Hi, Danny — What's Today?

Weird Student

Hi, before I start the story about my best friend in High School. I want to introduce myself first.

"Kiran Putraaaaa, let's wake up why did you sleep again? Not good for health". Shouted my mother from below.

Hmm, that's my name. Kiran Putra, her son will get longer if I don't get up from this soft bed right away.

Class 10 at the beginning of the semester, yes it's true I'm a new student at one of State X High School in City Y. Age huh?? You know how old I am right now. I was the same age as you guys at the start of 10th grade.

All right, all the introductions. Today I want to write a story about my classmate who is now one of my best friends. Someone who makes me amazed and proud of his figure. Maybe when I'm done telling you, you won't think the same as me. But that's my judgment of her "weird". There was one word I used to say when I met him.

"Hi, Danny. How are you today?" I said every time we met.

^^^Termu,^^^

^^^Danny, Friend.^^^

...****...

I immediately put on my shoes after finishing my breakfast today, my mainstay fried rice. Today is the first day I went to high school, it was nice to graduate with good grades even though I had to go to one of the less desirable State High Schools. The reason I went there was because my parents did not allow me to go to school far from home, as a devoted child and diligently saving, I obeyed the wishes of my parents. Haaaa...

"Kiran's leaving, Maaaa". I screamed from the door of the house.

"Be careful, the MOS attribute has already been brought in, right?". My mother shouted slightly running towards the front door.

"Yes, Boss, safe". I said, giving my thumbs up and smiling at my mother.

My mom gave me a wave of hands and Papa. I left for Papa, only after Papa left for work.

On the way to school I allowed my MOS attribute not to fly. I thought, "Anything later today's activities, exhausting once every early school entrance should experience this useless activity". That's what I think about every time I do MOS activities.

Not feeling we had reached the school gate, I said goodbye to Papa and stepped into the school gate. When it comes to school, I think the design of the school is good just that it is quite old building considering this building has existed from the Dutch era.

I stepped towards the classroom that I would temporarily occupy during the orientation period. Along the way many new children have started to get to know each other and chat with each other. "How the hell, these people can get along with each other so quickly. Is because they were once a Junior High yes, very strange". I said in my heart.

Along the way to class, I didn't see anyone I knew from Elementary School or from my Junior High School here. "It's just me, yes, who wants to go to this High School, it looks like my acquaintances in SD and Junior High School are in the favorite High School". Thought. "People my acquaintances" — yep, I am the type of person who is difficult to make friends, I think friends are a waste of time. So, all this time I only consider my SD and Junior High friends as acquaintances, nothing more.

Now I have arrived in the classroom 10-1, the temporary classroom that I will occupy. I walked in looking for an empty chair. True my guess is that the front seat is still empty, somehow many people do not want to sit at the front desk. In fact, right, by sitting in front of us can absorb more knowledge than behind.

I walked towards the front desk to be able to directly face the blackboard. However, the corner of my eye caught a boy sitting at the back of the right corner. He was staring out the window while, yap — peeling.

The scenery is not exciting in the morning staring at people who are peeling while enjoying the morning sunlight that enters through the window in front of him. I turned my face away for a moment as the boy turned towards me and gave a smirk while still peeling. "disgusting". My word.

A few minutes later, the school bell rang indicating that the start of school was about to begin. I sat up neatly and not long after a boy with glasses came to me. "I'm late, can I sit with you?", he said, wiping the sweat from his forehead.

"Yes, please, there is a ban. No, right!", I said slightly looking at him.

"My name, Jamil, whose name you are", he said, extending a hand.

"Kiran, Kiran Putra". I said without looking at him.

I saw from the corner of my eye, He clenched his raised hand in the air to shake my hand. Then, he smiled as he said, "Greetings, Kiran, I hope we can be good friends, yes". Her speech.

"Hm". My word.

I know, I'm pretty cold to people who have been so hard-earned to be friendly to me. But, how do I always behave like this at all times. I always feel anxious when someone asks me to talk. It's so hard to be normal, I always build a big wall so that no one else can enter my personal life.

Shortly after that brief introduction, a man in his 40s entered my classroom. He was the Guardian of the Class while in my class.

"Morning, sorry I'm a little late, yeah. So, just get on with it. Introduce the name of the Father is Waluyo. I'm here to serve as the Provisional Class Guardian for your class during orientation, so do you have any questions?" Said Mr. Waluyo with his floor.

"He seems like a sports teacher, when viewed from his posture and way of speaking". I said in my heart.

"Nothing, sir, it seems". I speak in the midst of silence.

He turned his head towards me and said, "Alright, please go out and walk towards the ceremonial ground. MOS opening activities will begin immediately please bring your MOS attributes as well. Because after the opening, the big brother will meet you soon to start MOS activities". Then he walked to the classroom door.

I walked right behind Mr. Waluyo towards the ceremonial field. After we arrived, Mr. Waluyo immediately told us to line up neatly. However, suddenly, Mr. Waluyo shouted loudly and pointed towards the back.

Me and everyone there looked behind us, right there, right back there. There was a student who ran as fast as possible towards the school gate. I suddenly realized when I saw the student. "Loh, he was the one who was peeling while enjoying the morning sun". I said in my heart while frowning.

Mr. Waluyo shouted at the security guard in front to thwart the student so as not to escape. However, everyone was surprised how he was able to run so fast and climb up the school gate and then jump over the gate just like that.

He then stopped and looked back to see the guards and some overwhelmed teachers chasing him.

A moment later, I realized that my eyes and eyes were looking at each other. Then, he gave me a smirk that he gave me in class.

"This kid, strange as it may be, what school intention? If you do not intend to do further school. Just wasting time". I said in my heart.

After that he then ran again and not long heard the sound of a motorbike driving away from the school parking lot.

Everyone was silent at the incident, so quickly the man ran away from school.

The other students then whispered to each other saying, "If you want to skip why not start a teaching activity? Why bother jumping the 2-meter-high fence just to skip. Crazy I think he is". A student tells another student.

I, who listened to the conversation, agreed with their words. Why should you bother jumping the fence just to skip, can from before entering school, strange.

That day, we continued to carry out scheduled MOS activities. Time after time passed. But, until the last moment of this first orientation, he also did not come. "Truly truant to the end apparently". I said in my heart.
