LEAFY LONGS FLOWERING SILENT
CHAPTER 20: JUST HOPE

I thought but I didn't expect much...!

You made my time with the wishful thinking of you...!

***

Nur is still paying attention to the man' who has been on his mind, the man' who makes him upset every night and also the man' who makes him die of style when passing by.

“Bagas again Nur?” Asked someone in Nur's ear and he simply nodded without taking a look.

“Bagas…! until when?” Ask that guy again.

Nur just shook his head and still did not move his gaze.

“No bosen?” Ask that guy again.

“Ah Bambang noisy ahhh…. Thereaaa!” expel Nur.

“Okay ya gitu lo same me...” Reply Bambang belagak go.

“The answer is...!” nur.

“Hehehe sorry deh sorry..” said Bambang. “to class yuk?” continued.

“Hmm come on..” reply Nur lethargic.

Bambang walked samb embracing Nur to the classroom.

***

Nur sat at the canteen table stirring up the drinks in front of him. Thinking Bagas. Yes, Bagas who has officially dated Ayu.

"Stupid lo Nur. Oh stupid!!! Why do you think Bagas is clearly much different from you. He is like the heavens and the oil! Forget him, forget him." Batin Nur's.

“DORRR!” Bambang surprised Nur.

Nur was not surprised at all. “Who are you?” Ask flat.

“Lo why the hell? Every time I noticed again daydreaming continue” reply Bambang.

“Nggak tau” reply Nur brief.

“Nur kanihh... We are friends right?” sahut Bambang again.

“Iya we're friends.” Nur Balas.

“Keep why you never want to tell me the same story?” ask Bambang later.

“Yes because there is nothing I want to tell you.” Reply Nur.

“Iya up.” Bambang.

Silent…

“Bang?” call Nur.

“Ya?” bambang Balas.

“Why love likes dateng in the wrong person huh?” Ask Nur.

“The love is mysterious. But I'm sure love is never wrong.” Reply Bambang.

“But why do I love Bagas? The same people I could never reach. People I can only look forward to from far away.” Isak Nur's.

“Nur... why cry?” bambang looked at Nur. Removing airmatanya.

“So mate, where will not go kok.” Reply Bambang smile.

“Never will ever mate kok.” Nur Sahut.

“Go home?” bambang Balas.

“Yuk..” Nur Sahut.

***

“Nur tuh Bagas..” said Bambang while pointing Bagas with his friends.

“Trus?” ask Nur.

“So when will you be the earth and he be the sky? Come there.” Answer Bambang.

“Gue not hurt..” reply Nur.

“Nur... ga pede why? Lo beautiful gini kok.” said Bambang reassuring.

“But..” Nur looks doubtful.

“There..” Bambang encouraged Nur who still looked doubtful to walk slowly and occasionally turned to Bambang.

***

God, does a woman like me not deserve a man? Am I destined to be alone? Do I have to keep drowning in this sea of restlessness God? Nur was still in his daydream staring at the sky. The afternoon sky with orange sunlight that occasionally greeted him.

BYURR...!!!

Puddles of water had splashed onto Nur's clothes. Now Nur's clothes were originally white to brown. Motorcycles that make Nur's clothes change color also stop, “No point you daydream on the roadside abis raining-gini! Not my fault.” Said Bagas and left.

Nur walked gontai towards his house in makeshift clothes. No matter what people looked at him with disdain or whatever, he obviously wanted to get home quickly! Quickly clean everything! Clean clothes and also his heart which today has been made twice by Bagas! Stupid Arghhhh!

***

“Then I have good news!” Bambang surprised Nur.

“Hm..” reply Nur lazy.

“Ih seriously!!” bambang said again.

“Iya I know. Yes continue how are you?” ask Nur.

“There is a famous beauty salon just opened a branch in my house.” Bambang.

“Continue? Do you want me to work there? Heeiii lo aja kali.” Nur cut Bambang's talk.

