ENDLESS HALLWAY
CHAPTER 84: THE RE-OCCURRENCE

Today the air feels cool, because the cloud has been looming since morning. Two hours before the bell rang, suddenly the sky became very thick and heavy rain fell. Sigit stared at the drops, considering canceling his plans for Cevin's school. Fifteen minutes before the bell, the rain stopped.

As soon as the bell went home, Sigit got up and walked out of the classroom. Nodding his head to the teacher of the last subject, who was still busy packing his books and papers. He apologized with a smile for leaving class first.

Twenty minutes later, because of a friend's car, Sigit had arrived at his destination, at a food stall and a stationery shop across from Cevin's school. After selecting a bench and ordering a drink, Sigit sent an SMS to Cevin, notifying him he was on the spot.

While waiting for Cevin's arrival, Sigit noticed the school building in front of him. His gaze then turned to the sidewalk in front of the building. The rain which is only a moment but very heavy has created a puddle of water

dirty in some places in front of that sidewalk. Cevin came soon. Alone...!!!

"Where is Balqis?" ask Sigit.

Cevin tapped his shoulders. "There was, then," he replied in passing.

Sigit regretted having asked the question only for pleasantries, because he already knew the latest development of the relationship Cevin and Balqis.

"That's Balqis!" sizzle Sigit suddenly while pointing across the street. "The child's whole life!" Said Sigit later.

Cevin. He saw Balqis walking alone towards the gate with relaxed steps. The way Balqis walked and her fair-looking facial expression, tended to be plain instead, involuntarily making Cevin wary. Although they are now strangers to each other, Cevin knows the girl too well.

"Sori, Git. The conversation was postponed, yes." Cevin turned the chair he was sitting in. Now the man sat down behind Sigit, facing the highway. Sigit frowned to see Cevin's behavior, and his attention became focused on Balqis.

Meanwhile, still with casual steps and mediocre expressions, Balqis approached the crowd of her classmates who were standing on the edge of the sidewalk, waiting for an invitation or an empty bajaj passing by, or wait for the person who will be together to walk to the bus stop.

Suddenly, with such a swift and unexpected move, Balqis leaped into the middle of a puddle of dirty water, right in front of the crowd of her friends. No doubt, dirty water splashes drifted in all directions. Landing on clothes, bags, hands, feet and all objects that are right in the splash. Instantly, there was a shriek and a loud scream.

"Balqiiiiiii...!!!"

While giggling, Balqis immediately took a million steps. A thousand steps is still not fast. The girl ran as fast as she could. Blowing away from that place. The victims of his sobbing clearly did not remain silent. They ran in pursuit, screaming and screaming. Threats and swearing.

"Really, right!?" hiss and Cevin immediately stood up. "Start, Git!" patted Sigit's shoulder without turning his head, and the man immediately ran out of the food stall.

For a moment Sigit could only be amazed to see the event. But a second later he was stunned when he realized the same event had happened.

Once was...!!!

Without thinking anymore, Sigit immediately stood up and ran out. Cevin. Inside his head flashed past events, and he subconsciously compared them to what was currently happening in front of him.

Balqis does exactly the same fad. The consequences are exactly the same. The girl was being chased by the victims of her snobbery.

Irfan ran after Balqis. Now Cevin is also running to chase the same girl. The difference is, Cevin runs in the shadow of trees or protected cars parked on the side of the road.

Irfan used to run across the road right in the T-junction to block Balqis. Now Cevin is also doing exactly the same thing.

Sigit's guess is correct. In front of them the road was three. After a moment of looking back to make sure Balqis was already far behind him, Cevin ran across and turned right away. Sigit soon followed.

Suddenly Cevin stopped running. Sigit instantly stopped his running, and stopped the conjectures in his head. Cevin observed the shade trees of a road not far nearby, then approached one of them at a quick pace. The trunk of the tree was quite large and there were lush bushes at its feet.

Then Cevin stood waiting, behind the trunk of the tree, on the invisible side of the bend where Balqis would appear later. Sigit stands sculpting. He realized how similar this event was to other events that had occurred.

After a few seconds of Cevin's body being lost behind a tree trunk, Sigit regained consciousness. He immediately approached Cevin. Cevin greeted her by placing one index finger on her lips, smiling, then pointing across with her chin.

