When the clock showed seven o'clock Melody asked permission to go home first, because she had a need. Before Melodi arrived at the shop door, she was detained by Bunga.
"Mel. You went go home by taking an online taxi right?" Asked Bunga.
"Yes, I use an online taxi."
"How about going home and being escorted by Agil?" Said Bunga. I, who was sipping coffee, suddenly choked, because of what Bunga said.
"Don't do it, it's okay I can go home by myself." answered Melodi.
"It's okay, if I'm not mistaken Agil also wants to find food for the boarding house."
"Y-y-yes... just be with me Mel." I said.
I don't know anything, have to say yes to what Bunga said, if not? This body will be all blue because she keeps pinching.
“Can i, Gil? It’s okey?" Asked Melodi.
"It's okay just relax."
"Well, I'll go first if that's the case. Heh duo of devil, I'll go first. I'll pay for my drink later, Bunga, okay!" I said everyone saying goodbye to the others.
"Okay notedd, Mr. Gil. Be careful with your heart, uh on the way." said the duo of astral creatures.
"You bastaa-" before Bunga said, I immediately ran and pulled Melodi to leave from there.
At the parking lot, Melodi said again that it was okay if he went home by online taxi. But because I basically have a heartless, so I said it's better for her to go home with me.
"This wearing Okto's helmet" I said while giving Okto's helmet to Melodi.
"Is it okay?"
"It's okay to just use it. At least before going home he will be busy looking for a coconut seller."
"Why like that?"
"Yes for him to make his coconut helmet." I said while pushing the motorcycle back and telling her to get on.
We don't talk much on the road. I just asked where she came home and she just answered what my question was. And it turns out that his and my boarding house are not too far away, both are on Jl, Setiabudi.
"Loh, our boarding house is close, it turns out." I said when I arrived in front of his boarding house.
"Really? Where do you go to boarding?"
"There was an alfamart there, I turned left and went down a little." I explained to her.
After that I said goodbye to go home to her. Actually, it's still noon for me, but I'm lazy to go back to the caffe, because it's far and the traffic jam is.
When I arrived at the boarding house, I immediately went into the room and lay down. I immediately opened the laptop and played the song. Right now the song from Sal Priadi - Kultusan echoes in my room, I am also immersed in this song." Because this song tells about someone who is hurt, but even if he is hurt by his loved one he will always be able to forgive her.
Immediately my tears fell, because I really couldn't hate Tami. I know she has hurt me, betrayed me, preferred with someone else. But I don't know why I can't hate her, I even hate myself. I hate myself who can't make Tami go, I hate myself who can't defend someone I love, I hate myself who is cowardly like this. And I fell asleep.
***
I woke up because of the noise from outside the boarding house, when I looked at the clock it turned out to be 11 pm. I'm surprised because there will be a class at 12 o'clock. I hurried to take a shower and got ready to leave for the campus. Exactly at 12 o'clock I arrived at campus, I parked my motorbike and immediately rushed to run. My class is on the 11th floor because today's class is in the lab. I'm not afraid of being late or anything, but because this class is even a minute late, I won't be able to enter and I've skipped this class 3 times, if I'm late again, I'm sure I'll skip this class and meet that lecturer more often.
Because I was in a hurry, I didn't think to take the elevator even though it was faster. Here I even run up the stairs from the lobby to the 11th floor, indeed humans are the hidden power will come out when the situation is under pressure. Arriving at the 11th floor, I saw my friends still outside even though it was past 12 o'clock. I thought it was all late but it turned out that the lecturer couldn't come because there was a business that required him to go out of town.
"I've been running from the parking lot, climbing the stairs from the lobby to the 11th floor, and when I arrived the lecturer was not there?" I said while snorting like being chased by a dog.
"After all, why don't you just take the elevator? At this hour, the elevator is quiet so it can be fast." Said my friend.
"I can’t thinking thought of taking the elevator, this is all I'm great to be able to run up the stairs from the lobby to the 11th floor." Answer me with a stupid tone.
"Well, it's better to go to the warteg now. I'm hungry." Invite Deri to everything.
"Alright yo. I'm also hungry, I haven't had breakfast yet." Reply me.
We also decided to eat at the next ward. When I was in the lobby, I saw Okto, he had just come down from the 2nd floor with his classmates.
