Dreams and Hope [POV: Andheera]
Episode 83

Next day.

Kirin school Jakarta, more precisely on the edge of the basketball field, before entering the Andheera class always took the time to see the basketball game from friends and juniors on the court.

With a backpack still attached to his back, he sat on the edge of the court as if he really noticed the basketball game that was going on, but in fact his mind and soul were not there.

“you have come.” said Jaehyun after a few minutes playing with his junior, he immediately walked up to Andheera who was still silent as if he did not hear Jaehyun's greeting.

“Andheeraa!” call Jaehyun who raised his tone while shaking his hand in front of his girlfriend, until finally Andheera was jolted from her daydream.

“ahh. yes..” surprised.

“you daydream again?

This time what are you thinking?” Jaehyun asked as he sat down beside Andheera.

“no, you're done playing it? for a minute.” He gave a bottle of mineral water beside him to Jaehyun.

“I played for 20 minutes and it was more than enough for me, what's up? you can tell me.” He said after drinking a mouthful of mineral water given by Andheera.

“not your business.” Ketus Andheera is still with a straight forward view.

“ciih! you're still just ketus, we're already friends, can't you behave like a friend in general.” Papar Jaehyun who again sipped his mineral water.

“who said.”

“sial! just like you.

Oh yeah, can you call Hanyoora? I haven't heard from him in a long time.”

“you can call him.” Sahut Andheera flat.

“some days he didn't pick up or respond to my phone, and he hasn't been in tutoring a few times, I think something's happened to him.” His complaint.

“meet if you're worried about it.” advises Andheera.

“hey, at least I have self-esteem, there is no way I show my concern to him, while he himself is so shut out of me.”

“maybe he already has another.” Andheera ngasal.

Jaehyun was silent for a while, all this time he had never thought like that, could what Andheera said was the truth.

“itu..impossible.”sangkal Jaehyun confident.

“hahaha! hey you're so confident, you think Yoora still keeps you in her heart.” Andheera's temptation was accompanied by mocking laughter.

“i'm serious Andheera, if he is indeed in a relationship with another, he should be happy not.. but. he looks strange.” Her papar.

“ya try to explain the meaning of your strange word like what?” andheera exclaimed as she sharpened her gaze at Jaehyun.

“dia.”

“sometimes she laughs so hard, then turns crying so? you think he's crazy.” Sela Andheera raised her tone, as if she still did not believe the story that Jaehyun told a few days ago about his personal condition.

“i'm not kidding, Andheera.” Firmly Jaehyun who was still trying to convince Andheera.

Andheera's facial features instantly changed, now he does not consider it anymore a joke or a made-up story, considering he himself had met the mother of Hanyoora in the hospital, also the sudden transfer of his majors which resulted in some of his grades declining.

Maybe he had missed something, something so important..

Without saying goodbye to Jaehyun, the girl immediately went to class, but not her class but the class Hanyoora occupied. Seeing Andheera rushing away with a worried look, Jaehyun got up and followed where Andheera was going.

“where are you going?”

“class Hanyoora.” Sahutnya with a straight look to the eight and the steps are increasingly accelerated.

“at least you should put your backpack first Andheera, we can meet him later during rest right, besides soon bell in.” Said Jaehyun who was still following Andheera who was 1 step behind him.

But Andheera did not listen, he continued walking until he reached his destination.

Hanyoora Class (IPA 1)

Arriving at the doorstep of the Hanyoora class, Andheera immediately circulated her eyes throughout the classroom IPA 1, but the person she was looking for was not in the class. Likewise Jaehyun who helped find Hanyoora from several crowds in the class Hanyoora.

“did you see Hanyoora?” Jaehyun asked a student who was about to enter his class who was none other than Hanyoora's classmate.

“ I think he did not enter again.” his response while confirming the slightly sagging frame of his glasses.

“again? has he ever truant before?” Jaehyun asked again as if he did not believe what the student said.

