Magical grandmother, Alana's name for Ema. The horrible woman left ten minutes ago. Lily was still sitting in her original spot, drooping limp hearing the closing words from Ema.
"Two more months mama will come here, if until that time you have not been pregnant, then I will immediately bring a future wife to Arun"
Remembering that, those tears of pain came again. Seeps on his cheek. Hearing Alana's approaching footsteps, Lily hurriedly wiped away the trace of her tears. Alana brought a glass of warm water, thrusting forward Lily. "Drink first brother"
Hands trembling, Lily accepted and drank it. His throat does need to be wet, feels dry and sore.
"Should be sister against Aunt Ema, she can't be as careless as it is to big sister" said Alana sitting next to Lily. She could see Lily's trembling body, so Alana decided to hug her.
Alana put her chin on Lily's shoulder. "Don't cry anymore, brother will be sick"
"Al, was it before the day that Mom decided, you were already pregnant?"
That question certainly made Alana nervous. He doesn't like to talk about it. But to ignore Lily too she couldn't.
"Al. answered dong. That's all you can do for sister to calm down" Lily clasped her sister's hand tightly. Her dead life is now in Alana's hands.
"Where do I know brother. Doain aja.biar fast.hamil" said he choked.
One thing that Alana regrets, her brother does not want to tell Arun about the arrival of his mother with all the threats and also the humiliation pinned on Lily. His sister continued to cover up so that there was no quarrel between the mother and the child.
***
The Tunas Bangsa school hosts a one rayon inter-school basketball game. The friendly match was attended by almost 15 schools.
Alana looked at her lover who was competing as a basketball team. Just looking at her, Alana was already feeling elated. There was a calm feeling in his chest. The influence there is and there is no Gara is very big in his life.
"Gara.gara.." cheers from the audience who are mostly pests echoed the name Gara in GOR school. There is a pride in itself, if other girls can only stare and shout the name of Gara without any reply, adoring Gara in their minds and hearts, Alana is the owner of the man. He can touch and have the man's heart and mind.
For Alana, her luck was born in this world just because she could meet Gara, ushered in all the pain of her life.
"Cara...I love you" shouted a girl sitting on the second row bench under Alana's row. She knew the girl was a second-grade child, the secretary of the famous OSIS for her beauty.
"Ssssst.noisy knows ga" said Dita who dudu beside Alana.
"What lo? mind? I like dong. Don't think because I'm a senior who's afraid of you" replied Jesika jumawa.
"Udah, Ta. Do not respond"whispered Alana pulled Dita's hand so that the girl sat back down.
Alana and Jesika look at each other, then with pride Jesika throw his face and sit back. It is not Alana did not hear the news that the girl who is the deputy child of the Director of Pertamina liked Gara since the first time he entered this school. But Gara never hugged the girl, so why did Alana question her?
The first match between his school and Bhinneka High School was completed. The nation's shoots win with a thin score.
"Gue wants to know, girl because that's how. I heard B. If it's really that special chick at all, I want to call Gara from him"
From the school uniform of the girl and also her friends, they are not from the school of the nation buds. No wonder, Gara fame is not only limited to the walls of their school, but students from other schools also know him a lot. Handsome and also the head of the basketball team.
Alana's chest was painful to hear the girl's words. She should have dared to show herself, but was bullied since childhood by her father and mother blinded Alana's guts. She is embarrassed by her condition especially if until someone knows, she has become the betel husband's wife, but still confident to bear the status of Gara's girlfriend.
"Al, it's Gara nyariin lo" said Dita elbowed Alana, but the girl just lowered her head to hide her face in the body of the man sitting in front of her.
"Malah nduk" said Dita immediately raised his hand, signaling Gara to know their whereabouts.
Because he saw the wave of Dita's hand and immediately ran small towards them.
"Look...Gara."
"Cara..I love you.."
"That's a really cute thing"
The screams of the girls grew increasingly deafening. At least Gara did not respond to their call. Keep walking towards Alana's place.
"Yuk" For thrusting his hand at Alana. All who sat around them silently watched the scene. It was as if time stopped and just centered on them.
Alana's feeling expands. Suddenly courage appeared in his heart. If Gara just openly shows his feelings about acknowledging their relationship in front of many people, then why should Alana be afraid? not confident in yourself?
Alana's smile expands. Full of confidence welcomed the hand. Gara held Alana's hand tightly. The girl stood up following Gara's steps out of the hall. For bringing her to the back of the library where they could meet.
"Here, drink first" Alana handed him a bottle of mineral water that she had been holding since the beginning of the match. Alana did prepare for Gara.
"Thank you dear"
The words of love tickled his heart. I'm not the kind of guy who likes to say love. But behind there is no romantic attitude that he shows, Gara still treats Alana gently.
"I'm hungry. We're yuk's way"
"Where's the match?" Alana thought Gara took her out of the hall just for a moment, before returning back inside.
"Our school is done. Why else there, I better accompany the princess to the streets"
Alana's face flushed. Too perfect for him. He could only pray that they could always be together. Alana couldn't have lived without Gara. Only that man treated her like a human.
It only took 10 minutes for Gara to clean up and change clothes. Now both are on the road, crossing the highway to one of the malls. I want to buy a present for Alana. Maybe Alana forgot today was a historic day for their relationship, but Gara will always remember the date Alana said her willingness to be her boyfriend.
