My car drove across the still-deserted streets. Although the sun began to crawl up, the atmosphere this morning was not too crowded. Apparently this Sunday people are reluctant to move outside the house, but it's a good thing for me who just learned to drive a car. This morning I took my own car to a futsal place, papa let me bring my own car as long as it is with Mayra. I was forced to accept that requirement than I had to be escorted by the driver. Mayra kept raving asking me to increase the speed of the car, obviously I refused the request raw. I am still a beginner after all it is not good to drive a vehicle at full speed, it can endanger the safety of myself and others. My car stopped when the lights were red. Two little buskers knocked on the windshield and started singing when I opened it. Both of them sang with passion even though the sound of a small guitar played was incompatible with his voice. How unfortunate the fate of these two boys in front of me, at the age of the very young already have to fight with the rigors of life. Maybe I have never felt the rigors of life that many people call but I can see with my eyes on the streets that I often meet. My mother has also taught me since childhood about the dynamics of the world that are hard for someone and happy for others. The two child buskers finished the song when the red light seconds remained a little. I smiled in praise of them, then handed them a few pieces of money,
" Sister, this much is serious for us ?" I nodded making them smile broadly, though,
" Thank you very much, brother, thank you, "They passed running around laughing while leaving my car which also darted when the light was green.
Mayra looked at me strangely without commenting as usual, I know what her gaze meant,
" We have to help fellow Mayra, especially with the advantages we have not everyone as lucky as us, "Hearing that he just let out a long sigh not to return my words, he said,
leaning himself into the car seat.
I know this is a little taboo for Mayra and my other family. In generations our family is already rich, you could say we have never felt the difficulties economically as many people complain. My father was one of the lucky ones to understand the condition of others in distress than his other brother after knowing my mother. My mother comes from a fairly simple family but she always helps her fellow man as long as he is able to make my father's heart melt in her, even though my mom died 10 years ago, my dad didn't want to change my mom's position with anyone else. I wish I could find someone who loves me as much as my mom.
Fifteen minutes drive from my house I finally arrived at the futsal place. There Rafael and his friends came first. A few minutes later my other friend came in behind. With other friends I went down to Rafael and greet one by one his friends, one of which attracted my attention was Nathan. He smiled so faintly that it was almost invisible when shaking hands with me. Mayra whispered to me after she greeted Nathan,
" Vin, did you see that cold man in glasses, he didn't smile at all at me when his other friends seemed very enthusiastic shaking hands with me, " In my heart I said of course Nathan wouldn't smile at Mayra, with me knowing he didn't smile.
Though I thought that by giving me a bracelet that time would make his attitude turn more friendly to me in fact he was just as cold only now that his spicy mouth no longer blasphemed me, I really don't know his weird mindset and I don't care. Arya's sister approached asking for futsal equipment to be removed from the back seat of my car to make myself immediately rush to forget the daydream about Nathan. With the help of other friends I began to lower one by one equipment, ranging from futsal clothing, consumption and other supporting things. After all the preparations were completed, the futsal game between OSIS Smansa and Smada began. Those of us who did not participate in the match, became cheering spectators. This activity I admit is very effective to increase the familiarity of my OSIS High School and OSIS High School Rafael. We can immediately blend in without caring about the barriers of school differences, encouraging each other who are playing. Mayra who is not an OSIS manager without feeling awkward blending in with my OSIS High School friend and Rafael's friend. He even cheered the most frenzied among others in support of my friends and occasionally mentioned the name Rafael and Nathan as a cold boy that is not understood by others. Before the game began, Mayra had hysterically whispered to me when she saw Nathan down on the field without using his glasses,
" Oh my God Melvin, I can't breath looking him, the boy so handsome, I didn't expect in a folk school this kind of squat to be stored shining diamonds like Rafael and the cold glasses," I laughed at his babbling, though,
" You think I'm at home at school because of what it is because this is the sensation, "I joked in response to Mayra,
" Look at Melvin, he like a bad boy behind the glasses, rarely find one like that, do you know who he is ?" Mayra clasped my hand tightly, so as not to scream at Nathan combing his hair with his fingers,
" So you like him yeah, he's Nathan, Rafael's deputy on OSIS, be careful if you like him, he never smiles and his words are spicy like chili, " I said it made Mayra smile to herself,
" Truely my type, I should get him at all costs, "His murmur while leaning on my shoulder continued to look at Nathan.
