Crescencia
Chapter 17

"Busett-busett, you craft what do you do?" Ara who had just entered the class was immediately amazed to see Crescencia struggling seriously with many books on her desk.

"Today's feeling was no duty" Ara said, sitting next to Crescencia after slamming her bag on the table.

Crescencia looked to be breathing deeply. Stabbing his temple using the tip of his pencil. Partially his sweat has been pouring out due to his brain forced to think hard.

"Ra, you know how this number two works?" Crescencia handed Dika physics that he could not.

Ara's head looks mangosteen. Read about it carefully. His face looked convincing, making Crescencia wait patiently.

"I don't know, hehe." Ara grinning the horse. Replied a long snort from Crescencia. "Lo can't let alone me, Cha."

Crescencia pulled the book back, then closed it. And the only way he can solve that problem is to ask Bu Rani, as his physics teacher.

"Btw, that's a maple for the eleventh grade, Cha. Why are you also tired of the work?"

"It's a diligent Achaea." Crescencia stuffed two of Dika's books into her bag. Because it can be dangerous if Ara to read the name of the identity in the book.

"Busett!" Ara bobbing head. His eyes glimmered in amazement for his theme.

"Oh yes. Cha, after school, you can stop by the house, right? Mama made chocolate cake, you know. You are invited to the house. As a form of thank you for writing me yesterday."

"Well, seriously?" Crescencia looked happy. "Yes can. So good is Ara's mother."

Ara smile. Then turn the head when someone enters the class with a pouting sound.

"Good morning everybody!" the super cry of the bell was not at all touched by the class. Everything just nodded no matter.

Nando walked over to Crescencia. "Tomorrow so, right?" nando asked while sitting in the front seat of Crescencia, because the owner of the place had not come.

"So dong!" Crescencia was impatient. Tomorrow is my first time to the beach. He was eager to feel the sea breeze gust along with the soothing sound of the waves pounding.

"Ciee, where are you two going?" Ara looked curious by looking at the two friends.

"To the beach, Ra! Ara wants to come?" tawar Crescencia.

"Well, how come, when?"

"Tomorrow." Nando answered.

"Well, tomorrow I have a family event. At any time," said Ara changed the look of her face to be unpleasant.

"Well, what a pity. Yaudah sometime we go three, yeah! Ask Zikri to do it too."

"Ngapain also you invite that brat!" nando asked disapproving of Crescencia's idea.

"Well, dong, Nando! Let's get more and more."

"Burn the house here for a lot of people!"

Crescencia glared. lowered both her lips downwards.

Nando grunting. Then rise from his seat. "Tomorrow at noon I'll pick you up."

Crescencia. Bend his index finger to the tip of the thumb to form the letter O there.

...°°°...

The first lesson begins. Dika had seen so serious about understanding the rows of formulas and numbers in his book. Suddenly he remembered something. He also opened the last page of the book. Just then, his lips smiled faintly looking at the insolent scribbles there.

Dika shook his head. Laughing at Crescencia's very bad handwriting. Dika then handed over his task book to Sari who was assigned by Mr. Romi to collect math assignments on his desk. Because this morning, all the teachers were having an impromptu meeting, making their first and second hours empty.

"Lo's been so diligent lately. Abis dapet wangsit, lo?" sari received the book. Dika was just silent. Even the boy did not stare at the sari at all. Sari could only grunt rudely aware of that attitude.

Dika grabbed his vibrating phone. There was a notification from the members of the Black House. Dika then opened a message sent by Bima. Read the message carefully.

"Don't forget tomorrow's the same promise we made. Take the girl as a gift. If you run away, it means you're a badass, Dik!"

Dika squeezed his phone firmly. His jaw immediately hardened with a look of eyes that turned furious. He did not reply to the message. His pride began to be played. And a Dika cannot remain silent. Swearing in his heart, as soon as possible, he would make Bima fall apart in his hands.

...°°°...

The clock breaks ringing loudly. After eating his lunch in class, Crescencia rushed to the teacher's room to meet Bu Rani. As she approached the doorway, she only realized that Ellen had not attended school today. Crescencia exhaled a long breath. His lips smiled crazily considering the incident yesterday afternoon.

