When I Was 17 Years
Something unexpected
In class
#Aryan#
I went into the classroom, I saw Nadia's face pouting maybe my words were too harsh. Why do I feel guilty like this??
I wrote down a piece of paper whatever my dream was, maybe that way Nadia could forgive me.
I walked up to her desk, Nadia turned
"Here, I write my dream here.. If you translate into English I'll memorize it.." I said, I put the paper on the table and then returned to my seat, Nadia smiled faintly.
Moses glanced at us both.
Ina hurriedly wanted to open the paper from me but was held tightly by Nadia.
"I can't, it's ehehehe's secret." Ina said.

The bell rang break, I hurriedly wanted to read the paper Arya wrote.
'My dream is to sleep in a dark room with the lights out, since childhood I always sleep alone. That's why I always sleep with the lights on as if, ghosts, zombies, and monsters will attack me if I turn off my lights. However, until now I still sleep in the lights on, not because of fear of ghosts........'
I turned over the paper that had no follow-up
The lesson hours were about to end, I tried typing a message for him.
'You want to do this job in the cafeteria?'
Arya opened my message, I saw her chuckle.
'Don't go to school, in a park not far from the school'
the message answered, I opened my eyes.
"Alright, Arya dodol." I murmured inwardly
'Owkay👌'
I looked towards Arya, her face flushed and turned to the classroom door, I mesem mesem myself.
Moses looked at us, his face displeased but also agitated.
Near the school gate Moses called someone.
"Hello Mr. Haykal, the results of Nadia's math test have come out?" tannya

I died asking permission from my friends on the grounds that I would go to the course, thank God they understood.
"What's wrong with me anyway, why does my face feel so hot" I muttered my cheek
I saw Arya was already in the parking lot with her bike she was waiting for me apparently, I blushed shyly approached her.
"Hi." I said he just smiled
Arya opened the message from whatsapp, then she ignored it, we were about to step but Arya's steps stopped her face was very serious, I was confused.
"What's wrong?" much
"Nad, I can't seem to go to the park with you. I have a sudden business, I'm sorry.." he just left me and his bike.
I gawked not knowing what to say.
Arya ran from the parking lot and looking for a taxi, and she headed to a place anxiously.

While the previous day Nino gave some money to 3 brand children at the gambir station,
Arya arrived at the old building near the station between the used truck truck truck turns out there are 3 brand new children at his old school and also his best friend. Dika!
"Wah Arya, come also maneh.. In the chat we are not served, his kental friend who calls directly comes hahahaa. "exclaimed Tono.
"Why are you here?" arya asked worriedly Dika bowed silently.
"Maneh has been in dieui hayu or we sports a heula." asked Ricky
Arya did not want to serve, she was about to leave but it turns out that when her best friend even beaten them, Arya was aghast.
Wanted to fight back but remembered his promise to his mother, not to be involved in anything from his old school.
"Hey Arya, you don't want to help Dika hemm? mentang mentang already a city boy, do not need the Dika again he apparently, maneh justin he died here?" tanya Tono between the sidelines they beat Dika blindly.
Arya can't take it anymore, she can't let her best friend get beaten like this. Arya was about to fight but lost, they were both beaten repeatedly, luckily the sound of police sirens rang them in the fog and immediately scattered.
****
Arya and Dika ran as hard as they could to escape from there, as if remembering their childhood that often ran together like this if Arya's mother went to bekasi, as if she was a child,
Arya always took Dika home together, when the rain fell, when Arya was afraid to sleep alone with the sound of thunder, arrived Dika came to his house to stay overnight.
Arya was very happy when Dika came, she could sleep with the lights out Because Dika was with her.
