The Beautiful High School
Part 26 - New Teachings
4 Months Later
As Grace wishes, the relationship between Grace and Indra is only a friend but still familiar. There is no distance between the two. Sometimes they sit together. Sometimes we walk together to the X River.
Grace has not opened her heart to anyone. Not traumatized but carefully choosing to go through the relationship and not willing to waste time just for things that are not important.
This is at the end of the semester, all students are struggling for the final exam of the semester. As always, Grace will take the special time to learn to prepare for the exam. Notes that he has (sometimes Grace asks others to take notes because he is often given the task to write on the board so it is not surprising if in one page can change the writing), so that the writing can be changed, he learned again if there is nothing incomprehensible directly ask the teacher. Grace never asked her friends about the lesson, she would ask the teacher directly because Grace did not easily believe her friend's answer. Understandably, Grace is always the first champion.
Exams are ongoing. All students strive to get satisfactory grades. But not all can do the given problem including Grace. Although Grace was the smartest student, there were some lessons she could not master such as History and geography. But Grace didn't give up. He will keep trying, no matter what value he gets.
The tests have been passed. A feeling of relief because he had finished his exam. Feelings of worry because of their values. Whatever value Grace usually gets, not lower than her friend. Always superior.
The appraisal report had been received and it was Gracelah who championed it. That need not be doubted.
With the end of the even semester and the increase in classes, the dormitory will come new students and students. This is where Grace also begins rehearsals to welcome those working with the theatre team. Grace was appointed as the event leader so she had to take time out for rehearsals.
The event took place with great fanfare at Grace's command as the show's leader. The songs have been prepared, the musical performer is ready and the theatre cast has also been prepared. Grace did not want this show to fail. And as a result, all the events went well until they were finished there were no obstacles and obstacles whatsoever. All the committee can work well together and compact.
New school year and new friends for Grace. This year even Grace made more male friends. Grace also had time to think of making a gang with her new friends. But Grace thought again, that it wasn't good.
The next day, Grace meets two new men.
"My name is Silwanus." by thrusting his hand and greeted by Grace.
"Grace."
"Stephano"
"Grace" alternately shook hands.
"I heard here there is a favorite place that is the mainstay of the children's dormitory" said Silwanus.
"Oh yeah, it's on the X river. Wanna there?" answer Grace.
"You." answered both.
"Oh yes. Ntar afternoon the three of us pergia ya.." take Grace.
"Isn't it all three?" ask Stephen.
"It's okay" Grace replied.
In the afternoon they meet in the dining room to go to river X together as Grace says. They also passed the usual path that Grace passed with her friends despite the main road.
"Eh this money." cried Grace when she saw the five thousand rupiah money lying in the middle of the road. It is good to buy cendol dawet ice.
"Take Grace if you want" said Stephen.
"Don't, it's got people" Silwanus said.
Between demons and angels is at war in Grace's ear. The angel to the right of Grace's ear and the demon to Grace's left. They fight, who wins affects Grace.
"Come on Grace, take it.... It's good to buy ice cendol dawet." whispered the devil.
"Don't Grace, the man's looking." whispered the angel.
"Nobody knows that you took it, Grace." whispered the devil who would not lose.
"Don't Grace!!" whispered angel again.
Eventually Grace decided not to take the money and just passed by.
"Ahhhh, suck you Grace." whispered the defeated demon and was ashamed of the angels and angels sticking out his tongue towards the demon.
"Ueeeeekkk." ledek the victorious angel of the devil.
They continued to walk until they reached the lips of the X river.
"Sit is to sit around." commented Silwanus.
"For those who have no money." - Stephen.
"Hahaha right. Including me." Grace replied with a laugh. "Usually we are here to throw fatigue while in the dorm. Let's not be bored." continued Grace while putting her ass on the seat made of pieces of sawn wood.
They enjoyed the atmosphere of the X river for a while while telling stories about the state of the Dormitory. From their conversation, Grace captures that they are no longer comfortable living in the dorm. Not because of the rules alone but because they are not in accordance with their wishes and expectations. Grace heard him could only sigh. That means, their friendship will not last long.
After feeling enough to enjoy the beauty of the X river, they decided to return. Fortunately, Grace did not meet with Wanto again so she could chat with satisfaction. There is a doubt if it suddenly appears but the worry does not occur.
At 17:30 they arrived at the dormitory. Grace went straight to the room to clean up because the time for dinner would not be long. Similarly, the two men who immediately pay to their respective rooms. They split up in the dining room which was the connecting room between the male and female dormitories. In the dining room this is what they often use to chat and relax because the room is open.
Before going to the bathroom, Grace took the time to sit around for a while to straighten the legs that she used to walk away. Grace feels grateful to be able to meet new friends and get to know those who come from several different islands with different cultures and languages but one language, Indonesian.
After Grace took 10 minutes to rest, Grace grabbed her clothes and all her bathing needs and went to the bathroom to clean up. For 10 minutes, Grace spent her time on her bathing ritual. She came out of the bathroom dressed in full but the towel was still on her head to wrap her wet hair.
