The Intercultural School
The atmosphere in class XII IPA1 was suddenly quiet when Mister Satria entered the class. Gwen who often made a fuss also looked calm, so the situation became restrained. As usual, Mister Satria placed the bag on the table, then stared into the faces of all the students in first grade one by one.
"Raffi... Who is your best friend, why is it still empty..? Haven't come by at this hour yet..?" seeing one empty seat, Mister Satria immediately asked.
"That did not come Robert Mister... Allwan moves in next to Alana, but Mister is a young man. Approach times," Raffi appoints Allwan who occupies Robert's seat. All the students in the class laughed while closing their mouths, hearing the words spoken by Raffi.
It was seen Allwan pointing his thumb at Raffi, while Alana with a frown glared at Raffi. But Raffi did not ignore it, the boy returned his gaze forward,
"All right, we start this morning with a prayer. Aldo... lead the prayer start lesson..!" firmly, Mister Satria asked Aldo to lead the prayer.
Without rebutting, Aldo immediately stood up and invited all the students in the class to pray. Do not know why, even though this class is famous if all students are badung, and like to make noise, but when it is their turn to pray, all without exception look solemn.
"Enough.." as Aldo closed the prayer, all the disciples looked forward. When the young man returned to his seat, Mister Satria again took control of the class.
"At all the students in this class, in the next four hours I can't fill the lesson. Because, I as a team companion students class X1 who will participate in the Physics Olympiad in Jakarta. For that, I will share the topic, you guys create a discussion group. Do it, and send a maximum of 14:00 this afternoon to my email." it turns out that Mister Satria can't fill out the lesson.
"Jobbly..often sir.." The class became rowdy, all the students looked happy with the announcement. But there is no reason to be angry at this class, because even though all the students in this class are notoriously badung, but the ranking of subjects is always won by this class. Finally, Mister Satria took a deep breath, then gestured to Aldo to hand out papers to some of the students in the class.
"Well, since all the students are already holding and knowing what assignments I am giving, I will be out of this class soon. Don't make a fuss about making a fuss at this school. Keep my trust." Before you get out, Mister Satria delivers the message,
"Ready pa.." after looking briefly at all the students, Mister Satria immediately walked out of the classroom.
"Gwen... want to join a group who, join with us. okay..!" from behind, Raffi shouted to Gwen.
The girl looked back, and pointed her thumb at the man, but Gwen was lazy to do it.
"Where we're going to do it, gwen has agreed it's Al. enter her name.." Raffi immediately ordered to include Gwen's name in their group. Understanding how clever the girl was, quickly without comment, Alana immediately typed in the girl's name.
"Raff... Al.., put my name on it, but I'm not in the mood to think. As for the presentation, and making my powerpoint materials that will handle everything, but I can't join to discuss.." Suddenly Gwen stood up and left two people behind. The girl quickly walked out of the classroom, grabbing her school bag.
Raffi and Alana look at each other's hands, and Novi is Gwen's friend who still lives. But there was nothing they could do, as they themselves wanted Gwen to join their group.
********
Aldo gaped at the sight of Gwen passing in front of him while riding his motorcycle. The man is unable to hold the girl back, as Gwen immediately flees her Ducati out of the school gate. The school gate that happened to have not been closed, because to pass in and out of the vehicle carrying Olympic participants, facilitate the departure of the girl. Gwen's motor bolted out, and the girl seemed to have no purpose. Keep driving around and turning the city of Bogor.
"I felt sad, unable to focus and concentrate on learning in school. But I also can't just go straight home, because I will meet Om Barra and also Atmadja's grandfather.." while continuing to turn the motor gas in the right hand, he said, Gwen kept going around in circles.
Unknowingly the motorbike driven by the girl headed towards the city forest, it turns out that the girl had unwittingly entered the Bogor Botanical Garden area. Seeing the lush trees, and looking cool in that place, Gwen pointed her motorcycle towards the city forest. Not long after, the girl stopped her motorbike, on the edge of the seat made of cement.
"Hempph is very calm the atmosphere in this place, very refreshing.." the girl muttered to herself. Smiling, with great admiration, Gwen spread her gaze around. Large, lush plants, adding to the coolness of the place, are perfect for finding oxygen during the day.
"Drrtt... drtt.. drttt.." suddenly the girl's phone vibrated.
Slowly Gwen took out from inside her bag, and saw who made the call to her. After being seen, it turned out that Aldo made the call,
"I want to be alone again, I don't want anyone else in this place.." Feeling sorry for missing the moment of enjoying the scenery, Gwen ignored the call.
Gwen instead took the phone, after letting Aldo's call be missed, the girl immediately turned off her phone. Gwen sat on her back, leaning her back against the tree trunk behind her. Gwen's eyes blinked and shone, looking at the couple playing with their two sons. It looks like they are on vacation, and fascinated by the beauty and coolness of the Botanical Garden, it seems.
"How lucky the two children are, both parents can still accompany him to play. Unlike me, God loves Jack and Sophia more, so God will not let me grow happy with him.." Gwen muttered as she looked at the little family.
"I will not let my children later have a fate like mine, will be pleasant and always accompany them, for any business." continued Gwen.
"What... What am I thinking?? Whom do you cook with Om Barra.. Oh my God. Why do my daydreams lead me to think of that cold, old man." looks like Gwen is so sorry for that self-evolving thought.
But suddenly Gwen again remembered the incident this morning, where she unconsciously turned out to sleep in the arms of the man. The girl was embarrassed, until her cheeks turned red, and Gwen covered her face with both hands.
