It is only about ten minutes drive from Anashira's house to our school, Harapan Bangsa High School. The journey seemed smooth without any obstacles.
“Honey, you get off first huh. Class first aja gapapa.”pinta Gema to Anashira.
Anashira obeyed Gema, and she finally went down and gave her helmet to Gema in front of the main door of the school building. Echoes also parked his motorbike in the school motorcycle parking lot. One of the reasons why Gema chose to lower Anashira is to avoid the attention that exists in the school environment. But after Gema parked his motorbike he walked to the front door of the school building, Anashira who was in front of the door of the school building, seemed to wait for an echo. Anashira who was waiting with her head lowered with her face immediately looked at Echoes. Then he smiled. Inevitably the Echoes had to approach Anashira who was waiting.
“You didn't go first?”ask Echoes.
“I'm waiting for you tau.”
‘Ah. fuck it. Why did they see me dating Anashira!’inner Echoes that seek to convince themselves.
“Come to class.”ech Echo.
Gema also invites Anashira to walk with class. But when Gema wants to step ahead of Anashira. Suddenly Anashira gently restrained Echoes clothes on the arm. Echoes stopped, he immediately turned to Anashira. Anashira looked to turn her face slightly and blushed in embarrassment.
”Sayang?”said a confused echo.
Anashira took off her pull and her left palm shifted to her right arm. The echo was quite aghast. Apparently Anashira wanted to join hands with Echoes. Didn't yesterday's Echoes have joined hands with Anashira, why was Gema quite surprised? . Apparently the root of the problem is in the school environment. That's what makes Echoes afraid actually. He was afraid of being the center of attention. But in contrast to Anashira, He seemed to be indifferent to the surroundings. Yet why was he so daring to take the initiative to hold hands ? Wasn't she traumatized by men? Did yesterday's incident make Anashira melt down and receive a man named Gema?
...
This morning on the side of Anashira.
*The phone alarm sounds.
Now the phone's alarm goes off faster. Anashira instantly regained consciousness from her sleep.
“What time?”he muttered half-consciously.
Anashira was quite aghast that this was still at 05:00. Instantly he remembered the promise with the Echoes. The echo will pick up Anashira.
‘Aduh. I'm really nervous to see him.’
Anashira seemed to twist around the area of her room due to confusion.
‘Ohya .. call Ahri.’
Anashira who tried to calm down tried to call Ahri through Whatsapps. It took a few seconds for Ahri to pick up Anashira's phone.
“Ri. ri!”
[What Ana. is still morning. Hoam.] said Ahri who seemed to have woken up due to the ringing of his phone.
“Ri.gimana. I will be leaving with Ama Gema!”
[Okay.how ya.]Ahri seemed to be half conscious.
[With hands later.ah ah I slept first.]Continue Ahri who origin chirps because sleepy~~~ and then turn off his phone call. Ahri seems to be quite relaxed in the morning today, as Ahri's house is very close to the school.
“HAHH, RI? .. NJIR DIMATIIN.”
````
Anashira thought hard.’Hand in hand?’inner mumbling. Anashira also remembered the events yesterday. They have been holding hands since the UK. Given that, Anashira was a little embarrassed. Doesn't it matter because they're already dating? Despite her doubts, Anashira tries to convince herself. Think of it as an exercise to not be afraid of men.
‘Ok I will join hands with Echoes at school’batinya while reflecting with a mirror that aims to encourage themselves.
Anashira is ready for school. He did not forget to tell his father about the Echoes that would pick him up. So that his father would not have to drive him again. His father or called by Gema Om Basuki who initially hesitated even agreed.
...
“It's a little embarrassing, but I want to join hands with you.”ucap Anashira weakly and a little spoiled.
The echoes that heard that were honestly not palatable to resist. So Gema chose to follow his flow.
“Yes.um. Why the hell are we dating? hehe”ucap Echoes while turning his face a little and smile~~ sour ~~his actual small also resist embarrassment and pressure.
The echoes that initially felt Anashira's grasp were very tense and stiff, finally starting to limp and weak. Anashira's cheeks flushed red and gave a shy smile - shy. Fortunately it was still early in the morning, so only a few students were in the school environment.
