"Candi, how do you know about the teachings of leadership?" ask Mr. Candra


"From my sister, heheeh" I said


I introduced my brother's short profile. He is my inspiration to keep my spirit up and become an inspiring young man.

Today is the enrollment of the Osis chairperson candidate at my school. Each major in your class is required to send candidates. I happen to be in Accounting.


"Can, what if you are the one who advanced to represent the Accounting department to be the Osis chairman candidate?" ask Rio


Rio is one of the 4 boys in my major. Ria is also my junior high school friend but different classes. She's in class B and I'm in class C.


"Yes, I agree. Win does not win which certainly represents alone." said Rini


Rini is my old friend. He used to be in a class with Rio.


"We should consult, to represent our class. His name is fair" I said


"Again, let's vote. Who are the candidates, Candika and Rio yes" said Ambar.


"I'm not at all?" rio protests


"This one will be fair" I said


We then deliberated to determine who would be the representative of our class. Rini then began by writing our names. Then, classmates were asked to advance one by one. They had to choose 2 between the two of us.


The class boisterousness immediately occurred when, I won 2 votes over Rio.


"Yeeey, the temple that represents us" Rio said clapping


"Come on Can, spirit. You don't have to be the chairman of Osis, really" said Ambar encouragingly


"Yes, but I helped create a work program for the introduction of candidates" I said


We then set up a joint work program. Rini and Deni helped write various work programs. Others helped create posters for his campaign. Hahahah, it's kek mo any election.

(at home)


I went home from school straight home. My brother is ready at the door. Mama also looks to have come home from the traveling sales.


"Tumben on the gathering, what's up?" ask me curious


"Hi my dear brother, please change clothes, wash your face, and then have lunch. Brother has cooked your favorite meal" said Kak Krishna with a sweet smile.


I suspect this day. Feels strange, unlike usual brother and mother are at home during the day2 days. But I immediately brushed it off. The point is I'm happy, because when I get home from school, my mom and sister are home. Usually my sister is busy in college, my mom is still selling.


I immediately changed my clothes. Then go straight to the dining table. Brother is right, cook food to my tribe. Sister cook vegetables with a lot of melinjo skin vegetables. He also fries salted fish and sambles terasi.. Hmmm.kehappiness.


"Let's eat, let's eat" said the spirit brother


I took rice and of course with asem vegetables. We enjoyed lunch with joy. My sister's cuisine is champion, it's delicious.


"When do we open the restaurant, yuk kak" asked me


"Ntar if you already have a large capital, yes" said Kak Krishna.


"Mama can only pray for the success of the two of you" said Mama while holding glass.


We finished lunch soon. I'm Balinese, surely Kak Krishna will convey something important. I know how big brother. So I memorized brother's personality. After I finished eating, I cleaned the dirty dishes and washed them immediately.


Then he took us all to the middle room. I'm more worried, what news will my brother tell us.


"What's Na?" ask mama


"Yes, why Brother. If the cake gini, there must be someone to say." I said guess.


"What's this envelope, Na?" ask mama


"Open up, Can" sister ordered


The envelope was immediately handed to me. I opened the brown envelope. Inside there are 3 pieces of paper. I immediately took out those 3 pieces of paper.


The first sheet there is a logo that I'm very foreign to. But underneath it is the inscription "Stanford University". I read slowly. The book uses American English. My eyes were then fixed on the inscription "Congratulation mr. Krsna".


"This brother?" much


"Silver passed the Student exchange selection to Stanford University, Ma, Dik" said the brother excitedly.


"Student exchange to America, brother?" many make sure


The sister then told me that a month ago she was in the selection. Astungkare he escaped and will travel to America for 3 months. Of course it was very encouraging but also very sad. We are happy and proud, because you can qualify for America. But sad, because we're going to part ways. Mama just cried and then hugged Kak Na.


I stood still like a statue. My tears melted profusely when I saw the scene of my mother hugging my sister. I see a happy hue on my sister's face. If you do not give permission, you will be disappointed.


"Congratulations, big brother." I said


Stanford University is the second best university after Harvard University. I have long dreamed of studying abroad for higher education. His goal is to become a diplomat.


"Na, but America is far away. It must be expensive" said Mama


"Mama take it easy, it's free. Even Krishna would get pocket money from America. Trus UGM also provides facilities. Mama take it easy. Krishna will, allow Krishna to leave, only 4 months, Ma" said Kak Krishna pleaded


Mama is still on the brakes. I was also curious about my mother's answer. Whether it is allowed or not.


"How much do you want to go to America, Kris?" ask mama


"From time I wanted to travel the world, Ma. This is an opportunity Krishna must take." said the elder brother enthusiastically.


Mom looked at me. I know the meaning of that glance.


"No papa, Ma. Only 3 months, hehehe." I said


Finally with my seduction and brother. Mama also collapsed, but on condition.


"What's the signal, Ma?" ask brother


"You have to be the best" said Mama.


My sister hugged my mom again. He was very happy, because this was a long trip big brother. Separate from my parents and me. He will live in America alone.


"Krishna promise, Ma. I'll do my best" said the brother


"Sister, take it home by - by yes." I said


"Surely, you will bring clothes, bags, shoes, make up, perfume for you" said the sister


"Keychains, too, for my friends and teachers" I said


"Jiiaaah, basic.. Yes later on brother buy cheap - cheap, hehehe." ledek brother.


"When did you leave, Na?" ask mama


"A week's left, Ma" said the older brother


After that, we went back to doing our own activities. I went back to my room. I then hugged the picture frame that was me, brother, and mother. Sad actually, will part with brother. But this is all for the good and career of my brother. I must be willing to let him go.


Honestly, I was afraid of losing the figure of the man who was near me. I'm afraid brother why - why. But that thought soon I was tepis.
