My name is Angga Saputra, 11th grade in a private school called Garuda
Abadi, one of the most popular schools in West Java, precisely this school
located in Bekasi area. This is my first semester in 11th grade, I
coming from a well-to-do family, I went to private school because
bursaries.
I get up from the bed, I try to stretch all over
my body, it's really good. My face was still lethargic yet as I glanced towards the clock
walls, HUH?! It's 07:00 already. I'll be late in the first semester
ku, I jumped out of bed and ran as fast as he could to the bathroom.
“Angga help mom briefly lift this gallon to the back,” said my mom
when I saw him running.
“Sorry mom I have bad luck, I have to shower and leave immediately
school,” I replied with breath gasping.
“Basic of this child,” said my mother while breathing out.
I'll be late, I'll be late, I'll be late. Though
it's the first day of the first semester, I open the bathroom door with
quickly and then close it tightly.
“Angga slowly! You want to smash the bathroom door?!”
yelled my father who heard the door.
I don't think taking a shower today is necessary to clean up, if I take long
just to take a shower, I'll be late. I'll get a toothbrush and
brushing my teeth, I face the glass and look at my teeth that are already clean, okay
a good! Then I made the bed and washed my face, and I came out of the bathroom
running towards the room, to put on the school uniform.
Come quickly, I put the books in my bag but I
don't know what book to put in, because it's so hunting.
“You didn't have breakfast first?” my mother asked, knocking on the door
my room's.
I'm done and ready to go to school, and
open the room door.
“Sorry ma'am I'm in a hurry, I will eat at school later,” I replied.
I ran towards the exit and immediately went to school with
riding bicycle. Why am I late like this, or maybe because of me
forgot to do schoolwork and do the work that night.
The point is I stay up late!!!
Let's get a little more to the school parking lot, finally arrived too
in parking. I parked my bike and ran straight to the gate
school. Ahh no, “Pak Edi!! Wait don't close it.” Mr. Edi is
the security guard at my school, he looked at me in confusion.
“Ohh Angga, tumben once you are almost late,” said Mr. Edi
with a confused face.
“I'm bad luck,” I replied.
“You drink? You just bought, want to drink first?”
“It so happens, thank you sir, father is good,” while
take water from Edi's hands.
“You're sidelining no hell? Your hair is like a thick hairy monkey,” teased
Mr. Edi.
“Very sir, sir the water, I want to go in first sir,
thank you sir,” said me.
“Basic of young people.”
I ran back to the classroom, because there will soon be
flag ceremony. I don't want a line on the part of people late, last
I'm late for the ceremony, I'm a joke on my friend in class, because
that I don't want to be late for the ceremony anymore, after all it makes me ashamed.
I ran through the teacher's room, I saw a woman.
Looks like he's a new transfer student, but I don't care, I have to be quick
put the bag in class. I finally got to class, then the bell
the ceremony rang, thankfully I was on time.
“Why Angga? Looks like bad luck,” taunted my friend.
He was my friend in a class called Rehan, he was a rich man.
Because this school is on average filled by the upper class, while I can
I went to school here on scholarship until graduation. Rehan is a pretty guy
very good and loves programming.
“I stayed up last night doing chores,” I replied.
“We better go to the field, soon the ceremony will be in
start,” invite Rehan.
“OK deh, come.”
After putting my bag on the chair, Rehan and I went to
the field to perform the flag ceremony.
Finally the ceremony was over as well, quite a bit my feet, starting from
leaving school until the end of the ceremony my feet have not rested at all.
Duh long way to go to class, this leg already wants to stop motion.
“Why? Your legs ache?” ask Rehan.
“Iyaa, I have not rested at all, my legs are sore at all,”
my answer.
“You want me to carry?” Rehan who was ready squatted in front of me to
give a ride.
“No! That's right, I'm still strong for the road to class.”
“He must be strong You are taekwondo athletes are not strong.”
Hmm I don't want to be late anymore, it's exhausting I have to rush
heading to school. I'd rather relax on my morning bike to get here,
after class I want to stretch my stiff legs.
“Ahh we finally get to class,” I said with a feeling of relief.
Time to stretch out this leg. Oiya Rehan is number 2
from the front to the right, while I'm number 2 from the back to the left. Rehan
approaching my desk on a leisurely walk.