"Too!!" Call me.
"Oii..." he replied while waving his hand. He also approached me who was with Deri, because the other were first for them to go to the warteg.
"Are you done with the class?" I asked.
"Yoi this is just done."
"Where are you going now?"
"Want to eat at most to warteg. Have you eaten yet?"
"Not yet. Me and Deri also want to go to the warteg."
"Okay let's eat."
"Letsssss gooooo~~~" I answered with Deri at the same time.
When we walk to warteg. I saw in Okto's class group there was Melodi. Yes, she is indeed who stays away from his classmates. But why if she stays away from his classmates, she wanted to be invited by Unge yesterday to join me and the others. I also told Okto and Deri to wait for a while.
"Oi you two wait here." I said.
“Hah? Where are you going?" Asked Okto.
"Just wait here." I answered then left them and walked closer to Okto's class group.
"Melodi." Call me while waving. I saw his friends were shocked, but I don't know what surprised them. Is it because I called the Melody? Ah really stupid.
"Eh Agil, what's wrong?" Melodi asked because she was as surprised as her friends.
"You're done with class right Mel?"
"Yes, this is just done."
Suddenly one of his friends in Melodi asked me, where I also knew him.
"Gil, do you know Melodi?" She asked while looking at me suspiciously.
"Yes I know. He and I are close friends. Yes right?" I said while looking away at Melodi. She just shut up while showing a shocked expression on his face. And she nodded to confirm.
"Oh, you are close friends." She answered with a suspicious tone. Maybe they don't believe it because the Melody they know is an introvert and stays away from the association around her. If I were them, I would definitely be like that, I can't believe it.
"Have you eaten yet? Not yet right? Let's eat together. Deri and Okto are already waiting there." Invite me to Melody. I also said goodbye to his friends, then walked towards the warteg.
"Agil what did you mean earlier?" She asked because she was confused by my behavior earlier.
"Hahaha you don't have to think about it. Now we'd better eat, it's a pity to see the faces of the two people there who are already hungry." I said while pointing at Deri and Okto.
"Eh Melodi, how can it be with Agil?" Asked Deri.
"Hehe... yes I met there." The answer was short because I was confused about what to answer.
"Let's eat, I'm hungry. I need an intake of ati ampela, eggs, and intestines so that I can be fat." I said.
"Letssss gooooo~~~" said Deri and Okto at the same time. Melodi who saw the strange behavior of the three of us just smiled to herself.
After eating, Okto said he wanted to buy a cigarette first, I joined and told Deri and Melodi to wait here.
"To. Why don't you try to invite Melodi to hang out in your class?"
"It's not that I don't want to. Like what I said, she kept the children in the class away, including me."
"I was just surprised, suddenly Melodi was with you."
Yes. Earlier I saw her walking alone behind your class group, while the others were chatting, joking in front of her. I can't bear to see her eat earlier, I went to her and told her to come with me."
"Do you have a feeling for the Melody?" Okto asked with a serious face.
"Hahaha... no. I just don't want to see her like that, so i invite her to eat." Answer me while laughing.
"You should know how I'm To." I continued.
"Yes Gil. I know, I just want to make sure. After all, if you like it, it doesn't matter." He said while laughing.
"For now I just want to make her comfortable, at least he is comfortable with his surroundings. I just want to ask for your help and the other children." Answer me.
"Yes, just calm down. We will all help you." He replied while patting my shoulder.
We are went back to warteg. There I saw Deri who was confused, maybe he didn't know what to say because of Melodi's which is indeed quiet. I also started chatting so that the atmosphere would not be too awkward.
"Where are the other children now?" I asked Deri and Okto.
"I don't know. I'll chat with them first." Deri replied.
"Bunga has a class that is done at 1 o'clock, she said. If Kim is at Aryo's boarding house, he said if we wants to go to the hangout, just let me know and they will follow." Said Deri.
"Alright let's wait for Unge, then let's go to the caffe." I said.
"You're going with us to the hangout, right Mel?" I asked.
"Ummm... i don’t think so, I just want to do the assignment at the boarding house."
"Doing the task? It happens that Okto is in the same class as you, right? Well, you are just work together there and teach this child so that he doesn't get used to asking for cheats and make him think." I said while looking at Okto and injected his feet so that he would say yes to what I said.
