When Potatoes Fall in Love

30

“Nadin,” call Dira by whispering.

“Ya ?” sahut Nadin looked over

“Jawab honestly, I've heard a lot of this gossip.”

“What gossip ?”

“Are you really dating Aidan ?”

“EEh !!!!”

Dira gasped at Nadin's surprised response.

“A-I'm not dating him. How can there be such gossip ?”

Dira sighed in disappointment as the gossip he got did not really happen.

“They thought you were dating because there was a kid from our school who saw you go to Resgold at that free dinner. There are also those who saw you go to the playground with him. Did you really go with my annoying sister ?” tanya Dira tries to pry the truth.

“I-it's right,” replied Nadin.

“Waaw !”-Dira shook his head, his face looked in disbelief-“ How can you guys go together ? I didn't see you guys so close. On the contrary, I often see you guys fighting when you meet. Does your quarrel show how familiar you are ?” babble Dira.

“Ah... it... I didn't know we were close or not. Everything just happens. Just a coincidence,” welcomes Nadin feeling embarrassed.

“But, why do you look so surprised when you find out I went with him ?”

“Of course I was surprised, even I felt disbelief. Gini yes, I often take Aidan out. Whether it was playing or what, he often rejected me. I could even count on the finger how many times he wanted to come out with me,” grumbled Dira with his neck veins that seemed to pop while teasing Aidan.

“A-I didn't know he was like that. I was thinking otherwise because you guys look so close. But, you are patient yes, patient,” said Nadin while patting slowly on Dira's shoulder.

“Cek coke...”.

All the tenth graders and students gathered inside the hall turned their attention to Pak Yon who suddenly said two strange-sounding but funny words in their ears.

“Assalamu'alaikum, good morning to noon children,” said Mr. Yon on the sidelines of the conversation and laughter of the students addressed to him.

“Wa'alaikumussalam, good afternoon,” greet the disciples simultaneously.

After conveying his intention of gathering all tenth graders, Pak Yon as student wakasek read out the names of students who entered the IPA, IPS, and Indonesian majors.

The atmosphere and the look of tense faces emanated on the faces of the students and schoolgirls waiting for her name to be called.

“Which name you mention now goes to class X IPA 1. First, Aidan Rederick, Alya Wirasih.

The Hall building sounded a little boisterous when Aidan's name was mentioned entering the IPA class. The students who were in class with Aidan were even more excited because they were one class with the school prince they admired.

“Nadin Nadin, we don't get into IPA class. Now it's a division turn for the IPS class,” said Dira after several times patting Nadin's shoulder.

“Oh yes ? Thank goodness we didn't get into IPA class. I don't like chemistry. In that case, let's hear it together,” said Nadin felt a little disappointed.

I can't possibly be one class with her, Nadin's mind lowered.

5 Minutes later

“Hooaaam.” Dira begins to sleepy because his name is not also called. Not long after, Nadin also yawned because it was infected by the Dira vapor.

“Next, which goes to class X IPS 4 is ........, ......., ............., Dira Wibowo,................., .................,., Dira Wibowo,....., ........., ......., Nadin Naraya, ......, ....

After a few minutes I was spent worrying. Now, Nadin and Dira hug each other because it is good to be in the same class.

Drrrttt Drrttt Drrrttt

Nadin grabbed his flickering phone while vibrating as he was already out of his bathroom.

📩 Days :

Tomorrow and next I'll sit with you. So, don't sit with anyone.

Nadin furrowed his brows reading the incoming message from Dira at two midnight. He did not think that his habit of sending messages at inappropriate times had not disappeared.

📨 Nadin :

Aye, yes. But, I thought you'd sit down with the others.

📩 Days :

Not likely.

📨 Nadin :

Yes already. Now you better sleep. It's still midnight.

📩 Days :

Nooooo !!!!! Nadine ! Nadiiiinnn. I'm not done talking yet. I want to confide ! I can't sleeprrr !🙀

Nadin left his phone at the end of the bed without checking the incoming messages again. He wants to quickly go to the subconscious because he is still very sleepy. In his remaining consciousness, he was a little dreamy. Had it not been time for sleep, he would have talked a lot with Dira a little longer. If he could, he also wanted to say that he had hopes for a class with his cousin's sister.

