SMK Bratajaya on Monday morning, has been very crowded by many people passing by from different schools. It is seen in the variety of alma mater worn by students who walk in unison towards the Ceremonial Square which is already filled with foreign faces.

“So, as we do on Mondays usually, but right now, we have to work even harder! Don't disappoint SMK alma mater **, ready?” ilham Command to pick the spirit of other PMR members.

“SIAAAP!” answer the PMR child in unison.

Aul was stunned, as Kaila patted him on the shoulder. “Lo okay, Aul?”

Aul only nodded in doubt, his mind fixed on the message sent by Irlan last night.

‘Tomorrow there is a City-wide OSIS association at SMK Bratajaya.’

Although only a sentence like that, but Aul knows, that Irlan is one of the OSIS section in Ganesha High School. His heart raced fiercely, as Aul marched along the Ceremonial Square. His eyes were looking carefully at the unfamiliar face lined up neatly.

It has become a taboo for Aul who incidentally has been dating this, to just kepo with his past affairs, let alone about the former. But Aul can't lie to his heart, knowing that Irlan is in the possibility of meeting him, there is one hope for a meeting— which at least— is not intentional.

Because since then, Irlan has not fulfilled his promise, but gives hope for his relationship.

“Aul!” The call made Aul look back. When he was about to go to the UKS, it turned out that the welcome event was finished.

Aul was suddenly like a clumsy person, he could not obtain much vocabulary as Irlan stood before him.

“How are you?”

His smile and voice still felt the same as before. Neat clothes look, it is a characteristic of a ‘Irlan Argara.’ Aul's stomach felt heartburn when the greeting of Irlan felt buzzing in his eardrum.

“Hum .. good?” hesitated answer.

Another case with Aul who tries to keep his image, Irlan just gently invites Aul to mince words. Aul just retorted. Until on one topic that really makes Aul feel awkward and upset.

“Jadi ... how about Basupati's child, that? What is he, well?” ask Irlan curiously.

Aul knows, that in addition to being a child of the gang, the tendency of Indonesians is to look at everything from the side only makes Aul cobbled.

“At least, he is not a rich man who suddenly disappeared and agreed-agree only when breaking up just because of a long lost contact,” said Aul.

Irlan grimaced upon hearing the words of insinuation from Aul. “Sorry ..”

Aul shook his hand. “No, don't apologize, it's past." He's got a thin smile. “He is also happy with others,” added Aul sarcas.

Irlan who was standing next to him, suddenly stopped. Aul turned to him automatically. “Why? Right, right?”

Aul saw Netra Irlan filled with regret in his mind. But Aul who is already emotional and is being hit by a situation comes the moon, not a good combination. He was also not Hana Aulia during Junior High who could only remain silent, holding back his anger at Irlan.

It was better to be late expressing his emotions to Irlan, rather than not at all.

Irlan held his hand. His eyes did not escape from Aul. “Not that time, I've asked that we reverse, right?”

Aul screeched, he forcibly released Irlan's hand on his arm. “Udah late, Lan. My heart is almost dead, because lo!” suddenly jerk.

Aul did not understand why he could be sensitive like this to Irlan. Even he was already unconcerned with the curious looks of the people.

One thing that Aul wanted to expose to Irlan was, how devastated he was when Irlan chose to just leave, without fighting for it.

“Hana .. I kan—”

“Enough, Lan.” Aul hinted that Irlan would not return to continue his sentence. “Gue says gini to lo also already satisfied.”

Aul hated himself at this moment who was instead crying in front of Irlan, looking pitiful. “Gue .. already, cape.” He wiped his tears violently, staring at Irlan who looked pityfully at him.

“Hehe ... sori, I release cry,” said Aul with a raucous voice.

When Aul was about to go to the UKS, Irlan's arm held him back.

“Bome later ... together, same me, yes?”

Aul just nodded slowly, after all he did not believe that Irlan would be waiting for him. He had no interest in waiting for her either.

•••

Not even his heart was getting calm, the sudden arrival of Nadine— Vice Chairman of OSIS SMK Bratajaya— approached him who was sitting leaning on a park bench, while stirring green tea drinks.

“Why, Nadine? Really rushed?”

“Lo has broken up with Riziq?” asked Nadine who took a seat beside him. Aul is not surprised anymore when many people know his relationship with Riziq, even for a cute Nadine.

Whether it's just a hunch or not, it seems like Mr. Anwar did choose OSIS SMK Bratajaya from among people who have too cuek criteria, but secretly care. Like Anzella and Nadine, or Azka. Only Rijal and Akmal who Aul knew—sit's a little sane—have no cuckoo attitude.

