LEAFY LONGS FLOWERING SILENT
CHAPTER 14: SCHOOL CHAMELEON

I knew Elani when I went to school at Junior High 01 Kotabumi, there was no one class but Elani always went together to school which happened to be my house always passed by her. So a little bit I know very well how Elani faced the girl'. Oh.!, ask for mercy, really coward. Sometimes funny, sometimes annoying, sometimes sad, sometimes pity. There may be a dark history in his family's memory.

Elani, the only child of a fairly well-off parent. The child is quite handsome, tall, nose slightly pointed and enlarged, hair rather straight and a little curly, his face looks like a fringe arab.

His face is quite decent when juxtaposed with the lowest face level of the standard average. It's just that his brain is sometimes confused, want to be taken in the direction of his mind and words no one knows, no one knows, sometimes we talk to the west, he goes east and meets him when the sun is right on his head.

Lessons that use calculations: algebra, the science of measuring angles, and other lessons always ask for my help. If there's PR, Elani just copies it from me. I'm happy, wong knowledge that I get is not reduced, especially Elani often take me to the cafeteria: fried bananas with cold iced tea drinks for free I enjoy.

The story begins in the second grade of SMPN 1 Kotabumi, I with Elani do not sit in a bench with me, because I sit in the front row while he is the second row from the front to the left. On the same line on the right sits a girl named Ayu Yuniarti, calling her Ayu, a pretty girl and a long-haired white in second grade A. Ayu is also good so she can enter class A, some are loved because Ayu is a little bit of judes.

"Fakih, why yaaa…! if you look at Ayu, my heart is always dheg, dheg, dheg, especially if he looks, my heart feels stopped, I do not dare to look at him. Actually he made sure he was talking, but yaaa...! if it's close, I don't know why suddenly my stomach mules. Is that what you call love?!" Elani's long explanation makes Fakih's stomach also feel mules.

"El, the time of love alone must be related to me? Do you really have a crush on ma Ayu? do you dare shoot him?" Said Fakih and herannya even Elani nodding with what Fakih just said.

Between believe and not on his nod...!!!

At the break Fakih come to Ayu...!!!

"Well, Elani has a heavy crush on Elo, she wants to shoot elo, how is Yu?!" Ask Fakih honestly.

"May, please convey to Elani tomorrow yes Kih, but in front of the class, kayak elo expressed love ma Rosa, the second hour of rest, friends must witness!" Ayu answered the unexpected, between believing and not.

Does Ayu also have a crush on Elani secretly? Her taste? Did Ayu just want to humiliate Elani?

"El, I was talking to Ayu, if you want and will convey the feeling of elo ma him!" Fakih.

"Keep what should I do, Kih?!" Elani asked.

"It's up to El, I wonder if you want to convey feelings but don't know what he's going to say!" Fakih. "This is El, tomorrow elo bring fresh red roses yes, keep memorizing the sentence. "Well I love dead ama elo, will you be my girlfriend!" Fakih gave a piece of paper that only read the words. I'm sure Elani will memorize it, because it's so easy to remember.

The next day, when I left for school, I saw Elani's mouth wriggle while looking at the piece of paper I gave her, the left hand carrying a fresh red rose, somewhere to buy it. Carefully, he kept the flowers in his drawer.

The second break is still quite long. During the lesson, Elani began to feel unsettled with her sitting position. Approaching the first hour of rest, sweat has begun to wet his clothes, intermittently look at Ayu, look at the clock, open the drawer, clearly visible tension on his face.

Teng…! Teng…! Teng…!

The first sign of rest was heard, Elani stood up and half ran out towards the toilet.

"Fakih, my stomach suddenly mules, puffed up urinating", quickly I run to the toilet. When finished, the paper I memorize again, “I hope I love ama elo dead, will you be my girlfriend!" Elani explained.

I feel sorry also irritated, yes, such an easy word can not be memorized. There are still three more lessons before the second break, Indonesian, algebra and historical replay. I'm worried when the history replay, lest Elani write "Well I love dead ame elo, will you be my girlfriend!" It can be messy business.

Teng…! Teng…! Teng…!

