"Re! today Ziyan did not go to school, this morning he sent a message to me he said there is a need so please write permission yes in the absent book" said Anggi who immediately approached.
"Where's letter?"
"And he sent a message on his cell phone!"
"But if there's no letter I can't write, the homeroom teacher said we should have proof that he's authorized"
"That's a big racket! just write Re!" said Anggi with a high tone.
Suddenly all the children stared at the two of them including Ratna, he could see Rere's reddened face. Slowly Rere lowered his gaze because he was unable to return Anggi's gaze which glared at him.
"Don't be a good boy Re, you licker! just because you want to praise the teacher for trivial things just in trouble!" anggi Bentak.
"Udahlah Re, teachers also rarely ask for letters, right?" another shouted in defense of Anggi.
"Yes really"
"He was like that, he was looking for face"
"Morning has made a lot of people."
Ratna could clearly see every sneering face, she could also hear their jeers clearly even though their voices were quite slow almost like a whisper.
The disdainful smile and hateful look he often saw but now with more numbers, he slowly looked at Rere and found little Ratna on him.
A head that could only bow, a hand that trembled with fear made his heart beat violently. Within that split second Ratna had only appeared suddenly, voicing what was pent up.
BRACKET....
"If Rere says there has to be a letter it has to be there!" his screams coincided with the buzz on the table.
That loud voice made all eyes on him, while Anggi who was right in front of him could only stare in surprise.
"You-you're nothing at all? make me surprised" said Anggi after waking up.
"I said. if the word Rere must have a letter means there must be, so if there is no letter it means Ziyan is absent without alpha alias" Ratna repeated in a slower voice.
"Why do you remember Rere Na anyway? it's just a trivial matter, the same period of one class or the problem of absence is so noisy" said another.
"Rere is just doing his job as a secretary, after all why are you complicated? after all who are absent Ziyan" replied Ratna.
"But Ziyan is our friend! if written alfa later Ziyan can be punished" Anggi.
"Keep Rere's not your friend?" reply Ratna shouted.
The whole class was suddenly silent, and so was Anggi who could not answer the question.
"If Rere recounts what you and his teacher said the letter that would be mistaken would be Rere" he continued.
"Heh, don't be a bad luck hero! that's the risk of becoming a secretary" said Anggi.
Like a whip that struck her heart, it caused an unbearable pain that made Ratna lose her temper.
"Hehe, don't be a fucking asshole like Ziyan! he won't thank you just because you belain him in a small matter like this, a bad boy like Ziyan only benefits your kindness! he's never been interested in a lowly girl like you!" ratna replied with a contemptuous look.
"You..excessive!"
Gep
Ratna quickly caught the hand of Anggi who was about to slap him, their strength was very far away. Ratna who is used to working is not a match for ordinary girls like Anggi, especially Ratna is now in negative mode.
Brucks
With just one push Anggi had already fallen to the floor, immediately his other friends approached to help him stand up.
"You're so rude Na! you can't have the same kind of friends yourself just because of the Rere?" ask one of his classmates.
"Rude? you don't see him slapping me?" ratna answered with a shout.
All eyes were staring at him, some of them were hateful gazes that he had noticed since. But Ratna returned each of those gazes with her angry eyes without the slightest fear.
"Why? you all don't accept? if you dare here all my opponents!" he challenged all the students of the class.
But none of them dared to go forward, slowly Anggi was helped by his friend to sit down and say nothing more. For a few minutes Ratna was still able to look at every child in the class, making sure they were silent so they did not dare to look at her.
That day, the class ended in complete calm. Although there was an empty hour, no one dared to make a fuss when Ratna told them to do the recording tasks that had been given by the teacher before.
"Thank you Na, today you want to defend me" Rere said as they were on their way home.
"No need to thank you, I didn't do it for you" Ratna replied.
"For whom?"
"For myself, I hate people like them. Though obviously they are wrong, but because of one dominant person they end up doing the same thing" Ratna said.
"Just thank you, you were really cool!" said Rere while smiling.
"Look! don't let others bully you, if you think you're right then never be afraid to make a sound"
"But... Anggi is the most beautiful boy in the class, he is popular and rich. I don't dare. " admit Rere.
"Then why would this ordinary me be able to make a silent class?" ask Ratna.
"It's because I dare to say what I don't like, as pretty as she is even though many support her but they are only good at bluffing" he continued.
"Alright. I understand" Rere replied quietly.
"As a thank you, how about I buy you some juice?" ask Rere.
"Maybe, how about we make our own juice at work? didn't you promise to stop by?"
"True, let's go!" shouted Rere excitedly.
By holding Ratna's hand they leave, having a friend like Ratna makes Rere very grateful. Just one and that's just Ratna he already feels he has his own hero, like the hero in most movies that will come to his aid when he needs it.
The job at the tavern was finished without him knowing, it felt like time was running quickly in a time when a lot of work he had to work. Tumben once that day the store was crowded so Ratna dissolved in her work without rest, knowing her body felt tired when Hamdani told her it was time to go home.
After saying goodbye Ratna immediately stepped away from the store, not expecting a motorcycle to suddenly stop beside her and it was Amus.
"You just got home?" tanyakanya.
"Where are you from?"
"Finish playing futsal"
"Oh, what a coincidence.Then let's go home together" Ratna said.
"Eh what are you doing?" sergeant Amus suddenly.
"Back with you, our house is one way"
"No! I want to go somewhere first, you're used to walking" replied Amus, turning the bike back on and passing by.
"Amus.. I will curse you to frog!" ratna shouted annoyed.
