The Romance of Earth and Blue

The Romance of Earth and Blue
PART 21 – Milky, What's Up?


After school I waited for Blue in front of my class because he still had to picket. But it lasted only a moment. It may have taken me 5 minutes until the man approached me.


“Udah?” my many.


He nodded. “Yuk to library,” take him.


I immediately got up from my seat and hurriedly equalized my steps with her. Until the moment the scream appeared.


“Blue! Helpin!” serang Ajeng who is the class leader there. The face of the red goose. He looked angry while holding the handle of the broom.


“Kan. Replace it,” said Blue flat.


I can tell when Ajeng who just looked at Blue was upset and then turned back into the classroom. “Emm is it okay? If you want a picket is okay, I wait,” said I feel bad for Ajeng.


“Udah, no need to be taken care of. My job is to do.”


I finally gave up. We arrived at a library that was not too crowded, probably because it was already home from school.


We took a seat at the very end because I really like looking out this big window. The library is on the 2nd floor so I can look towards the field. Usually in the second break I will sit here alone to see Blue who is playing ball.


The man was in front of me right now.he seemed to seriously read the improvements I gave to his task. “Oh so that's how. I understand,” he said.


“Iyaa. Rewrite akaajaa.”


Blue according. He was busy fixing his job. To fill the time, I took the time to work on the PR I just got a few hours ago.


A while passed until I finished doing my PR pr. I packed my things and closed the package book. “Udah? Home right?”


There's no answer. I looked up and found Blue sleeping. He folded his hands on the table to become a pillow. His face looks very tired. I also saw eye bags lodged there.


I can't wake him up. Her innocent face while sleeping really made me feel at home for a long time staring at her.


I saw his work done. That nice. Because it means I can look at Blue's sleeping face longer. A gentle breeze blew from the window behind Blue made the Blue hairdo become moved into his eyes. Seeing that, I took the initiative to pull out that hair.


The blue eyes grazed slowly. He held my hand still at the top of his head. “Gituin continues, I sleep tight yes,” he said back closed his eyes.


I smiled at him. I repeat stroking the front of her hair with love. I wonder what makes Blue sleep less. He almost never told me about the problems he was having. I also want him to share my story with me.


I want to be a woman who always provides a shoulder when she is tired. Prepare your ears to hear his complaints. But all this time only Blue did that. He heard all my stories, became the focus for me.


Blue shampoo aroma smelled lightly. The sweet aroma. I can't believe a man seems to be wearing shampoo with fragrant fruits.


“Only can ya dating in perbus? This is a place to learn.”


I immediately turned my head and found Bima who had put on her slanted smile looking at me arrogantly. “Sst,” I said gestured for him to be quiet. Don't let Blue wake up hearing the noise.


Bima just looked at me with an illegible look. “Basic today's children,” his grunts then go from there.


He thought he was old so he could say that? Sucks.


**


Today Dad can't pick me up so I have to go home with Blue. But Blue went nowhere. He even skipped the last lesson. His phone was totally out of touch. It's also my fault for not giving any information first that I'm going home with him.


“You sure you don't want kuanterin?” ask Kartika. We're waiting at the stop right now.


“Iyaa, I took the bus or wait for Blue,” I replied.


Kartika was doubtful. But seeing the earnestness on my face he finally nodded and passed from there. I'm not alone at this stop because there are some 11th graders waiting.


“Blue!” I cried while standing hoping he could find me.


Blue put his eyes on me. “Shortly,” he said with a gesture. They entered a small alley not far from the school. They soon returned on foot. Some of them carried wood and iron sticks.


Blue was seen saying something to his friend who then his friend looked at me briefly and looked down. Blue ran over to me. “Ngapain here?” tanyakanya.


“I want to go home. Wait for the bus,” my great-grandson because his voice looks creepy now.


Blue holds both my shoulders. “Earth, Sea Phone now. You have to go home,” he said.


“Abang again college.”


Blue seems to be getting more anxious.


“Emang why the hell?” many wonder.


Blue did not answer yet I heard screams and footsteps heard. Hordes of other school students ran with iron sticks, bricks, and so on. It reminds me of the noise I had in the stadium a while ago.


“Damn it!” blue Exclamation. He immediately pulled me away from the situation.


Everything I see is like war. The two camps attacked each other with the tools each carried. Even the teachers did not dare to approach because the next school students threw stones into the school area so that the sound of broken glass could be heard.


My heart was racing and kept running in Blue's footsteps. My wrist hurts because he holds it too tight. Turns out we were blocked. There was another swarm coming from the opposite direction.


They looked at us and immediately ran over. Alan and Bima help Blue drive them away. Blue hid me behind his back like back then.


Alan and Bima were fighting with the horde, but 5 against 2 was by no means a balanced opponent. Bima's face was already injured in the attack. But he stood firm.


“Bima, retreat!” exclaim Alan.


Bima shook her head.


“Bim, reverse. Denger no! Gentian. Keep the Earth,” said Blue really like before. This time Bima glanced at me and then followed Blue.


He replaced Blue to guard me from attack. Blue is a real fighter. He managed to take down one opponent even though he did not carry a single weapon.


But they lost when Alan fell. His feet were kicked quite hard. The blue that saw it became unfocused. Someone behind him was about to throw a brick at him.


“Blue, beware!” myrag. My tears have come down since when. My voice's hoarse.


Hearing my screams, Blue immediately turned her head and was able to faze. But he had to fight 3 people alone. As powerful as Blue is, it remains unbalanced.


He fell down and was beaten right in front of me. “Bi-“ I who almost screamed again became stopped when Bima covered my mouth with her hands.


“Diem, later we will find a hiding place,” he whispered.


I could only cry watching Blue helplessly.


“Bima,” I grasped the brown end of his uniform exposed to the rest of the blood. “please Blue. This time don't stay with him again.”


I asked her for help in earnest. I saw Bima looking at me with an unquantifiable look.


Long time he was silent. “OK. But promise not to go anywhere. Stay here, okay?”


I'm nodding.


He immediately tidied up my hiding place with wooden boxes and then ran to beat them up.
