This morning as usual, Audie was forced to take a bus because Irfan had to pick up Alea. As for Dimas, the middle-aged man had returned out of town to dabble in business matters.
The girl with the rope braid style braid did not intend to eat her breakfast today, only the chocolate milk that she drank until it finally ran out was not left in the slightest.
"Fried rice is also eaten dong, Dek. You here, how sick will you be?" Linda who had noticed her daughter was now raising her voice, she put the dishes she had washed back into place.
Linda's breath sounded heavy and she exhaled very long, the housewife took a seat next to Audie, she gently stroked the samurai girl. "Why? Audie got a problem?"
Audie regained consciousness from her world, her net staring fixedly at Linda's face. He wanted to tell the woman the truth that Alea was not a good woman for Irfan. But the doubts that lay within him managed to prevent him from doing so.
"Audie is full, Mah. If so Audie left school first well, afraid later miss the bus." He picked up the rancel bag on the table.
"But it-"
"Assalamu'alaikum!" Hurry Audie barks the hand of the woman who has not finished saying the sentence but has been cut by Audie.
The tiny body immediately darted away from the house, Linda who saw it was just a head bobble. He knew something must have happened to his daughter, but he prefers to stay quiet and approach Audie slowly until Audie wants to say whatever has stuck in his heart all this time.
Just now Audie wanted to step foot out of the doorway of the house, when she was shocked by the sound of a motorcycle horn. The driver took off the black helmet, a sumringai smile emanated on his lips, the rows of teeth were almost bloated in the wind.
"Why are you smiling that wide?" Audie gave a cynical look with her lips raised upwards, she turned her body back about two footsteps.
"Good..." Jack's orders patted the back seat of his matic motor. Audie knew that, that Jack was just someone who had mediocre income parents, he was simple yet quite mischievous.
Before riding Jack's motorcycle, Audie had to exhale. His steps were not excited, yet Jack did not care about it. He just wants to take the woman he likes to go to school without having to bother waiting for the bus.
"OKs... Lets go.." cried Jack who made Audie have to cover his ears with the palm of his hand.
At the beginning of the journey, everything was fine. All that is heard are the sounds of vehicle horns when the highway is hit by traffic jams. Until the middle of the journey Audie began to feel uncomfortable when Jack continued to babble unclear. Tells how he first developed a relationship, namely since sitting on the bench of Kanak-Kanak Park. Which should be at such a young age is still learning alphabets, but it turns out that the man has known what love is at an early age. A very unlikely thing indeed, but that is the fact.
Audie breathed rough, nethernya he was exposed to the plaques that were on the side of the road. Pretend to read each article to avoid the sentences Jack who is not weighty. Especially when the tattooed man told how he treated his 32 exes so fairly. A very irritating thing for Audie, not because of jealousy, but because Jack had five times more to tell him the same thing.
After Audie's ears were filled with Jack's ravings, they finally reached Dharvaro High School. The students passed by. Some go to the cafeteria before the entrance bell rings, some have the opportunity to visit their lover just to date.
Audie chose to immediately enter the class, free later he invited Indah or Arini to hang out first in the cafeteria before the lesson began, because the two girls were nerds. When they get to school, all they know is learning, learning and learning. There is no play in their dictionary unless it is in time.
"Eh, Audie. Have you studied mathematics yet?" jack asked suddenly while taking out the package book from his bag in the drawer.
"Yet, why?" audie asked back. It was just a wonder, why would a delinquent like Jack suddenly care about learning or not him, even though they were both the same. Equally lazy to learn.
"Les first teacher, Ms. Alea, do you want to be punished again?"
As Audie widened her eyes, Alea was the teacher she had to avoid right now. In addition to hate because the woman had managed to get Xavier's heart, she also hated that Alea was playing with her brother's heart but pretended to still love him.
"Kok can be Bu Alea anyway, instead of math teacher Bu Aminah huh?" audie's facial features could explain how worried she was at the moment. Worried if he gets punished again.
"Bu Aminah did not come, her son was sick." Clearly Jack was relaxed so as to make Audie's forehead wrinkle faintly.
Audie looked at Jack with an interrogating gaze, "gue wonder, why you know so much every teacher in or not. In fact, not infrequently you also know the information that will be delivered by the school which is certainly not announced in the wall magazine."
Instantly Jack turned his face everywhere to make Audie increasingly not understand the behavior of the man.
"My instinct is always right," an annoying answer, because Jack always gives the same reason as the day before.
Not long after the bell rang, the math teacher had entered the XII-3 classroom. It is true what Jack said, not Bu Aminah who came but Alea.
For a while Audie noticed the woman's appearance, her lipstick was flaming red with a blush-on adorning her tapered cheeks. All the students in the class answered the greetings as Alea said the greetings in the doorway.
"Because Bu Aminah is lost today, so I will take her place." Clearly Alea before any student asked why it wasn't Bu Aminah who entered their class.
Instantly heard complaints from the mouths of the students, did not accept if Bu Aminah who was good at being replaced by the cruel teacher Alea.
"Why? you guys don't like it?" aela said defiantly. Instantly all the students are bowed staring at the floor except Jack and Audie.
"Now open exercise 7, work on questions number 1 to number 5. There are no multiple options there, determine the answer using the formula."
It was very desirable for their mouths to complain again, but their adrenaline was not that strong when they saw how ferocious the woman had the cold aura and the murderous gaze.
"So there's something wrong with the five about, is there still a penalty, ma'am?" ask a student who ranked top in class XII-3.
"Sure," Alea replied casually, making the student who asked earlier develop her smile even more. That is, if he is an expert in mathematics, what he needs to fear. Instead, he was proud when friends in his class got punished while he did not.
