Moon & Stars (Revised)
Part 2. New Students
And it's true.
When the Star arrived right at the gate, the school already looked deserted. There was no more noise of students heard here and there that usually filled the entire area of the large building. The fence was also sealed. From this, there is one thing we can conclude that the Star is really too late. Mucus!
“Tuh, kannn!!! I said also whataa?!!” The stars said. A small hiss came out from his mouth along with his hands that were raised upwards scratching the non-itchy nape of the back. His eyes running here and there making sure once again that he did not see wrong. And true, the atmosphere of the school area was already completely deserted.
“Duh, how donggg!!!” decak Bintang worries plus frustrations. The scratch on his back nape turned into a rough swipe. Then his hands were raised upwards, ruffling his thick black hair that began to lengthen.
“ARGGHHH... !!!”
The star stepped closer towards the closed school gate. The guy leaned his body against a closed fence. He saw both of his hands ruffling his hair.
Silent moment. Star muses. Think about what he can do to be free from this problem. Up, Star interrupts “Ahha!” a sign of an idea came to his mind.
“How about I climb the fence?!” ask the stars for themselves.
Instantly his eyes sparkled. Smile on the lips. Hm, come to think of it as no harm either!
“After, I climbed,” broke up Star finally. Without further ado, the Star immediately climbed the fence high enough.
Hap!
He landed safely in the school environment. His head looked up and looked here and there to ascertain the situation. Once considered safe, his legs were slowly rolled into the school corridor. So the position now, settles like a thief who is carrying out the action.
Unfortunately, when the distance to the classroom door stayed a few inches, the sound of someone from behind along with a hand perched on his shoulder managed to make him sculpt and silence.
“Bin-tang.. ?!” The person called out in a tone like someone asked. The name of the star seems to be intentionally interpreted.
That voice ...a familiar voice in his ears. Trouble, the Star swallowed his saliva. With his mouth muttering a prayer in his heart that after this he would still be fine, the Star turned its body back. Cut me off!
And ...
Allegedly right.
He, Mr. Andre. Mathematics teacher at Mahardika High School, as well as Omnya Bintang. Yes, Andre is the younger brother of his mother Star.
The grimacing star that ended up being a wide grin. His white teeth just looked like that.
“Eh, Om Andre! Kirain who, hehe...,” chirps Original star.
Mr. Andre glared at him sharply which again made the Star gulp. “Slow again right, you!” guess Mr. Andre is pointing the finger.
On target.
Star jerks. It looked like a surprised look on his face. But with his cleverness, the guy instantly changed his expression back to a rancid face.
“Ng-no dong, Om!” exciting Stars. Then, a crisp laugh. “My time is late again, anyway! Hahaha.”.
Mr. Andre raised one of his eyebrows upwards. I can't believe the answer that the stars gave me. Until when his eyes caught a glimpse of an object that could have made the Star, the other naughty student was silent, the teacher raised one corner of his lips to form a small grin. Hm, it looks like it can be used as a mainstay weapon.
“Keep, why is it still here?” andre asked intimidatedly.
At first, the stars looked ordinary. In fact, the guy was still laughing indistinctly. Apparently not affected at all by the question from his teacher. However, when Mr. Andre continued his words, the man immediately silenced with sour face water.
“Bas also ... why is it still being made?” ask Andre again.
The star's mouth briefly opened briefly shut. He wanted to say something, but didn't know what to say.
“A-anu, Um. I-it loh ... emm.. emm The stars say. Feeling himself nervous, the guy scratched his back nape that did not itch at all.
It was Mr. Andre who was holding back a laugh. A smile full of ledges etched beautifully on her lips. “Anu? Anu why, hm?!” asked Mr. Andre in a row, interrupting the speech of the Star.
“Times with a fierce nephew, Om!!!” Sulking star. Her lips were a few inches forward. His face turned sour.