It's a little different...!!!

Just a little...!!!

Sigit nodded in understanding. Before long Balqis appeared from the corner. Still running as fast as possible. His breath was breathless, yet his lips grimaced amusedly. Also his eyes. The glint of laughter clearly appeared there.

Sigit stunned...!!!

There was something that felt like it was falling inside his chest...!!!

That expression was the same expression.

Cevin who also heard the sound of people running and had guessed it must be Balqis, immediately got ready. He lifts the body. Just as Balqis was about to pass through the tree where she was hiding, Cevin reached out his right hand in a sudden gesture.

Cevin catches Balqis' body and pulls her into lush bushes near a tree. Balqis was startled and immediately revolted, but was immediately silent as soon as he heard a whisper.

"God! It's me!" Cevin.

While pulling Balqis into the thicket of the bush, Cevin turned to Sigit and reminded him of his message with sign language. Sigit nodded with a smile. The forced smile as it was before long the smile disappeared without a remnant.

Sigit's pair of eyes turned nanar...!!!

Watching what happened not far from where he stood. Cevin and Balqis ducked deeply behind the bush. Unable to help but laugh, Cevin was forced to embrace her with his left hand. While his right hand smothers the girl's mouth firmly.

Suddenly Sigit was glued...!!!

His body froze when he realized something...!!!

Equation of place setting, equation of situation. After school hours, the rain that had just subsided left a puddle of dirty water in front of the school pavement. Balqis doing fad. Squeeze that dirty puddle towards his friends, then get flushed to save themselves!

In the past, Irfan ran in pursuit to protect Balqis. And now replace Cevin who did it!

But there is a difference in ending!

In the past Irfan could only protect Balqis by standing up to cover. Can't be more. Meanwhile, Cevin can't just be like that because Balqis recognizes him.

Sigit flinched from his attitude when he heard the voices of people running and before long some girls appeared around the corner. Their school uniform is full of chocolate. The six or seven girls, all of them Balqis classmates, ran over while nagging. They stopped not far from Sigit, then looked around. Seek out. Still angry.

"Si Balqis is a real fad. Wonderful! Tu kid if not want someone to just die for a moment, time huh?"

"But now he's not funny. Must be abis deh ntar I diomelin nyokap. My skirt got dirty with gini."

"Kalo until ketangkep, I will dipelupin the child in the pool of water earlier. The oath!"

Sigit hurriedly acted, as one of the girls had already moved closer to the bush where Cevin and Balqis were hiding.

"From the girl who ran away laughing, huh?" ask Sigit.

"Yes!" immediately sound compact answer.

"So run across." Sigit pointed across the street. Towards the housing complex. Without thinking anymore, the girls immediately ran across the street as soon as the traffic in front of them was quiet.

"Thank you, brother!" shout them at the same time.

"okay!" Sigit exclaimed back, holding a smile. Once things were completely safe, he exclaimed towards the bushes. "OK, safe!"

Cevin came out of the bush, holding Balqis whose face was flushed red from holding back laughter. Cevin then rebuked him in an annoyed tone.

"Elo fad sometimes like to miss, Qis. Their clothes are so dirty." Cevin.

"Alaaah, direndem briefly washed trus also cross," Balqis replied lightly.

"Hehehe...!!!" Balqis voiced her laughter in the form of three syllables, but it was immediately followed by a really amused laugh. It was very desirable for Cevin to pin the head of Balqis. The foreign taste between them quickly melted away. The two return as before Cevin decides to stay away.

"Yuk, unplug, Qis. Hunt them down later," asked Cevin.

The three of them immediately left the place, dashing fast towards the front corner, towards the stop. Running between Cevin and Sigit, suddenly makes Balqis think back to the events he experienced. The girl suddenly stopped.

Cevin and Sigit who flanked him instantly stopped the pace of their quick steps. Balqis stood before Sigit. He looked at the guy straight.

"I think I once ran away with you too." The words of Balqis made the two guys nearby freeze. "Yes, really elo!" Balqis. "Trus, I think there's another guy." Balqis continued.

"Finally lo inget too." Sigit's voice stuck in the throat.

"Who is that guy's name? Temen lo it?" Ask Balqis.

