Sulastri's Struggle.
Chapter 30
Days changed, a week Tri taught at Vocational High School. There are so many problems with children. Starting from jokester to end fights, often late, skipping school, and others. Tri must face it wisely.
At the break when all the children came out, there was one of the moody children on his stool. Not wanting to join his friends. All that could not be separated from the attention of Tri who was still sitting in front.
"Brina... What's wrong? I noticed, since this morning you have been moody, my same story, let's just say we are friends" said Tri sage.
"Hiks hyks hyks" the girl named Sabrina cried.
"Brina.. Why are you crying? Come on, story, I told you earlier, let's just say we're friends," on Brina's back rub that was shaking.
"Mom Tri. Please ma'am, don't get me out of this school" Brina kissed Tri's leg. Tri was shocked and soon woke Sabrina up.
"Brina. don't be this dear," Tri hugged Brina's body. Letting Brina cry, if it could reduce her burden. Until a few minutes when Brina began to calm down.Tri stretch his arms and then stared fixedly while holding his shoulder.
"Say Brina, what did you do wrong? So you're gonna be kicked out of school?" asked Pastri softly.
"I haven't paid SPP for six months" Brina replied in the end.
"I'm sorry, what did your parents do?" tanya Tri lirih, events like this remind Tri when the school used to be.
"My father was actually a saleswoman, and has been unemployed for months" Brina recounted. His father used to be a salesman, not just buying a house. But the big class, then his parents dare to enter his son's school here. The expensive school.
"Alright Brina, about... how much is your spp arrears?" Tri looked at Brina softly.
"Three million, ma'am," Brina looked at Tri feeling a little relieved, this one teacher is indeed amazing, not only giving lessons in school, especially. This beautiful teacher always taught me the meaning of life.
"Well Brina, I will talk to the foundation, hopefully, my proposal that you not be expelled from this school is listened to, I ask you to be patient" said Lastri.
"You'd better take a break,
got no pocket money?" added Tri. Sabrina shook her head while looking down.
"This is for you snack" Tri gave a sheet of 50 thousand.
"But Mom," Sabrina glazed over.
"Then let's accept it, keep you snacking with your friends," Tri clutched the money into Sabrina's palm.
"Thank you, ma'am" Sabrina then walked out of the classroom to the school cafeteria.
Tri looked at Sabrina's steps, breathing heavily.Sabrina's remaining 6 months will face the test, it's a pity if Sabrina gets kicked out of school.
Tri opened the bag checking the remaining savings balance to pay for his two younger siblings at school. "Still enough," he murmured. Tri immediately took a ride to the nearest bank. He took cash. After this month has paid the installment of the house, there is the right of others every sustenance he gets. Think Tri.
After getting the money, Tri went back to school, happened to have teaching hours finished and rushed to the TU room.
"Mom Tri, how can I help you?" ask Hamzah. When Tri suddenly meets him.
"Sir Hamzah, may I know, SPP arrears named Sabrina, how many?" tanya Tri makes sure.
"Please sit down Mom" said Hamzah as TU, at Al INNAYAH school.
Lastri then sat down in front of Hamzah. Hamzah opened the tome and searched for a name that started with S, then went to Sabrina.
"There's Mom. Sabrina has not paid SPP for one semester, a total of 3 million," Hamzah said, explaining. "Two weeks ago, ma'am. Ms. Bella Adnan's fiancee, kekeh asked Sabrina to be expelled from this school," Hamzah added.
"Bella's? Inner Tri. He thought, from the first woman named Bella was not satisfied to make others miserable.
"Well, why Mom?" Hamzah looked at Lastri furrowed, astonished.
"I can't explain here sir" Tri certainly doesn't want to be labeled as a favoritism teacher. Although all the teachers know, the students who attend school here are the average children of rich people.
Tri then paid the arrears entirely. They did not know, if there was a pair of eyes that had been paying attention since.
Plok plok.
When Tri was handing over the money the sound of applause from behind made Tri turn his head. So did Hamzah raise his head quickly. Tri and Hamzah looked at each other.
"Hahaha.poor girl! want to be a hero!" bella sarcasm. Fold both hands in front of the chest.
Tri and Hamzah ignored the caci maki Bella actually continued the initial goal.
"You're a bitch! Or deaf?!" cynical Bella, does not reflect a teacher.
"I think it's enough to get here sir, I'm sorry," Tri said in no way to respond to Bella.
"Thank you, ma'am" said Hamzah.
"Together Sir," Tri passed by Bella, who was looking at him unhappily.
"Wait!" peekot Bella. But Lastri did not pay attention to it. He immediately returned to class because he had to teach. Makes Bella clench her hands. There was not a single teacher in the room, as all had returned to the second hour of study.
*******
During the day when he returned home to teach, Arman immediately to the parking lot, this time he drove a motorcycle. In the parking lot Arman deliberately noticed Tri, where usually Lastri waiting for transportation. This is the time to be able to persuade Tri, if yesterday-yesterday always fails. While there are no bullies because Mustofa today is not teaching hours, Adnan is unlikely to come to school if Bella has teaching hours.
He sat on his motorbike as if he was not blinking like an eagle eyeing a victim. His lips smiled as the girl he loved walked sideways.
Ngeeeenng. Let's just say the motor sound stops so 🤭🤭🤭.
Arman opened the helmet cover glass he lifted up. When the bike stopped in front of Tri.
"Tri, let's go up" he said but Tri melengos. This is not the first time for Tri. Arman wants to drive home.
"Tri please. I want to talk to you a lot, please listen to my explanation, this time, after you know my story, if you will still hate me, it's your right," arman said.
"What do you want to say, tell me?!" ask Tri coldly.
"Eat him come on, not here, see the children a lot, it seems less appropriate if they see us talking on the side of the road" said Arman.
Tri then looked left right, it was true what Arman said. What else if the 3rd grade A children see it certainly must keep the image.
"Chat where?" tanya Tri finally relented.
"Wear this helmet first you will know," Arman handed over the helmet, apparently he had already made plans for this meeting.
"Kaya ojek only, bring two helmets" said Tri but did not stop accepting it. Makes Arman chuckle. "I'm a motorcycle taxi driver, but a motorcycle taxi is for you personally" Arman smiled again.
Tri just shut up and then got on the bike.
"Tight grip yes, I want to speed the thing," Arman's claw again chuckled. Where do you want Lastri handle, during contact with Tri. Tri has never held a friendly hand.
