Football System: Classic Number 10
Episode 11: Life in School

After a long introductory event due to the work of the most handsome man in our class, Derry, we finally started the first lesson. But what will be taught on the first day of school? There aren't. And because there was nothing that could be taught we were finally taken around the school environment aka introduced the school environment.

SMA 1 Mining is a school that has a 3-storey building. On the first floor there is a building for the 10th grade, then the office of the teacher and principal and cafeteria aka canteen are also in this building. I checked the price of the food sold here, and found a surprising fact. The cheapest food is Steak Burger which has a price of 15,000 rupiah, yes you are not wrong it is really 15,000 rupiah.

For some students, it may be a normal price or still affordable, but for me who only have an allowance of 10,000 rupiah a day, it is the most luxurious food.

For the drink looks like a drink that is often found in shops or stalls in general, such as sweet iced tea, coffee, mineral water or fruit juice. But there are also some high-end menus such as frappe, frappuccino, or gelato.

I could only smile at all the amazing menus and prices, and check into my pocket of 10,000 grand. 

"Why does Rizaldi, why does your face look so bad?" Salma Vinola surprised me, I did not realize that she was near me, maybe I was too focused on the misfortune that I experienced.

"No, I'm just a little surprised haha" I hurriedly covered my worries.

Oh yeah I forgot, on this first floor there is also a school library. Maybe next time I'll stop by here again and start my school life just like before.

We then went to the second floor. On this second floor where the upperclassmen aka class 11 learn. Just like before, in class 11 there are also 6 levels divided from A-F. Then in this place there is also an economics lab room, a biology lab room, a language and literature lab, and also several club activity rooms such as photography clubs, mading clubs, history clubs and others. I'm a little interested in club activities, but not just for now. I had to make sure I was admitted to Cananga Mining first before attending the club activities, just in case I was not accepted and had to live my gloomy school life.

Moving to the third floor, here the 12th grade aka the 3rd grade of High School studied. The 12th grade did not take up much of the club's activities anymore as it had to focus on the exams that awaited them ahead. On this floor there are also several club rooms and we can go to the roof of the school from this place, but it is prohibited or you can get a fine from the school if caught gathering on the roof.

After walking around the school building, we went to the school grounds. This is where we all have our ceremonies every Monday. There is also a field for sports. Outdoor courts for basketball, volleyball and futsal are also here, because SMA 1 Mining is a little famous for their basketball club which has won the inter-school basketball competition twice. I'll tell you next time about basketball.

There is also a beautiful garden at the school. The gardeners work hard every day to take care of this park to look beautiful, they are also sometimes helped by members of the park guard club who volunteer to help them. Fortunately, this is still processed teaching and learning hours, otherwise I might have been able to see there will be two lovebirds who are cool to enjoy the beauty of their time together.

After being content to walk around the school and become aware of the school environment, we returned to the classroom again. The mother teacher who became our supervisor earlier turned out to be our homeroom teacher for the next 2 semesters, her name is Ibu Imut.

Ibu Imut wrote down a schedule of lessons that we will receive and it turns out that after this we will start studying at this school. But before that, Imut's mother allowed us to rest first even though the bell still did not sound.

This is used by classmates to go to the cafeteria first, because if it is too late they will wait long enough to get the desired food.

Me alone? You forget that I only have pocket money for snacks that are only 10,000 rupiah. The number is still quite large indeed, but still small if in a situation like now. I don't go to the cafeteria and prefer to stay in class.

Derry walked up to my desk. "Hi buddy!" said reprimanding me. "Let's go to the cafeteria" 

"Not yet" I replied with a slight smile.

Looks like Derry knew what my problem was so he offered me to come with him instead. "Let me buy, you just choose whatever you like my friend"

I was happy with the offer, even touched. Derry is really a good friend, even he does not hesitate to spend money for friends. But I am not a shameless person, I rejected it subtly while taking out the stock box I brought from home. 

"Eeehh, you bring your provisions! Why didn't you tell me before" Derry was so surprised that I brought supplies from home, even though I had told him this before, more precisely last night. "Well, if that's the case, I'll stay in class as well" but just now she said that, the girls in the class are already swarming Derry like a vegetable boy brother in the compound where I live. Derry had to go outside the classroom to avoid the situation.

"Oh you bring Rizaldi's stock" Salma came back suddenly near me and it made my heart so unwell, I hope next time he reduced this unintentional fad.

"I'm sorry to surprise you, I'm just a little interested in your supplies. Looks like it was made by someone special to you huh"

"Yes" I replied. "It's my sister's making so you could say it's a special person as well" 

"Your sister is Rizaldi?" 

"Where do you know that?" 

Salma kept quiet, I was more and more confused as to where she could tell that I had a little sister. Then I tried to look at my provisions, it turns out there is something strange from it. I did not see it before, but after being clearly noticed the nuggets were arranged very neatly by Keisha to form a large enough heart, the heart I mean is like a form of love aka amor.

I became a little embarrassed because of this, especially after my lyrics turned out Salma covered some of her mouth. I'm sure he's laughing at my lunch today.

"You also bring supplies, I also want to see the contents of your lunch box!" I said half annoyed because Salma had done it.

Still giggling, he opened his box. And a bright golden glare of light seemed to appear when Salma opened the box. It was so fancy and so much, and some of it was food that I had never tried and could only see in the commercials on television.

Various kinds of stuffing. From tempura, nugget, siomay, various dimsum, large sausages that are cut into squid, there is even a dessert that is tiramisu cake.

I couldn't comment anymore, I was speechless a thousand languages looking at that glaring comparison. Finally I focused on my food and started eating with annoyance, especially after seeing Salma laughing again.

"Hey Rizaldi" 

"What's? Do you want to laugh at me again Salma?"

"Laughs? Sure didn't! I'm saying you can ask me for this, I can die of satiety if I eat this myself"

"Huh?" Of course I was surprised, whatever this nature is, it really crossed the limit of reason that I have. I looked at her face that looked like an angel of heaven, she was really sincere in saying that sentence until I finally concluded that the woman sitting next to me was an angel who came down from heaven.

"Can I have your provisions?" I again sought Salma's approval.

"of course! If you don't believe me, I'll also ask for nuggets from your special person"

Finally, after going through various doubts, I took Salma's tempura and he took the nuggets I had. The tempura taste is very delicious, whether it is processed by itself or not but the taste is indeed very steady. I unconsciously took it for the second time, but Salma did not mind and instead let me spend the provisions for him.

He did the same thing and praised my sister's delicious cooking, because I taught her how to cook. And in the end we ate each other's provisions without caring there were some people who looked at us with a look of disbelief, like just seeing an event that can only happen in a fairy tale, call it Beauty and the Beast.
