After the stray basketball hit my head, people talked about me. If the stray ball thrower wasn't Javier, maybe they wouldn't have talked about me.
Yasmin continued to urge me and asked if I was okay. He was worried that something was missing in my head because of the basketball. He thinks my behavior has gotten more strange since that incident.
“Lo so often laughs to yourself,” Yasmin said as we had lunch together in the campus cafeteria. “Look, people are ngeliatin lo kayak crazy.”
I laugh every time I remember that. I imagined Jevan's face dented with a basketball hit. It felt satisfied to see the shadow of his shattered face.
“No, you smile again. Lo why the hell, Na?” yasmin again.
“I’m okay,” I said.
“Lo always says ok when clearly no ok!” grunts Yasmin. “Lo realized no, Javier the Great squatting in front of you, his face worried, I sorry to you and how are you okay? And you just said thank you? Oh, come on! Something's wrong in your head!”
“Gue is ok, don't worry,” I said again. “Gue thanks Javier for throwing the ball at me.”
“Hah?” Yasmin looked at me in disbelief. “Where, how? I don't understand. Try selangin.”
“After hitting the stray ball, I became fully aware. Jevan's shadow instantly vanished in my head. Booms! Like a bomb exploding, smashed to pieces,” I said as I illustrated the explosion with both hands.
“Ck,” Yasmin clucked. “Lo is indeed magical, Na,” said. “Lo can still be relaxed and indifferent at the time of people gibahin elo.” Yasmin glanced at someone who was blatantly pointing at me. He then nodded to that man. “Lo is crazy about him,” Yasin pointed at the guy.
“They don't know the real story. Later people will forget,” I said. “Gue is not an artist, yes I have to clarify?”
“Where to forget? If the one who threw the basketball was not Javier, maybe he was. But this is Javier, Na. Why don't you pretend to faint in front of Javier?” ask Yasmin. “At least the story will be more interesting, you will not be said to be bengong bego, crazy, crazy.”.
I shrugged my shoulders. “Not necessarily he will carry me and try to make me aware.”
Yasmin took a deep breath. “Kan can try first, maybe he panicked continue to carry elo.”
I laugh. “Gue don't want to be shy for things that are difficult to achieve.” I sipped my drink until it ran out, then rushed to follow the next course.
Yasmin hurriedly finished her drink and half ran after me. “Please cake, if you want to go,” grunt.
Yasmin's right, people call me crazy. Time yes, there are people who have been hit by basketball the reaction is just dumbass? Minimal pain.
I heard that conversation from the campus toilet. I let the people who gossiped out first. Surprisingly, I wasn't angry at all hearing them gossip about me. It even sounds funny.
I also heard the same whispers while borrowing books in the library. People near me realized that I was the girl who suddenly became a bego after being hit by Javier's basketball. Again, I can only smile. Once I was famous, it was for silly reasons.
Not to mention the other whispers along the corridor. Yasmin's right, it's because of Javier. If only the one who threw the basketball was not Javier, it seemed impossible for me to be the material of a college gibb like this.
“Hai, J hater!” I heard Juan's voice right behind me as I walked into the parking lot. What did he say just now? J hater's?
I looked up and saw Juan smiling. “Means me?”
Juan nodded. “Lo hater guy initialed J right?” I didn't respond. He continued, “Hmm, I heard rumors you got stray basketball and the culprit was Javier. No wonder how much I hate you now the same guy initialed J.”
“Lo just want to say it doang?” my many.
“Oh, certainly not. There are many who want me to obrolin the same lo.”
“Sori, I have no time.” I rushed to where my bike was parked.
Juan followed me from behind. “Kirana right?” tanyakanya.
I stopped my steps and for the second time turned towards him. “It looks like you already know my name, thanks to Javier.” stray ball
Juan laughing. “Thank to Javier!” said. “Eh, didn't you also say thanks to him? Your issue suddenly so bego it really is not?” Juan looked curious.
“According to lo?” i'm glaring.
“It looks like it's not,”. “But why did you even say thanks? Head you got a stray ball, it hurts.”.
“Lo why the hell?” cut me. “It seems to be very much the same as my business. Can it go far? I want to go home.” I walked quickly to my bike and hurriedly pulled the key out of my pocket.
Juan is still a stubborn. He followed me and stood behind my bike. “Why do you want to rush home?” tanyakanya.
“Ck,” I clucked. “I order dong, want to rush the cake, want selow kek.” I turned on the motor and carelessly moved back until it almost hit Juan. “Gue sayain also move aside.”
“Besok lo there is another lecture right? I am samperin you? Watch out for the words!” said Juan.
“Ih, what the hell is chattering,” I said. “Soaring!”
Juan's blocking my bike again. “Just tomorrow I am samperin lo,” he said. “Gue not finished same lo.”
I frowned. “What's unfinished? Not so obvious!”
Juan showed off his annoying smile. “I'm the same solution lo,” said. “See you tomorrow, sweetie! Tomorrow we continue again huh?” after that he waved his hand and just passed by.
