SOLAR & The Specialists
Bu Hana Class

Reagan made it into the first team. That he had predicted. Christian is also on the same team as him. He also predicted that. What he didn't expect was the time it took to finish the game, and not the selection of him as captain.

Reagan and Christian were both not selected as captains because they were both aggressive. The captain position requires someone who is calm and can think clearly even under pressure. Reagan did not like to be defeated. Christian moreover. Their coach decides to choose Felix, their upperclassman, to serve as captain and mediator for Reagan and Christian if both are involved in the fray. If Christian had given up quickly, perhaps the match would have finished in time before physics classes began, Reagan grumbled inwardly.

Reagan washed his face and changed clothes before entering the classroom. He had already missed an hour of his favorite physics lesson. Once he arrived, the class seating position had already turned into two camps. Left and right.

"You're late, Reagan." Tegur bu Hana, their physics teacher.

"Sorry, mom. I just finished playing basketball." Reagan apologized. He was still standing in the doorway. "Where can I sit?"

"Today's material is about the solar system. Today I deliberately set you apart to argue about 'Other Life Besides on Earth'. You have to argue spontaneously and rationally. You can choose to sit at the table of the camp who agree on the possibility of life other than on Earth." Ms. Hana pointed to the right, where she saw Selena and Mindy sitting in the front row. Reagan held back a smile. Somehow Solar thought that smile was an understatement smile. "Or at the table of the disagreeing camp." Furthermore, Ms. Hana, pointed to the opposing stronghold Selena. Without thinking, Reagan immediately sat in the back row of the opponent's camp that was empty.

"Okay, let's continue the debate. Those who agree, please reply to the argument just put forward by the opposing team. Who will explain?" Tanya bu Hana as moderator. Solar raised his hand and immediately stood up.

"We don't understand with the opposing team's belief that your galaxy, I mean, the Milky Way galaxy, is the only galaxy that has a habitable planet. Life forms are not just living things as you see them everyday, such as humans, animals, and plants. What about algae? Microbial form? There are many planets in this world that no human has ever been to." Solar smiled amusedly, considering how much less experienced this species named man was when compared to himself as a heloxe. "The planets are inhabited. What you call aliens, some of them with advanced technology, send signals of all sorts throughout the solar system. The technology on this planet may not be able to capture it, so you still think that humans are the only intelligent species." Solar continues with confidence. He reveals his personal argument. His team members did not seem to mind at all.

"Please the disobedient camp to return its arguments. But remember, it must be rational!"

Reagan stood up. His team members seemed to be in disbelief because they had prepared a list of notes to refute. They feel the need to coordinate first about who will explain it.

"That's your problem. What you consider facts is not necessarily true. There are civilizations far more advanced than this planet!"

"really? NASA hasn't found it yet, huh!" Reagan Sahut.

"You just take longer to see for yourself."

"There is no life other than on earth, Selena. The planets around the earth do not meet the criteria of habitability for living things." Reply Reagan.

"I didn't say around here! Your galaxy is just one of the smaller galaxies in the world."

"How can you prove it?" Reagan's eyes narrowed, "Unless you're an alien yourself." Both Solar eyes are rounded. Unknowingly, he even opened his own disguise. There was a stifled laughter coming from his friends. Solar is looking around. "Are you an alien, Selena? Why are you so sure that there is life other than on earth when there has been no research results that say so? Have you ever met an alien? How's shape?" Reagan's question made the entire class explode in laughter. Both of Solar's hands clenched in anger. Reagan. The guy thought it was ridiculous and made it a laughingstock for the whole class.

"May I upload a video of the debate of two of the most brilliant students in the province on the school blog?" Mindy picked up her phone, looking at Selena expectantly. He has documented it all because he thought that the debate between two rival people since class I about the existence or absence of aliens was quite exciting. Solar ignored. Both of his eyes were busy glaring at Reagan who was just a small smile towards him.

Arrogant species!, rutuk Solar.