"Y-yes Mel just come along. Let's do it together there later okay." Okto said while feeling pain because my leg was injected.
Actually I just don't want Melodi to go home and she feels alone again. At least I want her to be comfortable with my environment, so that she knows that she is not alone. So, we went out and chose to wait for Bunga at Indomart near the campus. It didn't take long for Bunga to arrive and she was certainly surprised because Melodi was here with us.
"Mel how can you be here? Are you will come to the hangout too?" Bunga asked Melodi. Melodi just nodded as a sign that she said yes.
"Yeaahhhhh... Finally in this hangout there is a girl other than me." Answered Bunga happy.
"Let's go." I said to give commands to others.
When parked, Deri told us all to stop.
"Gil, who are you with?"
"Melody." I answer
"To, who are you with?"
"Yes, with Unge."
"So, if Agil and Melodi, Okto and Unge, THEN WHO AM I WITH?" Deri asked with a confused tone.
"Yes, it's the same as the taxi. How can you be independent to be a guy." Answer me.
"Yeah it's spoiled, it's useless, Der. Go with taxi and giveup to the girls" Said deri with his Sundanese accent.
Melodi and Bunga laughed because they heard Deri, Okto, and me talking. I was the one who saw Melodi laughing out loud and I just realized that Melodi was smiling and laughing, she was really beautiful.
"You're beautiful when you're laughing like that." I said unconsciously. Melodi who heard my words immediately shut up and threw his face away. Of course, I also threw my face away because without realizing it, I said something embarrassing to say to someone I just met.
We also set off to the hangout. When we arrived as usual we were greeted by the duo of astral creatures.
"Hi Bro. One V60 and there are Panama beans, okayyy?" I asked Bastian.
"Calm down, it has been separated specifically for Mr. Agil." Bastian replied while showing a pack of Panama beans.
"Wih is awesome. Okay, one."
"Okayyyy."
"What do you want to order Mel?"
"I'm just one Hot Cappucino." She said to Bastian.
"Noted Mrs. Melodi, I'm serving for you."
We all sat on the sofa and for a moment we were all busy with our respective activities which of course focused onphones. As usual, I opened a chat to make the atmosphere better.
"Mel, you said wanted to do the assignment? Well, do it together with Okto, I'm also afraid of forgetting." I said.
"What the monkey bastarddd, I deliberately didn't say it so I forgot that this was reminded." Reply okto.
"Because I know you won't do the task, I remember for you."
"Yes, let's do the task earlier, To. While here too." Invite Melodi to Okto.
Okto who used to be lazy to do the task, now he has to do it or not. I and the others could only laugh at Okto's confused expression because maybe Melodi's explanation that he didn't understand, cause his brain capacity was only 512mb.
"Ahhh Mel take a break first, it's been 1 hour of work right." Okto said with a red face because it might be a dizzy effect.
"Okay, take a break first." Melodi said yes to Okto's words. Okto went straight to the toilet, he said he wanted to take a shower so that his head could be quick again.
"Emmm guys, I'll go first at 4 o'clock. Because today I'm on a shift." I said.
"Oh you shift now? I don't think so." Said Deri.
"Ih Agil if you go later Melodi will go home with whom?" Ask. Bunga. It's true to bunga said, I didn't think about that.
"It's okay, I can go home by myself by taking an online taxi later." Answer Melodi. I'm actually not feeling good. Because I invited her to join the here, but I also went first.
"It's not just like this, you're still here because you're still doing your homework with Okto. Well, later the othes will also come here, so don't go home yet. Wait until I finish work, I'm done at 10 o'clock so just wait." I said while explaining what to do Melodi.
Melodi looks reluctant because maybe she is still afraid to be in this new environment. But Okto who had just taken a shower convinced Melodi to stay quiet here with the lure he asked to be taught until he understood. Indeed, this friend of mine is really understanding and knows what he has to do. Later I will treat him to buy batagor in front of the campus.
"Yes, just stay here until Agil is done with the shift. Let me have a girl friend here too." Bunga said that she really wants to have her girlfriend.
"Yes, you just stay here first. It's a pity that Unge's friend, she rarely has female friends who accompany here." I said to Melodi.
She also couldn't refuse and agreed to keep being there and waiting for me to finish my work later. At 4 o'clock I said goodbye to work, before I left I whispered something to Melodi.
