Crescencia placed the pen on the chemistry book she was working on at her desk. He was forced to get out of the room when he heard Ellis's voice rising from the bottom floor.
"This is the third time you've received a letter from the principal asking you to be transferred!What have you been doing all this time?!"
Crescencia climbed down the stairs in a hurry. He wanted to get closer, but his steps were restrained as Mira grabbed his wrist.
Dika who was sitting on the sofa snorted cynically. His head was shriveled not caring about all of Ellis's ravings.
"Enough Dika! You've embarrassed my mother! Want to put where Mama's face if Mama— friends"
"Enough, Ma!" Dika immediately snapped by gulping his body. Makes Ellis look her eyes.
"Did Mama care all this time the same Dika? Do you know Mama's the same life Dika?! All you know is that reputation-reputations!"
Both of Dika's hands were clenched firmly. His face hardened, making the muscles in his neck bulge out. His breath was roaring very quickly.
Dika grinned. Staring at Ellis' increasingly red face with flaky nostrils.
"Mama should not interfere in Dika's affairs, if Mama herself does not know anything about Dika!"
Dika passed from before Ellis who was now silenced. Crescencia's body was slightly tiptoed when Dika closed the door of the room very hard.
Crescencia's face stiffened violently when he heard the sound of falling objects and the sound of objects breaking from Dika's room. He was frozen and didn't know what to do. While Ellis actually immediately stepped away with hasty steps leaving the house. The woman looked very angry, evident in the sound of her high heels being deliberately jerked.
Crescencia looked up, looking at Mira who was breathing deeply. Various questions of 'why' and 'what's going on' were whipping in his head. He was still staring at the door Dika who was now silent. To be honest, Crescencia was very eager to get to his half-brother, but his body was restrained for nothing, so he actually stepped back into his room.
...°°°...
Monday morning. Crescencia had been busy looking for his gray hat which suddenly disappeared from the place he usually put it. Crescencia went there and there, removing most of the contents of his wardrobe, but it was not found.
Okay, Crescencia surrender. His head was dizzy when looking for things that were not found. He also went with the bag on his back. Her hair was beautifully seared, now she was shaped like a ponytail. She showed her white neck gracefully. Crescencia smiled as she stuffed the pendant around her neck into the uniform collar.
Crescencia's steps came to a halt just across the dining table. A pair of round eyes were staring at Dika who was about to move from there. Crescencia was amazed with a slightly gaping mouth. His eyes instantly explored Dika's uniform which was exactly the same as the one he was wearing at the moment.
The corners of Crescencia's lips are getting raised up. He then ran after Dika who had left.
"Sir Dika ...!"
"Sir Dika ....!!"
Dika who had been on his bike turned towards Crescencia with a flat look. Not interested in that little boy at all.
"Aren't you now in Amarylis High School? One school with Icha?!" pekik Crescencia. Honestly, the boy looked very happy.
Dika grunts. Pulling zipper thick black jacket without answering Crescencia question.
"Ich-Icha can go with Brother Dika?" Both of Crescencia's hands firmly gripped the side of her gray skirt. He was very hopeful that Dika would fulfill his request.
Chief Dika looked. This time the corner of his lips grinned cynically. Look at Crescencia with the lowest view.
"Lo wants to die?"
Three words. Only three words came out of Dika's lips. But the three words immediately make Crescencia chest tight and sore.
"And one more ...."
"... Don't know me at school. Don't you ever call my name! Moreover, you dare to interfere in my life! If you get desperate, I'm sure your life will never calm down!"
The sides of the molars were pounding each other. His eyes filled with hatred. He put his helmet on rough. Then immediately stick the gas and leave just like that. Crescencia held her head up. Feeling the exhaust dust sweeping his face. He tried hard to hold his heated eyes. Himself is so crowded. Crescencia clenched both hands tightly. He could not be angry or sad with the attitude of Dika who every day increasingly cold to him. Although Dika was not her biological sister, although Dika never considered her to exist, however, Crescencia loved Dika more than anything. His desire to have an older brother was granted by God. And he will not waste the opportunity that God has given him.
•••
Crescencia sets foot alone on the crowded school corridor. Both of his hands clasped tightly onto the backpack strap on his back. Today he did not bring a basket of bread because last night did not have time to make it. Because all that night, Crescencia was just dumbstruck and kept thinking about Dika as a result of a dispute with Ellis. However, one thing he knew, it turned out that Ellis and Dika did not seem to have a good relationship. I don't know what the cause is, Crescencia will probably find out and ask Mira later. Crescencia now stopped her steps when her ears heard the whispers of the voice with a loud tone.
"There's a really handsome new kid!"
"Huh? Seriously?!"
"Yes! I saw his son too! Hope you're in our class!"
"See where? I want to see dong!"
"So I saw in Bu Evi's room, fit again mengumpulin duties of Mr. Romi. The handsome doesn't lie."
Crescencia exhaled a long breath, feeling the breeze sweeping across her face. He knows exactly who the new kid is making hot news this morning.
"icha! Oh my God, you just came! Uh, you know not yet, there's a handsome new kid! Again this rame!"
Just as her feet stepped into the classroom, an Ara instantly shook her body with a screech.
"Yes, Icha know, really!"
"But dear, she's in the eleventh grade. Our upperclassman! So it can not be class," he continued sok sad.
