The Elbow of Life
new students who are not strangers

today is the first day to go to school again after the class replay yesterday and followed by a week-long vacation

I'm grateful that my class grades have passed the value targets my parents gave me

because my repeat value is good so I can continue to manage my shirt figures

I feel satisfied with my results and at the same time happy because I can still manage the character that became my wish since seeing how difficult my parents collected the coffers for our lives better

actually for two weeks before the replay began I began to give all the affairs of the character to mother so that I could focus on learning

of course, my passion for learning produces satisfactory results

a good day to start school again

as usual I picked up my best friend, my childhood friend, and of course a friend for a fight

who else if not Aira

'' hai Aira who is pretentious I started to tease her first

' I dreamt that I could say that last night on this sunny morning ''

he looked back while looking up at the sky

'' ala emang already destiny like anywhere can not be changed'' replied me with a smile mocked her

'' ah it's been if arguing with you all must have lost''

answer her resignation

'' who was Anna then, yes I've apologized my best friend who understood the most''

'' well that's dong, I'm just kidding, if the morning does not joke with you like there is less''

we laughed together until Aira's mother came out of the house to see us and reprimanded us both

'' geez these two kids aren't you late for school ?

'' take it easy Aunt I deliberately set out from home early in the morning blind so we can relax to school ''

answer me to Aira's mother

'' yes it has already left ''

'' yes, my dear mother is also about to leave ''

aira said to her mother

'' we go first Auntie, assalamualaikum''

she answered my greetings by Auntie by saying

waalaikumsalam

I also drove my vehicle through a village road that was still quiet

it crossed my mind where I used to be happy to come with Dad to the rice field when Masi was this morning as soon as I smiled remembering when I was a child

after my motorbike parked we rushed into class and of course took the front seat

in class, there were a lot of friends coming

before the teacher came, I would eat the food I was under

' Anna Tumben you bring food supplies ''

'' yes, the end was not had time for breakfast first so mom wrapped this fried banana for me ''

I shared it with a friend who wanted a few moments while our homeroom teacher came and started the lesson by getting to know each other

in the middle of the lesson, the principal came with a student who was behind him

'' excuse me ma'am I interrupted for a moment'' said the principal

'' yes sir please is okay , is there anything I can help you with ?

'' this is Ma'am I brought a new student and it just so happened that the mother class had a little student compared to other classes so I brought him here ' explained the principal to the teacher's mother

when the principal left our class I noticed the new student and the feeling I was familiar with him I wrote the lyrics to Aira whose thoughts were probably the same as the ones in my head

and when I with the voice of the new disciple identified himself, I remembered him

'' ah no doubt it must be Gina I know very well her distinctive voice with a wet hoarse ''

I looked at each other with Aira and smiled

I really can't believe I saw Gina again

I did not recognize her about her she changed she was more beautiful and also whiter than Gina who I and Aira knew in the past when she was in Junior High School

for a moment I wondered if Gina still recognized me or maybe I just didn't recognize her

after introducing himself he sat in my bang department he stopped and greeted me by waving his hand and saying '' hi '' and sitting down

once again I looked at Aira I whispered to Aira

'' do you think Gina still knows us ?

'' it may be, she replied in a whisper to me

we started the first lesson quietly without a sound just noting the lessons that were on the board

when the break bell rang I approached Gina first on her bench and greeted her

'' hi How are you ' I made sure first whether he still knows me or not

he answered by hitting my shoulder and hugging me

that's where I know he still knows me

'' I miss you both so much ''

'' we are the same, too ''

'' I did not expect we could have one more school and could be in a class as well Gina said with a bright smile

I also did not lose her frenzy happy to see Gina again

'' we re-assembled again as before while still in Junior High'' said Aira

'' it's nice to be able to regroup with you Gina replied to Aira

we took each other off and after that we went to the cafeteria before the break was over

'' because today is the first day we get together again I will treat you as much as I say to Aira and Gina

'' wih can be full nih'' said Aira

'haha it turns out that you haven't changed in the slightest you still like to sneer at Aira'' Gina said with a laugh

'' well that's Aira's habit of memeng hard to fox ''

I said while glancing at Aira

'' uh if you treat us to what your pocket money is enough Anna''

'' uh take it easy Anna who is now not the Anna you knew back then, Aira told Gina

'' ah what do you mean Aira''

'' ah that's the length of her story that is clear now Anna is not as difficult as it used to be said aira to Gina again

'' eh kok mala talking about me anyway 'we have eaten first later to the bell in rang''

we ate our lunch by eating meatballs made by the legendary canteen mother among school students

there was a ringing bell break finished the students walking into each of our classes was the same as that
