Episode 8 FAREWELL WITH CLASSMATES



Three days have passed since the interview. And I


still not going to college because there is still no certainty. Time three


today I use it to practice riding the motorbike left by my late father. So that


in the future I do not have to take public transportation anymore because of the time that I eat


pretty long. Although I first learned to ride a motorcycle in High School time but


mash hasn't gone well. Now just train the bow and drive on the highway. If


there's a chance it'll take care of SIM C.


And today I received a phone call from Pt.


Panasonic Gobel told me if my application and interview were accepted and tomorrow


I'm expected to be present to sign the employment contract. Thank you, Alloh


you have granted all my prayers.


Today is my first day at work. With feeling


anxiety, nervousness and fear of being wrong are mixed into one. At 07:00 I was already


arriving at the company I was welcome to enter the personnel room to read


duties and signing contracts. Tigasku is compiling a spending report


company periodically, daily, weekly and monthly as well as annual reports.


I was placed in a room with 4 other people,


they are Erwin, a 27-year-old still single with a rather serious face, Rony,


25 Years of dating Rena who is also a teammate with my age


22 Years old may also be the same age as me and lastly 32-year-old Wati is married and has 2 children.


The four of them greeted me with welcome and the one in charge of teaching me was


Mbak Wati as team leader.


At 16:00 it was time to go home. We five


separate, and go home to each other. Before I go home I can meet


with Mas Ardi. He asked me how I was doing was there any difficulty or lancer.


I answered confidently that his work was smooth and enjoyable


friends and seniors guide me painstakingly.


“Good then, I'm so happy


heard it.” Ardi expressed his happiness. “Oh yes this is you


want to go home right?”


“Eh .. Actually I want to go straight to campus I want


permission to go to college in the afternoon because I used to go to college in the morning while now


I have to work in the morning, so in order to stay in college I have to go to college


the afternoon hari”


“Ah yes.. You are indeed my most diligent cousin and


passion in learning. But aren't you tired if you still have to go to college


after work?” Ardi was a little worried.


“I will strive to maintain health,


Mas Ardi take it easy!” I said reassuring.


“I'm proud and trust you” Mas Ardi said


rubbed my head. “Actually I'd like to drive you but I'm still there


business so you're okay going home alone?”


“No what mas, as long as I have not been able to call me


have learned to ride the bike but I still have not dared because I have not taken care of the SIM.


Later if there is a chance I will take care of it”


“You're working now, how about taking care of the


my friend is a little expensive than taking care of yourself but you don't have to come along


the exam just came directly and photos in Polres, how are you interested?”


“Iya sounds good that, if any information


further contact me yes mas, when is it usually?”


“Ok I'll call you later, but you need permission


to queue to POLRES”


“Yes too, new time log in already permission”


“Thank you, Mas”


We parted. I walked down the highway only


it is about 100 meters away and looking for transportation with a major in the city S.


Arriving at the college, I met Shinta,


Zilda, Bagas, Anto they immediately stormed me with a pile of questions, he said,


where have I been all this time? Even Zilda and Shinta did not hesitate to hug me


because they miss me.


“I don't think you're going back to college, Fik?”


Zilda's my roommate who's home in Surabaya, my closest friend after


Shinta “I'm lonely now”


“Can there still be Shinta, Zil?” My objection.


“Shinta was busy courting her boyfriend tu” elak Zilda


while the meter glanced at Anto, because they were already dating.


“Yes, Fik do you not pity the same prospective girlfriend


you are!” (while glancing at Bagas), “He was the most languishing during you


absent college” Shinta teased me.


“What we should give them a chance to


chat with each other let go of miss” Anto also gave a suggestion.


“What the hell are you guys! Actually I came this way


permission to change classes afternoons”


“What...??” Shouted them at the same time. And I started


telling me about my current situation that they have to work, they listened carefully.


“Yes, we can't go to college with donk anymore!” word


Bagas with a sad tone.


“Iya, Fika so no exclamation if you do not have”


Zilda was sorry.


“Yes should how else friend, this is an option


what I have to face and live, I ask for your support and prayers may I


always strong through this” they are moved by my words and without feeling


we hugged together like Teletubis. So today I sent a message


to them for after college not to go home but they come along


extra-curricular activities on campus to meet me this afternoon.


And with Shinta, Zilda, Bagas and Anto


waiting outside they led me to the Dean's room to ask permission to change classes


from morning classes to afternoon classes on work grounds. At first Mr. Dean was a bit


objection but with the basic reason that is because the parents are not


he paid for my college.


“Actually you can apply for the program


scholarships and Bidikmisi why should you work?”


“But in my family live me and mom so


no one is looking for lust sir, if not me who else?”


“Iya I know, if that is how it is


You also can not prevent it is important you can still go to college. But you


can not join the student program again like you previously got”


“Iya Sir, I understand and understand and I can


accept it. Thanks for understanding pak”


After that, the three of us left the room, sir


Dean.
