"I... I just..."
Clarice was stunned when Arsen railed against her with some difficult questions to answer. It is also impossible, if he tells Arsen, that he actually idolized the figure of Malvino Lubis since he first met in class X-3.
It could be that Arsen is offended, or it will even destroy the friendship that has been well established by all of them. Because a little Cal might feel too, if Arsen tries to get close to him. But the girl thinks Arsen's feelings are just a form of concern for her.
All this time, Clarice kept that unusual feeling alone. Never once did he reveal or tell anyone, including Hanna.
Clarice stared in a pair of Arsenic eyes that were fixedly staring at her. Clarice knew there was a sense of care that could not be expressed in the eyes of the young man. There's something buried in there that he doesn't want to decipher.
Arsen, who cares about Clarice, is worried about what she sees. Clarice's face was not as usual. Daydreaming while walking in the corridors was not something I had seen during this time.
Slowly but surely, both the riders hands were raised. Cupped a pretty face in front of her.
Half of Clarice's face was drowned in Arsen's arms, which must have been bigger than Clarice's. Although they are only 16-year-olds, who may be a few months away from having a sweet seventheen party.
"Don't cover anything from me, Clarice... I'll never mind if you want to share your grief or anything with me!" arsen said firmly and emphatically, albeit with a very soft tone of voice between two pairs of eyes that looked at each other.
But the eyes of the young man who looked at Clarice with a deep gaze made the girl sure that what the young man said was a seriousness that no longer needed to be doubted.
Clarice wants to share with Arsen about the feelings that grew at this age of adolescence, but has a ban on not having relationships with the opposite sex except friendship or friendship.
Instead of believing, Clarice actually returned with actions that she often did. Depressing everything he felt towards the tough rider. Even dismissed his admiration for the young driver.
"You stole the chance to touch my face, didn't you?" accuse Clarice of making a serious atmosphere, now back as before. Full of tension, constancy and far from a romantic word. "Deliver!" clarice's orders stomped a little spoiled.
"Ck!" Arsen screeched right in front of Clarice's face which she thought was always trying to look annoying in front of her eyes. "You really tested me, Clarice.." sissed Arsen softly with a sharp peeking gaze, but did not describe the stirring emotions.
"Remove, Arsenio Wilson.." keukeh Clarice.
"Tell me first, why are you like a dreamy person?" ask Arsen. "Like a young man many thoughts you .." said Arsen a little mocking.
"I'm not daydreaming..!" call Clarice. "So get that dirty hand out of my face!" ketus Clarice rounded her eyes at Arsen.
"Promise for the story after this!" force Arsen.
"No want! Take your hand, Arsenio.." keukeh Clarice. "You forgot? this corridor is being monitored by CCTV?"
"I don't care. Mostly we'll enter the BK room back together!" replied Arsen lightly.
"You're crazy, Sen!" clarice was a little restrained. "Deliver!" Cla began to hit Arsen's stomach on the side with his hand.
But instead of letting go, Arsen did not care at all about Clarice's punch which did not hurt him at all.
"If I don't want to, what?" asked Arsen not one bit to take off his hand that cupped Clarice's face. He just smiled thinly. It was challenging in an unusual way.
Arsenes are not concerned with CCTV recording their actions. It may even have recorded their conversation albeit cryptically. Because both of them do talk with a fairly smooth intonation.
"I'll bite you!" cla replied with a hardened tooth, as if he was biting something. His eyes piqued sharply to give Arsen a sinister impression.
"Bite my lips?" bargain Arsen deliberately teases Clarice. He even brought his face closer to Clarice's face, which frowned.
Plain Clarice certainly does not understand, for what and why should the lips called by the young man. Why not the other part. For example, the arms, hands or ears.
Clarice as much as possible pulled her face back because she was uncomfortable with the position of the face that close. Although he could only slightly retreat, keep his beautiful face away from the handsome face of an Arsenio Wilson. Which is definitely a lot of girls want to touch this handsome face.
"It's disgusting." - Clarice imagined something she shouldn't touch.
"So you think that touching my lips is disgusting?" tanya Arsen is getting teased.
Clarice belied hearing Arsen's answer which made her distrustful and incomprehensible. Cla stared in disbelief at what Arsen said.
"You crazy?" clarice looked at Arsen.