"You wait for me here. Calm down they are both good and fun. Trust me." I whispered. She just smiled and then nodded.
I also went to my workplace. Today the atmosphere of the cafe is crowded and I really can't hold my phone or make a lot of jokes today, because the atmosphere is quite crowded with orders that keep coming in. At nine o'clock the atmosphere was quite calm, because most of the customers had already left this café.
I quickly took all the empty glasses and wiped the table to make it clean again. Arriving at the bar, I immediately washed all the empty glasses that were used by consumers. Dino feels strange because I'm rarely quick to clear the area and wash the glass, because usually I'm the laziest to clear the area.
"Gil, are you still in the same time?" Asked Dino.
"What's wrong with you? your question so weird.”
"After all, you're really excited to clear the area and wash the glass."
"Yes, I did this on purpose."
"What?" Dino is getting weirder.
"Yes, I'm deliberately tidying up now, so that later at 10 o'clock you will do the rest, I'll to come back first because I have something to do." I said to explain.
"It's the bastard guyy. No wonder suddenly diligent, because there is a desire." Said Rizki who suddenly joined in.
"Hahaha... it's okay sometimes." I said while laughing. At exactly 10 o'clock, I immediately asked permission to go home first to my two friends. And I immediately hit to go to the caffe.
When I arrived at the caffe, I saw the others joking including Melodi. I'm happy to see Melodi who can laugh out loud like this.
"Woy... what are you talking about? Laughing like this." I asked without greeting first. They immediately saw me and even laughed.
"What's wrong with you guys? I asked instead of laughing. Yes, I know I'm funny, but it's not funny to be laughed at either." I said I was confused because of their attitude.
"Not Gil. Come here, sit down first, drink first, smoke first." Say Aryo to me.
"Yes, after all, you are all weird. Well, where is the cigarette." I also took a cigarette, then smoked it.
"What are you talking about? I'm curious." I said firmly because I was curious.
"We are talking about funny things first. One of them is that you want to pee when we first entered the campus. You rushed to the toilet and then entered by mistake, you went into the girls' toilet where there were many girls in the toilet as well. Yes, one floor there was all shocked, why did the girls scream, they thought someone was possessed or something, it turned out that because of this, the wrong child entered the toilet." Deri explained while being accompanied by laughter.
"Well, how not to go to the toilet. My condition is really tired and it's the first time I've entered the campus so I don't know which girl's toilet is on the left or right. Well, I just entered and it turned out to be the wrong address." I answered while laughing.
The clock already shows eleven o'clock at night. We all went home immediately. Not like yesterday where there was no chat on the street, now it's a journey that makes me smile to myself.
"Your friends are all cool, Gil." Said Melodi.
"Yes, they are indeed cool people, Mel."
"Melodi." Call me.
"Why Gil?"
"You should never feel alone. Now you have all of us, if you have a problem or want to tell a story, you can come to us. Because I guarantee that their children will be happy if you become a part of them, especially Unge will be excited. Now, you don't feel alone anymore, even in class if you want to chat or joke there is Okto so just calm down. And outside if you need a place, there are all of us who will always accept you." I said.
"Yes I know. You asked me to eat together this afternoon because you saw that I didn't mingle with the classmates. You told me to wait for you to come back from work, so that I can feel how it feels to be alone, it feels to be surrounded by people who care and respect me. I know it's all from your friends, they said earlier. Because they used to be just like me who were uncomfortable with themselves and those around me."
"Actually you are the one who saved them and now you save me. You invite me to get out of my discomfort with myself and around me. You have made a home for all of us, you have made a family that will really help and love each other." She continued and I felt my back wet.
"Agil thank you. Because of you I know that there are still people I can trust, there are still people who need me. Agil thank you." She said while crying on my back.
Tonight is the night that I will always remember. The night where someone thanked me. Where I was actually saved by them. Because of them I can forget what my problems are, because of them I can become better. And thank you also Melodi, because your words have made me feel like a person who can be useful to many people.
This time I thank the universe
Because you have prepared a good friend for me
Not only about relationships but about everything
Thank you because I'm grateful to have them
Those who are willing to be friends with me
Without seeing how my background or past is
Thank you universe I'm so grateful for what you give
And I hope the universe also gives the same thing
To those who have accepted me
