The quiet atmosphere in the library room did not melt the spirit of Gian and Rani to study seriously. After tired of looking for Rani's whereabouts when the break suddenly difficult to find like a needle in a pile of straw finally they agreed to study together when returning home from school. This is where the two of them, deliberately set themselves up to discuss the matter of entering college. With the level of ambiance that stopped by the chase, Gian and Rani were very cool to discuss the problem. Sometimes they will argue on pretty complicated issues.
"Ran, this part of the numerator and the denominator is multiplied by four roots of two" Gian crossed out the two roots written by Rani.
"do you think you can?"
"let us have the integers. Thirty-two minus one by sixteen plus two, the result . ."
"thirty-one-eighteen." they whispered together.
Immediately Gian's smile was engraved small. Rani stared and recorded her dimemori Gian's distinctive smile. The corner of his left lip was raised up with both eyebrows raised up as well. With eyes that looked satisfied at the paper before him. It was like a pleasure to solve this problem. This pleasure that makes him addicted to solve the next problems. Just like a basketball player who is addicted to dribbling the ball and entering it in basketball or a football player who is addicted to kicking the ball and putting it in the goal. Gian takes great pride in learning and solving difficult problems such as challenging Gian's instinct to solve them with accurate results.
"oh yeah, where do you plan to go after Gi ends?" Rani threw a question when she felt it was the right time to ask because the next question only uses the previous formula.
"I plan to take mining techniques in ITB" replied Gian confidently.
"wow! coolest. I heard that I entered ITB terriblyhhh"
"yes. That's why I've been preparing since 11th grade. I also took a lot of classes in 11th grade."
"Your preparation is crazy. I just did a lot of early tutoring in 12th grade. I'm pretty busy in this 12th grade, I feel like my head's about to break into those things." Rani glanced at the matter collision on the table.
"nothin. You're a smart kid. You can catch up, there's still time. Focus on your goals." Gian spoke calmly and a heavy voice that made Rani suddenly goosebumps. He felt his heart start to rumble.
"hehehh . . . Thanks Gian. You are the best so support system" said Rani shyly while tucking her right side hair behind the ear.
"whaan support system" Gian geleng.
"ihh Gian can not be invited to cooperate. Let's like in the content tik tok that, there is support system so the learning is more diligent."
Gian did not answer again. He's just shaking slowly. He began to look at the tik tok attack that had entered into the bones of this friend.
"oh yeah, I'm planning on trying graphic design. You think I fit in?"
"em. . I think it's a good fit, do you also like to do cover art? If you have an interest in that field you can be more serious by entering the design department."
"yes right! I think the opportunity of graphic design today is very big because of the crazy development of social media."
"Well, you already know the opportunity ahead so you don't have to worry anymore. Focus on the entrance test"
"Ready! Thanks Gian. Oh yes I want to unplug, want to continue tutoring after this. See you" After collecting her belongings, Rani walked towards the door. Not until the five steps Rani turned around again.
"Gian, if I'm accepted into graphic design there's something I want to say to you" whispered Rani in Gian's ear before stepping again. This time it was out of the library.
Left behind Gian who is confused by Rani's statement. Why didn't Rani say it now? Or tomorrow? Why should after passing the announcement enter graphic design? Kan. Without bothering again Gian tidied up his things and stepped out of the library.
The school is starting to fall. It's only natural that it's four in the afternoon. It's been two hours since school. The other students must have gone home. Gian wears his airpods and tunes his favorite song of late from Coldplay-Yellow.
Just half a song spinning, Gian saw a fairly wide flower next to the moving school fence. The flower is able to hide anyone behind the flower when someone crouches. Gian pocketed his airpods and walked slowly full of curiosity.
"ah!" yelled at someone suddenly. Then stand while trampling the ground.
"why?" Gian tried to ask because he was sorry to see the face of the woman who was between holding back anger and crying at one time.
"se-ant. Sick of her bite." the woman squeaked and let out a tear on the left.
"where?"
"here." show it on the shoe part.
"try to open the shoes first. Then take off the socks." Like a boy, the woman did Gian's orders obediently.
"have you tried to open your shoes?"
"i-t-so I thought the ants had taken out and I kept wearing the shoes again uh suddenly bitten again but this hurts more." once again tears escaped his eyes without him being able to hold on anymore. I don't know why when asked this way he wants to cry more.
"already. Here let me help you get out the ants" said Gian not nice to see the woman in front of him crying louder. I guess he's cheating on this woman again.
Gian began to knock his shoes and socks on the ground long enough for him to see ants coming out and he stopped. Between thanking her or wanting to curse, the woman saw her shoes that had been somewhat stuffy and her socks were a bit stretched because of the strong horn Gian knocked. The woman could not speak anymore.
"This. Uh, you're a girl who's been a nudge of books, right?" just now Gian realized after looking at the woman's face carefully.
"yes. Thanks yeah." replied Eca resignedly while exhaling heavily.
"I'm Gian." Gian thrust his hand after rubbing it on his pants.
"know already. And I'm Eca"
"uh? How can you know?"
"smart kids are famous"
"not really"
"i know you from other children well just know the president. Btw, thanks a lot earlier," well even though my shoes are dented. Eca said with a smile that expanded until her eyes narrowed.
"yes."
"okay, if that's Gian." Said Eca walking backwards while looking at Gian.
"iya ha-" is not done yet Gian spoke Eca had already hit the trash can behind her.
"Be careful" Gian continued very slowly after the incident.
"shit! Heheheh daah" Eca quickly stood up and the road quickly left Gian behind.
"embarrassed coke. . shy shame . ." rfor Eca on herself.
