Infinite happiness is, when we see a smile carved out of a person's face, over what we have given him. Aretha had suspected, if the children of Mahardika will feel very happy when invited to study tour around several museums. However, he did not expect that their happiness levels would be much greater than what Aretha had thought.


By using a bus rented by the Lion Gang children, all Mahardika children will be brought to 3 places. That is, the Sri Baduga Museum, the Asian African Museum and also Puspa Iptek.


The Sri Baduga Museum is the first museum they will visit. All the children were asked to line up neatly according to their respective classes. Aretha and Giandra immediately searched all her students and asked them to march immediately.


"Hello everyone, brother yah" cried Jovan using a mic. All the children who were initially excited talked and there were some who looked around. Instantly focusing their attention on the figure of Jovan who was right in front of them.


"okay, thanks for being calm. As you have seen and read, now we are in front of the Sri Baduga museum building.in a moment we will go inside, but I ask you to stay near your teachers. Understood?"


"understand" cried the happy Mahardika children.


"and for all the teachers who guide, don't forget to always pay attention to your students. And if anyone wants to go to the toilet, please allow your teacher. Understood?"


"understand!" the mahardika children.


After Jovan interrupts to get inside, one by one each class enters the building.


"waw, very good" said one of Aretha's students.


Not only Mahardika children who feel amazed by the contents of the museum they are currently visiting. But Aretha also felt very amazed by the relics that hold a lot of history. If you can be honest, this is also the first time for Aretha to visit a museum. All this time, he had never once set foot into such a historic place.


"Pyrite Pyrite is formed due to minerals composed by the iron-sulfur compound FeS2, yellow like gold. Pyrite is found in many igneous rocks or deposits. If dissolved, it can form sulfuric acid that interferes, both for agriculture and engineering buildings, including excavated rocks. The nature of these rocks if affected by pressure, temperature or chemical environment, can change properties to solid until the crystal or grains are lost their original form, aged : Pliocene (2-5 million years) location: Majalengka, the, West Java"


Giandra carefully read out the description of the stone before them at this time. The whole child nodded his head in understanding.


After that, they continued their exploration to surround the entire museum area. By alternating Aretha and Giandra read the description written, because some children there are not able or fluent reading. Some children also ask some questions, Aretha and Giandra answer their questions with the help of mbah g*og*e, because they do not understand too much either.


After finishing visiting the entire area of Sri Baduga, the journey is continued by visiting Asia Africa. As before, Giandra and Aretha read out what was written on the description. The visit ended with a guide explaining the history of the Asian-African conference. All the mahardika children with henchmen, listening to the guide's explanation.


"drink" said Jovan, handing over a bottle of mineral water to Aretha.


Currently, Jovan is sitting right beside Aretha, while on his left there is Giandra who is focused on listening to the explanation.


"thank you" said Aretha, receiving a bottle of mineral water, then drinking it.


After that, they both refocused on the explanation from the guide.

Their last destination is to visit Puspa Iptek, different from the previous 2 places. Today, all Mahardika children are free to go around anywhere, without the need to be with classmates or guidance teachers. As long as they are not far from their friends.


"it's a pity that Bella has to go home" said Sisil and was nodding his head by Aretha.


As the plan from the beginning, Bella will not visit all study tours. Bella returns home picked up by one of her older brothers. As a result, he could not visit the iptek puspa which is very famous for its giant sundial.


"well, the glasses are nice Sil. You try to enter" proposed Aretha after seeing one of the children of Mahardika who entered into the glass that is hollow at the top center. Where, the child came out of the hole and only visible upper body only.


"you're Tha, I'm taking pictures"


With happiness Aretha nodded her head, then she went in there with Sisil who was ready to photograph her.


"1..2.3" right after Sisil said the number three, a chekrek sound was heard.


"change Tha style" orders Sisil.


Aretha seraga changed his style, one of them like a person who was surprised because half of his body disappeared. Aretha went back to Sisil, having managed to take almost 10 photos with different styles.


"do you want to try Sil?" ask Aretha.


"no, I want to try something else"


After that, they went back around the puspa iptek area, but their steps stopped when they saw Jovan riding his bicycle on a rope.


"no danger at all?" ask Aretha worried.


Sisil immediately shook his head "like he didn't. There will be a safety rope, there are guards as well" he said, disagreeing with Aretha's opinion.


"but there's no guarantee that the rope won't break?"


"yes... Yes, but they can't be that stupid. Like anything, this is about human life. They may not be playing games"


Inevitably Aretha nodded her head in agreement, although her heart and mind were still worried.


A sigh of relief came out of Aretha's mouth, when she saw Jovan who had made it through the rope that was like a string of mustaqim sirotol.


"no, don't worry. Now we're gonna go around, or do you want to meet Jovan?" very kindly Sisil will go if Aretha will meet Jovan. He is not a mosquito that should be around the young couple.


"around again. Meet with Jovan later" Aretha said as he walked away.


In addition to first visiting the museum, today is also the first time Aretha came to visit puspa iptek. So he did not want to waste an opportunity that Aretha might not repeat again later on, ending in vain. When else, right, learning as well as playing around?