“iya, sometimes he truant at certain hours, then back again.” His paparab then went into his class leaving Andheera and Jaehyun who still seemed confused.

“that is impossible.” muttered Jaehyun.

Again speechlessly Andheera turned her body blankly as she continued to walk towards her class.

“hey.. wait Andheera!” yelled Jaehyun who was again just abandoned by his friend.

“apa Hanyoora is fine.” he muttered as he continued to walk beside Andheera.

Jaehyun took out his cell phone in his pants pocket, then intended to call Hanyoora. But the phone is not connected the possibility of the phone is indeed turned off.

“not usually he turns off his phone,” Jaehyun again muttered.

“you believe he turned off his phone, could have blocked you.” Sahut Andheera's.

“haha, hey, she's not that kind of girl.” Jaehyun responded by trying to force a laugh, as he was not sure Hanyoora had turned off his phone or had blocked it.

“did you bring your car?” Andheera asked abruptly halted her steps before entering into her class.

“certain.”

“borrow..” Andheera said as she reached out to Jaehyun to give her the car keys.

“me..sangly, you have a sim?” Jaehyun asked as he reached into his pants pocket and wanted to give the key to Andheera.

“no..” replied Andheera while forcibly retrieving Jaehyun's car keys before Jaehyun pulled back the key, then resumed his journey to class.

“then you can't drive Andheera.” Jaehyun exclaimed as he walked faster following Andheera into class.

Dongggs.. Dongg!! The bell in sounded.

Making Jaehyun relented to go to his stool, and stop whining asking for the key to be returned.

“padahatan not a minute bell rang, already nongol aja, very diligent anyway.” Grumpy a student in the back.

“Oke where we were yesterday?” Ask the teacher while trying page after page of a large book on his desk.

“actually what the hell are you fussing with Jaehyun?” whispered Anha while glancing a little at Andheera who was sitting on the bench right behind her.

“nothing, how are your mother and sister doing?” Ask Andheera who turned to the condition of her family who was also being mired in a complicated problem.

“ya like that, still quiet, not until when. Because my mother is not the type of person who can directly remove her teeth like you, so my mother can only be silent.”

“you insinuate me!” peekit Andheera's.

“hihihi. yes you are like that right.” Goda Anha's.

“does your mother come home from the hospital?” Ask Andheera again.

“iya, yesterday night.” the response.

“ANHA, ANDHEERA!” call the teacher because he realizes that the two students are busy chatting in the back.

Sontak Anha also immediately rose from his stool, with a sense of surprise not playing because he was found not to listen to the teacher was teaching in front. Another thing with Andheera who still seemed to sit back.

“you two work on the front now!” the command of the Mathematics teacher is complete with a tone of voice that is not at all friendly.

“aplah me.” muttered Anha who began to sweat cold because the problem written on the white board is very difficult also not only 1 or 2 questions, but 10 questions.

Given that he could not rely on Andheera in his lessons, he gulped several times because he was so nervous, he began to walk forward, followed by Andheera who walked casually behind him.

“hey, you look so relaxed Andheera.” Whisper Anha, when she saw Andheera focusing on the white board, as if she was thinking hard to find the answer.

“uhh... should be Hanyoora who is beside me now.” muttered Anha while opening the lid of the marker intending to start his war with the numbers presented to him.

“you both can give up on all these problems if you can not solve them.” said the teacher when he saw the two students seemed to have difficulty.

Because one only looks at these problems and 1 more is taking pictures and then removing it because he is not sure if the formula he uses is correct, it is uterus repeatedly.

“really?” exclaimed Anha while showing her their smile.

“in exchange, be respectful on the flagpole during my lesson.” The teacher added, making laughter inevitable.

“DIAM!” the teacher snapped to all the students who laughed at Anha and Andheera in front, accompanied by the sound of a ruler hitting on his desk, making all the students speechless.

Anha was again focused on the Math problem that was in front of her, yet Anha had time to take pictures on the white board, Andheera's arm hunted down the marker that was held by Anha. The girl then wrote down the answer with a complete process to get the results.

