Starting From Hate

***

The break bell will end I a few minutes. Nadia had to immediately bring her friends assignment book
to the teacher's room before the bell rang. The position of vice president of the class made her busy like
this. Governor...the books that Nadia brought all fell. The person who crashed somehow run where.
Never mind helping her, not apologizing. "Damn! Run doesn't use eyes", grumbled Nadia. With a sour
face she began to squat to tidy up the fallen books. Nadia had not finished tidying up the footsteps that
came to her. "Very cheap. Everything fell down, huh ?" scoffed at a guy with a cynical smile. For a
moment Nadia stopped tidying up the books, she tried to see people who dared to scoff at her. It turns
out he is again. A tall-headed man with always messy hair. Swear! Nadia really hates this guy. For the
rest of her life, she's not going to be nice to the guy in front of her. Then Nadia began to continue tidying
up the book without answering the guy's quetion. The tall guy flashed his eyebrows at a glance. And
again he was stunned because the girl in front of him did not respond. Ussually if she was provoked by
her words, even a war of mouths would accur and would not be finished before someone came to
intervene. Teeeett...the bell that marks the end of the break sounds loud. "I mean you want to help my
bad friend, but what's the power already after the bell. So sorry you can't help". Said the guy while
pressing the ugly word in the middle of the sentence. The guy is still waiting for the girl's reaction in
front of him. But the one waiting didn't reply with ridicule. " You changed". Muttered the guy then
turned to get ready to enter his class. As soon as the guy turns around, Nadia who has finished clearing
the book, starts putting up a square. With enthusiasm 45 Nadia began swinging her right foot towards
the boy's left leg violently. Can you imagine how it hurts feet. "Oops", the guy yelled, groaning in pain.
"Feel it hurts!!" taunted Nadia as she run carrying the books that had been scattered. Can you imagine
how it hurts feet. Nadia uses super hard power. Her red smile graced the face of the tall curly-haired girl.

"Nadia.." Nadia turned to see who was calling her. It turns out that from a distance her dear friend
has been good since junior high school was running towards her. Casually, Nadia turned around and
walked looking for her favorite motorbike. Still looking for a motorbike, it turn out instead it hits its head
from behind. "Woe, dont hear my scream ? What kind of friend isn't your friend's greeting ?". Amel said
with her lips. The characteristics of her friend were if she was sulking. "sorry sya, I am bad mood, want
to hurry home". "Bad mood ? Obviously you made an uproar in one class. I've kicked a guy's leg until the
guys excusme to go home. I'm not sorry anymore". Clear Nesya heart at length. " hah, until it's as far as
it is ? Right I'm just walking on her feet, how bad is that ?". Nadia really didn't think it was really hard ?
The guy turned out to be really soft. She thought to herself. "I'm kicking, but I'm using a super kick, pity
Reno". "He started first" refuse to defend herself. Momentarily silence, then her lips ran thinly. "why are
you two always fighting ? The problem is still that ? It is really a junior high school", said Nesya
innocontly, without intending to remember the past. "After all, I can accept it if Reno doesn't like me".

***
 The bell rang loudly marked the lesson hours were over. Such a hot weather did not dampen the
intention of high school students to hurry home. Nadia herself cleared her books. While Nesya the book
still dweells on its notebook and then occasionally turns to the board. "so if you write not like a snail".
With exasperation, she pinched her cheeks. " First,yeah sya. I told my mom to come home quickly!".
Nesya just snorted then again busy with her notes. When she opened the classroom door, someone
turned out to also open the classroom door from the outside. "Uh,Sorry.."Nadia said awkwardly. But as
soon as she realized who was in front of her, she immediately gave her annoyed face. "what are you
doing here ? Are you still having a legache ? It is just to be exaggerated so that yesterday will come
home sooner ? annoyed Nadia. Honest , Reno is already bored like this with Nadia. He wanted to have a
relationship with Nadia, who could return to the way she used to be. "You don't have to look for it
because you just want to find your luck. Reno said coldly while looking around in his eyes. "hey,sya!"
said Reno cheerfully as the person he was looking for appeared. "Hey too.so now ? Happily for a
moment glanced at Nadia. Then she saw Reno nodding markedly affirming. "Nad, we are first", said
Nesya brief. Nadia was just dumbfounded and quickly nodded. She looked at Nesya and Reno who was
getting farther away. For some reason, her feelings became strange every time they saw them together.
Like there is someone who is sick in a organ. Usually, Reno is always looking for problems with her.

