Behind The Lies
First Kiss

It has been almost a year Iyash school in Surabaya and he managed to prove that he can become a class champion, his academic value is always the top. Iyash is proud of himself for being able to beat Dennis who is his toughest rival. Iyash can't beat him in cycling, but at least his brain is thinner than others.

Day after day Iyash passed in Surabaya was impressed ordinary. If it wasn't for Aruna, she might have gone back to Jakarta, even though the girl never thought it existed, even though Iyash had already joined her group. Iyash was also the most superior person in the class, but Aruna still never glanced at him.

It seems like the paper matter became very long until the end of the first grade year. Aruna's proof is reluctant to admit the existence of Iyash. Really if I could go back, Iyash regretted doing that, but already already. Until this moment he also did not return the narrative paper belonging to Aruna and still save it.

Once one afternoon when Iyash was waiting in line for noodle soup in the cafeteria, Iqbal suddenly came to him. “Yash,” call Iqbal while standing next to him.

“Hmm,” Iyash says without turning. The queue was very long, making Iyash lazy to shift.

“You're with Aruna, ‘kan?” ask Iqbal suddenly. Either Jin kind of asked Iqbal to ask Iyash that. “No enemies, ‘kan?”

What kind of question is that? Iyash frowned, hearing Iqbal ask so. Obviously not. Even Iyash was eager to be friends with Aruna, unfortunately the girl did not think of him as a friend.

“Who is ...” Suddenly Iyash's voice choked when he saw Aruna in the front row who was also waiting in line for noodle soup. Iyash didn't want the girl to be big-headed.

“Mas Iqbal fuck,” snorted Iyash.

“Jawab aja, cement, ‘kan?”

“Mots. So why?” Iyash looked at Aruna's back, he hoped that the girl would turn to him, so that he would retract his words because honestly he wasn't serious. However, it seems that Aruna does not care. “Who would like to meet a strange girl,” Iyash added.

“Any?”

“Yes. Girls judes, rarely smile like that so many like, ‘kan, weird.” Maybe he is also a strange guy because he still likes Aruna, when obviously the girl ignored him.

“That's because you don't know him yet, Yash,” Iqbal said.

“Indeed I don't know him. Almost a year I went to school here, where there he greeted me.” Iyash was complaining.

“Yes, if so you go first.”

“Ih, sorry I think if it hit him first it makes goiter.” Iyash put a fist under his chin and immediately Iqbal laughed. Their chatter in the crowd made Iqbal unaware of Aruna's whereabouts.

“Kak Iqbal,” call Aruna. “Introduction.” The girl went through it.

Immediately Iqbal flabbergasted. “Aruna?” His two eyes were bandaged, slowly he set his sights on Iyash. However, Iyash even raised his shoulders. Didn't think long Iqbal immediately went after Aruna. “Run, sorry Brother Iqbal yes,” refer to it slowly.

“Apologies for what yes, Brother?” ask Aruna.

“So Kak Iqbal just about you Iyash, you guys, ‘kan?” Somehow Iqbal again threw the same question. Didn't he feel stupid for having to take care of such a trivial thing. Anyway want to be hostile or friends even though it is definitely not his business, ‘kan?

Iyash to grunt looking at Iqbal. Perhaps he was astonished because the question was so important to Iqbal.

“Kak Iqbal has heard the answer, ‘kan?” ask Aruna.

“So you also don't want to be friends with him?”

“Whatever Aruna is friends with, but if Kak Iqbal's younger cousin doesn't want peace, that's his right.”

Iyash's heart slipped hearing Aruna's words, even Aruna did not mention his name at all. Iyash was grieved when Aruna said so. Honestly he wanted to make friends, but somehow from where, from the beginning Iyash felt that Aruna was not friendly.

In the evening when Iyash was busy learning accompanied by the sound of crickets and the wind, he suddenly gasped at the sound of whispers right in front of the window of Aruna's room. His heart slipped when he saw Iqbal was there, in front of a window under a dark sky and only illuminated by the light from inside Aruna's room.

“Interrupt no?” asked Iqbal while looking up at Aruna who was standing in front of the window. “Against learning?”

Aruna nodded. Whether smiling or not, Iyash hopes Aruna treats Iqbal like she treats him. Unfortunately no. Of course Aruna smiled seeing Iqbal in the dark of the night and greeted him here.

“Sorry if you disturb. Brother Iqbal can't sleep, the thought of that last afternoon.”

Suddenly Aruna wanted to turn to Iyash, Iyash immediately threw away his face and went back to reading the book. He pretended to be unaware of Iqbal's whereabouts.

“Nnothing, Brother, Aruna has forgotten,” said Aruna.

Iyash thinks that Aruna is too easy to forget. It seemed that he was indeed unable to seize Aruna's heart.

“Hmm, uh this is for Aruna,” said Iqbal while advocating a crackle bag.

Iyash turned his head and looked back at them. Wajarkah if Iqbal feels cocky? Because since this afternoon he had been upset by the stupid question of his cousin's brother.

“What is this?” ask Aruna quietly.

“Bread. Just now Kak Iqbal met Mr. Ridwan at the stall, he said Aruna wanted bread. Download, Run.”

“Kak Iqbal Strike Aruna?”

“Receive yes.”

“Ya already Thanks ya.”

