Alena has been teaching at this school for a month. Two months ago, Alena just returned to the country after four years of studying in the country people took her Master and Doctorate. At the age of 28, Alena has earned her doctorate and became the youngest S3 graduate on the campus where she teaches.
Not even a month of teaching, Alena has been given the mandate of some students who are compiling thesis. Student guidance overflows from supervisors who are on maternity leave.
Currently, Alena was dealing with one of her tutoring students. Students who often annoyed him half to death.
"I told you last week that today you have to deposit the results of your thesis revision. If you work slow like this how can you graduate on time? I don't like lazy students like you" Alena said firmly.
"I'm sorry, Mom. Last week there was a problem in my family. I had to look after my niece because their mother was waiting for her comatose husband in the hospital."
"I don't know if what you're saying is true or just an excuse."
"If you believe, thank God, but if you don't believe the reasons I give, I can't do anything anymore. If you can't tolerate me, I might as well cancel my current title and choose to start over. I will not choose Mom as my mentor. If you don't like lazy students like me, I also don't like lecturers who accuse without evidence like Mom." said student Atep gave an excuse.
"What do you mean?" Alena snaps at her guidance student.
"Mommy accuses me of being a lazy student. That's an accusation that can't be proven. Please ask other lecturers or other students about myself whom you accuse of being a lazy student."
"You're a very insolent student. Maybe I was wrong to call you a lazy student. But I wouldn't be wrong to call you a student with bad manners. You dare say rudely to me as your tutoring." Alena's emotions burst out hearing Atep's words.
"Which words are harsh. Ma? My mother accused me again. This mother is her hobby of accusing people haphazardly huh?" atep's rebuttal did not accept Alena's accusation.
"Mother here is new, not yet a month but seems to have known me so easily accuse me of being lazy."
"I don't want to argue with you anymore. Now it's up to you how he wants. If you really want to change your supervisor, just go to the department. Please get out of my room! There are still other students who will be mentoring me. I've wasted my precious time serving you. Please come out now!" expel Alena.
"Good, Mom. Excuse me" said Atep.
