The Dark Side of High School Kids

Chapter 3 - Uniformed Basketball Teams

...༻☆༺...

The break bell rings. All students are out of class. Including Raffi and his friends.

"Main basketball yuk! I have a simple ball," Gamal asked. The matter of rebellion, he was indeed always ahead. Everyone knows, students who exercise in uniforms will get minus points from teachers. The regulation has long been established, that only students dressed in sports can play on the field. At least the regulation applies in Angkasa Jaya High School.

"Gue is no problem. At least Raffi who does not agree," replied Danu. Glancing towards Raffi. While Tirta quickly nodded to agree with Danu's opinion.

"Gue doesn't matter if it's in the indoor field" said Raffi. Caused Gamal's eyes to turn panted.

"Indoor's? Hot times, Raf. The field in the middle of the school. A little charm. I want to find a tenth grader who really likes me." Gamal explained while grimacing. Swiping his chin with high expectations.

"God! Lo, Mal. Don't you deket the same Ratna huh?" Danu pushes Gamal's head upset.

"Gee! Ratna's? Not very. One-class courtship often has problems with BK teachers," Gamal responded cynically.

At that time, Raffi's attention was directed towards the XI MIPA 2 class. There Elsa is seen joking with a guy from her class. They laugh at each other over something. I don't know why the moment made Raffi's feelings disturbed. The talk of his three friends only faintly sounded in the ears.

Raffi was never really interested in Elsa. His little friend was a little tomboyish. But when Elsa has been growing her hair lately, everything has changed. Elsa is more feminine and beautiful.

"Raf? Raffy!" call Gamal. Successfully resuscitated Raffi's daydream in an instant.

"Eh, what the hell is that?" Raffi quickly looked at his fat-haired friend.

"You're not coming?" Gamal stared expectantly. The same thing was done by Danu and Tirta.

Raffi turned to Elsa again. Whether what kind of demon affects him, until Raffi intends to play basketball. The head nod was done by him. Cause Gamal, Tirta and Danu to exclaim with pleasure. They rush to get Gamal's stash basketball. It just so happened that Gamal kept it behind the school. Under the pile of unused benches.

This isn't the first time Raffi has played basketball in a uniform. Despite being an exemplary child, Raffi knows the right time to break the rules. He usually does it during the break. Teachers are busy gathering in the office.

Since becoming friends with Gamal, Raffi can not be separated from the bad influence. Even so, Raffi knew the limits to where breaking the rules was. He was determined not to do anything too much like Gamal. Especially something like ditching.

"The number is less. Six more people!" tirta said as he watched his three close friends. He was busy bouncing the basketball to the ground.

"Okay, that's easy. We ask the younger brother class," said Gamal while looking at the row of the tenth class. The tenth graders were clustered in front of the class.

"Ridwan! Here lo!" call Gamal. To the ten-weight students. The student named Ridwan rushed to Gamal.

"Why, Brother?" ask Ridwan.

"Take your friend to play basketball. Four people yes!" gamal's Order. He was always like a boss.

"okay, Sis. Sip!" Ridwan turned his thumb to the front of his face. Then immediately call four friends of his choice.

"Well, how are we? Just the four of them?" ask Raffi astonishment.

"Ah, ask Yoga to join us." Gamal waved at his old friend. Yoga happens to be a close friend of Gamal who is in class XI IPS 1.

Gamal grabs the ball from Tirta's throw. He turned his black bead towards Raffi who was busy covering his face from the scorching sun.

Without a second thought, Raffi immediately took out a shirt from his pants. Now he and his friends are ready to play basketball.

Watching the popular children play, the other students began watching. Especially the disciples of the women. They make the atmosphere of an impromptu match become splashy. There were watching from the second, third floor, as well as the outskirts of the field.

"Too excited, right?" raffi asked as he turned to the direction the teacher room was in.

"Don't think about it. It's still a break!" reply Gamal who impressed relaxed.

Raffi according to him. He, Gamal and the others started dribbling. Attacking opponents coming from tenth grade students.

The tie and white uniform that Raffi wore, fluttered as he ran. Raffi dribbles the ball into the opponent's ring. Thinking of giving the ball to his teammates.

"Buck!" Raffi threw the ball at Gamal. His friend was standing near the ring.

After receiving the ball, Gamal immediately put it in the ring. Its tall body, makes it easy for the ball to get into the ring in an instant. The triumphant cheer echoed. Both from Raffi's team and the audience were supportive.

Raffi smiled until he showed his neat teeth. He did not forget to do a high five to Gamal and other team mates.

"Excite, Raffi!" the shrieking sound of the Gita attracted attention. She is a student of XI IPS 3. Gita is one of the schoolgirls who is shameless when it comes to expressing feelings. Where there's a handsome guy, that's where he is.

"Huuuu..."

"Gita!"

"My-me, but not admitted. Huuu..."

Gita had to accept the scorn from the other students. But he doesn't care. His attenuation was focused only towards Raffi.

Right where Gita was standing, there was Elsa watching. He was stunned by Gita's flirtatious attitude. There was a feeling of disgust and also resentment. But Elsa knows very well, Raffi never cares about strange girls like Gita. He knows his best friend better than anyone else.

"Excite, bucin tempe!!" Elsa doesn't want to lose. He also supported Raffi.

Bucin tempeh, that's how Elsa called Raffi. While Raffi calls Elsa bucin to know. Where there is tofu, there is also tempe. But Raffi and Elsa have a favorite meal of their own. From childhood until now the two foods became their favorite dishes.

Raffi turned his gaze towards Elsa. He flexed his tongue, then refocused it with the ball. The sweat began to pour due to the hot sun and sports activities.

Elsa pulled the corner of her lips upwards. His eyes were weak. Where Raffi moves, that's where his eyeballs follow.

Five minutes passed. Raffi and his team have successfully put the ball into the ring three times. They had not stopped playing before the entrance bell rang.

Over time the audience grew. The nonchalant twelfth grader, even joined the crowd of spectators. The atmosphere finally managed to steal the attention of the teachers in the office.

"What's the commotion?" ask Ms. Salsa while chewing the orange.

"Let me just check." Mr. Darto as a teacher of Mathematics and deputy principal, volunteered to check the commotion.
