Angel Street Number 23
School Opening Ceremony
“Cultural High School opening ceremony will start now.”.
“Next let's welcome the student on behalf of Jasmin Sutandy who entered with a score of 99 this year, let's invite him to share his learning experience.”.
I raised my head and looked at the stage of the event, even Principal Lidya who was usually known to be serious, slightly nodded his head when he saw me. I certainly won't let him down…
An 80-degree smile, 45-degree hand movements, a 30-degree head nod, coupled with the footsteps I've been practicing for ten years, though not just a glimpse, he said, but the effect will definitely be no different!
“That's him! Jasmin Sutandy!! Jeez, only one point difference from perfect value!!”
“No wonder he is the treasure of the Cultural School this year, look..”.
“Very beautiful! She is also amazingly beautiful!”
Responding to the fans with a Monalisa smile, coupled with the long black hair that I had been specifically tidying up today, made the sound of the exclamations of the men around me even bigger.
Heh heh heh heh... he he he he he... ha ha ha ha.. Come on! Praise me! Puja me! You guys are such a big smelly guy!! I am special! Stand out! Beautiful woman in an unparalleled world - Jasmin Sutandy!! Right, it is like this, not wrong!! Inexhaustible admiration, the tempestuous sound of praise, come even more splendidly!
For the sake of this day, I have spent how much time my youth, for the sake of this day, I have already let down how much of my romantic life, for the sake of this day… it's really incredibly painful! Hu hu hu hu!
But now...stand on the stage, looking at the eyes of the friends below who were letting out the stars in despair, only I alone shine brightly!! Hearing the sound of applause was like a rumble, feeling this priceless honor, all my hard work was not in vain…
I finally reached my first rank in High School! Today is the first day of the SMA opening, which is a good sign!
Sure was! One first rank alone would not be able to satisfy the lust of a Jasmin! Heh heh～fighting strategy is…
Just like at the SMP level, pocketing all the first rank in the SMA level into my pockets!
Even though I was laughing proudly and arrogantly in my heart, but I who was standing on the stage just stroked the corner of my slightly messy skirt while expressing the speech I had trained from the beginning to the thousands of fans below the stage with a slightly timid faceembarrassed, embarrassed,
“Halo everyone, I am Jasmin..”.
“Dear old and new students, the activity you are currently attending is the opening ceremony of the new school year of Sunshine High School!”
Suddenly a discordant broadcast sound from the field. Jeez, the broadcast volume of Sunshine High School across from it is too powerful! Why did it sound so clear to our school?!
“Honored Sunshine School students, let's use the most festive welcome to welcome students on behalf of James Salim who came in with perfect grades onto the stage to speak!”
Sunshine School? Perfect value?! James Salim?!
“Wah! Perfect value! Perfect value!”
“It was unexpected that he entered Sunshine High School with perfect grades!!” Huh huh? Perfect value!! A cold wind swept those two big words into my ears, making me unable to resist shaking.
James's! Salim's!
This nightmare-like name never ceases to appear in the history of my three-year struggle at Junior High, as long as there is him, I will always get a little worse! No matter what the ranking of the Olympic games, English speech, writing competitions or various other exams…
I pretended to be calm and continued to smile at the attendees below, then looked at the headmaster and assistant whose facial features were starting to look gloomy at the side, and friends who started whispering downstairs.
Jasmin, calm down, you need to calm down, now you have to make a speech, right! I took a deep breath, though,
“Halo friends everyone! I am Jasmin Sutandy, I am very happy to be one of the members of Cultural High School. Cultural School as the main school of the top eight of this country has always been a dream only, being able to enter the place of my dreams, then the step towards university level is only a step away!”
There was the annoying male voice of the loud Sunshine School toak as I was speaking.
“The audience, I am James Salim! As one of the Sunshine High School members, we should make the school feel proud of us..”.
James's! You are really sneaky! I can't believe I can't win this simple school opening speech!! Jasmin, spirit!!
“After having school, this good land, I will devote more time and energy to study later in life.”.
“Learning can not just rely on gathering time and energy, I do not assume that sacrifice requires a reply, we have to go out more to find learning skills techniques…” Male voice in toak looks a bit disagree.
James!! Your elementary, just the first day of school you have made a fuss! Jasmin, you can't lose! Heh! I really can't lose to that pretentious guy!
While thinking about how to defeat this man I've never met, I kept smiling and raised my voice towards the slightly noisier friends below, “True, the sacrifice doesn't have to get a reply, but if there is no sacrifice, I am sure there will be no recompense! For example, once mathematics was my weak point even has a record of not passing Junior High, since then I tried to complete 100 sets of exercises, even though my index finger became very swollen, but my grade.”.
