"Assalamualaikum," the voice from the phone came from across the village.
"Waalaikumsalam" he replied slowly
"You're okay, right?"
"Yes,"
"Why answer slowly?"
"My mom's in front of the room"
Phone turned off.
Zinda always fretted when contacted by her lover at night. He was afraid of being caught by his parents, especially his father who always forbade Zinda to be friends with a man.
For 5 years they had a hidden love. Because Zinda still can not establish the heart to express about her feelings to her family. Fear always enveloped Zinda's heart.
He can only look and talk with his girlfriend when he is at school.

The sound of chicken crow echoed in Zinda's ear, waking her from her subconscious. The weather that day was not friendly. The morning sun is covered with black clouds. However, Zinda kept rushing out of bed to fulfill her obligations as a high school student.
He doesn't care about the weather outside. He continued to walk through the fields and weeds that were swaying in the wind. On the way, he is approached by Zaydan, his lover. They leave school on foot, because the distance is not far from the place they live.
Now drops by drops of rain fell on their bodies, flashing hearts that radiated love, they ran away to find a place to shelter. But there is no place that makes them avoid rain drops. The rain was getting heavier, the lightning was blaring nonstop, now the typhoon came along and toppled some trees.
Now they run small again, they are resigned to the rain flushed the body that is still in a gray uniform. Among the leaves that swayed in the wind, the lightning greeted each other, the rain grew increasingly thunderous, the Pair of Eyes staring at each other sharply full of warmth.
"I love you" he said
"What,? What did you say, then,? I didn't hear it."
"Hey, how are you raining like this,? Yok hunted in." shouted Radit who came right in front of them in a white avanza car. His loud voice overcame the roar of rain until his suqra was heard very clearly in Zinda and Zaydan's ears. They rushed into the white car with their wet clothes. Arriving at school, they went straight to their respective lockers to replace the dry uniforms.
Shortly after, the bell rang.
All the students are going to class.
The lesson now begins, The lesson this time is a very weakened and very difficult lesson for Zinda, namely Physics. The other with Zaydan. All the subjects he mastered.
Zaydan is the perfect student in school. In addition to his handsome face, handsome body, and narrow eyes, he was also the most intelligent student. It has become the high end of the school name with its talents who have always been champions in all competitions. Both from the sub-district, provincial, and even national levels.
Time keeps going.
Zaydan was able to solve 30 physics problems in just 1 hour.
Zinda just stared at the paper with formulas that she did not understand with a blank look. The answer paper was still neatly and cleanly spread in front of him. There's no ink stain on it. He smiled blandly as he threw his gaze at the classmates who were busy working.
"Hey," said Zaydan
Silence without a word was Zinda's choice to respond to Zaydan's reprimands who were beside her.
"Bengong aja from earlier, gih njerjakkan, bertar again rest."
"Ask what?"
"Why the hell, a handsome Zaydan, super smart, good anyway. I love a village girl, stupid__"
"Hey ... Hey, look at me." Zay scolded and cut Zinda's words. Turning Zinda's shoulders back, and raising her head to look into her narrow eyes.
"As you know, I don't look at you physically or IQ, you want to be ugly, stupid, no problem. Even if you are blind, I will be your eyes. If you are paralyzed, I will be your hands and feet. If you can't hear, I'll be your ear. If you can't speak, I'll be your mouth. Because my heart has chosen you to be my first and last love. Also the mother of my children later. Because of the whiteness of my heart I have become a melt to you."
Zinda turned around while looking at the paper containing formulas with a red face and a heart that thrashed in love.
Teeeett ... ...
The break bell rings.
"I'll go to the cafeteria first!" pamit Zaydan's.
Zinda nodded her head. Dare not look at Zaydan's handsome face.
Zaydan immediately went to the cafeteria to buy rice and returned to class.
"Yuk, eat first" he asked
"Well, what's eating here, then,?"
"I know, you're hungry, right,?"
Zinda threw her sweet smile as a sign of "Yes"
"You keep working, let me take a bribe"
At first Zinda was still shy of the cat to receive a mouthful of rice that headed towards her lips. However, finally the rice feed by Zaydan began to fill his empty stomach which had been thrashing. At the last mouthful Zinda swept her gaze outwards to make sure no one saw Zaydan's behavior towards her.
"She" call Zaydan
"Yes"
"I'm sorry" said Zaydan, taking a grain of rice stuck in Zinda's little lips.
"Ehem .. , so sweet really" the new Radit snapping surprised the two of them.
"Eh, Radit" they said unintentionally together, making the two look at each other.
"Oh, yes, this is for you" said Zaydan, giving his dirty dishes to melt the atmosphere.
"It's really you Dan, but for the sake of princess Ndil and prince Ndul, I'd be willing to be told anything" Radit said with his face while bowing his head like a slave style to his master.
Princess Ndil and Prince Ndul are nicknames of Radit for Zinda and Zaydan.
