SANTRIKU STREET
part 2 don't go to school
Pov dalari
Forty-five minutes passed and my work was done, because the last few days, the rain had not come down so as to ease the work to tidy it up, only the dirt of the dust and a little rubbish that was littered with it during the dry season, The wind was not so strong, so not many leaves were falling.
"Alhamdulillah" I murmured shortly after tidying up my tools to the school warehouse.
Then I set my feet towards the cottage with a little running, so as not to miss performing congregational prayers, let alone the sound of toa toa masjid telling that fifteen minutes more dawn adhan will reverberate.
Arriving at the cottage, I rushed to fetch water then, re-enter the room, to take the books that want to be studied after the completion of dawn prayers.
******
At 06:30 I was already at Mr. Chandra's house, as usual I hitchhiked breakfast at his house, which is different this time I usually have breakfast at 07:00 after my work is done, but this time I had breakfast thirty minutes early, because my work had been done before dawn.
"When you go to school, please bring your father's papers on the table!" exclaiming Mr. Chandra who just approached me from the middle room.
"Yes sir" I replied after chewing the rice in my mouth swallowed perfectly.
Mr. Chandra re-entered the front room to enjoy the cup of coffee he had made, before I came to his house to continue his work.
Finish the meal As usual I tidied up the dirty dishes, then washed them cleanly, this is a form of My Thanks to the family of Mr. Chandra, who has given breakfast for free. If cooking at the cottage, it takes time, especially after finishing studies at 06.15 so that time is not enough to cook rice, especially if so early the students have not been willing to cook, they are not preached by memorizing the books they have just learned.
Santri usually cook for breakfast at around 08:00, so with the free breakfast at Mr. Chandra's house, this is very helpful so that when I go to school I do not feel the excitement.
After washing the dishes, I went into Mr. Chandra's room and took the file he asked to bring to school.
"Is this all I've brought with me?" ask me to make sure after being in the living room.
"That's all, you'll keep it at the principal's desk!" what command is Candra still busy with the files on her desk.
"Yes, I say thank you sir, Assalamualaikum" I asked while kissing the back of his hand like a schoolboy in general when he was about to go to school.
"Waalaikumsalam" replied Mr. Candra received a helping hand to kiss, then Mr. Candra lowered his gaze back to the papers that were still scattered.
I turned my body to leave Mr. Chandra's house, but my steps stopped for a moment before opening the door.
"From" call Mr. Chandra
"Well, what's the matter, sir" Can I help you?" ask me while turning back towards Mr. Chandra, like the other servants' habits when called for sure he will be told.
"Nih" said Mr. Candra as he reached out with a hand holding the money Somehow because the money was folded, only a little money in his hand from a thousand dollars.
I approached with a face sumringah taking his gift, Mr. Chandra was very good, He always gave a tip like now, even if he again had more money, he, he will not be stingy to share it so that my monthly salary money can I save.
With that savings, I could complete the books I learned in the cottage, even my stationery needs for school and textbooks, I bought it with the savings I got from working cleaning schools.
"Thank you sir" just after the money moved into my hand, I put it in my pants pocket.
"Sama-sama, you have left school now, you will have bad luck!" His eyes smilingly looked at me.
Though Mr. Chandra as the principal is not ready, but he has told me to go to school for fear of bad luck. I don't think too much about it, it's not my job that matters Now I'm very happy after I got the money from him, because my savings are used up to buy school supplies, I'm so happy, only you left a few thousand to meet my needs at the lodge for a month.
Arriving at school I opened the teacher's room with the key I always carry, then I put all the files I had brought from Mr. Chandra's house on the principal's desk as he requested.
After placing the file, I immediately headed to the classroom that was used as the reception hall of the new students, to wait for the other students to come.
Feeling tired of waiting, because maybe I came too early so that only a few were present. I decided to head out of the Hall to my work tool storage, intending to mow the lawn, only to fill the time before school time began.
After taking the sickle I crouched down to mow the grass that began to sprout, because every Sunday I cut it so that the grass rarely grew to large
"Hi! assalamualaikum" said a woman who greeted me from behind
"Waalaikumsalam, uh Nayla" I replied after seeing who said hello.
"Kok you don't say, you want to go to school here" asked Fatimah who brought a shovel filled with garbage from her classroom.
"Hehehe I don't know either? I can go to school like this" I replied with a smile.
"Can't you?" fatimah asked curiously
"Yes, yesterday Mr. Chandra told me to go to school, maybe you already know I'm here because of Mr. Candra" I explained the real situation, while continuing to mow the lawn.
"Thank God then the story, now your ideals are achieved, spirit!!" she said with a smile, a smile I can't forget because it was the most beautiful smile I've ever seen.
"Thank you" I said, smiling back.
"Hey you guys are a school, not a courtship" snapped a stranger to my voice.
Arfan approached us with a bag on his back, indicating he had just arrived at school so had not had time to put it. Because of the kebaisan in our school, the bag is always put on the table, just want to go home or just come the bag was carried.
"What the hell, who's dating?" refute Fatimah by bending her face.
"Continue why are you two here?, if not going out" Arfan said he would not accept the explanation easily.
"I'm going to take out the trash, won't you see the thing in my hand?" reply Fatimah with Ketus then he went to the trash without caring for arfan anymore.
Seeing Fatimah go Arfan just looked up, staring at her disappearance
"That's a hell of a turn, but that's what I like" Arfan murmured very slowly but it was pretty obvious in my ears because of our close distance.
"Well, what are you looking at?" Snapped Arfan who knew I was watching him.
"No brother" I deny his accusation.
Arfan crouched down, maybe so that he was on a level with me who was again crouching to cut the grass, Arfan stared intently at me with a look of hatred Engraved in his eyes.
"Don't be a whore! later the clothes dirty brother splashed the ground" I warned him. So that the former pieces of grass do not dirty his clothes.
"Eh with the garbage man, you don't get close to Fatimah, she's my future boyfriend, even you should know later after she leaves school, I'll propose to her" threatening Arfan who was staring intently at me.
"Sir, after all, my brother also heard himself that he was just taking out the trash, where maybe he wants to be like a garbage man like me" I replied the circus.
"Yes I just warned you, so you know yourself, do not let the incident to your friend, it happened to you too" he threatened again.
"Ready sister, thank you for the warning" I replied with a smile.
"Don't smile like that, as if you want to marry again, once again be aware if I see you together with Fatimah, I'm not reluctant to make you difficult, Yes you've continued your work, yes, this one's cut!" he stood up and showed me the grass I had to cut with his feet.
"Yes Kak" answered me who kept a friendly smile even though he was very upset because of his disrespect.
"Basar has no ethics, time shows using the legs, What if his feet hit my Crescent Tebas?" I murmured in my heart. Which I didn't say.
"Hahaha you trash" he said as he walked away leaving me.
After Arfan left, my three best friends soon appeared, and the three of them crouched down to follow my position mowing the grass.
"What the hell is he talking about?" ask Heru Who is curious.
"No he just told me to cut the grass over there, he showed it with his feet" I replied enthusiastically to their arrival.
"Why don't you slash his legs, it's very disrespectful, it's a big brother, but Barbaric behavior like that" Nawir grumbled with annoyance on his face.
"It's okay, you're all my superiors, so you have the right to tell me anything. Yes, wait in class soon this is okay, later we talk again" I asked as I got up to take a broom to clean the grass that I had cut.
Feeling bad, The three of them helped me clean everything up, even though I had forbidden it, but they still mengeyel and continue to help me, he said to be done quickly and be able to chat.
