At The Moment
2. I'm At This Time

LIAN POV'S

"Huh?! What the fuck is that guy, I just answered already playing away. Bodo very ah, uh but I was wrong too. This is not in Germany, not in Indonesia. Why do I walk on the left, yes, I hit the same guy.", my mind still stands in the same place while watching the man go down the stairs.

"Ih anjir why I even diem here anyway, anjirrr late telattt moga not scolded!", I realized then stepped quickly up the stairs on the right to my class on the 3rd floor.

Arriving in front of the class, I did not go straight into the classroom. I dyed first in front of the door and looked at the dalem through the middle of the door made of glass.

"Alhamdulillah, there are no lecturers in front. Wuih rame also yes s2 students who are as good as me, may dapet temen deh", my mind while fixing my hair and then pushing the glass half door inside.

As I pushed into my classroom door, everyone looked back at me. Sure enough, indeed the door I use is the access door at the back of the class so anyone must look back if they want to see who came. And because I was so cute, I just smiled a little and walked into class.

I rushed to find an empty seat and my choice fell on a desk chair near the window that led to the parking lot and street of the medical school building. I can see that the average person in my class is German, maybe only a quarter abroad. Oiya, the shape of the class seating is a kind of cinema so just a shadow of the cinema whose seats are getting farther from the screen getting higher (up). For the tables, each row there are 15 seats divided by 3 and 2 lanes to walk and the class actually fit about 120 people.

When I came, maybe the number of students had reached 50 students, whereas in the first class yesterday maybe only 30 people including me. Indeed, my friend said usually in the first class many people are lazy to come, even he also did not come to the first class, he said because the first class will only start with introductions. But the truth is not, yesterday my first class was directly filled with material and maybe that's what makes today's class quite crowded. There was an addition of points also in the class yesterday.perhaps the appreciation of the lecturer anyway, but luckily I set out to make points. Hiss

After I sat down, there were several times the back door opened again. So I concluded that yahh my old friends are quite a lot and it seems like many are still my age. Because it's basically me cute, I'm lazy to look back, I just keep looking at the parking lot below to see people passing by.

My graduate program is half followed by people older than me, maybe 2-3 years above me and half as good as me. I also saw 4-5 of my friends in hijab, sitting in the front row close to the screen. I thought that while I was in Germany I wouldn't see any Muslim friends, except my fellow Indonesians who got a scholarship like my program. My daydreams momentarily collapsed because I heard the pull of the chair next to me sitting, automatically I looked to my right.

"Guten Morgen, sorry I sit here, next to you?" said the hijab-wearing woman to me as I see you. ("Hello, may I sit here next to you?")

"Morgen´s.. Yes, of course. My name is Grizellian Quenauriste Athena Maheswari, you can call me Ell. I'm from Indonesia, nice to meet you!", I said looking at her as I extended my hand. The woman returned my hand and introduced herself. ("Yes, sure. My name is Grizellian Quenauriste Athena Maheswari, you can call me Ell. I'm from Indonesia, nice to meet you!")

”Hei, Ell's. Nice to meet you too, my name is Jihan Jauharah, Jihan. I'm Turkise, can we be friends? Honestly, I don’t have friends yet, yesterday's class I could’t attend due to family matters.", replied the woman while looking at me with interest until I wanted to tease her. Yes, you know for yourself if I'm a jail haha. ("Hey, Ell. Nice to meet you too, my name is Jihan Jauharah, Jihan. I'm a native Turkish, can we be friends? To be honest, I don't have any friends yet, because in class yesterday I couldn't attend because of a family event.")

"Sorry, I can't. I don't need friends, thanks!", I said quickly and tightly while still paying attention to the look of his face which immediately looked surprised and sad. ("Sorry, I can't. I don't need a friend, thank you!")

"Hahahaha.", my laughter giggled at the look on his face, while shutting my mouth because I was still keeping my manners afraid to bully others in my class.

Jihan who realized that I was just working on it then looked at me in annoyance. Jihan immediately hit my arm to return her regret from my joke on her. It made me laugh even more.

"Damn! You make me shock and surprised at the same time, Ell!", he lamented. ("Damn! You make me shocked and disappointed at the same time!")

"Hahaha, I'm so sorry Jihan. That's so funny" I replied again. ("Hahaha, I'm sorry Jihan. That's so exciting,")

"Hm, yeah. okay, so I know that this one friend of mine likes to joke. Haha, oh and this is my number" he said laughing as he gave his HP to me. ("Hm, yes.okay, so I know my friend likes to joke around")

"Ah, I forgot, my phone fell early and cracked before. So you just keep my number, I'm afraid that if I use it.it will only increase the damage", I said sighing and returning Jihan's HP and mentioning my HP number. ("Ah, I forgot. My HP fell and cracked. So you're the one who kept my number, I'm afraid that if I use it, it'll make the damage worse")

"Why your phone can fall, Ell?", he asked wanting to know me. I also told you about the incident where I fell. And you know what kind of reaction Jihan had? Jihan, she laughed and made fun of me stupidly, she laughed at my carelessness.

Oh, basic, I think I chose the wrong friend. I rolled my eyeballs as he laughed at how I had fallen. After being content to laugh at my stupidity, we just talked about exchanging our backgrounds together. The first time I saw him I knew he was a frequency with me, server down haha.

Instantly our conversation stopped and Jihan turned her head when she heard the sound of the door being opened from the front door of the classroom that was behind her. I also reflexively looked forward and saw a tall man firmly in front of the door behind me to close the door again. Ah, the lecturer thinks I am.

The man then entered and walked towards the lecturer's podium, while I. After seeing the man close the door I immediately went back to talking with Jihan. When I saw again the man had reached the podium - bowing put down some kind of thick draft and tuning the microphone.

I also saw the lecturer preparing, finally also preparing. I took out my bitten fruit tablet from inside a bag complete with miniboard and pencil. As I struggled to prepare my equipment, there was the sound of my lecturer starting his class and introducing himself followed by other students following the absence. I did not pay attention to the lecturer, I focused on fiddling with my tablet, connecting my campus wi-fi then finally looked at my friend who introduced myself and I wrote his name on my tablet.

The focus of my gaze led to every one of my friends introducing themselves in his seat while standing up. I also noted the names of those I found funny and could be familiar with, and which ones I didn't. Not to forget I also wrote a little short description when I saw them, like the character picture when I first saw them. Well, that's me now.must be more observant when judging someone.

When my name was called I was still struggling to write a brief description of the person before me. Because I was still unconscious after 2x the call, Jihan immediately nudged my arm because she saw me who was still focused on writing on my tablet. Yeah, I know that I'll be called earlier than Jihan because the name is written alphabetically. But I didn't know my name would be called so soon.

I also looked towards Jihan then when I understood her point, I immediately stood up from my seat and looked forward wanting to pay my respects to my lecturer. But I was surprised to see who my lecturer was and looked at him deeply until I was glued to it. If you think I'm fixated because my lecturer is too handsome then you're wrong.

What made me fixated on seeing my lecturer was because of that lecturer. Yes that's him. His person.
