CHASING THE LOVE OF THE TEACHER
Chapter 27 Friends Confirm

At 5 pm, Cilla and five Pandavas say goodbye to Pak Trimo and Bik Mina. Both parents were happy to be visited by the employer's child, whom they considered to be their own child, especially this time Cilla came along with five men who were his new friends.

The five men, called Pandawa by Cilla, seem to be very considerate and caring and appreciative of Cilla even though she is the only woman in the group. And most importantly for Mr. Trimo and Bik Mina, all five can make Cilla laugh a lot.

“The Father of Non Cilla, Mas Arjuna. Please take care of him at school as his teacher,” Mr. Trimo patted Arjuna on the shoulder with a smile.

“May I be able to carry out the mandate of Mr.” said Arjuna with the same smile.

Slowly the car left the residence of Mr. Trimo and Bik Mina. Sitting position changes because they want to be more comfortable due to satiety.

Luki chose the back seat, in the middle row there was Theo and Boni, Erwin remained next to the driver and in the first row, Cilla was only alone with Arjuna.

Just 15 minutes after the car left Mr. Trimo's house, the soft snoring sounds began to sound as simple as the concert of the five men. Only Kirana and the driver are still awake.

The streets are slightly jammed, because office activities continue to run as usual plus the increase in the number of local tourists who are vacationing in Semarang and its surroundings. At 6.20 hours the car entered the hotel on Pandanaran street. Cilla deliberately chose a hotel location close to Simpang Lima.

“You out eating again or how, Om ?” Tanya Cilla after finishing with the check-in business on the front desk.

The five prises sat waiting on the sofs as long as Cilla took care of their room order.

“Capek and still full, Cil. Can I book a trip to the hotel ?” Boni with his scuffed face looks comfortable on the sofa.

“Can. What do you want to eat ? Cilla later setin.”

“Like you, Cil. We believe in your taste.” Erwin Sahut.

“Then Om can directly enter the room. Cilla asked for connecting room to make it easier.” Cilla handed over two key holders to Theo and Boni who were standing nearby.

The five men followed Cilla into the elevator to the 9th floor. The faces wanted to shower immediately and lay down on the bed.

“Om nobody smokes, right ?”

Erwin and Luki raise their hands as a sign that they are smokers even if they do not have to.

“Sorry if Cilla book a non-smoking room, let us get one floor.”

“No problem Cil, we do not every time we have to smoke, kok,” said Erwin.

The elevator arrived at the 9th floor. Cilla looked at the room number instructions on the left and right after exiting the elevator door.

“Happy rest om all and Mr. Arjuna,” Cilla raised his hand. “Cilla Room on the right side, if om on the left side.”

They nodded and waved at Cilla who pulled her suitcase in the opposite direction.

Cilla had just returned from the minimarket when her eyes caught the figure of Arjuna standing outside the hotel lobby holding a mobile phone.

It can be ascertained that the prospective teacher was talking to someone.

His mind wanted to get away and his stupid time with Arjuna's affairs, but why were his heart and feet out of sync ? Seeing Arjuna's body movements that look upset and emotion, making Cilla's legs instead cover towards the wall close to the position Arjuna stands. This is the second time, Cilla stole Arjuna's conversation.

But not for long the conversation was interrupted, even before Cilla heard clearly what was being discussed.

Finally Cilla continued her steps up the stairs to the lobby. Unexpectedly, it turns out that Arjuna is still standing at the end of the stairs. Cilla was surprised when she saw Arjuna looking at her with eyes full of anger.

“Where are you from?” Asked Arjuna with a fierce tone.

Cilla was glued and confused as to what to answer. It is impossible frankly that he stole Arjuna's conversation despite finally failing.

“Ngapain shopping nights?” Arjuna glanced at the cloth bag in Cilla's hand.

Cilla smiled, why be confused to answer Arjuna. It is true that it runs out of minimarket near there.

“Eh.. ngg... out of bread, Sir,” replied Cilla nervously.

“For me, I am really hungry,” Arjuna immediately grabbed the cloth bag that Cilla brought before he had time to ban it.

Arjuna immediately glared at the contents of the cloth bag, which was none other than the woman's special “roti”. Arjuna thrust back the cloth bag to Cilla.

His face was scuffed because of the scowl. Must be upset about phone problems and hungry stomachs.

“Bapak is really hungry ? Want me to eat ?” With a stubborn heart, Cilla tried to offer her good intentions.

“There is indeed good food near here ?”

Cilla nodded and pointed to the left of the hotel.

“In Simpang Lima many five feet are quite famous among the people of Semarang. Not far on foot.”

“I take the wallet first,” Arjuna is ready to enter the hotel again to take his wallet.

