The Foreign Taste

MOS

A week had passed since the day of the SMAN 2 Y city entrance selection examination. The announcement of students who passed the selection was already installed in the school mading.

Two days ago Ranum and Kania jostled with other prospective students to see their names and test results.

And when they found the word 'LULUS' written next to their name, Kania jumped up because she was so happy. While Ranum just smiled wider than usual.

Although there is a little disappointed also in the heart of Kania because it has to be different classes with Ranum. It's class X.6. While Ranum class X.1.

Ranum and Kania read the announcement regarding the school entry date, MOS (Student Orientation Period), as well as MOS-related requirements.

After recording the MOS requirements that needed to be taken, the two went straight home.

MOS will last for the first three days of school admission. More precisely next week.

MOS activities in SMAN 2 Y city seems to be fairly normal. Starting from the MOS requirements that are quite easy to provide, and the contents of MOS activities that are really intended for students to get to know the school and all the extracurricular activities in the school.

Perhaps reflecting from past years that have led to more protests due to the birth of victims of violence, MOS this year does not want the bad experience of last year to repeat itself.

Good though. Education should be clean from violence.

About five days before the MOS began, Mommy gave Ranum and Kania a white-gray uniform.

Ranum's ash skirt is a few inches below the knee. With a little rimpel on the front center of her skirt.

While the A-line Kania ash skirt with three ash butterflies decoration on the top side of the skirt. It was in accordance with his request to Mother.

For matters of fashion, Kania almost always appear polite and fashionable. Unlike Ranum who always appear plain and simple.

And also the awaited day of MOS.

From six o'clock Ranum was already busy decorating himself. He was wearing his old Junior High uniform again. Then pout his hair along the waist with his typical model, ponytail.

Ranum then pinned seven red straws on his hair. Afterwards, he wrapped around her waist with a red scarf.

When he was about to take the conical hat from the red cardboard paper located on the mattress, Kania's voice stopped him.

"Sister Ranum. That's a scarf why it's on the waist of that kayak? That's why it's also pickling the straw? Here's real Kania."

As Ranum turned his head, he was a little stunned. He saw Kania look beautiful as usual, but Kania also wore the same MOS equipment as him. It's just that all his attributes are pink.

Kania's hair that was along her arms was allowed to unravel. There are only two small braids on the right and left side of his head which he then covers with small butterfly shaped straw ties.

Then a pink scarf patterned with small butterflies appears to wrap around his neck neatly. The pink cone hat was formed higher than Ranum's with a short tail like pink hair at the top.

So when Kania wears her MOS attribute, she instead looks like a pretty witch.

Ranum stunned. Even more stunned when Kania suddenly took off the ponytail in her hair. He also took off all the straw ties that exist.

"Eh, Nia. Do not take it off again. This is what time try. Brother hasn't had breakfast yet."

"Nia from the past was gatel pingin change the appearance of Kak Ranum. Brother is beautiful. Light yellow skin, round eyes, pretty sharp nose, tiny face ala baby face, and the most make Nia envious tuh black hair bushy and long have this brother,"

"It's hard to get your hair out. If it has passed along the arm it often falls out badly. Hence Nia's hair was this long."

Ranum. He intentionally extended his hair. Because he likes the sensation when leaving his long hair with fingers. It makes the heart calm.

"Eatya, already have a good capital like gini ya benefitsin dong Kak. Decorate as beautiful as possible."

"What's it doing, Nia?" Tanya Ranum suddenly.

"Yes make-"

"Search gebetan? Find boyfriend?" Guess Ranum.

"Not only for that, Kak.kan if we look beautiful, Mother's father can also be proud," replied Kania.

"Is that so?" Tanya Ranum was not sure.

"Yes! Send it all to Nia! Nia will make Brother appear chic and naturally beautiful," exclaimed Kania fiery.

As a result for the next few minutes, Ranum let Kania mess/tink her hair, while he had breakfast fried rice.

After Kania finished, he seemed amazed to see his own work. And Ranum who was stared like that by Kania became embarrassed and misbehaved.

