Vica

I'm not letting go again

That night, Rian misses Vika, and decides to go to the hospital to see Vika.

“Sorry, Where's the Vika?” Rian asked Riva who was sitting on his bed when he couldn't find Vika anywhere.

“Tadi afternoon Vika came home to,” Reply Riva.

“Go home? You know, not the condition of Vika has not vit right?” Rian is worried, he knows very well that the injury to Vika's ankle has not improved, and according to his experience Vika should rest for 2 full weeks.

“Yes, but he wants to go home! I don't know why, but she insisted on going home even though the doctor forbade her.” Riva Obviously.

“Oh. Emmm, where'd he go? You know her home address?” Rian curious.

“Eh, the.” Riva was confused to say it, so he just shook his head not knowing, he really did not know where Vika's home address was.

“Oh... yes already, thanks ya.” Rian said then he went to the information section to ask her, but...

“Sorry, I can't give you any information about it,” said the information keeper.

“But this is really important sir, I have to meet him now.” Rian tried to persuade her.

“Sorry I still can't!” Said the guard later.

Disappointed Rian returned to the room where Vika was treated, he sat on the mattress and fell silent.

“Kakak got it?” Riva's real question could tell the answer was from Rian's face.

Rian shook his head, “You, are you Vika's schoolmate?” Rian asked when he saw a uniform hanging in the corner of the room near Riva's bed.

Hearing him Riva was a little surprised, “Ye? Emm, the.” Riva did not continue his words, he seemed hesitant to say it.

Looking at Riva's expression, Rian knew that they really were one school, “Can't you tell me where you went to school?” Ask Rian.

“That's..sorry you, I can't tell you,” Riva feels bad, but what power, he has promised not to say anything to Rian. Yes, before leaving Vika asked him to do that, and Riva could not refuse Vika's request that had helped her.

“Did Vika ask you not to tell me?” Rian guessing.

“Sorry to,” Riva said not evasive because it was Vika's request.

“No, no. That doesn't matter. I'm sure without you to tell it too soon fate will find us.” Rian smiled, “Then I'm sorry.” He said it with a smile, and he left immediately.

“You okay?” Rian asked when he saw a student who was using in his teaching place fall down.

“Thank you, I'm good..” Riva was surprised to see Rian who he had met in the hospital is now in front of him, located in front of the school.

Rian smiled, “How are you?” Ask Rian kindly.

“I'm good,” Replied Riva was not good because he remembered the incident in the hospital, “But sorry, why is sister here?” Curious ask.

“I substitute teacher for sports subjects.” Rian replied with a smile.

“Ye?” Riva surprise.

While Rian just smiled, and Riva certainly knows the meaning of his smile.

“Then I excuse.” Rian said then left after Riva replied with a smile.

“That's who Riv is?” Ask Liana who just came.

“You know him Riv?” Tanya Rara gasped like she had run away.

“Why you?” Riva and Liana were shocked to see Rara gasping for breath.

“The guy dropped a photo earlier. So I chased him to return it.” Obviously Rara.

“Photo?” Riva is confused and Rapun shows it.

“Vika.” Riva was very surprised to see Vika smiling very sweetly in the photo.

“Vika?” Rara was confused and then looked back at the photo that Riva was holding, he was sure not the Vika in the photo he took earlier.

“He, he smiles.” Liana was fascinated by the photo.

“Times anyway?” Rara is confused, she is also slightly scared because Riva and Liana can immediately recognize Vika in one look.

"Let me give it back to Ra." Said Riva and Raarapun gave it to Riva.

“Sorry pa, I'm here to restore this.” Riva said during the break, he took the time to the office to return a photo of Vika.

“Wah, thank God it is not lost.” Rian took the photo, he was relieved because the only photo of himself with Vika was not lost, “Thank you, but why this photo.” Rian was confused.

“Oh, my friend who accidentally saw this photo fell from the book you brought.” Riva Obviously.

“Then say thank you to your friend.” Rian said thankfully.

“Good pa.” Say Riva, “Then I excuse.” His welcome then left after Rian invited him.

“Nah everyone, today I want to have a written test about the lesson last week, so I ask you to go back to class.” Rian.

Looking at Rian who was in front of the class, Vika was very surprised.

