“Mahendra, Mahendra, Mahendra.” Niken continued to mention the name plan of the acting sister he had to meet.
Along the way, he looked around him either on the right, left, or front to find his acting brother Mahendra. However, for almost 10 minutes he walked, he still did not find the person he was looking for.
Niken was so cool to see his right and left side, that he did not realize there was someone standing in front of him. He who did not look ahead finally hit the person's body.
“Aduh!!” With the reflex Niken complained when his body hit the person's body. Thankfully, the collision was not too tight to make Niken do not need to fall like the story in the novel.
“Sorry, I didn't accidentally.” Niken apologized by bowing his body a little, as a courtesy. He did not look at the face of the person who was hit by him.
“I don't want to forgive you,” said the man. Of course the answer made Niken reflexively see who the person he hit was.
“Eh, so it is..” Niken's speech came to a halt when she realized who the person she hit just now.
He immediately changed his face to be lazy. While the perpetrator changes the look of his face is now trying to hold back his laughter.
“Ck, it turns out Brother Aril! Niken kirain. Though Niken has been afraid if you do not want to be forgiven,” said Niken sebal.
Finally, the laughter that had been held back by the person called Kak Aril by Niken was released. Aril laughs amusedly at the look on Niken's face that is upset.
Aril is a former neighbor, probably about 8 years old. However, about 3 years ago due to Aril's father's job demands, it required them to move out.
Niken used to play with Aril quite often. The biggest reason is because only Aril a child who is almost his age is around the housing that he lived until now, palace housing.
Niken and Aril are pretty familiar first. When Aril had to move, Niken even cried quietly in his room for a long day.
“If you are not forgiven, what do you want?” aril asked curiously after successfully calming down his laughter.
“Yes, no shit. At most Niken will continue to apologize until the person wants to apologize,” said Niken with his mainstay grin.
“Can be you,” said Aril while pinching Niken's cheek softly.
“Ck, what the hell! very habit, really likes to pinch the cheek Niken,” said Niken sebal while trying to remove the pinch of Aril on his cheek.
It seems like pinching her cheek is still one of Aril's habits. Aril also very often pinched his cheeks until reddened. If you remember it makes Niken even more upset.
“OK, okay,” said Aril as he raised both hands, a sign of surrender.
“Yaudah, don't bother that time, Ken. The ants will be afraid. Your face is very fierce,” taunted Aril.
“Apaan anyway, Brother! Ah ah, Niken males! How did you want to hear about Brother? How can you keep school here? Didn't you move out of town? But, yes you have, males Niken.”
“Ih, ih, ih, latch him. Yes, yes, the wrong brother. So Brother is sorry okay?” aril said he relented.
“Tau ah, tired,” says Niken.
“You are, forgive me. Let's just say we're even. You were the first one who hit Brother,” said Aril, trying to negotiate.
“Yes yes, Niken sorryin. Lagian tired if you have to debate, let alone the same Brother, surely the edges of Niken again who lost,” he said.
“Well, it's the new Niken that you know.”
“Btw, what are you looking for again? How do you not see the road?” ask Aril.
“Oh yes, almost forgot!” Niken patted her forehead slowly. Because of serving Aril, he almost forgot his purpose.
“This, Niken was told to find the acting sister whose name is Mahendra. Aril does not know which person?” ask Niken.
“Mahendra?” asked Aril astonished who replied nod by Niken.
“Know. What do you have to do with Mahendra?” ask Aril.
“Oooo, so this is the reason why you do not enter the ranks of new students for orientation yes,” said Aril nodded his understanding.
“Well, Pinter Kak Aril!” exciting Niken.
“So you know not?”
“Tau. If it's not wrong, Mahendra is in the hall. Try it out there, how do you know he's still there.”
“OK, Brother. But where is this the hall going? From this corridor continue to where?” asked Niken because he did not know all the school plans.
“You go straight until the end of the corridor, turn left later. Ready it just keep going until you see the big tree, then you turn right. Later you walk a little more until you see the building color cream. Well, that's the hall,” explained Aril gave instructions to Niken.
“You understand?” asked Aril when he saw Niken who did not reply.
“You understand, Niken?” reset Aril.
“Oh, understand, Brother,” replied Niken.
“Totally?” ask Aril back to make sure.
“Truly, Brother. Yes, from this corridor continues until the new end turns left. If you have turned continue to see a new big tree turn right. Later a little later see the building color cream. Well, that's the hall. Right, sis?” said Niken repeated the instructions given by Aril earlier.
“Good, it's real. Udah, go continue there you, later fear the punishment is added because of the delay,” said Aril with style like expelling.
“Hehehe, yes this Niken also want to go, Brother. Thanks yes, Brother Aril.”
“Iya, equally. But, sorry Brother can not join nganterin because Brother still has business,” said Aril while looking at his watch.
“Safe, Brother. Yaudah Niken departs now.”
“Oudah there, hush, hush, hush,” expel Aril.
“Iya Niken go, do not use ngusir too, Kak,” said Niken who saw Aril's behavior.
“Iya, yaudah there go on.”
“Iya, bring really,” sukut Niken. He began to step out of his feet to go to the hall. However, just there a few steps, Niken had stopped and turned his body.
“Kak Aril! Later sometime Niken will collect the story of Sister. Watch out if you don't want to! Because it's Kak Aril's debt that must be repaid!” niken said a little screaming because Aril's position was quite far away.
“OK!” aril said shouting.
After that, Niken continued his journey to the hall. He prayed that Mahendra would still be in the hall. The reason is of course so that he no longer has to bother going around the school to find. He was quite tired after running earlier and had to go around the school to find Mahendra.
Niken walks leisurely while looking around her school environment. He also hummed a little to comfort his solitude. His hair tied to the ponytail swayed slightly, following each step of his foot.
After walking for a while, Niken finally reached the destination. In front of him there is now a closed door with the inscription “Aula” on it.
Niken slightly exhaled violently, trying to calm herself who suddenly became nervous. After he felt a little calm, then he ventured to open the door of the closed hall.
Having just opened the door and wanting to step foot into the hall, he instead again crashed into someone who wanted to get out of the hall.
“Akh!” Niken groaned softly as her body fell, touching the ground. Niken lost her balance due to the collision just now.
“Eh, Sorry. You are okay, right?” ask the person who was hit by him just now with a little anxiety.
“No, Brother,” said Niken while waking up from the fall. He also cleaned his back clothes that were a little dirty because of a fall just now.
“What's really okay?”
“Totally Kok, Kak.” After the clothes were clean, then Niken saw who the person who hit him. However, a sudden silence is created when the retinas of their eyes see each other. Now they are staring without a sound.