Not only did the closest thing to Andheera's action, but the teacher and all the other students who watched Andheera kept writing down all the answers to the questions listed on the white board, I can't believe what he saw.

Considering Andheera is a student who is not so smart is also very lazy to do PR, but can easily solve complicated problems in front just by looking at it and then immediately managed to answer all these problems.

As if he could not believe the teacher rose from his seat to confirm the truth of the answer written by Andheera. How surprised the teacher found the answer written by Andheera turned out to be all right, to make him gap also frowned.

“how is possible.” muttered Anha who silenced her mouth with her palm while continuing to look at the white board that has been filled with Andheera graffiti.

Elsewhere, apartment Bougenville.

More precisely in the kitchen of the apartment Hyunjie, he is still trying to continue to learn to cook, although so far there is no development in every cuisine, he said, but he still insisted to keep trying and trying in between the busy schedule of his service.

Until a moment later the sound of the door of his apartment opened, a sign that his only son had gone home.

“you're home, Keenan, let's have lunch, soon mama's done.” Invite him while approaching Keenan with a spatula that is still held.

“i've eaten.” Cold answer.

Yes, even though it has been a few days since his fight at the hospital made Keenan not as welcome first, he more often spent his time outside, and locked himself in a room. As if his frustration with his mother had not subsided, he looked so different from before.

“will you continue like this, Keenan?” said the mother who stopped Keenan's steps for a moment.

“doesn't mama apologize, mama didn't mean.” hasn't had time for her mother to finish her sentence Keenan again stepped foot and ignored her mother.

“MAMA!!” hyunjie snapped as Keenan held onto his room door handle, then took a deep breath before continuing his sentence.

“mama just don't understand, how can you be friends with such an abusive girl, and say the girl is more valuable than mama, Keenan.” He continued with his eyes that began to glaze over.

“i've tried to accept you as my mother, and give you a chance to be a mother, even if it's a little late. But I don't think I can live with you anymore.” He said as he pushed the door handle and entered his room.

“what do you mean Keenan?” exclaimed his mother who then followed Keenan into his room.

He saw Keenan had put a large suitcase on his bed, then intended to put all the clothes and other necessities into his large suitcase. He made his mother mist for fear that her son would leave her.

“what are you doing Keenan?

you're going? no. mama won't let you go.” Hyunjie blocked Keenan's suitcase with his body so that Keenan could not put his clothes in the suitcase.

“you should realize, you are not in a position to manage my life, you do not remember what you did to me first?

Then you suddenly came and claimed to be my real mother, no matter how heavy your problems were, it doesn't mean I can justify what you've done. Maybe if my two foster parents were still around, I wouldn't be willing to go with you back then.” He then left Hyunjie who was still blocking his son's suitcase.

As he exited his room, Keenan slammed the door of his room a sign he was really at the peak of his current fury, not managing to pack his things this time around, which was not his case, but Keenan still left his mother who was still silent in his room.

Whether just for today or if he won't be back, he just wants to quickly get out of his residence to calm his mind. As for Hyunjie, after his son slammed the door of his room.

He was slowly sitting beside his son's bed while staring at the mirror in front of him, he still could not believe if his son could be as emotional as it was when it came to the girl named Andheera.

All this time his son seemed fine, even at the beginning of their meeting, although Keenan did not really like him because he had left Keenan in an orphanage, but Keenan still can respect her as the person who gave birth to her.

But this time he really saw a new side in his son, a terrible anger when he denounced and even forbade his son to associate with the girl named Andheera.

There was actually a connection between his son and the girl, so Keenan could have been very defensive of her. And what makes him so valuable to Keenan that he can put his own birth mother aside.

The mind continued to struggle in his mind, until he felt a pain so deep piercing in his chest, a cry broke when he was no longer able to hold back the tears that he had been holding back, the painful feelings that a mother generally feels when her son prefers others over her who has struggled to give birth to her son into the world.
