Cupid I'M In Love
Chapter 5 Apology

Yesterday's incident really made Nadia angry. Because waiting with no results is a very annoying thing for him. Feeling deceived and played.

This morning Unusually, Nadia left early in the morning, upon arrival Nadia at school, Nadia immediately entered the classroom and immediately sat in her chair.

In the classroom, still looks empty, no student has come, except him.

Because there was no one in the class, Nadia finally decided to clean the classroom, the whiteboard is still full of markers, she removed it clean.

Then after that he tidied up the messy teacher's desk, so that it was neat and clean.

Without realizing it, from the direction of the door, Ricky was seen standing in front of the door, then Ricky rushed into the classroom directly approached Nadia, without putting his bag first.

"Sorry Nad, I'm so sorry" Ricky said without further ado.

Nadia was surprised. Because he was too busy tidying the teacher's desk, so he did not notice there was someone behind him.

Then he immediately turned around to see who had spoken earlier, who turned out to be Ricky.

"I'm sorry Nad, yesterday I couldn't keep my promise anymore" Ricky said without giving Nadia a chance to speak.

After hearing those words, Nadia said, "uh you, it's okay, I'm getting used to your promises. So there's nothing to talk about anymore."

"For Nad, for yesterday I really did not intentionally Nad, actually yesterday it was akuuuu ..." had not been able to continue his words, Nadia immediately cut off Ricky's words.

And he said, "have you Rick, I don't need to listen to your explanation, all I need now, is the book."

"Okey .. okey .. I'll give you the book," Ricky said as he picked up a novel in his bag.

"Here is the book, I haven't had time to read it all, just a few pages that I just read. This is Nad, the book" Ricky said, handing the book to Nadia.

"Thanks," Nadia replies to Ricky.

"Oh yes, this is money to pay for the book you paid for yesterday" Nadia continued, handing over a number of banknotes to Ricky.

"And one more thing, let's just say that yesterday's events never happened between us. All that, it's just a coincidence, okay!" nadia said firmly.

Ricky was silent without saying a single word, while his hand clasped tightly to the amount of money given by Nadia.

Sometime after Nadia gave the money to Ricky, Nadia's friends began to arrive.

Ricky who was still standing dumbstruck, finally immediately walked to his seat, with his eyes fixed on Nadia.

The conditioned gaze full of meaning was like wanting to say something to Nadia.

The day changed, the atmosphere in class 2B still remained the same, there were still many girls who came to the class to meet with Ricky, although there are some who only see it from the direction of the classroom door.

As if they never get tired of getting close to Ricky, or maybe they are trying to attract Ricky to be his girlfriend.

Because until this moment, as they know, Ricky is still single, has not had a lover.

Incidentally today is Saturday, and the schedule of today's subjects is not as busy as usual.

Because today, there are two teachers who are absent from teaching because they are sick, and also the permission because there is a meeting to the education office.

So for today's learning just do the tasks that have been entrusted to the homeroom.

Nadia can't wait to enjoy tomorrow's weekend off. Because Nadia is very eager to enjoy her big weekend break, by going to the public library that has just opened.

It actually opened 1 month ago. This library was revitalized 3 years ago and finally re-opened to the public.

Maybe because this library has a new face, with a very comfortable and contemporary interior, so this library became viral on social media.

Therefore, Nadia is very enthusiastic to be able to go there.

Nadia also invites Mirna to go there, but unfortunately on Sunday besuk suddenly Mirna there is an event with her extended family. So Nadia was forced to go alone.

*

The next day, Nadia was getting ready to go to the Jakarta library. The time has been shown at half-nine in the morning, because the library's operating hours are scheduled: Monday - Sunday, 09:00 - 17:00 wib.

Nadia rushed to say goodbye to her mother and father. Nadia said maybe she'll go to the library until the afternoon.

Because there, in addition to wanting to read novels, he also wanted to read some additional literature references to add insight into the subjects in class 2.

This time Nadia went to the Library by riding a bus.

But because Mirna could not come, so only Nadia left alone.

Nadia finally arrived at the library. There he went straight to the 2nd floor of the Long Building, then took the escalator to the 3rd floor, then straight to the library area on the 4th floor. 

There Nadia was very amazed, with the design of this library, which looks very modern and minimalist with a touch of industrialist style.

Visible from the dominance of gray color and cement acian walls. There are also matching light brown wooden shelves combined with gray on the walls and floors.

In addition, here also provides a variety of types of books that are many and interesting. The corners in this library are also so instagramable.

No wonder if many visitors who come deliberately here to look for aesthetic spots. Well, to meet the needs of their social media content.

Visitors here are not prohibited from meeting photos, as long as they take pictures or create content, they are not noisy or interfere with other visitors.

Nadia then picked up a few books to read, then after getting the book, she went to pick her seat.

He chose to sit in the privacy reading room, which had a blocked room, and this room could be occupied by 2 people.

So fun he read, to the point that time has shown at 12:30 wib.

His stomach began to feel hungry and he finally went out for a while to go to Dzuhur prayer first, then just went to buy food and drinks for him to eat.

After she finished eating, Nadia refreshed for a while, to refresh her long-read eyes earlier, by just looking around the Instagramable library building.

Suddenly from behind there was someone patting him on the shoulder. Nadia looked over and was shocked. Turns out the one who just patted him on the shoulder was Ricky.

"Aaahhh, again Ricky! why are you always there when I'm alone?hey, you Ricky, what else is it, you're here?" ask Nadia.

"I-I .. was just a walk," Ricky replied, stammering.

"If you're alone, what else is Nad?" Ricky asked back.

"I, I'm in the library Rick, want to read a book,"

"If so, I'm the same Nad, too" replied Ricky perfunctorily.

"Well, we go upstairs to read there," Ricky asked.

"Hmmm ..." Nadia walked ahead of Ricky.

Upon arrival in the reading room, Nadia immediately sat in her place earlier, while followed by Ricky who immediately sat next to her.

"Eh, why sit here?" ask Nadia.

"Kan, it's still empty here, so can you please sit here?" answer Ricky.

"Yes .. yes .. up to you."

Actually Nadia felt embarrassed and awkward when sitting alone with Ricky.

"Emmmmm ... Nad, there's actually something I want to talk to you about" Ricky said seriously.

"What do you want to say? if you want to talk, yes, by the way," replied Nadia who was wrong to hear Ricky's statement earlier.

"Nad, I seriously want to apologize to you, regarding the matter a few days ago. About, why couldn't I come back then," Ricky looked into Nadia's eyes deeply.

Then he continued his words, "at that time, I had actually walked to Nad's garden, but before I got there, I suddenly received a call from home, my grandma, oma I was in Nad's hospital, so I rushed to the hospital to see the state of oma."

"As long as you know Nad, oma everything to me, I love oma more than I love my parents."

There was a deep look of sadness on Ricky's face. Just this time, Nadia saw Ricky who was like that. Nadia's heart is also tenuous with the condition experienced by Ricky.

The annoyance he initially felt to Ricky was gone, turning into compassion. Nadia does not know, how close and unfortunately Ricky to his oma.

But what Nadia knows, that Ricky really sincerely express his feelings unfortunately to his oma.

"Ricky, I'm sorry you're koq, so don't think about what happened yesterday. Bener koq, I'm fine. It is precisely I who must apologize to you, for thinking negatively of you."

"Let's just say that nothing ever happens, we'll start a new chapter in the future, okay!" said Nadia who tried to calm Ricky.

"Thank you Nad, you've heard my explanation, and you've been heartened to forgive my mistake" Ricky smiled, his face beaming again. The dimples on her cheeks seemed obvious, adding to her sweet smile.
