Today Jeff returns to Indonesia to take care of
university admission files. It has been 10 years after he left this country, Indonesia is already very much different from the last time he remembered. In the past, there was a playground around this area, but now all of them have been turned into tall buildings. Many shopping malls and luxury apartments. Office buildings also dominate along the eye line.
“Sister Jeff..”
The young man's voice sounded out loud from a distance.
“Kak, why are you standing there? Hurry up here.” said Daniel half-screaming
“Hey, Niel.” Jeff approached her with a smile. Daniel is his sister. 3 years ago he returned to Indonesia first because of his desire to attend school here.
“You go anywhere brother, did you forget the direction here so it took a very long time?”
“Hmm, maybe. Can you show your sister this way?” jeff said to her while doing a little
cute behavior.
Daniel scrunched his forehead while giving a half-disgusted look. “ You know, brother. If you weren't my brother, I might have punched you.
Because he basically likes to prank Daniel, Jeff continues to give his cute face.
“Niel~~ “
“Aaaaa~ brother please stop... I'm really disgusted to see you like that.”

Daniel escorts Jeff around, showing him where his brother takes care of the transfer papers and other documents. Then they went back around to see prospective campuses where Jeff would start his studies. The university is on the left of Daniel High School
Jeff's destination is a foundation university located in the same complex as Daniel High School. The campus has 4 Faculties namely; Faculty of Fine Arts and Design, Faculty of Performing Arts, Faculty of Film and Television, and Graduate Program. Jeff is interested in design and drawing
choosing Faculty of Fine Arts and Design. Although different buildings but they can be together when time off and play basketball on the court that is between the two buildings.
The visuals of the brothers cannot be underestimated, although the majority of them are male students, but many eyes are staring at them when walking across the field and entering Daniel High School Building.
“Hei Niel..” call Daniel's friends as the sisters pass through the second-class hallway, next to the music classroom.
“Oo Echa , June, Doni. You guys taking dance classes? Why did I just know?”
“Yes, me, Doni and June are preparing for the competition in Singapore next December. Are you not
coming along? By the way, who is it?” ask Echa without further ado
“Oh, I forgot. This is my brother. Jeffri, just call Jeff bang. Just enrolled in university today.”
“Hai, I'm Jeff.” Sweeps are cold
“E-eum, ha-hello kak.” As they courteously but without looking Jeff in the eye, Jun instead circulated his gaze in the other direction as Jeff tried to stare at him.
“Ka-we excuse us first. Please continue. Ma-maf interrupting.”
Daniel who was confused by his friend's attitude just stared at them running back into the classroom with Jeff who was astonished by Daniel's friends.
“Hey, Niel is your classmate?”
“Eum. There is ap.?”
“Danielaaaaa” screamed a shrill voice from behind them
“Naomi..” Daniel's face instantly brightened when the brunette boy sebahu greeted him while
smile widely.
"oiya, this is my sister."
“Good morning brother.I Naomi ” Sapa Naomi politely while reaching out her hand about to shake hands but shyly.
“I'm Jeff. You're Daniel's classmate?” ask Jeff to Naomi
“Not. I was in third grade, Daniel and I were in the same club, which is why I knew him.” Answer
Naomi shy
Jeff looked at his sister who was rubbing Naomi's hair while smiling brightly. Doesn't his sister hate cute things? Jeff smiled faintly at Daniel's behavior. Naomi is adorable, everyone agrees. Even Daniel who, well, I don't know.
“NAOMI! IS THIS THE RESULT OF YOUR PRACTICE DURING THIS WEEK?” shouted the Korean teacher who was disappointed in Naomi because her dance always misses one note from the choreo to be tested. The student in Teacher Kim's class fell silent. The atmosphere became haunted when Teacher Kim was angry. He didn't even hesitate to yell and curse at his students.
“Ma-maaf”
“Can you just apologize? I'm sorry for choosing you as the representative of our High School. Are you stupid, Ha?!”
“Ma-sorry to me.” Naomi held back her crying.
“I'm tired of teaching unskilled students like you. It's up to you how. I'm sick of this useless class.”
Naomi's cry broke out as Teacher Kim left the classroom. Doni, Vishnu, and Noval immediately approached Naomi who was now sobbing while crouching.
“It’s okay, Na, don't cry. You've tried your hardest.” Entertain Doni and Vishnu who rubbed Naomi's red cheeks. But Naomi continued to cry until her face turned white, deathly pale.
“Ma-sorry friends, because I'm you guys who were affected.”
“It's okay. Stop crying, we know you've tried, I'll always be with you, let's try again, don't cry again.” It was Vishnu who kept hold of Naomi's hand until some of the students left the class. Doni and Noval are out of class, knowing that Vishnu is stealing Naomi's heart
right now, so they don't want to interfere.
‘Naomi, wasn't that Niel's classmate this morning?’ Jeff's inner voice was stopped when he heard the screams from the dance club. The sweet girl who greeted her sister this morning is now crying as much as her friend's hug. Why do I feel sorry for that boy? I can't watch him cry like that.
“Hei!!! What do you think Jeff?” jeff shouted to himself at once.

The Campus
“Include me Jeffri, just call Jeff, transfer student. Please help.”
Jeff's brief introduction left the class speechless. Not because of his introduction, but most of the students who were there were a little afraid of Jeff. He was indeed handsome, had good body proportions and a gallant stature. However, his fierce face made some students reluctant to look at him directly. He did not smile much, even his facial expression was cold.
“Welcome, Jeff, I'm Hans, now you can take a seat wherever you like. And we'll start soon
start class today.” Hans said, the class coordinator was friendly.
“Hai.” Greet the young man next to him Jeff smiled as he lowered his head
“I Yohan, where did you move from? Why take this class?” ask Yohan.
“If I'm Made, but not from Bali.”
“Hai Yohan, Made , I'm from America.”
“Wooahh, cool. Must be your English well.”
Jeff just smiled. “You're not afraid of me?”
“Why?” ask Yohan plain
“Iya, why fear?” add Made
“You can see some friends here who ignore my views because they are afraid of me.”
Yohan and Made circulate their gaze toward their classmates and move on to Jeff. Indeed, his friends seemed to avoid looking at Jeff.
“Wait a minute.” Then Yohan ran towards some young men in the front row of their class. Not long after, he returned with a stifled laugh
“Hey, Mad, do you know what the kids say? Them, hahahahhahahaaaaa”
“Solve your sentence first, Yohan.”
“It's too funny, you know, they. pffttt.
Made who saw Yohan like that laughed along. “You're crazy.”
“They think Jeff looks like a thug, hahahhahaaa.”
Their laughter broke, and even Made and Yohan sat down to laugh out loud and attract the attention of other friends.
“You know, this joke is the best as long as I arrive in Indonesia.” said Jeff who laughed.
“hei duo spare, please calm down. Class will start.” Hans told Yohan and Made.
“Duo change?” Jeff again laughed out loud but with a stifled voice