Echoes began to lead Anashira slowly to the class. However, it seemed that some of them were interested in seeing this innocent couple. As expected, they stared at Gema and Anashira in surprise. Those who knew Anashira whispered to each other.
“It turns out the rumor was true.”
“That's Anashira?that guy's his girlfriend die?”
“He's the one who hit the basketball yesterday? They made?”
“Gue never saw his boy njir.”
Whisper people around them both. It seems that the rumors of Anashira and Gema have started to circulate. Honestly Echoes feel bad about all this, but how else. Echoes glanced at the woman beside him, Anashira. He was silent and quite enjoyed walking along with the Echoes. Is he not sensitive to the circumstances around?
Anashira also realized that Gema was glancing at her. Anashira smiled, showing off her beautiful teeth. His white teeth sparkled like a pepsodent toothpaste advertisement on television.
After a few quiet steps, Anashira began by opening a light conversation. Anashira asks about Gema's hobby, Then Gema replies that she really likes playing games. Then Anashira asked a little about the profile photo diwhatapp Gema. It seems like Anashira has a little knowledge about Anime. Gema also explained that she is Gema's favorite character in the Class room of the elite anime. Gema did not dare to mention it in waifu terms, because it was quite embarrassing. This small talk makes them enjoy their trip corridor school towards their class on the second floor. Echoes consider Anashira's ability to communicate very well, Anashira is great at expanding the conversation even starting the conversation. Not like a very stiff echo. As a result, the entire time on the journey was spent talking about self Echoes. Echoes very much want to apologize, if he is very boring.
...
The class was indeed very small and once the two of them entered, the class suddenly became noisy. One - one person who did not make a fuss was Ahri, Ahri seemed to smile idly at Anashira. There is actually one more close friend of Anashira, she is from eskul drama and her fame is not inferior to Anashira and Ahri. He is Cantika Dariani. Yesterday he did not enter because he participated in an art competition at a State High School in Palembang. Cantika seemed to give a cynical look to Gema. Naturally he did not know with the challenge from Ahri. Ahri also just told Cantika that there was a surprise today.
The other students seemed curious about Anashira and Gema's relationship. Especially the women there, they surrounded them both. The introverted soul of Gema could not bear this. It made Gema immediately take off Anashira's hand and try to get away from the commotion. Only Anashira was interviewed by the women. After they separated, Gema sat in her chair and placed her bag. Yet instead of feeling relieved, a piercingly sharp gaze had threatened the Echoes. The men gave a cynical look to Gema. Their gazes were like flesh-eating beasts hunting.
The male student approached the Echoes. They looked like they wanted to ask Gema something. Echoes could already imagine the question they were about to ask him. How could Gema and Anashira get that close, while holding hands anyway? The end formed a temporary gathering of men near the table of the Echoes chair. Even the unfamiliar faces of Gemapun also gathered. This was the first time in Echoes' life that the Echoes were surrounded by so many people. One of the male students named Ridwan opened his mouth.
“Kok can lo handrails with Ana?:
The students want to know the answer. They also listened to the question of Ridwan who was not expected to be their temporary representative.
“Um..ya. because I'm Ana's boyfriend.”
They were aghast at hearing the direct statement from the Echoes.
“So the rumor was true!?”said ~~~~one of the male students - unknown man Gema interjected as if he did not trust Gema.
“Ya. so to speak.”Answer Echo.
Some men were silent as if they were crying in their hearts not believing what they had just heard and the hope of getting Anashira was dashed. Echoes cannot deny the fact, that they do not believe because Anashira is dating a gloomy man like Gema. Then Gema received a series of questions from the men.
From the side of Anashira. Anashira seemed to receive a barrage of questions from the women. Anashira answered with pleasure.
“So your relationship is equal Echoes. Kok can hold hands like that.”ucap One of the women.
“We are dating..”Anashira replied.
“Gue not expect a quiet guy like Gema can shoot elo na.”
“Eh. Actually I shot Gema.”
They were even more shocked after hearing that. Because an Anashira has always had feelings for Echoes.
“Emang elo likes the Echoes of the darkness anyway?”
