After breakfast, Khalid immediately cleaned all the dishes and glasses on the dining table. Tama helped her and took her to the kitchen. They both look capable of working together. In his heart Harjo was very satisfied with what he saw. Although Tama and Khalid are not siblings, they easily get along well. That's what Harjo expected. He hopes that their friendship will be more closely intertwined until someday.
At ten in the morning, Harjo and Tama arrive at school. Khalid had departed at half-seven.
Harjo faced the Headmaster. He intends to register Tama in order to go to school. In the Headmaster's room, there was an Indonesian teacher who was talking and intended to get out of the Principal's Room. But he abandoned his intentions after seeing Harjo's arrival.
" Mr. Harjo.there's a need What are you looking for me?" the headmaster asked haughtily.
" I'm sorry, Mr. Zam.. Earlier I apologized for my sudden arrival. I'm here to enroll my granddaughter in order to attend this school." replied Harjo with a trembling body. He feared Zamani, the Headmaster refused to accept Tama.
" What?! Which other granddaughter did you bring, Mr. Harjo. You sent your grandkids here from the beginning, and eventually only cause problems at this school. Do you remember, the first Grandson you enrolled here, and the current one, and you still want to enroll your granddaughter to this school again?" sentil Wirya Indonesian teacher who has long taught at SD School Bangun Jaya.
Harjo gelagepan heard Wirya's words. It seems like he can't say anything. He knew, when he sent Reza to school. Reza is known as a wayward child. Loved the fuss in class and almost hurt his Master at that time. Harjo's name as Wali's student and the person in charge of Reza became tarnished. And while enrolling Khalid, he was almost about by some of the senior Masters on the grounds of not wanting the events of the past to reoccur.
Luckily Zamani, the Headmaster who had only been in office for about two years, was willing to accept Khalid because he saw Khalid as a polite and kind child.
But over time, the problem occurred because Harjo could not pay for the school building donation. He then asked for leniency to the Headmaster, finally the Headmaster granted Harjo's request. Khalid was free to pay the building's donations. Some teachers are becoming increasingly dislike of Harjo. They then try to influence the Headmaster to get Khalid out of the School.
Wirya is one of the Master's most intent on getting Khalid out. Because he was so vengeful with Harjo. As a result of the actions of Reza Harjo's grandson, he was almost disabled because Reza threw a stone the size of a ping pong ball into his head. Her grudge awakens when she meets Harjo while enrolling in Khalid School two years ago.
He had tried not to accept Khalid, but He was powerless because the Headmaster still wanted to receive the khalid to be able to remain in school. But his desire to get Khalid out of the school was still in his mind. He scolded Khalid many times and always searched for his mistakes, but Khalid persisted. His desire for school did not shrink his mentality even though he always faced problems at school.
" Mister Wirya, don't talk like that. Poor Pak Harjo. He's so old, what's your worth talking to him like that?" zamani mediates.
Harjo became a little relieved, he really hoped Zamani defended him and received Tama to be able to school at his school.
" Mr. Zam.. You don't know what his granddaughter did to me.. I know more about the past. That's why I don't like this guy" Wirya said with a little firmness.
" Mr. Wirya, it's over. Your past with the boy is over. Don't talk anymore. What if he doesn't accept it and comes here and hurts you? He could be a thug now or even a great man. Let me handle this. Please Mr. Wirya come out and let me talk to Mr. Harjo. Besides he's here to see me, not Mr. Wirya."
" Good.I'll be out. Excuse me!" wirya said then left the Headmaster's room.
Harjo is getting better. He was very grateful to the Headmaster for defending him. However, there are things that make Harjo's heart crowded. After Wirya walked out of the room, the Headmaster said to her.
" Hajo sir.. That's right what Mr. Wirya said. Mr. Harjo's grandchildren are only making a burden on this school. I'm not going to discuss your old Grandson. But the one now. No problem with the kid. L like it. He's a polite and diligent boy. He's smart, too. He could have perfected the name of this school with the achievements he produced. But the school here is not a fantastic one. While Mr. Harjo has been waiting for several months for the monthly beaya of Khalid's school. And it could be that Mr. Harjo enrolls your grandchild's school. Then with what will you pay for all the school beaya of Pak Harjo's grandchildren?"
" Eh.I know I haven't paid Khalid's school monthly salary, Mr. Zam. But I promise I'll pay off SPP Khalid's arrears."
" I'll do it, Mr. Zamani. I promise I'll work harder to earn money for Khalid and Tama, my grandchildren."
" What's the guarantee, Mr Harjo?"
" I'm sorry, Sir. I have no guarantee. I'm old and have nothing else to use for bail."
" Hemhh.so so. All right, Mr. Harjo. Maybe there was nothing we could expect from you. Tell you what, sir. I'll give you a choice. If Mr. Harjo approves, it will definitely make your burden light."
" choice? Is that his choice, Mr Zamani?"
" Your grandson you will register, I accept. But there's a condition."
" What's the condition, sir? I wish I could qualify it."
" The condition is, Mr. Harjo must pay off Khalid's school arrears this month as well. I'll give you three weeks from now. And for registration you just pay the registration fee alone and school uniforms of One and a half million. Because every year the monthly school beaya is up, SPP for your grandchildren who will list is also different. Five thousand each month. How, Mr Harjo?"
" Uh.. Three weeks is a tight time for me, Mr. Zam. Please give me half a semester to pay it off."
" What?! Half semester?! It's great that you want to negotiate with Me. I don't want to. Anyway I'll just give you three weeks. More than that, Khalid I had to take out and your grandchildren can't enroll in this school!"
" Ba.baik, Mr. Zam. I promise to pay it off in three weeks. But I beg you, so that Tama can go to this school."
" Well, you bring the registration money and the uniform money like I said?"
" I'm sorry, I don't have one right now. Can I owe you first? My grandson wants to go to school. He is also old enough. I beg you, accept him in this school, sir."
" All right, Mr. Harjo. I accept Tama school here. But you have to promise to pay all the bills. Note yes, Mr. Harjo. What is the nominal you should look for, for the school of your two grandchildren."
Harjo's heart was like being pierced by a sharp thorn. His mind was full of rubbish. He walked out with a limp body. His footsteps that are not perfect anymore like before make it even more crowded. Tama who had been standing next to the outside door, heard the conversation of Harjo and Wira. He was sad to hear everything. He then welcomed his Grandfather while holding the hand of Harjo who had been wrinkled to go home to Harjo.