When Ranum was about to see the results of his sister's hand in the living room mirror, Kania forbade him. He reasoned that he was afraid that his brother would even damage the results of his hair makeup if Ranum saw it.

Ranum also gave up. He just followed her sister said. And at exactly seven in the morning, Ranum and Kania left for school.

Along the way, many people were paying attention to Ranum and Kania. Ranum thought, 'maybe because we're wearing these MOS accessories. So it looks weird'.

It seemed like everything was in unison to come early, in order to avoid the punishment of the seniors.

As the MOS event begins, all participants line up according to the attribute color group, in other words the corresponding row of their respective classes. And Ranum found that there was no familiar face in the line where he was.

'I think we should find a new team!' thought Ranum.

Throughout the implementation of MOS on the first day, the activities carried out are the introduction of classrooms, teacher rooms, TU rooms, prayer rooms, canteens, music rooms, labs. Computers, and labs. Mixed for MIPA maple.

Each row of MOS participants was guided by three seniors. With two senior sons and one senior daughter.

Heran Ranum felt he was often the center of attention that day. Some of his classmates also dared to invite him to meet, something that has rarely happened to him so far.

Ranum is embarrassed when dealing with the opposite sex. Generally, he always keeps a distance from boys, so that without realizing his male friends used to keep their distance from him.

But today, with his attitude that is not much to say, Ranum is often invited to meet by his student classmates.

Her astonishment was answered when a student friend greeted her. Her name is Tika. A Chinese with pure white skin, narrow eyes, and dimples on the right side of his face.

'beautiful.' Inner Ranum when looking at Tika.

"You are beautiful" said Tika.

"Yes. You are beautiful," Sahut behind Ranum who is still dumbstruck staring at Tika.

After a few seconds, it was realized that Tika had just praised him.

"Eh? I'm pretty?" Tanya Ranum was not sure.

"Ihihi. You're. beautiful. Funny too. Time is not aware if you are beautiful," said Tika while laughing softly.

"I'm Tika. We are class. Don't you have any winners yet?" Ask Tika.

"Ranum. I'm Ranum. I don't have any acquaintances in this class" he replied slowly.

"Then we'll do it!" Invite Tika.

Feeling a little embarrassed from being approached by a beautiful friend, Ranum simply replied with a nod and a timid smile. Seeing him, Tika laughed again.

"Ranum, you're funny."

And friendship was established between the two until the bell came home to separate them.

Arriving at home, the new clock shows at 12 noon. It is not the bathroom or bedroom that Ranum aims for when he arrives.

As soon as he arrived, Ranum walked into the living room and stood in front of the mirror. When he saw the shadow that appeared there, he saw what people saw from him all day.

On the body-sized mirror in front of Ranum, stood a beautiful daughter.

Ranum found that his face was still the same as usual. What makes it different is her hair makeup.

Usually Ranum combed his hair so that the middle to then twist his hair on the back so ponytail. It looks ordinary.

But at this time, his long black hair was poxed centipede backwards. With a little bangs in front of him.

Ranum did realize that this morning Kania had cut a bit of the front of her hair. But he didn't know the results would be this good.

On the top right and left side of his head, the red straw was tied so neatly that it looked like a small rose.

"Where's the work, Nia? Good right? That's a lot of big brother who's seduced isn't it?" Said Kania suddenly behind Ranum.

"Cania! Just ngagetin!" Jerit Ranum's.

"Deuh.sampe did not realize that Nia was behind. Concerned about his own shadow doang kok yaa. but really Kak. brother tuh beautiful you know if often decorated. Add the powder ama lipglos. It could be the second most beautiful in our generation. The first kania. Hihihi.." goda Kania.

"So. Kapok brother. Don't want to ah dress up again. There are even many temptations. Don't-don't you deliberately yes deck, ornamental hair Brother kayak gini?" Ranum asked suddenly while squinting.

Kania who was asked instead immediately fled to the room while shouting.

"Sister to ge-er-an ah!"

Ranum grunted softly. After that, he released all of his MOS attributes one by one. Until he saw his black hair hanging freely.

Then he took a comb and swiped his hair back like his usual model. Ponytail model.
