“Dita, someone's looking,” call Siska, a classmate.
“Who?” Dita cringing.
“No idea, senior, guy,” clear Siska.
Dita stood up from her seat and walked towards the door thinking in mind who was looking for her. There were not many seniors he knew let alone men. “No way he can.”
“Hai, Dita,” greet Bara while waving and smiling sweetly at her as she exits the lecture hall.
“Eh ... Brother Bara.” Dita was quite surprised to see Bara who was already standing in front of his lecture hall.
“How are you?”
“Good, Brother. How did Kak Bara get here?”
“Do I disturb?”
“Oh ... not really, just relaxed while waiting for the next hour.”
“Thank God if you don't disturb.” Bara said a sigh of relief.
“Mmmhhh .. sorry, Brother Bara there is need what yes?” tanya Dita was a little shy.
“There's something I want to ask you. Will you have time?”
Dita thought for a moment. “What is it about Brother if I may know?”
“Later you know too, how? Can?” ask Bara again.
“I will finish college at 3, Kak.”
“In the room here too?”
“Iya, Brother.”
“Later 3 o'clock I'm here again. I go first.” Bara smiled happily as she left Dita's lecture room. “Yesssss!!!!” He clenched his hands.
After Bara left, Dita went back into the lecture room. Greeted with whistles and chattering of his classmates who teased him.
“Suittt ... suittt ...”
“Cieee .. cieee ...”
“Wah Dita secretly playing with senior.”
“Cieeee new diapelin kating handsome.”
“Duh .. potek liver brother.”
And various other babbles, but Dita tried to act ordinary even though almost one class teased her.
“Gaisss, I have nothing to do with Brother Bara.” Dita immediately clarified as soon as they finished teasing her.
But instead of silence they even more teasing him and only stopped when the lecturer entered the class. Brought a sigh of relief as the lecturer began his class.
Once the lecture was over, most of Dita's friends immediately rushed outside the lecture hall. While Dita was still sitting there with Bella and Baim.
“Please, accompany me to meet Brother Bara,” pinta Dita with a pinched face on Bella and Baim.
“Sori Ta, I have a promise with the children kos nih,” said Bella.
“You can, Im?” Dita looked at Baim with a hopeful look.
“Sori, I also have an event, Dit. Later it will even be a mosquito repellent if I accompany you,” seloroh Baim.
“Ya already then,” said Dita resigned.
“We've been waiting for this,” shouted his friend from the front door.
“Ya,” says Slowly.
“Yuk ah.” Take Bella, then the three of them get up from their seats and walk outside the lecture room.
“Hai, Brother Bara,” greet Bella cheerfully. “Nitip my friend yes, do not let the slightest blister,” the candle.
“Ready!!! I will take care of my life,” Bara reply while laughing.
“We first yes,” say goodbye Baim on Dita and Bara.
“OK, be careful on the road,” said Bara, then an awkward atmosphere approached them.
Dita who did not have any clue as to what Bara was going to ask was silent, as she also did not know how to start. If usually he easily gets along with anyone, inexplicably with Bara feels awkward.
“It's us to chat where ya?” tanya Bara broke the silence between them.
“So that Brother Bara only, but I went to the musala first yes Kak, fear that later kesorean until home,” replied Dita.
“Then we go to the musala first, I also have not Asar.”
Dita nodded her head, then they went to the technique musala.
“Some angry oneswe didn't chat gini?” bara fishing rod as they walk towards the musala.
“Meanour Brother?” Dita looked at Bara.
“Your boyfriend will be angry or you do not chat with other guys,” Bara explained.
“Keep the pick up yesterday fitting in Gelex who if not your girlfriend?” bara fishing rod again.
“My brother it.”
Bara nodded his head, rising a bright smile on his lips. “Yes, still open chance for me.”
“Kirain was your girlfriend yesterday, making me almost desperate,” Bara said.
“Despaired?” Dita's forehead wrinkled while looking at Bara with a confused look.