“What time did you stay up last night?” ask Rehan.
“I stayed up until 2 am, I finished my work
school then I went to bed, and when I woke up I was surprised it was 7 am,”
my answer.
“You are, do the task why it should be sudden like that, right
it's better to do the task in the cicil but do it far away.”
“Iyaa, I forgot to do the task, because of the cool holiday.”
“Which part of the school gives assignments during the holidays,” said Rehan.
“Yaa so be it, just enjoy.”
The teacher of the first hour entered the classroom, but there was someone behind him.
Ahh he was, the student I had just seen while running through the teacher's room. Why
my male classmate looked at the new student woman with a strange look
like those. Hmm I know, looks like Rehan saw it too.
“Good morning kids, today we have a transfer student,
he is the son of the biggest investor for West Java,” said my teacher.
“Good morning, my name is Melani Sarina. I'm used to being called Melani,
I am a transfer student from Golden Street school in Jakarta,”, Melani said
introduce yourself.
Golden Street?! It was the number 1 school in Jakarta even number
1 In Indonesia, why did he transfer schools here? Not better there.
Yes I know Garuda Abadi and Golden Street schools are both schools with
accreditation A. But in terms of popularity, Golden Street is a very popular school
popular.
“I hope you can be good friends with me,” Melani said.
“Iyaa take it easy, we will definitely be good friends with you, if
there's nothing to say we're alone,” answers from some of the other male students.
He...they are why they are so enthusiastic about welcoming him, and why
Rehan even followed along with his very happy face. I just saw a face
like that from Rehan.
“Alright Melani you can please sit,” said my teacher.
“Melani sits beside here ajah ... Melani sat in front of me
here,” the voice of the boy in his class Angga.
“They are why the hell?” I said in my heart with a plain face.
Since the front desk of Angga was empty, Melani chose the table that was on
Angga Front.
Hm. So he sat in front of me, when there was already
offer him a seat, it's up to him. I realized the look from
the guys in the class, I looked at him with a scared face. Why are they this? Why
looking at me with that kind of look, as if they were saying,
“I'll kill you, Angga.”
Wait, why is Rehan also looking at me like that, seems to want me
just kick Rehan's face if he puts on that expression just now.
“Hai, my name is Melani, whose name are you?” melani who was in
in front of me.
I was surprised Melani suddenly asked that, even though my condition
being looked at with horrible gazes by the men in my class. From
on me pecan Melani, I better just answer, even though the man's gaze is on the
my right side is scary.
“Oh yes, my name is Angga, greetings know.”
“Ohh Angga, good name,” Melani said while putting on her face
her sweet smile.
Why her? Is he a smiley fellow? What is it that matters
the good guys.
“Oi Angga where will you go?!” say one friend
my guy in class with a killer look.
And why did Rehan even follow along like that. What your face wants me to
kick it?
Time Hours Break.
***
Time loved by the people
students from SD to High School level are time off hours. Because it was in a hurry
I did not have time to bring lunch, if this is what I want
buying food in the cafeteria, and again the food in the school cafeteria is expensive.
“You don't eat, Angga?” melani said in front of me.
“I forgot to bring my provisions, because I was in a hurry.”
“I brought lunch, do you want to eat together?” said.
“No, it's your lunch, you must be hungry too,” I said.
“Not to be ashamed, let's eat together,” he said while reversing
bench facing me.
When I saw the contents of his lunch box, he was carrying
seafood. That's lobster meat, so it's a rich man's lunch. He gave me
fork to eat and he uses his spoon. When I try to eat lunch
hers, this taste is like 5-star restaurant food, even though I myself have not
I've been to a 5-star restaurant. I can honestly say this food is very
tastier.
I think he was a really good person, while he was studying
The princess forgot to bring her stationery, Melani happily lent her tools
inscribed. The princess was the girl friend in my class who sat in front of Melani.
“Oiya, Angga you were why is it almost too late?” ask Melani
with reddish cheeks.
“Uh..I was bad luck, when I woke up I didn't realize it was hours
7 A.m., I was in a hurry,” I said.
“Mm... When you go home from school there are no activities?” ask Melani, please,
still with her cheeks flushed.
“If I go home from school until 19:00 I still have time,
after I have activities, what is it?” answer me and ask back.
“You want to accompany me to the library not after school?