“Nephew, nephew .... Here there is no such thing as a nephew, there is only my student's son!” Mr. Andre said sewot. Then, the middle-aged man raised one of his hands up telling the Star to enter the classroom.
“Ya already, speed in!” his word is uncontested.
The stars chuckled slowly. Then, the man took Mr. Andre's hands and kissed him like a late student to his parents. In the original, he was looking for attention.
“Thank you, om kyuuu!!” exciting Stars.
“Intake speed!” snapped Mr. Andre.
“Eh, i-iya Om!”
In that instant, the Star immediately entered the classroom.
***
On that cold sunny morning, class 11 IPA 2 was the arrival of new students.
“Good morning, kids!” greet Mr. Andre who just entered the classroom. The class that had been noisy, became silent in the blink of an eye. You hypocritical students!
“GOOD MORNING, SIR!!!” call the students in unison.
The elegance shown by the students made Mr. Andre smile. The teacher was standing in front of the class with a view toward the entire room.
“Before we start teaching and learning activities, you want to convey an information to all of you ..” said Mr. Andre at length. He deliberately hung his words.
“Make Sure Mr. Andre wants to talk about yesterday.”
“Which one? Oh, about the Dina who hit the actor?”
“Wah, we must be lectured again!”
“Worse anyway!”
Classes are back. The students began to whisper, asking each other about what information Mr. Andre would give. Listen, yesterday there were some girls in their school who crashed into another school and ended up fighting. The motive, the student boy wanted to hit the girl who had taken her boyfriend.
They are sure, Mr. Andre will definitely discuss the matter yesterday and end up lecturing.
“Today, our class has arrived a new student,” said Mr. Andre continued his speech. The smile that had been on her lips grew even more. The teacher turned towards the classroom door as if he was staring at someone there.
“Month, please log in!” he told the new student who was still loyal to stand in the doorway.
The transfer student named Moon immediately entered the classroom. He hesitated with his head still. Embarrassed? Sure was! Moreover, he had now become the center of attention.
At first, Bintang was careless and uncaring. But when he saw the girl's face, he was shocked not to play.
“I-it ..” chirps Stars staggered while pointing at the girl standing in front of the class. “... That's right, the girl I almost hit earlier!” continued muttering.
“Hah, what?! You hit people?!” Surya who was sitting on the bench behind him was shocked to hear the Star just now.
The stars widen their eyes. So the dajjal boy heard?
Goddamnit!
Directly the guy turned around and smothered Surya's mouth. “Sttt, silent njirrr!” he growled while staring around hoping that no one would hear Surya's call just now.
Breathing in relief as it seemed that the other disciples were still focused on the new disciple who was being introduced to it.
“Eh, i-yes! Hehe... sorry!” the Sinless Grin of Surya. He raised both of his fingers up to make peace. “But, how can you?!” ask again with both eyebrows bending each other.
“Yes can, sat!” the Bintang sewot. “Udah, ah! Later on her story. Length!” the stars ended the conversation.
The man turned his body back to its original position. Thankfully, Surya did not ask any more questions.
Apparently, the girl was jerking. He looked at Mr. Andre and smiled awkwardly. “E-eh, i-yes Sir!” kikuk.
Then, the girl lifted her eyes forward. He gave a thin smile. “Hai, introduce my name Moon Purnamasari. You can call me the Moon. Thank you!” he said introduce himself again.
“Hai, Month!”
“Halo, beautiful!”
The students of the 11th grade IPA 2 responded well, making Moon's smile stumble upon a timid smile.
“Good! Moon, you sit on an empty bench next to her Star, yes!” mr. Andre's decree on the Moon with his arms outstretched pointed at an empty bench.
The moon follows the teacher's direction. His eyes were round looking at an object there. Sipping his saliva was hard. Despite the hesitation, the girl nodded her head obediently. “I-iya, Sir!”
Then doubtfully, the Moon stepped there. He sat his ass on the bench next to the guy.
