soto meat! The long hair that I reprimanded two weeks ago disappeared. He changed the haircut to 3-2-1, more presentable and like a person who had just entered MPLS. The clothes that are usually outside are now so neat without any tangles.


I doubt this is the man I was angry with two weeks ago?


Admittedly, he became more handsome after transforming like this. I don't know why I'm happy to see it change. In my heart I want to scream.


Ask the news of the man.


Tyo kept the book again, he also took my book and put it where it came from. “Someone wants me to tell,”.


Tyo pulled my arm slowly out of the library, the library hall was quieter than I thought. No one goes by except the cats. In the front yard there was a reading room, Tyo asked me to sit in one of them.


The man looked at me endlessly, the silir that blew lamenting our awkwardness. I don't want to open the conversation. The wind again comes and blows the hair in different directions. The reflex of my hand held the strands of hair that were swept away by the saddle.


“I tried to sneketin Sendu, but the end he refused. I never believed in the same Blue,” said Tyo while looking up at the sky. The black eyeball was extremely shady staring at the horizon up there.


“Sendu again take care, Tyo,” reply me, “you are all right?”


“Emang says who I hurt, Tea?” My heart slipped into the bottomless pit.


There's relief there. In her laughter that was as crisp as eating a snack, she unhesitatingly ruffled my hair.


“Hei!”


Tyo grinned at me. Immediately I twisted the hand that was on top of the hair and held it behind Tyo's back. It's like I'm a cop who just ambushed a fugitive. I'm pulling the thought that Tyo has changed. The proof is that he's just as annoying.


“If you are not hurt, why confide?” my nagging on him.


Again, I listened to her laugh. He quickly twisted his wrist until it slipped out of my grip. I'm slipping. No, I realized that men are stronger than women like me.


Tyo turned around looking at me. He smiled, which I thought was a smirk. Too slanted until I thought it was bad. Our eyes met, sending each other data that I don't know what until the pounding in the chest is different than usual.


“I've given up since the beginning to fight Sendu. Stop looking for trouble, but it's hard. Blue still thinks I'm after that distant brother. If we fight is ordinary,” explained Tyo to me.


I raised my hand and looked at the clock. It's still about eight more minutes I have to be in Bu Kila's class, before it really ends outside of class. However, somehow this leg is not in sync with the brain. Honestly, I can leave Tyo right now.


“Keep I like other girls, tau-taunya more slick,” continued Tyo.


My eyes still look at him. Slowly she held my hand. “Tyo off.”


“People I like are weird. Asking me to get a haircut, tidying up but after meeting the duck-billed without comment. Succeeded not make a fuss, I was ignored. Tell me to read the message in the book I wrote, but until now there was no answer. I'm surprised by him.”


I'm mumbling. Recalling everything Tyo said. Linking his every utterance to the events we've experienced. But I quickly shook my head. “You mean?”


Tyo just smiled. Not long after he whispered so quietly that only my hearing listened to him. “I like you too. But your camera is insensitive.”


In the last five minutes. I really want to count every second my debating goes on. I want to capture this momentum. Tyo smiled obliquely again. Naas, my nose is the target. He tried to take me back into the mortal realm.


“Do not salting yes, Arin. Tetu galakku.”


I rebelled! Immediately ruffled his waist and called out the name of the man. “TYO!”


End.
