When Dusk Passes

Running Race

" I joined ya." Azka broke the silence. Followed by Ron's nod.

Azka sat down beside Lira. The girl's face looked flat with no expression, the next second she stood up so that made the guy on her right look up at Lira.

He slightly lowered the smile on his lips, and exhaled deeply, then said.

" Who wants to run with me."

Ron stood up, stretching his body.

" Can." His ideal while moving his feet and hands is exactly like an athlete who wants to participate in competence.

"Azka, you don't want to come?"

Said Lira excitedly as if nothing had happened between them.

While Azka was just gawking, there was a bit of heartache at seeing such a reaction of the Lira. From last night, he noticed that Lira seemed to be unperturbed by the condition she was in, even laughing with the others. As much as he felt towards me, so that there was not the slightest jealousy that he seemed, Azka thought. Then Azka stood up.

"oketoo." The answer.

The three of them went down the rock hill and stood in a valley overgrown with a kind of wild reed plant. There is a puddle of water in the soil so that it forms a small lake when viewed from the top of the hill.

" Ready !! " Lira put up the horses.

" One... Two... "

Not even a count of three Lira has run first while laughing loosely.

" Woiiii, cheating." Shouted Ron who was running after Lira.

They ran down the valley, through the puddles and through the clumps of mountain plants. Ron and Azka caught up with Lira and continued to run in front of the Lira. Their distance is far enough. Lira realizes that she will not win against the two guys. Finally a sneaky idea came to his mind.

" Whoi....Toolooong."

" There's ulaaarr." Lira screams hysterically.

Ron and Azka stopped their steps and turned around, quickly running towards Lira who was pretending to be scared. When their distance was close, the Lira pushed the two back.

" HUH."

" Sorry." Shouted Lira as she dashed quickly forward.

As a result, Lira first reached the end of the valley, with breathing that is still boring she sat with her legs crossed to the front. Azka and Ron had just arrived, they were sitting next to Lira.

" Curat you Ra." Said Ron in a disjointed voice.

" Yahahaaahhh." Lira laughed.

Ron looked at Lira, this girl is a little strange. His mind was hard to guess, just a while ago, his glassy eyes showed how disturbed his heart was because of Azka, but in front of Azka he seemed to not care. So great is the sense of prestige that it defeats the jealousy that resides in the heart of the hijab girl.

" Why ?" Tanya Lira caught sight of Ron who was looking at her.

" Don't look at me like that, you'll have a crush." Say Lira anyhow.

Ron threw away his gaze while laughing sarcastically, making Azka's face red.

" What time are we home?" Ask Ron to Azka.

" Not yet, any minute maybe." Azka said while standing up.

"Back in the tent, we're ready to go home." Said Ron then.

Seen as a group of climbers were gathering, they were eating popmie when Lira, Ron and Azka arrived.

" Hey, this is what you guys made me already."

Alin said as he pointed at the two popmie cups on the rock.

" Cieee, that cute cieee who's got a pacal balluu." Temptation of brother Arif who deliberately changed the consonant R to L so that the language looks slurred.

They all laughed, and sure enough from behind the tent appeared Azzel was having trouble holding 2 cups of popmie that was still hot heading towards Azka. Actually Azka was already very fed up with all this, plus it seems like Azzel really enjoyed the jokes he made.

Azka takes the popmie that Azzel is proposing.

" Thank you." Said cold.

The older brother of the climbing group approached them.

"After this we will go down the mountain, you can choose, want to go down through the asphalt or through the forest. We'll be together again at Mbah sukiran's house, okay." Said the chairman.

Most female climbers choose to go down the asphalt road, but Alin and Lira choose the forest path, not anything, Lira just does not want a path with Azzel and his gang.

Azzel approached Azka, they slightly moved away from the others, and seemed to argue, not knowing what they were arguing about. Then Azzel walks up to his gang and Azka approaches Lira's group and the other friends.

After packing, Alin and Lira walked first, they looked compact by holding hands. Lira deliberately away from Azka who had seemed to want to approach her.

The journey down from the mountain is not so extreme when climbing, besides they have little to know the terrain, the area traveled is also only a derivative.It takes 1 hour for them to get to the house of Mbah Sukiran.

They rest while sitting in the courtyard of the house mbah Sukiran shady because many trees around the house.

" Ron, I'm riding on your bike when you get home?" Pinta Lira's.

Ron had not yet answered. Azka cut it first.

" You go home with me." Azka said while looking at Lira.

" No, I'm with Ron not good with Azzel."

" I said to me, I'll pick you up from home and ask your mother for permission, if you forget." Azka clearly with great emphasis in every word.

" Don't have to gas klo by the way, my mom also knows Ron. There's no problem." Timpal Lira cold.

Alin who heard their feud scrunched his forehead in wonder. While Ron who knew there would be a cold war between the two could only remain silent. How else, their problem is so complicated more complicated than the chemical formula of benzene with several carbon circuits.

" Stay, I'll pick you up, I'll take you in front of your house, Ra." Azka said firmly.

Lira just kept quiet, she did not want to argue with Azka any longer, besides Alin who was starting to suspect, there were also some level brothers who approached towards them.

Azka heats her bike on the sidewalk with Ron. Lira still stands sculpting, in the distance looks Azzel with his gang towards the courtyard of the house mbah Sukiran.

" Waduhh, how about." Benak Lira's.

Lira approaches Azka. Intended to take his helmet hanging on Azka's motorcycle.

" Ka, I'm the same Ron, please." Lira pleaded while lowering her voice.

Azka stared at Lira for a while then took Lira's helmet and put it on her head. Both Ron and Lira were equally surprised by Azka's actions.

"Let's go up !" Azka orders Lira to ride on her bike.

Lira immediately sat in the back seat of the Azka motorbike.

" Ron, we're ahead." Azka said as she put forward her motorbike leaving Ron who was still gawking.

Not only Ron, some friends and even level brothers also gawk at the departure of those who seemed strange and sudden.

" Lira's mother is very sick, so she has to go home quickly." Ron said as the elder brother of the group glanced at Ron asking for an explanation.

"Sorry Ra, so bring your mother. I swear, there's no other reason."

Meanwhile, Azzel and some of his gang friends are just glued to whispers.

Seriate...
