I Don't Understand
Late
After spending a night of two canned coffees and also one cup of instant noodles Mayla fell asleep quite soundly in front of the laptop. His head he fell to the front of the keyboard, One hand hangs down and the other is still faithfully holding the mouse that is still on, while the alarm where the phone sounds continuously.
A few hours later, a notification came to his phone.
About three hours have passed, while Mayla still did not wake up even her phone alarm has sounded for the umpteenth time.
"campus what time is this" he said as soon as he suddenly woke up, he quickly looked for a cellphone when on his study table there was a wall clock that he forgot its function. Because I often use my phone.
"BOTH I'M LATE" he shouted as he picked up the original clothes and ran to the bathroom with a crush.
DUK!
“aduh”
out of the bathroom he even tripped because the floor is not the same position. Choosing to ignore the pain in her legs, Mayla focused on staring at the lecture schedule.With her hands alternately insert books according to the schedule listed there.
About ten minutes he finished all his books.
He came out of the boarding house and locked the door and then came out, he started ordering an ojek online. had been waiting for quite a long time but the online ojek he was waiting for had not come, he was already agitated.
"please, the time stops for a moment or the lecturer there is a sudden obstacle also no papa" he said in a frustrated tone , the field can not be separated from the boarding gate hope that the online ojek arrived quickly.
Because he did not come ojek ojek oilenya kensel while chanting the word “maaf ya sorry” continuously. he decided to use public transportation even though he had to run far enough, even he ignored the pain in his legs that began to be so pronounced.
along the way he continued to curse blame himself who was late waking up when the alarm on his phone had sounded several times.until from a distance seen public transportation running quite slow.
It seems that bad luck is approaching him, public transportation that he entered even quietly waiting full of many passengers. While in it there is only mayla and also a mother who does not go anywhere.
"hopefully the lecturer really has an obstacle" he murmured, for fear that he would not dare to see the class group.
Until a few minutes later, the sound of the call came from his phone.
[calling]
Mercury
"Yes, the teacher came?" he tried to make a normal sound. Though now he was very panicked, the hours of college had passed a few minutes while he was still quite far away.
"where?" raksa.
"in angkot, ojol does not carry sprains, so ride the angkot only" said mayla a little restless.
"where are you?" Ask Raksa again while emphasizing the word 'where'.
“ngga know but I was caught already way away from kosan" replied mayla who felt the movement of the angkot, like a turtle as slow as it angkotnya walk. But after a few seconds there was no answer from Raksa until a few minutes after that sounding furious across his call.
"hello, Sa. Mercury. RAKSA MAULANA you're still beating on me, right?" mayla shouted she felt worried because suddenly Raksa disappeared indistinctly without closing the call even she forgot the fact that she was now in the angkot.
Trying to ignore the antenna he turned to the fathers who had just entered while carrying a rooster in his carrier.
'where to take chicken' —inya.
Until the interval of a few minutes of angkot walk again enter the mothers while carrying merchandise. Conversations also occurred where accidentally the chicken brought by the father pecked the merchandise of the mothers who had just entered. Not angry the mothers even laughed to see the rooster in the sack of the father. If Mayla noticed apparently the logic of the two was different Mayla as if introduced to the meaning of life when she began to vent away from her parents.
Maybe this is the meaning of different words but still one goal.The conversation both forget Mayla on the fact late until the angkot stops right at the red light, an Aerox motorcyclist pulled over suddenly, and suddenly, he said, obstructing the angkot that Mayla was riding walked back.the protest of some other riders was seen ignored by the motorcyclist, without removing the rider's helmet was directly entering the angkot.
"ayo" one word that made Mayla realize who it was—Raksa. As if hypnotized by the word come and the sharp highlight of the man Mayla come down. There was no conversation until Raksa motorbike arrived at the campus parking lot.
"had eaten yet" asked Raksa as he opened his helmet. Mayla shook her head to eat boro-boro even just to gulp a glass of water she forgot. Plus her mind was still blank with the sudden arrival of Raksa.
"already to the cafeteria come on, I'm hungry too" he said casually. Mayla is still sculpting as if her life is still left in the angkot.
