The Winter Promise

Chapter 117: I Know That I Am Not Special.

My short holiday has ended and the second semester has begun. After finishing his case Akbar and celebrating the new year at Miyuki's house. I didn't do anything special. I was just at home and living my life playing games. Sometimes I go to the office to hold meetings with Mr. Hari and others.

I'm back jostling with people who want to go to work on the bus.

This morning, the weather wasn't as bright as the morning before. Maybe because now it has entered the rainy season so the weather is often cloudy. My mother also always reminded me to bring an umbrella so that when it rains I do not speak.

When I got to school and performed the flag ceremony. I saw that the field was not filled with students as usual.

I just remembered that in the second semester, all second graders had to undergo what was called Field Work Practice for one semester.

I ended up having a very long and exhausting ceremony.

Since this was the first day of entry, there were many welcome given by the principal to us.

After the flag ceremony, when I got to class. I immediately cross paths with Akbar who wants to go out of class.

“Where to Bar?”

Ask him.

“I'm going to the cafeteria to buy something, I haven't had breakfast this morning from home.”

“Oh so."

I also gave way to Akbar.

“Oh yes Mar, I am so grateful to you for what you did yesterday Mar.”

Akbar thanked me again.

Every time he met me, he was always grateful. I told him to stop doing that when I was in front of people.

“What can I give to repay your kindness Mar?”

“Then you just need to stop thanking me continuously. I've been a little distracted about it for a long time.”

“Oh so.”

Mumpung was meeting him here, it's good I just said that to him.

“There's something I want to talk to you about Bar.”

“What is Mar?”

“About work problems in my office.”

“How's Mar?!”

Akbar immediately became excited after hearing that the topic of conversation was that.

“I talked about this yesterday to my boss, and now there's a blank spot on social media.”

Yesterday on vacation, I talked about this to Mr. Hari and Mr. Malik. They said that I could include more people at this time because there were some empty places for the interns.

“What will I do in that section Mar?”

“For that you can ask Riki later, because he is in the same part as you.”

“Thank you Mar!”

Akbar thanked me again, but thank you this one is not too much for me because the topic we talked about this time is different.

“Sama-sama.”

“Then when can I start working?”

“Today if you can come with me to the office to take care of his employment contract.”

Hearing that made Akbar think something.

“What's the problem?”

“No, but I seem to want to go to my old workplace first to thank the people there, because they already gave me a job. You go there first Mar. I'll catch up with you.

“Then I will wait for you in the office.”

I also gave my office address to Akbar through a message.

“How is your father?”

Ask him.

“I haven't seen him at all in jail.”

Akbar's face looks ordinary when talking about his father. I think he's still angry about what his father did.

“Do you still hate your father?”

“That's.”

“I can't deny that. Maybe if I experienced the same incident as you, I would be angry too.”

Perhaps my anger will be greater than Akbar's. But I'm not the one who brings out my anger, I'm the kind of person who holds it for myself.

“Oh yes Mar, can you come to my house this weekend?”

Akbar invited me to his house.

“For what?”

“My uncle and aunt would like to thank you for what you did yesterday.”

Again that thing.

“You should have told them I didn't need that.”

“I've said it, but they keep it clean hard. He said it would be impolite if they did not repay the kindness of Amar and the others. Do you want to come Mar?”

“Alright, I'll be coming later this weekend with Riki and Maul.”

“The plan is I will also say this to Riki and Maul later.”

Teng.. Teng... Teng... Teng.....

“Ah shit! The bell has rung. Already yes Mar, I want to go to the cafeteria first.”

Akbar quickly ran to the cafeteria.

I went to class and sat in my chair. Riki who is already there is busy writing absent books because in the new semester the absence book was new and the class president had to rewrite the names of students in his class.

Mr. Febri entered the classroom.

After putting his bag on the teacher's desk, he immediately wrote something on the blackboard.

Free Classes.

That's what Mr. Febri wrote on the board.

All the students were surprised by that because there were rarely teachers who gave free classes at the beginning of the semester like this, but most of them were very happy about it.

“You are all quiet in class yes, I have a little affair with Amar and also Riki.”

I was sure that he wanted to talk about yesterday's matter to both of us. Why not just use another time.

Riki and I together with Mr. Febri went to the meeting room in the gym to talk there. Usually this meeting room is used by the homeroom if there are parents of students who come to school because of something.

“Why should we talk here Sir?”

Ask him.

“If here, we can talk quietly without being disturbed by others.”

“Surely you want to talk about Akbar's problem that you left to us right?”

“I'm so happy when I talk to you Mar. I don't have to bother explaining my intentions to you.”

Mr. Febri smiled very widely in front of me.

I also told Mr. Febri about what happened yesterday. Starting from us who visited Akbar's house, until we helped the police in thwarting the kidnapping.

There is not a single bit of information that I subtract or add. I want Mr. Febri to hear everything according to what is happening on the pitch.

“What did Amar say happened to Rik?”

Mr. Febri who still did not believe my story immediately confirmed it to Riki who was sitting next to me.

“That's all right sir, it's like that happening in the field.”