It turned out that it was indeed as I expected, exploding endless sounds of praise from below the stage,
“Wah! Impossible!”
“100 sets, I'm new 20..”
“Wow...” The fans below the stage were moved to applause by the achievement of “Heroku”. Ha ha ha, the man on the other side, if you have the ability to try to reply again, this time there is no sense anymore, right?!
Still not waiting for me to start laughing happily in my heart, that amazingly irritating sound spread out here again from the Sunshine School loudspeaker across the street, he said,
“Only a foolish bird will choose such a foolish way of flying, learning it should be a pleasant thing, not the exercise of a hermit ..”
Stupid bird? A hermit! James, you…
Anger ran straight from under my feet to my head, Jasmin, you can't let him win, hang on! Hang on!
Taking a slow breath, then I let out a smile, “Culture School does not need geniuses who feel right themselves, but need humble foolish birds, we will prove it with reality, he said, learning is happiness in the struggle to achieve our dreams, this is the happiest thing!”
“Jasmin, good!”
“Excellent words!”
Looking at the astonished eyes of the headmaster and the joyful cry from below, I maintained an 80-degree smile, a 30-degree head nod, “Thank you! Thank you!”
Ha ha, ha ha! James, just attack!!
“Listen-heard she never stays up, never repeats lessons!!”
“Allet!! He came in with perfect value.”
“Really! Means a little better than the Jasmin that was in our school?! But Jasmin is also very great!”
…
Along the way I went through those comments, my 80-degree smile started to stiffen, unexpectedly James was very popular and had the support of many people! At first I thought the battle was over, unexpectedly.like being watered with a basin of cold water, freezing the fun earlier, I floated down from the stage and continued to drift all the way to Evelyn and Sandy's side.
“Jasmin, are you okay?” Evelyn, my best friend of three years at Junior High saw me and Sandy who was beside him also bit his finger obediently.
“Yes, I'm fine!” It's just weird if it's okay! I seem to underestimate my opponent too much!
You should know for the sake of being the center of everyone's attention, I study incredibly hard every day, but! Still losing to James!! Fucking james! Why do you like to win the first champion with me!
James, such an invincible trash, you and I cannot live together!! Did I meet a sworn enemy who was destined for me? Why did he have to enter the Sunshine School? Why!!
Sandy approached me, her big eyes flashing at me, and did not forget to take out a potato chip from her pocket and put it in her mouth.
“Jasmin, James it's nothing! What if I sacrifice myself to tease her and dump her and this can help you vent my anger?”
Seeing Evelyn who was known to be a male charmer displaying a hand that cut the neck viciously, I hid the feeling of wanting to faint forcefully.
Are beautiful women's brains all made of tofu? Of course I'm not included!
“Really! Tempt him, then dump him! Otherwise let Jasmine do it!” Sandy continued her words happily, making me even more firm on my conclusion.
“Can't, Jasmin is only fascinated by men who like to pretend to be soft and elegant, but in reality it is just insensitive, messy and is a disgusting grumpy man!”
“Shut! Sandy! Evely! You want to find dead!!” I tried to suppress my voice, and looked around worriedly! It was fortunate that the people at the side did not notice us. No one heard it. ha ha ha ha. I felt relieved.
“Jasmin, you are not tired! Wearing a mask every day, I who saw it also found it difficult.”
“What do you say Evelyn.. I am indeed like this.. ha ha ha ha...” I smiled and used my hands to cover my face, after half a second, after, the look on my face became extremely ferocious and glared at Evelyn viciously.
Basic Evelyn! Shutup! If you dare to bring this up in front of others, I will kill you!
“If you don't like me, let him go this time, please do the self-introduction you want to collect today, you also know me more than myself.” Evelyn's eyeballs go round and round, then he immediately dropped a stack of books in my arms.
“I want too, I want to..”.
I still have not reacted, the two friends who promised their lives to follow me, directly threw the book into my arms, then pretended to hear the speech on stage in seriousness!! These two guys! It just so happened that my mood was bad, I really wanted to kick…
“Jasmin is really very good, it is great to be his friend!”
“Really! If there is a chance, I would also like to ask Jasmin!” for direction
“Em...really? If anyone can help I will definitely try my best!”
I almost forgot I was still at the school opening ceremony, I turned my head, not knowing how many fans fell into the trap of the tenderness of my familiar 80-degree smile again, he he…
