Hadwan
Chapter 13: Wanting to Get to You

..."Knowing you is not a mistake, approaching you is not a will, and reaching you is the goal."...

...~~~...

After two hours in the restaurant, Iklima's parents and Ikbal's family have now completed their meeting. They have returned to their homes.

Iklima still wanted to be there, but it was impossible because it was late at night. Therefore, Iklima came home with his parents.

...****************...

The next day, Iklima again met Hadwan at school. Iklima deliberately met him because he still felt bad about what he said yesterday to the man. However, he had already received an apology from her, but did not rule out the possibility for Iklima to feel calm.

Hadwan seemed to walk alone while going down the stairs. Incidentally, Iklima saw it from a fairly close distance. Then, Iklima approached him and this time he was accompanied by his two friends.

"Where are you going?" ask Wardah because Iklima keeps walking away from himself and Naina.

Feeling unable to get an answer, Wardah no longer asked much and immediately followed the Iklima who would somehow go where.

However, after a few steps, Iklima stopped under the stairs that Hadwan was descending. Wardah and Naina are astonished by what Iklima is doing here.

"Fifth, why are we standing here?" asked Naina who managed to make Iklima avert her gaze.

"Don't ask much, let it be later" replied Iklima and looked back at the stairs.

Incidentally at that time Hadwan was already near Iklima. However, he did not greet him at all so as to make Iklima call his name.

"Hadwan," call Iklima and Hadwan immediately stopped his footsteps.

Seeing that, Iklima rushed up to him. Hadwan seemed silent to see the Iklima who already felt in front of him.

"Thank you for forgiving me" said Iklima and Hadwan just nodded his head.

Beside Iklima, Wardah and Naina listened to what Iklima had just said to Hadwan.

Iklima who again realized the existence of two of his friends immediately looked at the two and said, "You guys go first, I want to talk about something with Brother Hadwan."

Wardah and Naina looked at each other, astonished by the attitude of Iklima this time. However, Wardah quite understood and obeyed the words of Iklima.

"Good, Iklima. We go to class first" Wardah replied as he pulled Naina's hand still there.

"But Wardah ..," said Naina, she was cut off because Wardah cut her off.

"Yes, Nai later." Wardah takes Naina back from there and leaves Iklima with Hadwan.

After the departure of Wardah and Naina, Iklima again faced Hadwan. With her sweet smile, Iklima started a conversation between the two.

"Em .. after our conversation yesterday. Do I still have any hope of being your boyfriend?" ask Iklima.

"Nothing" replied Hadwan.

"A little bit?" Klima asked back.

"No" replied Hadwan still the same.

"Then there's a speck, right?" Iklima keeps trying to make Hadwan his girlfriend.

Hadwan replied, "No! How many times do you say it, my answer will still be the same."

Iklima did not give up until there, he still used another way to approach Hadwan.

"If you continue to reject me, then teach me how to be the woman that Kak Hadwan wants to be" said Iklima with a faint smile in front of Hadwan.

Iklima was silent for a few minutes and looked back at the man before him.

"If that's what you want, then teach me to be the woman of choice who can make your heart melt" said Iklima who still wants to try to approach Hadwan.

"I'm sorry, I don't have time to teach you such a thing" Hadwan retorted by walking away from the front of Iklima.

Iklima stared at Hadwan's departure with a bingbang feeling, he was increasingly curious about the young figure. From the beginning of his way of speaking, his attitude, and his behavior managed to make Iklima interested to approach him even further.

"I'll stay close to you, Hadwan." The iklima pulled the corners of its lips upwards, creating a beautiful crescent-like arch.

Moments later, Iklima returned to his class and studied as usual until the break bell rang.

Claima with her two best friends walks out of the classroom, planning on going to the cafeteria.

"Fifth, what business are you with Hadwan? To the extent that, you asked the two of us to leave you there," asked Naina who was curious about the incident this morning on the stairs near twelfth grade.

Iklima glanced at Naina at a glance, then stopped his steps.

"There's nothing, just friends" Iklima replied with a smile.

"It looks like the answer you gave is not right," said Naina seemed to think hard to make sure.

"What's wrong?" ask Adlima to Naina.

"There is no special relationship between Iklima and Hadwan" explained Naina who made Iklima widen his two beautiful eyeballs.

"Nothing!" a total of Iklima that does not want to be said like that by Naina, although in fact it has not been thought of until then also by Iklima.

"Don't lie, Iklima." Naina keeps making Iklima feel cornered.

"The truth is not a lie," said Iklima and Wardah had started to believe him, while Naina had not.

"Correct?" ask Naina back.

"Nai, already. Pity Iklima if you keep giniin. It's a lot of time, too, leaving us short of the way, because I'm hungry" said Wardah and Naina stopped interrogating the Claima.

A few hours later, after a break, the school bell rang loudly. This time Wardah and Naina went home first from Iklima, while Iklima was just waiting for his father to pick him up.

However, from a distance Iklima saw Hadwan walking. His interest in the man, managed to make Iklima hypnotized with attitude and speech, he said.

Until the moment you want to pass it, Hadwan still keep his eyes. Iklima who felt curious, without realizing it he continued to look at the man.

Too focused on seeing Hadwan, the girl did not realize that behind her was a fish pond. So, the more Iklima retreats, the closer also Iklima with the pool.

The more Hadwan approached, the feeling of Iklima became unbecoming. Until a second later, Iklima continued to retreat. And suddenly Iklima lost his balance, then his body went into a fish pond that had a beautiful fountain on it.

"Ah, please." Iklima asked for help because he could not get out of the fish pond.

Hadwan who saw that, did not just stay still and immediately rushed to help Iklima who was a little troubled out of the pool. However, Hadwan was hesitant to hold the hand of Iklima, but because the emergency situation requires Hadwan to do that to help Iklima.

So that way, Hadwan also thrust his right hand to help Iklima.

"Behold my hand" said Hadwan.

Iklima who desperately needed help, just hold Hadwan's right hand. Iklima does not answer with speech, but accepts with action.
