"liat Lian is getting handsome huh"
"what for, like an idol?"
"so seriously handsome"
"eh he said Kanigara would like to eat at Langit Jingga cafe later this week"
and many more, the admiration that many students throw.Even almost every morning the campus is full of talk about Lian.
Who's Lian?
...•••...
"alright don't forget to do your duty yes, good afternoon" concluded the man as he ended the class.
"iya ka" shouted simultaneously all the students. The man in front of them was a lecturer assistant, considering their compulsory lecturer was unable to attend for some reason.
"May" said back the man. pulled the attention of one of the women who was putting luggage into his bag.
"want to eat together?" take the man before moving.
Mayla—, the woman who is cleaning her books, shook her head while saying.
"ngga ka" he answered. A smile accompanied by a nod was the response she received before the man walked out of his class.
"eh Lian wants to fill in the Sky Orange cafe"
"the song cover is out"
"masa, it's a lot of like"
"patiently willing to be horrified"
Again, the topic of Lian began to warm up, returning to the discussion of every student there. But Mayla does not seem to put curious about the men who are always the lips of every student on the campus.
Here he is now, standing alone leaning against the guardrail while watching the faculty lobby from the third floor. Mayla has a habit of listening to the activities of others or call him a listener. Gradually he noticed the atmosphere in the faculty lobby, until his gaze accidentally caught the assistant lecturer who had been teaching in his class walking out of the elevator.
"ka Rega" he muttered. while following where his assistant lecturer went. It was not the intention of Mayla to refuse earlier, just that she felt bad.
"long wait"— a voice airs from behind him. Mayla soon turns to find a man who is now standing not far from her.he Raksa Maulana Arganta.
"not so" Mayla said honestly. He planned to go to the library to find a reference to the task that had been with the man in front of him now.
But just as he was out of class the man disappeared. Mayla who already knows one of the attitudes of Raksa — often disappears at any time. Meant to wait on the third floor as well as see the activity in the faculty lobby, to ward off boredom because of waiting.
"sa"
"hm"
"after the library, would you like to have a coffee with me at the cafe in front of the campus?" take Mayla with you, just as the man joins her beside her. The raksa was silent for a while, then nodded.
"may, come on" he said as he walked ahead of Mayla toward the elevator.
the two are now walking along the corridor, from both of them no one wants to start a conversation. Both Mayla and Raksa, both focused on their respective paths until right in front of the faculty both passed by their teaching assistants.
"ka rega"
"May, Sa. Where are you going?"
"library ka" replied Mayla, while Raksa was silent. Rega nodded in understanding.
"oh okay, be careful" he replied kindly.
Just when the two got in front of the library it was seen that the library was full, because, he said there were some faculty who used it. Both of them decided to go to the cafe as Mayla wanted earlier.
No need for hours for them to walk because now both have arrived at a small cafe in front of their campus—copy yuk! cafe.
"what do you want to pesen?" ask Raksa right as they sit down.
"americano time"
"wait a minute" said Raksa as he walked towards the counter. not so long ago Raksa came with two cups of coffee in his hand.
"do you have a WFO now?" mayla asked right after Raksa occupied her front seat. Raksa buzzed while nodding.
"there are some draft files that I need to finish" he replied. He stuck a straw on his coffee.
"sama I also have many sa" said Mayla again. The woman looks troubled thrusting straws, Raksa whose eyes are slightly disturbed by the woman in front of her takes over Mayla's straw, which immediately gets a slightly upset response from the woman in front of her. Because Mayla had gathered the energy in her hand ready to thrust in full force but suddenly her coffee glass was taken for granted.
"i can do it myself", Raksa— the man looks unconcerned. After he managed to stick a straw he kept the coffee cup in front of Mayla.
"do not drink coffee, may" he said later.
"eat it try" said Raksa, while keeping a coffee cup, leaving half the coffee there.
"it's hard, because I'm used to it" Mayla replied, the woman's gaze seemed to voice something. Which he can't pronounce in speech.
"thick"
Home layover — belongs to Fabio Asher, playing faintly in the cafe that afternoon, music that airs in silence as if filling the silence of the two.