"Is Ellen sick, huh?" bantin Crescencia is sad.

Crescencia continued its advance. His hand smothered Dika's package book. While walking down the corridor, a pair of Crescencia eyes narrowed to look at the person he seemed to recognize. That person looked in a hurry as he carried many books in his hands.

"Groof!" call Crescencia a little run up to the guy. The man who became his girlfriend and his first ex at this school.

Automatic turn. His face was quite surprised to see Crescencia running towards him. His body immediately nodded. It had been a long time since he had seen and spoken to the girl.

"Where are the puppets going?" Crescencia opened her voice to wake Galang from his daydream.

"Eh, Cha!" The gulp down his salivary. I still feel nervous if I am around the girl. Because honestly, Galang still harbors feelings for this girl.

"You go to the teacher's room to meet the children's duties at Bu Rani's desk," Galang replied withstanding his nervousness. In fact, his palms immediately broke out in wet sweat.

"That's the same! Icha also wants to see Rani. If so, let Icha help Galang bring a book. Kasian Galang kayak object."

"Eh, no, Cha! I can do it." Galang slightly smothered the books when Crescencia's hand was about to take them.

"Father, Galang. Let Icha take half." Crescencia smile. And that smile was able to make Galang's chest pounding. He recalls when Crescencia took some books in his hand.

"Thank you, Cha." Galang smiled. Staring fixedly at Crescencia's bright face in her eyes.

"Together, Galang."

The two now walk along the corridor. Throughout it too Galang unceasingly glanced at the face of the girl next to him.

"By the way, what do you need to see Ms Rani?" Galang asked. He wants to keep chatting.

"Icha would like to ask to teach about physics that Icha does not understand."

A pair of Galang eyes rounded and exclaimed, "Well, good. Can I join too, right? I like the same physics. Science for me once."

"Galun likes physics?" Crescencia asked a little in amazement. Smaller owned by Galang.

"Well, great." Crescencia praised the person next to her. While Galang smiled shyly.

Both of them arrived at the teacher's room. Approaching Bu Rani who was polishing her face a little with powder in her hand.

"Excuse me Ms. Rani, I want to put together a tenth class IPA 3 assignment."

Bu Rani turned her head, looking at the two people who were smiling kindly towards her. " Ah, yes. You put it here. Thank you, yeah...."

"Together, ma'am," replied Galang. They both put the book on the table.

"Bu Rani, can Icha ask you to teach me about physics? Icha there is a lack of understanding" asked Crescencia politely. It made Bu Rani quite surprised but looked happy.

"Oh, can. Sure oes. Where is it that you can't."

"This is Mom, about number 2 equals five." Crescencia shifted the book. Ms. Rani was seen reading the subject at a glance.

"It's not an eleventh-grade material, is it?" ask Bu Rani to make sure. The reason is, just yesterday he taught this material in the eleventh grade of IPA 5.

"Yes, Mom. Icha is just a fad just borrow a sister's book and try to work on those questions. And it turns out there's something Icha can't." Crescencia grinning horse. While Bu Rani looks astonished.

"What are you telling your brother to do?" asked Bu Rani who made Crescencia speechless for a while. His throat feels very dry. Moreover, Bu Rani was now looking at him full of search.

"Eng.no, Ma'am. Pure icha just want to work. After all, Brother Icha is twelve grade, really. And so, the books were given to Icha," replied Crescencia lying. It hurts so much every time he does this.

Ms. Rani looks mangosteen. His lips smiled knot. Then, he immediately explained how to solve the problem at that number. Both Crescencia and Galang, both are equally focused and listen to both Bu Rani's explanation. Even so serious, Crescencia to ask to be taught to the next pages. To the extent that it is not realized if the rest time has run out.

Crescencia and Galang were seen stretching his muscles. So did Bu Rani who closed the pen in her hand.

"Thank you so much for your time, ma'am. Icha knows now" Crescencia said, closing the book.

"Yes, equally. If you have any more difficulties please go straight to me. I love your spirit of learning." Miss Rani smiled. Making Galang and Crescencia nod with pleasure.

"If so, we'll go to class, ma'am. Thanks again for the knowledge." Galang shone at Bu Rani's hand. Then Crescencia did the same.

