INSECURE, Love of the Past
Alone Again

I ventured to ask this beautiful teacher mother who was in front of me. I told him we wanted to apply to that school. But confused how.

Mother teacher who I do not know his name said, if you want to list must be early in the morning because when it is noon all teachers will be busy taking care of other things. If you want, come here again tomorrow, he replied.

Yes, I'm sure I'll be here tomorrow again. Don't forget I asked for the teacher's mother's phone number so I could call her later. Maybe someday I'll need some information from him. I kept the phone number of the teacher's mother. Her name is Ms. Sinta.

We went home and will be back in the morning. I saw that Ms. Sinta went into that school, maybe Ms. Sinta was one of the teachers at that school.

I waited a long time for the Angkot, no one passed by. Until this sore feet.

Today I forgot to contact Indra so busy her, I want to ask her to pick up but Kasian also Mia, how will she.? He also recommended this school to me.

I was also wrong anyway instead of looking for the information first, but it is not a funny experience if later it has grown up. Can make laugh because kudet do not know anything, even though it is a famous High School. I also know his name for the place he just found out now.

I saw my phone and there were messages from Indra a lot.I called aja deh, over time if reply one-on-one message.

"Hello, assalamualaikum Dra"

"Waalaikumsalam, you why don't you respond to my SMS? Haven't you done the list yet?"

"Yet, later in the afternoon when you play me a story deh yes. I'm sorry there's news now so busy."

"*I*it's important you're okay, I'll pick you up."

"Go ahead, look, Mia's coming home alone if you pick me up."

"Yes, if you get to the house SMS me yes.."

"OK Ready."

I'm done calling, angkot isn't there yet. I see Mia's been very bete. Same with me, where it's 12 in the afternoon. Very hot waiting for angkot under the hot sun. Ampe this charred face, it's charred added gosong again deh. Bummer!!

There is no place to shelter, if we stay in the shade later the angkotnya not squirm us. Far away from this road.

After waiting for almost an hour, an angkot came. I had to stop the car. Because that's the first one through. If it doesn't rise now, it will have to wait a long time. Even though the passengers were full and crowded, Mia and I continued to ride this car by force.

Fortunately, we were both small. Mia is tall but she's skinny so she can crumple in the corner. There are also many benefits of having a small body, not eating places. Hehe.

Just this time I feel grateful to have a tiny little body gini, then which other favors you deny?

At last.... Until I was at home but the house was quiet, like my mom had not come home from the store.

I put my body on this soft sofa. I don't feel tired, I'm sleepy.. Go to sleep first... Zzzz, Zzzz

.

.

.

The sound of greeting was heard until I woke up.. "Who the hell, disturb me sleep aja. hoamm... What time is it? Hah it's 5 and a half, mamah hasn't come home yet."

I rushed to open the door, there was Indra there.

"For so long open the door, you're sleeping, aren't you?"

"Yes I'm sleeping. So sleepy.. Chat here, it's not good in the dalem. There will be many neighbors whispering. Mom hasn't come home from the store, I think today was busy."

"Yes out there."

"I took a drink with a snack first."

"okay."

Before going to the kitchen, get a drink, I go to the bathroom first to wash my face. After that I brought drinks and snacks for both of us.

Arriving at the front porch we both sat on the floor while eating a snack that I brought earlier and Indra immediately asked, "So what happened to you until not perfect ngabarin.. I'm so worried about you."

I began to tell the incident earlier this afternoon, from starting to wrong riding angkot to stray wrong way. Indra who heard my story immediately laughed out loud.

"That's why you're worried about me. Ampe is not so good at it. nyebelin."

"😂😂😂HA HA HA... Ummm. Sorry baby, your brother is the same Mia is very funny. If you don't know where the school is, ask the cake with me. I know the place. I wanted to bring you. You didn't want to. I thought you knew the place, memorized the way.. I swear it's so bad!!"

After telling me here and there Indra went home. It was only a moment because time was approaching magrib. Mamah also just returned home, kasian mamah kecapean ngurusin shop.

By morning, I was ready by 6am. I called Mia but she wasn't picked up. How about bad luck again.. Shortly after, he called me.

I was surprised that Mia wasn't going to continue the list at that school. He said his brother in Jakarta told him to go to school there. Ahhh bete, bete, bete...

"That's all you Mia.. I don't have any more dong." Hua. huaaa... (Crying).

By the time I got out, Indra was already in front of the house. He said he'd take me to school. Because Indra's school starts its MOS (Student Orientation Period) next week, so there's still free time for me.

I told you that Mia didn't sign up for that school, because she wanted to move. Yesterday, he taught me to go to school.. I was sad to have no more friends when I was in the new school nobody I knew.
