Is There Love
Kenzhi Tiada


The Part 10


 


I still feel the heat on my cheeks, it feels like I want to quickly wash my face. I accelerated my way to the toilet. Until the toilet, I immediately turned on the sink and washed my face.


 


“Huh, relieved,” my inner finish washing face. I looked at my face in the mirror, then let out a long breath. There are still remnants of nervousness in me.


“Why? Nervous?” I was shocked to hear the voice of the person beside me.


“Sasa,” I said when I saw the one beside me was Sasa.


“Why are you here? Since when?” I tried to cover up my nervousness and asked as usual.


“Since. I'm nyusulin you're here. Abisnya ngeloyor aja, play stay-dwelling again.” Now Sasa glanced at me with a jutek hue. I just remember now, just after that incident I immediately left the canteen in a hurry, and forgot if there was Sasa waiting outside.


“Sorry. I completely forgot if you're waiting outside, don't get mad huh?” I looked at Sasa, but he laughed at me.


“Why are you laughing? Anything funny?” I felt Sasa's laughter was a mocking laughter because of the incident earlier. I'm still trying to calm down as usual.


“Banget,” reply Sasa steady.


“I saw it all. Your face is so red, it must be because of embarrassment, right? Don't cover. I've known you for a long time, so understand. And, now it's still nervous right?” Sasa looked at me getting closer with a seductive look.


“What the hell are you Sa? No, I'm normal. Don't talk about it anymore, you don't feel what I feel.” I looked at Sasa annoyed.


“Don't be angry, I'm just kidding. What do you feel? Come on tell me. I don't feel it, but at least I know how you feel,” he said with a mocking smile.


“What are you talking about? It was just an accidental incident,” I said in self-defense.


I saw a student suddenly go inside, spontaneously I and Sasa shouted.


“Hey, what are you doing here? Why are you here?” The students who entered were also shocked.


“Why did you enter? This is a ladies' room, why is it here?” I asked back.


“What are you talking about? This is the men's room. Never mind, I don't care. Move, I'll be in.” The student seemed to ignore me and Sasa, he just played through.


“What's right, I entered the wrong toilet?” my thinking. I quickly came out of the toilet, and outside I stared at the door. It says, ”TOILET MENAN”. Ah, it turns out to be true, I was wrong. I patted my cheeks a few times with my hands.


“Why is this messed up?” my inner. I feel more embarrassed.


“This, drink.” Sasa who is now beside me is giving me a bottle of mineral water.


“I?” I asked Sasa questioningly.


“Why? Quickly drink. You are very dehydrated.” Sasa pushed him closer.


“Ya, it looks like so.” I snatched the bottle in Sasa's hand and drank it.


“Hey, let's get there fast! The match is about to start,” said one of a group of students who now pass in front of me.


They seemed to be in a hurry to the field. Apparently the football match has already started.


“Let's go there,” take Sasa while pulling my arm.


“Eh, Sasa. Wait a minute, slow down.” Sasa didn't care about me, he walked half-running while pulling me. I who was one step behind him felt a bit overwhelmed.


 


Until the field, the atmosphere looks very crowded. Many students\-sissi cheered in support of their respective teams. This time, my school team is competing against Taruna Bangsa High School. Sasa and I looked for an empty seat, and I found it in the middle of the fourth row from the top. The more time, the more exciting the match, and the competition to score the tougher.


 


The cheers of my support supporters grew even more crowded when one of my school football team members led by Gavin managed to score, and managed to lead the early half. Finishing the first half, the match was rested fifteen minutes.


“Ryn, I went to the cafeteria for a while, laper nih,” Sasa said as she held her stomach.


“Eat startu, later fat you. He said he wanted a slim one, but how much to eat?” sindirku. Sasa grimaced at me.


“Yee, right there were cheers. Reduced a lot, my strength. Want no nitip? Mumpung benevolent.” Sasa looked at me with a big smile.


“Yes already, may I nitip. Beliin donut two packs well, same strowbery jam bread one, chocolate one, cheese one. Oh yes, mineral water one.” Without me noticing, Sasa looked at me in wonder.


“Why? Something wrong?” my many.


“It turns out, you have a lot of appetite also well,” said Sasa half muttered while scratching his head.


“Let's just. After all, the important thing is that I am full,”, I said in self-defense.


“Yes, yes, yes. Whatever. I go first,” he said then leave.


“Tadi told me not to eat much, but now he also eats a lot. Heeh, weird.” I heard Sasa grumbling, but I just smiled.


“Daffa,” I murmured to see Daffa sitting on the field unwind after a match, approached by a student carrying a bottle of mineral water and a small towel. The student approached with a big smile on his lips.


“Ah, jeez.” I was shocked, and clenched my hands in my mouth as I looked at the student in a very gentle manner approaching Daffa.


 


Not only did he give her a bottle of minerals, but he also wiped away the sweat dripping on Daffa's forehead using the small towel he was carrying. Meanwhile, Daffa seemed to agree and act ordinary.


  I so thought about Sasa's feelings, if he saw her it would definitely be jealous heavily.