Byuurr..strawberry syrup smoothly flows from Nadia hair until it drips onto her white shirt. It can't fight.
She's on a female WC now. Moreover it's the last hour. No one will be able to help her until the bell goes
home. "What do you mean ?" snapped Nadia defiantly. She wasn't accepted like this. "Haven't been
knocked down like this ?" replied the girl while grabbing Nadia's hair. "Riz, where the syrup ?" said the
girl again, her right hand still grabbing Nadia's hair. "You want me to flush again ?" asked the girl again.
Hello ??!! No need to ask, stupid people also know. Where is someone who volunteered to make
strawberry syrup ? She shouted to herself. She knew that the girl in front of her was named Linda. Linda
is famous for her ferocity because of ferocity in terms of bumping into people. She also knows that Linda
is a class with Reno. Yeah, instead of continuing to dying in hospital, Nadia an just stay quiet. She also
knows that Linda is a class with Reno. Wait-wait..Reno ?? Maybe let him scold him. Watch out, until
Iknow you are the culprit. I will go shirty in your class."I think, I don't have a problem with you", shouted
Nadia,pushing Linda with her sadist. Nadia really can't stand their treatment. Let I was very hospitalized.
What is clear is that old grandmother needs to be taught a lesson. Both friends Linda, Rizka and Ayu
swiftly tried to hold off Nadia. But Nadia rebelled. "Hurry, Lin, we'll be caught for a while". Said Ayu the
brown eyed girl. In a few seconds, Linda returned to pouring syrup." stay away from the Reno. I know
you are both friends from Junior high scool. That when you never refused Reno. But why do you not
want to release Reno now ?. " you mean ? Tease Nadia. I don't know you all. You know, I dont have
anything with Reno. You don't see my job. The same guy just fighting". Plaakk..a smooth slap landed on
her cheek. Tolerance Nadia finally reached the bottom level. Buuugg! Nadia's bump hit right on Linda's
nose. Linda who is angry is exploding. The war of the world is inevitable. Three to one.Obviously the
loser of lost. It doesn't take long. She has fallen limp. Her hair was wet end sick because of the trellis,
her cheeks were sick from a slap. Her head was dizzy. "How dare you just screw up!". A guy snapped
firmly. At the same time the trio of gangs turned to look at the person. Nadia want to see, but closed
Linda. From his voice Nadia already knew. But she know what was wrong. "Go all away.Before I
reported". Said guy short. Nadia vaguely saw the gang rushing away in a hurry. Then the guy approached
Nadia and helped her to stand up. "Are you okay, Nad ?". Regret Reno. " This painful !!".

***

Spatter wet the earth. Nadia and Reno were in the UKS room. Reno held a cold hand kerchief that was
placed around Nadia's cheek. Nadia is very weak. If she still has energy, she won't want Reno hands to
touch her cheeks. But because of compulsion, what else can I do, " How come you go home?".asked
Reno innocently. "what do you do, come back, come home" replied Nadia ignorant. It seemed to me
that, Nadia was more and more resentful about his name was Reno. Result Reno herself had been hit by
life. But Reno doesn't come, maybe he'll faint first before being found. "was that your girl?" Nadia said
with an irritated face. " No", said Reno flatly. "Then how come she even crashed me ? Tell me to say
away from everyone. Who is she?". Nadia grented, very annoyed. Ups ! How come I say like I don't want
to go far from Reno. Reno momentarily smile. "she's the girl I refused. So she knows,everything about
me and includes about you" said Reno while pointing at Nadia. Nadia was silent. She didn't know what
to do after Reno pointed at her. When she just pointed out, "can you go home by yourself right?" Reno
asked. "can. Do you want to change me home ?". "You just thought I forgot your house ? Don't think you
refused, I kept depressed, I kept forgetting everything. Something about yourself. Even thought my
feelings are still like before", explained Reno as clearly as possible. Reno thought now it was time to tell
his about the matter. "You're talking like that again, I corner your forehead!" threaten the person. He is
indeed crazy. The guy has just been hit with a headache, instead he was given an conversation is more
dizzy. "My feelings are still like before, haven't changed one bit. When you know, I'm always looking for
it bacause you mean it. I don't want us to be enemies, be friens, or whatever. When you reject me, I
don't accept it. But over time, we get the same school. I tried to accept it. But I don't know why you was
even guaranteed. Finally I was sighed, and without realizing it I wasn't even sure you were fighting". For
a moment Reno took a breath. "You don't want to be my girlfriend? Whatever the answer, I accept it". A
moment of silence between the two of them. "I think I came back first", said Nadia in a hurry took his
bag. This is Nadia's habit, always dodging, always avoiding reality. She really doesn't know what to do.
Then she refused Reno because Nesya was also in love with Reno, but now ?. "Tomorrow I don't go to
school here. I'm moving to school". Reno spoke right at the time of Nadia already on the doorstep of the
UKS. Nadia was silent, unable to speak. She stepped away leaving the UKS. Leave the pensive Reno
alone.

