The White Heart Jasmine

Chapter 9 - Remember Me Continues

My father has returned to Jakarta. I can teach again too. While Melati has been relaxing waiting for graduation time, the new sisters begin their final exams.

Tomorrow the 12th grade will go recreation together. He said it was some kind of farewell. Finally the class agreed to go to the island of Lombok, because almost all the friends in the class had gone to Bali. While those to Lombok have not half the number of classes.

Melati is preparing her needs. Because the trip is almost a week away and home. Melati choose clothes that are relaxing, because many trips to the beach. Some knee-length pants and jeans. Light color oblong t-shirts, hats, and thin jackets. Then his favorite white sneakers and casual sandals.

"Are you all ready?" Mom went into Melati's room. Mom sat on the bedside. While Melati put her equipment in her backpack.

"A little more, Mom." Melati looked at the mother for a while and then continued her activities.

"How are you doing Elvan?" ask mother.

Melati's hand that was about to insert the pile of shirts came to a halt hearing the question.

"Elvan?" Melati did not answer. He said so because he was a bit surprised. He put the shirt in his backpack, then sat down next to Mom.

"Why did you ask Elvan?" This time it was more serious.

"He likes you, Mela." Mom smiled. He saw his daughter's face. It's not a young girl anymore. His face shows a man who is beginning to grow up.

"Mom can tell, yeah..." Melati smiled thinly. "I rarely see you, Mom. He was a little far from his class. I don't have the same heart as Elvan. I don't accept his love." Melati conveys what it is to mom.

"He's a good kid, yeah... It also seems to be calm," said Mother. Mom fishing to make sure Jasmine feeling.

"Now I want to focus on continuing my studies first. I don't want to think about a relationship like that, Mom. If it's time for a soul mate, there won't be anywhere" said Melati.

"Well, mantaappp... Mother's son is amazing. Though I never forbid loo, for dating. Just be ready and do not interfere with the purpose of life that we want to achieve." Mother said while helping Melati organize some of the items that were already in bed.

"Yes. That's why because I don't feel ready, I don't accept him" said Melati.

"Hhmmm. What else to prepare?" ask mother.

"Bathletes. I'll prepare it myself, ma'am," said Melati as she pulled the backpack zipper, closing it.

"Sooh is a mystery to God. We never know who will be our partner. In a unique way God will unite the hearts of two people. In time both of them and God will know for sure" mother advised.

"Importantly your partner will have to understand your career choices, goals that you believe God wants you to do. So do you to your partner. If looking for the perfect one obviously will not meet," added Mother.

"Yes, Mom. I get it." Melati. Mom patted Melati on the shoulder and left her in the room.

The clock keeps going. Night's come. The moon and stars again wrestle with the sky until it must finally sink when the sun replaces its position.

Melati with spirit was already in front of the school. He likes to travel like this. It's just rarely done. With a bright blue t-shirt, white sneakers, a black jacket coiled around her waist, as well as her black hat, Melati stepped steadily towards class.

"Hi..." Someone called.

Melati has memorized the sound now even though they rarely meet.

Melati. "Hey..." Melati waiting for Elvan's step.

"Have a good time, yeah." said Elvan. This morning it was so bright.

"Thank you," replied Melati shortly.

"Can I chat you?" ask Elvan.

"Could only. We're friends?" said Melati while tightening her backpack that was slightly down on her shoulder.

"Yes. We're friends." Elvan. His tone was less relieved.

"Mel, I'll make sure you remember me during the trip" Elvan continued.

"Why is that?" ask Melati wonder.

"Later to know." Elvan smiled broadly. "Take care's. The save trip."

Melati waved and entered her class. Elvan is still heading to her class. In the class jasmine friends are already crowded. It was exciting to see them in their own fashion style. It was clearly a different style like not a schoolboy anymore. On cool and cool.

Before long Mr. Ardan briefed for the trip. Three buses will leave. Each bus will be accompanied by three teachers. The trip will go to Tanjung Perak Port in Surabaya. Then the journey continues by taking a boat to Lombok. Tomorrow they will arrive and begin their adventure there.

Everyone is excited about this trip. Both the students and the teachers showed happy smiles. The remnants of fatigue due to the weight of the final exam process had already vanished from their faces.

After the headmaster led a prayer to hand over their journey, one by one the students and teachers got onto the bus as their absences were arranged by the class steward. Remain orderly despite their endless cries and chants.

"I can't wait to swim on the beach. He said the beach there was white sand. And also not sticky on the feet. Really, ta?" Ervin exclaimed with his spirit.

"I'd like to sunbathe to go home black" Replace Leon who said.

"Leon sunbathing? Not black as a result..." Ranita's voice was coming.

Laughter exploded hearing that. Leon's skin is black. How can I sunbathe again?

Melati lifted her backpack that she had just put down in front of her feet. He's gonna grab the bottle. He saw something round in shape nudging his palm. Melati. Keychain? Black color with a line not so irregular shaped love white color. Melati. In the white circle it is disguised silver color of small lines. if viewed more deeply it's initials, E&M.

"Huh..???" Melati. Where's this keychain from? Does he have friends. Melati intended to ask friends, but her HP shook.

Number is known

- Have you seen?

Melati is confused, who's chatting her? He opened his profile picture. That sweet smile. Elvans.

Jasmine

- Look what?

Number not known - Elvan

- The one in the backpack

Jasmine

- Yes. It's been. Kirain has a friend. Thank you yes...

So it was Elvan who put it. When can he put that keychain in his backpack? I met you a little bit too. Ahh... pas he think his backpack sag it ka? That fast?

Elvan - Melati changed the number with the name of the owner.

- Remember me...

Why is this guy so romantic? Or is he actually like this?

Jasmine

- Hm... I studied there. School hours cannot be used HP. Do you know where my number is?

Elvans

- It was fortunately to have a favorite teacher. This is also in the office, first permission dong use HP.

Whats? Mr Diko? Does that favorite teacher know Elvan shot Melati? Then Elvan got his number from Mr Diko? Oh my God, if so... I don't know why jasmine's getting hot cold.

Melati didn't know what to answer Elvan's chat just now. He felt his face and ears were hot now.

Elvans

- How did you reply? Don't worry, Om doesn't know about my heart to you. Safe.

Duh, Elvan can even read Melati's mind. But relieved also by his last chat. His heart calmed down immediately.

"You're so busy with HP? Who?" ask Ranita. He was standing on the side of the chair talking to friends around him.

"Home man" answered Melati, then.

"Worry very much about you. Want to go this jellyfish, not war," Ranita said. Now he sits next to Melati.

Jasmine

- Yes, yes first

Elvans

- Ok. 😊😊

Jasmine closes the HP and keeps it in the backpack pocket. Then he opened the bottle and drank a few sips. Ah, Elvan can make him suddenly panic gini. Hopefully he doesn't chat often. I can be suspicious of Ranita.

Jasmine kept the bottle back. He watched the road from the window. He likes to see the scenery that changes quickly when riding in a vehicle like this.

This trip will be very effective.