“Sama-sama. Oh, yes, tomorrow we go to school. Before Iqbal graduated and away from Aruna, Iqbal wanted to spend time here with Aruna.”

“Mm-what do you mean?” ask Aruna.

“Eh, mm no, no how-gimana.”

“If Bu Mirasih had known, he might have been angry that Brother Iqbal had secretly met Aruna here, at night, again,” Aruna said as she looked around and stopped at Iyash who was using the camera lens to peek at her.

“He must be angry,” cried Iyash while continuing to photograph them, he did not care for Aruna who kept staring at him.

Aruna herself continued to cast a sharp glare, hoping that the annoying young man would stop stealing pictures of herself and Iqbal.

“Dating in a dark place, not afraid of demons,” said Iyash. “No fear of demons?” his lips.

“Iyash!” aruna shouted at the end. “Iyash, delete!”

“Sstt. Don't make a fuss. Later let Brother Iqbal talk to Iyash.” Iqbal tried to calm down.

Aruna's face frowned, but it was a pity that Iyash's camera could not capture the image of the woman's face.

“It's okay, later let Kak Iqbal take care of. Now you rest, do not sleep too night ya.”

Aruna nodded and Iqbal left after greeting. The girl was stunned as she continued to stare at the window of Iyash's room that had just closed because the owner had difficulty easing a gurgle behind his chest.

Aruna was still craped, she decided to jump from the room and ran to the front window of Iyash's room. “Hei coward, come out you, face me here,” cried Aruna confidently. He did not want to know, anyway Iyash had to delete all the photos.

Iyash took a breath and took it out slowly. However, the pounding behind his chest made his body limp, especially after hearing Aruna's voice. Why did he become such a coward?

“You can't sabarin, Yash.” Aruna pelt Iyash's bedroom window with a stone. “If not out I take a big stone and break the glass of your room.”

Behind the closed window, Iyash's lips cut. He was convinced that Aruna was just threatening.

“Yash, I'm serious.” Aruna threw the pebble back. He did not like to be ignored, but he did not realize that all this time he had ignored the existence of Iyash. “You want, hm? I broke this. Heh, coward.”

Slowly Iyash opened the window and put on a face that knew nothing. “Why yes? How fussy?” asked the young man innocently.

“Play stupid again,” grunts Aruna annoyed.

“Thank you for admitting I was smart,” said Iyash sucks.

Aruna glared. If that night Iyash could capture the delicacy of his eyes. He would definitely be very happy as there was another expression from the face of Judes Aruna.

“I'll tell you your perverted behavior with Grandma Alma,” threatened Aruna.

Iyash's heart slipped and instantly his eyes fumbled.

“Indeed I didn't know that you used to photograph me secretly, and the day when you first came to this village I knew that you were photographing my calves, yes, ‘kan?” accuse Aruna.

Iyash took a breath. “Dih, pede, in addition to judes it turns out you are also pretentious yes.”

“Manipulative basis.”

“Jaga, talk to you.” Iyash immediately jumped up and down from the room window, then stood in front of him. He challenged Aruna haughtily. “What are you doing, heh?”

Aruna gasped and continued to retreat as Iyash approached her.

“Try me one more time,” Iyash's pinta while dragging the woman's body against the wall. “What do you think? I'm a pervert, am I? Then what are you yourself?”

Aruna quickly pushed her chest, but Iyash dragged her even more. Aruna immediately crossed both hands in front of her chest as Iyash's chest almost stuck to her body. “You are perverted and you are manipulative,” Aruna said as she pushed back Iyash's chest with both hands still crossed.

Damn, Iyash was holding himself back even more. “Oh, you said I was perverted? You want me to do a scene where Baek Seung Jo kisses Oh Hani?” Iyash knows Naughty Kiss is Aruna's favorite Korean drama because she often hears Aruna and Naya talking about the Korean drama.

“People you!” Aruna pushed back the young man's chest. However, Iyash even kicked through the wooden wall that was right behind Aruna, making the girl gasp and her eyes closed firmly.

“You must want to say that I only threatened, yes, ‘kan?”

“Iyash!” Aruna pushed back Iyash's chest. Damn thousand shit! Iyash kissed her lips and held her back.

Aruna was flabbergasted, both eyes wide open. He thought Iyash was just bluffing and wouldn't actually do it. The momentum behind the chest of the two became accompaniment to silence that night.

Long enough Iyash's lips stuck above the surface of Aruna's lips. Slowly he opens his mouth and **********.

Aruna's angry. “Irrrgh!” As forcefully as he pushed Iyash's chest, the young man let go of his pagutan.

Iyash's heart echoed as he and Aruna both fell silent facing each other. The breaths of both hunted down quickly. However, Iyash panicked as tears fell between Aruna's cheeks.

Aruna wanted to get angry because Iyash had just harassed her and snatched her first kiss. However, all the nerves in his body felt stiff, so there were only tears that continued to fall while staring at Iyash.

“Run, I'm sorry,” said Iyash panicked. “Sorry.” He then held onto both of Aruna's shoulders. “Sorry, Run.”

Somehow Aruna could do nothing, just like Iyash, she was helpless when Iyash did that to her. Iyash has completely taken control of him.

Aruna tiptoed away leaving sorry Iyash. While Iyash himself can only sculpt. Of course he again lost his chance because again he made a mistake to get close to the girl. Now Aruna must hate him even more.