As morning approached, Nadin pedaled his bike to school with a breeze that swept his skin gently.

Today, his heart feels calm until a small humming did not miss accompanying his footsteps to Indonesian class 1.

From a distance, Nadin sees Aidan reading a book in the classroom. Without a second thought, he approached the window where the teenage boy was leaning on his shoulder while reading a book.

From a distance of two meters, Nadin stopped his steps and let his eyes fixate on the figure of Aidan that was visible from the side. Unknowingly, his mouth slightly opened in awe at Aidan's facial line which he saw from the other side.

She was so beautiful, Nadin was smiling like a girl admiring a painting.

All the memories since he first met were replayed inside his head. I don't know why he was so happy to realize that he had spent time together. A sweet smile was again engraved on her lips which was often called sexy by male students in her class when she was still Junior High.

Sret

Aidan shifted the window where he was leaning earlier then returned the gaze of Nadin who was looking at him.

What was the girl dreaming about this early in the morning ? inner Aidan who still highlights Nadin.

Nadin who realized he was drifting in memories immediately left where he stood and headed straight for his class. He several times patted his head because he felt himself stupid to not know that Aidan was looking at it.

Nadin flinched as soon as one of his legs was at the mouth of the door. He immediately turned around and leaned on the door leaf. He looked up to see the name of the class he was about to enter.

This is a true Indonesian class 1. But, why is Aidan inside ? I know he's IPA 1. Why is he here so early ? Or... did I see wrong ? nadin's mind was confused.

Nadin peeked out from behind the door. Next to his eyes glared at Aidan who again sat sweetly reading his book.

I didn't see it wrong, it was him. Did I just go in ? thought Nadin.

He let out a long sigh to gather all the courage and throw away all his embarrassment to get into the classroom.

Aidan put down his book and turned to Nadin who was currently standing beside him.

“Morning, Nadin Naraya,” greet Aidan while fixing the location of his glasses.

Nadin's eyes rounded in surprise Aidan called out his full name. He tried to hold back his happy smile when called like that.

“Again, did you miss the lesson schedule ? Why are you in this class ?” cerocos Nadin's.

Nadin furrowed his brows then took his lesson schedule inside the bag.

“Try seeing this, you IPA class 1 learn Math now.” Nadin showed the piece of paper to Aidan.

“I just found out you were watching me, you got to know which class I was in,” said Aidan smiling.

“I just happened to hear your name yesterday. Now you better look for your class,” Nadin's pretext, even though he had focused his attention yesterday to hear the class where Aidan entered.

“No, this is my class.”

“It looks like you're still sleepy. Yes already, whatever you want, I don't care if later you are embarrassed and late because of the wrong entry into the class,” Nadin said about to leave.

“How about we bet ?” tanya Aidan pulled Nadin's bag.

“What bet ?”

“If I'm really in the wrong class, you can tell me anything or ask anything from me. If you lose, I'll do the same to you. How ?”

Nadin furrowed his brows and looked in wonder at Aidan.

“I can not do strange things for you or even give expensive items.”

“I will not ask for anything strange or ask for expensive items on you.”

“Alright, I agree,” said Nadin after thinking hard.

Aidan was so happy that he made a big smile looking at Nadin.

What a smile it is, inner Nadin then look for a bench that is in the middle of the class. He put down his bag and once again turned to Aidan. Aidan once again threw a smile at him to make him embarrassed and did not want to look at him again.

It had been a few minutes since the teacher left the classroom, Nadin was still staring pushyly at the blackboard.

“Nadin, let's go home. Why are you talking like this ? If you remember, you kept this up from this morning,” said Dira who had put all her stationery in the bag.

“I just thought of something, let's go home,” Nadin said.

Aidan, I didn't know he was moving classes. Is that why he confidently invited me to a bet ? Cheating !

“Aidaaaannn !!! You ....”

“What's up?” asked Aidan who had been standing next to Nadin.

“Yes Lord !” nadin's screams flinched.

“Why did you call me that while ruffling your hair ? Are you frustrated with your defeat ?” ledek Aidan's.

