Rainy
Chapter 27
Photos of Aksa and Rainy on the school's instagram got hundreds of likes in just two hours. Bagas exclaimed furiously after seeing how the pose Aksa and Rainy were doing.
“I call him dashing and passionate,” Bagas chirps still while staring at the photo on his phone.
“Excited anjir,” Dylan held back his laughter.
Aksa looked annoyed at the two friends, then glanced at Rainy who was also like him. Both did not expect that the photo would be posted on the school's instagram.
Ardi hit Aksa's arm which was on the table, making Aksa turn her head while raising her chin. His expression seemed to ask, 'what?'
“Jawab my question!”
“Which one?” Aksa forgot, probably because he was too busy observing the reactions of his other friends.
“When are you guys taking the photo?”
“Oh, it was a few days ago, I forgot what day,” said Aksa, when in fact he still remembers. When Rainy got sick on Monday.
“But both of you seem to fit so much anjay! Udah, meningan you guys become real boyfriends. Kan every day also leave together, neighbors too!” chirps Alika.
Rainy almost choked again if he was swallowing food. The girl looked at Alika with a look of horror. While Aksa snorted but the gaze kept on Rainy.
“Bene! But not the speed? Did they just meet for a few weeks, the time has been dating?” timpal Dylan.
“Kalo love do not see how long have you met. Aksa and Rainy were once childhood friends! So it's not strange, isn't it, Rai?” Vania looked at Rainy with a seductive look.
But the girl remained serious with the food already running out. As if he had not heard what his friends were talking about.
“Gue support lo if you want to shoot Mbak Rain, I help deh!” bagas said while patting Aksa on the shoulder several times.
Aksa brushed off Bagas' hand, before long Aksa gasped as Rainy suddenly stood up from his seat.
“Gue to toilet first,” says Rainy.
When Rainy left, Aksa wanted to catch up, but because he did not want to be made into his friends again Aksa chose to stay in place, but …
“No follow, Sa?” Bagas raised both of his eyebrows teasing Aksa.

Rainy goes to the toilet to avoid his friends, the girl goes into the toilet cubicle and closes it. After which he raised his face and sighed violently.
Rainy raised his hand to fan his hot face, not since when but Rainy felt his face was reddened now.
“Aahh! I why the hell?” grouse Rainy.
Hearing the teasing of her friends made Rainy remember her closeness to Aksa lately. Which makes Rainy's heart race fast.
Now, Rainy's hand moved to feel her chest to feel her heartbeat. It was pounding so hard, only this time did Rainy feel this kind of feeling.
“Gue why, huh? Yesterday I liked Aksa?” ask Rainy who, because he won't get any answers there.
After a while, Rainy opted out of the toilet cubicle, about to step out, but Rainy heard someone's voice and mentioned his name in the person's conversation.
“Kok can Rainy photos semesra the same Aksa without me knowing? You also Win! I don't know at all!”
“Gue doesn't know either, Wid! When they are photos, suddenly already posted on IG school.”
Rainy saw two people who turned out to be Vienna and Widya, both of whom were looking to fix the makeup that had worn off.
Not wanting to meet the two made Rainy try to go quietly without making a sound, but the large mirror still displays a reflection of himself making the two chilies can see it.
“Win! That's the guy!”
Rainy cursed in his heart, he did not want to stop stepping but his arm was strangled by Vienna, friends and Widya's men.
“Please!” Rainy tried to pull his hand but failed.
“No! Mumpung lo here, can we chat bentar.” Widya grinned but did not scare Rainy.
“Yes, what do you want to say? But let go of my hands first!”
After Widya released her hand, Rainy immediately took a step back. Meanwhile, Widya crossed paths while continuing to stare intensely at Rainy.
“Lo is actually related to Aksa? A boyfriend? Ngaku lo!”
Rainy rolled his eyes. “Not a lo affair!”
“My business is! I like Aksa, so I want you not to hold him together,” Widya said with emphasis.
“Kalo Aksa who deket same me how?” Rainy raised one corner of his lips.
Widya's gaze turned even sharper, she clasped Rainy's wrist again stronger than before.
“That's because of lo that gatel!”
The longer, Rainy felt more pain in his wrist. When he pulled her hand, Widya clutched even more firmly.
