A Light After Dark
Suspicious

The man kept walking, but his gaze could not be separated from Chayra. At that time he also took steps to approach Chayra who was sitting together with his best friend. Until Chayra, Chayra ignored his presence. Although his two best friends had told Chayra to turn to the side. But it seems Chayra doesn't want to do it.

Chayra felt the situation around her was starting to make her uncomfortable. He tried to look around him. Sure enough all the canteen residents stared at him. It was because of someone standing next to him. People who indirectly want Chayra to avoid. Chayra decided to leave the canteen. But only two steps had someone clasped his hand. He paused and stared at the man sharply.

"Why do you want to go?" ask the man who still holds Chayra's hand.

"That's none of your business. Meningan now you take off my hands." said Chayra coldly. The man immediately took off his hand.

"Why did you change Ra? Did I ever have a mistake with you?" ask the guy.

"Elo who suddenly came to me in my life, and now you come with a problem. I should have asked you like that. Where have you been saying there's no news? Lo is starting to change." said Chayra with his regret. After that, Chayra left the cafeteria. The man intends to pursue Chayra, but Chayra's two best friends prevent him.

"Living for a while you go away first Chayra. His mind was now in chaos. I know you want to always be there for Chayra, but for now, just let him be alone first. We already know that you are actually Chayra's best friend. But I'm asking you to help me out with Chayra first. You don't want Chayra to hate you more and more" explained Khansa to the person who is none other than Shafiq.

"On what basis does Chayra hate me. We have only met for a few days." elak Syafiq.

"because of your cause he broke up with Afnan" explained Talina with emotion. For a moment Syafiq fell silent. Did Chayra blame herself for breaking up Chayra and Afnan? Syafiq felt he had done nothing to Chayra or Afnan.

When Chayra was about to go out through the door of the canteen. Suddenly someone blocked his wrist from the side. Chayra immediately looked at the man sharply. While that person was just staring casually at Chayra.

"Lo doesn't have to blame him. It's all because of me." said the man, he's Afnan. Cahyra immediately released her hand from Afnan's grasp.

"Lo told me because he's our relationship like this. Am I wrong if I go along with him?" chayra is full of emphasis. Without waiting for a reply from Afnan, Chayra immediately went away from Afnan.

"Whether he or not, we'll still break up. Sorry I'm Ra." said Afnan as he stared at Chayra's departure.

"All of this is not entirely Shafiq's fault. Precisely the problem is between you and Afnan" said Ardian who sat beside Chayra. At that moment, Chayra stared at Ardian sharply. He just didn't understand Ardian's direction. Suddenly he came to Chayra who was sitting alone in the garden seat. And he said it straight away.

"What do you mean by that?" ask Chayra.

"Ra I just don't want you to keep turning on Syafiq. Not that your friend from childhood, you should trust him. He where to make your relationship with Afnan destroyed. Precisely the problem is with Afnan himself." replied Ardian.

"Gue has no evidence to blame anyone other than Shafiq. Because Afnan himself blatantly wronged him. I automatically think so too. Try deb you think before he came to my relationship with Afnan well. But after he came it all ended like this." Chayra obviously tried to hold back her emotions.

For a moment Ardian was silent, he did not expect that Chayra was so trusting of Afnan. It's hard to see what's right and what's wrong.

"Gue just wants to know. He came here just to fix your friendship that is starting to stretch. Ra, I care the same lo I don't want you to do this same thing Syafiq." said Ardian began to emotion.

"Where do you know all that?" ask Chayra not to like it.

"It doesn't really matter where I know" replied Ardian.

"Once again I say the same, don't mistake me. Here I just need an outlet, and I don't know what's wrong and what's right. I'm confused Ar." said Chayra.

"As long as Afnan has not been truthful. I will not stop doing this Syafiq. It's up to you to know I'm selfish or mean. I don't care." continued Chayra.

"It should be someone who deserves your guilt that I am not Shafiq. Because I'm the only one who knows why Afnan broke up. I hope that in the future you will not admit this." said Ardian. After that Ardian left Chayra alone at the school.

Chayra could only stare at Ardian's departure with mixed feelings. He was too stupid to deal with this kind of problem. From the bottom of his heart, he did not want to blame Shafiq. But everything has gone. Actually Chayra also did not want to do this to Syafiq. Yeah, what Ardian said is all true. But whatever the power, his ego is bigger than his feelings. Rice is already porridge. It all happened and can't be played again.

"What should I do?" chayra asked herself as she rubbed her face violently.

"Ardian was right, the point of the problem was Afnan himself. I have to ask for an explanation from Afnan directly." continued Chayra.

Now Chayra decided to go to Afnan. Along the way to Afnan class, many pairs of eyes were staring at him. Perhaps news of his breakup with Afnan has spread throughout this school. But Chayra did not care at all about all those gazes. He was only focused on meeting with Afnan.

Arriving Chayra in front of class 12 IPA 1, Chayra's steps are blocked by two guys. Chayra did not know the two men at all.

"Tumben really you come here. Mending you accept that you are cut off by Afnan. Some of us are still single" said one of the men. Chayra was just silent, she did not intend to serve the speech of the obscure person at all.

"Include now you call Afnan, I want to see him" said Chayra in a cold tone.

"Afnan wasn't in the class, he had permission to go home. He said he was sick. But I don't know either." reply one of the guys.

Afnan's sick? Chayra had just met Afnan, and she looked fine. He was sure there was something Afnan was hiding from him.

