In my dictionary, there is no such thing as getting back with an ex. ~ Nathaniel Axel.

At eight o'clock in the morning, usually the students are sitting in their seats to get lessons from the teacher who has a teaching schedule. But different things happened to the five handsome boys at Pertiwi High School.

The five of them were standing in front of the flagpole. The right hand salutes the red and white. While his left hand pinched the ear of a friend beside him. It was punishment for the five of them for being caught late for school.

The bad boy nickname that has been attached to the five boys apparently can't just be removed. Even though for a few days they were diligent in coming in the morning, in fact they were late for school again. They admitted that they missed the punishment from Mr. Heru as their guidance and counseling teacher. It's magical the thoughts of the five bad boys who unfortunately have handsome faces.

"Thirsty." Steven moaned, wiping the sweat off his forehead.

"2 in." Said Zain.

"3 in." Bagas also chimed in.

"4 inches." Danu sounds.

"5 in. But I'm getting hungry." Nathaniel added with a pitiful face.

"Is it okay to take a break yet?" Bagas started to complain. In the morning it's usually cold, but it's even hot. Where is the punishment this time they are dried in the sun.

"Yes." Nathaniel said, making Bagas smile widely. But a second later Nathaniel's words again made Bagas sluggish. "But if you want to add more to your punishment."

"I'm thirsty Niel." Oh no. Bagas started to whine.

Zain looked at Bagas like he wanted to throw up. "Unclean. You whine like a girl."

"Do not care. I'm so thirsty, I swear."

"Niel. Tell your fans to buy drinks and food there. We can die of thirst if we continue like this." Steven suggested, which was simultaneously approved by the others.

"That's right!"

"Yeah, it's been a while. I chatted with Cindy first." Nathaniel's hand took the cell phone in his shirt pocket. Looking for the number of a girl named Cindy.

"Eh, the kid is still chasing you, Niel?" Zain asked.

"Still."

"Crazy! You're not tired, are you?"

"If you're tired, I don't think so. But don't eat the liver, kid. Still don't stick with Nathaniel. Even though he also knows that Nathaniel is anti-return with his ex." Steven chimed in.

"Yes, Cindy is stupid. You know what Nathaniel is like, you're still chasing him." Danu said indifferently. His temples are also starting to sweat.

"Love dies this time." Bagas chimed in.

"Halah bullshit who pretends to say love is. Without you, I can't live. So when they broke up, how are they? Still on, not dead. In fact, you can immediately find a new one." Danu spoke again, which was in fact almost all of what he said was true.

Steven nodded his head. Justify Danu's words. "Yes yes. My ex who he said loves me to death, when he broke up he was still alive."

"Well."

"If you just act like you're going to last forever, in the end you'll be apart. After being separated, it's even worse that we unfollow each other on social media." Zain chuckled. His head shook sadly. "It's really sad.."

"Especially when you find it. His face looks like someone hates it." Steven said.

"Worse yet, if there is already a coupling. Oh, I don't know much."

The five of them laughed after hearing Bagas' words. In fact, it often happens.

"It's so fun to laugh. What are you talking about?"

"Where's the drink?" Instead of answering the girl in front of him, Nathaniel asked something else.

"Here." The girl named Cindy handed her a bottle of drink and a lunch box, which of course the five of them happily accepted.

The five of them immediately ran under the tree on the edge of the field. Sitting lesehan with school shirts they took off. They greedily drink mineral water until it runs out.

"You're really thirsty, honey?" Cindy sat down beside Nathaniel. Her right hand was wiping Nathaniel's sweaty forehead.

"Who are you calling, honey?" Steven asked, looking at Cindy sadly.

"It's my boyfriend. Who else is it?" The girl's smile is still growing sweetly. Nothing wrong with Nathaniel having dated the little girl in front of him. Her beautiful face with her big eyes. The sharp nose, thin pink lips, don't forget the girl's slender body, spanish guitar.

"Since when did you date Nathaniel again? Very confident you call him honey." Steven sarcastically.

"Not back yet. But soon will be back. Yes, honey." Cindy asked Nathaniel cheerfully who had only been indifferent to her from the start.

"You are very confident, Nathaniel will want to be with you."

"Nathaniel has been single for two weeks because he wants to get back with me." Cindy turned her attention back to Nathaniel. "That's why, let's go back now. I love you so much." Cindy started to cling to Nathaniel's arms.

"Take off China. I am eating."

"Do you want me to feed you, honey?" The girl's hand had let go of Nathaniel's arm, but it was still stuck to Nathaniel.

"No."

"Is the fried rice delicious? I asked the cafeteria lady to add chicken."

Nathaniel turned his head to look at Cindy in annoyance. "Can you shut up or not? I want to eat."

"Don't be nervous, honey."

"And stop calling me baby First, I'm not your boyfriend. Second, I have a name. My name is Nathaniel Axel in case you forgot. And third, you're annoying." Nathaniel had completely lost his temper. He feels uncomfortable being stuck by this aggressive girl.

"Oh yes one more. In my dictionary, there is no such thing as getting back with an ex. Because for me, ex should be thrown away in its place. And your place, not here."

That's how Nathaniel Axel is when he's upset. He will sound sharp and not think about the feelings of the listener.

Nathaniel interrupted Cindy again when the girl wanted to speak. "You better get out of here. Instead of you listening to my friends I also take care of you."

"There you go you bitch." Bagas joined the voice.

"What did you say!" Cindy snapped at Bagas.

"Bitch. Already a way to go. You are no longer needed here." Bagas looked at Cindy mockingly.

"There you go. Or I'll tell Pak Heru if you're absent." Threatened Steven.

Angry Cindy left the field. He doesn't want to be punished.

After Cindy left, the five boys returned to eating their food. It was so fun that they didn't realize that the counseling teacher they had just talked about had turned their backs on them.

"Good! I was told to respect the flag and even eat here. It's so cool."

"Eh Mr. Heru." It's like a whining.

"Eat sir." Steven offered instead to continue eating.

"RUN AROUND THE FIELD 10 TIMES!"

"Well, sir, why are you being punished again?" Bagas complained.

"Or do you want me to add more?"

"Yes sir."

The five of them gave up, starting to run around the field rather lazily. Their stomachs are full, they are even told to run. Surely the results will not make their stomach uncomfortable. But, it's their fault too, they are being punished, they are even cool to take shelter and eat. Don't imitate my friends.
