D-3 Election of the Chairman of SEB ...
Today is the quiet period, before the election day for the chairman of the SEB Faculty of Economics. Ardilo and his running mate, Ervan, are busy preparing themselves. Even though during the quiet period they can no longer campaign, but they are preparing for all the possibilities that will occur on the day of the event.
Ardilo, who had confessed his feelings to Taera, was very relieved. Although Taera knows when she will answer, Ardilo has promised he will wait faithfully without turning away.
At that time, second-year accounting students were changing their class hours. Meanwhile, Ardilo was in front of the photocopy spot watching Taera joking with Stefa. It felt like just watching her made him happy. There is a feeling of wanting to make Taera his lover. Suddenly Ardilo imagined how wonderful it would be to date Taera.
"Bro..." someone called Ardilo. But Ardilo was busy daydreaming.
"Bro..." repeated the person.
Ardilo then woke up from his reverie. It turned out that it was Dino who had been standing beside him while calling out to him.
"Eh... Dino. What's wrong, Din?" Ardilo asked.
"Who are you daydreaming about, bro? From earlier being called you don't answer," asked Dino back.
"Ah... nope. I don't dream about anyone," Ardilo replied, lying.
"Seriously? How come it looks so beautiful that you imagine? Maybe you are daydreaming no more," commented Dino.
"It's just good. I'm daydreaming... daydreaming later when the election for the chairman of SEB. Yes, I'm daydreaming about it. Seriously," Ardilo explained.
"Are you sure you win, bro? Your rival has many supporters, you know," said Dino jokingly. Even it is true. The supporters of Putra and Dino are no less than Ardilo and Ervan.
"Yes... it's been an effort, Din. Just leave it with the Almighty. Whoever becomes chairman and vice chairman of the SEB Faculty of Economics later, we must support each other," said Ardilo, then smiled.
"I now understand why girls like you, bro," said Dino analyzing.
"Why?" Ardilo asked.
"If you answer, or if you're talking, it makes your heart looks cool. It makes people flowery, bro," said Dino and then giggled.
Ardilo chuckled. At that time, Taera and Stefa passed in front of them. The two of them only greeted by nodding their heads at Ardilo because at that time there was still Dino who was chatting with him. Ardilo wanted to hold Taera in his heart for a moment and asked her to chat. Chat with Taera is one of the energy boosters for Ardilo, besides being a source of carbohydrates.
"Who are they, bro?" asked Dino, then looked right and left. Taera and Stefa had walked past them. Of course, Dino didn't notice.
"Junior high level," replied Ardilo. He still doesn't want people to know that he is close to Taera. Especially after Ardilo confessed his feelings. People will be excited if they know this.
"Just because of famous seniors. Okay, I'll go back first. After that, I want more classes," said Dino.
"Yes. Those who are diligent are studying," said Ardilo. Dino just gestured okay. Shortly after that, Serry came.
"Ardi, I saw Taera walking past you. How come you just shut up?" asked Serry.
"Yes, I have Dino in front of me. If I say hi to Taera, then he will be suspicious. I'm not comfortable with her because she hasn't answered me yet. Later, it's still excited people like yesterday when I ate with her in the canteen, "said Ardilo.
Serry tried to understand. "Yeah, that's true. She must be afraid of being gossiped about by you."
"Well then. Let's go to class," said Ardilo.
Serry nodded in agreement, then took her bag and went to class with Ardilo and their friends.
***
Taera couldn't stop thinking about the incident. She saw Ardilo was chatting with Dino, her classmate. She wanted to say hello to Ardilo. But she didn't want to show her closeness to Ardilo to anyone. Taera is still keeping yesterday's incident a secret. When Ardilo confessed his feelings to Taera. She still wanted to keep it to herself, a sweet secret. However, suddenly she became upset because of her feelings.
"What's wrong with you? You seem daydreaming," asked Stefa was sitting beside her. Stefa could see Taera looked nervous. As if there was a big problem in her mind.
"No. I'm fine. I'm just thinking about my assignments," Taera replied, slacking off.
"It's not unusual for you to think about assignments? Usually, don't you think about dramas?" asked Stefa doubtfully.
"I'm a diligent student actually. Not many people only know. I can beat you," Taera joked.
"You're arrogant. Okay, let's compete in the quiz. If my score is better than yours, you have to treat me. It will be noon during the week, "said Stefa defiantly.
"Nope. I'll go bankrupt if you lose," Taera suddenly panicked.
Stefa laughed, "So don't be so stupid."
"I'm just kidding," Taera said, then wailed. It makes Stefa irritated.
Stefa then pinched Taera's cheek, "My best friend is so cute."
***
After college, Stefa went home early because she had to take Yania back to his boarding house. After all, she had a stomachache. Taera also wants to go straight to the boarding house. A lazy student like Taera doesn't feel comfortable staying in college for a long time without unnecessary activities.
Suddenly someone tapped Taera's shoulder. She automatically turned her head.
"Hello, Taera?"
Taera was confused about who was this beautiful girl greeted her then smiled, "Yes. Sorry, who are you?"
"My name is Serry. A third-level Management student. I'm Ardilo's best friend."
Hearing Ardilo's name made Taera glare in surprise. Why did his best friend meet her?
"Oh, yes. What's wrong, Serry?" Taera asked politely.
"It's okay. I only want to know Ardilo's future girlfriend," Serry replied in a friendly manner.
Taera is getting confused. Where did this sister know if Ardilo had confessed to her? But then she thought. Maybe Serry is Ardilo's best friend.
"Don't worry, Ardilo just told me. I won't tell anyone. Oh yes, this is my chat ID. Just one time, you want to tell me about Ardilo," Serry said, then handed a piece of paper.
"Oh... yes, sis. Thank you for your help. But I haven't met Ardilo," said Taera.
"Yes, I know. Yes, maybe you need advice or only want to chat with me. I also want to meet a girl who has made my best friend fall in love," said Serry and smiled.
"Yes, sis, it's okay. Later, I'll chat with you," said Taera.
"Okay. I'll go first. Be careful on the road," said Serry saying goodbye to Taera.
Taera just nodded and immediately returned to her boarding house. On the way to the boarding house, she thought about her feelings. It feels like holding this happy feeling alone is not easy.
Arriving at the boarding house, Taera did not immediately eat. She took out her laptop and created an anonymous blog. She got this idea on the way home earlier. She poured all her feelings there. What she felt, what she buried alone, all poured out.
Then Taera thought of Serry, who was acquainted with her earlier. Should she tell Serry that she was happy that Ardilo confessed to her?
