The Secret of the Detective

“Hai, Nisa! good mornin. How was his sleep last night? Already comfortable sleeping in a new place?” The theme greeted Kiran as she passed by their boarding gate.

“Met morning too, Mr. Theme. Thank God I can sleep well. So quiet even.” Kiran answered the greeting Theme.

“I first, Sir.” Kiran rushed over when she saw Tema unlocking her bike in the parking lot.

“Be careful on the road, Nis!” exciting Theme.

Kiran pretended not to hear and continued walking towards the school with quick steps.

A few minutes later, the bike paddled by Tema passed Kiran who was still walking.

There was no greeting from Tema when he passed Kiran who was walking. Kiran saw many students walking like her. They all gave greetings to the Theme who was pedaling a bicycle.

“Cih, just now a pretentious close greeting me at the boarding gate. Now pretend not to know. Basic annoying teacher,” grumbling Kiran.

Kiran walked faster to get there faster because after seeing the clock on her clock, it seemed like she would be late if she did not walk fast.

“Huh, looks like tomorrow I have to go early again,” Kiran's resolve. “In addition to relaxing the path, I also do not have to cross paths with the Theme.”

“Nisa! Wait!” Kiran heard Baim's voice calling out to her.

“Hai, are you late too?” ask Kiran.

“Not too late,” replied Baim.

“It's been seven more. We're late, right?” kiran asked wonder why they were not late in.

“His Babylon is at half-eight. Even we came early,” reply Baim replied to the astonishment of Kiran.

“This is in our school only. If at another school it might be seven o'clock. Cousin school I only entered at seven,” explained Baim again.

“You've had breakfast?” ask Kiran.

“Udah.”

“I haven't had breakfast. I went to the cafeteria first yes mumpung still have time,” pamit Kiran.

“Eh, New. I'll get you breakfast.” Baim chased after Kiran who had already walked towards the school cafeteria.

On the way to the cafeteria, Kiran saw Adam sweeping the school grounds.

Diligent as well as the Adam, early in the morning already swept the page. Kiran looked at Adam with a look of pity.

“Ah but still mending anyway so a cleaner, I used to be a madman who scavenged food from the garbage can. Hiiii..” Kiran shuddered as she recalled her first mission that required her to disguise herself as a madman.

This morning there are still many stalls that have not opened in the cafeteria and not many students who stopped by the canteen. There were only a few students including himself and Baim. Kiran saw there was only a toast and curry barber. Kiran chose to order toast only.

Kiran walked towards the toast stall followed by Baim. As he was about to order some toast, the tip of his eyes saw Tema who was enjoying a cup of coffee and a warm toast not far from where he and Baim were standing.

“Duuuh, damn it I this morning. Only seven in the morning but have met the same theme twice. Double shit this is his name,” grouse Kiran in heart.