“Ih elo yes! That's not. Yes, if you vermak your appearance, Bagas will like. How?” Bambang. There is a little unreasonable in Bambang's heart certainly but is not love actually to see the person he loves happy?

"Gue why? My heart why is rich not sincerely make fools Nur sama Bagas?" Inner Bambang.

“Lo lower me Bang?!” Nur got up from his seat and left.

“Eehh not Nur…. Nur waituu” shouted Bambang, but in vain, Nur had gone far.

***

Bambang searched everywhere for Nur but did not find the slightest trace of Nur's nose. Where is the child?! Uh wait wait…. That's her!

DORR...!!!

“Always come for ngagetin?” Tanya Nur flat.

“Not surprised?” Ask Bambang back.

“Ngak dah usual” reply Nur flat.

“Kok cuek?” Ask Bambang.

"Au ah dark" Nur replied.

“Sorry yes.” Bambang.

“For?” ask Nur.

“Kalo my words earlier about salon nyakitin liver lo.” said Bambang.

“Nothing!” nur.

“But really, if you want to fix everything, I'm sure Bagas wants to be lo.” Bambang smiled wryly.

Nur turned his head cynically to Bambang, threw away his face and was about to stand up and leave. However, his hand was held by Bambang.

“Where are you?” Ask Bambang.

“Lepas” said Nur.

“No mau” said Bambang.

“Gue says freelance!” nur Bentak.

“Not going!” Bambang increasingly hard to hold the hand Nur.

“Lo hurts me!!” gubris hands Nur then run away from Bambang.

“GUE THIS IS ALL BECAUSE I LOVE NUR SAMA LO! I WANT YOU TO BE LIKE THEM, I WANT THEM TO KNOW THAT YOU ARE NOT AS BAD AS THEY THINK. NO OTHER MEANING! BUT IF I MEAN THIS MAKES YOU SICK, SORRY. I'M SORRY! I LOVE NUR SAMA LO. MORE THAN FRIENDS!!!” Bambang shouted as loud as he tight to Nur who had been silent since earlier.

Bambang said what?! Back to expressing his feelings?!

Nur...! Bambang does not exist.

***

Silently Nur tried to go to the salon near Bambang's house to change everything!

***

The next day at school, Monday, the day most hated by all the students! How not, hence we have to re-enter the school!!!

Nur walked casually to class and all the men'-cowo' saw him fascinated, let alone the creature entitled cow', girl' was also dumbstruck. Envious of times?

Down the corridor, to the classroom, sitting next to Bambang.

“Hai Bang..!” sapa Nur when he found Bambang reading comics.

“Hai Nur..!” reply Bambang without looking at it one bit.

“Ehmm..” Nur gives code. Bambang is still silent with his comic.

“Ehmmm...” gets harder and harder to code to Bambang but he remains silent.

“EHHMMM!!” getting louder.

“Berisik..” Bambang reflex turned because Nur rowdy once. “Nuuuuur...???” Bambang gawked and immediately stood up.

“Hehehe... thanks ya Bang... thanks lo!” nur hugged Bambang.

“Eeehhh yes same Nur.. lo pretty” said Bambang shyly.

“Emang..!” balas Nur's.

“Hmm Nur, I want.. I want..” Bambang nervous.

“You what?” cut Nur.

“Gue wants...” Bambang's talk is truncated Nur again.

“Oh yes Bang... I want to meet Bagas, I want to invite him to make my prom partner.. daah!” nur said happy and then went to class.

“Gue want.... lo be my prom couple Nur...” Bambang said then continued reading the comic.

***

"Surely Bagas will like me. Yeah I'm pretty!" Batin Nur on the way to class. “Bagas..” call Nur.

Bagas was speechless, turning his head “Nuuuuur..?”

Nur was silent while looking down embarrassed. Bagas.

“Nur.. lo beautiful really” said Bagas while stroking Nur's hair.

"What's? How to brush my hair? It's not like I imagined! It turns out that this is all naklukkin Bagas if I'm beautiful!!!" Thought Nur was watching in space.

