When Kalbu Tells a Story

3. Silence for the sake of Peace

...When they began to berate me, when they began to laugh at me, I was silent for the sake of peace. ...

.... ...

...🥀...

I wear school clothes that are no longer white, uniforms that bear witness to my journey, which became the ingredients of the teasing of friends at school.

"Hallo, girl kumel!" said Resa and his friends.

I just gave my sweetest smile to them, and I always said, "Ah, insults have become my daily food."

That word often comes from my mouth, I think if I serve them, it means I'm just like them dong, I don't want that. Other than when they tried to ridicule me, there was my best friend who always stood up for me, "Laela" She was my best friend since I was in Junior High School. Thank God, God found us again in the High School, how good God is.

"Dela!"

"Kalbu, since when did you come?"

"Since this morning, "

"Why did I just see you?"

"Biasalah, I have to get a free breakfast first. "

"Ah, could it be you! It must have been breakfast, a curse given by Resa and his friends. "

"Hehe... Yes, that's right!"

Actually there is still another friend of mine, namely "Mariam" Good hooded girl, we were met by God while in High School.

"Kal, Maryam's tumben has not come yet."

Just in question, Maryam arrived at class.

"That, Maryam!"

"Assynogaic"

"Wa'alaikumsalam, live our lives long! Just asked, uh-h-have been nongol. "

"Hehe.. You guys miss me too!"

"Not really, just ordinary! Why I miss seeing you in school so often. "

"Kalbu, the answer made my heart disappointed to know, "

"Oh, I'm sorry! I was just kidding, but a little serious. "

"Oh, your old habits are coming back. "

Haha.....

Both of my friends already know me very well what kind of person, I sometimes difficult to guess the person. I also have a fragile feeling, they said I was too soft.

...🥀...

The first subjects in the beginning, math subjects are quite difficult if not learned, quite easy if we learn them. All without us learning will look difficult, just one is life, life is not to be learned but to be faced.

Ms. Ratna was a good math teacher, every time she explained the material, it was easy for me to understand. Honestly, I am not very shrewd in this one subject, maybe among my two mathematical friends is Maryam the girl who rules the formula. Anyway he was a real pinter, he always competed with Dafa who was a formula expert as well.

Dafa is a handsome man who dreams of girls, his skin is white, his eyes are shining, his eyebrows are black, his body is tall and his smile is sweet. Ah, said the children he was the most perfect man who had been born to this earth.

As I said, "Perfection belongs only to God, no man has perfection but a lack. God created us to perfect each other. " Oh, I'm so wise. But that's what my mother taught me, said my mother, "Laughter, find a partner who is capable of responsibility, about possessions, thrones, good looks, all that is found. But the person who is responsible, good manners, righteous and loyal is difficult to find. "

Words that pierced my heart, words filled with truth. I felt like I wanted to find the figure of the man you said that to, but unfortunately for now I don't really think about it. For now I focus more on making my mother happy with my own efforts.

The first subjects are almost finished, the task given by Ms. Ratna has been completed well.

"Alhamdulillah, finished also. "my pride.

Teng teng teng ....

The break bell has been hit, the children are very happy to meet the time they have been waiting for. Especially for those who are lazy to meet the material, for those whose hobbies sleep when the subjects are started, after meeting the hours of rest the eyes are drowsiness back fresh.

"Horay... Hurray... Break arrived."

"Guys, let's attack the cafeteria!" shouted Komar, the koplak man who was always the target of children to be in jahili.

"Komar, are you ready?!" jojo shouted again, the man who often got angry.

Comar replied, "What's ready Jo? I don't understand, you mean!"

I just laughed when I saw them acting up, Jojo and Komar were Dafa friends, they were like glue when they got close, they were so sticky.

"Click, Komar don't embarrass me!"

"Ah, that's a feeling you're a time-since when do I embarrass you?"

"The two of you, it's just making a fuss" said Dafa.

Sometimes I feel uncomfortable with the behavior of Komar and Jojo who like to be unclear. They always do things that sometimes make others become lazy to laugh.

"Kalbu!" call Maryam slowly.

"Yes, Mary, "

"Why are you silent? And really you see the behavior of Komar with Jojo, usually you are also the laziest to see them."

"Ti's... No, I don't see anyone." I replied in a stammer.

"Then we go to the cafeteria!" take Laela, but I refuse.

"Sorry, this time I can't go to the cafeteria with you guys."

"Why Kal? C'mon go!" force Laela.

"I can't La, next time we go."

"You are always refusing my invitation."

Suddenly Resa said cynically, "Obviously, Kalbu refused your invitation! People he does not have money to eat in the cafeteria, you should understand the poverty conditions found in Kalbu. Oops, that's the slum girl. "

"Haha.. Haha... " Janet and Loli started laughing at me.

Go on Laela, "He..Viva! Arrogant girl, do not occasionally you say that to Kalbu again. "

"It's La, it's okay."

"But, I can't see you continue to be insulted by them. "

"You, I can accept their insults. Your own time cannot accept it, just let them say what? What's important is they don't say anything about my mom."

"You're so good, I should be like you too."

"Udah, you better go to the cafeteria! The food will be gone."

"No, we're here to accompany you. Oh yeah, you usually bring cassava chips to school, but why don't I see you taking them to school?"

"Yes, I'm off for a sale first. "

"Why?" ask Maryam.

"My mom forbid, my mom told me to focus on school first."

"Your mother is very nice. "
