INNOCENCE

Discussions

Gary and Sofia are doing group work again. Open the actual group work because they are doing it each, without any discussion.

"finished?" deri's mother's question was addressed to Gary and Sofia whom she had noticed earlier.

The two of them were not sure if the question was addressed to them, but Mother Deri's gaze had already shown that it was indeed addressed to them.

"still not ma'am" replied Sofia.

"yet" replied Gary.

"the group work is yes son" Ms. Deri said without explaining the meaning because Gary and Sofia certainly understood the meaning.

"yes ma'am" replied Sofia.

after saying so, their Physics teacher went outside the classroom to the teacher's office and did not return until the Physics study hours were completed. During that time, Gary did not return to his actual seat and did not do his job. Sofia also did not dare to invite him to discuss if he continued to ignore it.

"Sof, we don't understand this part. Can you explain it to us?" ask Dani and Nate his group mates.

"ohh.. Which one?" Sofia immediately stops her activities and learns the questions they are asking. Then he explained to them in detail and several times ascertained whether they understood the explanation.

"thank you ya Sof" Dani and Nate said simultaneously.

"okay, same thing"

'if my groupmates are like that' Sofia said she was herself.

Sofia does all her group assignments, she makes two copies, one for her and one for Gary. At the close of the study hours, Sofia gives a sheet containing the answer to Gary.

After school, Sofia and her other friends picket the class. Sofia gets her turn.

"what's the answer paper?" Sofia picked up a paper containing answer sheets located on the floor. His expression instantly changed when he found out the contents of the sheet of paper.

"what's that?" ask his friend

"it's okay" Sofia replied lying. At that time, you could say Sofia was very angry because her hard work to work on the problem and copy it twice was not appreciated. 'Personal problems should not be brought into learning problems. It was the most stupid act according to Sofia. The time because he broke up until he did not receive help from Sofia, anyways that cut off the relationship is he himself'. That's what Sofia thought during the sweep.

Sofia took the paper and threw it away.

The next day, just before the Physics lesson began, Gary approached Sara and asked her to do her job.

"weren't you in the same group as Sofia? ask him the same. He must know better" answered Sara.

"ah! come on Sar, explain first or you don't do it later I'll learn" he said again.

"ask as Sofia is there" Sara encourages Gary to quickly leave her place. Sofia heard when her name was mentioned by Sara. He turned his head and when he saw Gary there, he could guess what was going on.

"is your job not done yet?" ask Yanto

"yet" replied Gary.

"didn't Sofia give you the key to the answer yesterday?" ask Yanto again.

Gary did not answer the question, he just put up an upset face.

Gary didn't answer him anymore, he went outside the classroom and went out of nowhere for a few minutes.

"Gary, please work on number 6" Der's mother ordered.

Gary kept going even though he didn't know the answer. He wrote the original answer after thinking a few minutes in front of the blackboard.

"what's this?" asked Ms. Deri in her usual tone of conscience. "where did you get this answer? you've done your job Gary?" ask mom Deri consecutively.

Gary looked down and he gave no answer.

"can you talk, son?" mother Deri asked gently in horror.

"mom" replied Gary, keeping his head down

"have you done your job?"

"yet mom"

"why?"

"not knowing ma'am"

"what have you done?"

Gary was silent

"weren't you in a group with Sofia? Sofia, why don't you help her?" the question arrived to Sofia.

Sofia was confused as to how to answer. He also fell silent. The class became quiet.

"You can't be a science stingy, son. If you are smart, also help your friends who still can not. It's free for you to get number one if you have absolutely no heart to help a friend. Listen Sofia?" obviously, Ms. Deri.

"heard ma'am" Sofia replied while looking down.

This was the first time he was scolded by a teacher in class, in front of his friend. Sofia felt that her face was already very red and hot. She cried. Fortunately, her tears were dripping when the study hours were over. He lowered his head on the table and began to cry in silence.

"Sof, are you okay?" dani asked him.

Sofia shook her head and still lowered her head.

"You don't have any plans to apologize to Gary?" ask Yanto.

"hem? why?"

"yes, whatever you do, man, that's your choice. I just wanted to remind you that Sofia has helped you, but you don't appreciate it" Yanto then left after saying that.

"your eyes are why, ha ha ha" asked Yanto while jokingly trying to comfort Sofia.

Sofia smiled.