There was the sound of the second hour of rest. I can't wait to witness how Elani declares her love for Ayu.

Classmates are moving forward. "Ayoo El, Ayoo El, Ayoo El!

The boisterous sound of friends encouraged Elani and it was clear that Elani's clothes were getting wet. Ayu calmly advanced forward, standing in front of the blackboard.

I whisper in her ear "El, let's go ahead, give her the red rose and tell her, "Well I love dead amelel, will you be my girlfriend!", remind me!" Fakih.

Elani takes a rose that some of the flowers have started to fall off, advances with hesitation, confronting Ayu.

"El, what do you want?" The heavy voice emphasized Ayu while staring at Elani's face with the glare of the owl's eyes that will scare the prey when the night has come to visit.

Elani lowered her head, her hands trembling with red roses, her pants wet. "Yes.my….!!! Aa...ku...!" Stuttered.

Ayu turned her body straight out, while the classroom atmosphere was again crowded and rowdy.

Elani's love is rejected by Ayu.

One week Elani did not go to school because her love was rejected by Ayu and since then, Elani added groggy when faced with a beautiful girl.

I really feel sorry for him.

As time went on, weeks changed my mind, Elani had already started to have the courage to approach Ayu. Apparently not. Elani is still like before, Ayu is just her imaginary love.

"Fakih, when Ayu goes along with Akmaluddin, he will know that I have a heavy crush!" Elani.

"El, forget Ayu, try elo nearin Dian Eliza, she has a crush on you. Dare not?" Dian Eliza is not as beautiful as Ayu and remains the same, Elani also does not have the courage to approach her.

"El, what happened to Dian Eliza?" Ask Fakih.

"Gue don't know Kih, every time I approach Dian, my stomach suddenly mules, want to pee, cold sweat out, I don't dare to say, Kih?!" Elani was honest.

***

Ivan gulped, venturing to greet him, "Hi...!"

Rosa only smiled and there was no intention to return Ivan's greeting. What later failed to move on, Rosa had already thrown away the name Ivan in her heart and mind. It was quite difficult to move on from Ivan at first, because he often wandered near Rosa, understandably still in one school. Ivan had been dating Rosa since the end of first grade and ended up in the second grade of First High School.

Soon Fakih approached Rosa after returning from the school library with a book that Rosa meant to bring.

Rosa accepted, "Thank you, Kih"

Fakih just smiled then sat back down.

"Ohh yes Kih, later if I have no news, don't think negative. You know for yourself that I studied long." Clearly Rosa.

"Yes. I know, don't worry pretty girl...!" Reply Fakih smiled.

Rosa smiled obliquely, moving from her seat about to go home, glancing at Ivan whose facial features revealed her dislike of seeing Rosa's treatment of Fakih and it made Rosa hold back her laughter.

Ivan clenched his hands, sighed then exhaled slowly, trying to contain the jealousy that began to overwhelm him.

"Gue went home first huh," said Rosa waving her hand at Fakih.

"Be careful if there's anything to tell me, Cha!." Reply Fakih made a sense of pleasure in Rosa's heart.

Rosa simply nodded withstanding her laughter, rushing to step foot towards the exit in a hurry.

Bruuk!

"Aww.hhh..!" Rosa felt her butt hit the floor hard, causing pain when she accidentally stepped on a slippery floor that was flooded with water.

"Why is there water here? What was the rain?" murmured Rosa slowly, trying to get up. But both of her eyes stopped in the hand that held both of her arms helping Rosa to wake up immediately. Without further ado he immediately turned his body back, "Thank you, Kih.." Rosa smiled when she saw the man who helped her, the one she loved.

"Why? Any ghosts? Ya Cha!," Ivan's voice sounded mocking.

"Yes. Elo his ghost," Rosa did not mash Ivan's taunts.

"Cha, don't bother!" Fakih calmed her lover.

