The White Heart Jasmine

Chapter 12 - Tara's No Trip

Morning opens the curtain of a new day. The children prepared themselves for their journey. All try not to be late let alone miss the long-awaited event.

Jasmine was prepared, she tidied up the equipment she needed to carry in a backpack. Then he took his shoes, crouched down wearing them. Ranita who just finished bathing also tidied up her stuff.

"New keychain?" Ranita noticed the keychain hanging on Jasmine's backpack.

"Oo.. that's yes.." said Melati. Well, don't get me wrong.

"That's great. Unique yaa... Buy where?" Ranita held it and noticed the details.

Jasmine quickly stood up and approached Ranita. "It's a gift, really," said Melati. "Sorry, someone forgot." Melati pretended to check something in that backpack. She's afraid Ranita reads the disguised initials there.

"Gift? Your daddy?" ranita asked, now she's wearing her shoes.

"Hmmm..." Melati did not answer clearly. Fear of lying, but if you're honest, fear of new problems. "Ihh.. sorry Ranita, I was forced.." Inner Melati.

"Come, I'm ready" said Melati.

"Yukk..." Ranita is done too. They left the room and headed to the dining room for breakfast.

After breakfast, the group began to leave the hotel location and head to tourist attractions as planned. There is a tour guide that guides their journey on every bus they take. Tour guide explains various things related to Lombok. What are the specials of the places they go through. The history of the important buildings is also seen on the way.

Development is real in this area. New streets, iconic built cities, rainbow domes, sturdy mosques that complement the island's 1000 mosques are dotted here and there. Melati and her friends enjoy everything they come across.

That day they went to Narmada Park, then to Narmada Botanic Garden. A beautiful and fun place to style in front of the camera. Children today will not miss the opportunity to take pictures with beautiful and interesting spots.

"Look, the flowers are pretty-beautiful. There is a small maze as well. Ahh... that's the door to anywhere doraemon!! Hey, cute cottage look... Japanese houses are there, tree houses too." the cry of understated joy is here and there.

It was great to enjoy this togetherness. Unceasingly the sound of their laughter.

The journey continues to Sade Village. The original Sasak tribal village. They are welcomed by traditional war dances, may even try to join the wars as well. Then they went around the village that really maintained its authenticity. From the building, the way of dress, and the way of life of the people.

Guides in this village tell the culture of the community that requires girls to learn to spin. If they can't spin they don't deserve to get married. And if there is a young man who has a crush on a girl, the relationship is not approved by the family, then the young man will kidnap the girl. That way the family can't refuse to give the girl to the man.

"Sana, learn to spin first, so you can get married," said Vera to her female friends.

"You have to learn first, Ve. You're the one who's been dating." The Leon nyeleletuk. Vera chuckles.

"Well, if Danu nih wants to kidnap a greeting, so can marriage?" Again they sound joking. The more boisterous they chimed in on the joke.

Further journey to the beach. This is what they've been waiting for. Mandalika Beach, Tanjung An Beach, Merese Hill... Incredibly beautiful places. Not only satisfied with the beautiful nature, but also satisfied with taking pictures, then swimming on a sloping beach. Playing sand, sunbathing, playing chases, even just sitting in cottages on the edge while drinking directly from the fruit, enjoying and pleasing everything.

They returned to the hotel. Once you get to the hotel, you just feel tired and tired of the incredible trip that day. That was why shortly after dinner, everyone returned to their respective rooms, immediately cleaned themselves up and went to bed.

While sleeping, Melati waited for something. HP vibration sound. But there's no. Several times he lyrics, his HP was, like first sleeping from him. Finally tired, Melati fell asleep, following Ranita who had already explored dreamland.

The second day they crossed into Gili Trawangan. But first they get to the hill Pusuk, a natural forest with many apes. The apes there are already tame, common with the arrival of humans. Visitors can feed them nuts and other snacks. Funny indeed.

Gili Trawangan, kept very natural. Crossing there by speedboat. But once you get to the place, do not expect to see motorized vehicles there. The area is sterile from motor vehicle fumes. Only traditional vehicles operate, as communities do not want their areas to be contaminated with air pollution.

The children were completely satisfied to enjoy everything. Activities are there and food is served, woww. After being satisfied all day, they returned to the hotel. And at night, they shut down the whole series of activities with a bonfire.

They surround the campfire on the beach. The singing sounded boisterous and joyful. The game is also done to add a fun atmosphere.

*What are you doing, what are you doing now

I am singing now

Sing what, sing what now

Now sing a song sing a song now*

Group of girls and boys singing. Those who reply late will take a punishment card. Either joget, either poetry, either imitating figures and celebrities, the various punishments. The last night was very joyful but moving.

The closing was conducted a student name lottery that will give a memorable greeting to their generation. Three names have appeared. Deni, Marina, and Arman. Each one conveys their impressions and also messages to his friends.

"The most effective High School. The silliest, the most annoying, the most stressful, the most wanted to be done, but the least wanted to be forgotten" Arman said.

"Huhuhhhh.." the roar of friends welcomed Arman's words.

"Breakfast is inevitable. But the love between us will survive. After this, there is a new episode, a struggle for the future. If you have a challenge, don't give up. Again, don't give up, man..." Arman held back his sentence. The atmosphere was silent. Some began to rub his eyes, some looked down deeply.

"Don't give up. Call my name three times.I'll come. and I'll cry with you.. crying in front of the camera together." he continued.

The laughter exploded again. Arman is the most. The hilarious mixed atmosphere closed the last meeting. Then they shake hands, hug each other, according to the exact gender and forgive each other, strengthen each other.

Melati felt happy flowing in her heart. This class is amazing. He finished high school with memories of an incredible trip, a matchless trip.