"The song is very melow" comments mayla, making Raksa who was looking out the window turned her head
"Request gih nyari that you think is right" answered Raksa, mayla instead laughs at what, maybe the answer was late after Raksa threw or what, while Raksa frowned again said
"Don't laugh like that, I don't laugh anymore" Raksa said later,
"there are you sa, indeed I can request", Raksa put his shoulder to the mark of not knowing.
"who knows"
"later I try, ask a friend song to be love from Zigas" Mayla said shortly after she laid down her coffee.
"Let's go back, the second hour will start again" said Raksa, the man had walked first leaving mayla.
"WAIT for IH SAAAA", he shouted, inviting the attention of all cafe visitors.
"Have the coffee been paid for?" Mayla asked when she managed to chase Raksa forward. Raksa nodded while saying throw a peeking gaze,
"do you think I left you because I couldn't afford to pay earlier?" answer later. Mayla nodded stiffly while smiling
"well, it can be"
"it's messed with you, let's skip the second class and start again" Raksa asked shortly after he threw half his coffee in the trash can there. Because of Raksa's wide steps Mayla was left far behind by her friend.
"it's a habit if the road likes to leave" said Mayla tucked a tone of annoyance in his words. The woman continued to knit her steps while staring at the back of Raksa who looked far from her sight.
The small step had to be stopped when his eyes accidentally met with black soot belonging to a tall man pigtailed with crescent moon earrings, who was now standing five floors facing him. while carrying a guitar bag with an orchid flower motif that the man sashes on the shoulder. Seeming fluttering like no intention to step, as well as Mayla the view of the woman was not separated from the figure of a man who was why it locked his gaze.
Until the embrace that seems to belong to the male friend suddenly cut off the attention of the two. It was seen that the man began to enter the class with a friend who had earlier embraced him. Mayla continues her path.
Just as Mayla was about to pull the doorknob, suddenly someone's hand went ahead making her stunned by surprise. soon she let go of the handle and turned her head, looking up at the owner of the hand. A little higher than him.
"Raksa" he said, long Mayla was silent to look at Raksa because now she was trapped between the door and the man's arm.
"come in" Raksa said, pulling the doorknob and opening it.
'i thought he was first'—inya
...•••...
Almost two hours Mayla sat alone, she let her back cling completely to the back of the chair, closed her eyes for a moment to hear the music to fill her night. his view can not be separated from the series of posts in similar applications Microsoft word.
"jeez my eyes almost squinted" he complained because he had been sitting staring at the monitor screen for hours while continuing to play the mouse up and down. He'll spend the night with his draft work.
That's how in every day, Mayla will be busy with work and also college. Occasionally complain of cape because of the density of activities. Sleeping was only three to four hours a day especially when the work piled up, not to mention the campus tasks that made him barely sleep a full night.
Sometimes he doesn't understand his life as if it were turned upside down. Man has his plan, but believe God has his destiny.
that's what Mayla feels now.
"i don't understand, because I don't understand my life" he said, holding his coffee up to the toilet, he himself did not understand what he had just said.
the clock has shown at half eleven in the evening. But Mayla did not intend to stop work for a moment. Before a knock on the boarding door made him startled, immediately stopping work. He stepped forward, opening the door after he confirmed that it was not a stranger who was now standing in front of his boarding house.
"ka Rega" he said just as he found his teaching assistant standing up while holding a sizable paper bag.
"Masukka" mayla bargained, Rega shook her head she still knows manners. Meeting the girl at the curfew was disrespectful, but due to the manners of the mother Rega could not refuse.
"So Mamah made a new cake recipe that she will make a menu in the cake shop, mamah ask you to try it" explained Rega while holding a brown paper bag containing the cake in question.
"sorry, the nights I've been visiting, because my mom just finished making it night" Rega followed soon. Mayla nodded while accepting it.
"thank you, greetings to you" said Mayla.
Honestly Rega felt bad because it had disturbed the rest of the woman in front of him. He had guessed that Mayla was asleep, but when he found that the woman was still using the cockamata at night, why Rega was a little sorry for giving him work.
"i'm going home yeah, don't be so hard pitying your body" he said before leaving. Mayla nodded.
We were just talking about Mayla's life, weren't we? What about the romance of that woman?
Mayla herself is not ready to put the taste on anyone because there is an unfinished taste in her past. And until now it still feels the same. The feeling he had felt when he first came to know the name love.
"i'm tired, tired for my life" he said closing the night.
