Chapter 6

A school, student from Brawijaya is now standing in front of the closed school gate.

"Sir, please open the gate, I want to go to class," said Rintan while putting on a worried face and very worried that he would be punished after this.

The security guard who was originally seated immediately stood up from his seat and only showed Rintan the key to the gate lock.

"It's already the bell and 10 minutes have passed, you just came and asked for the gate to be opened arbitrarily. Wait for Mr. Budi to come with a duster for your law," said the security guard to Rintan.

"No, sir, I don't want to be punished," said Rintan to the security guard.

"This is the consequence if you go to school late," said the security guard to Rintan.

"Yes, last night I had a lot of work, sir," said Rintan reasoning.

"It's impossible for you to do assignments. I know that all of your tasks are done by Revan, a handsome, kind, and innocent boy who you often bully," said the security guard to Rintan.

"You know so much. I am a diligent child and do all the tasks with my toil, why do I bother asking Revan to do the work?" Rintan asked the security guard.

"So that you can lie down and shop at the mall with your two friends," replied the security guard who didn't miss a beat.

Rintan was silent and did not dare to answer again.

"Come on, sir. I implore you, open the gates,"

The security guard just shook his head slowly and sat back down. Mr. Budi walked from the BK room to the gate and found that a student was still standing in front of the closed gate and begging to be opened.

"Rintan you are late and must be punished!!" Mr. Budi shouted at Rintan.

Rintan widened her eyes and looked at Pak Budi who was walking towards her.

"Get rid of me.. how about this? What will Mommy say later if I am punished by Mr. Budi?" Rintan muttered while scratching the back of her head that didn't itch.

Mr. Budi is now standing right in front of Rintan and the security guard who is opening the gate for Rintan to enter and immediately gets punishment from Pak Budi for being late.

"I've only been late once, sir, so the punishment should not be severe," said Rintan to Pak Budi.

"It's good that you're late asking for a punishment cut," said Pak Budi to Rintan.

"Yes, sir, yes," said Rintan resignedly to accept the punishment given to him by Pak Budi.

Rintan was finally punished with respect for the red and white flag until the first lesson was over. Devika and Winda know this laugh but not with Revan who just stays silent and chooses to take his drinking water and give it to Rintan.

Revan was sure that the beautiful girl was thirsty and hot after saluting the flag during the first hour of class and it wasn't for a while. Revan stood up from his seat while carrying a bottle of drinking water and walked over to Rintan and gave the drink to Rintan.

"Why are you here?" Rintan asked Revan who was now handling her a water bottle.

"You must be thirsty and hot, I gave you water to drink and you drink now so that your throat doesn't dry out," replied Revan while bowing his head to Rintan.

Rintan looked at Revan's drinking bottle for a moment and spoke again to Revan.

"You gave poison to make me faint right?" Rintan asked Revan and made Revan lift his head and shake his head.

"No, this water is healthy and clean, I didn't add anything in the water," Revan answered honestly to Rintan.

"How is it possible, surely he wants revenge because you often bully," said Devika to Rintan while glancing cynically at Revan who just sat his head down.

"Why are you still here I've been brought drinking water with Marklee, and I don't need your drinking water," Rintan said to Revan and made Revan turn around and walk back to class.

Revan had good intentions for Rintan but Rintan only replied with insults and bad talk like earlier. Revan responded with a smile because he was used to receiving all of that from Rintan.

"You should have accepted, not even asked if there was poison or not," Marklee said to Rintan while giving a bottle of mineral water to Rintan.

"I want to drink the mineral water you gave me..not the Revan's," said Rintan frankly to Marklee.

"It's the same in my opinion, both are water," said Marklee to Rintan.

"Well after this you go back to class and I also want to go to class following the next lesson," said Rintan to Marklee.

"Yeah, I'm just going to class, I'll pick you up later at the canteen okay?" Marklee asked Rintan.

Rintan nodded her head in agreement while flashing a big smile at Marklee. Rintan's boyfriend basketball captain, more often gently stroked the top of Rintan's head wherever he met and was about to leave like now.

Sometimes Devika and Winda are jealous of wanting to have a boyfriend like Marklee who cares about everyone and doesn't care if he is rich or poor.

"Singles continue to admit, when will love come to me?" Devika asked Winda.

"Afraid to come to you," answered Winda to Devika and immediately walked away from Devika.

"Where are you going?" Devika asked Winda.

"Going to class!!" Winda answered slightly shouting at Devika.

"So how am I? How come I was left behind?" Rintan asked Devika and Winda.

"Hurry Up!!"

The recess bell rang, all the students of SMA Brawijaya rushed out of the classroom into the canteen which would soon be full of students who were going to eat and drink in the canteen.

"It's full again, where's the boss?" asked a teenage boy who was now standing in front of the canteen and looking around the canteen which was already filled with high school students from Brawijaya.

The teenage boy is none other than Marklee's best friend named Dion.

"That's the first lady," said Raka to Dion while eating chewing gum and smiling handsomely.

"Woah, the boss didn't invite us to eat in the cafeteria," Dion grumbled angrily at Marklee.

"It's useless for you to grumble, Marklee won't care..it's better if you join, we will be treated later, quite a full stomach because it's free," said Raka with a relaxed smile while walking to the sitting table which is now occupied by Marklee, Rintan, Devika and Dania.

On the other hand, now Revan is in the book library to return the books he borrowed the last few days. All the teachers are very kind to Revan and always provide whatever learning needs for Revan.

Always good grades, very polite behavior, always respecting anyone, it makes all teachers proud and like Revan.

"Do you want to borrow a book, especially Revan?" asked Mrs. Vika, a young librarian who is about 28 years old.

"No ma'am, tomorrow I'll just come here to borrow a book to study physics," replied Revan friendly, and still bowed his head to Mrs. Vika.

"Okay, you can rest.