"Hm." Icha just muttered, putting her bag on the table.
"The ceremony! The ceremony! The ceremony!" Nando shouted like a commander by putting a gray hat on his head. Before stepping away, he took the time to gently shake Crescencia's head.
Crescencia grunting. Comb back her slightly messy hair with her fingers.
"Come, Cha!" Ara hugged Crescencia's shoulder, then walked hand in hand towards the ceremonial field.
...°°°...
Crescencia's daydreams broke when Ara deliberately nudged her right shoulder.
"That's the guy! It's a handsome one, isn't it!"
Crescencia nodded small in response. He immediately put himself in the back row. Put yourself as the shortest student in his class. Ara that has an average height it chose to accompany Crescencia in the rear row.
"Where's your hat?" asked Ara while putting up her hat.
"Icha's hat suddenly disappeared this morning."
Ara snorted while tidying up her slightly tangled uniform.
The ceremony began. All the school members attended the ceremony solemnly. Yes although there are many of them who are in the middle of the busy course of the ceremony themselves and sound grumpy.
At the welcome session from the principal, the head of Crescencia suddenly got dizzy. His sight was a little blurry. Coupled with today's rather hot weather burning the top of his head.
Crescencia stepped back a little. Both of his hands were holding a painfully throbbing temple. Crescencia chest began to feel tight, as if there was a large and heavy object overlapping up there. The girl tried hard to maintain her balance, but at the third second, she immediately collapsed to coincide with her darkening gaze.
Hearing a slightly loud thud, Ara instantly turned her head. That instant also both his eyes widened in shock.
"CHUCK, ICHA!"
Ara's shriek was so loud, making many heads immediately turn towards her. In fact, the headmaster who was still giving directions also turned his head.
"Icha why?!!"
Suddenly Nando split the line and immediately looked shocked when Crescencia's body was stretched out on the grass of the field.
"Here, let me go!"
Nando unconsciously brushed Ara's hand which helped the UKS officers lift Crescencia's body onto the stretcher. Without thinking twice, Nando immediately raised Crescencia's body with both hands, held her back, and slightly hugged the girl's body.
Ara who was still a little shocked immediately ran over Nando's back. Leaving the flag ceremony that is still half way.
"Icha why did you faint?"
Ara who had just come out of the UKS immediately gasped to find a slightly sharp question from Nando.
"Don't know!" ara replied suddenly nervous.
"But the Elo is next to him!"
"Y-yes. But I know Icha passed out earlier."
Nando grunting. She looked at Ara with a sharp look. Even without Nando noticing, his hands clenched together at the side of his pants. Without a word, Nando immediately stepped away, because male students were not allowed into female UKS. While Ara looks shocked and a little hurt to see the anger of Nando who blames him for not keeping Crescencia. Ara continued to watch Nando's back move away until it disappeared from her sight. After that, Ara immediately walked quickly to meet Crescencia.
"The cha! Lo gapapa?" Ara immediately asked Crescencia who had just regained consciousness from fainting. Ara also thanked two UKS officers who had just helped Crescencia.
Crescencia shook little. Ara helps Crescencia to sit leaning against the head of the gurney. "Icha gapapa, Ara," Crescencia replied by bringing eucalyptus oil closer to her nose.
"Gee!" Ara hissed irritably by sitting on the side of the gurney.
"If there's a gap why you fainted!" Ara without hesitation flicked the forehead of Crescencia. "No breakfast, huh?!" guess Ara's straight to the mark.
Crescencia scowled her forehead.
"Yes, Icha does not eat breakfast," honestly Crescencia who made Ara immediately roll her eyeballs and grunt annoyed.
"Low blood Icha, Ara. So Icha gabisa stood for a long time."
Ara rounded her eyes. Looking at his best friend was very upset.
"Kok you didn't tell me! I can take you to the UKS! Don't want to fainting gini! Jatoh lo also has no elites!"
Crescencia a little tekekeh amused to see his friend who blooms as if a stepmother who was scolding the beautiful daughter Cinderella.
"Enter laugh! Not funny! You make people panic."
Crescencia was immediately broken, making Ara's frustration overflow.
"Yes-yes. Tomorrow Icha will tell Ara! Ready, 86!" resolutely Crescencia while raising one hand to respect.
Ara immediately smiled knot. He was relieved when he saw Crescencia had returned to laughing.
"Yaudah, go back to class, Yuk! The ceremony looks like it's done!"
"Hm." Crescencia nodded small. Then a little jump to get off the gurney.
As they were about to head for class, Crescencia slightly slowed down its path as Dika and several people walked past her in the corridor. Without Crescencia knowing, his head continued to watch Dika even to look back when Dika passed him. While Dika did not even glance at himself.
"Cock diem, Cha?" asked Ara who stopped her steps.
"Nothing. Let's go again" call Crescencia. Fortunately, he did not want to call Dika. Because Crescencia is very aware of the threat of Dika this morning is not kidding.
"Yes, let's go! Now the maple is Bu Dian, danger if we get late for class!"
"Yes Ara!" Crescencia is back. Walking behind Ara and brushed off all the questions that were now gnawing at her head. But he was increasingly curious about Dika's cold and very rude behavior to him. There must be something that makes Dika become like that. And obviously, from today Crescencia will find out about his curiosity.
