Since that day, somehow there has always been an accidental meeting between me and Bima. Even more annoying, the man always greeted him with a distinctive hand gesture and wave.
Like in the canteen. “Earth!” yells.
In corridor.
Ceremonial field.
Even the stop I was waiting for my dad to pick me up.
“Bu-"
“Whispering!” my grumbling to him. He just nodded and approached me. Oh come on even in the library too? This is a place where everyone has peace.
From the corner of my eye I could see the man sliding the bench to sit next to me. His face was pretentious with the package book opening right in front of him. “Sst, Earth,” call him again.
I looked up while putting on an annoyed face.
“My friends want acquaintances,” he said again.
I'm sick of that. “Continue? I care so?” tanyaku. I closed the novel I was reading and hurriedly came out of the library to leave it.
Fortunately, he did not follow me.
In the evening I was alone. There is actually a great loneliness. Once I felt that my parents only devoted their full attention to my brother. Though he remains an ordinary man in adolescence who also needs an outpouring of training.
I saw the alarm clock showing at 10 p.m. My eyes are not at all sleepy after learning math for the daily replay tomorrow. I decided to grab my old laptop whose color had faded.
I chose to surf on social media focobooks that I haven't opened in a long time. On the homepage I can directly see the posts of friends during SMPku. Now I miss them. The high school days that I thought were fun turned out to be unfathomable. I was pretty ostracized in class just because of the questions I asked in some of the lessons for the teacher. They assumed I was a smartass and then started to give me some distance.
Though I didn't think at all like that. I asked because I wanted to know more. That'sthat's all.
I received all the friend requests lined up on my account.
Ting.
The sound of the notification left me quite astonished. No one usually sends me messages. I tried to open the incoming message from the Blue Space joint account. A pretty unique name.
“Hi Earth, do you know Bima?” ask him unexpectedly.
I tried to press his profile and didn't see any of his personal photos. I didn't know this guy and he could have asked me a question I didn't think was important.
Being bored, I decided to respond to the strange conversation.
“Know,” replied.
“You little sister Sea yes.”
Just read it my heart is tight. I'm trying to make sure that guy mentioned brother. Even though my brother and I are not very familiar and many of my friends do not know that I am not an only child.
“I know from your name. Nusantara. Typical name for family tag,” he continued.
That makes a lot of sense.
“Who are you?” my attack. My curiosity for him is increasing. First he knew Bima, second he knew my brother.
“I Blue. It's not clear yes in my account name.”
Hahh started another one of those sucks.
“Ok.” Answer's short.
He sent emoticons laughing at my answer. “Other times if people contact not to be questioned continue yes. Good night.”
Blue Space is offline.
My mind wandered. If my guess is correct, he must be the one Bima wanted to introduce me to. That made quite a lot of sense because what he called first time was indeed Bima.
The next day I with the intention of rushing to the Bima class. But the man has not yet come. So annoying.
“Oh so now in addition to the same caper teacher, the same caper next class as well,” said Tania, my classmate. Some friends who were with him also laughed as if it was the funniest thing in the world.
I just lowered my head and tightened my grip on the white totebag I was carrying. As I thought, if they don't respond to it, they'll go away on their own. But still, I feel sad.
“No need at dengerin.”
I looked over and found the woman with her twintail hair. He sat next to me without further ado. “They are so. Cuekin. You're IPA 1 kid right?” her question now fully anchored her gaze to me.
I nodded awkwardly. He held out his hand right in front of me. “Halo, my name is Echa. IPA Child 3. You?”
“Earth,” I replied slowly.
Echa's eyes glistened. “Earth? Earth?” reworked.
I chuckled at that beauty. “Iya, earth.”
“That's a really unique name. I was the first time I heard a name like that. What is the long name?” this time I asked.
Just about to answer. Someone has taken over.
“Archava Bumi Nusantara.”
I looked over and found the man I was waiting for finally coming too.
“Bima, I'm the same Earth.”
“Yes I helped answer,” replied Bima casually. Echa pursed her lips in annoyance. I just chuckled at seeing the two of them.
“You're waiting for me, right?” ask Bima directly, Accurate guess.
I nod my head.
“Yok, all of you to the canteen I have not had breakfast,” he said precisely giving orders. Okay, patience Earth. This time I need information from him.
“Oke.” I got up from my seat and looked at Echa. “Echa, later we chat again yes,” my words while saying goodbye to him.
The woman nodded.
Now Bima and I walked side by side to the cafeteria. It's hard enough for me to keep up with her legs.
“So what to say?” ask him after we found an empty table.
I was still thinking and trying to figure out which one I should talk to him about and which one I shouldn't.
“Blue Force,” I glanced at his facial expression. “that's your temen right?”
Bima looked ordinary when I mentioned that name. He nodded lightly while eating the batagor in front of him. “Yes, he wants to know you,” he replied.
“Keep your name focobookku?” my guess.
He shook. “I just don't know,” answered. He was honest because we weren't friends there.
“Keep she knows where?”
Bima is holding up shoulders. “You doubt the guy who wants PDKT?"
“Hah?”
“Lupain.”
I need extra thought for that. “She's your friend from when?” I tried to dig further.
“Newly know SMA pas kok. I'm the same he was basketball,” he replied.
That makes sense.
“Keep why did he suddenly want to know me?”
Her food is already clean. He pulled away the empty bowl and looked at me straight. “Yes where do I know.”
Most of the answers are useless.
“You are interested in him too? Goody. Later if it's done, don't forget the commission,” he said mocking me.
I threw a roll of tissue at him which was greeted with his free-flowing laughter. Oh my goodness, how could I be stuck with this guy.
“Udah? Doesn't anyone wonder anymore? I want this bell.”
I'm thinking hard.
“Why does he know the Sea?”
Finally the question escaped from my tongue.
“Hah? Is there anyone who does not know the sea? I'm from baby-“
Okay. We have different thoughts. From that strange conversation I knew that he did not know my brother. Only the Blue Sky knows him.
