The After The Rain

The After The Rain
The Rumours


Throughout the course, Kinara could not focus on Mr. Hadi explaining the material through the projector screen because the students who attended the morning class were busy whispering to each other. No exception Dahayu who followed by whispering a few sentences into his ear every time the woman finished looking at her phone.


"The news reached the ears of the manager. Looks like Layla's getting kicked out of college, huh."


Kinara glanced at Dahayu who was whispering with her eyes still focused on the phone screen. After that, Kinara switched to looking at one by one students who sat not far from him. Almost everyone does the same thing. Their focus was split between the phone screen and the projector screen, as well as Mr. Hadi who occasionally turned his head to check where the faint-sounding whispers came from.


Luckily Mr. Hadi is not a typical lecturer killer who will spit out all his anger to the students just because of trivial problems. In addition, the man in his late forties may have also heard the news circulating so he had no choice but to let his students talk about it.


"What if it was Layla?" amid the cynical whispers that were thrown from the lips of other students, maybe only Kinara could still think positively about Layla. The proof alone, thanks to his question, he was awarded a plot by Dahayu.


"The myopic also knows that it's Layla, Ra." Sinis Dahayu's. I swear to God he's upset. His best friend this one is too positive thinking so people. Things that make Dahayu often inflamed because in the end that attitude that makes Kinara much harmed.


"Cowokhat?" now Kinara fully turned to Dahayu who was sitting to his left. "Who's cowboy? What punishment will he get?"


Being asked such a question, Dahayu was silent. Also true. Why didn't he think to find out who the man in the viedo was perverted with Layla? Why did they just focus on Layla and blaspheme the woman?


"Just look, I'll see."


"Yes!" Kinara scaly with great emphasis, trying not to let his voice out and create a stir. He held Dahayu who wanted to play back the perverted video. This wood is sometimes other.


"So you know who's the guy in the video, right? This is I want to see."


"Not now dong, Ay. You want to make everyone think of us?"


Dahayu dropped her phone back.


"Udah, mending you save your hape. Now we focus first on the eyes of the lecture Mr. Hadi." Kinara grabbed Dahayu's phone and put it in her best friend's bag.


Ignoring the whispers that were still happening, Kinara refocused her gaze forward. Pak Hadi's course will be completed in fifteen minutes, and he won't waste the material being delivered on something that isn't really his business at all.


Next to her, Dahayu can only resign when her spirit as an impromptu detective is broken by Kinara. Finally, with the ogah-ogahan Dahayu also pay attention to the projector screen in front.


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


After finishing the first class, there was a thirty minute break before heading to the second class. Just when Mr. Hadi left the classroom and his figure disappeared behind the turn, the atmosphere of the class suddenly became boisterous. Whispers that originally only sounded like an imperceptible whirlwind, now began to sound like the hum of a herd of bees patrolling for honey.


Kinara felt her head throb. He is not a typical person who can be in too noisy situations. His introverted nature immediately roared for rescue.


And so, before anything worse happened, Kinara got up from her chair. Snatched the goodie bag and immediately pulled Dahayu's hand to come with her.


The one that was pulled by his hand could only surrender. Unlike usual where Dahayu will throw endless protests, this time the woman seems to obey Kinara because she knows the condition of her best friend.


"We're going to the bentar perpus, huh, Ay?" asked Kinara after releasing her hand from Dahayu's arm. They were now in the hallway near the classroom, the humming sound of the earthy chatter in the classroom was no longer heard and Kinara felt her head start to lighten up a bit.


"Yes." Yeah." Dahayu answered briefly.


Arriving at the library, Kinara immediately looked for a seat at the end near a large glass window overlooking a small garden next to the campus. In the park, there are usually many other faculty children who spend the afternoon in the shade of Flamboyan trees that thrive while waiting for the twilight to slowly rise. And since it was still early morning, Kinara would naturally not find anyone there.


At first Kinara sat down, opposite Dahayu who began to focus again on her phone screen.


Until suddenly there was a commotion coming from the entrance of the library. Kinara did not know what was happening, but just knew the atmosphere in the library that was originally quiet and conducive suddenly turned noisy. The guard officer in his place also could not do much because his voice was defeated by the voices of other students who were louder and domineering.


"It's a lot of noise, Anjir!" Dahayu straightened her back, glancing cynically at the swarm of female students who had just entered the library.


"Don't bacot dong! Don't you know this is a library?!" yelled Dahayu at the group of students who were just ignored by them.


"Well, what a bitch are those village girls." Grouse Dahayu.


While Dahayu was angry at the group of female students who had just come to bring the commotion, Kinara began to hear other whispers coming from behind the bookshelves beside their seats.


Kinara sharpened his hearing, trying to capture the conversation that was going on between those few people better and clearly.


"Crazy, I still can't believe that Layla the pious is a bastard too."


"His hood is long until his stomach, his brain is short."


"Gue if he was, had already jumped from the medical faculty building kali. Shame, anjir."


"How did his parents feel, huh? It must be really sad not to see his daughter like that?"


"Gue Denger-denger, his parents have been divorced from doi is still a baby and he lives with nyokapnya. It makes no sense if he becomes a father figure in another man to be willing to do what includes rapping video like that?"


"That's called a moron!"


"But pity also squirms. He's the only one who's been berated by people, but the guy in the video with him is safe."


And many more. Kinara decided to stop eavesdropping because the sentences coming out of their next lips were already too evil and could not be accepted. Though the sentences were not intended for her, but somehow Kinara felt her heart ache.


"Ay," call Kinara slowly.


Dahayu who was sitting opposite her and was still grumbling about the noisily female student who ignored her reprimand immediately turned her head until their gazes met. "What?"


"Report, yuk? It's noisy in here."


Dahayu did not answer. But the girl immediately got up and pulled Kinara's hand. While glaring a cynical look at the group of female students who were looking for her because of her earlier, Dahayu led Kinara out of the library.


While Kinara again felt his head feel dizzy and his stomach a little nauseous.
