The exam days come too. All twelve students undergo a series of exams. Starting from UTS, the final semester exam, the final exam level, and various university entrance exams. Each of which will be attended by high school final-level students.
Eca increasingly diligent learning, in addition to the intention from within her strong encouragement from mama also that influence. He is now preparing for the final exam. While studying for the final exam at school he also studied for the preparation of the college entrance test.
After a few nights, Eca chose two majors that interest her, namely informatics techniques and digital marketing. He chose both majors because it is very strategic in the present era which is all digital. Eca wanted when she finished college to have a lot of job opportunities.
The preparation is no joke either. Every night he studied. Even on Monday night, he was still studying. Although Gian rarely went home to teach him because the man was busy for tests at various universities, he was still eager to learn on his own.
When he can not answer about training he will open youtube or learning application. If he still doesn't understand, he'll video call Gian. Only then did the man explain patiently and repeatedly. Sometimes he is also furious when Eca is very difficult to understand the problem that is too complicated. And Eca's answer was always "once again yes, please" with a pleading gaze and both hands fused in front of the chest. How did Gian not melt? That move is Eca's mainstay weapon. And Gian always fails to maintain his anger when Eca has issued that style.
Eca never gives up on learning from morning till night. Once Eca dropped and had to be rushed to the hospital. The effects of fatigue and lack of sleep make the immune system Eca decreased drastically. Even his weight is also decreasing. One house to the confusion, Papa Eca even canceled his departure out of town to accompany Eca who was suddenly spoiled that night. He did not allow his father to go for a second except to eat or go to the bathroom. She kept holding her papa's hand while muttering "pa, I can't be sick. Immediately the test.". The father, who heard the voice of his youngest son, tried to calm down by stroking Eca's head gently and whispering an encouraging sentence.
At that time, Eca was very sticky with the papa. Drinking and eating should be bribed by the father. Otherwise, he would not touch his food. Mama is irritated by the nature of Eca. Every now and then he would hit Eca's head slowly to channel her wrath.
The father did not go to work for a week. As long as the papa is quite a hassle because it has to handle work online. It's less effective. But what can I do. That's also he just held his job when he made sure Eca slept.
After they recover, their routine returns to normal. Mama takes care of the house. Papa and Erna are working and Eca is busy studying. Sometimes mama misses when Eca is sick because then they can get together completely. But that doesn't mean he wants Eca to be sick anymore.
Thanks to the persistence of learning Eca, its value increases rapidly. Some of his teachers were amazed by the significant changes of Eca. They always encouraged Eca so that she would not give up. Thanks to that support as well, Eca is increasingly ambitious to complete her school and enter the best university.
At the moment Eca is in the car with Gian. Just two. They're heading to Gian's mama's salon. Gian asked to be accompanied when he came home from school so that he did not get tired of waiting for the mother in the salon alone. As a good friend, Eca accompanied Gian.
Arriving at the salon, mama Gian who was curly hair welcomed Eca with enthusiasm. He told the salon worker to stop for a while so he could have a taste with his best friend's son. Not forgetting she ordered food for Gian and Eca so as not to get tired of waiting. Coincidentally beside the salon there is a vintage-style cafe. Mama Gian called the cafe owner to deliver the order at the salon.
"eat Ca" Gian told Eca.
"uh yes."
While eating Eca noticed the hair of Gian's mother who was curly with very beautiful. Her hair is not painted in a medok but in a natural style. Eca was also sedated by the handkerchief of salon workers who were sweeping the foundation to the face of Gian's mother. Very detailed. Ensure all parts are applied evenly.
"Ca??"
"Ca?!"
"yes-yes. Why?"
"you're not drinking?" asked Gian while thrusting a drink in front of Eca.
Eca drinks the drink Gian gave her. She looked back at the make up process. He was very interested when he saw the activity. He appreciated every detail that the salon workers did.
"so cool, Gian?" said Eca suddenly.
"what?"
"the salon worker."
Gian looked over and nodded his head. He was also quite amazed by the workings of salon workers in this place. They are very detailed. Gian always waits for hours. Which sometimes makes him bored half. It was fortunate that there was Eca beside him so he did not feel too bored waiting for the mother.
"you like?" tanya Gian turned her head towards Eca who was staring at the make up process in front of her with great focus.
"i like it so much. It's exciting to see it."
"try if you are interested."
"ha??" astonished Eca while turning her face towards Gian who was currently looking at her as well.
"yes. If you like, you can take a salon class."
"haha. . . Lt's not. I'm just amazed. If the profession seems not suitable."
"i-iya anyway."
"if you are interested, try to see the tutorial on youtube. You can try it with you first."
"haha. . . I have to learn the preparation for entering univ. There's no time."
"look now who's ambushed." ledek Gian.
"ck!" Eca hits Gian's arm.
Eca again noticed the make up process. Now we are using eye shadow. The salon worker chose a natural color probably at the request of mama Gian. The worker looked expert as he swept a brush across the eyelids. Slow but creates a very beautiful gradation with a very precise blend of colors.
"seriously deh Ca. You can see in youtube make up tutorial if you are interested in it."
"ta-but."
"you can see in your free time. Hows it? It doesn't interfere with your study time, does it?"
"are you sure?" tanya Eca put her hope in Gian's answer.
"yes. Do what you want."
"o-okay." said Eca shyly.
"not to be ashamed. That's one of Eca's abilities. You should be proud."
"yes. Thank you Gian" Eca said with a big smile.
"uh what about your exam yesterday? Smoothly?" connect Eca.
"fluent. It's pretty hard but luckily I can still answer."
"i never doubted you anyway" Eca said as she patted Gian on the shoulder.
"new early stage Ca. There are still psychotes exams and interviews. I've also been preparing to take tests at another university."
"a lot of yes, too. Gian's spirit!! I'm sure you can! Because you're Father Hari's son."
"what the fuck brought you."
"his intelligence is down from his parents."
"so my mom's not that smart? Is that why you didn't call my mother? I told my mom yes. Ma!"
As fast as lightning Eca shut Gian's mouth. His mother Gian had heard the screams of Gian who called him. He looked up and asked why. Still shutting Gian Eca smiled awkwardly and said that nothing happened.
"ih! What buckets!" said Eca while hitting Gian.
"hahaha. .mukamu funny Ca hahaha . . ."
Eca pinched Gian's stomach. But not mempan. The man was still laughing because he thought Eca was tickling him which made the man's laughter even louder. Eca pinched Gian's cheek in order for Gian to stop laughing.
"don't pinch Ca but in elus. Kayak gini" said Gian while demonstrating elusan using Eca's finger that had pinched his cheek.