“Emang why?”

Nadine took her breath. Aul has a bad feeling about this.

“Actually I don't want to interfere in your affairs anyway.” Nadine's words made Aul feel bad. “But, yeah ... I'm his best friend Flowers and acquaintance lo, maybe?” Aul saw how Nadine's face was laughing awkwardly in front of him.

“Lo could be my best friend, kok,” Aul correction.

“oya? Means my position is getting harder dong.” Nadine again commented a smile at Aul.

“Emang why, Nad?”

“So I saw at SMK gate **, Riziq want to nganterin Bunga.”

Emang too dramatic if Aul said that his heart had stopped so soon, but what Aul felt was, reflexes from his nose to scoop oxygen around him, so paused. Holding breath.

Aul held himself back from crying, too much crying at the beginning of Monday, so not good. Though Aul has no more strength to hold back his cries.

Nadine looked on him. He grimaces slowly. “Sorry .. but I also don't want my best friend to be a victim of stability Riziq.”

“Ma... means?”

“Gue one SMP equals Riziq and Bunga as well. You know, right, who's the flower I mean? Riziq story?”

Aul forced himself to smile. “Mantannya.”

His words sounded like a sneer. But Nadine responded with a ticklish nudity. “Better, you ask first anyway, to Riziq. News is true or not.”

Aul replied with a nod. “Still yes, make the info.”

“OK, equally. All right, same Riziq. Sayin, don't be filthy rich first if he doesn't want to regret again.”

•••

Ever since the two incidents that befell him, Aul's mood had been completely shattered. He'll just talk his way. More reserved and even less indifferent to the surroundings. Everyone is affected by his moody attitude. Including Riziq who was affected. But Aul is also very lazy to explain the details of the incident to Riziq.

Though he only pretended to agree to the invitation of Irlan alone, because in reality Aul will go home with Mahesa. But the karma that came to him was quick.

Aul laughs at himself, his life is always reprimanded if done wrong.

He agreed to the invitation of his ex, his girlfriend even seriously went with his ex-girlfriend.

“Cih, very useful!” frangipani.

Aul was in his room as Aura shouted at his name to rush to the living room.

“Iya-iya, Mom. Jerk!” sahut Aul's.

Aul walked gontai towards the living room. “Ck, who the heck is interrupting early in the morning on weekends! Fist up, I kick long,” dumelnya.

Seeing Riziq sitting on the living room sofa in his casual clothes, Aul clucked. He was just wearing his nightgown, a contrasting difference.

Realizing the existence of others, Riziq's head, who was originally focused on the phone, was now fully focused on Aul in pajamas. His smile expands, seeing Aul who is actually acting indifferent to him.

“Why not shower yet, anyway? It was noon,” he said reminding.

Aul just rolled his eyeballs. “Males.” He sat a little far away from Riziq, his hands folded in front of his chest.

“You want to play out?” tawar Riziq's.

Aul replied with a headband.

“Atau ... want to go home? Mom already nanyain loh.”

“Ngaco!”

Still with his patience, Riziq sighed. “Why ... hm? Sure you don't want a story?”

“Gak!”

“Do not want to clearin, too?”

“Gak!”

“Later it's my turn to say ‘Ya udah’ considered insensitive.”

“Emang!”

Riziq ventured to hold Aul's hand, though Aul initially refused. “Denger, Aul ..”

“No want ih!” reject Aul who is still in angry mode.

“I'm not a psychic who knows everything. So, if there's anything wrong with me, let me know. Don't just shut up. Okay, if you want to know I canterin Bunga or not ...”

Aul waits for the answer given by Riziq.

“Yes, I canterin him.” Aul could only waste a disappointed breath. He turned his face away.

“But I canterin him for not having the heart, he again ... hum ..” Riziq's reddened ears made Aul's curiosity increase.

“What?”

“Dia ... translucent .. and it just so happened that I was there, so I anterin,” she explained. Riziq hoped that Aul would no longer be angry with him. Because dealing with Aul's silence made him a little confused.

Aul is still not satisfied, if he does not take out his teething. “While all of you, reverse, sana!”

“Kan, it's already you, anyways I'm most welcome back the former,” said Riziq calmly.

“Ngapain anyway, are you here? Nasty, huh? It's already there!” expel Aul. Intentionally, divert the subject.

Riziq chuckled amusedly at Aul's behavior. Still pretentious selling expensive even though his cheeks have met red.

“For a long time I really kidnap nih,” seductive Riziq while ruffling his hair.