"MAY UNSENO DOESN'T NEED A PARKING LOT" cried Raksa, shouting as if to draw the consciousness of Mayla left behind. It's as if Logging out of angkot all of a sudden.
"SA WE'RE LATE FOR MISS JENIFER'S CLASS" Mayla cried. Raksa ignored Arganta's men still standing without responding to anything.
"it was only recently realized" Raksa said afterwards.
"how dong sa, means you also dong?" said Mayla restless, while walking up to Raksa who had come out of the parking area.his gaze accidentally fell on the man who walked was seen approaching the two.
"you just came?", spontaneously Raksa turned to find Rega was standing not far from him.
"yes you're bad luck, it's my fault" Mayla said regretfully.
"let me say, let me finish the rest" Rega said. The male Raksa has left both.
"i just don't feel good" she replied.
"have you eaten yet?", Mayla seemed to recall Raksa's question,
"Where's the threat?" muttered.
"may" reworked Rega.
"yes" he answered. Not yet Rega said back, someone came to attract the attention of both.
"Long wait a long time ago", both—Mayla and Rega— turned at the same time. There stood Aruna Rega's lover. Just when Rega answered Mayla immediately left the two.
Until in the middle of the corridor Mayla met with Raksa who was talking to someone, looks familiar but Mayla does not know who the man is. Mayla decides to go to the library, because the class is over.
Arriving at the library Mayla walk down each shelf there, until his gaze falls on a book Novel tucked between the study book with the title —Candala. From the synopsis that he read behind his book, the novel tells how the character still survives despite being bullied and ostracized by the environment.
While leaning on the shelf, Mayla began to open sheet by sheet of the novel.about two hours Mayla spent reading , she decided to return to class.
"mayo you didn't come in?" ask Arin while knitting a step towards her, she said,
"wrong yesterday came home tonight, so you want group work?" mayla asked a little lethargic.
"so May, in our lobby, feel sorry for you" replied Resha as she took a seat beside Mayla.
"oh yes may, you haven't told us yet. Why do you know the same ka rega?" asked Arin who was standing next to him,
"let's story! you have not told me at all why you know each other" said resha enthusiastically.
"Where did I start" said Mayla, for some reason she fell silent.trying to think of the right answer or alibi so that no more questions came out of the two friends, he said,
"Me and Ka Rega have been friends since childhood, we've been like ka— sisters
But has not been able to finish his words Raksa entered with other students.
"where are you?" ask Raksa while keeping the white crackle there. Mayla turned her head for a while before her attenuation was diverted to the white crackle that Raksa had kept in front of her.
"eaten" Raksa said later,
"this for me? It was in my latrine" Mayla said as she turned, towards Raksa who was sitting behind her.
The Raksa buzzed in response.
Not so long lecturers filler courses also entered all students there began to pay attention to the exposure of the lecturer.
...•••...
Night becomes part of the activity used for rest, whether it's watching or just gathering with family, but there may be some people who still work at night such as minimarket employees for example.
Mayla sits alone in front of the convenience store while watching everyone passing by in front of the mini market, after finishing group work with her friends Mayla decided to stop by the minimarket first to buy canned coffee with the rest of the money.
"cape" said. The woman's gaze accidentally fell on two people who seemed to be father and son who were about to enter the minimarket, both of whom looked very happy.
Mayla paused for a moment to notice, before her attenuation she diverted along with her hand pulling the canned coffee seal that was on her desk.
Working while in college honestly is not her choice if Mayla can choose her better to be a home child than a boarding child. Yes, Mayla admitted she was a spoiled child especially before her father and mother decided to divorce. Her togetherness with her mother and father all lived the mere optical illusion she created alone. Apart from the alesannya ngekos because Rega apparently the second factor is family.
During his life, he said he never got problems, other than a flat motorcycle tire, removed from class, getting bad grades or crying because he was harassed. It was in the second grade of High School that Mayla went to court for the first time, attending the divorce of her parents. In an instant all her happiness was changed with tears and voidness.problems began to greet her life, nightmares came every night, fear became air for her. That's how Mayla is now.
"want where destiny took me" he muttered as he grasped the canned coffee he had just opened.