Ten minutes of the game began, my OSIS goal had been broken by Rafael. The kick was so loud that my friend Bintang could not hold it, I was amazed to see Rafael's skill in this sport. When he was competing like this, he looked many times more cool, handsome, and very manly. The sweat has flowed profusely making the t-shirt used attached to the body print the shape of his sex body, Mayra whispered again to me, Mayra whispered again,
" You're a smart cousin to choose a guy, Rafael looks very cool and handsome especially with sweat pouring from his body, looks very sexy, "Mayra laughs giggly pinch my cheeks fatigued, and,
" But even so, my cold boy is better, look at that how he dribbles, keeps the ball, the ball he takes care of let alone me when it's his, "Let's go, I rolled my eyeballs hearing the words of the dreaded Mayra that had been learned somewhere.
After a few minutes of playing Rafael continued to pound the defense of my friends mercilessly, repeatedly he broke into the goal of the Star. Rafael seems to be the star of the field in this game, my heart warms and thumping even more at how perfect he is. When the long whistle sounded, OSIS Rafael got a victory with a score of 11-3 where seven goals scored Rafael and the rest of his friends including Nathan. I approached Rafael to give me a drink I had prepared specially from home. But my steps stopped when I saw a girl first approach him and give drinks to Rafael, the short-haired girl very flirtatious praising the prowess of Rafael on the field who was met with a smile by Rafael. My heart cannot accept seeing that flirtatious girl get a sweet smile Rafael, that smile can only be shown to me one, not for any girl in the whole world even Mayra can not get it. Mayra approached me not accepting the disgusting sight,
" Ih....***** that's so disgusting, I can't accept seeing his ludicrous attitude towards Rafael, Vin, you should act immediately !" Mayra was right, I had to take action to make the beautiful flirtatious girl not to the end of my nails get away from Rafael.
I stepped closer to those who were still chatting, with great confidence I let out all the aura of authority and dominated me. Seeing my arrival Rafael's attention was immediately distracted by me, a victory step I had already obtained.
" Hi ..... Rafael, what a wonderful game, I was actually giving you this, but I see you've got it from the others, so it's okay to take it home again," I said smiling as sweetly as possible to cover up the anger that felt so sweet, the helmet-haired girl began to look at me cynically,
" Yes, there is no need to take Melvin home again, I still want to accept with pleasure, I feel still thirsty, " Exactly what I thought, just like that, Rafael took a bottle of drink from my hand and started drinking it, I knew he wouldn't refuse anything from me,
" Raphael, Aunt Jasmine also said hello to you apologizing for that time, in fact she now really likes if you invite me to walk again, he was very impressed with your polite attitude and wished I could take you to his wedding the day after tomorrow, "I told him with a lie in part that Aunt Jasmine apologized to Rafael but the rest of it was true,
" Is that true Melvin, of course I'm very honored to come to his wedding especially with you, "Rafael's words beat the flirtatious girl without me - hard to drop her.
I smiled with satisfaction at the sight of his red face feeling himself ignored by the two of us. However, I have not finished sending a slap so that he knows who he has dared to play with,
" Raphael, I always wear this beautiful necklace, not a second apart from my neck, again thank you yes, this is the most beautiful gift I've ever gotten, " I took out the pendant necklace from behind my shirt looking happily,
Melvin is always the winner, always the number one.
" Rafa let's go, I'll introduce my cousin who just moved from the USA !" Rafael is following me.
I kept walking with Rafael to Mayra who was busy attracting Nathan's attention, manipulatively pretending to hit Nathan and groaning in pain. But his name is also Nathan, no matter how Mayra tries as hard as possible to pretend, he will still not react to what is even Mayra sprayed with words - the word spicy.
" When that way his eyes are also used to see !" Nathan looked at the crouching Mayra holding her knee,
" A...I was wrong, I shouldn't come here if it's just everyone's reproach, hiks...hiks...mom and I Miss u, " Mayra cried and Nathan remained unmoved,
" Well even cry, it's hard drama, you don't why - why !" Nathan looked at Mayra as if she was stifled with a bent face making her look even more heartless.