"No!" replied Arsen still holding firmly Clarice's jaw. "Biting someone's lips is fun, Clarice." whispered Arsen very softly.
"You ever?" snapping Clarice with wide-eyed swerving.
"No!" Arsen shook his head quickly. "You want to be the first one I bite?"
"Never!" cla replied very firmly though softly. "Then, how do you know it's fun?" clarice asked as if she was interrogating someone.
"From what I see.." replied Arsen casually with a mischievous smile.
"Have you seen?"
"Earlier." replied Arsen lightly and flatly.
"Where do you see such a strange thing happening?"
Arsen chuckled, feeling uneasy with the plain extraordinary innocence of Clarice. How could such a thing be called strange. Even though he himself had never felt it.
"What's weird?" ask Arsen. "So you think biting the lips of the person we like or even love is weird?"
"Yes!" answer Clarice as she is. "What's the point?" Clarice squinted her eyes next to mine.
"Damma!" Arsen chuckled softly. If not in the corridor, the young man would have laughed.
"That's not weird, Clarice.." Anxious Arsen.
"Then?"
"That's something fun." replied Arsen staring at the thin lips of Clarice who was naturally pink, and only in the thin lip gloss.
The shadow on the normal head of the racer would have been wild everywhere. It's just that he still knows himself for now.
The extremely innocent Clarice sneered with a lip gesture. "It's fun how.. You've really gone crazy, Sen!" spray Clarice.
"Haha! Yes, you are right! I'm crazy." replied Arsen chuckling with his hand still cupping the girl's jaw.
"Damn!" upset Clarice. "Deliver!" said the girl removed Arsen's hand from her face forcibly.
Arsen took off his hand which cupped Clarice's face with force. And the originally overcast face now looks back to normal. Beautiful, tart and sometimes adorable for an Arsen. Because he became the only young man who was always given a tough attitude by the girl.
"Don't try to talk to me no-no, yeah." said Clarice with a slight threat. "You have a lot to learn from Nauval! He never talks about anything weird like you! And what he saw was also definitely not as strange as you!"
"Huhahah!" Arsen again laughed. "Nauval never discussed it in front of you, but that doesn't mean he never saw it, Clarice Sayaang.." angered the driver.
"Where are you from?" clarice spray doesn't accept.
"We used to watch together!" arsen replied in a whisper. "Sometimes in my house, sometimes in her house!" reply Arsen.
Cla squinted his eyes, not wanting to be that easy to believe what the driver was talking about.
"It's important to avoid CCTV in our house..."
"Blood you!" clarice's blow pushed Arsen's stomach back one step.
"Cla..it's normal! all the boys did all that." whispered Arsen so as not to be heard by CCTV.
"All right! But answer my question first... Why do you look dreamy with a very cloudy face." asked Arsen again to be a serious young man.
But the one in question could only sigh deeply, without intending to answer seriously anyway. In addition, he was also still upset with Arsen's talk before this.
"What's this?" tanya Arsen raised Clarice's grasping hand.
"It's nothing!" clarice replied, forcibly pulling her hand before Arsen managed to open her hand.
Quickly the girl put the object she held into the pocket of her school skirt which was only up to 10 cm above the knee.
"Who is this chocolate from?" tanya Arsen pointed at the brown on Clarice's left hand.
"Why are you so curious?" clarice asked to hide the chocolate with the purple wrap behind her back.
"In school there is no such chocolate." murmured Arsen continued to attempt to investigate further. Whether the chocolate had anything to do with Clarice's unusual facial features.
"Oh my goodness, Arsen.... Please! Why are you so scared of whatever I bring!" gaol Clarice.
"I just want to know, people say, the sadness can be slightly reduced by eating chocolate. Do you eat chocolate to reduce your sadness?" tanya Arsen.
"Yes, you are right! I ate this chocolate so as not to grieve." replied Clarice.
"Why are you sad?" sahut Arsen looked back at Clarice's face deeper.
"Not all problems should be told to others, Arsenio." replied Clarice.
"But there's nothing wrong to tell, Clarice.." forcibly Arsen.
"Huhu...." Clarice let out a rough breath. "Easy! I'm going back to class!" clarice. "Can't you leave the class of more than two students?" ask Clarice to remind. "Why did you come out?"
