3 Months Later

In the XII class IPS 4 core members of The Lion are with each monitor in front of them. In the exam, there must have been a shitty incident.

Just like this, Devan, Bagus, Adnan, Tian, Malik, Arnold and Ezra had already been cussing over the test supervisor for moving Alka to the front row. Right in front of the watchdog desk.

“Sial! Why was Alka moved? Tuh, the teacher like to see we are miserable,” grumbled Tian while knocking the pen on his test paper. The man in the neat uniform had not filled a single answer on his paper.

Neat uniform and full weight is not typical of The Lion children once. However, since the national exam will take place over the next three days, they are forced to step out of their comfort zone.

“Tau, noah! Look at it later if I become a teacher continue to teach his son, I love about the most difficult for his son!” timpal Adnan stared intently at the fat supervising teacher ahead.

“Emang lo want to be a teacher, Nan?” devan asked beside Bagus who was scratching his already short hair. Again, Good had to twice get out of his comfort zone, it took him weeks to think about cutting his hair.

Adnan showed a grin. “Some, lah. I want to be a TNI so I can protect my beloved country.”

“It's about what girls are, anyway. It's hard to guarantee, anjirr!” they chuckle in response to Ezra. “Nih, like the maker of the problem is not bismillah used to be right for him, nih,” added Bagus.

“Count shirt buttons. Instead of the constant nagging not finished-finished, nih!” they sniffed Arnold's words. Next to Arnold was Malik who had yawned many times. Salah himself he played Play Station until late at night with his papa.

“Tuk bat me, njirr. Even last night lost again same bokap!” Ezra, who happened to be near Malik, pulled the guy's head off. “Not learn even play lo, nyet!”

“Kayak lo learn aja, Ja,” reply Malik who made Ezra crybaby.

“TIMES WHY FUSS?! WANT ME OUT, HUH?!”

Hearing the snaps intended for them, everyone immediately shrunk by pretending to do the matter. Alka who had turned her head only chuckled inwardly at the desperate look of her friends.

At the same time, but in a different place. Meira and Dita could only sit quietly in the Cafe chair staring at Bella who was sitting down in front of them. No wind no rain Bella suddenly invites them to meet at the Cafe.

Fortunately, the next three days of classes 10 and 11 were closed because of the 12th class national exam.

“Lo say what, Bel? I've fifteen minutes we're here just diem,” said Dita opened his voice.

Bella´s. The white-jeans girl with a soft pink knit top raised her gaze to look at Dita and Meira who were waiting for her. “Gu-gue would like to apologize. I'm sorry because I've been cheered on you guys just because I'm selfish not wanting to hear your explanation.” Bella is back.

Meira. The girl with the black bandana was smiling and stroking Bella's arm. “Bella is not wrong, really. May also if in the position of Bella will definitely do it,” he said who was greeted by Bella.

“Gak, May. I was wrong. I should have realized that Bima did not like me and the feeling could not be forced. Brother Bima likes the same lo doang.”

Meira and Dita looked at each other for a while before sighing. “Feelings of the opposite sex are natural, Bel. We also can't force ourselves to like who, right? You're not wrong, neither is Meira.” Dita chimed in.

A smile flashed on Bella's lips as she looked at Meira and Dita. How foolish he was to have thought so badly of his best friend who was so good to him.

“Gue is now bright, May, Ta. Lately I have often tried to make deketin Kak Bima, but his response never changed. Even yesterday when I was honest about my feelings for him, he said he couldn't. He told me to throw away my feelings all the way.”

Reddened eyes and a trembling voice are enough to prove that Bella was really hurt by Bima's rejection. “Patience, yeah, Bell. Mei sure really if someday there will be a guy who is really sincere with Bella.”

Bella smiled and then stood up from her seat to hug Meira then followed by a hug from Dita until the three embraced. “Don't get angry againwell, Bel. We miss Bella who is chatty,” said Meira.

“Damn it! If I know you will be moved forward, I better learn aja semalem!” tukas Devan landed his ass on an unopposed seat near Alka as well as the others.

“Hooh. Semalem also my mother has been ranting I asked to learn but I even chose to play chess with my Satpam. Anjirr is the temptation of the devil, efficacious!” timpal Ezra who just came in with a bowl of flush noodles. The man who was not wearing a white uniform left the black shirt sitting next to Devan.

“That's called you karmic don't follow what mom said, lo!” chirps Arnold drinking a soft drink.

This time, after finishing the first day's national examination, they chose to stay a few hours first in the school's back stall rather than go home and deal with the books. The long table became their place to gather at this moment.

“Gue wonder the same lo, Al. How many IQs did you not learn to pinter?” tian asked with his hopeless face.

