YOU OR I ARE THIRD!!
The meeting of Arnam and Sapphira

Now Arnam was silent with eyes that kept staring at Sapphira.

Suddenly Arnam remembered his first meeting with Sapphira and the others.

Flashbacks

At that time, Arnam, who was about 10 years old, was hitting Reno violently.

“Apologies no?!!”arnam said arrogantly to Reno who was also the same age as him.

“Roni help me”ucap Reno ask for help to Roni who is slightly older than him.

Roni, who was initially silent, eventually helped against Arnam, he intended to defend Reno, but in the end he was also defeated by Arnam.

Rey who was a little younger among the three of them, he who saw it began to fear when Arnam hit his two friends.But when Rey wanted to run, Arnam even hit Rey to scream.

“Please!, help me anyone,Safira Salma help me”ucap Rey scared, she knows if she is a coward for asking a woman for help, but make no mistake, for Rey Safira and Salma will help her, he said,because they are both brave.

...*****...

Somewhere else.

Safira and Salma were playing guessing not far from Rey and the others, they both heard the screams, and looked at each other.

“Why else is Rey?”salma asked Safira, and her voice sounded dislikeful to Rey.

It seems like indeed from small Salma and Rey never familiar, but they are quite close.“I don't know, we samperin aja”ajak Safira on Salma.

“Nevent try, he is a man, the habit is always asking for help to us who are women.Indeed we can what?”salma sounded complaining.

“What's wrong, we'll see first, you're not curious?”said Safira who was curious about Rey's current state.

“Ya already let's samperin”finally Salma agreed with Safira's proposal.

The two of them immediately walked towards Rey's voice.When they arrived, Safira and Salma looked surprised at the scene in front of him.

Arnam who now looks like a bad boy, he continues to hit Rey who is crying, while Roni and Reno are just silent with expressions that look in pain, they both look bruised and a little bloody on his face.

“Hiks..Salma Safira help me”ucap Rey with an expression that looks very pity, she continues to weld towards Sapphira and Salma who are sculpting.

And it is precisely because it is what makes Arnam more angry and continues to hit Rey.Arnam does not like to see men crybaby, especially timid like Rey, Rey,so he beat Rey longer than others.

“Hey stop, bad boy basics!”shouts Safira who immediately makes Arnam stop hitting Rey.

Salma who was beside Sapphira, she also directly stared at Safira.“Safira, we better just go yuk, just let the three of them be like that,

after all this is their business, Salma, who is afraid that Sapphira will be beaten.

At that time Arnam was quite adept at fighting, and the blow must have hurt if it hit the face, seeing that Sapphira felt love for Rey, he was actually a little afraid of seeing Arnam's brutal behavior, Arnam said,but Rey is his friend.

“Don't!, you don't remember when we were bullied by our friends, they're the one who helped us, now we have to bear them in this way”prevent Safira when Salma was about to pull him away,it sounds reminiscent.

Either because Salma and Safira do not have female friends in the school.Perhaps because Safira and Salma are smart and diligent students,that is the reason why Salma and Safira are only close friends with Rey who is a classmate, and Roni and Reno who are different schools from them are also friends because of the accidental help.

“But you are not afraid of being hit?, is it sick”ucap Salma sounding worried.

“No!, I'm sure if he's a real man he should never hit a woman”sap Safira that sounds insinuating.The attitude and tone of his voice sounds mature, if in fact he was a child.

Although Sapphira said she was not afraid of Arnam, but Arnam knew that Sapphira was frightened, as evidenced by her sweaty hands and a slight trembling.

Arnam was just silent while staring at Safira who was then eight years old.He looked calm when staring at Safira.

“Hey,why are you silent!, you don't want to apologize to the friends you've hit that”Cap Safira a little screamed in anger.

“For what I apologized to her, she just didn't apologize to me!”answer Arnam flat.

“Indeed what did they do until you hit them?”ask Safira directly.

“You saw this”ucap Arnam while showing the robot toy he was carrying.

Looks robot toy is slightly damaged because part of his leg is broken.Meski Actually Arnam does not care about the toy robot,because from childhood he was banned by his mother to behave like children in general.Arnam has been trained to be mature at an early age, but still he really appreciates the toy, but still he really appreciates the toy,because it was a gift from his first friend.

“Yes I saw it, keep why?”safira asked not to understand.

“That friend of yours has ruined this toy!.He also did not want to apologize for being guilty”ucap Arnam explained in a tone that sounded flat and disliked when saying that.

“Only because of this did you hit them?!”tanya Safira couldn't believe it.

“True Safira, he is childish!, the time is only because the toy is damaged, he must hit me.If it is broken you just say how much the item is worth, let me change it!”reno said sounding haughty while enduring the pain in his hands.

“Not just because of that, for me if he damages this item by accident I will forgive.

But he instead insulted this toy, who is he?!, he did not know how difficult it was for others to make money just for the sake of giving this toy to me.

