The second hour break bell finally reads, it indicates that the formal event series has ended and it is time for all MOS participants to have lunch.
Anders got up from his seat, and wanted to head immediately to the cafeteria filling his empty stomach and feeling very hungry.
Meanwhile, Rida remained in her seat. He ate a snack given by the committee.
Inside the small cardboard box that contained the cake were some wet cakes, such as spring rolls, lempers, and some light cakes and a glass of mineral water.
Seeing Ridha who was so greedy eating the snack, Anders then thrust the small cardboard to Ridha.
“Why?” rida asked, chewing her food.
“Take mine.”
“You are weird, cake is this delicious but you have no taste to eat it.”
Anders did not answer and put the cake on his seat, he immediately went to the cafeteria.
“Hei. Are you serious?” ask Ridha back.
But Anders still did not answer him and continued his steps out of the hall.
In Anders' heart, he thinks he's doing the right thing. He rather let Ridha to decide to eat the cake or not, it was up to him.
He also does not want to take Ridha to the cafeteria, because people who are just getting acquainted with others will usually prioritize their feelings of pride rather than their personal desires.
If Anders takes Ridha to the cafeteria, it is certainly likely that the answer is yes and agrees to follow Anders.
Instead of refusing and giving a first impression that could be according to Ridha is not polite.
The school cafeteria is located in the southern part of the main hall, where there are five food stalls.
The first stall sells a variety of fruitful foods, such as soto, rawon, and soup.
The second stall provides food that is not fruiting or dry, such as chicken geprek, and default.
Warung Tiga sells non-Indonesian food menus, such as ramen and nasi lemak.
While the fourth stall is a fried rice specialist stall. Fried rice and fried noodles served in the stall are very tasty with the strength of the spice flavor.
The last stall, specifically selling drinks for high school students. There are so many variants on offer, ranging from hot drinks such as coffee and tea, to fruit juices and some cheap versions of smoothies.
Upon the arrival of Anders in the canteen, he immediately chose a stall that was quieter in the queue. Because he was chasing time to pray in the mosque, before the break time ran out.
The condition of the cafeteria was very crowded, so inevitably Anders had to join the table with anyone.
“Murid new here huh?”
“Yes, Anders.”
“Sorry?”
“My name is Anders. I replied before big brother asked, and I won't ask back.”
“Hahaha.. I'm Adam. Welcome to this school. A luxurious school that many people crave. But not that good either. Do not be surprised yes later.” replied Adam with a little message that is quite confusing for Anders.
“Okay.” says Anders is short.
“What meal message should I order?”
“Nation Fat.”
“Good. Tasty, for the size of Fat Rice cheap version.”
As it turns out, the deserted stall does not describe the taste that is presented. At first he was skeptical of the taste later, but after Adam said it to him. His doubts also diminished.
“Keep why the shop is quiet?”
“I don’t know. Usually the shop is crowded. Many people may not want fat rice. Or got tired of his very strong pot. Everyone has a choice, right?” obviously Adam.
“Yep. Can I ask you one thing?”
“Of courses. Why not?”
“How many students here are proficient in English? Or does anyone require?”
“No, students here talk like that because they want no obstacles when they want to study abroad. Including me.”
“Where? Where do you want? ask Anders.
“Undergraduate, Harvard. Postgraduate, Yale.”
“Good luck.”
Anders ended his conversation when the fatty rice he ordered had already come. He immediately ate his food, and completed the activities in the cafeteria as quickly as possible.
After the food was finished, he immediately paid and rushed to the mosque which was to the west of the canteen.
