Not a single piece of rice was seen on top of Anders' soup bowl.
He finished one serving of the soup quite quickly, probably because he had been holding on to hunger from morning.
Now it's the turn of one cup of hot black coffee that will be the appetite satiation of his thirst.
Before he opened the lid of the coffee cup, he asked Ridha.
“Like coffee?”
“Can drink coffee.” replied Ridha so briefly.
“Why not like? Good coffee loh.”
“Like jengkol?” ask Rida back.
Anders shook his head signifying that he did not like the jengkol vegetables even though they were cooked in such a way.
“Why not like? Jengkol yummy loh.” same answer said by Ridha on Anders.
Anders smiled faintly, This woman in front of him is a woman who is not easy to reveal something.
In this day and age, many people claim to be an introvert just because their skills are less qualified, so they do not want to appear in public as themselves.
Recognizing as an introvert is considered as one alternative to overcome it.
But unlike the person in front of him at the moment, he was actually someone who was more dominant introvert than extrovert.
In fact, no one has the character as a full introvert or full extrovert.
They have only a dominant side. An introvert can never be an extrovert.
Another thing that can be done is to imitate some of the habits of extroverts they like.
With such exercises, it will at least reduce the prominence of one's introverted side.
Because for teenagers today, almost on all fronts will favor the extroversion side of someone.
Extroverts are considered to be more cool, and more sociable. In theory it is true, because they are easier to open up than introverts.
In the mind of Anders, he hopes that Ridha has learned the habits of an idol who is also an extrovert.
That way, Ridha will be easier to get many friends later.
His daydreams were broken when Ridha held Anders' hand.
“Before drinking coffee, before the break is over.” said Ridha.
Anders who heard that sipped his coffee and felt his favorite caffeine sensation.
“Thank you.” said Anders.
“What are you talking about, you don’t have to thank me.” reply Ridha.
“What do you think makes me late for school?”
“I’ve no idea. And, I don't want to speculate anything about you.” said Ridha.
With such an answer, Anders told him what had really happened.
He told me about how he was busy and excited to draw his dream building.
Not to forget, he also told a little leak of his ideals in the future after graduating from High School.
Until the Anders part tells the music he listened to and made him so drifting in his activities. Ridha suddenly cuts Anders' story.
“One of the best tenor singers in the world, Andrea Bocelli.”
“One of the classic singers who got seven times the World Music Award.” added Anders.
Anders and Ridha laughed and drifted away together. Anders himself did not expect that Rida is also a fan of classical music. Ridha to Anders.
“Then, which one do you like?” Rida asked me about Anders' favorite song.
“In the classical music genre or Andrea’s?” ask Anders back.
“Andrea of course.”
"Quizas, Quizas, Quizas." replied Anders.
"Why did you choose that song?" ask Ridha again.
"I don't really know what my favorite song is, but if it's Andrea's line-up, Quizas has a different feel to the music."
"I agree with you, the song Quizas tells of someone's anxiety. And again so perfectly packed." sahur Ridha.
They are both bound in the same bond of musical tastes.
Come to think of it, there are already two people who have a taste of classical music, Ridha and Alexa.
Anders thought, what would happen if these two women met.
Despite having the same musical taste, whether the two will melt forget their respective true nature.
Or even, the two of them favor each other through their musical knowledge.
Interesting things will happen if it is really done.
In his mind named Alexa, Anders tried to ask Ridha.
"Ridha, can I ask you something?"
"Of course, if I knew and it didn't bother me." she replied.
"Have you ever heard of a student named Alexa?" ask Anders while hoping Ridha knows something.
"Alexa? It doesn't seem foreign to my ears."
Ridha explained that when it was still in orientation week, there was someone who shouted the name Alexa on the second floor.
He turned to the source of the scream, but only a few male students were waiting for the bell to come in.
When his eyes went down the second floor in sight, there was not a single woman up there.
Hearing the second floor word spoken by Ridha, Anders cut the story just like that.
Anders explained whether the screams were the same location as the Alexa spot he saw at the time.
And it turned out to be true, the second floor place Alexa used to enter the main hall was the same.
Not accepting his curiosity piled up, Anders also asked if he had a friend from Junior High who also attended this High School.
Ridha does have friends, but he is a person who very rarely follows the gossip.
Even sometimes gossip that occurs around him alone, is considered nothing happens by being ignorant.
So many questions were thrown by Anders to Ridha, making Ridha a little annoyed at asking about other women.
On the other hand, he also wondered who the person named Alexa referred by Anders.
"Anders, what's Alexa's full name?" asked Ridha in a soft tone.
"The full name, .."
Not yet finished Anders answered the question, the bell in the lesson rang so loud.
Sontak made them immediately tidied up his appearance and packed up to go to class and continue the lesson on the first day.
