Grizzled

Episode 1's

Blistering. If I could just faint, even if I was just pretending. That way I can get through this ceremony and lie down in the UKS. Paskibra just finished his job. The ceremony was only half way. The longest and most boring part has not been done. Yes, the speech of the ceremonial builder. Puh, imagine that I'm instantly vaporized.

"Wooh! Early in the morning, really, it's lackluster!" whispered Yasinta who was lined up next to me.

"Sad, this is because of you," I whispered as I wiped my wet eyes, "you're crazy, Yas!"

Yasinta held back a laugh. Glad he saw my suffering.

"Sorry, Ra. I promised, but last night at my house there was a rolling power outage. I can't do your job like I promised" he replied.

"Well, great! Then the other members of the group were also difficult to contact and finally I last night made a report for our group, as well as reviewing the novel for the race representing the class. Oh, forget my math PR, where I might have touched it, so good!"

"Sorry, Ra."

"Imagine it at nine I just finished reading the novel. If you know this, I don't want to make a reviewer represent our class."

"If you know so no need to be too serious about making the recension, just carelessly the important thing is there."

"I'm sorry, I've had a marathon of reading that novel for almost twelve hours and I don't want to do it half-and-half."

"Yes already, dong! What do you want?"

The rattan cane was out in front of me and Yasinta. The fierce face of Mr. Hasibuan gave a warning. Yasinta lowered his head, gulping. I just kept quiet. After making sure we were in order, Mr. Hasibuan again combed through the rows of students while checking the completeness of their uniform attributes. Thank God he didn't check my socks.

The ceremony went on as it should. The scorching sun, drowsiness, achy feet standing is really the perfect combination to trigger fainting. At the end of the ceremony, when the line should be dissolved, there was an additional announcement. Ah, yes I just fainted, I can't take it anymore!

"Announcement! In the framework of language months and increased literacy activities, the school has held a reading competition and novel review. Here are the winners with the best reviewer work."

To hear that information, I stood up enthusiastically. The PMR officer who came to help me back on the right grumbled. No, I'm not fainting. The friends in my class seemed hopeful, the rest were pessimistic, some didn't even know I had finished the recension. Just incredible!

Third place has been announced. The second-place champion is next-class.

"Well, if champions three or two can't let alone champion one" said one of my friends.

"Vote one, a reviewer of Darwin's novel The Moon, won by an eleventh-grade MIPA one, congratulations to Shira Amanda!"

Cheers of euphoria instantly broke out from my class ranks. I shut my mouth in disbelief. My friends embrace me with anxiety over this little victory.

"Well, I never thought you could finish reading a novel that thick for less than twenty-four hours!"

"Yes, there are many other tasks! Even if perfunctory but can win. Very surprised, you!"

I'm just smiling. Haha, just so bad he said! Do I look so lazy that they can't believe I'm working on it? I heard envious whispers from the next class.

"Hm, the copy from the internet must be good."

But, yes, no matter what! My friends just can't believe that I'm doing it myself let alone anyone else. I just ignored it. After all, considering this race info that was just delivered yesterday definitely made them think that I was cheating. Moreover, I have never read a book that must be reviewed. Again, I say, I don't care what they think! I have borne the fruits of my efforts. A small parcel bearing the words champion one moved into my hands. Without peeking I already knew that it was a book, but I don't know what book.

Ceremony over. We went back to our classes. Guess who was the most excited about the prize? Of course it wasn't me. The parcel has been contested throughout the class.

"Come fast, unboxing! Unboxing!"

"It's a parcel, it should be unwrapping!"

"Yes, hurry unwashing!"

"Unwrapping, *****!"

Finally they were busy arguing and forgetting the parcel. I opened the parcel. True, the contents of the book, three books, but I did not think that it turns out that one of them is ... the latest novel by my favorite author who is now a best seller! Geez! Unimagined how high I jumped from excitement!

"Well, I thought it was a pile of money" Yasinta said.

"Haha, dream!" timpal. Just so he knows yes! It's worth more than a pile of money!

"Please pay attention, guys!" exclaim Eagle, our class leader.

"Cieee needs attention" ledek Sindi.

"It's serious, Sin," replied the Flat Eagle. Sindi grumbling.

"Grabbing from Ms. Listiyah, the reading corner of the class will also be contested starting this week. Assessment includes design, creativity, and book collections. To that end, the team assigned to handle the reading angle was immediately followed up, "the Eagle said, "the reading angle team, is there a report?"

"Yes," said Fina, "later after school we will take the bookshelf ordered in the furniture of the Dila family, probably tomorrow morning soon installed."

"Oh, Dila's furniture? Give me a discount on the price of a friend, Dil?" said Arnita, class treasurer. Dila smiled wryly. Say no, heavy to say yes.

"And for the collection of books, each child brings one reading book. While that's just an appeal for reading angles. Please the other class completeness team continued its performance, there must be a report of every discussion," added Elang.

"Wheel!"

Discussion over. Oh yeah, my team takes care of the longing how are you? From the first want to look for small plants to be displayed in front of the class it still feels discourse only.

"Shir."

"Oi?" I woke up from my daydream.

"Your book is temporarily placed in the corner read first huh? Later if the reading stock meets you can bring it," said Eagle.

"Okay, these two are indeed my intentions for class, the other one I brought first, I want to read at home," I replied. He's nodding.

