Degree And Guarantee
Second Meeting


"Assynnolt..." Andini opened the door of Omanya's house in a hurry.


"Waalaikumsalam.." said Oma and Rima from the middle room.


Rima was waiting for her best friend to go to school together. Rima smiled when she saw Andini coming in while scattering in front of Ibu Imas and grabbed her hand and kissed the back of Omanya's hand that was sitting in front of Rima.


"My most dear one may always be healthy." Andini hugged the body of an old woman who always smiled to welcome the arrival of Andini.


"Thank you, granddaughter." Imas' mother warmly replied to Andini's embrace.


Shortly afterwards Andini unravels the arms of Ibu Imas, then grabs Rima's hand to stand up.


"Yuk, leave now Rim. The ceremony is not to be missed."


Rima got up from the chair and grabbed her backpack that she had placed on the table.


"Oma Rima pamit." as she reached out to Mother Imas' hand and kissed the back of her hand. Followed by Andini.


After saying goodbye, they came out of the middle room. Imas' mother escorted them to the terrace of the house and stared at the departure of Rima and Andini until they were both lost from sight.


...♡♡♡••••••♡♡♡...


Every Monday all students of the State 1 First High School attend the flag ceremony. Not a single student looked to the left. They carefully followed the entire series of flag ceremonies solemnly.


"Dina.." Rima stopped her steps beside their classroom glass, Rima looked at Andini's face as if she missed her best friend after two days they did not meet.


"Hem.." Andini looked back at Rima.


"Later after school I can't be with you anymore." Rima looked at her best friend's two balls with a slightly sad face.


Andini looked disappointed then nodded small. "And there are many things I want to tell you about Rim." He murmured in his heart.


Andini stepped into the classroom while still holding the hand of her best friend. Andini feels strange with the attitude of Rima who lately often does not want to go home with him.


Andini felt that her best friend was deliberately trying to stay away from her. "But why... This morning everything was fine. There's nothing strange about Rima."


"If only you weren't in a hurry to be afraid of bad luck. I told you all this morning." Andini continued to fumble in her heart which was still amazed by the change of her best friend.


"I'm sorry Din." said Rima inwardly as she turned to Andini who was staring at the board.


TENGS... TENGS.. TENGS..


The bell reads the sign that it is time for all students to rest. All of Andini's friends ran out of class. There are those who go to the cafeteria, there are also some people who scramble to get into the toilet that feels across the classroom.


Not usually Andini does not move from his seat. When Rima took her to the canteen Andini shook her head.


"What do you want to buy?" Rima stood beside Andini who was busy twirling the bar on the table.


"I'm not a Rim laper. Just you, I'll just wait here." Andini looked at Rima with a smile.


Rima understood what Andini was thinking, but she paid no heed to the anxiety of her best friend. Rima returned the smile of her best friend and left Andini sitting alone.


"It's true..." Andini said softly after seeing Rima come out of their classroom.


"My fault, Rima changed so..." Andini looked down sad while remembering her togetherness with Rima in the past week. "Ga something's wrong." she said back to herself.


Andini was still speechless thinking about what caused Rima to change like that. As hard as you think still do not find the answer to what he is thinking.


"Din't dream."


Andini half-jumped from the chair when suddenly someone patted her shoulder. Andini turned her head to her right side, Rima was standing smiling while holding her shoulder.


"Yes Andini Husein, already know this I was in absentee."


Rima sat next to her best friend pretending she didn't understand what Andini was thinking. Rima thrust two bakwan and two fried bananas in front of his best friend.


"Eat dong... I purposely bought this for you too Andini Husein." seduced Rima while touching her shoulder to Andini's shoulder.


"I'm not hungry Rim. You just eat." Andini stared at her favorite shrimp dish.


"If you don't eat, then I'll just move to the back." Rima pouted looking at Andini's face.


"Rig..." Andini looked back at Rima and was increasingly convinced there was something she did not know what caused Rima to change.


"I don't want to sit with my friend who has changed. He went to the canteen and did not want to. Take no food." Rima's cerocos standing up.


"Ga is wrong." said Andini in his heart while holding the hand of his best friend who almost moved sitting behind him.


"Okay, I'm eating but you're sitting here." Andini drew Rima's hand so as not to leave her seat.


"That's a dooong..." Rima smiled. " This is my new best friend." continued Rima while sitting back next to Andini who looked more astonished by Rima's attitude.


The two fell silent while enjoying the fry that was in front of them.


"Dina.. We'll be home from school together again." Shouted his cousin Andini's sister who was already standing at the classroom door.


Andini nodded while feeding the remaining shrimp she held. Rima smilingly looked at the Goddess who instantly passed by.


...♡♡♡••••••♡♡♡...


Andini continued to walk slowly offset the steps of the Goddess who according to Andini so mellet. I don't know how many times Andini asked the Goddess to speed up his steps. But it's still slow.


Andini occasionally kicked the small stones in front of him. Still looks annoyed on Andini's face over Rima's change. And that's what's on his mind. Meanwhile, Dewi continued to babble while smiling happily, Dewi did not realize during the walk of nearly ten minutes, Andini did not pay attention to it even one word was not heard by Andini.


"That's it Din." Goddess poking Andini's hand. " Din!" pekik Dewi slowly.


"Hem." Andini turned her head in shock towards the Goddess who suddenly hit her shoulder.


"That's Din." The goddess pointed towards the public transport that was in front of her.


"Figures." Sahut Dini stared at the public transport that his cousin pointed at.


"It's not Andiniii..." Dewi held Andini's hand half whispered "Reyhan tuh again pay" Dewi idled her chin to refer to the public transport driver who again took the money from Reyhan's hands.


"Keep what's wrong with Reyhan." Andini again walked indifferently in response to her cousin sister.


"I know Din." The goddess held onto her right chest as she continued to stare at Reyhan who started walking away in front of her.


The goddess suddenly accelerated her pace as if unwilling to lose track of Reyhan who had slightly moved away from them.


"Why ain't this the way, make a sprain." Andini grumbled following in her cousin's footsteps.


"Rey... Wait." Wait." The goddess slightly shouted at Reyhan


Reyhan stopped his steps and looked back. "Goddess.. Andinis." Reyhan murmured with a smile happy to see the two women who were getting closer to him.


"Rey.. You were called from earlier the same as me." The goddess approached with a happy smile.


Both of his eyes widened looking at Reyhan who nodded his head and greeted him with a smile.


"Go home with yuuuk." The goddess looked at Reyhan expectantly.