I have felt it too, before. Yes, at that time Kenzhi was resting after participating in the pencak silat race.


 


I walked with P3K drugs to the pencak silat race room. I'll meet Kenzhi there. Today, he participated in the pencak silat race between schools. Time off, is the right time, right? In addition to treating his injuries from the opponent's blow earlier, I have also prepared lunch for him in my backpack.


Rarely do I want to do this.


If it wasn't for him forcing me yesterday, I wouldn't have come to support him and seen him fight. Actually, the reason I always refused to see him compete, was not because I didn't want to. But, I don't want to get carried away when I see Kenzhi being approached by another woman. I can't bear to see him hurt during the game.


 


I stopped at the door of the room, then sighed for a moment. I see, the rested Kenzhi is being treated by Yelena. Their distance is also very close. Moreover, once in a while Kenzhi complained of pain, Yelena increasingly treated Kenzhi spoiledly.


 


“Alright, inopportune time. I was wrong, coming here. Just go ahead, my inner” grumbled back then and left.


Uh, if you remember that incident, it feels really upset. Just as I was currently seeing Daffa with the student.


“Hey! Why dream like that? Thinking what?” I was shocked to hear Sasa's voice now awakening my daydream.


“No. Here my food,” I snatched the plastic bag containing my food, while Sasa who saw me only shook his head.


 


The second round of matches had already begun, the students who had been scattering away from school, or somewhere, had now returned to meet the field to see the match. The cheers were getting noisy and deafening. The competition to score is getting tougher. No one can score until the end of time. My school team, which has a score of one empty, has now won the semi-final and made it to the final.


I walked home through the corridor with Sasa. For some reason, many students seemed to be watching me silently. They also occasionally focus on their phones while holding back laughter. I was confused, what were they laughing at? Is my appearance strange? Is something wrong? I kept thinking about it, It feels uncomfortable, but I keep trying just plain and cute.


 


As far as the gate, I stopped my steps, as well as Sasa. I saw Daffa talking to the student. The student said a spoiled farewell to Daffa. Not only that, he also pinched Daffa's right cheek and left while waving and smiling widely. I glanced at Sasa, he looked jealous.


“Do not glance at me. I also saw it,” said Sasa annoyed as he looked at me furiously, then left me just like that.


 


 


I was still confused, not understanding what was really going on between them. In the past, they were always compact and together. But now, they look far away. Even today, I did not come face to face with Daffa even when I was with Sasa.


“Better I chase Sasa. pity too, he must be sad,” my inner.


As I walked a few steps forward, I heard Gavin's voice calling me from behind. He approached me with a breath.


“Kak Gavin's. Why are you so bored? What's calling me?” my many. I felt a bit nervous this time, still carried away in a feeling of embarrassment because of the incident earlier. Brother Gavin was silent for a moment, then set his breath.


“I've been looking for you everywhere, but it turns out to be here. Now you come with me, this is important.” He looked at me seriously this time.


“What's up? Why?” many confused.


“I'll show you something, this is very important. I can't say it here,” he said.


“What's really why? Important how?” I still don't understand Gavin's words.


 


Brother Gavin glanced right and left, then glanced at me. He gave a code that now many\-students are paying attention to us. I was surprised why they looked at us with such a strange look.


 


“Ah, jeez. A lot, my inner”.


“Oh, yes. I recall. Let's go,” take me to try to behave as usual and indifferent with those who pay attention.


Brother Gavin smiled at me and nodded. Without me noticing, Brother Gavin holding my right hand walked towards the car park. We got there, we got into the car, and shortly afterwards Gavin drove his car out of school. The car was going a little fast, and we kept quiet.


I was wondering, what's important? What's something? Is something bad going to happen? My mind kept on raging, by the questions that thrashed asking for answers. Finally, I asked myself.


“Eum, Brother. What the hell is it? Why did you call me?” manya curious.


“I got WhattsApp from dad, if any news about Kenzhi from Singapore. This is very important to you, isn't it? Only we know, so I can't say there,” Gavin said with a straight forward look.


“Is there really news about Kenzhi?” many enthusiast.


I feel like I have a hope for the truth. I hope the news of Kenzhi's death is not true. I'm sure Kenzhi is alive.


“Yes, but I don't know exactly how it is. That's why I'm taking you to the police station where my dad works, and we'll find out when we get there.. I hope, no matter what, you are ready to receive.” Now, Brother Gavin is staring at me.


“Iya. Whatever it is, I will accept it. Thank you, Brother helped me a lot.” I stared at Gavin's brother with a small smile.


“I promised you about this matter, so I will keep my promise. We're friends, aren't we? A good friend, will help his theme in trouble.” Although she did not look at me, she smiled at her sweet smile.


I'm so sorry, I once said he wasn't my friend. In fact, he helped me a lot.


“Right sister, a friend will help her struggling theme,” I said expressionlessly.


After arriving at the police station, Mr. Gavin parked his car, and we got out of the car and went inside. I shut up for a moment, then took a deep breath. There's a doubt in me, is Kenzhi really dead, or alive?


“Let's go in, we don't have much time. My father only promised me an hour, because he'll have an important meeting.” Brother Gavin turned towards me.


