Chapter 37 Adel Best Graduates

It's been a week since Zaki's home. Zaki has no news at all. I even tried several times that the phone could not be reached. I'm getting nervous and my mind's out of whack.

Hanan and I worked at a cake & bakery shop 20 minutes away on foot. Because we don't have a vehicle and have to save money than on the bus.

My workplace is not far from the market where you work. I became the cashier and Hanan the production team. Our salary is not much but enough for everyday and a little saving. Moreover, every home is always equipped with cake by our boss.

The owner of the shop is very kind and friendly, Ms. Dania is still her name is Princess. A widow like my mother.

The shop I work in is not very big. There are only 4 cashiers with 2 sif duty to serve customers. The first sif entered at 7 am until 2 pm. While the second sif at 2 pm until 10 pm. And the male there are 4 people but his duties behind as a production team include Hanan.

My cashier friend is fine too. There is Yumna 21 years old already a year working here, then 23 years old Nesti has 5 years working here or since this store opened. While the 19-year-old Gita just graduated from school and entered work 3 months ago.

"Where Del do you feel at home here?" Ask Ms. Dania.

"A home dong Bu, surrounded by good people like this where maybe I don't feel at home." Answer me with a smile.

"Alhamdulillah then I want to go first. Yumna who got along with Adelia you guys just met this sif right?" Ask Ms. Dania to Yumna.

"Iya Bu Ka Adel is friendly, Yumna likes it." Sahut Yumna Hugging my waist.

"I go first yes assalamu'alaikum."

"Wa'alaikumsalam."

My days just passed along with a new environment.

It was the day of the school graduation announcement, I happened to be in sif noon and Hanan was off so we went to school to find out the results of the announcement.

Until school I didn't find Zaki there. Even I looked for Sinta and asked Devi and Rossi but they said they did not know where Sinta was.

My heart began to worry, I thought that they had gone to Singapore as Sinta said at the time. Even Zaki hasn't explained it to me. But why didn't Zaki give me any news at all.

"Where is Zaki?" Ask Hanan.

I just shook my head.

"Keep I can help you with what?"

"Come Nan. Let's see the notice board first. It should be 9 o'clock, right?"

"Okey."

We walked to the notice board.

There was a lot of happy laughter there. It means they graduated. And how surprised I was to see my name in the first place with perfect value. Of the 65 students in the 3rd grade of TARUNA BANGSA High School, Adelia Putri Winata was ranked first and received a full scholarship at the University of Indonesia. Then Zaki was placed third. Hanan was ranked 11th.

"Congratulations Del." Hanan said with a shake of my hand.

"Geez Hanan I'm so happy." The reflection of my happiness was not to accept Hanan's hand but to embrace her.

I hugged Hanan's body for a long time because I still could not believe this announcement. But there were some schoolmates who congratulated me and finally awakened me and released my arms from Hanan.

"Sorry Nan I'm too happy." I apologize with the embarrassment mixed in without looking at Hanan.

"Gue is also happy to see you like this." Answer Hanan.

"Congratulations Del."

"Good Adelia."

"Congratulations."

"Success is always Del."

"Loe is great Del."

Many hands shook me and I accepted.

"God thank you. Please do not take this perfect happiness. Dad must be very happy too, right to see Adel succeed like this? I'd better talk to Mom at home about my plans for the future." I stared at the clear blue sky with white clouds that were running very slowly. There was a bit of confusion over what I got because I had to leave Mom.

"Adel Loe called the principal in his room." Said one of the people I didn't know his name.

"Nan I went to the department first huh. You wait for me below."

"Okey."

At the headmaster's house.

tok tok

"Good Sir."

"Congratulations on the achievements you have received."

"Thank you so much Sir all this is also for the services of Mr. Mother teacher."

"So this is a requirement that you must submit for your scholarship application at UI." The principal gave me a flyer.

"Later I will read at home sir, I have to talk first with my Mom because I have to leave my own mother later."

"Oh of course. After you think you can go back to my room yes every working hour."

"Well sir excuse me first then. Assalamu'alaikum." I kissed the back of the Principal's hand and left his room.

I went down the stairs with the thought of going somewhere. I'm still confused.

Hanan waved his hand from a distance when he saw that I had already descended the stairs. But at this moment why Hanan's face was different. I don't know what the difference is but I kept walking by looking at Hanan.

"Gue know I'm handsome but loe don't look at me keep me so salting it around beautiful girls."

"Start right!"

"Hahaha let's go to the ntar loe stop late again in his work. Eh btw how in the kepsek room is there something wrong if you don't seem as happy as before anyway?"

"With nothing wrong Nan, I was given as a condition for my scholarship application. That's doang."

"Keep why do you have that face?"

"I confused Nan."

"What full scholarship do you think makes you confused?"

"I have to leave Mother Nan because Mother is already at home this cook should I stay."

"Gue think Ibu loe will be cool and definitely tell you to continue."

"We're back first."

The bus came and we went in and sat next to each other.

No talks during our trip.

Arriving at the decet stop of the house and about to get off the bus suddenly I feel dizzy with even almost falling. Hanan quickly grabbed my body and led me home.

We sat on the living room couch.

"Why do you suddenly get dizzy? Loe's sick?"

"Don't know Nan since this morning I don't really feel good riding the Bus, it just stinks continue to be nauseous. But I can still hold it."

"Loe mabok kali? Are you not having breakfast? Usually not?"

"Today I'm not too****t eat Nan."

"In the kitchen is there food? I take it."

"Don't know if you'll see."

Hanan walked into the kitchen. Then return with a plate of rice with vegetable soup and a glass of water.

"Nih loe eat first fear loe more sick."

"Thanks to Nan."

I ate little by little the rice and fried chicken. But how much I forced food into my mouth was just the nausea I got. Finally I eat without chewing because once in the mouth I immediately drink so that my food reaches the stomach.

"Where is it good? But just a little bit of eating loe." Hanan is still worried about me. His eyes signified deep worry.

"Udah ah Nan I'm really not strong. I'm gonna take a little nap you can go home."

"I'm going to be here. You sleep there I sit here. If you want to work I wake up later I anterin."

I just agree with Hanan's words.
