A Life Story
Chapter 5, Adolescent Life

After graduating from elementary school, I went to Cipeundeuy State Junior High School 1. In Junior High all the friends from elementary school are divided. I was in class E. All the students in this class are people I don't know yet. Only one of my elementary school friends is still my classmate in Junior High, Rima.

During this Junior High School education began to use a semester system. In the first semester of 1st grade, I got the first rank, while the one who got the led ranking was Rima, a friend in elementary school. But, entering the second semester because I began to be affected equally, I became naughty. I started smoking because everyone who was friends with me smoked.

One time I was playing to another class to meet up with a friend in elementary school. But, in her class I got less than bad treatment. I was in the middle of getting out of class when I wanted to go back to my class because the doorbell had rung. I don't know what the purpose is, but that must have made me angry. It turned out that the one who blocked me was the naughtiest kid in the class.

"Udah Dan, don't be served" said my friend.

"You shut up, Gung, who is so good at this, must be taught a lesson" I said to my SD friend, Agung.

"You want what you? dare to be like me?" said the brat while yelling in front of my face.

"Don't yell that dong" I said back to him.

Then I was pushed until my body hit the wall. Without further ado, I immediately raised my fist towards his face, but he dodged. If only he was hit maybe he would fall because I took a blow with all my might. After that, everyone in the class looked at what I was doing. I finally left the class after the teacher came.

"I'm waiting for you behind the school" he said, pointing at me. I kept going to my class regardless of what he said.

The bell for school sounded. The boy was actually waiting behind the school. I love coming home from behind school. He pointed at me while shouting.

"Hey...here you are!" his yell.

Then I took the three of her with my friend. It seemed that he had not come alone, there were probably 8 people with him. Not just his classmates, it turns out that he brought a big brother.

"What's this?" ask her.

"I'm curious about you" he replied.

"Strike fast, don't talk much" said his friend who is kaka class.

"Oh so bring a big one, Gung, call the Willi" said I told my friend to call my neighbor and also my playmate when playing football which is a 3rd grader. Hearing me talk like that, they fell silent.

When I turned to my abstinent son, he immediately threw a punch towards my face. By reflex, I parried his hand which I immediately hit back. My punch this time hit the target right on his left cheek. He was straight on, and without a long time I immediately kicked towards his stomach so that he fell down and fell. Then I used a lockdown like in an MMA show until she couldn't move.

At the moment I was about to hit him, one of my friends who witnessed me fighting shouted to us.

"There's Mr. Dedi" said my friend. Sure enough, in the distance I saw Mr. Dedi, one of the teachers in Junior High was walking towards where I was fighting.

I ran the one my friend was following, and the boy ran the opposite direction from me. I ran to my friend's house not far from school.

"Dare you and her" said my friend when he got home.

"Ah, which is so mah not diemin, if didiemin even more pretentious he" I said with a little ngos-nangosan for running. After afternoon, I went home.

The next day, me and the boy were called by the teacher to the construction room. Someone reported a fight yesterday. After a long time in the coaching department, I returned to my classroom. Since then, the boy who fought with me became no longer feeling pretentious. And, from then on all the students, let alone the 1st grade students all became disinclined to me.

Besides my misbehavior, smoking, I also like to stay up late at night. As a result, in the second semester of the first grade my ranking dropped to rank 2.

Entering the 2nd grade, I was increasingly respected not only by my classmates, but also by students in other classes. Maybe the lecture in class 1 spread in school.

"And, by yourself?" he said a little surprised me. I don't know why in class it feels quiet like never before.

"Eh, Amel, I don't know where" I replied.

I know her name because she knows the beauty in her class, and the guys in my class talk about it a lot. We talked for a long time, starting from the origin area to the original school.

"And you don't want to be my girlfriend" he said.

Deg, my heart suddenly jerked. Understandably, I have never had or experienced anything like this. Moreover, this I shot the same girl, pretty anyway. I became wrong with his behavior.

"In addition to being smart, you are handsome, I like you since the 1st grade" he said again. I just kept quiet while looking at his face. I finally answered.

"Hmmm, yes I want Mel" I replied after thinking it might be nice to have a girlfriend at school.

"Well, you want my girlfriend?" ask her.

"Yes really Mel" I said with a smile. He also seemed very happy with my answer.

As we were chatting, there were footsteps leading to my keals. Sure enough, the sound of footsteps was indeed heading to my classroom. It turned out that my classmates were also going to practice basketball.

"Eh there's Amel, I'm sorry, so it's a nuisance?" ask one of my friends.

"Ah no, anyways I'm here just jerk, want to take Hamdan to the basketball field" his answer casually. He was in class for almost 1 hour with me. And a lot of things happened that were all first for me.

"Okay, I went to the field first Dan, see you on the field" he said to me waving and leaving my class.

Since then, I've been with Amelia at school. Time before class, time off, even time to go home I was always with him. Eventually all of my friends and Amelia's friends found out that we were dating. Many congratulated me and some were even envious. How not to envy, Amelia is the sweetest and most beautiful female student in her class, even the guys in other classes talk about it a lot, including the guys in my class.

At the end of the second semester in the 2nd grade of Junior High, my achievements declined again, I got second rank. Perhaps it was because my concentration was divided between education and romance.

Entering the 3rd grade of Junior High, Amelia and I became more friendly and envious of other students. In this 3rd grade, I was ranked second in the first and second semesters. Apparently, the love story of Amelia and I did not have much effect on my achievements. In fact, I'm getting excited about school.

At the end of Junior High School, during the 3rd grade parting, my school held an art performance. My friend and I performed on the show with some songs from Peterpan and ST12, my favorite band.

At the event, I was invited by my friend to drink alcoholic beverages. I got drunk and when the other class performed rock and metal band songs, I went dancing with my friends. Apparently it infuriated Amelia.

"Hamdan, are you drunk?" amelia asked by saying my name which she usually called me with the word dear. I just keep quiet.

"I don't want to have a drunken girlfriend, even though I'm not a good kid, but I'm a drunk" he said in a very angry tone.

"We broke up?" said again.

I begged Amelia not to break our relationship. But he seemed very angry and disappointed. I finally accepted his decision. I love him very much because of him I know many things.

The farewell ceremony was over, and it seems that the school farewell event was at once the separation of me and Amelia as girlfriends. Yes, Amelia was my first girlfriend even though it was not my first love, because before I officially dated Amelia, I actually already liked girls in other classes.

"See you later, experience giver" I thought as I remembered.