“What was the news last month that the police foiled the kidnapping of a father and his son?”

It turned out that Mr. Febri also heard about the news.

“But why on the news was it not announced that you two have completed all that?”

If only it were said in the news. It must be that when I got into school, I was already summoned by the principal to explain to him what happened exactly.

And also my parents will definitely scold me all out because I did something dangerous, and there are still a lot of troublesome things that will happen if my name is in the news.

“I have an insider in the police who can manipulate that data.”

“I didn't know that the task I gave you could be dangerous like this.”

Mr. Febri felt sorry.

“It was very dangerous once Sir.

“I apologize to you for telling you to do something dangerous.”

“Calm down sir, because you told me to do this, I got a hint of this bustling kidnapping.”

And now I just have to wait for the results of the investigation from Maul. I think he has some very important and interesting new information to talk about later.

“Do you intend to solve this case Mar?”

“Cannot.”

Hearing that made Mr. Febri smile.

“So what do you two want? I'll grant all your requests if I can still do it.”

I think he's overdone if he said he wanted to grant all my requests. He is collecting money for his wedding.

“I leave this to you Rik.”

Riki immediately thought about the request.

“I think you better buy food for all the class kids so they don't get confused with what we're doing.”

Tumben once Riki can think like that.

“Is that no problem for you?”

“No problem.”

“Then what do you want to buy to your classmates?”

Riki thought about it again.

Yes food...

Hmmmm... It's cold like this I think something is fruiting. But it is impossible to order meatballs because in class there is no bowl to put the meatballs. I think chicken noodles are the best choice for now.

“How about chicken noodles only?”

It turned out that what Riki was thinking was almost the same as what I was thinking.

“That's great, chicken noodle prices are not too expensive if you have to buy it for all students in class.”

“You should have asked for something more expensive Rik.”

Saying to him.

“I pity Mr. Febri because he this year is getting married.”

“I'm glad you understand my situation Rik.”

Mr. Febri was slightly moved to hear that.

“So when is your wedding sir?”

“Fin-june later.”

“Hopefully smooth till day H.”

“Aamiinn..”.

Then I along with Mr. Febri and Riki went for a while to buy chicken noodles. At that time we were very troubled because we had to find a chicken noodle maker who was open in the morning.

But finally we also found a chicken noodle maker who had opened, more precisely he had just opened his shop.

When we got to class, all the class children looked curious and happy to see the two of us who brought food.

“What is it?”

Ask some of my friends about the food I brought.

“It's food.”

My answer to them.

“I know it's food, I asked what is this event until you buy food?”

You're asking less clearly then.

“Pak Febri is being kind, which is why he bought us food.”

They were all happy and grateful to Mr. Febri.

I distributed the food to all my friends in the class. The students who had already gotten their food, immediately ate it without further ado.

“What's the problem we eat in during lesson hours like this?”

Kichida was a little hesitant to eat the food.

“No problem, most teachers today also give free classes to their students.”

“What is it not prohibited by the school?”

“That's the recommendation from the school.”

I do not understand anymore with the mind of the principal of SMK Sawah Besar. Since when a free class is a recommendation given by the principal, free classes are usually only given by good teachers.

“The head of the school said that the first day of school is important to build the mood of students who vacation for two weeks so that they get used to the atmosphere of school. So usually we only give free classes or small games only.”

Mr. Febri explained it to all of us.

“The head of the school here is always making policies that mostly spoil his students.”

My speech. But honestly I'm happy with the policies he's making.

While we were eating, a teacher came into my class.

“Wih eat-nih! What other events?”

The teacher immediately walked over to Mr. Febri who was eating chicken noodles at the teacher's desk.

“I only treat my class kids, yesterday they won a basketball game.”

Mr. Febri said to the teacher.

“I thought this was to celebrate your engagement.”

All the students were surprised after hearing that, because only Riki and Amar only knew that Mr. Febri would soon be married. But as for the matter of getting engaged, I myself did not know that she was engaged.

He is very good at hiding a secret to his students. After this, what secrets will he hide.

The atmosphere of the class became crowded because many students congratulated Mr. Febri and asked when the wedding was held.

I saw the overwhelmed Mr. Febri answer one question at a time from his students. Because every time there was a question that he managed to answer, there must be a new question immediately waiting for him.

That's how I feel if Miyuki's asking me. Before I answer the question he asked and satisfy his curiosity, I will be constantly inundated with questions that even overwhelm me once in a while.

All students in the class also prayed for the smooth running of the event Mr. Febri and Mr. Febri thanked his students.

I think this is quite surprising news, has Mr Hari known this or not?

He should have known it because Mr. Hari was one of Mr. Febri's closest friends.

“Why do you have to tell this?”

Mr. Febri rebuked the teacher.

“Good things should be delivered, especially to his own protege.”

While listening to that conversation, I somehow seemed to be looking at my conversation with Riki.

The questions asked and the answers given are very similar to the events I always miss with Riki.

As I thought, I'm not special. There are many people out there who look like me, for example, Mr. Febri at this time. At least I have another answer if Miyuki and the others are praising me later.