“Nur.. helooww!!” Bagas shook his hand in front of Nur's face.

“Eh no Gas...! I'd like to say, if you want to be…. My prom couple?” Tanya Nur was nervous.

“Aduh... how yaa... later I will say again deh Nur.” said Bagas.

“Gue to class first yes Gas. Bye” replies to Nur and then returns to class.

***

“Bang...!!! I've taken Bagas to prom.” Nur said in class.

“Terus?” Ask Bambang.

“But he hasn't answered want or price.!” balas Nur's.

“Ya...! you are already gini, surely he wants to.!” bambang said encouraging Nur.

“Thanks yes Bang..!” Nur turned towards Bambang and Bambang turned his head back and winked.

***

Nur was peeking from behind his locker, it was clear Bagas was with his gang. Wish I could join them..wait wait wait!! Who's that girl?

Nur put up his ears, bring them closer to sound clear.

DEGGS!!!

Enough!!! Nur came out from behind the locker that had become his hiding place.

“What do you mean have made an appointment to prom with Ayu? What do you mean Gas?! Hahh!!” Nur emotion.

“Lo what the hell is it?! I never said anything like Lo!” reply Bagas.

“You mean you'll tell me what? That's gonna let us get closer, right? Keep calling me, right? Want to be my prom partner, right Gas?! Yes kann?! But why..” Nur's talk was cut.

“HAH?! Lv? Want to be a prom girl' rich couple lo? Don't have a dream!! Be there.!” Cibir Bagas's.

“Gue has changed my appearance just for lo Gas, make lo!” nur Bentak.

“Gue never told you, right? I never paid you, did I? It's just the kegeeran! Lo pede. My girl' is much prettier want you to change rich anywhere!” bagas' words tested Nur's heart and tore his heart out.

“Evitable lo Gas!” nur said while wiping away her tears and leaving.

***

I'M NIESEL!!!! His screams are getting louder

“Why lo?” Ask Bambang.

“Eh Bambang's.. It's okay..!” Nur wiped his tears.

“No need to bo'ong” Bambang view through the deepest recesses of Nur's heart.

Nur suddenly hugged Bambang. “Gue niesel Bang, wait Bagas sampe seginya. I change my appearance only for rich guys he.” Nur said in Bambang's embrace and he took off Nur's embrace.

“Hey. I told you to change everything to Bagas, but you know. With the rich self lo gini, certainly not just Bagas who like the same lo! Many Nur. Much!!”

“ Nur was silent.

“Gue is one of them…! You know that, right!” bambang continued.

Nur was shocked and looked at Bambang. “El..el..elo?”

Bambang nodded. “Iya I like lo and yesterday until now has not changed Nur!” bambang continued.

“But Bang...” said Nur.

“Gue know you will not like me.” reply Bambang.

"Lo's wrong! I like you too. I loved it for a long time! But maybe it's because I was thinking too much about our friendship, so I shut it all down." Batin Nur's.

“Nur..!” bambang said again.

“Ehh what Bang?” balas Nur's.

Silence…!!!

“Lo..lo want to be my prom partner?” Tanya Nur hesitated.

Bambang reflex turned. “hah? But Nur..”

“Oh I know.. you already have a prom couple huh? Sorry about that.” Nur.

“Not that. I don't want to be prom night lo!” Bambang.

“Because you already have a partner right?” Nur is still clumsy.

“Lo still knows too. I have a prom couple! But I don't want to be prom lo!” Bambang kind of snapped.

Nur turned “Kalo lo gamau so my partner, yes already. Don't you need to jerk! I don't like being yelled at!” Nur got up and ran away from Bambang.

“GUE DON'T WANT TO BE JUST A COUPLE PROM NIGHT LO NUR! I WANT HER TO BE NOT JUST MY PROM COUPLE, BUT LO IS ALSO MY LIFE PARTNER! I LOVE THE SAME LO.?!” yell Bambang.