Listening to that, Anashira thought for a moment to get an excuse.
“Um. Hehe.”ucap Smiling Anashira small~~~~.
Anashira cannot deny that she is dating Gema due to a challenge from Anashira. So he answered based on the definition that corresponds to the Echoes.
The women understood what Anashira meant. The mysterious man is often depicted in novels or stories *******. And will usually be the female protagonist pair in a story. Usually also the mysterious and quiet man in the novel story has a cold nature, enigmatic and sensitive to the closest people. Some women looked at the Echoes closely from afar. Their eyes were quite glowing, they did not expect that Echoes had that definition all along.
After a few minutes, the atmosphere began to calm down. Anashira could also start joining the circel Ahri and Anashira.
“Gue did not expect you will hold hands ama Gema”ucap Ahri who laughed small.
“That's elo's advice. I follow doang.”
“Eh..emang yes?”
Looks like this morning Ahri just interrupted. Ahri forgot what was said this morning to Anashira.
“Keep growing your hair in pigtails?”ask Ahri again.
“Kepengen aja.”Anashira answers a little jutek.
“Kok lo can be any ama Gema?”ask Cantika who knows nothing.
“Lah lo has not been told Ahri.”ucap Anashira.
“Aaan, he just said that today there was a surprise. This is ri?”'s surprisecantika said as she turned to Ahri.
“Hooh.” Ahri who nodded.
Then Anashira explained about the challenge given by Ahri. Of course they discuss this with whispers, so as not to be caught by other students. Cantika understood, but his face seemed to show disapproval.
“Why should the Echo? If you want to know Ridho, the famous basketball boy. It's a very stiff.”
“That's mah lo kali who likes Can. anyways lo why not shoot him aja?”chirps Ahri.
“Engga lah”ucap Cantika who has high prestige.
In Cantika's mind, it should have been the man who shot her. Not himself.
“Together .. The echo saved me yesterday.”.
Anashira interrupted their conversation. He started telling me what happened yesterday. Of basketball, and the happenings in the UKS.
“Hem. She turns out to be very mature.”ucap Ahri who praises Echoes.
Then Anashira continues her story about Gema's meeting with Anashira's parents. Ahri and Cantika were quite aghast listening to that.
“So your relationship is sanctioned ama nyokap bokap lo? Congratulations yes.”ucap Ahri.
“Congratulations - congratulations. Where is there, anyways just one month right?”chirps Cantika.
“Can's exception, if Ana falls in love with Gema. Why not continue?”
“Gue doesn't think it will, does Na?”cantika said as she turned to Anashira.
Anashira blushed in embarrassment as Ahri talked about “Fall in love”.
“AH.. GA KNOW DAH!”anashira said loudly.
‘DIA IS ALREADY IN LOVE!?’Ahri and Cantika's astonished inner jolt saw Anashira's face flushed red with a shy blush.
Anashira was still doubtful about her feelings. He does not believe, the time is just near yesterday can fall in love? Anashira tried to deny that.
From the side of the Echoes, it seems that the atmosphere began to be conducive for some students to return to their seats. This introvert human seemed overwhelmed by the barrage of questions from the male students. Suddenly Gema get notification of whatapps message from Anashira.
Anashira: Are you safe ?
Echoes immediately reply to the message.
Echo : Safe koq.
Anashira: Sorry to be so excited.
Echo : Just relax, baby. His name is also surprised an angel cake you are dating a gloomy person cake me.
Anashira : Ih. You can't go down so tauu . We are equal.
“Equarter” it is the ideal form of a relationship. Anashira seems to assume that she with the Echoes is equal. He apologized to Anashira.
Echo : Yes sorry dear..
Anashira : Yes gpp. But you don't like that anymore. I don't like it.
Echoes: I'm sorry, I won't do that again.
Anashira: sip :)
The bell went in. Several students returned to their seats.
Anashira: See you later dear..
Echo: Okey the spirit of learning
Anashira: you too...
Echoes seemed to blush in embarrassment at the message from Anashira. He didn't expect to make it this far. Echoes also think whether this message is too alay? But that's not normal in dating.
‘Ah tau ah .. pesetan with alay!’inner Echo.
