The Rival Beside Me
The BEM Chairman Election

His eyes filled with tension.

His hand kept moving playing a pen on the table. His heart rate is beating faster. Sometimes even looks to justify his glasses. It was Shabila Anastasya. And commonly called Lala. She is one of the female students, as well as one of the BEM presidential candidates this year. His face looks very serious. He listened carefully to the results of this year's BEM presidential election. Not only Lala, the other Candidates also felt the same way. Without exception a student who becomes a competitor. The student was named Rise. They looked equally tense awaiting the outcome. Patiently, the results finally came out.

" And who earned the most points as president of BEM this year is Bangkit Sanjaya." Said the Head of Prodi majoring in Management as a reader of selection results.

Immediate applause echoed in the BEM room. Lala looks very disappointed. And Rise clearly looks so proud. The student Lala hates. Because he is Lala's toughest rival to him.

" As for the position of vice president of BEM, Shabila Anastasya." Again the sound of applause echoed back.

Lala was surprised to hear that. Lala hopes to be president of BEM. But he did not expect to be vice president of BEM. Especially as a representative of a Bangkit Sanjaya. Lala hated him so much. He's the guy Lala hates the most on this campus. His style is all-around pretentious.  Makes him infeel see it. Especially when his handsome style appeared. Oh my God, Lala really wants to puke looking at him.

But what power, it turns out destiny wills to rise who became the Chairman of BEM. Lala had to accept it sincerely. Even if it's very difficult. Lala took a long breath. A sign that He is trying to be patient for the results this time. While Risen looks very enthusiastic and enthusiastic.

" Congratulations yes! Congratulations!" The words were heard alternately in Lala's ear.

Arise turned his head towards Lala with a triumphant smile. Lala only responded with her cynical smile. Lala was a little disappointed. Sani who saw it looked sad. However, Sani is one of Lala's closest friends.

" La! Come already. We're going to class! " Take Sani.

Lala complies with Sani's call. He stepped out with a look of disappointment. Every now and then Lala kicked the pebbles that blocked her path.

" Why is he." Lala complains in the middle of the journey.

" Why am I the representative" added Lala impressed still not accept.

" It was La. Gratitude aja. A lot of girls want to be close to Rise loh." Sani.

" Are you entertaining or making fun of me?" Ask Lala.

" Both." Sani answered the horse.

...***...

Early in the morning Lala had already bent her face.

Lala stepped foot into the classroom. He had exhausted his intention to go to the office of Chairman Prodi. All because of the resurrection. Rise is seen being in the room of the Chief Prodi.

"I really hate him.

He thought his cleverness, good looks and wealth could be proud of that. You daggers." Gerutu Lala while exploring the campus corridor.

" La!!!" The voice called him.

Rise up to see the road in a hurry approaching Lala

" Do you know my idea yesterday? I'm planning a music show on campus. Raising funds for orphans. It turned out to get a positive response from the Chairman of the Management Study Program." Obviously Rise at length.

'Look at how pleased he was to show off his success.' Think Lala.

" Do not know. Didn't you just say it? " Lala shook her head and reminded him.

" Oya, I forgot La. I'm so glad my idea always works. " Rise up and smile at all the friends they pass by. Surely most of the girlfriends who were targeted were Awakened, to seek his attention.

" Can you change that attitude. Your gayness is making me feel sick and hate you even more." Lala was honest and outspoken.

Rise laughing.

" It's lucky that you hate me. I also hate strong girls, nosy and thin like you." Rise up with a faint smile.

While shaking his head.

Yes, Risen rivaled him in everything in this dikapusnya. Not only organized but also in achievement. And Lala hopes enough on this Campus to compete with him. Don't let the next life. Lala met with great hope.

...***...

A week later. In a BEM room.

All members of BEM appear to have entered the room. They want to discuss the proposal of the BEM activity plan.

Rise up, Heri, John, Yuri, Sila, Fani, Sani and Lala have seen the trunk of his nose in this room.They just wait for Eko and Dimas. They haven't seen the trunk of his nose at all.

One by one the members are busy. They look like someone is wobbly. Someone stays relaxed. Some are sleepy.

While Lala is fond of drawing a guy who she secretly likes. Lala smiled to herself seeing the results. The picture honestly looks really bad. But Lala was surprised. Suddenly he picked up his book. Lala ran after him.

" Yes! Return my book!" lala shouted in the BEM room.

Instead of stopping, Bangkit instead ran around a row of benches, which were neatly arranged in the BEM room. He spontaneously stopped and immediately laughed when he saw the picture of Lala. Lala immediately took it.

" What is La? You draw a guy? why like a monster?" Tanya Rise laughing.

" Where is a monster." Lala said as she sat back near Yuri and Sani.

Sila, Fani and Heri who were busy with their respective phones were disturbed. They turned their eyes towards Lala and got up.

" Yes! You're both. Can't be noisy in the BEM room. You're the chairman and deputy, but like Tom and Jerry when you're both." Please be annoyed to hear their noise.

" It's a storm." Added Fani.

" Yes, just make me hungry." Heri followed the reprimand.

" Don't blame me. Rise up that bullies me." Lala did not accept Sila's reprimand.

" Kit, can't you get some attention from the students out there?" Please add Please suggest.

" No, I'm bored." Rise is seen sitting back quietly.

Not long after Eko and Dimas just seen the trunk of his nose.

" Yeah! Where have you guys been? We've been waiting for you guys since to start the meeting." Rise up as you move your hands pointing to Eko and Dimas.

" I'm sorry Boss. We forgot a little." Eko cengengesan.

And Dimas seemed to be just smiling sweetly and acting cool. Lala silently watched him. And feel happy to see a guy who does not have much behavior like him. Lala smiled to herself.

Rise up and frown his forehead. He saw Lala acting strange.

" Rise! The meeting begins. I'm still in college any minute." Yuri's complaint made Bangkit instantly shift his focus.

" okay. Ok." Say Rise while opening his laptop and connecting to the projector.

Rise displaying his proposal documents on the projector screen. That is the basis for the presentation of the BEM activity plan. This is done in order to raise funds, for orphans.

All members looked carefully. Bangkit explained step by step in each slide.
