GROWINGS

"We've arrived, ma'am.."
Stevie Wallerima. His pair of gray-colored old eyes, staring at the scene on his left side and before him. In his mind, it was never thought that he would set foot in this haunted old building.
"Please, Madam.." Derrian, his personal assistant, opened the door and helped the elderly woman who had cared for and raised him with affection.
Stevie Wallerima took a deep breath. Then blow it slowly. He felt a positive aura flowing and enveloping him.
From a distance of several hundred meters, he found several adults and students in black white uniforms who seemed to be preparing to welcome his arrival.
"Good morning, Stevie's mother. It's such an honor for our school to have such an important guest like you.."
"Mother Nuriyanti, you're overreacting.." Stevie Wallerima replied.
"Good morning, Mrs Stevie..!!"
"For children..." And he greeted the students of SMK Ellite Rovario warmly and kindly. It was just that unfortunately, he did not see the figure was among the dozens of students who were in front of him.
Ms. Nuriyanti also invited Stevie Wallerima into the teacher's room. Ms. Fatma swiftly made two cups of warm sweet tea, and setoples of pastries that Dafa had bought for her snacks.
"So, where's the blue-eyed kid?"
Bu Nuriyanti instead threw her gaze at the children of her students who were standing in front of the door of the teacher's room.
"So Dafa has come, Mom. But go again. He said he wanted to" Eka glanced at his other friend.
"What do you want, Eka?" Inu insists that the student does not talk in pieces.
"Dafa said he wanted to go next door, Mr. Inu. To see Mr. Martin Luther." Sheila finally answered.
Bu Nuriyanti and Inu exchanged glances. It seemed like the two of them knew what the boy was doing at the school next door.
After 10 minutes, Dafa revealed his nose again. While angry unclear, he entered the teacher's room and with the condition of his pantofel shoelaces that were released everywhere.
"I don't like that old shitty grandpa!"The drill. "But luckily I managed to get the letter.." Putting a map on the table.
"Becch..."
"WHAT THE FUCK!!?" Dafa glared at Stevie Wallerima. "Why did Grandma Stevie come in the morning? Wanna fuck this school too?! Yeah...!?"
All of his teachers and friends seemed stunned to hear Dafa's words. They are afraid that Stevie Wallerima will be angry let alone to demand a no-no.
But apparently, Stevie Wallerima even responded with a thin smile on his face.
"Dafa can't talk like that with Stevie's mom.." Bu Nuriyanti said.
"So what's Grandma Stevie here for? Don't know if I'm really upset with the old man who owns the bakery!?"
"How are you, Dafa?" Stevie Wallerima asked as she held Dafa's hand. And again, there was a warmth running through his body at that time.
"I told you I was upset again!"
"Becch..." He saw a plain face that always describes the spirit and hope. "How did you and the others prepare?"
"I'm so ready, of course, Grandma Stevie!" Dafa replied enthusiastically. "Just let me show everyone that Ellite Rovario High School is the best vocational school ever!"
"You know that tomorrow's race is the biggest, annual race. And there will be many more there.."
"Are there two hundred spectators, Stevie's mother?" Ask Eka from the front door of the teacher's room.
Stevie Wallerima shook his head slowly. "Until the last day, tickets sold out as many as 3500 tickets. And the plan is the committee will sell additional tickets again when on location later.."
Eka gulped. He then exchanged glances with his friends and friends.
"I can't imagine it.." Julian said slowly.
"There will be a lot of local and foreign media covering." Stevie Wallerima is back. "In addition, there will be 9 judges from several neighboring countries."
"Kerenn..!!" The eyes of Dafa are full-spherical. In his mind, he had imagined that he would enter television to be famous throughout the country.
"I don't know why Dafa got that excited.." Gabriel Said. "Maybe over the next few nights, I won't be able to sleep well..."
"Excuse me, Dafa is looking for you.." Tukas is a student.
Dafa rose from his seat. Welcomed the old man in a black suit who was carrying one large suitcase and two tote bags with great hassles.
"Together, Den.."
Dafa brought the three bags into the teacher's room. At least there is no feeling of reluctance or uneasiness in the gaze of the teacher and his friends.
"What is it, Dafa?" Ms. Nuriyanti finally asked as well.
"If this suitcase is filled, my clothes."
"Shirt...?" Inu's forehead is wrinkled.
"From tonight, I'll stay here, Mr. Inu. Let this school be safe from criminals and bullies."
"Becch..." Ms. Nuriyanti let out a short breath. He really does not know anymore how to deal with plain boys and what it is. "But what about your mother? Did you tell him?"
Dafa pretended not to listen. For him, it is better to take care of his belongings than to have to talk about his mother who can only make his heart irritated, and tired himself.
"Dafa, Ms. Nuriyanti asked you.." Madam Fatma held her shoulder.
"I'm again the same mother. I haven't talked to each other in three days."
"Why is that?"
"If I can't stay here, I want to find my own home!!" Dafa's eyes glared and his voice grew.
"It's not okay, Dafa. It's just --"
"Grandma Stevie..." Dafa turned his face to Stevie Wallerima. And automatically, making Ms. Nuriyanti must be forced to stop her sentence.
"Why, Dafa?"
"I saw Grandma Stevie's car was good. The same shoes that my uncle wears must also be expensive. Is Grandma Stevie a rich man?"
Julian looked at his four best friends with one eyebrow raised. "What's that saying?"
"What's the matter, Dafa?"
Dafa carried one of his tote bags. Put it on the table, and open it.
"This is all my birthday present. I'm going to sell everything for this school.."
And they all flinched not playing around hearing it. Especially when Dafa began to take out one by one the contents of the bag.
"Everything is new. Just the same oil paint this picture book I don't sell ya..."
"That's not the samsung galaxy note 8 huh?" Eka asked almost without blinking.
"Hour hands it--Daniel Wellington..." Gabriel reacted the same way as his best friend.
"I've unpacked my piggy bank. And now my money's gone.." Dafa's face turned lethargic. "Grandma Stevie buy ya--I beg you..."
"Becch..."
"Did Grandma Stevie not want to help me?"
"It's not that Grandma won't, Dafa. It's just, Grandma---"
"Becch..." Bu Nuriyanti connect. "You shouldn't sell your own birthday gifts."
"Why is that, Principal Mother?"
"Someone gives you those gifts, which means you should cherish every gift from them.."
"But Miss Nuriyanti, right now - you are all a part of my life. So, I can't stay silent seeing my friends have to bury deep in their dreams and dreams."
"Becch..."
"I've told you, even if I had to give my life to save this school, I would.."
"Becch..."Bu Nuriyanti's eyes were glazed over.
"Well if Grandma Stevie won't help me. I'll try it myself. Tomorrow after school, I'll find a job. And from that money, I'll collect it to redeem this school from the bank.."
