Hana Jasmine's. 24-year-old girl who has long straight hair up to waist.
Many people call her Hana.
Hana is a teacher at a kindergarten school in Jakarta, who used to study at a special school Early Childhood Education program, Seitoku Academy in the city of Chiba on the outskirts of the capital Tokyo, Japan. Hana is an accomplished graduate, she also got a scholarship and has internship experience teaching at kindergarten school in Japan.
Raised by a family with an educational background, flowing teaching talent seems to have been destined for Hana. His father was a lecturer at one of the public universities in Jakarta, his mother was a primary school teacher near his home in Rawamangun, Jakarta.
After returning to her homeland, Hana becomes a very smart and easy young teacher close to children.
The ability to teach Hana with a student center approach, able to make everyone who interacts with her feel comfortable and not difficult to adapt. His carefree attitude, always can make learning in the classroom fun for his students.
Another attraction of Hana is her long hair. For female students, Hana's hair also becomes a magnet. Many students like and say they want to have long hair like Miss Hana.
That's what makes Hana rarely cut her hair.
Not infrequently, the style of Hana's pigtails when teaching is followed by female students.
In fact, being a child garden teacher or kindergarten is not the initial dream of Hana. This dream belongs to the deaf older sister Hana who is dead. Based on her love for her sister, Hana decided to change her dreams and realize her sister's dream of becoming a kindergarten teacher
Even so Hana does not feel sorry, she can still channel her hobby of painting and coloring along with her profession now.
It is precisely this that makes Hana increasingly liked by the children of his students.
Yes, Hana used to aspire to become a painter before deciding to become a kindergarten teacher like now.
In addition, not infrequently he gives the results of his picture as a gift to the people closest to him.
Apart from the outward appearance of Hana who had always been a carefree teacher and everyone's favorite, Hana kept her own predicament.
Hana tries hard to rise from the grief after she feels the turning point of her life losing the closest person in her family. Which until now still leaves a sense of tightness and trauma of loss.
Fate forces Hana to see with her own eyes the incident of her older sister dying in a traffic accident 6 years ago.
The gray day in his memory was still a nightmare that continued to approach several nights in his life.
For that reason too. Hana tries hard to realize her brother's dream in place of his initial dream so that he succeeds in becoming a kindergarten teacher. Hana hoped that she could release a bit of tightness in the heart. Although it is clear that this is beyond his power or responsibility.
After the accident, mentioning her brother's name or hearing the news of a traffic accident will make a lighter for Hana and her family to remember this painful loss. Sometimes they still could not hold back the crying.
Although it feels heavy Hana, her father, mother, and younger brother are finally able to continue life with hope even with the severe trauma of loss that they were never able to bury in.

School graduation day at kindergarten Summer Breeze.
^^^“Last, thanks to the kindergarten teachers Summer Breeze who have taught us with pleasure.^^^
^^^Ah! Special thanks from me, Miss Hana is the best!”^^^
^^^-Shane, student representative
Claps and lots of laughter and happy cries were heard. A closing speech earlier from the representative of one of the students on graduation day, makes the atmosphere for those who hear it especially for the teacher who is called by name.
The school graduation ceremony ended, the student guardians were very farewell and gave an expression of gratitude, there is also a gift as a manifestation of their gratitude for the services of teachers who have patiently taught their children.
After all the procession ends and people go home, stay some teachers who are still in school to tidy up the rest of the decoration of this graduation event.
Not so long, one by one the teachers came home to the principal, David Sasaki. The headmaster is Indonesian with half Japanese blood, so people usually call David Sensei. Sensei in Indonesian means teacher.
When it was Hana's turn to say goodbye, the headmaster asked Hana to stay for a while longer.
^^^"There is something I want to discuss with you" - principal David.^^^
Hana and the headmaster enter the principal's room, there is also the vice principal Riga Sasaki who is also the son of David Sasaki. Riga is a friend of Hana's academy in Japan. They were both similarly graduates from Seitoku academy.
^^^“Sit, Miss Hana.” - Head of school David.^^^
After that, Hana sat down and waited thinking what the principal would talk about.
