THE RECYCLE LOVE
Chapter 7

This time Eca went to les quite excited because last night, she had compiled a roster. Tumben-tumbenan yesterday he was looking for material that will be discussed today in tutoring. He has read the outline. Eca does not want just planga-plongo during tutoring like her first day there. She's traumatized. Especially if Cio to his taunting can be embarrassed again he. Especially he did not want to be underestimated by Gian. Gian's humiliation yesterday was very much in the memory of Eca. From today Eca declared war on Gian. He did not want to look stupid in front of the man. Although he was not smart but he was not stupid as well he thought.

"ma, I'm going to les ya."

There was no answer from my mother when she was sure that the one sitting on the living room sofa was her mother. The woman was seen staring at her old phone. He looked serious and occasionally scrunched his forehead.

"mom! I'm leaving"

"ah yes. Be careful on the road" replied his surprised mother.

Strange, his mother is not as usual. Are there any new rumors on the phone? Usually the mother will be very serious when there is a hot gossip on social media. How else, the soul of his kepo already exceeds the average. But this time my mom was a little shocked. Eca was curious, but she also had to go to tutoring before the bus left.

Arriving inside the classroom, Yuyu was already on the chair while waving at Eca. He smiled broadly. Eca became excited to get to her seat.

"you've come at last Ca. I'm lonely to know."

"heir . . . This is me coming. But you always come fast huh?"

"want how else my brother was the man on time to go to les I was told to come early. Otherwise he wouldn't take me to tutoring."

"oho that. Good dong you so don't have to rush."

"yes. But it's quiet too if it comes too early."

"you just have to wait a little while anyway" said Eca, pointing her thumb and forefinger at a close distance.

"yes. Oh yes, Cio came looking for you. But I don't know where the kid is now."

"hello everybody. Hello Eca bab-ikkkk" exclaimed Cio while playing the tone on the last syllable.

"well, long life. He was nongol" Yuyu said.

When Cio was about to pass the Eca chair. Immediately Eca took the opportunity to hit the side of Cio's body. He also paid no heed to Cio's whining complaining of pain.

"good afternoon kids!" teacher from the front.

"good afternoon Miss!"

Tok tock . . .

"sorry Miss, I'm late."

"please sit Gian"

"thank you Miss."

"Good kids, today we're going to talk about Black's Basics. Does anyone know how the Black Basic process works?"

Some students showed their hands up. Including Yuyu, Eca, Cio and Gian. The teacher looked at her. Choose the student he wants to give the opportunity to reveal the answer.

"well, new boy please give your opinion" said the teacher as he pointed towards Eca.

Automatically all views point to the Eca. Suddenly, Eca was terrified. He was not used to getting this kind of attention. Even in her class, Eca never gives the answer even if she knows something. He's too embarrassed. I don't know why this time he raised his hand. If you know this, he better not raise his hand. Then he glanced at Yuyu next to the one from earlier giving her the code.

"it's okay. Just say it." whispered Yuyu.

"city . . . As-asas-black applies when the process of mixing ice with water." answers Eca nervously.

"what water?"

"city . . ."

Suddenly Eca blank. He can't answer anymore. The material he was reading was gone. As if replaced by his incredible nervousness. His hands were cold and sweat was pouring down his forehead.

Eca was a little grateful because Miss Tika wanted to appreciate her. Now he smiled wryly towards Yuyu. As if complaining about the atmosphere he faced. Yuyu smiled broadly.

"good work Eca!"

"thank you. But I was really nervous because I saw a lot of people so I forgot next."

"nothin. You're already more courageous."

"The piglets I know are usually brave. Even nyolot." whispered Cio from behind.

Eca turned her head back and pointed her fist at Cio. When he was about to turn around again, he saw Gian who did not glance at him even once. He focused on looking ahead and hearing Miss Tika's explanation.

"well, does anyone know Black's Basic formula?"

"i'm Miss."

"good Cio, please."

"the Qlepas sigma is the same as the Qditrema sigma."

"yes right! Good Cio!"

Eca glanced at Cio in amazement. If the friends in the class saw him now, they would be surprised. Because Cio in class is an ignorant person with subjects. Eleven twelve with Eca in class. It's totally unexpected.

"now Miss love about. If 0.5 kg ice block (temperature - 20 degrees C) is mixed with 1 kg of warm water (temperature 80 degrees C). If the heat of water type \= 1 cal/gr degree C, the heat of ice type \= 0.5 cal/gr degree C and the heat of melting ice \= 80 cal/gr, then the water mixture will be balanced (all water) at temperature? Okay, please count, when you're done please show."

"well Miss."

Well in this section, Eca really does not know. Want to use what formula. And what is the description of the formula. He's very confused. It was Yuyu who started writing the formula.

"Yes, what formula do we use?"

"sigma Q releases the same as sigma Q absorbed."

"emmm but I don't know what sigma Q is off hehhehe. . ." Eca laughed awkwardly.

"nothin. So, after writing this formula, you continue to write. Qa \=Q1+ Q2 +Q3. Then m water times C water multiplied (80-T) \= m es . .."

"get ready Miss." exclaimed Gian from behind.

Yuyu's explanation was cut off. Gian was done even though Yuyu still explained the formula to Eca. Others are still counting. It hasn't been 2 minutes since Miss Tika gave it up.

"okay, Gian. Please"

"the answer is 23.3 degrees Celsius."

"yes right! Give Gian a round of applause."

Everyone applauded. Eca looked at Gian with awe at his speed working on the matter. Even the answer is correct. Now Eca feels the distance is very far with Gian. The distance of their abilities is like the distance from sabang to merauke there are many kilometers. Okay, Eca's starting to think more.

"Gian is smart indeed" Yuyu whispered from the side.

"yes. He's a famous ambis kid in my school."

"he's just too studious."

"yes. I admit. I often find him studying."

Eca breathed slowly. Against Gian. He automatically loses. Their comparison of thinking is very far away. If Gian has stepped 20 times then Eca has only stepped 1 time. Eca smiled wryly thinking about it.