"Who? still snot, isn't it?" sigit's voice was now vibrating.

"Mmmm…." Balqis frowned. A moment later he shook his head.

"Try me around, Qis. Inget really." Sigit was really begging.

Meanwhile Cevin froze where he stood. His two eyes that were staring at Balqis straight started to fog.

Is this the day?

The last day Irfan met Balqis, as Irfan wrote in his diary?

Balqis frowned again. It seems obvious that he is trying to remember. But he soon gave up.

"No crap." Balqis.

"Absolutely?" Sigit asked.

"Yes." Yeah." Answer Balqis.

"How do you look like, still snot, right?" sigit's tone of voice began to weaken.

"Moreover that," Balqis replied while raising her shoulders in a relaxed manner. "Ah, it's ah. Why discussed anyway? It doesn't matter." Balqis continued.

Disconnected...!!!

Sigit felt the only link still connecting this girl with Irfan had been cut off.

Cevin also felt the same way, but with emotions that piled both opposite directions.

Happy, but also sad...!!!

Relieved, but crowded as well...!!!

Thankful, but sorry...!!!

Want to hug, but at the same time also want to let go...!!!

For a moment there is silence. Cevin. Sigit. Balqis looked at the two in confusion.

"Cok so on diem? Why the hell?" ask Balqis.

Cevin and Sigit were jolted together. Both of them then try hard to neutralize their emotions.

"Sir, said someone you want to talk about?" cevin's voice sounded floating.

"Tomorrow. Not too important." Sigit's voice also sounded distant. Mutual understanding that is not spoken.

"That's how I go first. Ngaterin the prankster." Cevin glanced at Balqis who was standing next to him. "Ntar's hunting down the crap, again." Cevin.

Balqis giggled amusedly. But soon the laughter disappeared.

"Lo want me to come home again?" Cevin looked at him in wonder. "Because I was told to go home by myself." Reply Balqis again.

"Udah, diem. Don't be fussy. Because of that, tomorrow morning I think you should also pick me up." Cevin replied.

Cevin glares...!!!

Balqis immediately chuckled in amusement. There was clearly joy on his face.

"Ashiiii. Tomorrow's dive...!" he said without sin.

The two guys standing nearby looked at him with mixed feelings.

"OK on." Sigit patted Sigit on the shoulder. "I'll tell you again if I want to see you." Sigit.

They split...!!!

When Cevin and Balqis had walked away, Sigit recalled what his goal was to meet Cevin this afternoon. While removing the comic inserted Balqis photo, Sigit pursued both. But soon his steps stopped.

Sigit canceled his intention...!!!

If Balqis saw a picture of him while still in First High School, he would have noisily asked. Sigit and Cevin were too tired to answer. While staring at the two people who were getting further away, Sigit took out a photo of Balqis from the comic page. His gaze then moved down. Suddenly he was surprised when he realized something. Quickly lift the head. He stared at Balqis, who even though he had walked far enough but could still be seen clearly.

Sigit's gaze then returned to the photo in his hand, a drawback to Balqis's figure who was drifting away. Then again back to the photo in his hand.

Not wrong...!!!

The same earrings, the same watch, the same bag, the same belt, the same socks and the same shoes! Even today Balqis binds her hair with a bond that is so characteristic of carelessness. The only thing that was no longer in the photo was the blue white uniform.

Sigit riveted...!!!

His instincts say, this is no coincidence. Because, this is too perfect. Slowly Sigit reinserted the photo into the middle of the comic page. When he put it in the bag, the comic got stuck in the zipper.

The sheets open right on the page where Balqis's photo was tucked in, revealing the back. There's a line there.

Sigit immediately canceled putting the comic in the bag. He took another photo of Balqis and quickly turned it over.

The guy gasped...!!!

His extreme shock made his body go limp. Quickly grabbed the nearest tree branch. While leaning against the strong stick of the pohan, pressed his chest with one hand. The rumbling of his heart could even shake his five fingers.

Accompanied by a consciousness that seemed to have declined far from the one hundred percent position, Sigit's gaze dropped slowly, to the photo of Balqis still in his hand. Unknowingly his hand gripped firmly. Once again read the writing behind the photo, with awareness that is no longer a hundred percent.

Tell Cevin, I have Balqis...!!!
