Next morning..
"Hi hotshot. Are you ready for your first day of school?"
The handsome boy responded to the voice of the grandmother who woke him up, then opened his eyes and blinked with a blank look.
"El, you'll be late for class selection today, if you don't get ready soon" said the grandmother softly.
This time El's consciousness was already better.His grandmother's voice this time, sounded more comprehensible to him. He smiled and sat down and removed the blanket.
"Of course I don't like being late. I'll prepare. "he replied in a hoarse voice waking up. Then he got out of his bed.
45 Minutes later..
El was very neat with his white coat and short gray cloth pants, complete with long socks and boots given by his grandmother. The air this season is quite cold, so his grandmother chose a warm enough clothes for her beloved granddaughter. He sat down on the dining chair and looked at the grandmother who looked so serious reading something.
"Alright El, listen to it." her grandmother said, turning her eyes from the paper she was holding onto El.
"All right."
Answer el eager and enthusiastic.
"Bag clothes? "
The grandmother asked to make sure. El scrunched his forehead, a little confused by his grandmother's intentions. But he understood immediately afterwards. And then answer,
"It."
"Wheel?"
"It."
"Plant extract powder? "
" It's. "
" Scented candy? "
" It's. "
" Personal cube?"
" It's. "
" Dry food? "
" It's. "
" Inventory cube's? "
" Already granny, everything that grandma mentioned earlier besides the personal cube is stored there. But I still seem confused using it Grandma. "
Replied El while scratching his non-itchy head.
"Find your IC!" grandmother's orders.
El reached into his wheat bag and handed over his IC to grandma.
"Look, here is a gap to activate the storage, you just put your index finger and look straight at your IC. He will scan whether you are the original owner or not"
"Yes Grandma, El still remembers how to store the things that grandma taught. Then how do I get the stuff that El keeps here Grandma?"
"Do the same thing, but this time use your thumb and both eyes. This is to increase security when someone steals your IC El."
"Do all ICs work the same way Grandma?" El asked back.
"Of course not. Besides the cuber nation, very rarely anyone uses IC like us El. Only those who can afford it have it. Then the bonus, grandma guarantees your IC has the highest security system among all ICs scattered in Crystaland this El."
"Really?"
El asked with round eyes amazed.
"Of course, your grandmother is great."
Grandma answered with a big smile.
"Alright El will try it grandma."
el said while tinkering with his IC. practicing what his grandmother taught.
"What a cool thing, Grandma" said El, smiling with excitement.
"How can you make something like this?"
"..."
Grandma speechless.
"When it's about time Grandma will teach you El, now you focus on your barrier cube technique."
"We don't have much El." He murmured in his heart.
Then El's grandmother recalled El's list of preparations before leaving for school.
" Breakfast? "
"..."
El did not answer. But her grandmother understood when El proudly lifted the bowl and showed her the empty bowl. He really likes grandma's cooking because it is made with all his heart, it feels even more delicious.
"Good, you're ready. " His grandmother smiled as she gently patted El on the head.
" Let's go. " El smiled back.

The tail of the white horse travels at high speed through the cold end of winter in Crystaland. They reached their destination. El's grandmother got off the horse to drive El to school, then helped El down. Tied horse rope on a tree trunk that is quite large. Then he looked at El and said :
" Watch your step, always be alert and concentrated, that's the key." He lowered his head, looking at El gently.
El just nodded back.
"If something's wrong, call grandma with your personal Cube El."
order her grandmother again.
"Alright grandma, El remember. Calm down, there will be nothing wrong. El's body was weak from that of the other friend, but not with El's strength. El will also make many friends. Good friend."
Said El steady with a smile.
"Who is talking about this?" Tempting his grandmother at El. El doesn't usually speak by saying his name repeatedly.
"..."
El was silent for a moment and asked,
"Will grandma be okay if she's home alone?"
Grandma is smiling.
"You're the one Grandma was worried about El."
he answered gently while rubbing El's shoulders.
"I'm just worried. Grandma misses, on the spoiled El. Because when you go to school El will quickly grow up". El answered cutely. Hugged his grandmother.
A grandmother's heart has been touched, with the plain words of a granddaughter. He then rubbed his grandson's hair gently.
"Grandma will miss you so much El." His grandmother's embrace was getting tighter
"El is just like grandma" replied El.
Grandma El held back haru, her tears were about to drip. But he tried hard to keep it from flowing. He didn't want to look sad in his granddaughter's eyes. He then took off his wound to El.
"Go away.. Grandma can only take you here, "her grandmother looked at El affectionately.
El took one small step back and kissed his grandmother's hand. Then say:
"Grandmother can visit me if the bad time has come. We can even go home together if El's off."
"Oh yeah don't forget to bring me peanut butter bread when visiting ya grandma. I really like peanut bread made by grandma."
Pinta El by showing off her cute teeth.
"Alright", his grandmother replied with a smile. As if she didn't want to hold her granddaughter any longer.
El ran towards the queue at the entrance gate. Sometimes looking back at her grandmother. His focus was divided as some students did not line up properly and he had to keep his position with that small body.
"I have to rely on myself.."
el in the heart. He felt his grandmother back there was still watching him. He was embarrassed that the queue problem alone could not be overcome.
"Sister, please line up from behind or the guards there will scold you."
El tried to reprimand the person next to him who was trying to grab the queue.
The woman he was talking to seemed somewhat offended, but since he had been reminded by the younger students, he seemed to be embarrassed and immediately walked towards the very back of the queue.