“Gue learn semalem,” replied Alka accordingly. He didn't lie, because last night the guy who had been issued his uniform was desperately fighting against his desire to meet his girlfriend just to study all night.

“Don't believe me. Lo I rarely see learning,” said Adnan next to Tian who somehow since when to hold his favorite guitar.

“Gue don't need lo believe.” Alka's answer made them laugh at Adnan who is now misuh-misuh.

“Eh, uh, May tuh, Al.” Alka Kontan turned her head on another door that could penetrate the back of the school without having to enter the school first.

There were Meira, Gilang and Dimas coming together. In Gilang's right hand was a white crackle bag with the logo of a supermarket they believed was food.

“Well, gini, nih, temen worth preserving. Yes, we need intake!” malik said with a frenzy when the bag of crackle that Gilang put in the middle.

Gilang chuckled then took a chair to sit at the very end. “This once you guys,” he said exaggerate.

Alka didn't crush them. The focus was only on the girl who had just sat next to Gilang. Dimas was already fighting with the others.

“Eh, Dim satan! I first took a snack! Find another sono!” ezra said he took a large sweet potato snack from Dimas.

“Enak! There is no old or young, I am first! Here!” Dimas suddenly dashed away as Ezra was about to seize again. As a result, the two men of different ages were chasing each other's mouths.

“Basic boy!” cibir Bagus who prefer canned drinks.

They did not care about Ezra and Dimas, all of them were busy spending the food under Gilang as well as the bearer who was enjoying.

“Why come here?” asked Alka who brought her seat closer to Meira.

“Why? Can't, yeah?”

Alka remained silent for a while before slowly pulling Meira's hand away from her violent friends. A round table with two wooden chairs not far from the swing of the net became the purpose of Alka bringing Meira there.

“Kok, we're here?” meira asked after landing herself on the chair.

“They were rattled,” Alka replied while moving the chair beside Meira then sitting there. Then, her black eyes stared deeply at the beautiful-looking Meira at this moment. Ah, no. Not only now because his girlfriend is always beautiful at any time.

“Why see me like that? Kangen, yeah?” accused Meira by squinting her eyes at Alka.

Alka's right hand raised stroked the smooth cheeks of the white-knit girl with the black clasps in her ragged hair. “Iya,” the answer is short but has a big effect on the performance of Meira's heart that suddenly beats great.

Meira chuckles as a distraction from her nervousness. Highlight Alka's shady eyes made her reluctant to look into those black eyes. Not to be disliked, it's just that Meira is weak if she looks at the eyes that linger, especially when Alka's hands move to slip her hair behind her ears.

Meira gulped her hard-earned saliva. For months she had been dating Alka but her body's response was still the same.

“Udah two days no see,” said Alka. Indeed, the last two days they did not meet because Alka was busy preparing for the national exam.

Chuckles, Meira looks at the guy. “Kasiaannn ...,” teased him with a bent face making Alka chuckle.

“Lo is not the same as me?”

“Gak, tuh.”

“Masa?” Meira nodded steadily then laughed as Alka looked at him flatly. Without warning, the girl hugged Alka tightly.

“Kangen tauuu ..” he said in an almost whining tone.

“Hin, enggak.” Alka's hand turned gently stroking her boyfriend's hair.

“The girl if she says it doesn't mean yes. If you say yes means no.”

“Ribet!”

Meira looked up at Alka from below sharply. “Not ribet. A guy who is insensitive. Moreover, a guy like Big Brother whose sensitivity level makes really sliced.”

“Oh, well?” his question then landed a kiss on Meira's forehead until the girl again hid her face in Alka's chest. “Ih, shame on knowing! If you look at Kak Gilang and others how?” mummified Meira.

“Biarina. Let your brother hot to have a girl.”

“TRAOSS DATING!! REMEMBER THE ROMP, WOY!!” yelled Gilang followed by another furore.

“Ah, I think I should get Aluna here, deh. Hot I saw them!”

“BUCIN CHRONIC WELL SIR BOSS!!”

“Diem. Find a girl there!” alka's reply made them cry out.

“CONTINUE TO HAVE A BOYFRIEND! SAY WE CARELESSLY!” jubilant Tian with a tone that was exactly like our milk commercial.

“They're so excited, anyway!” Meira who was initially upset was intent on withdrawing from Alka but, the guy did not let her. As a result, Meira remained in Alka's arms.

“Gini first. Somebody wants me to talk.”

“What?” Meira looks up at a glance then plays the button of Alka's uniform.

Alka did not answer. He took a breath first with an indecipherable glare at Meira. However, doubt was evident on the flat face of the guy.

“Why diem?” ask Meira.

Sighing again, Alka stroked back Meira's hair. “Gue get scholarship to America.”