***

The class is still quiet. There are only a few new students coming. She glanced at the next bench. Her
heart hasn't arrived yet. Nadia herself arrived in the morning. Usually she come 5 minutes before the
bell, when the class is already crowded with resident. Last night she couldn't sleep. Somehow, the
shadow of Reno always flashed in her mind. Is it true that Reno moved to school? Why should you
move? Who cares Reno wants to move or not, thought Nadia. "Argg..why do I think about him?. "Think
of Reno you mean?" said Nesya suddenly was beside Nadia. "Here is the prize from your prince", she
saw his Nesya pulled out a blue box medium size. Out of curiosity, Nadia quickly opened the box. It
contained a rainbow patterned photo frame with photos of Nadia and Reno while giving me a photo.
When follow MOS junior high scool in it. There is a paper. Read the lette immediately.

Dear Nadia, remember no, the firs time we acquinted? At that time you cried because of the law with
the senior. In my heart,I laugh. Why is there a girl whine this. Are you like this ? Hehe..just kidding. You
used to say you want to see a rainbow but never get it. I hope you are happy with the rainbow in the
photo frame. Maybe I can't show the rainbow rigth now. Because I have to join the parents who move
task. But one day I will show you how beautiful the rainbow is. Wait for me 2 more years. When that
time arrives. There is no reason for you don't want to be my girlfriend. Love you,Dear greetings,Reno
Purwanto.

"Why don't you acept him? I know you like Reno. But you don't want to hurt me?" momentarily Nesya
smilling, "believe me, now I don't have the same feeling Reno, he's just my little friend and nothing
more". Said Nesya, ensure Nadia. "thank you. You aremy best friend". Nadia said sincerely, "but I stick to
my principles". Nadia said confidently. Her eyes look glazed. "Honestly, when I know Reno likes you and
only thinks of me as his little friend, why is the world not fair to me. Bit over time I realize if not
everything we want is best for us", a smile again adorned her tiny face. "And you have to promise me if
you will be honest about your feelings with Reno. Promise?" continued Nesya take the little finger up.
She wanted to refuse, but her luck was too good for her. She herself knows that until now the country
has not completely forgotten Reno. But Nadia also did not want to disappoint her heart. She lifted her
little finger. "Yes, promise..." murmured Nadia softly.