...°°°...

The bells coming home from school were ringing loudly. Sir Romi was standing in the school parking lot. He was like waiting for someone, because his eyes were constantly looking for something. Mr. Romi was silenced by his thoughts that continued to ring the words of Crescencia at that time. He feels if it is too hard on his students. He also realized that all this time he saw was only based on one benchmark point of view. See the behavior of children in school only. He doesn't care about their lives outside of school. For him, if he broke the school rules, the punishment would always be on them. No matter what the reason is.

Mr. Romi was seen breathing deeply. His eyes turned to feel guilty. He strongly justified Crescencia's remarks. The attitude of students who are naughty, bulky, and often make heart food, could be based on their impingement that can only be done at school. It could be that the child that he has been constantly punished is the victim of the dissatisfaction of his parents. Or are experiencing other things that may have never been thought of before.

Mr. Romi breathed a long breath. His pair of eyes instantly rounded when he met the person he was looking for. His lips began to open and shouted, "When!"

The one called by his name looked over. The wrinkles on his forehead folded thinly once. His eyes instantly blocked sharply. Dika was amazed to see the killer teacher was putting on a smile and full of hospitality. Much different as usual. He put both his hands in his pants pocket. His head held up, slightly lowered to align the height of Mr. Romi below.

"Would you like to go home?" ask Mr. Romi. Dika did not answer.

"Can we talk for a minute?" he said kindly. And without the ba-bi-bu, Mr. Romi immediately embraced Dika's shoulder. Makes Dika a little shocked.

Mr. Romi brought Dika to sit at one of the empty cafeteria tables. The two of them are now sitting facing each other. The two remained silent for quite a while. At last she opened her cold voice.

"What do you want to say?"

Mr. Romi breathed a long breath. Unite his two hands. Reply staring at the Netra Dika who looked impatient.

"I heard from the teachers, he said you were willing to do the task and take the lesson. I'm quite relieved and a little bit disbelieving you can change fast. What I ask is, did you have any internal problems before? You can tell me anything. I am your teacher, you can consult me. So that I can know what happens to my students."

Dika. Trying to digest every word of his teacher. His black netra seemed to be scouting. Then, the corner of Dika's upper right lip smirked thinly. He could no longer tell which people really cared or just wanted to know. Dika stood up from his seat. Pulling a backpack that was slung on part of his shoulder. Then just leave without saying anything.

Mr. Romi was clearly staring at Dika's back which was getting away. Both of his hands were tightly clenched. The sides of his molar teeth also mashed each other upset.

"Ughhhhh! Know my gini just so not that kid's head! Damn you!" Mr. Romi is upset right. How not, his good intentions were instead reciprocated indifferently like this. If the story is told, it is better to be yourself who is famous for being fierce and rude. Rather than being ignored and not being considered like this was much more painful. If his students vent emotions at school, he can also vent his emotions at them. Break it!

...°°°...

As per the agreement this morning, after school, Crescencia stopped by briefly to Ara's house. His arrival was immediately welcomed by Bu Nana, Ara's mother. She was served with a delicious chocolate cake. Ms. Nana also bothered to make a special snack today.

"Icha is full...." Crescencia laid her body on Ara's bed. So did Ara who did the same.

"Yes. Tumben really Mama want to cook delicious Kayak gini."

Crescencia lips smile. Staring at Ara who was regulating her breathing regularly.

"Oh, yes! I made Oreo ice cream yesterday. You want Cha?" asked Ara while affirming her body.

Crescencia. Take up his body. Ara passed by from there to get ice cream. Meanwhile the head of Crescencia circulates to see Ara's room which is quite spacious and simple. The room was painted clean white without any decoration on the wall. Crescencia stepped foot to see a frame of moderately size on the study table. He grabbed that frame. Look at the little pictures behind the glass. Crescencia lips smile. Those are photos of Ara's childhood through adolescence.

Crescencia returned the frame back to where it was. His forehead suddenly shriveled. His gaze was fixed on a blue-covered book that read dear diary. He didn't want to touch the privacy book. But that makes him interested because there is a photo of Nando on it.

