Chapter 13

For an hour, SMA A students waited for the bus to arrive, not long after that the bus came and immediately parked in front of the field where the students had already gathered.

"Children, please keep order. The school buses rent as many as 4 buses and can accommodate 24 people in them, so please don't make a fuss and fight for seats. Thank you." Said Mr. Nathan giving instructions to the students.

All the students rushed to the bus they liked, Lidya was still busy holding her luggage which looked very much. When he looked around to ask for help, he found that no one was there because everyone had already gotten into the bus. Inside the bus, you can see Angga playing a song and wearing a headset.

When he looked outside, he saw Lidya who was having trouble carrying her luggage. At first Angga looked indifferent, but suddenly his heart was touched to help Lidya.

"Sir, let me go out for a moment." Permission Angga then got off the bus and approached Lidya.

"I know that a small body actually carries a lot of things." Said Angga as he took Lidya's luggage.

He snatched it straight from Lidya's hand.

"Don't worry, I'll help you because the teacher ordered you to. That's the bus we want to go." Angga continued lying.

"Sorry to keep bothering you." Said Lidya to Angga.

Angga heard but didn't answer, he immediately walked with Lidya's luggage to the bus she was riding.

"Fridge base is running." Lidya muttered in her heart.

Angga immediately put Lidya's luggage in the luggage storage drawer and immediately sat down while wearing a headset, Lidya, who had just entered the bus, was confused looking for an empty seat. After looking carefully he saw an empty seat, he approached the seat and sat down immediately.

When she turned to the side, Lidya was surprised because the one sitting beside her was Angga. Angga who felt that there was someone beside him immediately turned to the side and he was no less surprised like Lidya.

He immediately removed the headset from his ear and spoke to Lidya.

"Why do you like being around me so much?" Angga whispered quietly, he didn't want to scream because there were already many on the bus.

"I don't really want to be close to you either, but the empty seats are only here. I don't want to sit here, rather than standing and passing out, it's not cool." Answered Lydia.

"Oh." Angga answered briefly and put his headset back on.

The journey to X Village takes about 6 hours, the village is far from the city center. Information circulating that there is also very difficult to get an internet network, if you want to make a phone call then you have to go to the highlands of the village because that is the only place to get an internet network.

The long journey made Lidya unable to contain her sleep, she had tried her best not to fall asleep but her eyes said otherwise. Suddenly he fell asleep and his head fell on Angga's shoulder. Angga was immediately shocked and turned his head to the side to see Lidya's condition. Judging from the look on Lidya's face, it looks like she is very sleepy. Angga actually wanted to wake Lidya but she couldn't bear it. Angga was forced to let Lidya fall asleep on his shoulder.

Unconsciously Angga's hand began to rise and stroked Lidya's head.

"If you didn't go that time, surely you'd be like the girl next to me, Nadya." Angga muttered quietly, then he woke up from his daydream.

"Istighfar Angga, this is Lidya, not Nadya. Goodbye, I want Lidya too." Surprised Angga shook his head.

On a different bus, there were two people who were awkward with each other, they had wanted to talk just because their prestige was holding them back. Suddenly one of them felt thirsty and he forgot that the water supply was running out.

"Wow, how are you, where I'm really thirsty." Aditya said.

Aditya was the person mentioned earlier, the person sitting beside him was Reva. Reva who saw Aditya's unfriendly face finally got up the courage to ask.

"Excuse me, why are you looking so displeased earlier?" Who is Reva?

"Eh yeah, I'm thirsty and the water I brought is gone." Aditya replied.

Reva opened her bag and took a bottle of mineral water.

"This for you." Reva said, handing him a water bottle.

"Oh no, I'm sorry how will you be." Reject Aditya.

"Take it, I still have a bottle of mine in the bag. Here's a drink so you won't be thirsty anymore." Reva replied immediately giving Aditya the bottle.

"Thanks." Aditya accepts the bottle.

He immediately took a sip and some of the water in the bottle was gone.

"Introduce me, I'm Aditya Chandrawinata. Just call me Aditya, the head of class 11 IPA 1 and vice chairman of the student council." Aditya said while giving a helping hand as a sign of acquaintance.

Reva at first still felt awkward, but in the end she returned the outstretched hand.

"Introduce me Cantika Reva Kim from grade 11 IPA 3. Just call me Reva." Reva replied introducing himself as well.

"Thank you Reva for the water earlier." Aditya says thank you for the second time.

"You're welcome, Aditya." Reva replied with a smile.

"Just call Aditya, we're both in the same class, so you don't have to use big brother at all." Aditya said.

After a brief introduction, the two of them talked. And it didn't take long for the two of them to become close, Aditya who was talkative made Reva like to talk to him.

He feels that it is appropriate to talk to Aditya, because he thinks that when he talks to Aditya, he feels connected. It's not like he's talking to Wardana and Rara, whose nature will wander all over the place.

"May I know what is your hobby, Rev?" Aditya asked curiously.

"I like to play the piano. Since I was 3 years old, I've been interested in piano. It happened when my mom asked me to go to a music festival and suddenly mom stopped to watch a piano show." Obviously Reva at length.

"Wow, you're cool too, so where do you like to play the piano now?" Aditya asked more curious.

If he already knows something, he will ask from the roots, Reva is not uncomfortable with Aditya's questions, he likes her instead. Aditya was the first to be excited to hear Reva's story, especially about the piano.

"For now I like to fill in international music exhibitions or events that smell about piano and music." Reva replied.

Aditya who heard that was immediately shocked and amazed.

"Wow, that means you're a professional pianist, right? This isn't a hobby anymore. Her name is Reva. You're really great." Aditya said with a beaming face. Reva immediately smiled when she heard Aditya's praise.

"May I have your phone number Rev? Don't think it's weird first. I asked to call you later on my birthday. My birthday is still 2 months away, just so I don't bother looking for a piano player, I'll just invite you. But You don't mind do you?" Ask Aditya.

Aditya is actually lying, he asked for Reva's number not for his birthday, but to talk to him if he has free time.

"How come you believe me, Dit? Even though we've only just met. Is it true that you just invited me like that? Didn't think so." Reva replied, who was not comfortable with Aditya's offer.

Actually he was willing to but he was afraid to disappoint Aditya, if he gave a bad piano playing performance.

"I believe it, it's safe. I've also seen you at the opening of the Chandrawinata family's coal headquarters." Aditya's words made Reva even more shocked.

It can be seen from the look on Reva's face which is not as bright as before.

"I am the son of Mr. Chandrawinata. I also watched you while playing the piano, since the beginning of sitting here I am familiar with your face so I talk to you." Aditya continued.

"Oh, it turns out that this world is really small, huh." Reva replied then laughed with Aditya.

They finally got back to talking like two people who had known each other for a long time.
