*short story
RAINBOW BOY
Before I go to campus, I always
prepare for the books, headset, laptop, and dont forget for bringing food.
Before I’ve finished for preparing the stuff, Tina's alarm is ringing,
"Kariin, wakes up!" She makes me embarassing.
"I'm so crazy hearing your
shout every morning. Why don’t you greet me 'good morning honey' ", I
said.
"You are so lonely, do you
think that I'm Indomaret worker? That's why I suggest you to look for
boyfriend. hahahaha" Tina said. Boyfriend, boyfriend, and boyfriend, why I
should hear that word everytime.
Today the alley is very crowded, the
students queque for entering the small gate. But finally I reach my class. Oh
GOD, what time it's, Mrs. Jen has started the class. Directly she looks at me
so sharp like a knive when I enter the class. She is the most scaring lecturer
in my class.
When I take my note book, ah where,
where is my book? My soul like has gone. I do pray that Mrs. Jen won’t asks me
something.
"Karin, please mention 50
things that are the most important things in our life!" Mrs. Jen asks me
before I finish my praying.
I think hard. "I think just 3
things miss" I answer softly.
"what do u say? Wait for my C
score." She said angrily.
I go out the class with confuse
where my book is. I remember! I think my book was fallen in the street while I
was reading that book in the street. When I go out from the faculty, I meet a
boy. He gives me my note book and then
he goes away. I feel so surprise, and he leaves me before I say thanks. Who is
he? I never meet him before. Oh my lovely rainbow note book, you are back.
The next day, I feel weird, the boy
that gave me my rainbow note book looks at me for a long time. This is the
tenth times he always looks at me, yeah tenth times! I make myself be brave to
ask to him. "Hey you are so mysterious. Why do you always look at me? I
feel unconfortable" I ask to him.
He just said "nothing",
and gone.
For the next day I never feel that
strange thing again, but at time I see that mysterious boy is standing and
enjoy the rain. Yeah, it's raining, but is he crazy? It will make him sick and
wet! I shout to him to go inside.
Nazy, my best friend comes and
asks, "with whom u speak?"
I point to that myterious boy.
"you see? That boy is crazy, it's raining and he doesn't wanna go inside."
I tell Nazel about him.
Nazel replies, "boy? There is
no one in the street. Are you dreaming?"
I answer quickly "of course
not, that boy, standing in the street!"
That mysterious boy looks at me,
and smiles. The surprise thing, he disappears! Where is he?
Suddenly, Nazy shouts "wow, a
rainbow, beautiful! I will take that picture!"
I feel so dizzy about this
situation, my rainbow note book, and the real rainbow. Is that any relation
with that boy? Is he a rainbow angel? I ask to myself.
