...༻⊚༺...

Now Zafran is in Faisal's car. He was forced to hitchhike because he was left behind by Ramanda.

Zafran sat in the back seat with Resti. He kept looking at Lika. The girl sat on the chair next to Faisal.

The same thing Lika did. He glanced at Zafran several times through the rearview mirror.

Unbeknownst to Zafran and Lika, Resti notices. The girl realized that there was something. Even so, Resti chose silence. He who knew Faisal's feelings towards Lika, knew what to do. Resti will talk when only alone with Lika.

The first person to go home was Zafran. He did not forget to thank Lika. The one who gave him a ride was Faisal.

Zafran and Lika spoke through gazes. After that, they separated.

Now Zafran let out a long breath. Then step into the house. He went straight to the bathroom.

The next day, when Zafran was about to have breakfast, he got word about Ramanda. The girl said she was sick.

"Mother don't lie. Yesterday he was all right" Zafran said, smearing bread with jam.

"So you said Mother was lying? Don't believe that? If you want proof, ask yourself Ramanda," replied Zara. His forehead crept in.

Zafran is advancing his lower lip. Lazily he picked up the phone and tried to call Ramanda. Unfortunately the girl didn't pick up Zafran's call.

Zafran's shoulder was piqued indifferently. He was sure Ramanda would call back as usual.

"Where?" ask Zara.

"Not lifted." Zafran replied briefly.

"You guys fight?" Gamal got into the conversation.

"No. I've never fought a serious fight with Ramanda" said Zafran, shaking his hands in front of his face. He ate bread in one go. Then use the milk to swallow everything.

"Oh my goodness, Zaf! Slowly eat. Like a possessed man," said the worried Zara.

Zafran could not answer because his mouth was full of food. He picked up the bag and suddenly floated a kiss on Gamal's cheek. Zafran's biological father automatically jerked. The son had never done that before.

"What do you want, huh?! You think Papah didn't know the meaning of that kiss?" timpal Gamal's. Making Zafran has no power to stem a smile.

Zafran's hand rubbed his nape for no reason. He said, "Car, Pah. Get her late."

"Gee! Tell me to get lost here and there!" cerocos Zara's.

"No. I never get tired. I never went to a nightclub. But if for example, I am..."

"No!" Gamal and Zara called out one word at a time.

This time Zafran chuckled while turning his eyeballs. Until a brilliant idea came up. The grin is etched on his face.

"OKAY. If I'm not allowed to use my own car, I'm gonna go with my friends and take them to the nightclub. But if I don't want to go, same Mother Papah has to get back in my car." Zafran stared at Gamal and Zara in turn. Both of his parents looked at each other.

Kala Zara gave a nod of her head, so Gamal immediately looked at Zafran. Rather than seeing his son go to a nightclub, he would rather let Zafran back in the car.

Zafran is happy not to be helped. He immediately took out the key that Zara had proffered. Then ran quickly through the exit.

Gamal bobble-head saw the behavior of Zafran. "Your son!" he said as he glanced at Zara.

"Your son too!" sahut Zara as she moved away from the dining table. But Gamal's hand stopped. The man stood up and immediately whispered, "What if we're the ones going to the nightclub?"

Plaque!

Zafran just arrived at school. Dozens of disciples immediately greeted the moment he got out of the car. This made Zafran confused. Given that the welcome had never happened before.

"Look! Our ketos candidate is coming.." rebuked Ervan while embracing Galih who showed a flat expression.

Zafran patted his own eel. He just remembered that he had been registered as a candidate for chairman of the isa.

"Lo readyin, how can I beat Lika?" ask Ervan.

Zafran smiled wryly. He only exchanged glances with Galih who happened to already know everything.

"Obsolutely normal. I'm not ready for anything." Zafran impressed relaxed. He walked first to the school gate.

"Why? Loses to lose. I heard, Lika again prepared many things to win," added Ervan. Act as if what he says is true.

"Not to be pretentious." Zafran pushed Ervan's forehead. He certainly did not believe the words of his friend.

From a distance, Zafran saw many students clustered around the indoor field. He and his friends were curious. They rushed to see what was happening.

All eyes were on Zafran. The presence of the man was like a life-revoking angel. How not? The hordes of people who were broken through by Zafran were Lika's supporters.

"Why did you come here?" take a tenth grader. His words were not uttered by Zafran at all.

From a distance of several meters, Lika was busy distributing the parcels. His position was being crowded with many disciples. So Zafran could not immediately discover his whereabouts. Even otherwise.

The first person to know about Zafran was Nadia. He nudged Lika with an elbow twice.

"Lik! There's Zafran!" nadia said with a tone full of emphasis.

Lika's eyelids instantly widened. He swallowed his own saliva. Coincidentally, Lika deliberately kept her strategy secret to become the head of the osis.

To be honest Lika wanted to discuss many things about the lesson and the chairwoman of the isis. But due to the incident at the playground yesterday, Lika had to think twice to raise her voice.

"Did you come here?!" timpal Lika's.

"As far as I dong. This is a public place!" reply Zafran. He paused for a moment and continued, "apparently gini ya way lo. Very devious. Why are you teachers given ginian!" Zafran snatched Lika's parcel from the hands of a student. Then throw it in the trash.

"Me-me spending! Than you whose job is just playing ball on the field!" lika Responsibility. He immediately threw away his face.

Not wanting the quarrel to continue, Zafran immediately moved on. He goes with being accompanied by Ervan and Galih.

Zafran's hand quietly took the phone into his pants pocket. He told Lika to meet behind the school.

Upon arrival at the front of the class, Galih stopped Zafran's movement. He turned the guy's body so he could face him.

"Lo's relationship with Lika how the hell is it? I was confused to see that I knew!" galih said in a slow tone. People around you can't hear.

Before speaking, Zafran turned his head left and right. He brought his mouth closer to Galih's ear.

"I told you that our relationship was the biggest secret. If a lot of people knew, then automatically our family would also know.." said Zafran.

"Honestly, I'm tired of it. Aren't you tired?" ask Galih.

"Yes tired! I'm the same Lika will definitely need your help." Zafran patted slowly on Galih's shoulder. He went into class and put the bag to the table. Zafran hurriedly met Lika.

While on his way to the back of school, Zafran gets a call from his mother. He was told Ramanda had been taken to the hospital.

Zafran's move stopped. His eyes widened. She did not expect Ramanda to be sick to that extent.
