Namoras
Blame yourself poor

That morning at school, Namora who had just gotten off Jol's motorcycle seemed to be noticing something. It didn't go unnoticed by Jol. Because last night, they exchanged WhatsApp messages and Namora told him everything that happened between her and Merisda.

From what Namora tells him, Jol can conclude that all this time he was just being played by Merisda. But, Jol did not dare to say that to Namora for various considerations. Anyway, it's too late. Namora was already going all out with that girl.

"You looking for Merisda?" Tanya Jol watched Namora who looked wry.

Namora nodded her head. He looked like a desperate man.

"Already Namora. Learn to think realistically! I'm afraid you're just being used by Merisda,"

"I'm still convinced that all this can be fixed. I know Merisda. We've been together seven months. He was willing to use me" Namora was still unsure of what Jol said.

Hearing the words from Namora, Jol blew his breath out loud. "I just hope that you won't be disappointed" Jol patted Namora on the shoulder, then began to step away from the school parking area towards the classroom.

Namora's coming after Jol. He intends to enter the class first to put down his bag, then later will come out again looking for Merisda. He was still convinced that their relationship would be fine.

At the entrance to the classroom, it turned out that there were already Jericho, Juned, Jaiz, James, Julio and Jufran waiting for them.

With a smile, Jericho immediately greeted the arrival of Jol and Namora. "Hey. You're staying up late, aren't you? Why are you getting up so late?"

"It's not me. But him!" Jol pointed towards Namora.

Jol actually woke up faster. However, due to waiting for Namora, she became late.

"Haha. Namora.., Namora!" Ejek Jericho's. He said again, "uh. I heard, yesterday afternoon you were barely walking from downtown Batu back home?!" Ask Jericho. He knew this story from Jol.

Namora just smiled awkwardly. He doesn't know what to answer. The truth is so. If it wasn't for Ameng's best friend, maybe he would have crawled back to the police service housing.

After seeing that Namora had nothing to say, they finally discussed something else, until James saw three girls passing by in front of them.

"Crush... That's Merisda passing by!" James said, turning his lips.

All eyes turned toward Namora and Merisda who were walking in turn.

"You said you wanted to see Merisda, right? Meet me!" Jol told Namora.

Namora ran into the classroom to put down her book bag, then came back out, then approached Merisda.

At that time, Merisda was joking with Ernita and Dosma. They seem very excited. But, the smile on Merisda's lips immediately faded when she saw Namora half-running over to her.

"Mer. I want to talk to you!" Without further ado, Namora immediately expressed her intentions to the girl.

Merisda immediately sneered. He snorted in annoyance, then immediately passed with wide strides.

"Mer. You why?" Namora ran to align her steps with Merisda, then grabbed the girl's hand into hers.

"Ih. What the hell? Release!" Merisda looked annoyed and snatched her hand violently.

"You why Mer? What's wrong?" Namora asked with a pity. He was confused as to what mistake he had made. If it was because of the dolphin doll that made Merisda sulk, it really was something that she was incapable of. And Merisda had long known that this Namora was not the son of a rich man. If that's the reason, isn't this Merisda looking for a cause with him. Intentionally looking for his mistakes.

"Is your fault? Your fault is, why are you poor? It's disgusting!" Merisda spat to the ground, then passed leaving Namora with an insulted face ripple.

Namora continued to stand in her place earlier. He seemed to have come from a dream. Never did he imagine that the usually good Merisda, always defending himself, would turn 180 degrees. In the past, she was so proud of her relationship. Merisda, even the duitan eye, but very attentive. She remembers when she was bullied by Rendra and her friends, Merisda would appear in front to defend her. But now..?

One hand rested on Namora's shoulders. When Namora turned her head, she saw that Jol was already standing next to her.

"Do you believe it now?" Ask Jol. He seemed very concerned for his friend.

Namora did not answer. He looked at Jol for a moment, then said, "you didn't have breakfast? Let's go to the canteen!" Namora walks ahead.

Right now, both Jol, Jericho and the others could only take heavy breaths. They were so sorry to see Namora. To them, this Namora must have been played. Because, from the very beginning, there was nothing to be proud of from Namora. Of the eight, Namora is the poorest. But why was he chosen by Merisda without any proper reason. This indicates that Namora has long been a target. Maybe because he's too innocent.

"Just keep it clear. I'm sorry to see Namora. He's like a sweet finish, dumped,"

"Blame her being too innocent" Jericho replied.

"Who knows? If Merisda had approached you, you would not have guessed that you were being played. Everything looked so good on the surface," said Jol who felt lucky not to be the girl's victim.

Merisda is so beautiful. School flower. But her heart was not as pretty as her face. If her heart was beautiful, it was impossible for Namora's savings to be drained by her.

"How's this? I'm afraid Namora can't accept the reality" Julio looks at Namora's back that's already moving away towards the canteen.

"We are big. Namora must be able to accept reality" Jol said. After all, Namora should be realistic. Because, if he is not heartened, then it is tantamount to torturing himself.

"How do you think?" Ask Jericho anyway. He thought that it was good to ask his friends the solution for Namora.

"Namora might need a friend. Leave everything to me!" Jol answered a question from Jericho just now.

"Yes already then. I'll take him to the cafeteria. I'm afraid he'll be bullied by Rendra.

"Come on!"

The seven teenage boys immediately walked to the cafeteria to catch up with Namora. Right now, maybe Namora needs someone to be her friend to pour out her feelings.

Since junior high school, only they have always been close friends of Namora. They know exactly what Namora is like. An innocent person, who is very stupid and gullible. Maybe it was the influence of what he had experienced long ago. In the past, he was always bullied, in caci, in humiliation and no one wanted to be friends with him. Naturally when there are people who pay attention to him, Namora will give up whatever he has just to please the person to continue to want to be friends with him. In fact, the J7 often receives kindness and sincerity from Namora.

Seriate...