Crescencia put themselves to sit on the chair of the study table. His hand moved to take the photo. And no matter where, Crescencia opened the pages of the book. He was made to wonder about Ara who kept a photo of Nando. Just then, a pair of Crescencia eyes widened. All the pages of the book must have Nando's name in them. Crescencia's lips smiled slightly and did not expect that her best friend had feelings for Nando. The guy who sucks in his eyes.

Crescencia read a caption on the fifth sheet that read; "My exaggeration is, there has never been a man who returned my feelings sincerely." Crescencia knuckles are getting more and more plentiful. It is no stranger to those words. And it seems like Ara once said it.

"Has Ara already conveyed her feelings to Nando?" Crescencia asked herself. I just don't understand the meaning of that sentence.

"Here, Cha, your ice cream!" Ara suddenly entered. Crescencia turned her head immediately.

"Lo what?" A pair of Ara's eyes looked glared. His body immediately stiffened. His heart stopped beating. Ara quickly closed the book violently. His face looked pale and frightened.

Crescencia smiled ignorantly. Looking at Ara meaningfully.

"Cha..gu-go ...."

"Ara likes Nando, right? Cieee.." Crescencia's tease that made Ara's face red.

"No-no. Just ...." Ara could no longer continue her sentence. The words seemed to be stuck in the throat.

"Ara likes Nando and doesn't say anything, Icha anyway...." Crescencia looked sad. And then smile again. While Ara immediately exhaled a long breath. He can't dodge anymore. Ara sat on the bed holding the book.

"When did Ara like Nando?" Crescencia. Staring full of ignorance at his best friend.

"Why did you see me like that? Want my eyes to plug?!" Ara asked annoyedly. While Crescencia actually chuckled amusedly.

Ara exhaled her breath. Open each page of the book slowly. "Gue used to be one Junior High with Nando, Cha. I like him for a long time," said Ara.

"Ara told Nando that Ara likes Nando?"

Ara shook her head to answer that question. "Gue doesn't dare, Cha. I'm afraid I'm telling you, Nando's staying away from me."

"If Ara doesn't talk, how does Nando know!"

I put the book on the other side. His head looked up to stare at the ceiling of his room.

"Gue doesn't need Nando to know. I also don't expect Nando to return my feelings, Cha. For me, I can see Nando from far away. I don't need more. I'm self-conscious anyway."

Crescencia flicked her lips not liking to hear that painful explanation. He said, "but loving alone and clapping hands hurts, Ra. Ara didn't want to ask Nando just once. Maybe Nando has the same feeling. Or, as if Nando knew that Ara had feelings. Ara was also relieved when she heard the answer directly from Nando."

Ara smile. His eyes began to glaze over. "No need, Cha. I already know the answer. Because, Nando again likes each other."

"Yes? Ara sure? Who is that guy?" Crescencia asked in surprise. In fact, his pair of eyes widened perfectly.

"Lo Cha." Ara grimaced as her tears fell. However, Ara quickly removed it. "That guy is lo, Cha. Nando likes elo."

Crescencia was silent in disbelief. His lips even felt faint. "So, there's no way Nando likes Icha. Ara's wrong." Crescencia chest feels tight. She almost cried too. Moreover, seeing Ara's smile that was very sincere, just increasingly slicing her heart.

"Gue's not wrong, Cha. Nando obviously likes elo."

At that instant, Crescencia immediately cried. To be honest, he felt it too. However, he does not believe if his best friend actually keeps the taste in the same person.

"Sorry, Icha!" Ara of confusion saw Crescencia who was crying loudly. He knew that Crescencia must not be nice to him. Ara also held a soft Crescencia hand. Raised Crescencia's head. He showed a smile on his lips.

"It's not Cha's fault. Feelings cannot be regulated." Crescencia is growing. Ara then rubbed the back of Crescencia to provide calm.

"Lo ever heard the words that love gives without having to ask for it?" Ara asked loudly. "And that's where I am now, Cha. This is a risk I have to take. Where I dare to put feelings on someone, I must also be prepared for the big risk where the person will accept me back, or I have to keep it alone. Because all I can love is sincerity, without expecting a reward. I don't care about my own feelings, Cha. It's as if I can learn and know what it's like to love someone with sincerity."