Because Reno did not want to be blamed, he insulted the toy.Maybe the toy does not mean anything to Arnam, but the good intentions of the person who gave the toy that Arnam really appreciated.

Sapphira who heard the story, she knew very well how to appreciate the gift of others.Because it is the type of person who immediately accepts the gift of others, even if he does not like it, the most important thing for Sapphira is his intention, which is his intention,even if the item he does not like, if his intentions are sincere then Safira will accept.

“Iya I was wrong”ucap Reno who finally admitted his mistake.

“Then you have to apologize”ucap Safira sounds like an order.

“But he was also wrong.” replied Reno who refused to apologize.

“Basic Reno!, you don't know what if admitting a mistake is a commendable act, and if you have admitted your mistake and apologized it is a wise act!”safira said like an old man.

“Iya, I'm sorry”ucap Reno slightly forced.

“If from earlier you say like that, maybe I will not hit”ucap Arnam with his flat face.

“You also have to apologize, you are also wrong”ucap Safira who is now staring at Arnam.

Arnam who heard that, he seemed to be silent as if he was reluctant to apologize, because Arnam had never apologized to anyone.

“Come, you also blame, what's wrong with apologizing.”ucap Safira sounds persuasive.

Usually Arnam will refuse it, but somehow when he saw the gaze of Sapphira who looks firm and brave, he also seemed to get an urge to apologize.

“Yes I was wrong, so sorry”ucap Arnam flat sounds unusual apologize.

Arnam did that not because he was afraid of Sapphira's gaze, but he only wanted to do that because of the impulse of his heart that seemed to say that he would obey the will of the girl in front of him.

“Well now the problem is done, so we can be at peace right?”said Safira who now smiled brightly.

Since that incident, Arnam began to befriend Sapphira and others.And it was the first meeting for Sapphira with Arnam.

Some day.

At that time, in between his training, Arnam met Sapphira and the others.

“Why are you?, kayak kayak not cheerful?”sapphira asked plainly at Arnam beside her.

The two of them were now sitting on an iron swing, with Safira looking engrossed in swinging her swing casually,while Arnam just sat down without moving his swing at all.They both seemed to be watching Rey and the others who were playing the slide.

Arnam who heard the question from Sapphira, he immediately turned his head and looked towards Safira with a look of wonder.Isn't that his expression, from the beginning they met it was already like that his expression, was,that is flat and indifferent.

“Indeed what happened to my facial expression?”ask Arnam not to understand.

“You never laugh when we're joking, even smiling never.Neither tired ya face like it continues?”said Safira plain with questions.

“Not from the beginning was like this my expression.So what's the problem?”ask Arnam stick with his flat face.

According to him laughing, angry, sad, or smiling was a waste of energy for him.So all this time, he was just being indifferent and flat.

Angry and as sad as he was, then his facial expression remained flat and indifferent.Even Arnam had never felt sad and angry all this time, so he did not know how to express it all.

“You ask what the problem is?.Yes, I was just surprised, want to know how you expression when laughing or smiling, that's just how you answer plain Safira.

“Not important!, that's just a waste of energy!”replied Arnam indifferently revealing what he was thinking at the moment.

“Hah?, not important?.Precisely if we can express our expressions well, it is better.Because then we can vent the emotions we feel, like this.”ucap Safira while pointing at an angry expression that looks cute, like this,sad, sad, smiling.

“Gimana?, great right me in showing exception?, not suitable to be an artist?,hi.hi..”ucap Safira ended with a laugh that giggled as if funny with his words.

At that moment, Arnam who saw Sapphira laughing freely because of pleasure, he seemed to see the laughter of Sapphira like a bright shining sun, very bright.As if his dark life could be bright just by looking at Sapphira laughing.

“Teach me!”said Arnam suddenly with a tone that sounded firm.

Sapphira who heard that, she immediately stopped her laughter.

“Ha?, what?”safira asked not to understand.

“Yes, teach me to show you the expression you said and showed earlier!”arnam said confidently, as if his words sounded to contain passionate belief.

Sapphira was only silent for a moment because of daydreaming, but in the end he replied.“Well then”ucap Safira who is confused must answer what.He is not sure will be able to teach Arnam, because the expression is usually shown naturally, without having to be learned right?.

And since then, Safira and Arnam became very close, so that finally Arnam could show his facial expression, Arnam,but unfortunately all his facial expressions can only be shown to Sapphira.Because it includes Arnam's wishes that only want and will show all his facial expressions in front of Safira only.Entah it laughs, smiles, sad, happy, happy,except to be angry, it was the expression that Arnam would show to the man who wounded his Sapphira.

End Flashback.

When aware of his daydream, Arnam immediately looked at Safira with a confident and confident expression.

“I will try to find a way that you want to hear my explanation, because that way you will definitely understand a little bit”ucap Arnam sure.He will do everything possible to keep Sapphira with him,and of course in Arnam's own way.
