The Smell of Love Imriyah
A Paper Slice
-2011-
Fatih fell silent when the girl he knew left him without giving him any chance at all to continue the question. He looked at the girl's back in silence. There was another taste in his heart, but he could not explain what it was like. Now his eyes turned to a paper lying beside the trash can, he was curious, what kind of paper should do the engagement first to throw it away, without a second thought Fatih picked up the shabby paper. He had not opened it yet, an announcement was heard if the graduation procession would begin soon.
Forgetting his curiosity for a moment, Fatih stuffed the paper in his pants pocket. Then ran to the venue, where all her friends were ready to graduate. Sit down immediately and spread your gaze to the row of benches on the right, looking for the paper waster
"Search what the hell?" Fatih was shocked to hear the question of one of his friends
"There's no..." In short and sit quietly
"Let's look over there...!" Pointing his friend in a direction, where there was sitting quietly a hijab student who was being sought by Fatih, Fatih was stunned to see that, why this friend showed his existence
"Who the hell?"
"Sissies from my village..."
"You know him? Or does he know you?" The friend looked at him in astonishment as Fatih asked a series of questions and looked enthusiastic
"It's doang..." Fatih defended herself from feeling cornered by that gaze
"We don't know each other, and fate doesn't put us in a single class, among the hundreds of students who are here, even though one class will also find it difficult to get to know each other, especially the one who never hangs out like the others.."
Ok! Fatih was confused at this time, her best friend was really not distracting from Amra, once the schoolgirl was called by her friends. Consciously or not Fatih continues to pay attention to the friend carefully, he wants to guess what is in his mind at this time, no matter the headmaster who began to babble as a greeting for the guests
"I think I seem to fall in love with him, besides being beautiful he is also very simple, let alone his personality.... What do you think when I finish graduation, I shoot him? Or just treat him?"
"What?" Fatih was surprised not to be dumbfounded, but he held back the screeching sound that would come out of his mouth
"Hafidz? Are you crazy, right? Just graduated High School already want to treat people's children, success used to be new in action!" Da... His friend named Hafidz just looked down and sighed
"I'm so scared, I'm in love now, and I can't date her anymore! Try to shadow, where do you want a girl like her to date?" Fatih chuckled and patted Hafidz's shoulder soothingly, although she actually felt a slight pain in her chest, the simple girl also became her best friend's dream. Fatih sighed, not concerned for Hafidz, but concerned for himself. Because only now does he feel, if in fact he is interested in Amra, but all this time he ignored it.
"When I graduate, I'm going to Jakarta!" He muttered subconsciously, he was thinking, what would happen if it was true that this was love, this was the last day for Fatih, the last chance, at least not a special relationship, he said, they can know each other, right?
"What did you say?" Hafidz asked as he muttered earlier
"There's no..."
..........
The graduation procession was over, Fatih chose to go find a quiet place to treat her curiosity. Right in the park beside the school, when no one was there, Fatih hurriedly opened the paper in his pocket. A neat and beautiful writing emblazoned when he had broken it, could Fatih guess, this might be a poem.
...I must have sinned by doing this kind of thing...
...I shouldn't have done it...
...But this conscience was so arid that I didn't...
...Your screams when the ball you play cannot enter the goal always sound haunting...
...I don't know when I felt something so strange...
...Maybe you forgot...
...One day we met by accident...
...You spilled a drink on my hood...
...At that time you panicked and wanted to clean it with your hands while making an apology from your lips...
...Yet I stepped back and made you feel astonished, it was our first meeting!...
...I just left you without saying sorry...
...I just feel nervous, it's not unusual for me to be dealing with a man...
...I even ignored your call with the word "hey...
...And the next days, without me knowing why, I'd like to quietly watch you...
...Could it be that I have fallen for you?...
^^^-Amra-^^^
Fatih was stuck, the man in the writing was her. He remembered very well the written events and from then on he found out about Amra. Although only a little he got, indeed they were not in one class, but it was nice when he finally could greet Amra. Only that Amra's attitude had confused her. But now his confusion was answered, because this letter made Amra have to leave him. True said Hafidz, a girl like him will not be easy to date, even it is impossible. But what can a newly graduated high school student do to prove his love?
"She's a different girl...." Mumbled