“Before that I want to pass on first.” He also did the presence, until the last name, “Vika Alvarado,” He said.

“Vik, you are called,” Whisper Liana who sits in front of Vika's desk.

“Hadir,” He hesitated, he just raised his hand without looking at Rian in front of the class.

Then the test began. Then…

“Can I ask for help?” Rian asked Vika who was collecting the answer sheet in front.

“Ye?” Vika surprise.

“Can help me to bring this to the office?” Tanya Rian tidied up the answer sheet and handed it to Vika.

Vika nodded taking the answer sheet.

“Alright, thanks for today, see you next week.” Rian said then left and Vika followed Rian from behind.

“You see his expression? Not usually very,” said Vivi surprised to see the expression of Vika is unusual.

“Iya, yes. He also wants to help the teacher bring the answer sheet.” Reni was astonished, because only this time she wanted to help the teacher. Though in fact, instead of Vika does not want to help, it's just that no teacher asked for Vika's help and finally the image of Vika became like that among students, also teachers of course.

“I'm glad you went to school here.” Said Rian happy to break the silence between himself and Vika who was walking in the hallway of the classroom which was a bit quiet because it was time to rest, now it was time to rest, “I'm really worried you know you're suddenly coming home from the hospital. And worse, you haven't given me your contact either.” Rian sounded disappointed, “But thank God, I found you again.” Rian smiled brightly.

“I'll be back in class, here's the answer sheet, sir.” Pamit Vika when arriving in front of the teacher room, Rian looks disappointed, but he knows that this is a school and he must maintain his professionalism as a substitute teacher.

“Not it Vika ya?” Ask Ms. Elis, math teacher.

“Iya ma'am, I asked him to bring me the answer sheet test.” Rian asked confusedly.

“And she wants?” Miss Elis is confused.

“Em, do I ask please.” Rian.

“Wah,” Bu Elis was amazed and Rian looked confused why Miss Elis was like that.

After school….

“How about Mr Rian, are there any difficulties in teaching at this school?” Ask Mr. Arnold who is the vice principal.

“No sir, the kids here are easy to teach. Some students look to have talent in a particular sports field.” Answer Rian.

“Owh is so, thank God then,” Mr. Arnold was happy to hear Rian's answer.

“Oiya sir, there is actually one thing I think about.” Said Rian, “About a student named Vika Alvarado.” Connect Rian.

“Owh the boy yes. I hope you understand him, he's a little different from his peers. He doesn't like sports lessons,” said Mr. Arnold.

“Ye? No way sir, as far as I know he likes sports very much, all kinds of sports he likes it very much and.” Rian feels stupid, he slipped.

“You know Vika?” Anna asked who accidentally overheard Rian and Mr. Arnold's conversation.

“Ke, principal, good afternoon principal. You have come?” Say hello to Mr. Arnold, and Anna smiled, “This is Rian, the substitute teacher of Mr. Widodo,” he introduced Rian to the Headmaster who had just returned home from work.

“Rian, this is the principal, he just finished the principal training in Kalimantan.” Mr. Arnol introduces Anna to Rian.

“Halo ma'am, I'm Rian Herdiansyah.” Rian has committed himself.

“It's nice to meet you," said Anna, "Oh yes, you know Vika?” Anna asked again out of curiosity.

“Em, I happen to know him since he was in Elementary School.” Said Rian who was initially hesitant.

“Rian,” Newly arrived Lina.

“Tante.” Rian was shocked that Lina was here.

Rian, Lina's aunt and Anna chat in the principal's room. Aunt Lina told me everything she knew about Vika. Hearing that, Rian was completely unable to sleep. He knew about the removal of Vika from school, but he really never imagined that Vika himself could not say. After all, only half the story about Vika's life was known to Aunt Lina, and the other half only Vika knew.

The next day Rian asks Vika to go to the roof of the school...

"Don't look at me like that.” Vika said angry, she did not like when there are people who look at her pity.

“But you know the meaning of my face, different from others.” Rian said he knew what Vika meant.

“But I still don't like it.” Vika said to leave.

But Rian didn't let it, he hugged Vika from behind, “I told you, I won't let you go again, no matter what.” Rian said softly, he was very sorry for not being able to accompany Vika all this time.
