Mission to Save the Heart
5. Lunar That's Hard to Understand
As the head of OSIS who was directly chosen honestly and fairly by all the students of Aerospace State High School, I try to protect all my friends, help them when they are in trouble, he said, including being willing to become the leader of an impromptu apple because one of the apple officers was not present because of entangled Salmonella Thyphi bacteria – Tips.
I did do my job well as the leader of Monday's ceremony, leading the respect to Sang Saka Merah Putih who began to move to the grandest point to honor the fighters who were willing to bet their lives for an Indonesian independence. It's just that the embarrassing fact is that this time I can't really follow the ceremony solemnly. And all that again because of Lunar.
“PERFORMANCE MOTION!” I screamed in the most unanimous voice.
Throughout the ceremony until the end, the shadow of the Lunar and all its practitioners continued to dance in my head, making my mind tormented by the thousands of questions that this logic utters. I think I understand enough about the woman thanks to the mother who always taught me. However, it turns out that my knowledge will never be enough even just to understand one female mind. Why were they created to be difficult to understand?
After Lunar kissed my lips without permission – seized my chastity and snatched my first kiss –, somehow my days were not as peaceful as before. Every time I saw the Lunar in some shitty coincidence, every one of those things my brain automatically remembered a snippet of the nadiriest scene of my life. Even in the most crucial moments when I had to face the set of questions at the end of the National Mathematical Olympic Selection, the beautiful Lunar face that filled the netra dijarak nearest that we ever made increasingly crowded the corners of my mind and space.
“Oy! What's wrong, lo?” theo slapped me while patting my shoulder. “Balikin his mic!”
I heard the request and thrust the flip-flop microphone I had just pulled out of the tie, letting Theo keep the tiny object to the safest spot in the deviation room near the front office.
“Yo! I want it to be serious!” chirpku, gather the most effective and efficient vocabulary in the midst of the action Theo who was busy cleaning various ceremonial equipment. “For example, there is a girl who suddenly he mengelakuin wrong to elo, ngelakuin careless things to elo, continue to mediemin elo for days, abis was made by him he suddenly apologized and asked you to forget all his mistakes. Well, how will you react?” my search.
“Depends! If the mistake is my loss until I make a burden of mind for me anyway, yes I definitely ask for responsibility!” he piled up a few black maps. “Why? Would you like to ask for compensation to Lunar?” theo's question behind successfully shook my defense.
“No! It's not about me or Lunar!” I twitched until I accidentally raised an octave of voice. “Gue is just a fad, aja!”
“Boy! This is it, not the guenya who is too sensitive! But, elya is less pinter!” hardik Theo without load. “Not all of you say that the error is because you already nyium and permaluin lo in public, continue abis it pretend not to know three days!” grunts, making me forced to circulate the view to make sure we were away from the crowd.
“Lo crazy, huh? Just keep going!” my circus was full of threats, I glared sharply.
The young man who is famous for the exotic skin layer then locked his mouth tightly. Perhaps he did not want if one of the maps I was holding was floating in the air and anchored in the face of the steep mediocre.
“Terus lo yourself answer what?” search Theo with a posture of vigilance in case this black flat object really I throw at him.
“Oke.”
“Huh?”
“Yaudah, okay!”
THE PLAQUE!
My hands could no longer bear the turmoil so they finally managed to land this black flat object on Theo's venomous mouth. “Gigi lo keel!” I whispered satire.
“Sick, onta!” screeched Theo while gently rubbing her swollen lips.
Currently Biology class is at the last order where time feels the longest because all students have almost run out of energy, considering we have been forced to swallow a bundle of matter from morning until dusk. Even though when evaluated, actually mastering the material optimally is a rare case among students like us. Nevertheless, a speck of conscience in my little heart still had to fight to the end.
If my school had an education system that gave us plenty of free time to explore, I might have had more opportunities to develop my interests and talents. It's also possible that I can get into the national level at the Mathematics Olympiad, right?
Be honest. Actually I also do not want to blame anyone, considering I did not have the opportunity to do that trivial thing because there were already so many school assignments waiting for me to finish. Not to mention the pressure I received was not just from one direction. Unless there are from different sides. Both from school, organization, family, and even my own ego are full of ambition to be able to meet future expectations.
“Lunar! Can you explain what ribosome means?” ask Ambar ma'am.
Although it was not my name that was mentioned, but the surprise attack from the woman managed to make a pair of my net that was originally sleepy, now open clearly as wide as Theo's forehead. Ms. Ambar would have had an interesting way of awakening my entire sanity.
“Ribosome?” racau Lunar, he's been bullied for some time. “Mmm... The ribosome is a granule of nucleoproteins whose size is only fifteen to twenty nano meters, the smallest of the other organelles.” although at the beginning of the Lunar sound sounds doubtful, but in the end he can answer exactly.
“What are the two main components of ribosomes?” it turns out that Ambar bu is quite persistent and still trying to attack the Lunar, either as a manifestation of appreciation or just want to test.
“Subunit large and small subunit.” timpal Lunar easily. “These two subunits combine and form a structure similar to a burger in the middle of which there is an mRNA. The mRNA functions as a prescription mold for making certain proteins. So, the main role of ribos..”
“Enough!” trim the Ambar bu, perhaps begin to give up and acknowledge the Lunar understanding.
Oh, errata! It was actually me who had secretly acknowledged the Lunar's extraordinary comprehension. Not because I don't understand what the girl unraveled on her back. Except because a Lunar – student in the middle rank – knows the material that has not been taught by our teachers in school. Suddenly I was amazed and caught at the same time. Perhaps this is why my mother always reminded me that it is not appropriate for humans to hold a sense of high-heartedness and humiliate others. For they may have an ability even greater than I imagined.
“Other times please pay attention to my lessons even if you already understand, Lunar!” bu Ambar gave an unwritten ultimatum to the girl sitting right in the middle of the room.
“Sorry, mom.” Lunar regret, if you realize that it has made women decompose the neck is offended.
