The Morning Mentari

Final Exams

This morning the Graduation Exam will be held at Bina Bangsa High School. Likewise, all high schools throughout Indonesia, also carry out the final stage exam.

Students of Bina Bangsa High School have prepared themselves in advance to face the test today. Starting with the bimbel, Les prifat, and also additional lessons in the school are taken, in order to get the highest score in the National Examination. Of course, to easily enter the desired college.

This also makes students and even parents justify all means to achieve the highest grades and the best places.

For Asya, this of course did not happen.

Despite facing the test, Asya is still busy working in the cake shop and Cafe The Delmonte.

The closer the time of the test, The Delmonte is getting crowded by visitors. Not to mention cake orders for birthday events and tasyakuran, also demanding Asya remain professional working despite being tested.

He prefers to work, rather than studying for the National Examination. Looking for rupiah according to Asya is the main one. Although it can not be denied Asya also worried about the test score. But good or bad value for Asya will not be a problem. He will not continue his studies either. Thought Asya....

Mama Rosi continues to encourage Asya to continue her studies. He urged Asya to accept a scholarship from Bu Arum or find a merit scholarship for him. Mama Rosi is very confident that Asya is able to obtain an achievement scholarship.

While Asya just resigned, refused to think too complicated. For him to live without a father and the shadow of his roller coaster family life is like a bad shadow.

How not. Life Asya and his family who used to be struggling with treasure, in an instant turned into a homeless man, let alone the house, to eat only he had difficulty. The losses borne by his father have not been able to be covered.

He had to be willing to leave his house, because the house he occupied was confiscated by the Bank.

.........

~ Flash Back On ~

I don't know what mistakes were made by Mr. Surya Atmaja on the largest Mall development project in Jakarta, so all his property was confiscated to cover his losses.

Five years ago, the family of Surya Atmaja was forced out of his large and luxurious palace-like home.

Not many things they could carry, just a few clothes. Because luxury goods are in it, also including being confiscated goods.

Mama Rosila's eyes wet because the water just kept seeping in the corner of her eyes. He held strong sobs so as not to increase the burden for Pak Surya. His heart was so bitter to imagine the fate of his daughter's son.

At that time Asya was still in class VIII, while Arsya was still in school at Kindergarten, had to share the family's suffering.

Some bags and boxes containing clothes and items that can be owned by the Atmaja family have been lined up neatly in the yard.

Mr. Surya just kept quiet. Of course his heart was turbulent.

Only the word "sorry.." was said. Scars of sadness and regret were clearly visible on his face.

Mama Rosila tried to comfort Mr. Surya.

"It's okay Well, we can start over again. Said mama Rosi rubbed the shoulder of Surya sir.

Mr. Surya looked at Rosi's mother's face. Trying to smile in the midst of his pain.

Mama Rosi knows very well, if the husband she loves is now also the same suffering as her. Maybe even more suffering. He felt that he had failed to become the Head of the family who had to protect his wife and children.

.........

"Sir.... Ma'am.. come with me....". Invite Ms. Mariam, the housekeeper in the family who has served the Atmaja family for more than 30 years.

Since he was young, Ms. Mariam brought Mr. Atmaja to the big house like a palace.

because of her gratitude, Ms. Mariam asked Mr. Surya and his family to stay at home as long as they did not have a place to live.

"My house is not big, but we can stay there with Madam....". Persuade Ms. Mariam while stroking the back of Mama Rosi who was holding back her tears.

"I'm sorry Mom... We'll trouble mom...". Mama Rosi welcomed Ms. Mariam's invitation.

"We don't matter, big or small where we live, as long as we can take shelter together". Mama Rosi continued her words while holding the hand of Ms. Mariam.

"I don't feel bothered Madam. So I also have an obligation to protect this fellow member of the Atmaja family, madam....". Said Ms. Mariam to shed the tears she could not hold.

"Okay, ma'am, we're going to come to Mom's house...". Mom says Rosi's next.

Asya and her family follow Ms. Mariam home.

Simple house with 3 rooms in the suburbs, obtained from the results of working in the Atmaja family home.