“Please!”
“Lo has been warned but not heard. Want to use hardness?”
“Gue can report you to teacher BK.”
The thing Rainy could not avoid was the same treatment even though he had moved to a new place. He is not wrong, but always the object of blame, making himself a place of impingement. They did without thinking about what Rainy was feeling.
Luckily the incident only happened for a few seconds, because after that suddenly Alika and Vania came to separate them.
“Please stop me Anjin*!” Vania pushed Widya hard until the jubai came off.
Rainy staggered and was instantly captured by Alika. His head was throbbing, but Rainy kept trying to stand up straight.
“Lo not papa?” worried Alika asked, Rainy shook her head and smiled.
At least, Rainy could still be grateful because in a different place, Rainy was defending. He wasn't alone in dealing with the crazy people who hurt him.
“Gue report both to teacher, let me know the taste!” threaten Vania who is still emotionally ignited because Widya hurt Rainy.
“Basic cepu! It does play report.” Widya sneers.
“Why? Lo scared?” Vania looked at Widya sharply.
“It's my business same temen lo! No need to interfere.”
Widya went from there, followed by Vienna who always faithfully tailed behind her. Without guilt, while near Rainy, Widya nudges Rainy hard enough that Rainy is pushed aside.
“Woy Anjin*! Bangsattt lo!” Alika cursed with anger.

“Bome with me!”
It is not a request, but an order. Rainy looked at Aksa who was already standing in front of him while Rainy himself was still sitting on his stool. The rest of the class had gone home, with Rainy staying as usual, working on his new PR.
It's just that Rainy didn't think that there was still Aksa there. And waiting for him too?
“Lo not training?” ask Rainy.
“Ngak. Take a break first, a full week of training? Cape dong!” Aksa chuckles.
Rainy stood up from his seat and stepped away, ignoring Aksa who was catching up to him from behind. Aksa is now next to Rainy.
“I'm going home?”
“Eum .. according to lo?” Rainy asked instead, funny Aksa even frowned in confusion and before long the guy smiled broadly.
“Yes with lah!”
Rainy smiled and nodded. They were still in the corridor of the school, just down the stairs to go downstairs.The school was already a bit quiet, leaving only the children of OSIS and a few waiting for an invitation.
“Gue curious,” says Aksa.
“What?” Rainy looked at Aksa.
“So the time of Vania Sama Alika nyulus lo why their faces tangled so much? You are also like a person has passed out, hold a mulu head. Lo sick? Out of fight?”
Rainy was silent, apparently Aksa realized that. After Widya left there, Rainy's two friends were about to go report. But, Rainy prevented it.
Not because of helplessness or fear, but Rainy just did not want to add trouble for him in the future. Luckily Vania and Alika want to understand Rainy, although their feelings are still arrogant but they try to act ordinary.
“No! I'm not papa. Feelings aja time,” kilah Rainy.
Unfortunately, Aksa was quite sensitive. No matter how Rainy's face looks now, Aksa still knows there's something the girl is hiding. But Aksa still nodded her head because she did not want to force Rainy to speak.
Arriving home, Rainy rushed into his room and changed clothes. Aunt Risa's not home, probably on a date with Abra. When Rainy came out of the house, Rainy looked at Aksa who was washing his motorcycle.
“Where are you going?” aksa asked a little scream.
“Ih! Kepo!” the answer that made Aksa upset.
“Gue anterin, yes!”
“Neither! The motor is washed again. Wet lastar me.”
“Kan can be on lap.”
Rainy still shook his head, rejecting Aksa's offer. The guy clucked but couldn't do anything. There's nothing to force Rainy.
At first Rainy thought everything was safe, he could work quietly as usual. But, just before the time to go home, Azura suddenly came to him, and said, “Rainy, there was someone else who nyariin you.”
“Who, Brother?” rainy asked confused.
Rainy felt he had no appointments with anyone.
“No idea, but he's a guy. Sakep, anyway! Hehe.” Azura chuckled, and it rubbed off on Rainy who was also chuckling despite wondering who was looking for her.
After tidying up his belongings, Rainy told Azura and the others to go home first. When he opened the door of the cafe, Rainy was startled by the presence of someone who was already staring at him sharply.
“Aksa?”