Berawal dari Benci

***
Bel istirahat akan berakhir berapa menit lagi. Nadia harus segera membawa buku tugas teman-
temannya ke ruang guru sebelum bel berbunyi. Jabatan wakil ketua kelas membuatnya sibuk seperti ini.
Gubrak... Buku-buku yang di bawa Nadia jatuh semua. Orang yang menabrak entah lari kemana.
Jangankan menolongnya, meminta maaf pun tidak. "sial! Lari tidak pake mata.." gerutu Nadia. Dengan
wajah masam ia mulai jongkok untuk merapikan buku-buku yang terjatuh. Belum selesai Nadia
merapikan terdengar langkah kaki yang datang menghampirinya. "Kasihan sekali. Bukunya jatuh semua
ya ?" cemooh seorang cowok dengan senyum sinis. Sejenak Nadia berhenti merapikan buku-buku, ia
mencoba melihat orang yang berani mencemoohnya. Ternyata dia lagi. Cowok berpostur tinggi dengan
rambut yang selalu berantakan. Sumpah! Nadia benci sekali sama cowok ini. Seumur hidup Nadia tidak
akan pernah bersikap baik dengan cowok yang ada di depannya ini. Lalu Nadia mulai melanjutkan
merapikan buku tanpa menjawab pertanyaan cowok tersebut. Cowok tinggi itu sepintas mengernyitkan
alisnya. Dan kembali ia tercenung karena cewek di depannya tidak menanggapi. Biasanya kalau Nadia
terpancing dengan obrolannya, perang mulut pun akan terjadi dan takkan selesai sebelum seseorang
datang memisahkan. Teeeett... Bel tanda berakhirnya jam istirahat terdengar nyaring "Maksud hati ingin
membantu teman saya yang jelek ini. Tetapi apa daya sudah terlanjur bel. Jadi maaf tidak bisa
membantu". Ucap cowok tersebut sambil menekan kata jelek di pertengahan kalimat. Cowok tersebut
masih menunggu reaksi cewek yang ada di depannya. Tetapi yang di tunggu tidak membalas dengan
ejekan. "kamu berubah". Gumam cowok tersebut lalu berbalik bersiap masuk ke kelasnya. Begitu cowok
itu membalikkan badannya, Nadia yang sudah selesai membereskan buku mulai memasang ancang-
ancang. Dengan semangat 45 Nadia mulai mengayunkan kaki kanannya ke arah kaki kiri cowok tersebut
dengan keras. "Aduuuuhh" teriak cowok tersebut sambil menggerang kesakitan. "Rasakan tuh sakit!!"
ejek Nadia sambil berlari membawa buku-buku yang tadi sempat berserakan. Bisa di bayangkan
bagaimana sakitnya tuh kaki. Secara Nadia pakai kekuatan yang super keras. Senyum kemenangan
menghiasi di wajah cewek tinggi berambut ikal tersebut.

***

"Nadia.." Nadia menoleh untuk melihat siapa yang memanggilnya. Ternyata dari kejauhan Nesya teman
baiknya sejak SMP sedang berlari kearahnya. Dengan santai Nadia membalikkan badannya berjalan
mencari motor matic kesayangannya. Ia sendiri lupa dimana menaruh motornya. Nadia memang paling
payah sama yang namanya mengingat sesuatu. Masih celingak-celinguk mencari motor, Nesya malah
menjitak kepalanya dari belakang. "Woe, tidak dengar teriakan saya ya? Teman macam apa yang tidak
nyaut sapaan temannya sendiri". Ucap Amel dengan bibir monyong. Ciri khas sahabatnya tersebut kalau
lagi marah. "Maaf Sya, perasaan saya lagi tidak enak, ingin cepat pulang". " perasaan lagi tidak enak?
Jelas-jelas kamu tadi bikin gempar satu kelas. Sudah nendang kaki cowok sampai itu cowok permisi
pulang, tidak minta maaf lagi". Jelas Nesya panjang lebar. "Hah? Sampai segitu parahnya?" Nadia benar-
benar tidak menyangka. Masa sih sekeras itu? Tuh cowok ternyata lemah, pikirnya dalam hati. "Nendang
tapi kamu pake tendangan super keras. Kasihan Reno". "Orang dia yang mulai duluan".Bantah Nadia
membelah diri. Sejenak Nesya terdiam, lalu berlahan bibirnya tersenyum tipis. "kenapa sih kalian berdua
selalu berantem? Masalahnya masih yang itu? Itu kan waktu SMP dulu". Ujar Nesya polos, tanpa
bermaksud mengingatkan kejadian yang lalu. "Lagi pula saya sudah bisa menerima kalau Reno tidak suka
sama saya".
***

