Love of Antarctica
Chapter 8

Morning gymnastics on a cloudy, gray day. The students lined up according to their respective classes. Some students in front as examples of movement. Sports teachers also give instructions. Cold air slammed in between the sweat pouring out a movement. Twice a round of gymnastic music is enough to nourish the limbs.

Fiza glanced here to the left side of the line. There was Lembayung who was busy listening to the instructions from the teacher. He and all the rotten plans to bother him. Rara nudged the code so as not to be too flashy to see Lembayung.

“Stthh! Beware so more berabe” whispered Rara.

Fiza nodded in agreement. He put on a forced smile face. Today's activities are continued with work between classes. The day before, the students had been told to bring cleaning equipment. Fiza and Rara walked to the place where Lembayung was busy sweeping.

“Temba, I want to say nih” said Fiza put on a face of compassion.

“What's Za?”

“I don't know who slandered me Lemba. It wasn't me who did it, on that day Rara and I came early in the morning for a grade” picket

“Yes right what Fiza said. You believe us, right?” rara said with a face.

Alra watched their laughter, he just fell silent listening to all the words that were full of lies. He frowned looking at Lembayung's expression as if he didn't hate them for all those terrible deeds.

“Not discussed anymore. I don't think you guys did it.”

So this problem is over?

Seeing that they were gone, Arla headed for Lembayung who was continuing his work. While sweeping, Arla shook her head.

“Readyung, why are you silent after what Rara and Fiza did?”

“I don't want to cause a commotion. I hope they change and regret their actions.”

“Ya hope aja.”

Fiza showed a very sweet attitude pad Lembayung. As if where there is Lembayung then there is Rara and Fiza. Right after the service work is completed, the students rest in their favorite places. The canteen table on the right side is usually only filled by Lembayung, Kinan Dendra. Now there are two seats in Rara and Fiza.

“Loh what are you doing here? This is a special place for us three aja” Kinan quipped.

“You're so rude Nan!” rara raised her voice.

Fiza held Rara's hand, she asked him to calm down. Lembayung sighed, he patted the shoulder giving the code with a slightly narrowed eye glance.

“Sorry we have no intention. Let us visit za__”

“Ehh___”

Lemba was about to say something while standing up but her hand was pressed down on Dendra to sit down until she pecked.

The brown canteen table was especially for them. The arrival of Fiza and Rara only made the mood of the three become chaotic. Smoke in hot meatball sauce is usually immediately enjoyed by Lemba while putting a few spoons of chili and sauce on it. But it looks like he has no appetite today.

“Why not eat?” ask Kinan.

“Less what let me add in. The balance is less?” chirps Dendra.

“Huffhh.”

......................

Seeing Lembayung walk alone to the bathroom, Fiza and Rara approach him.

They put on an innocent face after three consecutive scolds. Needless to say, what is more frightening is not ghosts, demons or anything like that. But the person who pretended to be kind grinned in front with the thousand faces he put on.

“Readyung, later in the afternoon we work group together yuk.”

“Where is Za?”

“At your home yes.."

Group work in the library room, the three were busy doing chores. Fiza started to commit her crimes. He pretended to be unwell, held his head and staggered to the door.

“You why Za?”

“No idea Ra, my head is so dizzy.”

“Sit Za, ntar I ask the mbok takein medicine ya” said Lemba stood up to help support his body.

“Temba may I borrow your room for a short break?”

“Bby__”

He was taken to the room, even Fiza unequivocally went up to her bed. Seeing Fiza close her eyes, Lemba returned to the library room with Rara. The tasks they had to complete took a long time. The opportunity was taken advantage of by Fiza to search Lembayung's room. He saw a lot of fancy stuff tucked away in every drawer.

Luxury decorative glass on it is composed of various beautiful accessories. The needs of women are complete without any shortage. In Fiza's mind, if she planned to accuse Lembayung of stealing her valuables then many people would not believe it.

Fiza glanced at a white bracelet tucked inside a locked diary book. He looked for keys in every place, nightstands, drawers and wardrobes. Realizing Lemba's room was falling apart, she let out a hysterical scream as she ruffled her own hair.

“Arghh please!”

Fiza's screams were so loud, Rara and Lemba ran over to see Fiza standing on the bed.

“What's Za?"

“There are big rats!”

The incident of a fake rat to cover up the gelagat Fiza ruffled Lema's room successfully made her escape from suspicion. Mbok Jum and bi Tama join royong in search of a rat that Fiza says. Fiza and Rara hurried home. Lemba's diary he brought.

They were brought home by Mr. Totok. Fiza's impatient feeling to get home immediately opened the contents of the diary.

“How dare you take it what if Lemba tau?” whispered Rara.

“Ngak will.”

Kring___

The house phone.

Voice mail calls left behind.

The first message:

“Between dear, today father and mother there is overtime work at the office. You dinner first yes.”

Second message content:

“Kok your number is not active anyway. Have you not been home from school?” Kinant.

Fill in the third message:

“Temba, hp you broken or what? Why hasn't there been me all day?” Dendra.

Lembayung frowned after reading all those messages. Walk back to the room that was neat. She searched for her diary which she used to keep in the first order drawer near the dresser. He thought after cleaning the room the possibility of the mbok or bi Tama moving to another place. He slowly opened the drawers and other places but the book was nowhere to be found.

“Mbok and aunty while tidying up the room saw the red cover diary book?” ask Lembayung.

“As the mbok no such book non.”

“Ya non, aunty also notk see.”
