Still You's

Still You's
Gossip at school.


Today is Monday, an upsetting day for most students. Habil was getting ready to go to school, wearing his white uniform in his white hoody coat.


His smile was engraved as he recalled the moment he had with Yulia last night. Her hand moved to comb her hair, then to scramble it again. "Better at random," he chirped, then smiled with satisfaction.


"Your friend whose name is Yulia ... don't you play here anymore?"


The question that Ani had just asked made Habil a little surprised, then turned to the door where Ani was standing there.


"Delay the habit, huh! Knock on the door first cake, Bun!" His grunts stroked his chest.


"Since when should a mother knock on the door to the child's room?" Ani replied and then chuckled.


Habil walked over, "according to Bun's psychology, 'the good mother is the mother who knocks on the door before entering her son's room'. Mother, why?"


Ani looked at Habil who was now in front of her, then ruffled his waist. "So, you indirectly say that Mother is not a good mother, so?"


Habil quickly scowled, shook his head while cupping the two cheeks Ani was anxious. "Habil never said that, but Mother herself said that!" Say it, then laugh.


Ani was silent, staring at the horror towards Habil who was laughing because of his actions. The horror gaze of the bunch was able to make him speechless, then keep his hands away from his round cheeks.


One sec.


Two seconds.


Three seconds.


Ani pinched Habil's stomach slowly, making the owner reflex away because of amused. "Mother not enter your room without permission, yes! Mommy's just in the doorway, it's your fault why don't you close the door!" he said he defended himself, then turned around intending to leave.


"Don't forget to bring Yulia here, Mother miss!" Next, then passed.


Habil looked at Ani's back, then smiled. "Bau-bau dapet restu nih from Mommy!"

Once again Habil glanced at his motor rearview, as if he were admiring his own face. Ani smiled looking at him, then said. "Great daughter Mother!"


"When you used to be pregnant, Mommy did not like Manu Rios. Eh, even his son was exactly him," he said, laughing softly.


"The weird mother, the handsome guy like her is not in the demenin, the kayak guy Bambang even in like-in!"


"Whose emblem?"


"Oh yes the wrong server, Bambang 'his father was Temen Habil," he replied with a laugh, making Ani shake his head.


"Basic," he chirped. "Yes, go there! Don't forget to bring her Yulia here!"


Habil just muttered, then kissed his mother's hand, then her cheek. "Habil's leaving, Bun!"


Ani nodded with a smile, making her dimples slightly visible.


"Don't go home before you bring Yulia!" His words raised his voice slightly, making Habil again turn his head, then gave a thumbs up towards Ani while smiling.


Highways are getting congested due to more and more vehicles. School hours, work and other activities have just started this week.


Habil was focusing on riding his motorcycle with a bag that he put on both his shoulders. Looks perfect, making anyone girl who sees it will be stunned because of the focus face.


The green light that turned yellow also made Habil increase the speed of his motorbike, ignoring the safety of himself and others.


Just a few seconds before Habil passed the red light, it turned red. Reflex, Habil stepped on and pulled his brakes deep, with his breath seemingly stopped.


Ciitt.


His bike stopped just before the zebra line crossed in front of him. He took a deep breath, then threw it away violently. "It's good" he said, grateful.


"You're saying the lights are yellow, meaning less speed, not faster!" Grumpily a middle-aged man who had just stopped beside him. The man in a t-shirt, with a man in front of him wearing a jacket that reads 'online object'.


The man stared in annoyance. Because, the ojek he was riding was almost disgusted because of the actions of Habil who suddenly stopped.


Habil only turned a glance, then threw away his gaze staring at the light that would turn green in a few seconds.


His face was flat, making a middle-aged man curse inwardly.


Three, three,


Two, two,


One.


A few minutes later, Habil arrived in front of Yulia's house. He went down, walked to the main door, and knocked.


Tok.


"Assynnya!"


Tok to tok.


"Yulio ... Aunt ...!"


There was no answer, even after Habil was waiting for him. Habil saw his watch which now shows at 06.40 WIB.


"Well, uh, you're on your way out, huh?" His monologue. He ruffled his waist, with eyes staring at the door in front of him, hoping that it would suddenly open.


"Auntie ... Julia ... Habil's leaving, huh?" Monologue, again.


"Yes, careful!" He answered himself in a made-up tone, making himself laugh at his own actions.

"You know the case of a student falling from a building that wasn't finished three years ago?"


"Yes, crazy. Turns out it wasn't a fall, but a push!"


"And you know who's pushing?"


"Psychopath!" Compact sounds.


Habil paused for a moment, his ears focused on listening. No wonder if something spread quickly because the students are active in gossiping.


Habil continued his steps, with his face flat. His steps were firm, his gaze straight with both his hands in his pants pocket. I don't think he cares at all about what is being said.


"Si Julia!"


His steps again stopped when he heard the name of his target girl called. Habil turned his head towards where a group of schoolgirls were nearby. "Yulia why?" Ask.


The short-haired student with the height of Habil's shoulder turned his head. "Huh?"


"So you called her Yulia!"


For a moment, the students looked at each other, then looked back at Habil. "Lo don't know?"


Habil shook his head indifferently.


"Alumni here, her brother Yulia was killed by a generation," said one of the long-haired students.


"Why do you take Yulia with you?"


"Who knows he's the son of a murderer! Yeah, guys?"


Habil snorted when he saw the students nod in agreement, then clenched his hands firmly while staring at the students in front of him. "Mending teaches your brain how to value people from attitudes, not heredity!" he said while pointing at the students using his chin, then passed.


For a moment, Habil looked indifferent. He kept walking, ignoring the people gossiping around him.


"Don't Yulia's men, she's afraid she's saiko too!"


"Yes!"


"Eh, is that really true?"


"Who's up? her real brother?"


"Battery, Cuy! But it's only three years from him."


Her ears are hot and stuffy. Habil sped up his pace and faster when he saw Adi who was walking not far in front of him.


"Follow the cave first!" His request after having caught up with Adi and grabbed his hand, then led him away from the corridor filled with gossip.


🦋🦋


"Can you clear the same cave?"


"About?"


"Yulia and her tantenya!" He said, then looked at his watch. "Lo has ten minutes to clear it, before the bell comes in!"