Teng ... teng .. teng .....
The bells ringing the dinner hour has arrived. One by one they came out of the room and took seats according to the group. A loud voice sounded from all directions. Each group was busy joking around while waiting for their rations. After they all got their rations, they prayed and began to eat that simple meal.
"Yud, we play this." take Grace to Yudi by showing blank paper that is crossed out. In that game, the crossed out paper should be folded in half. The part that was cut inside. The player has to cross the outside. If it can hit the inside stroke with a fit until the Scribble is finished, then he is the winner.
Not only that, Dona who has a ballpoint with glass ends is also used for his silly actions. He'll look for the person he likes and see it from that ballpoint. It was there that Dona could see various expressions of those around him, especially for the people of Adam.
"Here Don, borrow!!!" Grace snatches the glazed ballpoint from Dona's hands and begins to search for prey.
"Bas with you Grace!!!" dona Overestimate.
"Beauty Don!!!" said Grace instantly.
"Who?" ask Dona.
"There's a deh.." Grace teases Dona who is looking at some handsome new guy. Not Grace's intention to flirt or be attracted to the Adam's, Grace was just a fad of flirting with them.
"If we look at this yes, more of us are not learning. All on chatting and making a mess. Seriously, learning is just a bunch of classes that get PR" Grace said.
"You are Grace's culprit." said Yudi. Yudi is also no less interesting. The skin is rather bright, the hair is curly, the eyes are bello, the body is thin like a plywood and he is one tribe with Grace, namely Java. Grace was a little fascinated by Yudi's face. More than just admiring.
The clock has shown at 21:30, all members of the dorm must have finished studying and at 22:00, each member must have entered the dormitory. After entering the dormitory, it is not uncommon for them to immediately take a position on his favorite kapuk island. Usually they are still chatting by talking about new things that they have gotten on that day. There are also those who still read the Bible for those who belong to spiritual life. If Grace belongs to a group that likes to make a mess and splash.
One by one, they no longer make any sound. There is still silence. Only 1 or 2 people left in and out of the room because of the toilet. If everyone had fallen asleep, the atmosphere was completely deserted. Fortunately, it is not like the old days that there are demons everywhere. However, if you feel like going to the toilet, the devil is not a barrier for Grace.
Silent and quiet, only the sound of clockwork dominates the room. Although not seen, but still turning. Seconds become minutes, minutes become hours. Keep turning tirelessly.
Cring... cring...
The hour hand was set at 04:30 to wake up the entire room. Not infrequently ignored and even turned off and went back to sleep because the eyes were still reluctant to open.
They were forced to wake up when the lord of the dormitory had already banged on the door and called one by one.
Grace
Dona
Lina
Reni
Goddesses
Lucifer
Ita
Mimi
Sinda
"Yes Mom" that's just their answer. Slowly they opened their eyes to adjust the light of the lamp that illuminated their room. After feeling all the lives had accumulated on their bodies, they quickly woke up and took the soap and headed to the bathroom to wash their faces.
Everyone is required to follow the morning prayer except for those who are sick and who are on duty in the kitchen. Mother and Father of the dorm will travel from room to room to check the members whether there are still sleeping. If they still find someone sleeping, they will wait until they wake up. The hostel's father and mother must ensure that no one is in the room during the prayer.
The morning prayer has begun. Each followed with wisdom. Especially when listening to lectures, many things they get for capital live that day and the future as a fence and handle life so as not to go wrong.
After the morning prayer is finished, usually the builder will give an announcement if there are serious things. For this time there will be a service work activity for the new class.
"Because we will occupy a new building, then some of the people I appointed who will be in charge of cleaning later in the afternoon at 15:00 after the break. Grace, Yanto, Depi, Dona, Rina, Reni, Econ, Vinus and Joshua. These names will clean up the new building on the second floor" the builder said.
"All right sir." replied Grace. "The others I know but who are Econ, Vinus and Joshua? how did I hear that name? Ahhh, bodo. The important thing is that I do my job." Grace said in a curious heart with the three new names.
"Second announcement from me. Good mornin. Happy activities and happy learning. God bless."
"God bless you too sir." exclaimed all the members of the dorm who each lifted their bodies from their seats and headed to the room to lay down their Bibles.
After that, return to their respective groups to work on their pickets in accordance with the tasks that have been shared. In doing this picket, no one can see it or not care. Whether senior, junior, being or not all have to work. It forms the spirit of gotong royong, togetherness and humility for each person.
The picket, shower, and meal are done. Time to study in class with your favorite teachers. There was no distance between teachers and students even they could be considered brothers. Teachers are also objective, not discriminating or favoritism. All the same in their eyes. All need good, friendly and comfortable tutoring.
Learning is over. Lunch is also. They should rest for a while to calm the brain that is already drained in class. Just biding his time for the task given by the builder, which is cleaning the new building.
*Be with as many people as possible so you can learn from them to add to your insights and knowledge. But do not be friends with those who will plunge you so that you do not fall mired in promiscuity.*