Ivan sighed heavily looking at Rosa's back which began to drift away, while Fakih returned to the library to look for the subject matter of the task to be completed, for some reason he was not willing to see Rosa leave. What else during this six-month walk, every day seeing him without being able to invite him to talk. But want how else, in pursuit of any girl' it will be indifferent to him. And it's all Ivan's own fault, why try to deliberately choose another girl' and leave Rosa. It was the same as wanting to hurt her own heart. Changed guy' he said hardiness, but also have a feeling that can be felt right?

Ivan was not his name if he just stared at the departure of someone he wanted to go. He sped up his footsteps following Rosa and his gaze was blank, his mind drifting around twisting the memories of the past.

Ivan tried to ignore the daydream, venturing to touch Rosa's hand that was in plain sight.

Rosa stopped, "Please let go of her hand" Carefully, Ivan let go of her hand, "But don't run away, I just want to talk."

Rosa thought for a moment, later if Fakih misunderstood how? Caught wet chatting alone with Ivan, kept on breaking up. Ahh no. Fakih is not a selfish guy and has never had negative thoughts with Rosa. Finally Rosa agreed to Ivan's invitation and sat on the front bench of the library's laboratory room, so Fakih could still see the extent of his relationship with Ivan without having to be jealous because he was in a crowded location.

"How's elo?", asked Ivan, stalely.

"As you can see now." Reply Rosa as necessary.

Ivan breathed a sigh of relief because after admiring him in silence he was finally able to chat with Rosa again.

"Let's go on a walk with me?." Ivan.

Rosa looked at him with a difficult look to understand. What did he say? My boyfriend did not dare to walk.

"Gue can't" Rosa refused, and she could see a look of disappointment on Ivan's face.

"Why?" Ask Ivan.

"We're just friends and you know for yourself that I'm Fakih's girlfriend right now! So there's no need for me to clear it at length!" Clearly Rosa.

Ivan was silent, both corners of his lips lifted up, it turned out that Rosa was still the same as before. I don't want to go for a walk other than her boyfriend.

"You sure you don't want to?." woo Ivan.

"You don't" Rosa refused to throw her face away.

"Well, don't you want to?!" Ivan reassured Rosa's answer.

Rosa silently did not answer, She heard a sigh from the man who was in front of her.

"Actually my goal is to chat with elo just want to.." Ivan paused his words for a moment, making Rosa raise her eyebrows. "Solicit ma'af." Ivan again.

"Ma'af? For what?," asked Rosa who increasingly did not understand.

"Yes. My mistake was first!" Ivan.

Is that what you call a mistake? Disconnect not clear? Of course, according to Rosa, it was a mistake. Moreover, the name of the heart is not a public place that can be free to go in and out at any time. Rosa doesn't care who Ivan is, only she doesn't like his ways. If the intention is earnest, whatever the situation is still maintained do not break up.

And now this crazy Ivan is asking for ma'af again? Looks like there's a shrimp behind the rock. He doesn't want to be trapped. Okay fixs, pretend you don't know, just follow the game.

"Gue wants to go home," Rosa got up from her seat about to move. Ivan managed to stop him.

"I answered first" said Ivan.

Rosa breathed a heavy sigh and had difficulty forgetting the past, but Ivan seemed to deliberately make Rosa remember Him.

"Gue should be home soon. It was almost afternoon," Rosa broke through to Ivan's side, stepping away from him who was still standing at the back.

"How could you forget me so easily." shouted Ivan, successfully making Rosa stop. "Gue knows you hate me so much, but... What's wrong if I miss elo!?." the sentence instantly spontaneously slid through Ivan's mouth.

"What does elo mean?" Rosa is still in her position. Ivan was silent, suddenly confused about what to say. "We're just friends now, nothing more. So don't act out of bounds!. Let me go home now." Continue Rosa.

"But...!" Ivan was silent.

"Stop..!!!, the past is the past. And now I won't be fooled by elo talk!!" Reply Rosa was a little upset.

Rosa was silent for a moment.

Trying to adjust his breath so as not to get angry exploding. Faintly heard the sound of footsteps of the person behind him starting to approach. Rosa did not dare to turn her head, she bit her lower lip firmly holding back her tears from spilling. Rosa dampened her emotions then clenched her hands. Brave to turn her head, "remember!!, Fakih is elo's friend. Don't try to betray it !" Reply Rosa rough.

