Karina, The Ex - Humble Beauty
Chapter 2 - Millan Intercultural School [revised]
In the morning, around six, Karina arrived at her class. Karina approached her chair and sat there. Karina watched her entire class end-goals.
"Ehm, Salsa ...." Karina called out to the girl sitting on the next table chair.
"Uh? what's wrong?" salsa asked with a slightly surprised look. Salsa was shocked because Karina suddenly invited him to speak first. Karina had never taken the initiative.
[Translation: "Eh? Why?"]
"Salsa, do you know someone named Bella Safira?" asked Karina with a little fear.
[Translation: "Salsa, do you know anyone whose name is Bella Safira?"]
Bella Safira is a friend's name on her sister's social media. Karina did not know it. In addition, he said, Bella Safira was also in the same school as Karina.
Karina guessed that Salsa would find out. Salsa is an OSIS child, a journalist, and is also in charge of the school forum. So, there's too much news Salsa knows. Salsa is arguably the most up-to-date student.
"Bella Sapphira? Are you talking about Bella Safira, the girl who likes Kenzo?" ask Salsa.
[Translation: "Bella Safira? You mean Bella Safira, the girl who likes Kenzo?"]
Kenzo was one of the handsome and popular disciples. Kenzo is also the head of the eskul basketball core team. So, arguably, Kenzo has too many fans to count.
"Um, I don't know, Sa. I just want to know, I heard Bella is pretty. What class is he?" karina asked while feeling relieved because Salsa did not look upset when Karina asked her.
[Translation: "Em, I don't know, Sa. I just want to know, Bella's horrors are beautiful. What class is he?"]
"Beauty from where, Kar? I just found out that you can be sarcastic too," Salsa said with a chuckle.
[Translation: "Beautiful from where, Kar? I just found out you can be sarcastic too."]
"meaning?" ask Karina.
"Bella Safira who likes Kenzo is really geeky, Kar! Bella is teased, she likes Kenzo, who is one of the most handsome boys in this school. If the Bella Safira you're looking for is beautiful, it's not like that, Kar" Salsa replied.
[Translation: "Bella Safira who likes Kenzo is really geeky, Kar! So Bella kept teasing, because she likes Kenzo who incidentally one of the handsome guys at this school. If the Bella Safira you're looking for is beautiful, it's not like that, Kar."]
"Oh, yeah, I don't think so. Thank you, Sa" replied Karina.
"I've never heard you being curious about things like this, Kar. All this time, I thought you only cared about academics, academic competitions here and there, the same eskul dance lo."
[Translation: "Gue or if you are curious about ginian as well, Kar. All this time, I thought you only cared about academics, academic competitions here and there, the same eskul dance lo."]
"Hehehe, yes. But, I realized too, I've been too ignorant of other things. So, I just want to try to be more socialized just as much as the news around me," replied Karina with a small chuckle.
[Translation: "Hehehe, yes. But, I realized as well, I was too neglecting other things. So, I just want to try to socialize more and more about the news around."]
"Oh, I see .. that's good! Yeah, you're, you're gonna be the friend I want to be, right? Guaranteed you auto know all the hot news in this school. I also know my other friends. You want to, Kar?" salsa asked in a very excited tone.
[Translation: "Oh, it .. good dong! Yeah, you're, you're gonna be the friend I want to be, right? Guaranteed you automatically know all the news that is hot in this school. I also know my other friends. Would you like to, Kar?"]
"Now, Sa. Thank you, I want to be my friend" Karina said with a smile.
"No problem! I'm really happy to have a super smart and super beautiful friend like you! I'm sure my friends will be happy too!"
[Translation: "No problem! I even seneng can have super pinter and super beautiful tea like lo! I'm sure my other friends will be happy too!"
After a long time Karina had a conversation with Salsa, Karina and Salsa stopped talking because the bell had rung. Karina actually did not pay attention to her lesson. Karina was pondering over Salsa's earlier remark.
Tringgc ...
The bell rang, indicating that the break has arrived.
"Karina, to the cafe, yuk? It's my treat!" Salsa.
[Translation: "Karina, to the cafe, yuk? I'm the one who bought it!"]
"G-in"
"Don't say no! If not, I'm asking you, nih," Salsa said when she saw Karina wanted to reject her.
[Translation: "Don't say no! If not, I'll take it with you,."]
"OK," Karina replied resignedly.
The cafe in question by Salsa is actually like a canteen in another school. Only, this school has a cafeteria that is too luxurious. The price is also very unfriendly for the lower middle class. Such a canteen, more suitable to be called a cafe.
The school also provides free meals for students who want them. Of course, it would not be as luxurious as the one in the cafe. Karina usually takes these foods to save money.
Karina attended a very expensive private school, Millan Intercultural School. How not to be called expensive, for regular students with High School level, the cost of tuition per month is about three hundred million rupiah or maybe more. Yes, not misread, it is about three hundred million rupiah per month.
The interior of this school is very luxurious, even the hotel that Karina had visited was less luxurious. The school has excellent facilities. The school has many classrooms with AC, projector, WI-FI, private lockers, sports fields with a wide variety of adequate tools, swimming pools, beautiful gardens, spacious parking lots, etc, there are many other facilities that have not been mentioned.
The school is filled with children with extraordinary backgrounds. Starting from the son of officials, subsidiaries of well-known companies, children of artists, or even celebrities who are teenagers. The point is they're all amazing, and hard to reach.
Then, how did Karina get to school here? The answer, of course, is with Karina's brain who is very smart in academics. Karina attended Millan Intercultural School on a scholarship. This was also one of the things that made Jesica envious half to death.
"Karina knows, this is my friend" Salsa said.
"Hi, you're Karina Neltharina, Salsa's classmate, who everyone calls super smart and super pretty, right? You're really pretty, living up to your reputation. Well, I'm Tessalonica, I'm usually called Tessa," said Tessa with a very fast talking tempo, almost like no pause.
[Translation: "Hi, lo Karina Neltharina, Salsa's classmate, who says super-pinter and super-beautiful, right? Well, I'm Tessalonica, I'm usually called Tessa."]
Tessa looks like the kind of nerdy girl in the anime. Her hair was braided in two on the side and had bangs covering her entire forehead. Tessa also wears glasses. Tessa is a beautiful girl, so Tessa does not look cute with such an appearance.
"Yes, hello, Tessa. I'm Karina."
[Translation: "Yes, hello, Tessa. I'm Karina."]
"Hello, Karina! My name is Keysa, called Key. You see, if it's called Sa, who sees three people," Keysa said, chuckling.
[Translation: "Hello, Karina! My name is Keysa, usually called Key. You see, when it's called Sa, who sees three people."]
Unlike Tessa, Keysa looks like a very cheerful girl. Keysa looks cute with dimples on both cheeks. Her hair was just a little more under her shoulders. Keysa's hair is straight and also has bangs covering his forehead like Tessa's. It looks the friendliest and approachable compared to Salsa and Tessa.
Salsa is also friendly and has many friends. It's just that, in terms of aura, Salsa has an aura that is quite oppressive compared to Tessa or Keysa. Salsa has wavy and non-porous hair. At first glance, Salsa does not look like an approachable girl.
Karina gave a small chuckle when she heard Keysa's words. Salsa, Tessa, and Keysa. They all have names that end. That's a pretty weird coincidence. It just so happened that the three of them were friends.
"Yes, hi too, Keysa."
"Well, are you his acquaintance? It's time for us to order some food!" salsa.
[Translation: "Well, are you his acquaintance? It's time to pick up the food!"]