"If so I want to see Ardian" said Chayra.

"To me" said one of the men. He went to class to call Ardian.

A few minutes Ardian came to Chayra who was sitting in the long seat in front of her class. Ardian sat next to Chayra and stared at Chayra. Chayra was just looking straight ahead.

"What's the matter with me?" ask Ardian. Chayra stared at Ardian.

"Ardian kok lo diem. Do you know where Afnan went? Or maybe you know where to go, you don't want to tell me." continued Chayra.

"It's not Ra, but I don't want to hurt your feelings. If you want to meet Afnan, call him. Get him to meet." suggested Ardian.

"Ar, meningan now you're honest with me. What Afnan really hides from me. I'm sure you know everything about Afnan" Chayra said.

"Gue can't tell you anything. Who has the right to tell you it's Afnan himself. One day, Afnan will tell you to elo." reply Ardian.

"Gue wants it now. Not later, tomorrow, or the day after tomorrow, or at any time" Chayra said loudly.

"Gue resolutely repeated Ra. I can't tell you anything about Afnan to elo. It's up to you to hate me. But I keep my promise to him that he doesn't tell anyone. Including lo. Sorry I'm Ra." said Ardian.

After that Ardian left Chayra and went to his class. While Chayra was annoyed with the attitude of Ardian who always held fast to his promise. There is nothing wrong with Ardian's attitude. It's just that Chayra does not like the attitude of Ardian who always keeps his promise at times like this. That's Ardian.

"Ok fine, Ardian can not be sandelin" said Chayra with annoyance. Chayra walked away from the 12th grade IPA 1. On the way, he met with Shafiq. But Chayra was deliberately not staring at him. Syafiq stared at Chayra who was about to walk past him. Suddenly Syafiq grabbed Chayra's hand from the side. Making Chayra stop her steps and stare intently at Syafiq.

"Why?" ask Chayra coldly.

"Lo still mad at me?" ask Syafiq.

"Till this moment I still haven't got the truth. So I'm still thinking about the cause of all this." Chayra replied.

"When is Ra? Ra we're friends from childhood. We have been separated for a long time, and now suddenly for no apparent reason you are angry with me." said Syafiq. Without replying to the words of Shafiq, Chayra immediately left before Syafiq. Syafiq can only see Chayra leaving.

In the classroom 12 IPS 2, Chayra sees Talina sitting on her lap alone. He immediately approached Talina and sat down beside Talina. He looked towards Chayra with his regretful gaze.

"Where have I been looking for this from? I'm lonely to know there are no two of you" Talina said resentfully.

"Sorry, I had some business. Where is the bag not in the class?" ask Chayra.

"So he said he just wanted permission to go home. She said her body wasn't good." Talina explained. I don't know why he doesn't believe Talina's explanation. He grows increasingly suspicious of whether Khansa is hiding anything from him. That feeling he saw Khansa was fine.

"Okay, I don't believe it. I was convinced that Khansa was going with Afnan" Chayra said.

"Kok lo can think that" said Talina inexhaustible.

"So I went to Afnan's class, but he didn't exist. He said he was allowed to go home because he was sick. Khansa is not in class. Keep saying he's sick. It is no coincidence that they suddenly became ill. I see them as healthy." Chayra explained.

"No need to nething first Ra. Who knows, this is a coincidence." Talina said.

"Mending you call Khansa, keep me calling Afnan. If they both don't pick up our phones. They probably left together again. But if one of them picks up the phone from us. Ok I consider this a coincidence." proposed Chayra.

"They took action to call Khansa and Afnan. Their first call did not answer. Chayra and Talina continued to try to contact Khansa and Afnan. But the results remained the same, there was no answer from them. In fact they have called Afnan and Khansa more than ten times.

"Gue's more convinced they're hiding something from us" Chayra said in a fit of annoyance.

"From us nething mending tomorrow we ask Khansa directly." proposed Talina.

"Ok I agree." said Chayra.

"But I'm sure that Afnan and Khansa are hiding something. Butwhat? I have to investigate all this." Inner Chayra.

This evening Shafiq intends to go to meet Chayra. He decides to go to Chayra's house. Arriving in front of Chayra's house, Shafiq immediately knocked on the door. Before long the door opened, revealing a middle-aged woman. None other than Chayra. Mother Chayra just stared at Shafiq sharply.

"What are you doing to come to my house?" ask mommy with no likes.

"I want to meet Chayra, Auntie" replied Syafiq politely.

"Sway my son. Never meet or befriend my child." said the mother loudly.

.

"But Tan. Chayra and I have been friends for a long time. Why can't I meet Chayra" Syafiq said.

"Ask your family." reply. After that, she immediately closed the door hard. He did not understand at all why the mother forbade Shafiq to meet with Chayra. His relationship with the Chayra family was very close. But these few years it has been a little problematic with the Chayra family.

There is something that Shafiq does not know. About the reason the Chayra family hates the Syafiq family. That's because the Syafiq family had almost bankrupted the Chayra family. They compete to win the tender. In the end, the Shafiq family won it. Even the defeat almost made the Chayra family bankrupt. Because that is what makes the Chayra family hate the Syafiq family.

Shafiq decided to go home hearing empty handed. His hope is no longer in line with reality. He felt that the more he came here the more things that made him and Chayra far away.

"Is this a sign that Chayra can't be together anymore" said Shafiq.
