ERRA

Bab 16

Erra tersenyum comel memandang Zura yang sedang sabar menunggunya membeli kuih di kantin tadi.

"Hey,sorry lambat. Ramai beratur."

"Come on. Next time use your power." Gurau Zura sambil menyuruh Erra duduk disebelahnya.

"Haip..tak boleh salah guna kuasa tau. Dosa. Saya akan beratur just like everybody in school does."

"Ya,ya. Paham. Jom makan." Zura lantas menggigit donat kegemarannya dengan rakus. Haha.

Erra memerhati sahaja. Teringat ape yang diluahkan oleh Teacher Akmar semalam bila melihat Zura.

"Eh,why don't you eat with me? Something wrong?" Zura berhenti mengunyah dan memegang peha Erra.

"Eh,nothing. Makan2." Erra tersenyum lagi. Zura hanya mengangkat bahu dan meneruskan makan.

"Erm..semalam saya bercakap dengan Teacher Akmar.." Erra sengaja mahu melihat reaksi Zura bila dia membuka cerita tentang Teacher Akmar. Zura meneruskan kunyahan perlahan.

"Oh,ye ke. What did she say?" Soal Zura berlagak macam biasa. Respond pun  biasa je.

"She said..She was sorry and hope everything is ok between you and her. She did mention she was a bit  harsh to you yesterday,ye ke?" Tanya Erra lembut.

"Harsh? Oh..kat semua orang kot semalam dia marah. Lantak lah dia." Mood Zura tetiba ke laut bila Erra mula bercakap pasal Teacher Akmar.

"Kenapa tak cerita dekat saya semalam pasal hal ni? "

"Mende kecik je kot. Saya kena report satu2 ke kat awak what happen to me everyday? Hmm?" Tanya Zura,memandang Erra tepat. Erra menggeleng saje.

"Oh..erm..we found someone to join the team. So,you don't have to worry anymore." Luah Erra perlahan. Entah betul ke tidak ni.

"What? I said I want to join. So Im joining."

"Zura..kami dah jumpa pengganti. Lagipun awak tak suka kan. Saya taknak paksa awak."

"Ok. Whatever. Cepat makan.." Zura menyuapkan donat ke dlm mulut Erra perlahan.

"Zura.." Panggil Erra lembut setelah menelan donat tadi.

"Yes?" Terus Zura mengangkat kening dan tersenyum macho. Cane eh senyum macho. Ok abaikan. Haha.

"What do you think about Teacher Akmar,personally?" Muka Zura bertukar blur.

"Hah?"

"Serious ni..what do you think?" Tanya Erra sekali lagi.

"Like I said, she's a bit arrogant. But..everybody has their own flaws kan. So..i don't know. She's fine, I guess."

"So now she's fine?"

"Eh,marah kita ke? You said she say sorry to me kan. So I guess it's pretty nice of her. That's it."

"Okay..So,how's your family? Lama awak tak cerita pasal family awak." Ujar Erra menukar topik.

"Owh..macam tu la. Nothing interesting. My parents fight a lot, so it's annoying sometimes you know. Mak pulak selalu luahkan apa yang dia rasa kat saya. Every time they fight, mesti mak sedih, nangis kat saya. It's not that I don't like it... tapi...tah la."

Wajah Zura diteliti lama. Erra memandang lama ke dalam anak mata Zura. Mata yang menunjukkan keresahan dan kesedihan yang tak tergambar.

"It's okay. Let it out. You see,we have to understand that sometimes we have no choice but to go with it,paham tak?"

"Hmm.." balas Zura lemah.

"Ala,janganlah sedih. Dah baca suara hati saya?" Tanya Erra bersemangat.