This house was previously occupied by Mina son of Bu Mariam with Pak Warno.

Mr. Warno used to work as a driver in the Atmaja family, before he died at a young age.

After Mina married, Mina followed her husband to live in Solo, so the house was empty.

Only occasionally did Ms. Mariam visit this house, cleaning and letting go of longing on Mr. Warno and his daughter Mina.

.........

For several months Mr. Surya and his family lived in the house of Ms. Mariam the wife of the late Atmaja family driver.

After suffering heavy losses and losing his company and property, Mr. Surya fell ill.

Shortly thereafter, he died while Asya was still in class IX.

Same in the exam as it is today. Asya lost the father she loved.

The test of his life was heavier than the questions on the exam.

Asya tried to surrender, he did not know, where his life goals would go. He felt too young to think about this kind of complicated thing.

~ Flash Back Off ~

.........

This morning Asya had set foot in the school yard.

He rushed to his testing room. He entered room 23. He's looking for his desk.

At the 10-seat table he sits.

Asya took out her writing equipment after sitting herself down.

He waited a while before the test began.

Asya began to research one by one his friends. Look at anyone in her class. Asya turned to the right, there was Dino seen sitting in seat no 12.

"O.k...e...". Reply Asya with a clear lip movement, because it does not make his voice.

Asya looked to the other side, though,

Asya looked at Hans on her left. Right next to him, Antonio Hansel Wijaya sat down.

"Haiy.... Hans...". Sapa Asya seduces Hans.

Hans just turned his head, looking at Asya meaninglessly. He was displaying a flat face without his expression.

"Wahhhh... reverse mode off nih termites....". Inner Asya saw Hans to be the same person as always, in contrast to last night who was so chatty towards him.

Asya flicked her lips, feeling annoyed at Hans.

Hans smiled faintly at Asya's face.he hid immediately turned away from Asya's sight.

This is often Hans lax when seeing Asya's ridiculous behavior. Without Asya's knowledge. Hans was too jaim to be sweet in front of Asya

The exam will begin. Question and answer sheets have been shared by the space supervisor.

The students have already received their exam papers.

As soon as possible Asya read line by line the rules of the exam listed.

"who are forbidden to give an answer ..., but I do not give an answer to this test, those who ask....". Mumam Asya denied every written rule.

Asya moved her eyebrows up and down.

He began to read one by one the questions contained in the question sheet. Without waiting for a long time, Asya started to do the exam carefully.

When the first sheet is finished, he continues the next sheet.

Time's still 55 minutes. There's 35 minutes left.

Asya's answer is done.

He looked to his right side. He glanced at Dino and the comrades were already preparing to receive an answer from Asya.

Asya held up her view. Her smile hangs on her pretty face. His hands were ready to give the exam code to his friends.

They know very well, the password used by Asya, because they helped determine the number of questions and answers together every test took place.

In the long run they have often practiced cooperation. They are not inferior to the syndicate of answer sellers and test answer jockeys.

(hayooo ngaku who likes to cheat exam time....🤭)

Asya was still paying attention to the Supervisor of the room who was sitting filling the administration of the examinee's presence.

Asya was calm, he noticed the watchdog's every move. While Dino and his friends are still focused on seeing the codes given by Asya through his lentic finger.

Asya flicked her hair to the side, a sign that the task was done.

He looked towards Hans.

He saw Hans still seriously doing his test.

as usual, Hans was always relaxed in any circumstances. Except for the look on his face last night while running with Asya. It was the human face mimic according to Asya.

The ending time exam bell has already rung.

Asya and her friends collect question sheets and answers on the space supervisor.

After Asya walked out of class.

Asya sat in the school hall.

Talk to his friends before he goes home.

There was a rowdy sound from Asya's friends who corrected their exam answers. Debating right and wrong answers, one of them persisted with his argument, as if the answer was the most correct.

(Usually Author..😂, how same reader...).

Asya did not care about such activities. For him after the answer is submitted, then it is not necessary to think about it. Think of it like garbage that must be removed immediately, not remembered....

(From pusiiiiiing.... 🥴).