The stars silently smiled. Wouldn't he be more familiar with the girl?
“Hai Month! I know, I'm Bintang Prawijaya. Call a Star only.” The star smiled as she stuck her hand out towards the girl intending to ask her to get acquainted.
However, the Moon only showed a sweet smile without replying to her hand.
Star grimaces shame. Then as quickly as lightning pulled his hand back. Ends scratching the nape behind him feeling salting. Without Bintang realizing it, the girl sitting next to him quietly watched his movements and laughed softly.
“Oke, kids! It's time to learn..” Mr. Andre's words interrupted both of them. Teaching and learning activities began. Mr. Andre began to explain one by one the numbers on the board. Yes, today grade 11 IPA 2 there is a math lesson. Lessons that some students hate.
“So, those are the steps in working on such a matter. Up here, anyone want to ask about matrix?” mr. Andre said ending the lesson.
There is no reason, making Mr. Andre nodded his head. “Oke, because no one said, it means you assume everything has understood. All right, then you'll ask!”
The teacher smiled meaningfully making the students simultaneously gulp their hard-earned salivations. Mucus!
Mr. Andre's hand was dancing on the board. Apparently, he was writing about what he would propose later.
“Kids, who can answer this question you wrote?” ask Mr. Andre after writing a question on the board. His view leads to the students.
On the board, it was written as follows.
Determine the values a and b of the following matrix similarity.
[ a + b ] \= [ 4a - 5 ]
[ 2a - 15 ] [ 6a + 7b ]
Again, no one said. The disciples simultaneously became impromptu statues.
“No one can?” guess Mr. Andre sounds upset.
“I, sir!” chirp a disciple on the second bench from the front of the left-most row. His hand was raised into the air.
All eyes turned towards him. Some looked at him cynically, sparkly, and also hesitated.
“Month..?” Mr. Andre called in doubt. Both of his eyebrows bend at each other. “You want to answer?” his tanyanya made sure and immediately got a steady head nod from the disciple.
“Ya already, ahead!” tell Mr. Andre.
The moon rose from its seat and advanced forward. Arriving at the front, Mr. Andre immediately gave him a black marker. The moon picked it up and began working on the array of numbers on the board.
Answer :
a + b \= 4a - 5
-3 + b \= -5
2a - 15 \= 6a + 7b
-4a - 7b \= 15
\=>Elementation Method :
-3a + b \= -5 | x (-7) | 21a + (-7)b \= 35
-4a - 7b \= 15 | x 1 | -4a - 7b \= 15
————————— -
25a \= 20
a \= 20/25
a \= 4/5
a \= 0.8
\=>Substitution Method :
-3a + b \= -5
-3(0.8) + b \= -5
-2,4 + b \= -5
b \= -5 + 2,4
b \= -2,6
So, the value of a \= 0.8 and b \= -2.6
“Already, Sir!” said the Moon while closing the marker he just finished using it and thrust it back to Mr. Andre.
Mr. Andre seemed to observe well the answer the Moon had written on the board. Then before long, the man was bearded along with a wide smile imprinted on his lips.
“Good.” chirped Mr. Andre. Then his gaze turned to the girl standing next to him. “Your answer is right!” he said again with a tone of praise.
The sound of applause from the students instantly echoed in the room.
“Still, Sir!”
The moon turned around and stepped back into her seat. She bit her lips in shame because she was now the center of attention. Many adoring gazes were fixed on him.
The moon glanced sideways when it felt that the person sitting there was staring at it. And right, the guy was smiling towards him complete with his amazed look that could not be satisfied in both his eyeballs.
Moon jerks. His hand immediately grabbed his left chest as he felt a quick thump there.
What's the matter?
What is this feeling?
Honestly, the Moon doesn't know. Because this is the first time the Moon has felt this strange, unnatural thing.
Slowly but surely, the corners of the Moon's lips curved upwards to form a smile.