Ivan was silent, with difficulty gulping down his saliva looking at Rosa who was looking at him with a deadly gaze. Especially when Rosa is walking closer to him, now their faces are only a few inches border.

"Elo still has feelings for me right?" Ask Rosa suddenly.

Ivan could only nod because his mouth suddenly choked. Inexplicably Ivan sensed the moment Rosa turned into a starving tiger that wanted to pounce on him alive.

Ivan again could only look at Rosa's departure. Seeing the look on his face that suddenly changed like this, Ivan concluded that Rosa had been very angry with him all along. Considering Rosa it is a figure of a girl' who is rarely angry.

He just doesn't want Rosa to fall into another guy' and hurt him, just that he used to play tricks on her. And now his arrival wants to correct his mistake. Because according to him, the one who does is the one responsible.

Ivan brushed his hair back with both hands, his right foot moving quickly kicking the pole next to him.

"I was a coward!!" Ivan then said.

"Hey, you want to make our school collapse?" fakih shouted, who stood a little far behind him, just came out of the library because he heard the sound of the vibration of Ivan who he thought was rampaging.

Ivan did not comment on Fakih's words, then just left him.

"What's the son of? Positive thinking, maybe he's in a trance" Fakih said alone.

***

"Ehh, Cha. Elo had another greeting from Ari," said Nelly as she approached Rosa and sat down next to her.

Rosa just kept quiet, then nodded.

"There's no such salutation?" rosa's habits, always never the response will Nelly who is the target of Ari's question.

"Yes greetings back" replied Rosa lazily.

"Mending to Ari Cha. My life is not calm in the title of a hearty greeting" said Nelly.

"Turn back Ivan aja Cha!" Suddenly Nur chimed in.

"Stop!!, have you forgotten that I have a boyfriend? I keep Fakih. If Ivan, I had forgotten about him and Ari's problem, he had to deal with it himself.

***

Rosa tidied up her books lying on the classroom bench to put them in a bag, then walked out of class with Nelly to the library, the kids went to the park and the cafeteria.

Not yet at the library, his hand was forcefully pulled by someone from behind. Rosa screamed Nelly, but instead Nelly walked straight ahead. Maybe Nelly's ear needs to be checked by a doctor.

Rosa was dragged towards the classroom, her hands in a strong grip.

"What do you want?", cried Rosa.

Ari approaches, "Elo's really Fakih's boyfriend?"

Rosa breathed a heavy sigh. My son said he didn't believe. "Yes. So don't bother me anymore" replied Rosa.

"Gue likes elo, Cha. Please break up Fakih yes", Pinta Ari.

"Can't!!!", cried Rosa while trying to release Ari's hand. But instead Ari further strengthened his grip.

Rosa grimaced with pain.

"Come, Cha. Well then.... Are you the one who mutusin himself or am I the one who mutusin?" Threatening Ari.

Rosa glared at his eyes, "What heart do you think my heart is? Gonta change people at will, if Fakih ya Fakih, so take this grip off!!!" Jerky Rosa strong.

"Fakih is what elo likes, more handsome I am" said Ari arrogant.

"But I am not at all interested in that elo handsome!!!, looking handsome like a girl, chameleon!!", Rosa clutched her grip then rushed away from Ari.

But Ari held him back, "Please, Cha. I like elo before, you don't pity me?" Ari Pinta.

Rosa turned her body, looking intently at Ari, "And you don't pity me if I'm gonna change a guy'?" Rosa's words were fierce.

Ari was silent, thinking of the words to reply to Rosa, but she had already left, again Niko managed to block her. "Gue will continue to chase after elo!" Say Ari again.

Rosa breathed a heavy sigh, the child asked in her sleding. "Cewe's prettier than I'm here a lot right? So, you can step aside now?" Jerky Rosa.

"Unfortunately I can't!" Answer Ari.

Rosa thought for a second, "Cewe' is sexy here a lot right? So Ari please step aside now!!!" Jerky Rosa.

"I can't!" Ari insists.

Rosa was silent for a moment, thinking of the words to drive Ari away.

