ENDLESS HALLWAY
CHAPTER 68: ANOTHER POINT

As soon as the break bell rang, the men of Balqis supporters immediately soared out of the classroom to the cafeteria. Find drink. They just run around. While the girls classmates walked out while staring at Balqis for a moment. Balqis was upset.

"What the hell is wiry? It's running, too!" his gerrick.

Balqis glanced at the person next to her, still with anger. Then he stood up and walked out of the classroom. When passing Ranti, patted her friend's arm.

"To the canteen yuk!" Take Balqis.

Ranti puts her books in a drawer, gets up, chases Balqis. While tidying up his books, Cevin followed Balqis with a look in the eye. Meanwhile, Toni, as soon as the two girls disappeared behind the next class wall, immediately got up and approached Cevin with quick steps.

"What is the problem with Balqis?" tanyanya while dropping down next to Cevin. "Berantem is like that."

"Don't have to ask." Cevin clucked lazily. "Yuk, to the cafeteria. I'm laper."

"Balqis also went to the cafeteria. You can fight there again." Toni.

"Well if he's looking for anything else." Cevin gets up, "What can you do!"

***

In front of one of the long tables in the cafeteria, Balqis and Ranti were sitting opposite. Each with a plate of hodgepodge and a glass of sweet iced tea.

"What the hell is the matter with Cevin? It's like a kayak." Ranti opened the conversation with a topic that made Balqis's annoyance sustainable.

"Aduuuuh...!" Balqis. "Elo that's yes. If I knew the problem, I wouldn't be screaming like this this morning, anymore." Say Balqis again.

"Well, you don't know the problem? If you're squirming this morning, Cevin's mad about it, like it's a serious problem, Qis." Ranti.

"I don't know, ah." Balqis shook her head, then watched the hodgepodge on her plate. "So I think I've said the same mother did not use tempe deh," he said, then began to separate small pieces of tempe from the hodgepodge.

"Lo asked, Qis, same Cevin, what's the problem?" Said Ranti again.

"Udah. I asked that morning, and then it was like that." Answer Balqis.

"Good thing." Ranti.

"Uda, Ranti…!" Balqis sighed and then exhaled strongly. He looked at Ranti, tired and desperate. "So that morning I was fine. Yesterday was too. You think I just had a trus directly maen snapped, that is? No, again. No, no need to discuss. It makes me no lust. Or gini aja, if you are curious, lo aja gih that nanya. Tell me." Balqis.

"I may not be the one, anymore." Finally Ranti ended the conversation and began to eat her hodgepodge.

"Partially also if you want to get answers, like nanyanya kudu use thump mattress," said Balqis while chewing. Ranti is laughing. But the laughter instantly vanished as soon as Cevin and Toni entered the canteen.

"He's here, Qis. Si Celvin," whispered Ranti, immediately so tense. But Balqis remained relaxed and did not look at the door of the canteen at all.

"Yes that. Don't want him here. There's no way he's going to the cafeteria second grade, let alone third grade." Balqis Reply.

Upon seeing Balqis and Ranti, Toni immediately invited Cevin to sit in front of a long table closest to the door. "Vin, let's just sit here. What do you want to eat? I'm a pesenin." Toni.

"Gue wanted to sit there," pointed him with his chin to a long table two tables away from the table where Balqis ate. From that table, Cevin could freely watch over Balqis. "Gue somay. No potatoes, yeah. Drink some fresh iced tea." Cevin.

Toni immediately shot to the right side of the canteen, where the food counters were lined up. Soon he returns with Cevin's order and his own. He took his place in front of Cevin. But once he realized where his friend's eyes were, he immediately stood up and moved.

"Remove you?" ask Cevin.

"Prevention," replied Toni. "From the way you saw Balqis, it looks like this morning in class will repeat itself here" he said.

Cevin did not argue. In his heart he justifies what Toni says.

"Lo sat here on purpose so he could eat her, right?" Toni.

"Yes," Cevin frankly.

"Why the hell? He's sitting next to you, right? Still less?" so funny, Toni to look at Cevin with frown tightly.

"Because he's sitting next to me, so I can't squirm. Another time he was sitting in front of me," Cevin replied casually, then began to feed a piece of somay into his mouth.

