"Hey.. Do you want to be friends with me?"
I looked at the person who asked me that question.
A man. He was a little above average, his blond hair was a little dark short and he wore circular glasses.
Smiling, he asked me to shake hands.
"My name is Hardian Effendy, call me Hardian. You're Kaira Anastasya right?"
"Oh, my name is Kaira Anastasya. Commonly called Kaira. Hello know ya~"
That's how I got my first friend in class.

"Woahhh.. So you like to play Billiard, right?"
Hardian looked at me in awe like a man who had never played Billiard in his entire life.
Is it true that 16 years of life have never touched Billiard?
"Yes that's.. Almost every weekend I would go with my best friend to play Billiard."
"Owh. Next time you can show me how to play hehe. It's just the ball."
"There's a trick, Har. So-------"
I spoke at length to Hardian about Billiard's game from the rules to how he plays. Hardian seems to have understood this game, he nodded several times as if he was a smart child.
"Now I understand what this game means."
His black eyes seemed to be twitching which indicated he was serious.
"Other times let's play together!" take me to Hardian.
"So. I can't play because I'm busy." He refused my invitation with his innocent face.
-_-
Bstf*t! He himself seems to want to play.
I really can't guess what this guy thinks. But at least he looks like a nice guy and is fun to talk to. My heart felt more comfortable after getting one friend. Maybe at recess I'd like to take her to the cafeteria for lunch.
"Kai. Take a break to the canteen!" bring Hardian.
I just wanted to say that.
"Boleh Har. Do you know where the canteen is?"
"On the ground floor anyway. But not far away."
It is 3 floors. Pretty far.
"Jude, we'll go to the cafeteria together."
"Okay siip."
We decided to go to the cafeteria after class ended. Some students began to scatter out of the classroom towards the ground floor cafeteria. So did me and Hardian, we were competing in line through the crowded battlefield in the canteen.
"Many times Kai, how can we order a meal?"
"Let's just wait in line first."
Maddened. Over time this canteen has been like a market, the longer the more crowded. I think from tomorrow I'd rather bring supplies than eat in the cafeteria.
In the middle of the noise of the crowd. Suddenly there was the sound of someone snapping and the sound of people being hit.
"YOU ACCIDENTALLY HIT ME BUT GAMAU APOLOGIZED. GREAT TOO YOUR GUTS*T!!"
BUUKKKKK BRUAKKKK !!!??
"AARGHH!? MY HANDS HURT SO MUCH!!"
"Let's see someone fighting!"
"Well, who's fighting?"
Did a fight happen? I couldn't see clearly because it was covered with the crowd of students.
The happ happ.
"What's going on in there?"
Hardian jumped up a few times to see what was happening there. But it seems he still cannot see it.
"I'm curious!"
Hardian was annoyed.
I didn't want to mind it so I ordered food. Stomach filling is my priority. Whether they fight or not is their business is none of my business. So I better not know about it. Just focus on yourself.
.

Clock free.
Free hours are the dream of all students in school. Teachers don't come in, there's no rules, there's no governing, which means we're free to do anything. In my class at this time some of my friends began to do their own busyness.some sleep, play games, draw, gossip and me..
I'm not doing anything.
"Hey Kaira's. What are you bored of? Play yuk!"
Hardian came to my desk and broke the silent atmosphere in my mind.
"What do you want to play?"
"What can I do."
"I thought you had a plan."
"Hm. Kaira, look at that."
Hardian pointed to one of the female students who looked very popular in my class. That man, Tania Maryati. He's playing Guzheng? What the fuck is that big thing how do I bring it here?
*Note: Guzheng is one of the traditional Chinese musical instruments similar to the lute.
The beautiful music from Guzheng made the entire eyes of the class dwellers turn to Tania. He skillfully plays it, his hand movements and body poses are also good. I guess he learned it from a musical instrument course.
"Good Tania muantap polllll!!!"
"WE LOVE TANIA!!!"
"The music is good to hear. Keep your heart calm and cool."
"May I join Indonesia Idol."
"LET'S MAKE TANIA FANS CLUB."
Like I thought, he was going to be an artist in class.
"Thank you everyone. I just learned." He said it while smiling sweetly making him almost get the whole heart of the boys in my class including Hardian.
"Aah~ if she were my wife."
Hardian was drowning in his hallucinations. Do I need to wake up?
"Har is aware of Har. Just met today I've made a couple hahahaha."
"You don't see which girl is perfect like Tania. There may be a guy who doesn't like him. The point is the guy who made it with him was very lucky anyway, could have him first before the others."
"Owh, so you don't have a boyfriend yet?"
"You underestimated me for being single? Patience is Still a Process, Still a Process."
Hardian is very funny when we talk about the relationship between guys and girls. Apparently he is this sensitive when it comes to dating.
"Yes I know. Hope you find a partner who suits you."
"Really? Thanks Kaira you're good."
He tried to hug me. But it's good that I'm telling you guys brengs*k!
I avoided her embrace so her head slammed gently into the wall.
"Hiks. Kaira is evil." He still jokes with me.
"Haha. Now we get ready first. Will you return it?"
"Oh yes too. Okay let's get ready!"
We didn't talk until we got home. We went out of class to the school gate to go home.
"Lho apparently papa same mom already waiting in front."
I was surprised to see my parents come to pick me up on my first day at SMK.
"What about your school, Kaira? Have you made any friends?"
My mother asked me while holding my shoulder.
"I've been friends with 1 person. His name is Hardian."
"Friends of boys ya~ story has forgotten the same Adam nih."
My mom's jokes made me think of Adam. What is he doing?
"Haha. Mama there-there was. We're just friends of ma~"
Then my mom and dad drove me home.