The other friends just saw the incident without anyone daring to interfere, they were afraid of being exposed to the spicy mouth spray Nathan.
As a result of Mayra's acting I also had to get involved in the game of falsehood, there was no way I was indifferent to seeing my cousin cry, others would think badly of me.
" Mayra why are you crying, Nathan what have you done to my cousin ?" Although I'm actually very irritated to play this kind of role, I honestly also want to laugh at Nathan's confused face change, too,
" Oh..so this cunning girl is your cousin, just as potent, "he said back to me with a spicy mouth, I realized that the name of the character can not be changed by anyone if not from within yourself,
" Keep your words Nathan, Mayra can't cry if you're okay, what have you done ?" I went on to defend Mayra, help her stand up,
" It's true that I didn't do anything, he hit me himself and suddenly cried, "Nathan clung to his stance, I realized that even though I tried to corner him, it wouldn't work because Nathan was innocent,
" What's true is Mayra, there seems to be a misunderstanding here, you better apologize Mayra, it's useless because Nathan won't apologize, " Finally the drama Mayra finished with he apologized even before that he had time to give the code did not want but I managed to force with the threat that I whispered to him that Nathan would hate him if he did not want to apologise.
Fortunately it did not have a long impact on my friendship and Nathan, after that Nathan can still chat with me and Rafael as if a few minutes ago nothing happened.
After a very interesting conversation with Rafael, Nathan and other friends. We disperse ourselves home. I invited Rafael and Nathan to lunch together but was rejected by Nathan on the grounds that he was in a hurry. Hearing that, Mayra bent her face feeling the opportunity to be able to linger - long with Nathan vanished. As a result Mayra became my mosquito repellent and Rafael during lunch. We ate at the Scandinavian restaurant that Rafael and I used to visit. Mayra did not comment anything about this restaurant, even during the meal her gaze was always glaring out the window as if her soul was somewhere else. Rafael apparently noticed Mayra's unfocused movements, he said,
" Mayra, is there a problem, or do you not like this place ?" Rafael rebuked Mayra who was still silent not to hear, I elbowed her until she gasped in shock,
" Eh...iya what ?" He looked at me and Rafael was confused,
" You are dreaming of May, until you don't hear Rafael's question !" My rebur that he responded by scratching his nape that was not itchy ,
" Yes.I'm sorry, so it's ruining the atmosphere, there's something I'm thinking about, I'll let you go home first yeah, you guys just continue the lunch, Rafael please take Melvin later, the car I'll take, okay good bye guys, have a nice launch !" Mayra passed away leaving me and Rafael staring at each other in confusion.
After that, we continued to have a nice lunch without discussing the oddity that Mayra had just done.
I arrived at my house in the afternoon. When I arrived, I found my room empty without Mayra. When I asked my maid and security guard they said that Mayra had not come home. I tried to call him a few times but his number was off. My anxiety increased by nightfall and there was no bright spot where Mayra was. I went through my veranda, there were some big size photos posted. The most marginal photo is a big family photo of Wijaya, besides a photo of myself who is still a toddler with papa and mama next picture of me who is a teenager only with papa. For a moment I looked at the last photo, my heart asked why my mother left me so quickly. I remember very well at that time, my mother was very sick for months in the hospital and one morning my house was visited by many people with my father who hugged me when I just woke up. I who did not understand it was just silent to see all the sadness of adults, I just cried to realize my mother was gone forever when she saw her corpse planted in the ground. As long as my mother was sick no one ever told me, she just said she was staying somewhere else, which I now know is a hospital, she said, mom and dad always said that mom would come home one day. I also just found out about my mom's illness when I found my mom's health report on my desk three years ago, how broken my heart was when I found out my mother had a malignant cancer that could never be cured. I smiled wryly considering the piece of that pitiful incident. My daydream was caved when my phone vibrated displaying Mayra's name on her screen. I picked up the phone immediately.
" Hello Mayra, where are you ?" I said with a slightly raised tone.
Mayra answered from across the street in a loud, vibrating voice whistling at me, causing me to flinch and almost drop my phone.