‘Iya, let's go in,” said I then turned to look at brother Gavin. Me and Gavin went into the office. Up inside, we met a policewoman who was sitting facing the table in front of him while noting something in a small book.


“Excuse me, good afternoon,” greet brother Gavin.


“Oh yes, can I help you?” asked the policewoman without turning away from her little book.


“Aunt Ana, it's me, Gavin. Is my dad still inside? I want to see him,” asked Mr. Gavin. As soon as he heard Gavin's brother mention his name, he turned to look at Gavin's brother.


“Ooh you Gavin. Sorry, Aunt didn't notice. Your father is in his room, just meet him in.” He looked at Brother Gavin with a small smile.


“Thanks Aunty,” said Brother Gavin. Me and Gavin's brother quickly passed from before the policeman.


“Eh, wait a minute. This who? Not usually you come here with women,” prevent the police when we just passed a few steps. The policeman turned to look at us. Now he looks at me.


“He's my friend,” replied Mr. Gavin briefly.


“Ouw, okay. Yes, I understand,” he said while smiling meaningfully.


“Based on young people,” he said half muttered and then turned again towards the table. Meanwhile, Gavin and I headed to Gavin's dad's office. Gavin's father was already waiting in front of the room.


“Aaah, it turns out you guys have arrived,” welcome brother Gavin's father who saw me and brother Gavin coming.


“Sore Om,”sapaku then smile small.


“Iya, afternoon too. Since you guys have come, then just go straight in,” invite brother Gavin's father to enter the room. Gavin and I nodded, we followed Gavin's father into the room.


“So, you are looking for your lost friend huh?” ask brother Gavin's father while sitting in his chair facing the laptop on his desk.


“I .. Yes Om,” I replied and then gave a small nod.


“Then, whatever the result you must be ready to receive it,” he said.


I became nervous. I was silent for a moment, my mind was raging. A lot of bad questions about kenzhi are dancing.


“Whatever it is, as long as it's true. I ... I will accept it,”.


“Good.” He quickly turned on his laptop, and started fiddling with it.


“I've contacted a police friend in Singapore, I asked for data about the accident victim, then cctv recording in TKP. I've also checked the cctv footage around the airport, before departure. Before the plane leaves, there is someone whose movements are suspicious. He also boarded the plane to Singapore. You can see the cctv recording around the airport before departure.” Gavin's father pointed to his laptop. Gavin and I watched the video, and it did look like a man wearing a black-cloaked grey suit and a black hat looked suspicious.


“While, in the cctv recording at the Singapore airport, the man in the same dress was also there. The accident occurred when passengers got off the plane immediately, the man got off the earliest of the other passengers and was seen in a hurry. About ten minutes later, the plane exploded. Many victims died, also heavily injured.” Brother Gavin's father shows video footage of Singapore airport cctv.


“Jadi ... That was as planned? And it was intentional? Then, in essence can be called not an accident?” sela Gavin asked.


“It looks like you were right, this was planned. The motive is still unknown, why do the blasting on the plane. However, it seems like someone was targeted by explosives. And, that guy could have been the culprit. He's still a fugitive until now,” obviously Gavin's brother's father.


 


My body trembled, my heartbeat felt faster. Why the detonation? What was Kenzhi's fault, until he was also involved in being a victim on the plane? Wh why? I feel angry, I feel very upset.


 


“In the data of injured victims there is no name of your friend, and the data of the deceased victim whose identity is known also does not exist. However, there was one death who had been burned all over, and even his face could not be clearly identified. But, his hand held a backpack in which there is an identification card named your friend.” Now Gavin's father looks at me seriously. He then fiddled with his laptop, then showed a photo of the backpack, identification card, and the deceased victim with a face that was completely unrecognizable. I clenched my hands in my mouth, I didn't believe it, but the real evidence was in front of my eyes.


“So, the deceased can be said my friend?” my many.


“Iya. After the examination, the hospital and the police declared it your best friend. Before finally the data was sent to the airport in Indonesia. Sorry, but that's the reality. You have to be able to accept it,” said Gavin's brother's father.


“Iya, I understand.” I nodded small.


My tears were struggling to get out, my face was flushed with sadness, but I questioned it.


“Sorry, I can only help until here,” said Gavin's brother's father.


“Thank you, Om for helping me too much. Now, the evidence I've seen, and I trust it.” I try to keep looking calm.


“Excuse me, sorry I interrupted. Sir, now you've been waiting in the meeting room. Please come soon,” said a police man who suddenly arrived. Brother Gavin's father nodded, then hinted the policeman to leave. Meanwhile, Gavin and I momentarily exchanged looks.


“All is clear, sorry I took too much time working Om. Thank you, have helped a lot, I beg you to resign,” said I.


“Dad, we'll go home,” Gavin said.


“Ya, okay. Remember, child, do not become fragile because of a problem. Stay excited, because there are still many new hopes in the future.” Brother Gavin's father looked at me while smiling sweetly.


“Em. Yes, thank you Om. We say goodbye first,” said I then smiled a little. Me and Gavin's brother then passed from the room.
