"Morning is full of joy. The Sun's rays warm every gill that will start the day. Hope happiness will come to envelop the heart ...."
"Please don't be a poetic. It's still morning" interrupted Andra from behind.
He felt his ears would be deaf if he heard the voice of the twin. Trying to be poetic with a seductive tone, even though his voice is flattering.
They just got to school. Today the twins have to leave in between, because the motorbike used is in the workshop. Make Andra's mood a little slumped.
Andra was just about to break into the school lobby, if only Indra hadn't pulled the handle of the bag. He turned around and was about to hit his twin brother, but the snooze was done. They don't believe what they see.
Arya just entered the school gate using a Honda CB150X motorcycle. Not because of the vehicle that made Andra gawk, but the person sitting in the back seat. Who else if Sukma.
He did not expect his best friend would listen to the advice of his twin brother. Is it possible that Arya is plain or worse less clever? How can he obey the words of Indra which is an apostasy.
Waiting for the two of them to come, Andra struck Indra on the shoulder. Wiggling his index finger in front of his face. Give a warning to your brother.
Instead of being intimidated, Indra smiled mockingly. Though his intention yesterday he only wanted to be ignorant to Arya. He did not expect that this morning he could see his advice being used directly.
Before coming home yesterday he said that Arya should pick up Sukma. This further reinforces the evidence that the two are dating. So that no more girls will bother Arya.
How to know that Arya will obey his words. Sukma's house was in line with that man. Not a loss also gives a lift to a friend who has helped, right?.
"Hello new partner," said Indra loudly armpit Arya and Sukma began to approach.
Everyone is watching them. Andra just attacked the twin to get into the classroom. Embarrassed by Indra's loud voice, they became the center of attention. Arya and Sukma followed behind.
Only a quarter of the journey, Indra began to be ignorant again. The man twisted his body and approached Arya.
"Gandeng dong Sukma's hand!" Indra glanced at the hand of Arya and Sukma who were next to each other, but at a distance.
Arya frowned. He asked, "why should we go together?"
Indra clucked with Aryan naivety. Actually what is true if the person in front of this man. Or is this one guy who is too innocent because he never dated?
"Gemes for a long time. If the courtship is hard." Indra. He grabbed the hands of both of them and just put them together.
Along the way to class, everyone looked on in disbelief. For those who do not see the events of yesterday, must think that the news circulating is gossip. However, seeing Arya and Sukma linking fingers together made them sigh involuntarily.
Arriving in Sukma class is pulled by Alma. The gossip queens of the various classes began to swarm. Arya feels guilty for involving her girl friend.
"Am I that popular?" asked Arya who was creepy because many pairs of eyes were lined up along the window of the classroom.
"You really don't know if it's popular, I just think you're not really interested." Indra sat in front of Arya. How could all this time he had not been aware of many who liked him.
Arya shook her head. Makes all the guys there sigh tired. Being the target of one school girl, but never knew it.
The first lesson bell begins. Everyone back to their class. Sukma takes a breath of relief because apart from the endless entanglement of questions.
All went peacefully during the time of teaching and learning. But, the excitement again occurs at lunch time. In addition to Indra, the more intense makes the new pair more friendly.
Arya glanced at Sukma who was also eating his own somay. Squinting eyes towards Indra who is like very enthusiastic about this pretend relationship.
"Why?" Indra shifted the chair backwards when she saw Arya's intense gaze on him. The alarm of the danger sign kept him away from the reach of his friend.
Arya turned her gaze back to the chicken noodle bowl. While Indra breathed a sigh of relief. I don't know why his friend's gaze was so deadly.
"Eat him do not be ignorant," said Andra after kicking the legs of his twin who blocked the table.
Arya rolled up the noodles, then pointed them forward. Sukma who was suddenly in sodori became aghast. Trying to see the situation around him.
All eyes glanced here. It would be awkward if he didn't take Arya's bribe. Sukma tucked her hair behind her ear.
His face advanced forward in order to reach Arya's mouthful. Sukma's eyes widened, but his lips curved upwards forming a smile.
He looked at each other with Arya. Suddenly, the man's hand came forward. Everyone held their breath with what Arya would do next.
Everyone looks forward to events like romance scenes in movies. The sukma even holds its breath, forgetting to chew.
Arya patted Sukma's cheek that was bulging because of the noodles that had not been swallowed. The girl breathed a sigh of relief as the man in front of her refocused with food.
Indra raised his hand as if giving up. He shook loudly in front of Andra. Yesterday he asked Arya to feed Sukma, but the incident that just now was not he who asked.
A bowl of chicken noodles runs out on Arya's gluttony. He reached out to help Sukma stand up. They walk side by side along the school hallway.
"You know, if it's uncomfortable we can end it." Arya started the conversation without seeing her interlocutor.
"It's actually okay. Just please let me know if you want to do something." Sukma stopped and gave a faint smile.
Arya nodded her head in understanding. He looked at Sukma's free-swinging hand. Scratch his head for a moment and look the other way.
"If I hold your hand?" suddenly asked Arya after a long silence.
"Sure, please." Sukma raised his hand in front of Arya's face. The man happily linked their hands together.
Both of them were smiling with jokes. Not paying attention to the number of people who meet them. If they were a real couple, someone would say, "It feels like the world belongs to both, the others just contract."
Flashback off
"So, you guys want to try getting back together?" ask Indra who is still full of food.
Arya glared with a flat face. If you remember, why he could be that innocent. Follow everything Indra says just like that.
Yeah, at least the SMA period is calmer. He did not receive any more love letters or statements from the girls.
After graduation, he and Sukma clarify their relationship again. All that happens is a form of help between friends. There is no romance between the two.
