"Kay......"
"It's here." Take Lulu.
Hearing Lulu's invitation, I who was focused on learning immediately closed the book and approached her.
"Why?"
"Have you heard, the news about the exchange of students yet?"
"Yet, why?"
"Listen, there are only 7 people who will be elected later. Unlike last year, this year's quota is less." Evidently.
"You know from whom?"
"Syifa, this morning I heard from him. It was also said it could only be 4 people, because this year there are other schools that participate in the submission of exchange lessons as well."
"Ah......."
"If I am, be thankful. If nothing is okay, his name is also fortune."
"Yes yeah, the important thing is we've tried."
"Heyeh......"

My name is Kayla Nafisah, I am the only child of a mother named Sabrina. He was a single parent to me, because from birth my father left me and my mother. Until I was 18, my father had never laid his nose or just told us both.
At first I reasoned that I would work in Hong Kong, go with my friend. But after a year he left, there was no news or news that reached us.
Mother had been trying to find information related to the disappearance of the father at that time, but the strange thing is that the family of the father is like closing access for the mother or me.
Since then, we started our lives in a small town. And mother also started to open a business of grocery stores or grocery in our village. From the results of that effort, mother and I can survive until now.

Now that I am in the XI class of Negri High School in my city, this year I am interested in taking part in the exchange of lessons that are routinely held every year.
Fortunately my friend Luna or often called Lulu was equally interested in joining the program.
Lulu and I have been friends since my move to the village. At that time he and I had just entered 4th grade Elementary School. I remember very well, at that time he was the one who approached me first to make friends. Because of my family's incomplete condition, along with the stories that were rumored by neighbors in the village most other children at that time were reluctant to make friends with me.
Only Lulu, who was the only one who wanted to make friends and play with me until now.
A month ago, Lulu and I accidentally saw the announcement that in the near future there will be a student exchange program to one of the favorite schools in Jakarta. At first I was not very interested in following the program, because I felt inferior and unsure of my abilities.
But Lulu convinced me and asked me to try it. Moreover, I have the full support of my mother.
Today has been a month since I followed the selection and should in the near future the results should be announced by the school.

When the break arrived, like the usual day Lulu and I went straight to the school cafeteria. But our steps stopped when Syifa, our classmate, called us both names.
"Why Syif?" Ask Lulu.
"That's what you should see, the announcement posted on the mading." Her speech.
"What's wrong?" Ask me.
"Ah, you see. Let's all you see right away" she replied with a smile.
Seeing Syifa's expression made me suspicious, it must have been something to do with our student exchange program.
"Yeah yuk, we'd better take a look. We'll go to the cafeteria, I'm curious."
Fortunately the distance from the place of the mading is not so far, only about 100 meters away.
How happy and mixed sad, I see my name is in the ranks of students who managed to escape and can follow the exchange program this year.
David Rahadian's.
Kayla Nafisah
Luna Agustin's
It turned out that Lulu's estimate was true, there were only 4 students who managed to pass the program this year.
"Yes......."
"Finally after the struggle and the process we've been through all this time."
"We can get to this point, Kay."
Lulu looks so happy, she stops him from jumping for joy. To the extent that other students passing by were astonished by his behavior.
"Lu, it's already."
"Then it's seen with the other kids, shame."
I pulled him over and took him straight to the cafeteria for lunch.
...¶ ¶ ¶ ¶ ¶ ¶ ¶ ¶ ¶...
Upon arrival at the cafeteria, we were immediately faced with the presence of Dea and Hera. The look in their eyes both radiated dislike towards me and Lulu. They are students who are in the same class with me at the moment, but we are in a different class. They used to be SD and Junior High friends with me and Lulu.
"What else you're doing now are the two of them" said Lulu slowly.
"Here we go, we don't pay attention to them both."
I haven't been able to avoid them yet, Dea has already pulled my hand violently.
"What the hell are you?" Snap me.
"Oh arrogant well you, expect you to pass the student exchange program."
"The bigger the head is," continued Hera.
"Yes, um,"
"You guys what the hell? Not sure what to look for because we're both." Lulu.
"No, as long as your friend is....."
"As long as I'm why? It's actually my fault that you're the same. Since long ago you guys have a hobby to look for because of me."
"I don't think I've ever been looking for trouble with you guys." Continue me.
"The problem is you, because you were born without a father." Timpal Dea laughing.
Hearing that, my eyes immediately felt hot. It felt like I was eager to reply to Dea, but I was instantly weak when someone mentioned about my life.
"Eh you've been outrageous for a long time too well,"
"What do you know about Kay's life, to the extent that you dare to judge her like this." Lulu.
"Eh Lulu, you really want to be friends with him."
"Had he had no father, lest he be a bastard again." Connect Hera.
"Dear your mouth,"
"You have no right to judge me that way."
"I'm silent doesn't mean I can't face you all this time. It's just that I'm lazy, dealing with a spoiled child like you." Point me.
My anger has been held back unstoppably, all this time I chose to be silent as they both insulted me and chided me.
"You have the courage to fight with us." Dea did not accept it and her hand was already preparing to throw a punch towards my face.
