Don't Consider Us Weak

Episode Six:Day (1)

Cring....

Doraemon cartoon-shaped clock vibrates on the nightstand. The owner of the room did not move at all, he still snored on the mattress with his mouth slightly open letting saliva out and wet the pillow. The clock shifted little by little and finally fell to the floor causing the sound of glass breaking and the clock still ringing.

  The forehead of the young man who is still asleep is wrinkled and begins to be uncomfortable with the sound of his clock. He got up and sat down, wiping the remaining saliva in the corner of his lips and rubbing both eyes cleaning the dirt attached to the eye occasionally evaporate. When both of his legs came down from the mattress, accidentally stepped on the clock until it did not ring again.

The young man looked down at the floor with a bang. It has to justify its hours again. Glancing at the nightstand there was a cellphone lying there and the phone was taken. The young man immediately stood up straight, both eyes perfectly rounded and mouth gaping, shocked. It's already 06:45 in a minute that the school will enter just a few minutes.

He quickly picked up his school uniform and ran to the bathroom to get changed. This is a habit that often befalls a young man named Muhammad Eric Sentosa. If he's late for school then the only way is not to shower. He just brush his teeth, wash his face, wear fragrances, styling his straight hair back using hair oil to be neat.

After finishing copying the school uniform, Eric was so excited to wear footwear, not forgetting the money and also the bag. Eric lives in an apartment that his parents rented not far from Eric's school at SMK Cemerlang. Today is the third day of his new school and last month Eric was 15 years old. The young man stopped by the doorway remembering something left behind and went back in to pick up the jacket that his older sister Eli had given him.

  Eric sped his steps down the stairs. When out of the apartment the shoelaces he was wearing came off making him shake, he squatted justifying the loose shoelaces. From the third floor there was a person who poured dirty water down without looking down if there was anyone. The guy threw away the dirty water and it hit Eric.

The young man saw all his clothes were wet and dirty, not only his clothes, the jacket he was wearing was also wet. The man who was throwing dirty water was looking down and was surprised what he was doing. Before Eric looked up, the man rushed into the apartment. Eric turned and looked up to find the culprit who had poured dirty water down but he did not find the man at all.

Today Eric was so unlucky and he was late to school with a bad performance. Eric endured the embarrassment while taking public transport to the brilliant SMK school so many people looked at him in disgust and judged the boy very dirty.

The bus stopped right in front of the SMK Cemerlang building and the front warehouse was already sealed with a padlock attached to the gate. Eric stomped his legs annoyed, why is his third day really shit?. Was he cursed by God?.

One idea darted in Eric's mind, he ran through the back building that is SMP. Although his appearance was dirty and wet he did not care about it the important thing he remained in school. Eric frown to make sure he will go up the fence that is usually passed by students ditching.

"Bismillah."he murmured in prayer hoping to succeed with his plan. When both hands were already holding the fence and were about to rise suddenly there was the voice of an old man with a distinctive whistle sound, the security guard. Eric was surprised and did not so to go up the fence.

Security guards at SMP Negeri. He approached Eric was standing full of fear, his legs a little bit begetar when he saw the security guard who managed to sneak trying to get inside. With a rogue face, the security guard folded his hands and glared at Eric.

"You want to run away, right?"the guard said a little.

Eric was surprised not to play, "bu-not sir. You misunderstood. I wanted to go in instead of running away" said Eric honestly still begetar. The security guard did not believe Eric's admission to the school. Just look at his appearance now so dirty and disheveled.

"You lied. If you don't run away why are your uniforms all dirty and wet?"

"Th-this?"

"Follow me!"cut the Security Guard was firm against Eric. The young man had resignedly agreed to the word of the security guard. A security guard named Udin pulled out Eric's forced hand while Eric followed the guard with a lethargic, uninspired look.

Udin reported to the counseling teacher in his room, SMK Cemerlang. Dashingly he said to the middle-aged woman wearing a blue hijab. "What's this?"the question was a little confused and saw Eric next to the security guard was full of dirt and wet.

Before the security guard said a no-no to Eric. The young man immediately said that he wanted to go to school when he heard the whistle from behind, he did not go into the school through the guardrail. You know, if the security guard would come up to him and ask.

"Children who often truant are always smart to talk mom. This child needs to be punished otherwise he will continue to truant with dirty clothes like this." said the security guard did not want to lose. Eric looked cynically at the security guard who seemed to say no.

Counseling teachers could only watch the two of them alone. Feeling both ears were hot he decided to look at this quarrel before it became big. "Stop!"the counselling teacher was standing in the middle of the security guard and Eric. He looked at the two in turn.

Sighs for a moment. "Sir Udin,"he called it soft, "better. You're back on duty, let me take care of this child."then smile thinly showing the dimples of his cheeks. Mr. Udin's face was slightly reddened to see the counseling teacher if he smiled, The security guard was like a thug who was not sixpack returned the smile of the counseling teacher and said back to duty.

When the obnoxious security guard actually went in front of Eric. Eric breathed a sigh of relief being able to get away from that annoying security guard and thought how could such a person be accepted to work as a school security guard. It's like a hoax news spreader.

The counselling teacher sat on his stool and Eric sat opposite the counselling teacher who he thought was beautiful and sweet.  Eric won't fall for the teacher here. "What does Mr. Udin say?"Eric shaking.

"It's not true ma'am. The security guard was so annoying that maybe I truant on my third day at school let alone I'm a good boy and never truant." said Eric honestly. The teacher nodded and said, "why is your uniform wet and dirty?"tanyakanya.

"Because there are people who want to throw dirty water down through the balcony of the apartment. That guy didn't see if anyone was downstairs?. Without checking first, he threw away the dirty water and hit me. So it got wet and I didn't get to copy it because it was too late for school." Eric explained recounting the incident this morning to the counselling teacher. The woman recorded it on the blank paper that was on the table.

"Well, I'll forgive you" said the teacher, who let Eric breathe a sigh of relief and was not punished severely.

"Whose name?from what class?"ask the kosneling teacher to look at Eric flat.

Eric smiled fluffyly. "Muhammad Eric Sentosa's. From grade 10 of Accounting-02" he was proud. The teacher finished recording the report on the blank paper. He looked at Eric's goal, "Eric."Call him.

"Yes ma'am."he replied that the courtesy may not forget his sweet smile.

"You need to clean the women's toilets and change into clean uniforms!"his scream suddenly rose to his feet telling Eric to clean the girls' toilet and change clothes.

Eric who heard that from his teacher gave a quick glance, he was very surprised.

The deg!