“HEH!”

Aul pursed his lips in annoyance. Riziq even chuckled because he saw his hair was disheveled.

“Here I help you finishin.” Riziq volunteered, but Aul refused. He could not be angry at Riziq, if Riziq was within close proximity of him. It made his heart feel slumped.

“No! Can do it yourself.”

After finishing his hair, Riziq offered to help Aul to come to his house.

“Bener, Aul. My own mother told me you wanted to come there.”

Aul squinted his eyes suspiciously. This isn't the first time Riziq has linked her aunt Julia on her show, kidnapping her out of the house.

“Bener?” he was skeptical.

“You must know, if I never lied about Mama.”

Aul mangosteen, true as well. “You do that, I'm sure I'm there?”

“She wants to be her sister,” reply Riziq half-heartedly.

Aul refrained from laughing. “Kok, can?”

“Udah just ask later with Mama. He said he wanted to make a cake... You want to help, right?”

“You are so stinking!” aul replied enthusiastically. “Eh, but really, Mom asked for this offer? Don't lie, be ashamed later.” Aul only feels insecure when aunt Julia who acts as if Aul is part of her family.

Ugh, just thinking about it already made Aul's cheeks feel hot, blushing in embarrassment.

“Iya, Aul ... already hunted shower there!”

Aul glared sharply at Riziq. “I've had a shower!”

“Ya, change there. Don't be long!”

Aul just nodded and walked towards his room.

After a few minutes, Aul was already wearing his casual clothes, armed with permission from Aura, he was preparing to ride Riziq's motorbike when Riziq held him back.

“What the hell! He said hurry!”

Riziq looked at it so intensely. Aul got nervous being stared at like that. “Apaan anyway!” He covered his face.

“Try calling, that nickname you gave me.”

Aul peeked out from the slit of his hand. “Why? Didn't I call that often huh?” tanyanya. It was not usual for Riziq to ask for this.

“Mau aja.” Riziq lowered his hand that covered his face.

Aul can feel his cheeks feel hot, even though the sky is in a cloudy condition. The twitch of his smile could not hide from Riziq who was still waiting for him.

After a brief throbbing and calming his heart. Aul finally said, “Dl .. you, why the hell?”

Without Aul guessing, Riziq smiled widely at him. “Don't give that face to someone else huh?” doors again. “You were too funny when you called my name,”.

Aul just nodded his head. Actually angry women are only one percent, the rest is just annoyed.

Aul also did not know, if his heart could be this weak. Though Aul had intended to silence Riziq for a month, but only lasted a week less. Ck, you girls.

On the way, Riziq reached into his jacket pocket. He gave Aul a ring formed from a red cable— his favorite color of Riziq— which at the end there is a black adhesive. Aul accepted it while laughing softly.

“What is this?” The rhetorical question made Aul look ridiculous.

Behind his helmet, Aul hears Riziq telling him about his seriousness. “Later the original ring huh? Meanwhile first.”

Riziq with all the sweet promises of the seriousness of their relationship in the future, sometimes make Aul feel distrust. But, all this time, Riziq had always kept his promise.

Even for the size of his first relationship in terms of romance in the gray white period, Riziq talks most about his future with Aul. Either just a joke or evidence of the seriousness of the man who has not even seventeen years.

Behind Riziq's intentions, Aul always blushed because of it. “Apaan anyway!” He slapped Riziq's shoulder.

There was a sound of laughter from Riziq, unconsciously making Aul laugh because of it.

“That's it, the rest of the time duty in practice. Inget you, so I made it in.”

Aul smelled his smile. “Very creative, thanks, yes?”

“Do not throw away, beware. Later ditukernya.” Riziq.

Simple goods like this, will actually guard Aul. Because he's an accomplished keeper. Especially about memories.

“Sure.”

During the trip, they continued to discuss the topic at random. Even with Riziq, Aul felt that he did not run out of topics at all. Either online or directly. Riziq it .. different. And Aul wants to be selfish for himself. Although it sounds like an impossibility.

Can Aul want Riziq as the last one? Enough Riziq to be the closing of his romance. Because Aul ... is afraid of feeling lost again.

“Do not hesitate to make a story. I can forgive your attitude, but one thing I cannot forgive,” said Riziq.

“About what?”

“Address.” There was no word from Aul to make Riziq continue his speech. “Any story honestly, because that way, the confidence of others we can get.”

Aul was troubled, he held the end of Riziq's jacket trembling. He himself had not been honest about Irlan at that time, did he have to say?

“Do not waste someone and chance,” reprimand Riziq back.