“You cheated ! I didn't know that you moved majors and got into my class,” Nadin scolded.

“Cheat how ? You accept your defeat and punishment. Tomorrow, I will wait for you,” said Aidan smiled.

You spicy-mouthed man ! Just look at tomorrow, my punishment will be made in retaliation, Nadin's mind smiled cunningly.

“Until when will you sit in front of the school ? Dira has been home since, right ? Let's go home.”

After being reminded, Nadin only realized that the school was deserted. He got out of his seat and went home with Aidan.

At 05:10 in the morning

A security guard hurriedly ran from his guard as soon as the sound of the gate bell rang.

“Nona Nadin yes ?” asked Pak Jaja as soon as he saw Nadin's face.

“Iya, Sir. Sorry to wake up early in the morning,” said Nadin smiled while slightly nodding.

“It's okay, Miss. Please enter. The master told me that the lady was coming,” replied the security guard closed the gate after Nadin entered.

An awkward feeling immediately enveloped Nadin as soon as he set foot inside Aidan's mansion that was so big and majestic. He also did not suspect that Aidan had told his household assistants about his arrival. The proof, a middle-aged woman immediately welcomed once she entered, even the woman already knew the intent of her arrival.

“This is Mr. Aidan's room, miss. Please,” said the maid.

“I-iya, thank you. I will only wake him,” said Nadin smiled stiffly.

Aidan ! I didn't expect that the punishment you were given was to wake you up every morning for two weeks. And this morning, you made me feel uncomfortable with everyone here, Nadin said, opening the door.

Once again, Nadin was stunned when he was in Aidan's room. In addition to being surprised by a room that was three times larger than his room, he was also fascinated to see Aidan who was still sound under his thick blanket.

Slowly but surely, Nadin approached and stood beside Aidan who was unaware of his presence.

How handsome. Why does he still look good even when he is sleeping ? nadin's mind did not blink a bit as he looked at Aidan's face.

“Eengh.”

The sound of Aidan's moaning fixing the location of his blanket resuscitated Nadin who was almost washed away in a daydream.

“I had to quickly wake her up,” I see Nadin then put his backpack anywhere and approached Aidan.

“Aidan woke up,” whispered Nadin in the ears of a teenage boy who was still sound in his sleep.

“Fuuuuhhhh, fuuuhhhh, fuuuuhhh.”

Nadin repeatedly blew Aidan's ear so he could wake up. However, the virgin simply groped her ears and turned around.

Because the subtle way doesn't work. This time, Nadin prepared to pull out Aidan's blanket. However, the movement of his hands came to a halt when he saw black pajamas strewn across the floor.

D-he's not naked, is he ? nadin thought with his big round eyes. His hand also swiftly took off the blanket that he had just held.

“Aidan wake up ! Banguunnnn !!!!! We are late !” nadin shouted while shaking Aidan's body violently.

Aidan who was treated like that was not surprised at all. He blinked slowly trying to open his eyes which still felt heavy. As soon as Nadin's face was caught by his sight, he smiled slightly and pulled Nadin over his body.

“Aaaarrrggghhh ! Plaque !”

A slap accidentally landed on Aidan's smooth cheek. He woke up because of the pain he was getting.

“Nadin ?”-Aidan stroked her sore cheeks while gathering all her consciousness-“ini.

“Basic pervert ! What are you dreaming about?!” nadin snapped while hugging himself because of the shock with the incident earlier.

Aidan smiled faintly looking at Nadin who was also highlighting himself with a sharp look.

“Ra-ha-si-a,” led Aidan was about to pull his blanket over.

“Yes God ! What are you doing Aidan ?! Wear your blanket to the bathroom !” Nadin's orders.

“I put on pants, stop covering your face,” reply Aidan then waltzing away.

Without retorting, Nadin opted out of the room. Unexpectedly, Nadin found two housekeepers standing at the door of Aidan's room. They both just ducked and ran away.

Did they eavesdrop ? ask Nadin.

While Nadin was mouthing with himself, Aidan enjoyed his pleasant morning bath while recalling Nadin's reaction of asking him to wear a blanket to the bathroom.

Why are you so shy ? We used to bathe together, and Aidan smiled.