Meanwhile, Ranti, who was also worried that the fight Cevin vs Balqis would continue in the cafeteria, invited Balqis to rush back to class. Balqis agrees that she cannot eat quietly under Cevin's intermittently pointed gaze.

Without spending a hodgepodge on each plate, the two stood up and hurriedly walked outside the canteen. At the doorway, Ranti subconsciously turned to the two guys. At the same time, Tony was staring at them. The guy smiled faintly, looking at Ranti with a grateful look.

Ranti momentarily gasped. This was the first time he had seen Toni in such a serious expression. Not as tacky and clumsy as usual. That guy looks different. Another at all. With that smile returning.

Once the two girls were gone, Toni returned her gaze to Cevin, who was enjoying her somay casually, but clearly knew that Balqis was gone.

"Gue get back to my bench, huh? Kasian Balqis is sitting in the back of it. There is no theme. Must be a victim of a back child prank anyway." Toni.

Toni's eyes were wide. But he also did not make a sound, so confused about what to say.

Cevin so laughs. "lo spechlees, huh?" ask her with a ticklish tone. But then he shook his head strongly and said firmly, clearly not wanting to be denied at all. "Don't! I want him to sit next to me."

"Let's keep fighting, is that it?" Ask Toni.

"Yes!" Cevin smiled widely and played his eyebrows for a moment, looking at Toni's confused face. "And you don't have to wonder why. I will not answer. Not now-now. You see, I can't tell without emotion, without anger. And if you keep my maksa for the story too, it could be abis story, I can attack the Balqis more ferocious!" Reply Cevin.

Toni gaped...!!!

***

As soon as he got home, Cevin went straight into the room and stood in front of Irfan's bed.

"So morning my lo girl got mad, I snapped. I'm satisfied!" After saying that, Cevin changed his clothes.

He grabbed one of the comics from his comic collection rack and walked out of the room. While sleeping in the living room, Cevin reads the comic until he falls asleep.

But at night, after doing Homework for tomorrow with only half concentration, Cevin sat dumbstruck in front of Irfan's study table. If you want to think without including emotions, and frankly want to admit, the answer is clear.

Just satisfied for a moment...!!!

Just a temporary relief...!!!

After that, everything came back to how it was.

Nothing has changed.

Stay sad...!!!

Stay tight...!!!

Stay empty...!!!

Irfan is no longer there. And stay lonely so alone in this room. Except that at this time he also contacted Balqis and then back yelled at the girl like this morning.

With Cevin's pushy eyes stared at the piece of paper Irfan had placed on the wall in front of him. That line of sentences, Irfan's handwriting, was still legible, although it seemed blurred because Cevin read with a bright mind. Words about Balqis.

Just about that girl...!!!

I really wanted to get that paper off the wall. But not the heart, because the paper was Irfan's business for months. Because the paper was his joy for months as well. As soon as emergency. His restlessness. The impatience.

To be sure, the paper was a memory of Cevin and the rest of this household in the last months of Irfan's life. It was just a piece of paper torn from a school notebook, but it was precious to the older brother when he was alive. And now it's precious to the people he left behind.

"It's so blue" he sis Cevin softly, reading one of the points on the paper in a semi-conscious state.

"Got bangsil. The man who sniffs people." Cevin read the point below him.

Another point…!!!

If anyone is angry because it has become a victim of his pity, Balqis likes to njulingin eyes. Make people angry again.

Another point…!!!

Bego sports. There is no sport that he can do. Except run or run. Because usually abis ngisengin people, he likes to be chased.

Another point…!!!

Hair pickets are never neat. Keiket origin. But with that random, messy hair, she's so much sweeter. Saucy!

"Times?" Cevin laughed gruntingly. Not sure and not at all believe in the truth of the sentences. Especially the last one.

But soon his laughter disappeared. The guy then took a deep breath. Caught up in a long time.

***

At the same time, in his room, Balqis was also sitting in silence. Deepest. But for him, there's nothing to think about Cevin. At all. Free, he won't get the answer. There is even an emotion again if you remember the incident this morning.

What Balqis is thinking seriously right now is, how can he be comfortable sitting in the back row that there is no girl at all. Plus next to the same stress guy who looks like he will be a real mental illness. But, until his eyes dimmed, due to drowsiness, Balqis did not also get the idea.

Oh...!!!

See how the situation will be, break it later. He stood up while yawning wide while heading. His bed, fell there, and soon he fell asleep.