You see I still do not memorize this school,” pinta Melani with a little taste
embarrassed.
“Ohh so that's it, I can accompany you to the library after hours
home school,” I said.
“Really? Thank you!” melani said with a sweet smile and
her cheeks are red.
But wait, I felt like someone was watching
our. I turned my head towards the classroom door, which turned out to be my boyfriend
peering out from the open door. Why are their eyes like
wanna kill me.
And also, why did Melani ask me for help? Not still
there was a woman in this class who could accompany him. If I refuse, I feel
it was uncomfortable because he had already split his lunch into me. It's nothing
just this day instead of him getting lost here and there.
Then my friend who was at the door went inside and
coming to me and Melani.
“Angga instead of you already promised with us going to the cafeteria?”
friend said.
“Appointments? Since when do I promise to go to the cafeteria with you guys?”
I said with confusion.
They want to eat, I'm enjoying a good meal,
I rarely eat seafood. They don't like to see their friends eat
just good food once.
“Ayo Angga we go to the canteen together, relax you will us
jajanin kok,” while pulling me and with a face that feels innocent.
I was pulled out by my friends and one of my friends
say to me,
“How did you get close to Melani?” ask my friend with
suspicious face.
“I just sat down then she offered her lunch,” I replied.
“Then why did you accept it?” ask Rehan.
“Yaa..because the contents of the lunch were lobsters so I accepted, because,
I rarely get to eat lobster, and the lobster is so good,”
I said with a smiling face.
“So you just love the food,” said my friend in a soft voice.
“Sure,” I said.
Why my friend looks so sorry after hearing
my explanation, is there something wrong with my explanation earlier? I'm just saying
to be honest, indeed the lobster Melani brought for her lunch was very good.
***
Time to go home, this is what I'm waiting for because I can
quickly go home and lie down for a while, then resume activities. I put in
books and other stationery into the bag, I checked under the bag
my desk, don't let anything get left behind at school because I'm lazy
to take it back to school.
“Mm...times to go home,” I said while breathing a sigh of relief.
I walked towards the classroom door then after I opened the door,
there was Melani waiting beside the door while leaning against the wall and closing
his eye. And there I just remembered I promised Melani I would
he went to the library after school. But did he really sleep
while standing?
“Melani?” I told Melani who was closing her eyes like
the one who is asleep.
“Ohh Angga, I've been waiting for you here why are you long enough?”
he said while yawning.
“I was sorting out first, did we go to
library?” my many.
“Of course come on,”
I walked down the school hall with Melani to the library,
my fall was delayed for delivering Melani. Why should I be her
pinta, though she can take the Princess sitting right in front of her.
“you know?! You were the first person I met in class
only after that Princess,” said.
“Since I SD until now I have never had friends,”
continue saying.
“Then when you went to school on Golden Street, didn't you have any
friends?” ask me out of curiosity.
“Not at all, they stayed away from me because I was the son of
the richest investor in West Java even in Indonesia, they all consider me
it's different with them, they're not too comfortable if I hang out with
they, just because I'm rich,” Melani said with a gloomy face.
“But instead of Golden Street is a school with average students
his rich man?” my many.
“Iya is a lot, but more children excel there,”
“So you moved here because you want to find friends?” much
any more.
“Iyaa,” answer.
Hmm rich people are different, I went to school here because I got
scholarship, I'm lucky to be able to go to school here, because Garuda Abadi is
school with high cost. He moved here just to
making friends.
“And I managed to blend in with you when I met you,
and Princess also wants to mingle and make friends with me, it's enough to make me happy,”
said.
“Then why did you choose me to accompany you to the library?”
my many.
“Umm..that's because of me..I...,” Melani while turning her face and.
blushing on his cheeks.
“I.. whatever I want to invite who ajah! I happen to have
tell you first so yes already,” continued he said while facing me.
Mm, Melani's cheeks are red, is she not feeling well?
“Umm...Your cheeks are flushed, are you sick?” ask because
curious.
“Ahh...not this is just my habit only kok,” said Melani while
smiling shy.
“Ohh so good, I thought you were sick.”
As I walked towards the library with Melani through the hallway,
I looked my head towards the window. I saw a woman standing there
near a thick tree, what is he doing there? The woman looked at
our direction, I saw her face, very beautiful woman, about which she was
in which class.