From behind Ari, a man's hand came and Ari fell on the floor, trying to stand up and then ran after and grabbed Rosa's hand again.

Rosa rebelled, but Ari dragged her along. Ari's hand on the tepis of the man' and Ari was all her might to catch Rosa's hand falling forward.

"Woiiii, if the new boyfriend does not blur!!!", cried Ari from a distance and has not risen from the fall.

They ignored Ari's screams, ran across some passersby, making all pairs of eyes look at him in wonder and arrived at them in the cafeteria.

" elo is okay Cha?", asked Fakih while relaxing.

"Gue is okay" replied Rosa.

"Other times if you're in people again, yell that fast, or tell me who told you to call me, I'll definitely come". Fakih.

"Yes. Thank you, Kih" replied Rosa.

"For what?" Ask Fakih.

"Save me from Ari just now?!" Answer Rosa.

Fakih smiled, "It's my duty as Elo Cha's girlfriend, to look after you!" Fakih.

Fakih simply replied with a smile.

They were silent, busy with their respective busyness, actually Rosa wanted to ask something to Fakih, but was afraid that Fakih would ignore it. Butno... Fakih's not that kind of guy.

Rosa ventured to ask, "Emm...Hush!" Rosa Say.

Fakih looked over, "Why?"

"Emmm... Elo don't regret having a boyfriend like me?" said Rosa hoping Fakih didn't ignore her.

Fakih frowned, "What's wrong?"

"Gue was afraid that you might regret Kih after knowing me!" rosa Reply.

Fakih smiled, "Later if it's time, you know yourself", added Fakih.

Rosa was silent for a moment. Mean what?

***

Early in the morning Rosa was ready to go to school, wearing a pink dress with a book in her hand, let's like a smart child, eehh Rosa is smart.

Rosa further accelerated her footsteps, her feelings began to feel bad, afraid of two guys' crazy cadas coming, who else if not Ivan and Ari.

A man's holding his hand from behind, Rosa stopped her steps, the man walked in front of her. Then she put on her smile.

"Ivan again Ivan again, Move !! I want to go to class" Rosa said.

"There are no classes today, the teacher at the meeting!" Ivan.

"Trus why?" Reply Rosa.

"Gue wants to talk to you, Cha", Ivan asked.

"Malessss, ngirit voice" answered Rosa Ketus.

"That's a yes, it's still a kayaking machine!" Reply Ivan.

Rosa simply kept silent the feeling of laziness present in Rosa's heart responding to this half-crazy person before her.

Come another guy' from behind holding Rosa's hand, "Yuk get into class!"

Really, 2 crazy people at the gathering, ohh my God...!!!

Ivan shook Ari's hand, "No holding" said Ivan.

Ari approached Ivan, "Oh... Van ELO!. Where are you going now?" Reply Ari.

Ivan glared at his eyes, "Why did Ri?!" Ivan.

"Ehhh just no need to nyolot that!!!", cried Ari, until everyone looked at him.

"Who's nyolot huh???", shouted Ivan did not lose out loud.

Ari pushed Ivan, "That's elo... Understand!" Ari.

Ivan looked at him sharply, "Not to make a storm" he replied.

"Ehh elo was the first storm" replied Ari.

"You can't be !!!", cried Rosa glared her eyes and left them.

Ivan chases after her, followed by Ari from behind.

"Cha...! wait, I just want to talk to you for a minute!" Shouted Ivan.

Rosa stopped, "What else?"

Ivan approached, "Emm I asked ma'af"

"I'm going to have a chat with Rosa!", Ari.

"Gue has nothing to do with elo, so hope you can go?" said Ivan in a low tone.

"Can't" replied Ari.

"Don't provoke people's emotions" Ivan replied.

Ari patted Ivan on the shoulder, "Come on, man. It used to be a champ elo!"

Ivan clenched his hands, his eyes bulging.

Ari glared back, "What? Want nonjok?" Her speech.

Not long after Fakih came to break them up, Ivan and Ari felt bad about Fakih's presence escaping one by one. Rosa, who saw Fakih's arrival, rushed to the classroom.
