Am I Different?

Am I Different?
(S3) Sandwich


The first day of the final school exam, it's pretty complicated because last night wasn't enough for me to study. Moreover, plus wake up late and do not re-read the lesson today. I was a little troubled for the first day. The final exam bell had rung, a feeling of relief felt.


"Huft, finally," I said as I leaned into the chair.


"First test, directly mathematics. Uh, it's like, a really big puyeng," said the Goddess.


"Here you go, go home first. There's an appointment, bye." I put my feet away from my friends.


I walked quickly to the parking lot, of course, after my other friends.


"Where are you going?" ask Selly.


I looked up, smiling without answering their questions.


"Din, who's the deal? Follow, yes!" shout Goddess.


"No! No need to come," I said, while pedaling a bicycle leaving them.


From a distance, Dandi was waiting in front of the school gate. I approached him.


"Hi, sorry to wait so long, huh?" my many.


Dandi smiled as he said, "No, no. It's just here."


"Come, where are we going?" my question, it feels awkward. My heart feels faster. Maybe it's the first time you're near and with a guy, so it's normal to feel like this.


"I-I'm coming with you." Dandi got on his bike.


As for me, hurrying to pedal the bike and Dandi walked parallel to me. Sometimes we looked at each other, even though there was not a single word coming out of our mouths.


"Kok we become silent-gini, yes," said Dandi while scratching his head.


"Oh, yes. How's school?" ask me awkwardly.


"Hehehe, it's hard enough. Our schedule is the same, maths isn't it? Oh yeah, sorry about this morning. I was in a hurry, until I didn't see" said Dandi.


"Hehehe, it's okay." Dinar replied timidly.


Highlight Dandi's eyes make Dinar feel like flying. In his heart, 'Why is my heart beating like this. Why this?'


Unintentionally, Dinar stared at Dandi with a sharp look in his eyes. Dandi's smile made Dinar fascinated with her.


"Hey, why?" ask Dandi while patting Dinar on the shoulder.


Dinar glared, then replied, "Eh, that's okay. You didn't go home? Want to come to my house? Studying together?" ask Dinar.


Dandi smiled again while nodding his head. Not long after, they finally arrived at Dinar's house.


"Let's go in" invited Dinar when entering the yard area of his house.


"This is your house? Not far from my grandmother's house, either" said Dandi.


"Oh, yeah? Where is it?" ask Dinar.


"The big road placement is still straight, anyway. I take you there sometime. I'm here with my Grandma, because my parents are in town" said Dandi, trailing behind Dinar.


*****


Dandi here lives with his grandmother. His parents were in another city with him. When Dandi was five years old, his parents deliberately brought him here. He did not know the reason why his parents abandoned him in the village. Rarely visited and notified. Dandi during school here, a dime was never financed by his parents but his grandmother's money.

"Please, sit. I change clothes first," said Dinar.


When Dandi sat alone and Dinar walked towards his room, at that time Kak Dita came over


"Eh, there's a guest. Where's the dinar? How to be left alone?" ask Brother Dita.


"Says he's still changing. I'm Dandi, Brother." Dandi shook Kak Dita's hand.


"I'm Dita, Dinar's Brother. You're not Dinar's schoolmate, are you? Because the uniform is different," said Kak Dita.


Dinar came and said to his brother.


"No, he's different from school. This morning we accidentally hit a time collision at a crossroads. All right, I'll play here. Consider it a sign of my apology," said Dinar, while carrying a book.


Dita walked into the kitchen.


"I make a drink first, wait yes," said Kak Dita.


"No need to bother, sister," replied Dandi.


When Kak Dita walked across from Dinar, Kak Dita stared fixedly at Dinar.


"Cie, dating. I'm aduin to Mama," sneered Kak Dita with a soft look.


Dinar pouted while holding back wanting to avenge her brother. "Tell me, brother. Don't want to buy it up front."


Dinar approached Dandi with a shy smile.


"Ma-sorry, yes. My brother is indeed a rada recess," said Dinar while sitting in a chair opposite Dinar.


"Nothing, really. Rame yes, if there's a meeting at home. Unfortunately, I'm just the same as my grandmother," said Dandi with a forced smile.


"Your parents?" ask Dinar who did not know the ins and outs of the Dandi family before.


"In town, my grandmother's single mom. My grandfather died when my father was in school" Dandi explained.


"Sorry, yes," said Dinar, at the same time with Kak Dita giving drinks and leaving them both in the living room.


"It's okay, really," said Dandi. He decided to tell his family about it to Dinar. He also did not understand, for some reason he felt confident with Dinar. He was sure, if the person in front of him would keep everything he said at this time. During this time, Dandi was a quiet personal figure. He refuses to interact with others. He chose to keep all the problems in his life alone. However, he did not understand inexplicably why he had just this time told the new hang person he knew.


"Patient, yes. If you want to play here again, okay. We're friends now?" Dinar.


"Thank you, yeah. You want to hear my story. Uh, why am I being a whiny. Shame to know," said Dandi.


"Dandi, it's okay, kok.it's natural that if we have sadness, we are only human. Ordinary sad, happy with sudden. If you want a story, please. I'm glad to hear you. Oh yeah, drink first. Until I forget," said Dinar.


"Eh, thanks. So ngerepotin, sorry about that. I hit even you," said Dandi.


"God, I'm the same. Wake up and eat time on the road. Hahaha," Dinar laughed out loud.


Dandi smiled when he saw Dinar could laugh. He did not expect, getting a new friend who looks cool. Inner Dandi, 'Have I been too engrossed in my world so far that I didn't realize on the outside that I was still a good person and cared about me. Just this time, I had a friend who understood me.'