Is this because of Shane's speech just saying my name? But I don't know about it either. Because until the time of the dress rehearsal, the child did not mention this at all, muttered from Hana.
^^^“Miss Hana, what I would like to discuss with you is about the big news and preparations in this year's new teachings”^^^
The headmaster let out a rather heavy breath.
^^^“Before that, I heard that when teaching interns in Japan you were directly involved in teaching special needs children with the help of sign language, right?”^^^
Deg. Hana's heart stopped for a moment
hearing sign language.
Hana recalled the teaching experience that the principal meant. When he inevitably had to reuse sign language after the departure of his older sister.
Actually there is still discomfort in Hana's heart every remember let alone connect with something that will remind her of her late brother.
^^^“Iya is correct David Sensei.”-Hana^^^
Hana glanced at Riga at a glance trying to find a clue from her friend. Riga simply shrugged her shoulders a sign that she was not aware of this conversation either.
^^^“So what do you think if this year's new teachings we accept students with special conditions and similar to children of special needs?"^^^
The headmaster paused for a moment seeing Hana's reaction. But since Hana was just silent, the headmaster resumed his words.
^^^"The child has speech delay and is also in therapy with a child psychology doctor. However, because of his age entered school age, doctors recommend as a counterweight to this child therapy a lot of interaction with other people besides his family.”^^^
Shouldn't we go to a special school? Aaa, I'm scared when I haven't heard it all.
Hana was still silently slightly bowing her head. Don't know what to answer. He wanted to refuse. But confused and distressed to the principal.
Like knowing what was inside Hana's head, the principal finished the word.
^^^“Maybe the decision to enter a general kindergarten school is a tough decision to see the condition of this child, but after hearing the explanation of the doctor and guardian of the student, I want to accept it at this school.”^^^
^^^-head of school David^^^
^^^“But sensei, I don't feel confident. Moreover, my experience is very little for this field.” -Hana^^^
After a long silence, Hana began to try to answer with the best reason she had.
^^^“Ya, I understand. I also suspect this will be a tough thing for our school because we have never had any experience in the previous school year.^^^
^^^But, Hana-san.”^^^
^^^-head of school^^^
What is this, if sensei has called me with a personal call that means he asked me to consider and it is difficult for me to refuse, right?
^^^“Can I ask you for help? This application is directly from my close relatives, it is very difficult to refuse.”^^^
After that the headmaster explained that his close relatives were not ordinary people, he was a famous enough artist so very carefully choose his son's school especially with the conditions presented earlier.
This relative of his can only trust our school, added the headmaster.
As a school employee, Hana resigned finally could not refuse and promised to help become a shadow teacher for this student.
I have no other choice right, sensei until pleading like this, a complaint that can only be said in Hana's heart.
Hana's job is more or less the same as the previous school year. It's just growing into a special shadow teacher for a new student named Cherry.
Shadow teacher has a role in the learning process of teaching children with special needs in the classroom, especially his role is to help and teach children with special needs during the learning process in the classroom and help communication of children with special needs with friends.
According to David's principal, Cherry was not a child born with special needs. Due to a condition she has a speech disorder and speech delay.
The last few years are still aided by doctors, and there is progress but still far to be said to be cured.
In addition to speech disorders, Cherry is no different from children of the same age in general. If people do not know the condition, Cherry just looks like a quiet child and rarely talk.
He can respond, listen and act as usual.
Due to the difficulty of interacting with others. Initially Cherry was taught sign language to support therapy while continuing speech training. For now, Cherry can already say one or two simple words.
For long sentences, Cherry can't yet. Cherry will use sign language to say it.
With his inclusion in general kindergarten, doctors hope this can stimulate Cherry's speech ability to open the path of his initiative to start interactions with his friends.
That's how this story begins. Hana felt she had to prepare a somewhat different teaching material. Of course also preparing his heart, reusing sign language means he will often remind memories with his brother.
At first, Hana did not expect what great things would come to her after this. For sure this big decision will change his life, mostly making his days become far from the word calm.