“No need, sir,” reflex Cilla held Arjuna's arm. “I buy tonight. Pay later if it fits in Jakarta aja.”

“Boyfriend pissed off again ?”

Arjuna turned his head and looked at Cilla while frowning. Their feet continued to slowly move.

“You nguping ?” Cilla shook her head.

“The face of the guy who received the phone immediately tangled like the Father, usually because of annoyed work or girlfriend problems. School again holiday, so I guess the problem of girlfriend.”

“Sok knows,” Arjuna thaws.

“If my guess is correct, you will have to change my deal tonight to double. If wrong, I love free and you can eat as much.”

Arjuna mndengus annoyed and slanted.

“The strength of the school's owner's child,” ledek Arjuna.

“Tante Luna why else ?” Not caring about Arjuna's lead, Cilla instead directly asked the main culprit.

Arjuna was speechless, his mind was in a mess because of a fight with Luna.

“Pak Arjuna, I am a fun friend to confide in, you know. Aja sir who likes nethink with me, so his mind is always ugly about me.”

They have arrived at Simpang Lima. Arjuna looked at Cilla.

“Where are we?”

“There is good food ahead there,” Cilla pointed towards the front.

Arjuna took Cilla by the hand and led her across the street. Traffic around Simpang Lima does not sleep, understand this place is often a culinary tourist destination and the center of the city of Semarang.

Arjuna's hand remained holding Cilla while asking their destination. Cilla's hot cold.

“The father did not forget, right?”

Arjuna turned his head while raising his eyebrows next door. His gaze followed Cilla's eye movements that were even looking down.

“Sorry,” Arjuna immediately let go of his grasp.

“Nothing, Sir. I'm happy to feel like someone cares and cares,” Cilla chuckles. ”Today I spent more time on vacation myself because Febi and Lili went with their parents.”

There was a sad tone at the end of Cilla's sentence. Arjuna smiled. He also remembered Amanda. The only sister was used to whining to take their parents away on vacation when they went to class.

“Indeed Mr Darmawan never took you on vacation ?”

Cilla shook her head. “Since mami died, papi was busy with her regrets and her work. I went on holiday to Japan in 8th grade. Until there, I was instead entrusted to the house of papi friends who live in Japan and invited to vacation with them.”

“Keep your holiday ?”

“Normally invited by Mr. Trimo with Bik Mina streets around Java, and most often to Semarang because they return home to see children. But since I was in High School and Mr. Trimo retired, I just spent a holiday in Jakarta. Work in PRJ, Sir.”

“Hah ? Working at PRJ ? Are you still short of money?”

Cilla laughed and shook her head. “Rather than join at home, sir. After all, if long alone becomes lonely and if lonely, the mind so run everywhere. That's why I always look for busyness.”

Arjuna nodded his head. When chatting with Cilla despite being full of debate, Arjuna always finds new things that make him unconsciously amazed.

“To there, Sir.” Cilla pointed towards the tent stall that was across the street.

Again Arjuna took Cilla's hand and kept it safe until it was across.

They entered a tent offering barren rice. Arjuna himself was new to this type of food, but he according to because his stomach was hungry. Moreover, he includes people who want to try any food as long as it is worth eating.

“Actually this barren rice is not a typical Semarang food but originally from Pati. But maybe because it is still the same Central Java, this food is among the favorites in Semarang.” Cilla explained the food that had just been delivered to their table.

Arjuna enjoyed their order. Every now and then Cilla laughed at Arjuna's hasty way of eating. There was a bit of happiness in his heart, being able to sit down and chat with Arjuna without any debate as usual.

“If the five of us do not come with you, then you have your own vacation here ?” Tanya Arjuna who just finished her second portion.

“Iya Sir, it's only 2 nights. In a quiet house, because Bik Mina, my mother and my interlocutor, returned home for the next two weeks. There are Mbak Imah and Mbak Wati, Bang Dirman and Bang Toga, but different from Bik Mina.”

Cilla took a tissue and helped wipe Arjuna's sweaty face. The man was silent and convinced that what Cilla was doing was just a form of regular attention, just like Amanda's attention to him.

“Eh sorry, sir,” Cilla immediately pulled his hand when Arjuna just remained silent and realized that his hand was on Arjuna's face.

“Sorry Sir, sorry. I don't mean anything. Don't nethink with me,” Cilla laughs clumsyly.

The girl turned the other way in embarrassment, but Arjuna caught a clear liquid in her eyes

Arjuna remembered the night that Cilla was so angry when he said that Cilla was a bad boy because he was still wandering through the night. Arjuna again saw the same wound tonight in Cilla's gaze.
