THE CHARM OF THE VILLAGE GIRL
(FEGG) ~ Lovely Fall in Love

From the headmaster's room, Galang and Luri look out together while carrying a thick file in each hand. A big smile appears to adorn the lips of both because in two days they will soon leave for London.

"Luri, you have no show tonight?" ask Galang. His heart was very happy because soon he and Luri would spend more time together.

"Em, I don't know, Lang. Because later I plan to watch Nania train after all the business at school is done" replied Luri. "Our time together wasn't much anymore, Lang. So while I had the chance I wanted to spend time with Nania and with my other family. You know for yourself, don't you think we're gonna stay four years in London?"

He took a deep breath and then nodded. Iri once every time she heard Luri talk about the warmth in her family. Galang felt alone because both his parents were relaxed even though he knew that in two days he would leave Shanghai. Actually Galang also really wanted to spend time with his family, but what would be said. My mom and dad are too busy with their jobs.

"I know what you're thinking, Lang," said Luri in response to the silence in Galang. "Don't worry, you're not alone. There is still me and the others who will support you. You have to keep thinking positively because it will greatly affect your focus when we go to college. It's okay if now your Mom and Dad don't care. Just prove to them that you are an independent child. You're not a whiny, Galang."

"Bhhh ... Buri-luri. Why is it so hard to follow your advice?" said Galang while throwing a deep breath. " Oh yeah, I don't want to get dizzy anymore. Let's just say that my Dad and my mom would rather have their jobs than the happiness of their own children. I will try to keep believing that someday they will be aware and care about me. Isn't that right?"

Luri smiled then nodded her head. He then patted Galang on the shoulder, giving him the strength to live out his family's cold story.

"Oh yeah, Lang. If you don't have a show after you get home from school, how about we go watch Nania compete? Yes count to make memories before we part with the bad girl," said Luri invites Galang to seek entertainment.

"Wahhh, great idea. Alright, later I will come with you to watch Nania," said Galang with the spirit of four and five.

"Watching Nania? I'm coming!"

Galang and Luri immediately looked back when they heard Jovan's screams. They then both shook their heads looking at Jovan who came while carrying a lot of snacks in his hands.

"I'm coming. I also want to watch my girl" said Jovan, staring in turn at Luri and Galang.

"Your girl?" ledek Galang's. He then took a pack of snacks from Jovan's hand. "If you dare try to call Nania like that, Jo. I'll pay a fortune if you can do it."

Jovan. As fast as lightning he hid all the snacks he carried behind his back when Galang wanted to take them back. Really yes this one child, just want to be good.

"I don't need money from you just to do something that easy, Lang," Jovan said. "Before I mentioned in front of you, I had already mentioned it before Nania. Do you know how she responded when I called her my girl?"

Galang and Luri compactly shook their heads. But they were very sure that Jovan must have received something violent because of his actions. Biasa, Nania is a bar-bar.

"He punched my stomach and arm. Hehehehe," continued Jovan while chuckling happily.

"You should be angry, not laughing, Jovan. Oh, my God, you are. Love really makes people blind everything yes," said Luri was surprised by the attitude shown by Jovan.

"Well, how else, Luri. His name is also in love. As sick as Nania treats me, I'll still love it. Strange indeed, but that's the beauty of falling in love" said Jovan without feeling the slightest shame.

"Yes beautiful. But honey, Nania doesn't understand that you like her. Ahhaha!" sindir Galang then laughed out loud.

"Who are you bringing this many snacks for, Jo?" ask Luri curious.

"Oh, of course for Nania, Luri. Who else could make me like this besides your sister?" jovan answered proudly.

"God. So Nania asked you to buy all these snacks?" startled Luri.

Oh my goodness, Nania. How many times do you have to remind yourself not to ask anyone. Especially in men. You too, Jovan. Why do you want to obey my sister's wishes. Jesus, luri complained in her heart.

Galang stared in astonishment at Jovan who casually agreed with Luri's question. He thought that students as smart as Jovan would be completely subdued by the charm of a new village girl as long as corn. But Galang secretly became envious because Jovan was able to show his feelings openly. It doesn't seem like one still has to wait for an opportunity to come. Haihh, it feels like Galang is determined to re-express his feelings for Luri. But he did not dare, Galang was afraid of being rejected again like that time.

"Tadi Nania said she was in need of a lot of energy. Then I propose to buy these snacks. So now I look like a walking minimarket. All this for your sister, Luri. I'm cool, right?" jovan asked with a smile displaying a row of clean white teeth.

"Hmmm, Jo-Jo. Next time please don't do this again. I feel bad because Nania is impressed to be using you" replied Luri slowly.

"Weee, just relax. It was my idea, not Nania who asked for it first. So you don't feel bad about me, Luri. I don't mind doing this at all because it feels really good" Jovan said casually. "Oh, what did you guys want to watch? What will Nania do?"

"Ohh, that. I invited Galang to watch Nania train this afternoon. Last time I left school Nania told me that there will be a strength test between the groups because soon there will be a martial arts match. And it just so happens that Nania was chosen as the representative of our school. That's why I invite Galang to watch, as well as encouraging him," Luri replied proudly as she recounted the success of Nania who was chosen as a representative of her group. Although not necessarily winning, for Luri this is still very proud. He was already quite satisfied with Nania's achievement now.

Galang and Jovan's mouths opened wide knowing that Nania would be the representative of the martial arts class. After that they threw eyes at each other before finally grimacing..

"Jo, it looks like you also have to enter martial arts class from now on in order to be able to compensate for Nania's strength later. Otherwise, I guarantee you will be battered every day. Believe that!" said Galang full of warning tone.

"Nania can't be that cruel making me his fist, Lang. You don't talk about it no-no!" bela Jovan while gulping. Jovan did not accept Galang thinking that way about Nania, but he himself felt afraid. Afraid that Galang's words would come true.

"Haishhh, it's up to you. I just remember as a friend. But remember, Jo. If later Nania really makes you as her fist samsak, you can't complain to me. I don't want to see your tears."

"Ck, why are you so evil, Galang. As a friend you should have put up a body to defend me. How the hell!" jovan's protest was upset.

"When I deal with Nania, I raise my hand, Jo. You're gonna take care of it yourself 'cause I don't want to get battered in his hands. Huh!" sahut Galang indifferent.

Luri could only sigh as her sister's barbarity made these two friends become frightened. Galang and Jovan are not wrong, and Luri understands why the two are acting this way. Luri was very aware that her sister was indeed too fierce and naughty. So yeah, it's better that Luri shut up not defending.

Hopefully, Nania's attitude can change over time. I fear that no man will dare to approach her later, Luri said in her heart.
