Andra did not believe the relaxed answer that came out of Rexha's mouth. He was also shocked because the woman did not speak as rudely as usual.
"Hmm, why don't you go to school?" Andra just immediately asked what had been stuck in his heart. He sat down next to Rexha, wondering if Rexha would be as angry as ever.
However, Rexha was silent.
"My mother is dead" Rexha replied so softly.
"What?" Andra was so shocked. "Your mother died? It hurt?" Andra asked as she closed her eyes briefly, regretting knowing the news now?
Why are school children silent? There should be social assistance or compensation from the school if there are students who grieve.
"Now it doesn't hurt anymore. I'd rather see my mother go" Rexha said with a wry smile.
"That's why you've been coming home so often?" ask Andra again, starting to relate why Rexha always comes home quickly and always goes to the pharmacy after school.
"Yes, I went to the pharmacy to buy my mother's medicine."
"You?" Andra increasingly disbelieving, his face must now be flushed with embarrassment, it turns out Rexha knew if all this time he followed her.
Rexha gave a big smile, barely laughing. He then took something from his bag. A little storybook, then hand it over to Andra.
"This is, for you," said Rexha handing over a book called 'Successful Men's Secrets'
"What's this?"
"I see, you like to read. This was my mother when I was working in Jakarta" Rexha said with a smile, making Andra not believe that Rexha could smile like that.
You could say it was Rexha's smile after 4 months of school.
"Then why did you give it to me?" Andra frowned not understanding.
"As a memento, I think this is the last time we'll ever meet" Rexha said, looking down and hiding her grim face.
"You're moving out?" Andra immediately held Rexha's hand after hearing the woman's words.
Andra was certainly very surprised to hear that. How Rexha would just leave before she said anything to the woman. And why would Rexha have to move?
"There's no reason for me to go to school anymore, Ndra. I want to go, hopefully when we meet later, you have become a successful person," said Rexha smiled sincerely at Andra, for the first time in her life, he looked directly at Andra's very handsome face.
Andra closed her eyes briefly, she then held onto Rexha's arms tightly.
"I love you, Xha."
"I am too." For the first time, Rexha ventured to look directly at Andra's face.
Andra looked at Rexha in disbelief, she thought the woman would curse her for being so presumptuous. But it turns out Rexha has the same feelings as her.
"I love you too, but I ask you, Andra, to remove that feeling of love. This is the last day we meet, I want when we meet you will be a successful person" Rexha added.
"Are you also going to promise to forget me?" Andra clasped her own hand, just as she was getting a love reply, but within seconds Rexha wanted her to erase her feelings.
Rexha did not reply, she could only look at Andra with sadness.
Seeing Rexha's eyes, Andra pushed herself to pull Rexha's nape and kissed her lips. He only thought that this was the last time they would meet and he wanted to give her one thing that Rexha would remember for the rest of her life. It was the first time Andra kissed, and so did Rexha.
The woman who was always cold followed her heart by letting Andra kiss her. After quite a while, they let go and looked the other way.
"Yes" said Rexha, nodding slowly, knowing this was their last meeting before she decided to quit school.
Andra held Rexha's hand, not caring if at this moment all the students in their school were looking at her with shocked eyes. Andra wants to make memories as sweet as possible before they part. I don't know, Andra still doesn't feel willing if Rexha doesn't go to school there anymore.
As long as they came home, there was not much chatter created, both of them were busy suppressing the love that was so passionate at the time.
"Here you go, get here. Your car won't get in" Rexha told Andra to drop him off in front of the alley.
"I deliver until home" Andra said firmly.
Rexha could not resist, she finally let Andra drive her home.
However, before he reached home, a loud voice sounded that made Rexha startled.
"Basar kid doesn't know it's lucky! Where have you been, here!" A stocky man dragged Rexha's hand until her hand on Andra slipped.
"Hey, what the fuck are you? Release Rexha!" Andra immediately defended her, holding Rexha's hand so as not to be dragged around like that.
"Who are you! Don't interfere in people's affairs, seek your death!" the man hit Andra until the man slid back.
"Mr!" rexha shouted so shocked to see what her father was doing.
"Shut up! Want me to make you die like your mother? Where now give money!" Mr. Rexha rebuked his daughter loudly.
"I'm not working, it's noon"
"Child to lol! All over work even busy courting you huh! Here, it must be loved to die you." Mr. Rexha was so angry, the man smacked Rexha in the face and dragged her into his cramped rented house.
"Rexha!" Andra was so shocked, not expecting any old man to act so rude, even though Rexha was female.
However, what Andra saw was no more terrifying than when Andra heard Rexha's heart-wrenching cry. Andra had no idea what had happened inside the house, she could only hear and cry like a loser. Asking for the help of the surrounding people, no one dared to interfere because his father Rexha could be more angry later.
"Mr! Sorry, pain ... Arghhhhhhh!"
"Fucking kid! Gob lok, dying to not bother people!"

Dugh
Bugh
Andra grabbed her hair in frustration, hearing that the woman she loved was beaten up by her own father but she could do nothing. Now that Andra knew where Rexha got new wounds on her body, it turns out that every day Rexha was always tortured by her father if she came home without money.
"Rexha ...."
Andra waits like a bo doh man, he wants to save Rexha but before her father leaves he does nothing. He's still a high school boy who doesn't have that much guts. Upon seeing Rexha's father leave, Andra just entered the house and saved Rexha who was curled up with battered body.
From then on, Andra promised to make this woman happy. But in fact until now he is precisely what makes Rexha continue to be hurt.
Happy Reading's.
