I yawned many times. Mrs. Diana still explains at length about the enzymes in the digestive organs and their respective functions, making almost all students in her class sleepy. Including Becca and me of course.
I saw that Veronie was really listening to Mrs. Diana's explanation. The girl even recorded everything that came out of the woman's mouth in full and detail.
"What demon possessed you to become this diligent?" I whispered to Veronie.
"Shut up, I want to focus on listening. I've been too relaxed. I don't want to be like that anymore. Anyway, this semester I have to get high marks," said Veronie while clenching her fists to encourage herself.
"Are you not sleepy?" Becca asked in a whisper.
"If you pay close attention, you will not be sleepy," replied Veronie, still focused on listening to Mrs. Diana's explanation.
Becca and I were amazed by the diligent Veronie. in my heart always ask when I can study diligently like
"La, wake up, mama has cooked you your favorite food," said my mother while shaking my body.Eyes still sleeping, I got up -- walked towards the dining room.I opened the serving hood on the dining table. Asian food in soup was served right in front of my eyes, the aroma filled my sense of smell which actually made me nauseous.I ran to the bathroom and let out my guts. But still all that comes out is water."La, are you okay?" my mom asked worriedly."I'm fine, Mom. I just caught a little cold," I replied."Are you sure you are all right? Mama is very worried about you, my daughter.""I'm okay, Mom. I'm fine. I'm no longer a five year old kid. Calm down," I replied trying to calm down."Alright, I'm sure you're old enough to take care of yourself. Oh yes, today Mom, Dad, Kris, and Kimberly are going to Switzerland, where Aunt Ling is. Do you still remember Aunt Ling?"Of course I still remember. My mom's sis
"How are you, La?" asked Arga when we were busy making video calls."I'm still very weak. My blood doesn't stop coming out even though it's been more than two weeks. This is the longest menstruation I've ever had," I replied while stroking my still aching stomach."Is your family home?" Asked Arga carefully.I nodded. "They got home last night.""Didn't they ask you why you were sick then?" asked Arga quietly.I shook my head. "They think I'm just sick. So they don't bother about it."I'm grateful that everything is fine again, La. Now you have to rest a lot, La. You can't be tired. You have to really recover first," said Arga.I nodded in agreement with his words."When did you start back in college, LaIt's been two weeks you haven't gone to college, right? "Asked Arga.Indeed I purposely did not go to college because of my weak condition after aborting my pregnancy."I'll start going to college tomorrow,"
It has been a week since Arga has not contacted me, even my social media accounts have been blocked by him. I continued to cry, thinking about Arga who just got away from me. Arga, what's my fault that you got that angry with me? Do you feel that you are unhappy with me who you think is this possessive person? Don't you feel guilty for leaving me, the woman you slept with and was pregnant with your child? Don't you feel guilty for your late son? Tiiingg ... A message came to my smartphone. Could it be from Arga? Excited and full of hope, I quickly opened my cell phone. Becca: Have you sent an assignment to Mr. Malverick? He already asked when you will send your assignment to him. Mr. Malverick said you didn't reply to his messages. My smile faded when I found the fact that the sender of the short message to me was not Arga but Becca. Shit! Why does Mr. Malverick have to give so many tasks when my heart is breaking? It's useless he is h
Mr. Simple's song belongs to Super Junior rang loudly on my phone, forcing my eyes to open. With heavy, I opened my dry eyes because last night I cried. I cried thinking about how to tell the truth about what happened between me and Arga to my parents. Daniel Wu's name was printed on the cellphone screen. She is my cousin who lives in Germany. "What is wrong?" Daniel Wu asked me. "Are you busy?" I asked. "As usual, neither too busy nor too relaxed. What's the matter?" "Can you come here?" "To your house?" asked Daniel Wu in surprise. "Yes." "Are you crazy?" Damn it! My ears were almost deaf from Daniel's yelling at me. "Can't you just go on for a day without screaming? I feel like my eardrums are going to burst from hearing you scream," I grumbled. "Forgive me." "It turns out you haven't gotten away from your bad habit, huh?" "Hey, never mind. What do you want
BRAK! I choked when I heard the sound of falling objects. What is that? I opened my eyes and I found Becca picking up her books which were scattered on the floor. "Are you awake?" Becca asked who I didn't seem to need to answer anymore because she had seen me wake up, right? "Do you want to go to college today?" Becca asked again. I shook my head quickly. Becca hands on her hips while shaking her head. Maybe he was tired of facing me every night who just cried while sipping the vodka that I always kept in his refrigerator. "Until when are you going to cry over that bastard, La?" asked Becca, who already knew why I kept shutting myself up. I shrugged, I don't know. I don't know how long I continue to cry over Arga's departure, the man I really love. "Are you sure you don't want to go to campus today?" Becca asked again. I nodded firmly. "Mr. Malverick will look for you later if you don
I woke up when something tickled my leg. Becca smiled mischievously. It turned out that Becca was the culprit who had tickled me. Damn it! It disturbs my sleep time. "Get up, you have to go to campus now," Becca said. I sat and fell silent. To campus? Oh, yeah, yesterday I told the girl that today I'm going to college -- after all this time I've locked myself up in Becca's luxurious apartment. "Can't I go to campus tomorrowsuddenly my laziness appears again, "I said with puppy eyes. Becca sighed. "You are ... hey, listen to me! There are billions of people in this world who do not get the opportunity to study due to many factors. You have been given that opportunity. But what are you doing. You just wasted that opportunity just because of that meaningless bastard. Rise up, La! You can't go on like this. " Gosh, must Becca be scolding me this early? My ears felt hot to hear her babble this morning. I kicked the blanket that covere
Today I wake up very early, no matter this is a Saturday where I off and do not go to college. Usually I use Saturdays and Sundays to wake up in the afternoon because I don't have to prepare to go to campus. But today is different. at five o'clock in the morning I smell good with my white t-shirt and black jeans. I packed my clothes and utensils into the big suitcase I had brought with me when my parents kicked me out of their house.Today I officially returned home after months I stayed at Becca's apartment. All night Becca and I spent alone together to just cook, watch movies, and chat.Becca walked over to me with her face shabby because she just woke up."Are you sure you want to return to your house today?" Becca asked.I nodded firmly. "Of course. I have reconciled with my family and I have to go back to them, Becca. For months I have been giving you a ride here," I replied.I saw the sad look on Becca's face - as if she couldn't let go
I rushed down the steps to the small church or what is commonly called the chapel in this monastery. Some of the sisters looked at me irritably. Yeah, I haven't been here a week, I've pissed them off with me. How come? I, who are not used to getting up early and following the eucharist at five in the morning, have to follow it. A tall pastor began reading the Bible this morning. Huh, it turns out I'm a little earlier than yesterday. Yesterday I was late for the Eucharist, even the pastor was home. Today's Eucharist is progressing faster than any previous day. I walked back to my room. I haven't set foot on the first step yet, Sister Clara called out to me. "What's the matter, Sister?" I asked. "Looks like you can't keep up with our routine, can you, La?" Of course not. Hey, I wasn't here because I wanted to. It was the absurd plan of my parents. Even now I don't know what my parents meant to send me to the monastery