"Yes.it's true!" arsen replied. "Who else is out of class besides us?" asked Arsen pretending not to know.
"don't pretend you don't know." replied Clarice.
And Arsen was back to a short chuckle. "Where is Vino?" ask Arsen. "Did he deliberately skip Chemistry lessons?"
"No! he's in the toilet!" answer Clarice.
Arsen stared at the toilet. No more students were seen going out or going into the toilet. There was only a cluster like Vino that he had seen. The corridor is empty. There's only the two of them.
' Whereas Clarice and Vino left the classroom since then, why did Vino just go into the toilet? '
Inner of the racer.
' Did they talk first? What are they talking about until they have to linger in the toilet! '
The soul of the racer is being mastered by an infinite curiosity. Although he did not think at all if there was a taste in the taste of Clarice for the Atlit, Arsen was still curious.
"You want to go to the toilet? go!" clarice shifted Arsen's body in his way.
"No! actually I was just looking for you... Why leave the old class so soon!" reply Arsen.
"You really lack work!" snickered Clarice immediately stepped forward quickly. Heading back to his class leaves a feeling of unease that he had just felt before meeting Arsen.
"Cal?" call Arsen.
But the girl chose not to care about the call that Clarice thought was definitely not important.
Arsen chuckled, but he let Cla leave him without answering his last call. And now he walks to the toilet.
***
"It's been in the toilet for a long time, Vin?" asked Arsen when he found Vino sitting squatting next to the sink while playing his phone.
"It's a slack Chemistry lesson." Vino replied looking up at Arsen.
"Yes! Me too!" sahut Arsen who immediately took a position to crouch in front of Vino.
"You alone?" ask Vino.
"I was thinking you and Clarice were deliberately ditching the Chemistry clock. Why not take me? uh when I got Clarice out of class!"
"Aren't Clarice daring to deliberately ditch the class hours?" ask Vino. "I know he never did that."
"Yes, I never did." replied Arsen. "I'm just wondering, why did you guys leave class for so long?" Arsen tries to dig up information from Vino. Maybe the athlete knows why Clarice suddenly looks sad.
"Nothing.." replied Vino. "I was bored in class. Coinciding with Clarice coming out of the female toilet. Then chat for a minute."
From the beginning, Vino had suspected that Arsen had feelings for Clarice. He had guessed that if Arsen showed up, he would talk to the girl first. And that's been proven by the length of time he waited for Arsen to show up in the toilet.
Especially yesterday he got evidence that can not be challenged. That's a gift from the racer for Clarice. Of the many female students in the class, only Clarice is given souvenirs in the form of bracelets with different shapes.
There is a part of the bracelet that Arsen gave to Clarice made of real gold. That is the part of the decoration that forms the letters C L and A. It was as if the bracelet was in a message specifically for the girl. At an unusual price.
And what makes Vino feel inferior is that the bracelet was actually worn by Clarice along with a watch commonly used by the girl.
"What's been in the toilet... Is cla sad?" ask Arsen.
"Sad how?" vino asked, not understanding.
"Yes, I saw him sad when he returned to class. Until she realized she was walking into me!" reply Arsen.
Vino tries to remember every expression of the girl while with him. And he felt Clarice's expression seem ordinary. No sad faces and so on.
"As far as I was, he seemed ordinary." replied Vino as he was. "I just heard him complain while walking back to class."
"Whatever how?"
"Yes.. He felt like pain. But I see he doesn't stumble and so on." Vino replied seriously.
Arsen thought while weighing Vino's answer and Clarice's answer earlier. But the driver felt he could not find the answer to each other.
"I thought he went to the cafeteria to buy some chocolate!" mummified Arsen. "I saw him carrying chocolate. But as far as I know chocolate like that is not sold in this school cafeteria..."
"Oh, the chocolate Clarice brought was me who gave." replied Vino.
"Damn it!" arsen reflex. "So that's a gift from you?" ask Arsen. "Why is Clarice the only one to give? Me and the others?"
Arsen's question that seemed not to accept because it was not given chocolate was actually a protest or a form of jealousy, why only Clarice was given. It was as if Clarice was someone special to the Atlit.
"That's not a gift, Sen!" answer Vino.
"Want to?" Arsen squinted his eyes. He must know why Vino only gave Clarice.
About what kind of reaction did Arsen hear Vino's answer?