Bel pulang berbunyi nyaring bertanda jam pelajaran telah usai. Cuaca yang sedemikian panas tak
mrnyurutkan niat para siswa SMA untuk bergegas pulang ke rumah. Nadia sendiri sudah membereskan
buku-bukunya. Sedangkan Nesya masih berkutat pada buku catatannya lalu sesekali menoleh ke papan
tulis. "Makanya kalau menulis jangan seperti siput" dengan gemas Nadia mencubit pipi Nesya. "Duluan
ya, Sya. Di suruh mama saya pulang cepat!" Nesya hanya mendengus lalu kembali sibuk dengan
catatannya. Saat Nadia membuka pintu kelas, seseorang ternyata juga membuka pintu kelasnya dari
luar. "Eh, maaf.." ucap Nadia canggung. Tetapi begitu sadar siapa orang yang ada di depannya, Nadia
langsung kasih tampang jutek kepada orang itu. "Buat apa kamu kesini?! Masih sakit kakinya? Apa cuma
di lebih-lebihin kemarin pulang cepat?" kesal Nadia. Jujur Reno sudah bosan sepeti begini terus dengan
Nadia. Dia ingin hubungannya dengan Nadia bisa kembali seperti dulu. "Tidak perlu cari gara-gara. Saya
cuma mau cari Nesya". Ucap Reno dingin sambil celingak-celinguk mencari Nesya. "Hey Sya!" ucap Reno
riang begitu orang yang dicarinya muncul. "Hey juga. Jadi sekarang?" Nesya sejenak melirik Nadia. Lalu
di lihatnya Reno mengangguk bertanda mengiyakan. "Nad,kita duluan ya", ujar Nesya singkat. Nadia
hanya bengong lalu dengan cepat mengangguk. Di pandangi Nesya dan Reno yang semakin jauh. Entah
kenapa, perasaannya jadi aneh setiap melihat mereka bersama. Seperti ada yang sakit disuatu organ
tubuhnya. Biasanya Reno selalu mencari masalah dengannya. Namun kini berbeda. Reno tidak
menggodanya dengan ejekan khasnya. Reno juga tidak menatapnya saat berbicara. Seperti ada yang
hilang. Sepeti ada yang pergi dari dirinya.

***

Byuuurr.. Sirup rasa strawberry mengalir deras dari rambut Nadia hingga menetes ke kemeja putihnya.
Nadia tidak bisa melawan. Ia kini ada di WC perempuan. Apalagi ini jam terakhir. Tidak ada yang akan
bisa menolongnya sampai bel pulang berbunyi. "Maksud kamu apa?" bentak Nadia menantang. Ia tidak
terima di guyur seperti ini. "Belum kapok di guyur seperti ini?" balas cewek tersebut sambil menjambak
rambut Nadia. "Riz, mana sirupnya yang tadi?" ucap cewek itu lagi, tangan kanannya masih menjambak
rambut Nadia. Rizka langsung memberi satu gelas sirup yang sudah siap untuk di siram ke Nadia. "kamu
mau saya siram lagi?" tanya cewek itu lagi. Halo??!! Tidak perlu di tanya pun, orang bodoh juga tahu.
Mana ada orang yang sukareka mau berbasah ria dengan sirup strawberry? Teriak Nadia dalam hati. Ia
tahu kalau cewek di depannya ini bernama Linda. Linda terkenal primadona sekolah karena
keganasannya dalam hal melabrak orang. Yeah, dari pada melawan sampai sekarat masuk rumah sakit,
mending Nadia diam saja. Ia juga tahu kalau Linda satu kelas dengan Reno. Tunggu-tunggu..Reno???
Jangan-jangan dia biang keroknya. Awas kamu Ren, sampai saya tahu kamu biang keroknya. Saya akan
marah sebentar di kelas kamu!. "Saya rasa,saya tidak ada masalah sama kamu". Teriak Nadia sambil
mendorong Linda dengan sadisnya. Nadia benar-benar tidak tahan dengan perlakuan mereka. Biarin
saya masuk rumah sakit. Yang jelas ini nenek tua perlu di kasih pelajaran. Kedua teman Linda, Rizka dan
Ayu dengan sigap mencoba menahan Nadia. Tetapi Nadia malah memberontak. "Cepat Lin, sebentar
kita ketahuan". Kata Ayu si cewek sawo matang. Selang beberapa detik, Linda kembali mengguyur Nadia
dengan sirup. "Jauhin Reno. Saya tahu kalian berdua temanan dari SMP! Dulu kamu pernah tolak Reno.
Tetapi kenapa kamu sekarang tidak mau melepas Reno?!!". "Maksud kamu?" ledek Nadia sinis. "Saya
tidak kenal kalian semua. Asal kamu tahu saya tidak ada apa-apa sama Reno. Kamu tidak lihat kerjaan
saya sama tuh cowok sinting cuma berantem?". Plaakk.. Tamparan mulus mendarat di pipi Nadia.
"Tetapi kamu senang kan?" teriak Linda tepat di sebelah telinga Nadia. Kesabaran Nadia akhirnya
sampai level terbawah. Buuugg! Tonjokan Nadia mengenai tepat di hidung Linda.Linda marah makin
meledak. Perang dunia pun tak terelakan. Tiga banding satu. Jelas Nadia kalah. Tak perlu lama, Nadia
sudah jatuh terduduk lemas. Rambutnya sudah basah dan sakit karena di jambak, pipinya sakit kena
tamparan. Kepalanya terasa pening. "Beraninya cuma keroyokan!" bentak seorang cowok dengan tegas.
Serempak trio geng labrak menoleh untuk melihat orang itu, Nadia juga ingin,tetapi tertutup oleh Linda.
Dari suaranya Nadia sudah tahu. Tetapi ia tidak tahu benar atau salah. "pergi kalian semua. Sebelum
saya laporin". Ujar cowok itu singkat. Samar-samar Nadia melihat geng labrak pergi dengan buru-buru.
Lalu cowok tadi menghampiri Nadia dan membantunya untuk berdiri. "kamu tidak apa-apa kan,Nad?"
sesal Reno. "Ini sakitlah!!".

