The Struggle of a Child
The cold attitude
We were silent and calm to do the task given by Miss Dona. None of the students spoke anymore. Everyone is busy doing tasks to be completed on time.
I who was uncomfortable was now getting serious about the task in front of me while glancing at Widia and Fikri who were silent forgetting the problems that approached the two of them.
I looked back at the book that was still open and rushed as quickly as possible to finish the task so that I could meet Septiani to apologize. To me, sorry, Septiani is so precious to me. Apologizing to him is a very precious treasure to me because in our friendship forgiveness is the body that strengthens this friendship until the end of life.
In that case, I must continue to pursue my dream of reuniting this friendship. So, I had to finish this task as soon as possible so that I wouldn't have a hard time later to meet Septiani if, for example, we suddenly came home suddenly.
This weak fingers also speed up my writing. After a long time I enjoyed the training given by Miss Dona finally, it did not feel finished.
"Widia, what number are you?" I asked to see a serious Widia.
"I'm still a long time away, Liyan," Widia replied as she continued to do her job.
"Oh, yeah!" I immediately turned my face a little disappointed to hear it. "I'm done." I look at my book with sadness.
"If you're done, just collect it first!" widia. "I'm still a long time. Anyway, you want to meet Septiani, don't you?" widia said asking me with her cold demeanor.
"Widia, I can't, if I have to be hostile to Septiani," I said firmly.
"Who is hostile, Liyan? You're this!" chirped Widia with indifference. "As if you're accusing me." Widia looked at me with an unhappy look.
"Then why did you see me a little bit?" many reassuring.
"God!" Widia cleared her throat pulling her lips smirked cynically. "Liyan, don't indiscriminately accuse me, yes!" Widia is attacking.
"I'm not accusing, Widia. I'm just asking, "I said innocently.
"Alright, Widia! Do not continue, later we fight," I said turning his gaze.
"Yes already. Who wants to continue, Liyan? 'And you asked first. Aye, right?!" Widia glanced at me while writing.
Widia's words just touched the recesses of my heart so much that it made me fall silent as if ashamed of myself. Sadness also envelops the presence without permission. He always approached my every step that was never happy.
The task that had been waiting to be delivered immediately to Ms. Dona was dancing now in front of the two clear netraku. Soon maybe I too, wake up and take my duty and deliver it.
Ms. Dona who looked busy with our exam preparation was a few days away with my arrival. "Mom it's my job" I said handing over the book.
"Are you ready, son?" asked Miss Dona to accept the book I gave her.
"Yes Mom. I'm ready" I replied, staring at Dona who was watching.
"Liyan," call Miss Dona.
"Yes, ma'am" I replied with courtesy and courtesy.
"Mother wants to know the names of your parents. Because I really need your biodata." Miss Dona glances at my book every once in a while.
"Yes, Mom. Tomorrow I'll ask my father, ma'am." I immediately replied to Dona's request.
"Good Mom." I immediately turned around leaving Dona's mom.
In the middle of the journey I was about to enter the bench suddenly Widia's cold face flashed before me without looking at me in the least.
Just because a slight mistake occurred between us makes this friendly relationship tenuous. This confusion veiled inward, breaking all the fraternity we had long built.
It is difficult to be happy, like the suffering that we have been through so much in vain now. Everything is broken no longer know when it will all improve. The desire to gather and laugh together again can only be held in a pseudo-dream.
Widia who had come forward to gather her duties now no longer greeted or asked about me in the slightest. I so softly dropped this body on the bench that was waiting.
"Liyan, why are you sad?" ask Fikri.
"Yes Liyan" Rasyd said. Why won't Widia rebuke you?" rasyd asked in surprise.
"Widia will, rebuke me." I answered them and hid what had happened from them.
"But... ." Rasyd then silently stared as if he rejected what I said.
"Already Rasyd. Maybe what Liyan said just now was true?! They didn't fight" he continued.
Now Rasyd nodded as a signal to accept what was said by Fikri. "Yes, you're right Fikri," continued Rasyd looking at me and Widia with a face still holding deep suspicion.
"Ficily!" yell Miss Dona. "Where's your assignment? Why isn't he here yet?" dona asked her to look at the books gathered on her desk.
"Yes, ma'am" replied Fikri.
"It's hard, ma'am, '" Rasyd joked.
"Rasyd all you want about what I give you is always difficult for you. I'm so confused, what else to tell you." Miss Dona nodded.
"But Widia looks so cold on Liyan," Fikri said as she walked out of her stool glancing at Widia.
I whispered to them unintentionally. I immediately saw Widia who was standing in front of the table Miss Dona fixedly looking at Widia after I heard her. I think what Fikri said was not wrong after Fikri saw Widia who was silent and cold to me, even with him.
