Trapped in 2001

Study Tour

That day, all first-graders were on buses rented by the school. In the next few days, they will hold a study tour to several cities.

Mario, Brian and Cavin certainly can't stay. They are also first-class students. Early in the morning Deddy and cross-day parents Brian and Cavin, take their kids to school.

Mario was given money, supplies during the trip, cameras, and drugs that were considered to be able to relieve mental illness that he supposedly suffered.

Adrian sat down with Heru, Cavin sat down with Brian. While Mario sat alone, do not know who will occupy the empty seat next to him.

Far in front of the right side of her, Ratna seemed to be sitting with Galih. Ratna looked very trying to invite Galih to talk, the atmosphere between the two was so awkward.

Mario smiled faintly at this, but somehow his heart was not so good. Like something was stuck, but he himself did not understand what it was. Maybe he likes Ratna, he murmured.

"Ah."

Mario tried to shake his mind, he then threw a look at the glass. But the laughter of Ratna and Galih made him curious and turned his head.

Never before had he seen Ratna laughing after that, it seemed that the conversation between the two was beginning to thaw. Until finally,

"Decision."

Lia suddenly got into the bus they were riding on, then approached towards Galih. Ratna was surprised and instantly became awkward.

"Lia?"

"Bus me next to the empty one, you go along."

Lia stared sinisterly at Ratna, while the girl now looked down. Mario watched from behind.

Galih had no choice but to comply with her boyfriend's request. Lia and the OSIS devices were also asked to join, to coordinate their underclassmen.

"No need to be nervous."

Lia said to Ratna with the volume heard by the bus, just as Galih had come out.

Ratna just silently endured the embarrassment, even her tears spread in her eyes. He almost cried. Mario wants to move on and accompany the girl, but he is preceded by Cavin who sits behind him. Cavin does not know if Mario intends to get closer to Ratna.

Cavin sat down by Ratna's side and started a conversation with the girl. Until he was not the object of gossip from other students. Cavin invited him to discuss matters beyond that.

Seeing that Cavin had been there, Mario could only hold back and cast a glare out of the glass. He even moved to sit on the edge close to the glass.

The bus engine then I turned on. Shortly after that someone entered in a hurry and immediately sat beside Mario, Mario was surprised. And what made him even more astonished was, the boy turned out to be Michael.

"Mike?" he said he couldn't believe it.

"It's normal to react, another chair is full."

As usual Michael said in a cold tone. Mario just laughed, because he really did not expect to be able to sit with his brother. He wondered how Michael was traveling, what he would do during the trip.

He had never been with his brother in his entire life. If Michael goes on a trip, he would rather take his friend over Mario. Once they went three, but with a different journey. At that time Marcell who desperately took the two, they also chose to leave on a different plane.

Along the way, the bus sang. At first Mario, Brian, and Cavin felt strange. Because in his era, when conducting a study tour, no students interact with each other or do something together.

Most of them play mobile. Mario himself really likes to make vlogs, using a mobile camera. Some of them do live Instagram.

Many are also racing to take out their expensive cameras, to record along the road they go. Not many are conversing, all busy with their respective gadgets. But in this time, all togetherness is so felt, they sing out.

Mario, Brian, and Cavin who actually did not memorize even know what song his friends sang, finally joined in singing. The three of them even looked so happy with each other.

The journey has just begun, and the day is slowly twilight. They stopped at a stop to eat. That time...,

"Yes, don't worry. Mike is fine."

Michael answered the phone as it passed near Mario, who had just finished eating with his friends. Michael himself broke away at the meal, he chose to sit in a corner without anyone's company.

"Ma, with Mike, Mike is fine. You don't have to worry too much like that, ok."

At once Mario's heart was struck, how lucky Michael was to still have a mother watching him. Mario can no longer hear his mother's voice when he grows up.

Mario speechless. Brian and Cavin pulled him over, so they could get back on the bus. Because their bus is leaving soon.

While on the bus, their mother still called Michael. Mario remained silent while throwing a glare at the glass. But his ears could still hear Michael's voice, which answered all his mother's questions.

Michael then turned off the phone. He looked a little upset, because the mother was too worried about him.

Michael glanced at Mario with his cold face. Then he turned on his phone and went to sleep. Mario himself could only lean back and try to calm himself down.

When night falls, many of them fall asleep. As Mario falls asleep on Michael's shoulder, Michael realizes this. He did not show a happy face, but did not also brush Mario's head. He just kept quiet, letting the boy sleep on his shoulder.

Somehow, he also felt he did not want to disturb the rest of the child. He just picked up a book and read in the dim light of the bus. Not all lights are turned off.

The car keeps going. Mario awakens and realizes that he is clinging to Michael, who is reading.

"Eh sorry, sorry." he said later.

Michael just glanced and kept quiet, then looked back at the book. He moved his hand several times. Making Mario who actually want to sleep again, now even pay attention to his second brother.

"A really good seal?. I just fell asleep on your shoulder."

"Lo slept 3 hours ago and didn't move at all."

Mario is surprised, but he realizes one thing. If he had been asleep for that long on Michael's shoulder, why didn't Michael just move his head to lean against the glass.

"Lo, let me sleep on your shoulder for that long?"

Michael did not answer and was still focused on the book.

"In the future, you like the koq girls I see. How many times have you brought a girl home even if you broke up."

This time Michael looks upset, he closes his book and turns to Mario.

"The future again?. Is this your brother and your brother in the future?. And now you think I like the same you?. Like that guy?. Still good luck it was fitting nutmeg bed I did not puterin 180 degrees."

"Birds ghost dong me." said Mario nyengir.

Michael passed, went to the toilet bus. Mario is now laughing. He could see there was tenderness in Michael's heart, behind his annoying attitude from birth.

While in the back, Brian has been more silent and looks riled up. Because since Cavin moved to sit next to Ratna, one of the F4 personnel, Christopher suddenly sat next to him.

Brian is already cynical since the beginning of the arrival of the strange group, so feel uncomfortable and want it feels to drive out Christopher.

"Lo nenggenggol me" said Christopher threatening.

"Did you?" Brian tilted his lips.

"Who wants to be the same, you think I like the same sex" said Brian ketus.

"Lo just before we took a break, nudge me."

"Name is also unintentional, Bambang. It's a bus shock."

"His name is Christopher. Not Bambang."

"Brian, please calm down."

A teacher sitting in the back warned Brian.

"The noisy two, ma'am. Why isn't he the one who got scolded."

"You don't have to protest. I said shut up, yeah shut up."

"The drumbeat, if I say favoritism, favoritism."

This time the bus laughed, Mario turned his head and clapped Brian's head while laughing.

"There's no drum today, bro."

They laugh giggling.

"Already, already. Calm everything."

The teacher again reminded, the students began to shut up.

"From the first it turned out to have been a lot of injustice." grumbled Brian while glancing cynically at Christopher, he then went to sleep.