"Thank you for the hard work, when others don't want to be given this responsibility because there are still many tasks, you are willing to accept it even though you have never read a book that you have to review."

Reflex I salute to the Eagle. People who appreciate should be appreciated.

"Just relax, reading and writing is my hobby, it's just a joke" I replied.

"Calm down, for the physics report of our group that Yasinta should be working on and you have me handle," said Elang as he busily rummaged through the contents of the map. What did he say just now?

"This is the third sheet you should be doing, but since you've already made the recension for the class, so it's taken over Yasinta, but you know that Yasinta didn't have time to do it? Therefore I took care of it," said the Eagle handed over the report sheet.

Ahahaha! I suddenly want to chew on this report!

"Don't have to say yes?" tanyanya polo's. I showed my calloused finger in front of him.

"Now, so curl my fingers this much!"

"Lho's? You made it too?!"

"Yes, after Yasinta told me that the report could not be completed and you are difficult to contact where I might be able to sleep!"

"I'm hard to contact because I made this report, you know! So don't be strong-witted everything is done alone!"

Lho? He's? Missing is the figure of the Eagle I respect, now grumbling chattering without wanting to be denied.

"I don't want to risk it!"

"Well, say thanks or what I helped!"

Well, this bickering continues, fighting over whose writing should be collected.

 ****

Early in the morning, regardless of possession, I arrived at school. If no one had come, I saw Fina and Nabilah on the stairs. Oh, yeah, the reading corner team.

"You buy knick-knacks for reading corner decoration," replied Fina when I asked. I just nodded in passing. Heh? Is the shop open at this hour? I don't know.

It turns out that in the classroom there are already Rifani and Tria who are being nagged by Eagle. Ah, both of them! My men! The team of yearnings who always forget to bring plants. Yes, anyway, Eagle is a firm leader but would pity if this morning has been rumored.

"Yes, Lang, we're going to get the plants at Rifani's house right now!" reply Tria. Rifani just nodded.

"I'm coming!" I scream from the front door.

"Rame-rames just to grab one pot? Two people is enough!" said the Eagle looking at me sharply, "you help me put up the shelf!" his orders. I swallowed spit. The Rifani who passed by next to me whispered, "very sensitive, Ra!"

"For PMS maybe, Fan," I replied. Tria chuckled softly. The eagle was watching us. They both hurriedly left. Be the awkward atmosphere wrapping around the atmosphere as the two leave the classroom. I stared at a pair of hexagon-shaped wooden shelves on the same knee-high side that were still on the floor.

"What to help, anyway? If you just put up a shelf like this, you can be alone, right?" my pretext. The gaze of the eagle's eyes that was really unpleasant led to me. The nail he was about to put on the wall fell just for the sake of glaring at me like that.

"Tuh, fetch! I've been up and up the table like this lazy to go down!"

"Well? why so high? You really like our pain - we are short body huh?!" namelku.

"How tall are you, anyway? This time just isn't nyampe?"

WHOA! TAKE BERANTEM!

"Eh, these nails are good to be stabbed into you huh?! Here, Lang! My emotions!"

"That's it, really, emotion! PMS again, right?"

AZWZWZW WHATEVER, LANG! DIVORCED!

"In a moment, Shir, you put the shelf position first, let me see from afar, it's about tilted or not" said the Eagle. I just complied, reluctant to argue any further. This hexagon rack turned out to be lighter than it looked, but it was quite enough if it was thrown at the Eagle if he started fussing again.

"Up, up!" he exclaimed, "not the left, the right is a bit up!"

"Yes, dong! Give me a clear command!" grumbling. She grinned.

"Even, enough!" he said then again began hammering nails according to the best position. I observed the design of this shelf.

"Why should the shape of a hexagon?" my many.

"Either, the reading corner team uses the honeycomb theme according to the color of our classroom walls," replied the Eagle still seriously hammering. The sound of the hammer's thump on the nail echoed into the entire room.

"Honeycomb's got a lot of hexagons, why are there only two?" ask again. The eagle turned the eyeballs.

"You think buying something like this is cheap? How much cash do you pay per week?" insinuations. I grinned in response. Even I've been delinquent on cash for the last month.

Fina and Nabilah finally came. A small bag of plastic flower ornaments has been purchased.

"This is the quote, Lang. The shelf receipt I gave Arnita, ", said Fina.

"Hn," answered the short Eagle, still busy with his work.

Soon after one by one friends came, also commenting on our new reading angle. Yasinta buzzed, for the sake of playing a bee in this honeycomb-themed class.

 ****

Two minutes before the bell came home, I immediately packed up. Yasinta and the others began to leave their respective benches.

Tumben, usually a submissive eleven MIPA child - did not come home before the bell actually rang - is now not the case. Especially Yasinta, just leave without accompanying me. All right, everybody's in a hurry.

As the last to leave the classroom, I was responsible for shutting down all the electronics - the wind fan, LCD projector, and sound system that had been used at the last hour. Otherwise, the chatty chairman would have nagged at length

I came out and was stunned, to find the atmosphere outside the class ... This where is it? Thought.

There is no second floor terrace with black iron bars. There is no view of the headland trees. The opposite building that should be similar to the building I was standing in was visible .. seedy? Looks old and unkempt, I didn't even recognize that it was part of my school building. Just be right!

Where am I???

.Seriate.