***

Hujan rintik-rintik membasahi bumi. Nadia dan Reno berada di ruang UKS. Nadia membaringkan diri di
tempat tidur yang ada tersedia di UKS. Reno memegangi sapu tangan dingin yang di letakkan di sekitar
pipi Nadia. Nadia lemas luar biasa. Kalau dia masih punya tenaga, dia tidak akan mau tangan Reno
menyentuh pipinya sendiri. Tetapi karena terpaksa. Mau bagaimana lagi. "sebentar kamu pulang
bagaimana?" tanya Reno polos. "Tidak gimana-mana. Pulang ya pulang". Jawab Nadia jutek. Rasanya
Nadia semakin benci dengan yang namanya Reno. Gara-gara Reno dirinya di labrak hidup-hidup. Tetapi
kalau Reno tidak datang. Mungkin dia akan pingsan duluan sebelum di temukan. "Tadi itu cewek kamu
ya?" ucap Nadia dengan wajah jengkel. "Tidak". Ucap Reno datar. "Terus dia kenapa ngelabrak saya?
Nyuruh jauhin kamu segala. Memang dia siapa?" gerutu Nadia kesal. Ups! Kok saya bilang seperti saya
tidak mau jauh-jauh sama Reno. Aduuuhh..Reno terjenak tersenyum. "Dia tuh cewek yang saya tolak.
Jadi dia tahu semuanya tentang saya dan termasuk tentang kamu" ucap Reno sambil menunjuk Nadia.
Nadia terdiam. Dia tidak tahu harus buat apa setelah Reno menunjuknya. Padahal cuma nunjuk. "Nanti
bisa pulang sendiri kan?" tanya Reno. "Bisalah. Memang kamu mau antar saya pulang?"."Memang kamu
kira saya sudah lupa sama rumah kamu? Jangan kira kamu tolak saya terus saya depresi terus lupain
segala sesuatu tentang diri kamu. Saya masih paham benar tentang diri kamu". Jelas Reno sejelas-
jelasnya. Reno pikir sekarang sudah saatnya ngungkapin perasaannya yang sebenarnya. "kamu bicara
seperti itu lagi, saya tonjok jidat kamu!" ancam Nadia. Nih orang memang sinting. Saya baru kena
musibah yang bikin kepala pusing, malah di kasih obrolan yang makin pusing. "Perasaan saya masih
seperti dulu, belum berubah sedikit pun. Asal kamu tahu, saya selalu cari gara-gara sama kamu itu
maksudnya. Saya tidak ingin kita musuhan, diam-diaman, atau apalah. Waktu kamu tolak saya, saya
tidak terima. Tetapi seiring berjalannya waktu, kita dapat sekolah yang sama. Saya coba buat terima.
Tetapi tidak tahu kenapa kamu malah diamin saya. Akhirnya saya kesal, dan tanpa sadar saya malah
ajakin kamu berantem". Sejenak Reno menarik nafas. "Kamu mau tidak jadi pacar saya? Apapun
jawabannya saya terima". Hening sejenak diantara mereka berdua. "Kayaknya saya pulang duluan deh".
Ucap Nadia sambil buru-buru mengambil tasnya. Inilah kebiasaan Nadia, selalu mengelak selalu
menghindar pada realita. Ia benar-benar tidak tahu harus buat apa. Dulu ia tolak Reno karena Nesya
juga suka Reno. Tetapi sekarang?. "Besok saya sudah tidak sekolah disini. Saya pindah sekolah". Reno
berbicara tepat saat Nadia sudah berada di ambang pintu UKS. Nadia terdiam tak sanggup berkata-kata.
Di langkahkan kakinya pergi meninggalkan UKS. Meninggalkan Reno yang termenung sendiri.
***

