Stopover Place
Chapter 7's

Today there is a learning schedule in the lab. Computers.

Because in the last week has been taught the material, today is a practice schedule.

The material presented last week was about how to install the RJ45 cable.

Last week was also told that today will be a practice and will be in value.

The teacher exemplifies the process of how to install the cable. All of them pay serious attention to each step so as not to be confused when the practice later.

After completing the example, then the teacher divides the group.

Each group is two people. Group divisions are sorted according to absent numbers.

I'm in a group with Abi, because my number is absent and Abi sequentially.

Then the teacher told them to find their place.

Because I'm a girl, I choose a place in a horde of little girls.

I forgot that I'm with Abi's group.

But he also complied and protested I chose a place there.

Though he was there his own man, while other men were in other places.

I tried to make a move to a place where there was a guy, but he gamau.

"Udah gapapa is here" he said.

And I follow what he says.

The teacher distributes the cable to be used and some tools to be used. One group of one cable each and one tool.

When installing this cable should be careful.

Initially the cable is peeled first the outer protector. You can use scissors or tools that have been prepared specifically for practice.

When peeling the cable should be careful, do not let the cable inside break.

Inside there will be 8 small cables that have different colors.

In its installation the color sequence of the cable should be sorted and appropriate. Don't let anyone reverse the order.

Before installing, the cable must be straightened first. Then sorted according to the color order and then the length of the cable must be equated first.

How to equalize the length of the cable is cut with the tools that have been provided.

The cable is hard enough to make it hard to cut. Each time in the cut sometimes can not be the same length and must be cut again until the same length.

I had trouble cutting the cable. However, I did not ask anyone for help and still tried to try it myself.

Nana is also there and Nana also has trouble cutting the cable.

"Bi, please cut the cable dong," said Nana for help to Abi.

Abi just shut up and help Nana. Abi remains busy with his own cables.

While I, still can not cut the cable because it is very difficult in my opinion.

Maybe for boys it's easy, but almost all girls have trouble cutting the cable. And even have some of my cable until it becomes short because it is cut and cut.

"Here Dil I help you," Abi said suddenly.

But he also still cut the cable he was holding and occasionally glanced at me.

But I kept quiet and did not answer his offer.

I keep trying to cut the cable myself.

Abi looked at me who was trying to cut the cord, and I actually realized that I saw him.

But I remained silent while still trying to cut the cable myself.

"Can't you?" tanyanya gently.

Then he put down the cable he was holding.

Without my consent, he took the wires and tools I used to cut the wires from my hands.

I pecked right away when Abi did that.

I could only silently look at him and watch him grab the cable I was holding.

At first I wanted to refuse his offer of help, but it turned out that I was silent and let him help me.

"Kok he help me anyway, but it was in the mintain please Nana aja aja do not want," my mind.

I got the cable.

"Oh okay, thank you" I replied.

"Yes together"

I didn't think he would help me, but I didn't ask him for help at all.

He gamau help Nana even though Nana asked for help to him and even I who helped.

"So I asked for help, now Dila did not ask for help even helped," said Nana.

And yes Abi again just silent as if he did not hear what Nana said just now.

I really don't feel good about Nana and don't know what to say. Though it's not my fault, but it still does not feel good.

I also do not know other children around me are aware or not about the incident just now.

But I guess they are aware, just that they are silent.

I could only stand still while finishing putting up the wires I was holding. And Abi also quietly continued to install the cable he was holding as well.

All focus on their own.

After a while.

Some of my friends are already done and are moving forward to be valued.

"Isn't Dil yet?" ask Abi.

"Stay," I replied.

"Okee," replied Abi.

"You want help?" tanyakanya.

"You don't have to, why am I alone" I replied.

Actually I'm not good too if you accept Abi's help again, so I finished myself.

Abi is waiting for me to finish.

In fact, we practice ourselves.

Just because each cable there are two ends, so one group of two children.

Each child works on one end of the cable.

So, I got the end here, Abi got the other end.

Time in value, the result when in check between the ends I work with that Abi work the color sequence should be the same and nothing reversed.

If there is a color sequence that is not the same or inverted, it means it is wrong.

A lot of my friends are wrong, I'm worried that mine and Abi are wrong.

After mine and Abi finished, Abi immediately went ahead and checked it first before being graded to the teacher.

The teacher asked to make a check first before being assessed, and gave the opportunity to repeat one more time if wrong.

"Where? really already?" I went to Abi.

"Start," he answered.

"Yes, it's all, really," he continued.

Yeyy. it turns out our cable is real.

I'm glad to hear that the cable that Abi and I are working on is real.

After that the cable is collected to the teacher for grades.

In addition to the value of right or not, also in the value of neatness. If the mass is not neat, the value will be reduced.

I hope my grades and Abi's grades are good.

After that incident, I often think.

What exactly did Abi mean to me at that time.

Why would he help me, but he seems to care when in the mintain please others.