Sweetie said? Ish, why are there so many strange people around me? I'm already weird enough, please don't be weird anymore!
The next day, people were talking more and more about me. This time it's not because I suddenly bego or go crazy because of Javier. But there was something else that made the girls stare cynically at me.
I don't understand what's going on. I only understood after Yasmin ran in breaths approaching me on the campus courtyard. With great difficulty he caught his breath before telling me anything.
“Sabar,” I said. “Sit first gih.” I took him to sit on a concrete bench near us.
Yasmin sat down. “Javier nyariin elo,” said. “Javier, Na! JAVIER!”
“Yes, why then?”
“Hah? So why?” Yasmin started gregetan. “Why do you ask why? This is a reaction I didn't expect from you. Javier the Great nyariin elo!”
I'm rattled. “Yes why is he following me?”
Yasmin pulled out her phone. “She netwit, Na. He went to people, some know elo no, the girl who the other day accidentally hit a basketball throw him.” With a quick movement Yasmin searched for the tweet in question, then showed it to me. “Nih, look!”
I took Yasmin's phone and read Javier's tweet. The guy asked me who I was and said he wanted to see me apologize again. I read the replies one by one. His followers mostly did not know who I was, until I finally found a reply from someone who mentioned my name.
I glared at Yasmin. “Heh! Why do you reply?” my many. I showed a clear reply from Yasmin's account. He vividly typed my name with capital letters. “KIRANA. Department of Historical Science, my bestie. FYI, he's not crazy, just in shock.”
“Because Javier asked,” replied Yasmin. “Gue just reply, before I wriggle lo.”
“Kan lo don't have to answer!” my protest.
“Kan Javier!” Yasmin. “She said she wanted to apologize again. She doesn't feel good, Na!”
“Aish, all right know.”
“Kalo so why should he ngetwit everything? He ngetwit so because it is not good, because at that time you immediately go, continue people think you are crazy!”
There was a notification from Twitter, I haven't had time to read it, Yasmin has been hunted snatching her phone. Both of his eyes glared as he read the notification.
“Na! Javier DM me!” said. “OMG! What dreams am I semalem! He said he'd meet elo! Well, you should meet him anyway! MUST!”
“How do I not want?”
“Asli you really become bego because of the stray ball!”
“Heh!”
“What hah heh hoh? I'll bale ya, let him nyamperin you later in the afternoon. Free place!”
“Ih, how is it? Where's siniin! Let me have bales!”
“Ih, this is the DM to me, how is it bales?”
“YASMIN!” i glare.
“KIRANA!” Yasmin glared.
Ah, free. Yasmin's finger as fast as the shinkansen hit back at Javier's DM. Once he's determined, he won't give up. Because we yelled at each other too, we were the center of attention for a while.
“Beres!” yasmin said later. “We don't know what the future is like, so meet up first, okay?”
“Ih, my manager is not either, why do I feel so regulated?” my protest.
“Because you can't benefit the situation!” reply Yasmin.
I was just about to reply to Yasmin's words when Juan suddenly appeared with his annoying smile. She even pretently snuggled onto my shoulder and greeted Yasmin casually.
“Ih, what the hell!” I threw Juan's hand. “Do not get along!”
“Sorry, I feel like I made an appointment with Javier, not Juan,” Yasmin said. He looked confused as to why Juan looked so familiar to me.
“Gue made a first appointment with Kirana yesterday,” Juan said.
“Hah? Where are there such promises?” my protest. “Udah ah, I have a lecture. Don't disturb early in the morning!”
“Gue just want ngingetin doang, later out of college I want nyamperin elo, do not make promises with others first,” said Juan.
“Wah, can't, sir,” refutes Yasmin. “Later noon Kirana wants to meet Javier. Can you just give up first? This is more important, related to Kirana's reputation on this campus.”
I'm going to Yasmin. His words are getting worse. Juan was confused and did not understand Yasmin's explanation. But there is also a good thing Yasmin said I have an appointment with Javier, maybe Juan gave up and did not insist on asking for nyamperin.
“Lho, did I make an appointment first,” protest Juan.
“What purpose lo exactly?” my many. “You know who the cake is, yeah it's up to me! It doesn't matter who makes a double promise, I decide!” I said firmly. “Udah yes, I'm late.”
I hurriedly left and hoped Juan would not follow me. Damn my steps tripped over the broken paving and made me lose my balance. I thought my body was going to fall. But a pair of sturdy hands swiftly restrained my body so that I was spared from embarrassing events.
“Be careful dong!” said Juan.
Aish, shit! Why would Juan do that? I think it's more embarrassing than falling to the ground. I frantically tried to break away from Juan's arms and stand in balance.
“Measuring him don't rush,” Juan said again.
“Thanks.” That's all I can say before I walk away with my head bowed in shame. The people who saw me almost fall and arrested Juan finally have a new topic of gibah. From Kirana bego, it might be Kirana caper.
“KIRANA! Wait for me!” Yasmin shouted behind me, ignoring the sight of the people who were scared.
Jeez, Yasmin's shrill voice only worsened the situation. Why have I been so fucking bad lately?
