Sometimes Friends are the Enemy

Sometimes Friends are the Enemy
Part 5's. Fate Damn


Betty was really busy that night. Being physically busy is also mental. He had to clean the wet floor because of his own work in the midst of excessive worry. She's worried Linda will take Micky completely and leave him. In addition, he also worried about how to receive answers to the problem without being discovered by the teacher the next day. Because his math teacher's eyes are sharp like eagle's.


He was always agitated in his bed thinking about all that. While Linda studied hard until midnight to prepare for the exam.

Finally that day arrived. The first day of the week that begins with a stressful morning. After the line on the field, Betty and Linda went straight into the classroom and sat quietly preparing themselves. While other children, some are still joking, chatting, and others are looking at the awkwardness on their faces.


The math teacher is very disciplined. Because normally, once the bell rang, a few seconds after that, he would be seen walking in the hallway of the school, and ready to enter the class he was about to enter. But it has been two minutes since the bell rang, the teacher also has not been seen.


Almost all the students became boisterous and very noisy to the point of interfering to the next class. Their noisy voices were even heard to the headmaster's room, whose room was aligned and only separated by two classrooms. So the headmaster immediately got out of his chair and walked quickly to the classroom. He said in a loud voice,


"What's this about? Your voices reach the land of men! Who's the teacher that came into your class today?"


"Sir Toto sir." Said one of the students.


"Sir Toto can't get in today. He had an accident this morning. Now Mr. Toto is being treated at the puskesmas. Don't you have a job to do?"


"There sir." Said one student.


"If there is, why not do it? Why is it your mouth that works? You guys are like the people in the market! The storm's not playing.


Watch out! If you hear the noise again, Mr. Suru you all brush all the WC in this school and draw water. UNDERSTAND!" His impact.


"Understand sir!"


"Yes already! Open your books and learn for yourself!"


The headmaster remained standing in front of the class for a while, until he saw the entire student open his book and read it. But all the students did was pretend. Because deep in their heart and mind is to play and have fun.


After the headmaster saw all the students had focused on their books, he left. The students remained silent for a while until they felt confident the headmaster had already entered his room. Then there was a student who lured his friend to talk and asked him to joke. As they were engrossed in laughter, they unintentionally looked towards the window and saw the headmaster standing while glaring sharply at them.


Instantly they were shocked and silent. Then the headmaster called the two of them out. He said,


"Come on you two! You think dad's gone?


I stood in front of your class and watched you. You can see you have no interest in learning. I've only left your room for a moment, but you've dried your teeth. Now just choose, want to dry your teeth in the yard there or brush the WC? ANSWER ME!"


No one dared to answer. And just get scared. The headmaster said again,


"So you guys laughed great. Now it's like chicken peot. Whereabouts? Dry your teeth in the sun or brush your WC? Let's answer!"


"Bind WC sir." The two students were scared.


"Well already! Go and grab the brush as well as the bucket! You guys brush all his WC clean."

Meanwhile Betty is thrilled that the exam is off and Micky is no longer a wage. Linda was very upset that all her plans had failed.


The math teacher had an accident when two rickshaws were scrambling to catch up on a deposit. The two rickshawmen had just returned from the market. In addition to carrying passengers, the rickshaw is also full of baskets of vegetables and fruits.


The two rickshaws were inevitable again when they were speeding on the narrow streets. While the teacher who had been careful riding his motorcycle, had to bear the consequences when one of the rickshaws grazed him and they fell. Everything was crashing and scattered on the road. While the other rickshaw driver walked on and did not know what was happening behind him.


They all suffered minor injuries. But even so, one of the rickshaw passengers exerted all his strength to spill all his anger on the rickshawman. He screamed as he grabbed the pedicab's hair, and,


"Eat it! I told you, 'Don't speed! Don't speed! And don't speed!' But not noticed. Now all my groceries are ruined. I don't want to know! You have to replace all of that! Otherwise, this rickshaw of yours I'll sell to replace it."


"Ampun ma'am. Nay! My wife will be angry."


"I don't care! You think my husband isn't angry either? GET ANGRY! Know it? My husband's mouth is worse than yours. If he is angry, his words can be as painful as a wasp sting. Anyway I don't want to know! You have to take responsibility. You'll explain everything to my husband."


So the woman forced the rickshawman and took him to her house, to her husband's face, no matter which hand or foot she was hurt. Then he said,


"Sir, look at this! All our groceries are ruined because of him. My hand was also injured and bleeding because of him sir." He said while whining.


"What's? How come?"


"He was speeding on the road with the Harmoko, the delinquent. Mama warned me, but she was stubborn.


This is! His mouth is so smart to answer!" He said as he pinched the lip of the pedicab boy furiously.


Then he said again,


"The mouth said, 'Quiet aunt, don't worry.' Mama has hanged sir."


"So where's all your mama's groceries?"


"Still scattered in the street sir and ruined everything. Mama come straight here so this guy doesn't run."


Then the woman's husband said aloud while pulling the pedicab's collar, and,


"So you want to replace it or not? Or I'll just hang you up in the salak tree behind the house?"


"Don't sir. Forgiver. I'll change everything."


"Well already. Where's money?"


So the rickshawman took and handed over all the money in his pocket to the man. Then he came home with a painful heart while dragging his leg which was hurt due to injuries, due to being pinned down by a motorcycle.