"I'll give you an hour, if you're not ready, you'll know what the punishment is."
Some students quickly want to complete the task given by Alea so as not to get punishment There is also a surrender even though he has not struggled, he said, some even prefer to sleep rather than struggling with problems that cannot be digested by the brain.
Audie picked up a notebook and a ballpoint pen in her bag. While Jack was smiling secretly to see Audie so eager to work on problems. But suddenly Jack's smile faded when he found Audie leaning his body on the book he stacked on the table, while the ballpoint pen he toyed among his five fingers.
One story landed on the audie's forehead, he grimaced and then stared intently at the perpetrator. "That's what... What the hell Jack, sick to know." Whine the girl.
Jack breathed a rough breath, "told about why do you even sleep?"
"Lo why the hell? 'you know I don't like to learn."
"What do you want to be in the future? Want, every day is as low as a smart mulu?"
Audie rolled her eyes lazily, "not the same as me, even more stupid than me, Jack."
Jack, unconcerned by Audie's words, immediately snatches the girl's notebook, opens the blank sheet and forces Audie's hand to write on it.
"Now you work, stop being a wayward child. I'm fed up every day seeing you mulu low."
Audie who was already annoyed with Jack's attitude finally gave up. But now he did not know what to write on the paper.
"Why is it still quiet?" asked Jack who was trying to solve math problems when he found Audie only pressed the end of the ballpoint pen but did not write anything.
"Gue doesn't know Jack's answer, I don't know what to do."
Jack brought his chair closer to Audie, "here.." said Jack, then he explained what formula should be used and how to solve the problems.
Audie keeps paying attention to how Jack looks like a mathematician while teaching him. But he still remembered how they were both very stupid in terms of count-counting. All Audie had in mind right now was, was Jack creating a perfunctory formula? A formula created by itself.
"Do you know?" jack asked after much effort.
"Lo sure, what you're teaching is true? isn't that stupid in every subject?"
"Udah, you know what I said, Audie. Stop saying I'm a fool. Now I'm clear again and you should be fine. So, if you are later told to go forward again with Ms. Alea, you should be able to solve the problems."
Audie just resigned, he just according to what Jack said. The girl continued to try to understand every explanation from the man next to her. After struggling, Audie finally understood as well, although some of the problems he was still confused why there was such a complicated formula.
"Time's up, all the answers are gathered forward." Alea commands from the teacher's desk next to the blackboard.
Audie steps her legs in doubt, not knowing if she should trust Jack who is just as dumb as him.
"Udah, just take it." Said Jack casually.
Audie put her notebook on Alea's desk, the woman had no intention of looking at Audie, she was just indifferent. Audie is back on his bench.
Alea noticed Audie's answer, of course he was not surprised when the girl's answer was all right. Because he sure must have Audie cheating again like the day before.
"Audie.." call her later, make the girl the owner's name snort annoyed. How not, among 42 students why his name alone is always called. What a shitty thing.
"Yes, Mom!" Audie replied without excitement.
"Do the number one thing without looking at the book." Already Audie guessed, Alea always just toyed with him.
Audie stepped lethargic, he picked up the black marker, before working on the answer he needed to write the matter down first.
'If x and y are the solution of the system equation 4x + y \= 9 and x + 4y \= 6, then the value of 2x + 3y is?'
Audie then wrote the formula of the number one problem. Instantly, all the students in class XII-3 were stunned, not least the number one student and Alea. How can a girl as stupid as Audie suddenly solve a math problem? Very rare thing.
"Already, Mom." Say Audie after you finish answering questions on the board.
Alea noticed Audie's hard work, her pair of eyes looking at the girl suspiciously. The next second he said, "honor the flag after that clean all the toilets in this school." Alea leisurely walked towards the doorway after the bell for the second les had rung.
"What do you mean, ma'am?" who else would dare challenge a teacher if not Jack.
Alea rolled her eyes lazily as she found the person who spoke loudly was the student who yesterday, "why? you want to be in law too?"
Jack smiled wryly, as if he was underestimating the teacher before him. "Mom became a math teacher but couldn't solve math formulas, huh? How can I punish Audie when the answer is correct. I think I'm a fool, I know the answer Audie makes doesn't hurt a bit."
"Do you feel smarter than me? the formula he created was too complicated, he should have made the formula more concise and easy. How can he later do the National Exam problem with the formula along it, while the process of doing the National Exam has a time limit." A very unreasonable reason, even the student named Tika as the first rank in the XII-3 class also felt strange, as well, because all this time he had never found a teacher who punished his students just because the formula was too long.
"But-"
"Do I need to increase the sentence?" Alea smiled faintly after not getting an answer from Jack.
"For others who are not ready, do not forget to respect the flag and then clean the bathroom. While the answer I have not assessed I will check first. Since the time is up, I will return your duties tomorrow." After he finished saying it Alea soon passed, without caring there Audie was clenching her hands tightly to hold back her almost peaking emotions.
After Alea's departure, Jack grabbed her coarse hair. As for Audie, he was still staring at the woman's departure. The corner of his eyes had runny, eager to grab Alea's hair, eager for her to argue for her unmistakable self. I don't know why he didn't dare to do that. Until when else did Alea continue to punish him like that, and until when else did Alea continue to play tricks on him?
"Lo no need to respect the flag of all, let alone clean the toilet, if you are threatened by the teacher g*la, I will report to the principal."
Audie turned her face toward Jack who was standing next to her, "no papa, I've always respected the same flag cleaning the toilet really." Jack knew, the smile that Audie was putting on right now was just a forced smile.
"It's not about that Audie, right now you just need justice, until when you're low on mulu kayak gini?" Said Jack, but Audie just fell silent not want to chimed in.
