Happy reading 🍂
After an agreement between Rendra and Okky is established, now every day the male student diligently gives information about Aluna, the female student who has pierced the arrow of romance into the heart of the "school idol" named Rendra Saputra as a hobby, favorite food, favorite color anyway all the general information about Aluna. Rendra summarizes all the information into a special agenda book that he always carries everywhere. The book was never far from his reach, even sleeping even though the book he always put beside the mattress. He looked after it carefully like he was guarding a very expensive diamond.
The first day with the status of Harapan Pelita High School students, Aluna and other students were so excited to undergo new roles and new school environments.
"Good morning." Sapa Rendra when he saw Aluna get off the motor delivered by his papa, Alexander.
"Oh, good morning, brother." Aluna replied to the man.
Alexander just looked at their movements from a distance.
"Genesis the other day, I'm sorry for reprimanding you so hard." Rendra apologized for feeling bad for reprimanding Aluna and Rossa while she was giving directions to other new students.
"It's okay that I was the guilty one so it's natural that you reprimand." Aluna rubbed her nape in awkwardness.
"Oh yes, my name is Rendra Saputra." Rendra thrust out a hand to shake Aluna's hand.
The girl in front was silent, to him like a dream to chat and shake hands with the most popular student in SMA.
Rendra is still in position.
"I, Aluna Alexander. Call me Aluna or Luna." The girl shook Rendra's hand.
Instantly there is a strange feeling in Aluna when she shakes Rendra's hand but immediately repelled the feeling.
"Let's go in, the ceremony's about to start."
At exactly seven in the morning, the school bell rang and all Harapan Pelita High School students gathered in the school yard to carry out the flag raising ceremony that is usually done on Monday.
Monday flag ceremony has become a mandatory routine for educational institutions, especially schools both public and private schools.
The flag ceremony has excellent benefits for the efforts of ethical growth and the character of the nation, especially national values and diversity. These values include discipline, leadership, cooperation and cohesiveness, physical and mental strength, pathroitism (heroism) and many more.
All officers, leaders and ceremonial troops were lined up neatly in upright positions and ready to start the ceremony.

For about an hour, the flag ceremony was finally over. Each student has returned to the classroom and all teachers have started teaching.
A female teacher of about thirty-five entered the 1B classroom.
"Hello, good morning everyone. Introduce my name, Ms. Fatimah English teacher and your homeroom teacher for the next year." Ms. Fatimah introduced herself in front of the class before starting teaching and learning activities.
"Before starting this morning's study, I'll let you know one-on-one."
Ms. Fatimah served one by one of the 1B students including Aluna and Rossa.

The sound of a break bell rang, indicating that teaching and learning activities should be temporarily stopped.
"Aluna, let's go to the cafeteria." Rossa took her best friend to eat in the school cafeteria.
"Wait a minute, I'll take care of this first."
Aluna stuffed a notebook and a pencil case into the backpack and then tightly closed it.
They walk to the cafeteria, where they meet Rendra and her gangmates.
"I'll go there first." Rendra left his friends.
Rendra approached Aluna who was sitting in the chair under the banyan tree.
"Aluna, may I sit here."
"Oh brother Rendra, of course you can. Please."
"I'm bothering you?"
"Not really."
Rossa brought a bowl of instant boiled noodles complete with eggs and sausages and put them on the table.
"Your hand is still being made, soon to be ripe." Rossa to Aluna.
"What did you order?"
"I ordered chicken noodles. Brother didn't order food?"
"I've ordered chicken noodles too but I'm still waiting."
"Oh."
Aluna ber "oh" ria.
"Oh yes, next week our school will hold a makrab. Are you guys coming?"
"Sure!" Aluna and Rossa answered.
Soon enough, the chicken noodles ordered by Aluna and Rendra were ripe. Rendra volunteered to bring Aluna's bowl of chicken noodles.
"Good meal." Aluna.
Aluna, Rossa and Rendra enjoyed the meal with interspersed chats about the experience during the MOS activities.
One week later
The day awaited by all 1st grade students arrives, they will hold Makrab (Night of Familiarity) activities organized by the board of OSIS. During the day they had gathered in order of classes and lined up in the field listening to the remarks of the school and the committee chairman.
Makrab or night of familiarity is a series of events from the introduction of schools for new students with the aim to familiarize fellow new students and also seniors or upperclassmen.
"Later in the evening there will be a bonfire and friendly events so you prepare one or two people as class representatives to perform." Nurma said as the 1B class in charge.
"I don't want to go forward." Speak to student A.
"I don't want to either." Speak to student B.
There was a commotion in the classroom because of the forty students of class 1B no one wanted to become a representative of the class.
"What if Aluna goes ahead."
"I've heard him sing and his voice is quite melodious." Rossa gave me advice.
"You go ahead also Rossa, accompany Aluna." Speak to student C.
"true."
"Ngaco you, I have stage fright. If I go forward it will ruin the show."
"Oh yeah, you don't remember when he introduced himself in front of the class. His whole body was shaking from nervousness." Speak to student A.
"Ha-ha-ha." All the students laughed in light of the events during the MOS activity.
"Well, why are you laughing at me?" Rossa was upset that all of her classmates were mocking her.
"Have it, you don't have to fuss anymore." Said Nurma who had heard the discussion that took place in class 1B.
"We ask first, if Aluna is willing to be the representative of the class to perform later tonight."
"How's Aluna, are you ready?"
All the students stared at Aluna full of pleas, hoping that she would be willing to perform at the event later that night.
"Okay, I'm ready. If I make a mistake performing later please forgive me for this is the first time I've ever sung in public."
"You take it easy, we won't punish you."
Finally, all 1B students can breathe a sigh of relief because Aluna is willing to appear at the bonfire later tonight.
