章 18: 18
"Sister Dinda, and sister Nadya ..." said Ambar after knocking on the door of Nadya's and Dinda's room.
"What's the matter, Ma'am?" asked Dinda when she opened the door to her room.
"That's it, Dinda, there's Nathan outside."
After saying that, Ambar left. They were going to Dinda and Nadya, who were still busy with their textbooks. Dinda approached Nadya, then looked at Nadya with goosebumps.
"That's right, Nad. Nathan is still looking for me, he still wants me out of school," said Dinda with her glazed eyes. "He will not stop before I get out of this Airlangga school."
"Come on, Din, don't do netting yet. Who knows Nathan is here to ask how you're doing."
"For?" asked Dinda as if she still couldn't believe it. Nathan is the wrong person. That's what Dinda has in mind forever.
"Yes, because he was the one who helped you, Din. He was the one who brought you here. Maybe he felt guilty." Nadya answered.
Immediately Dinda's face turned red, and she remembered that she was not wearing any clothes at that time.
Did Nathan see her naked body?
Nadya stepped out of the boarding room into the living room on the other side. Meanwhile, Dinda followed Nadya's steps slowly. Her heart suddenly raced when she saw the figure sitting on one of the living room sofas—looking down while half bent, busy with a very thick book that had been her main focus.
Dinda, scared.
Nadya sat across from Nathan, making the boy look up. His gray eyes seemed to widen looking at Dinda. It was as if he wanted to know if Dinda was okay. It was as if he wanted to research which part of Dinda was sick. For then, he smiled faintly.
While Dinda was still standing beside Nadya, her hands were intertwined, and her face was looking down profoundly. Her body felt hot and cold, and for some reason, her fear of Nathan appeared in proportion to her fear of Panji. Whereas before, she was not afraid of this guy at all.
"Please, Nath, I beg you. Stop bothering Dinda. You know that Dinda is in the process of healing. So—"
"Who would want to annoy a little girl like her?" said Nathan, who managed to make Nadya, and Dinda looks at him.
After clearing his throat, he took a plastic bag containing two packs of food, two drinks, and fruit and put them on the table.
"I just want to give this to you, Nad. My thanks for helping take care of her. I'm sure if you haven't had breakfast, there are two. One you can give anyone, it's up to you," Nathan said.
Dinda and Nadya looked at each other, and they looked surprised to see Nathan's sudden strange behavior. However, Nadya ate the breakfast that Nathan brought, then forced Dinda to join the breakfast.
Nathan still refused to move. On the sidelines of his busy reading, he looked at Dinda, who seemed so hungry. A sweet smile tugged at the corners of his lips.
"Already?" Nathan asked as the two girls seemed to have finished their breakfast. He put the book that had been in his bag, then looked at the watch that wrapped nicely around his wrist. "I'll be in soon. Let's go together," he asked, which succeeded in making Nadya and Dinda silent again.
"I only invited Nadya, yes. But if you want to be with me, go ahead," Nathan snapped. Walk first, then followed by Nadya and Dinda.
After being outside, Nadya and Dinda chose to sit in the back. It made Nathan nag again because he felt like a driver taking two strange girls to school. But despite it all, Nathan seemed to smile again.
"You know who this handsome boy who has been in the front yard of our high school since school hours has been around?" said Sasa throwing the question to Gisel.
Actually, after the Dinda incident, Sasa and Gisel couldn't be called as close as they used to be. Their friendship was chaotic and, at times, violent. However, their sense of prestige over the pillars they carry makes them inevitably unite because none of them are willing to budge to remove their posts.
"His name is Panji. If there is Nathan here, at Wijaya Kusuma High School, there is Panji. The most famous boy in his school, and a warlord there. And do you know who he is?" repeated Sasa, which managed to make Gisel roll her eyes in embarrassment. "He is Dinda's boyfriend. So you know, at school, Dinda was not just a random girl?"
"Panji is Dinda's boyfriend?" this time, it was Regar who spoke.
Dinda, who had just entered, only glanced at them, gripped the straps of her backpack tightly, and sat down. Meanwhile, Nathan was immediately silent and busy with his cell phone.
"Yes, Panji is Dinda's boyfriend. It seems that until this moment, they are still dating. Because on Instagram, Panji is still posting a photo of the two of them with Dinda. And I think they have been dating for two years," repeated Sasa.
Dinda was silent, and she felt uncomfortable if Panji's name kept being called. Meanwhile, Nathan suddenly put down his cell phone with a loud sound, which made the students in the class silent.
"Why, Nat?" asked Regar.
However, Nathan ignored him. Then he chose to leave the class and then disappeared. While Gisel silently watched Nathan's behavior, he looked at Dinda with an increasingly burning hatred.
"Din, you know that as long as you don't go to school, a lot of unexpected things happen ..." said Selly. She looked at Selly, but she was still silent, trying to listen. "Selly had a big fight with Gisel. Even to the point of grappling in class. Then, Nathan, who seems gloomy lately. He even asked me things that were not clear. Then..."
"So what?" asked Dinda curiously.
"There's a handsome boy, it seems that he's from a well-known family, coming here to ask you all the time."
"Who, Cell?" asked Dinda. Is the guy Selly meant is Panji? Like what Sasa said just now.
"He said he's your guy. His name is Panji."
Hearing Selly's explanation, Dinda's hands suddenly turned cold. Not. How could Panji look for her after what she had done? And again, what else is Panji looking for? Is Panji still not satisfied with what she has done? Then, will Panji come here again today and look for her? Honestly, Dinda was scared if that happened.
Dinda immersed all her thoughts in Physics and Chemistry lessons. She even desperately focused her concentration despite constantly failing. And, the odd thing here is—the bench beside her, which seemed deserted. Yes, Nathan's bench. He wasn't in class for lessons. Regar said Nathan had rarely skipped school during his time here. So, where is that guy?
