..."Sepahit Coffee That Does Not Hide The Taste, But Feels Delicious"...


Third Sheet 10 August 1989


The young man who was punished with me said 'Please get angry and shout as loudly as possible, no matter how many people will see you, it was better than continuing to sigh as if everything was fine', and Yes the words were really soothing to me. Thank You


That morning on Thursday, August 7, 1989 at ten to 20 minutes, all students were busy with their routine activities after the two-minute break ended.


Harry and Agung now run down the school hallway past the support poles that make it look like the school building is solid.


His irregular breath signifies a word Ngos-ngosan, making all the students in the class at that time wonder why the two of them like this? and what is the reason until they are bored.


In the end they both sat in his chair, and soon after Lia came to give drinks for the two of them.


"What's up ?" lia asked the two men who were removing their collar and trying to regulate their breath by drinking the mineral water that Lia gave.


"No papa" Harry replied as he adjusted his breath, sweat flooding both of them.


"Harry, Lia" continued Agung who also tried to regulate his breathing. But Harry glared at Agung which made him stifled to speak.


"What's wrong?, why are you guys coming so late like this ?" Ask Lia again, this time Retno also turned her body after being busy copying Lia's biological records.


"I don't know Lia, but it looks like Mr. Imron saw Harry earlier." Great reply.


"Harry and I had skipped school because there was something Harry wanted to do, but not long after that, I don't know why there was Imron sir there who made us reflex to escape and head here" he said and drank the water in front of him


"And Mr. Imron is after us" he continued.


"Well, why are you here, instead of looking dead ?" ask Retno.


"No, Harry had driven Mr. Imron to the market to trick him, and we ended up here at super speed"


"Friends of friends I ask for cooperation, For our delay this if anyone asks please help us." Harry said to his schoolmates as if he understood what Harry meant.


Shortly after that the next subject teacher entered, and without speaking many Lia whose face looked very unhappy could only sit back in her chair following the course of the lesson.


Forty-five minutes passed after that, Great and Harry now looked like his other friend, thanks to the handkerchief given by Lia and Retno make them dry faster and not nutmeg looks shabby.


As expected, Mr. Imron came to their class and asked about the students who were late to enter, fortunately all were willing to work together, which made Mr. Imron's face even more upset but could not do anything, and left their class.


"we are happy Gung" said Harry smiling.


"Hey, how do you trick pickets and school guards?" whispered Retno leaning her body into the chair to sound great.


"Yes jump over the fence, like it came out" said Agung. Actually from the beginning Lia had forbidden them to withdraw, but because it happened that the teacher who entered until the break on the teacher training permit, Lia could not do much to hold them both.


"Ooohhh" retorted Retno, who then continued studying.


******


It had been a few days that Lia was seen trying to smile to others. This is only realized by Harry who then is increasingly becoming his behavior.


"Lia, help us do this exercise, yes, Osis is busy for 17 later, can you help me do it ?" tanya Senioran 11th grade brother who also happens to be her upperclassman when Junior High.


"Eh, yes, brother" replied Lia trying to smile. And the cat left Lia.


"how am I and who am I ?" ask Harry who is already in front of him.


"Come away Ri" replied Lia, and left Harry immediately.


Harry knew this even from the beginning of August, some seniors did treat Lia, as their errand boy in terms of schoolwork, no one paid any heed to this, because Lia was indeed his son liked to help others, no one was concerned about this, Initially. But this is clear according to Harry.


In order for unsuspecting teachers, Lia usually wrote the book first, then gave the book copied by them. And this was certainly realized by Harry, but again I could not do anything, and in the end Lia became rare to their homebase, under the shade tree.


" Rii, you're not helping Lia ?" ask Retno.


" What do I want to do to help, is he who receives it himself, with a smile instead" Harry replied.


"Yes at least you tell people who ask for help, to know themselves and not kebablasan gini" continued Retno. Great was silent, for he knew what Harry was doing.


"Not that Harry did not tell them, it was even" said Agung broke the silence of the three of them. Hearing that reflex Harry saw the Great that made Agung stop his words and silence again.


"Kasian Lia" Retno said.

August 10, 1989 at three in the afternoon, Lia still did not come home from school and was still working on some math problems given to her. This time Harry came to put down a few more books, which made Lia complain long and try to smile at him.


Harry saw that, He saw both of Lia's brownish-black eyeballs, much like storing something. Harry can't leave. He is now sitting next to her.


Lia looked at him, and continued to do the task earlier.


Harry picked up a book, opened it, and turned it up onto the training sheet and answered it, 40 multiple choice questions, an eleventh grade book in Zaki's name.


He answered carefully on the paper sheet that Lia provided to answer all the exercises in the stack of this book.


with the formula he followed the answer to the problem was B but he crossed out C in the exercise book.


so next.


Harry glanced at the clock at five o'clock in the afternoon and only a few more books remained, he continued to work on the problem as the first answer was written on a sheet A in the exercise book in Coret B. Harry glanced at Lia.


Seen her tears gathered under her eyes, almost falling.Sliced her heart saw Lia like that, the tears began to walk on her cheeks towards her chin and finally fell down, but before falling towards the book that Lia had scratched, she said, Harry reflexively caught those tears which made Lia startled and saw the fragrance.


"Why me, why ?"He asked while wiping away the tears that he could not stop.


"Aduuhhh why?" Ask again but the tears are getting more and more derasss


"hahahaha, why me ?"while trying to smile at Harry, and wipe his tears.Seeing that, Harry undressed his school shirt and gave it to Lia.


"what's this for ?" tanyakanya.


"Salp your tears with it" Harry replied briefly, which left Lia even more astonished.


"You can't make everyone happy Lia"


"By helping them, and then they smile with you, and think you're so good, you can't keep Lia, '" Harry breathed in


"Don't I ever tell you, I'm here.


"You, you are not alone, there is also Retno and Great"


"You should refuse, get angry and shout loudly to these people, no matter how many people will see you, because to us, it is for us, it's better than watching you sigh and smile as if everything's okay" she said, then changed her seat and turned her back to Lia.


There was a great sobbing behind Harry, but he could only keep him company, and he was sure Lia could get through this.


"We're here first yes Gung, wait until they're a new silence we enter" said Retno.


"Okay" she replied briefly while hearing Lia's great cry inside the room.