“Yes, if you have a boyfriend, I don't have a chance to get close to you. Well it has arrived, we want to pray or by ourselves?” ask Bara when they have arrived at the technical musala.
“Berjemaah also may if there are others, the reward will be 27 times that of salat alone,” replied Dita.
“OK, we'll meet you at the top."
Dita nodded her head, then she went to the northern part of the musala and went up to the 2nd floor to a place of wudu and a special toilet for female pilgrims.
"At this time I can be your prayer priest, may I be your life priest. Aamiin's." Prayers in his heart, then he took off his shoes and headed to the place of wudu.
After wudu on the 1st floor, Bara immediately went up to the 2nd floor for prayers. He waited for Dita who was still preparing and wearing mukena. Near Bara there were two men who also prepared to pray. Once Dita and another woman standing beside Dita were ready, Bara came forward and began to pray asar.
Finish their prayers and pray down to the 1st floor again and meet in front of the musala, because the stairs for male and female worshipers are different.
“We want to chat where is this? A canteen? A gazebo? Or find a place outside?” Bara asked after meeting Dita in front of the musala.
“Cantin is also okay, not long right?”
“Why is it long?”
“Mmmhhh .. it's okay, Kak.”
“Let me drive home if you are afraid of kesorean.”
“Not for Sis, later I go home alone.”
“Ya already, yuk to canteen.” They both went to the cafeteria not far from the musala.
Because it was late afternoon, not so many students were in the cafeteria. And, incidentally Bara accidentally met some fellow civil engineering friends there who teased him for seeing him walking with a girl other than Adelia.
“Wah new gebetan, Bar.”
“Finally got a girl too lo, Bro.”
She laughed at the temptation of her friends. “Aamiin, pray yes Bro ,” he said while glancing at Dita who felt uncomfortable with chattering his friends.
“We sit here yes,” Bara select a table that is in the corner, a bit far from the others. She wanted Dita to feel comfortable without being bothered by her friend's jokes.
Dita took off the backpack and sat on the chair, followed by Bara who sat in front of her.
“What message do you want?” Bara Tawar.
“Not for Sis, I'm still full.”
“Drink yes, I'll get you a minute.” Bara headed to the booth that sold drinks. He bought two bottles of cold mineral water.
“Drink first let it be fresher.” Bara handed a bottle of mineral water to Dita, not forgetting she turned the lid first so that Dita did not have trouble opening it.
“Thank you, Brother.” Dita received the bottle of mineral water.
“So how can I get close to you?” Ask Bara without a stale ado.
“That means ... close as a friend, Brother? Bo .. can kok.” Reply Dita stuttered a little.
“I want more than friends, Dit.” Said Bara while looking into Dita's eyes.
Surprised by Bara's revelation, he tried to digest the intent of the man sitting in front of him. Is this a love statement? But they had even met three times including this time. “It doesn't make sense,” Dita shook her head.
“What brother mean?” Afraid to misinterpret Bara's words.
“You don't understand, Dit,” Bara looked at Dita who looked confused.
Dita shook her head with a confused facial expression.
“I want to approach you because I want you to be my girlfriend.” Finally explained the meaning.
The duarrr!!!! Dita was clearly shocked, her heart was instantly beating fast. Never crossed his mind was a senior intending to approach him. She did not expect it to turn out that Bara was so forthright with her feelings.
Dita turned her gaze outside the canteen, trying to find the best answer words.
“You don't need to answer it now if you're not ready.” Bara said when Dita was still silent for a few minutes.
“Emm .. not so Kak, but for now I just want to focus on college. If Brother Bara wants us to be friends, I accept it with pleasure. But for more than that, sorry brother, I can not.” Dita breathed a sigh of relief after saying it.
The look on Bara's face was suddenly sad after hearing Dita's answer. There was a sad glint in his eyes. “So, you want us to be friends?”
“Iya Brother, sorry.”
Meanwhile there was a man who had just come out from the musala looking at them from a distance with a pushy look. “Why are the two of them there? Are Bara really seriously going to approach him?”