Kelas masih sepi. Hanya ada beberapa murid yang baru datang. Diliriknya bangku sebelah. Nesya belum
datang. Nadia sendiri tumben datang pagi. Biasanya ia datang 5 menit sebelum bel, disaat kelas sudah
padat akan penduduk. Semalam Nadia tidak bisa tidur. Entah kenapa bayangan Reno selalu terbesit di
benaknya. Apa benar Reno pindah sekolah? Kenapa harus pindah? Peduli sekali Reno mau pindah atau
tidak, batin Nadia. "Arggg... Kenapa sih saya mikir dia terus?"."Mikirin Reno maksud kamu?" ucap Nesya
tiba-tiba sudah ada di samping Nadia. "Nih hadiah dari pangeran kamu". Di lihatnya Nesya
mengeluarkan kotak biru berukuran sedang. Karena penasaran dengan cepat Nadia membuka kotak
tersebut. Isinya bingkai foto bermotif pelangi dengan foto Nadia dan Reno saat mengikuti MOS SMP
didalamnya. Terdapat sebuah kertas. Dengan segera di bacanya surat tersebut.

Dear Nadia, ingat tidak pertama kali kita kenalan? Waktu itu kamu menangis gara-gara di hukum sama
kakak kelas. Dalam hati saya ketawa, kok ada sih cewek cengeng seperti begini? Hehe..hanya bercanda.
Kamu dulu pernah bilang ingin lihat pelangi tetapi tidak pernah kesampaian. Semoga kamu senang
dengan pelangi yang ada di bingkai foto. Mungkin saya tidak bisa nunjukin pelangi saat ini,gue harus ikut
orang tua saya yang pindah tugas. Tapi suatu hari nanti saya akan nunjukin ke kamu gimana indahnya
pelangi. Tunggu saya dua tahun lagi. Saat waktu itu tiba, tidak ada alasan buat kamu tidak mau jadi
pacar saya. Sayang sayang kamu... Salam sayang, Reno purwanto.

"kenapa kamu tidak mau menerima dia? Saya tahu kamu suka Reno tetapi kamu tidak mau nyakitin
saya". Sejenak Nesya tersenyum. "percayalah, sekarang saya sudah tidak ada rasa sama Reno. Dia cuma
teman kecil saya dan tidak akan lebih". Ujar Nesya meyakinkan Nadia. "Terima kasih Sya. Kamu memang
sahabat terbaik saya". Ucap Nadia tulus. " Tetapi saya tetap pada prinsip saya". Ucap Nadia yakin. Nesya
terlihat menerawang. "jujur, waktu saya tahu Reno suka sama kamu dan cuma anggap saya sebagai
teman kecilnya. Saya ingin teriak sama semua orang, kenapa dunia tidak adil sama saya. Tetapi seiring
berjalannya waktu saya sadar kalau tidak semua yang kita inginkan adalah yang terbaik untuk kita".
Senyum kembali menghiasi wajah mungilnya. "Dan kamu harus janji sama saya kalau kamu akan jujur
tentang perasaan kamu sama Reno. Janji?" lanjut Nesya sambil mengangkat jari kelingkingnya. Ingin
rasanya Nadia menolak tetapi Nesya terlalu baik baginya. Dia sendiri tahu sampai saat ini Nesya belum
sepenuhnya melupakan Reno. Tetapi Nadia juga tak ingin mengecewakan Nesya. Berlahan diangkatnya
jari kelingkingnya. "Janji.." gumam Nadia lembut.
