Scavenger Becomes New Director
Acquaintance
The few hours of lessons left in the day felt long and awkward to a Serly. He is not as active and as good as Cassandra. And it is true that Cassandra was chosen to be the class leader because in addition to the son of a regional leader, she is also known as a figure who is light, active and talkative. Serly is quieter, jolly but not as good as Cassandra and Lydia. The awkwardness of Serly is quite based because after introducing new students, Ms. Nina changed the class plan, and, moving Cassandra who was previously sitting next to Serly and the new kid named Jimmy has been sitting next to Serly now. Awkward indeed, but what can be done, Serly must make peace with the situation and inevitably he must melt this atmosphere by getting closer to each other. And that time came when the bell sign of rest time arrived.

" duh... Damnit... The teacher put me in the front seat and already, sitting next to a woman again." Jimmy said to me in his heart.
" Where I don't normally sit with a woman. I do have a sister, and a female friend who is close enough but we are not in class. In school before I never once sat down with a woman. I also have not had a good enough relationship with classmates because it was only a few months I had to move to this new school, at the eastern end of Java Island." Jimmy in my heart.
But Jimmy was determined to break the awkwardness between the two of them with maybe simple chats. And that time came when the bells of the sign of rest chimed.

After the subject teacher came out of the classroom, the students of class VII A went from their respective benches and out to the cafeteria, or even to another recreation room to let go of class fatigue.
In order to escape the awkwardness Serly pretended to clean up her books. Tidying up her bag and trying to find the whereabouts of her two best friends Cassandra and Lydia. But had not been able to find the whereabouts of the two friends, one palm stretched vertically in front of him. A split second Serly was glued gawking and confused what reaction he had to give to the call of acquaintance of the new student beside him. Then a few seconds later he gasped and hurriedly welcomed the invitation to the introduction.

" Your name is vain..."
" Greetings ken...."
It was so awkward that the two of them issued an introductory question simultaneously and were greeted with nervous faces and raw smiles from both of them.
" ah.... S-sorry, you go first!" Serly said nervously, pulling his hand from the grasp of the new disciple.
" I'm Jimmy as you heard from my introduction earlier, I'm from Jakarta. And can you know whose name you are?" Reply Jimmy at length dismissed the awkwardness between the two of them while showing his sweet smile.
" Huh.. show-off." Serly grumbled inwardly after seeing and realizing that Jimmy had a very sweet smile.
" My name is Serly. Serly Sriningsih's." Reply Serly briefly while showing off a makeshift smile.
Suddenly.
Prakkk..
Someone broke their table together.
" Cieeee... ," Cassandra appears from behind them and suddenly breaks into Jimmy and Serly's table.From behind her again appears Lydia while smiling at the knot of meaning.
" Sat. di... Both of these teenagers. Just wear a baperan show!" Shouted Cassandra as she looked at Serly and jimmy alternately.
" He was the one who when Mom and I entered this classroom again stood in front of the classroom." Jimmy said in his heart as he looked at Cassandra closely.
" Known. I'm Cassandra. I'm the class president here. And this is my friend Lydia. The three of us are pretty close." Cassandra said as she shook hands with Jimmy and Lydia.

" Jimmy, if you may know, where does your family live?" Cassandra asked when they were in the cafeteria. Cassandra tries to break the silence by trying to find out more about Jimmy.
" I don't have a place to live in this town yet." Jimmy answered briefly and tried his hardest.
" Huh?? Where do you live now?" Cassandra asked confused.
" We've stayed at the hotel so far. My uncle is still looking for a suitable residence for us in this Trenggalek." Reply Jimmy again.
" Uncle??" Serly muttered in the heart.
" Oh yeah? why at the hotel? why don't you just stay at the relatives' house?" Asked Lydia who had just been quiet.
Serly was about to ask, but he did not feel good if he too much to find out the background of the new students.
" If asked too much, I think I'll be baper again with him" said Serly in his heart.
" These women ask so much more" Jimmy lamented in his heart.
" We have no relatives in this town." Jimmy answered briefly.
The three are further confused by the answers given by Jimmy. As if implying that Jimmy has a fairly mysterious moving background.
Furthermore, they no longer discuss the origin of Jimmy, but they continue the chat about Trenggalek City and all its uniqueness and tours that he can visit later.
They also told and explained in outline about this Nusantara school. They say their school is one of the schools under a very famous foundation of the property of one of the big companies in the country.
Hearing their story Jimmy can only smile knot. He also feels a little more school in the future will be very colorful because he actually first met the woman at this new school. The three of them have their own unique.
Serly is the most beautiful of the three. Beautiful but a little indifferent and arguably sold expensive in the language of teenagers.
Cassandra is the type of teenager who is jovial, easy to get along with, humble and of course likes to ask questions. This is what makes him chosen as the class leader in their class.
Lydia is a Chinese teenager son of one of the Chinese businessmen in Trenggalek. Smart, cheap smile but talk a little shy when meeting new people.
Being in the middle of women honestly makes him uncomfortable especially seen by the students who happen to be in the cafeteria.
They finally returned to class after hearing the bells omen back to class. Cassandra invites Jimmy to join Serly's birthday. Upon hearing the invitation Jimmy promises to come after asking for Serly's home address.
