“Halo, I'm Susan” while extending a hand.
“Gue Dana” reply.
“Gue. Your full name is Danadyaksa, a cool name. Smartest kid number two in our generation.” Susan said.
“Kok you tau?” ask Dana
“Tau dong, you are handsome.” reply Susan with a thin smile.
As promised by her parents, Dana lives with her sister in the city. By agreement, no one can know, if Dana is the sister of the current vice principal of his school.
Dana is adapting well to her new school. He had quite a number of friends, even more than half of the schoolgirls who fell in love with him. Not only because of Dana's handsome face and attractive appearance, but she is also smart to get ranked one in her class at the midterm exam yesterday. Dana is like a perfect comic character.
Unlike the city before, the Dana association is now very free. If Dana used to just hang out in a cafe or her friend's house does not exceed 10 pm, now Dana actually often spends her time in the mall or club following her friend to exceed midnight. No one scolds Dana anymore, if she comes home late. His sister at least scolded for a while, or sometimes not at all because too tired with the work that piled up. Dana started smoking, and sometimes drinking.
“Bre, according to you who's hot in school?” ask Gani
“Sambal Mbok Minah. Crazy is spicy. Spicier than my mom's terasi.” Answer Rafa
“Which I asked the bege, not food” timpal Gani while hitting Rafa's head.
“My jokes, seriously very dah. Who do you think Dan?” ask Rafa.
“Eh, you're wrong. This guy's son at school read a mulu book. How to see a girl.” Hafsah Timpal.
“Eh, how do I want to see a girl. Morning ampe afternoon I study, afternoon ampe amu amu amu on. When to see a girl.” Reply Dana.
“Emang according to you who is Sah, who is hot at school?” ask Gani Back.
“My tah, Susan anyway. If you who? You started it, nih.” Hafsah.
“Kalo me, Ali sih.” Answer Gani.
“Ali? Alishba mean you?” ask Rafa.
“Yes who else? The one called Ali in our school is just one, Alishba doang right.” Answer Gani Back.
“Because I admit Ali is hotter than Susan. Plus\, Ali is so beautiful. Have you ever seen a sports shirt? Why crazy\, so bad anj***. My type is bang.” Hafsah.
“But the thing is, Ali has his guard dog Ale. No man would dare if Ale had intervened. Black belt karate, plus son of a boxing trainer. Udah, up.” Rafa Timpal.
“Well, Ale doesn't have a girlfriend. Her boyfriend is my classmate and you are Fa.” Gani Imbuh.
“Lu don't know anyway, their relationship is complicated, similar soap opera. But I admit, I swear I'm really jealous of Ale. Same date the sweetest kid in school, the most beautiful kid in school. Crazy, don't need any more that guy. Enjoy the world already in hand.” Rafa.
“Who were you talking about? Alishba's? Who's that?” ask Dana.
“Oh yes I forgot. You're a new guy. You know, the average child in our High School came from my Junior High School. Alishba was one Junior High School and now one High School too. I just don't know what class he is in. Her son is there, but he rarely shows up now. She was beautiful, but no one was snooping. The reason is because his father. But it's actually because of Ale. No one wants to look for problems ama Ale.” Obviously Rafa.
“Emang, why his father?” ask Dana Back.
“Itu..” Rafa turned his gaze to Hafsah and Gani. But Hafsah and Gani just bowed.
“Udah, later you know yourself. Noh, drink it up.” Rafa's voice diverted the conversation.
Alishba, a name that doesn't sound familiar to Dana. He almost knew all the students in his school, up to the level elder brother. Why did Alishba get out of her reach?
Meanwhile, in the silence a girl curled up hugging her doll. He wanted to cry, but tears did not come out. He's really alone now.
