"I feel that Wijaya is a mature person, he looks bright and warm, this brings a very comfortable feeling when socializing.
Moreover, his eyes look so deep, like they have many stories that attract other people to come closer" replied Ida.
"Your words are like verses in a poem Ida... do you really have feelings for junior Wijaya?" Asking in a teasing tone, Indah responded to Ida.
"Hey... I don't feel like that, I just feel happy to see a junior like Wijaya" replied Ida back with a helpless face misunderstood by her friend.
On the other hand, Wijaya who had entered his class greeted his friends.
Seeing Wijaya sitting while holding a brochure, Rudi, who was curious, took the brochure from Wijaya's table and asked.
"Do you want to join this community?" Rudi asked while handing him a brochure containing the name of a community.
"I just find it interesting, so I will try to study it further" replied Wijaya not answering Rudi's question honestly, because he wanted to know if there were any changes brought by his rebirth.
Because just yesterday he saw with his own eyes that destiny changed in the election of class president.
So this made him wonder if there was something else that would also change, because of himself.
Even though he was also aware of whether there was a change or not in the Saung community, he would still decide to enter it.
It was not without reason that he thought so, because Wijaya realized why he would come back if he couldn't change what he should be able to change.
"You yourself, have you chosen a community to join?" Wijaya asked Rudi back.
"I'm confused, there's nothing that I'm really interested in," Rudi answered again with a slightly frustrated feeling, because the time given was very little to determine the community.
"Why don't you start with your interests?" Wijaya asked again, giving advice.
"Interests... what I love!" Thinking confusedly Rudi thought about what Wijaya asked (sometimes that's what happens to many young students, they will be confused about the interests they have, even though answering it should not be difficult.
Because it is related to the major they take in college, but who doesn't know that not all students who enter a major are not because they are interested, but because of encouragement from parents, circumstances, closest friends and others, which in the end they will only find the answer after living their lives).
"Why are you taking so long to answer it?" Wijaya once again spoke urgently to Rudi.
He knew that his good friend was born into a very good family, and for that reason there was no pressure in Rudi's life, except maybe the hopes of his parents who wanted to see Rudi become a teacher.
But that was not something that Rudi hated because in the future he would indeed become an elementary school teacher.
"I'm confused!! But I like poetry and novels" Rudi answered later after he thought for a while.
"Then, well this community is suitable, they teach poetry, theater and novels" Wijaya immediately responded by pointing to the brochure that Rudi was holding.
A brochure about the Saung community, his community in the past and present.
"Ehhh ... .yeah…you're right, they seem to have quite a few achievements" Rudy then realized what Wijaya said, after he examined the brochure that introduced the Saung community and the achievements they had made.
"Let me see what achievements they have made" then Wijaya took the brochure from Rudi's hand.
And soon he started reading it "winner of the poetry competition at the Nusa city university level..
Third place winner of the Nusa city theater festival…
Second place winner of the Nusa city university novel creation competition…
And several other achievements, which of course made Rudi even more convinced to join.
"Okay, I've decided if there is no better community than them, then I will join this community" with full determination Rudi then spoke.
On the other hand there was a hidden smile that Wijaya kept secret in his heart from Rudi.
Because now his small goal to recruit Rudi into his community seems to have paid off.
He still remembers that Rudi did not choose his community and entered another community because of lack of information.
And only in the 4th semester did he join his community, where he then became Wijaya's junior in the community because of the later time he joined.
As for Wijaya's goal in including Rudi into his community, it was none other than because he made Rudi a plan for the changes that he would make in his community.
And now his attention is focused on another male friend in his class. He would be very happy if all the men in his class would join his community.
Because after that the changes he would make would be easier to do, but Wijaya also knew he needed to make an effort to convince them to join.
Not long after, the lecturer immediately entered the classroom, and the second day's lecture officially began. And it took 1.5 hours for the class to end.
Time passed quickly, now the clock showed 12 o'clock, where the lecture session ended.
During the class, it could be said that the lecturer only introduced the basic knowledge of the lessons taught, it was understandable because this was the first time they met.
So the session would be more relaxed than usual, don't forget some books were also included for reference for the next lecture material, and they were asked to complete them as soon as possible.
"Where are you going to buy this course book?" Rudi asked Wijaya.
"Relax, I know where it is, let me tell you in front of the class" then Wijaya stood up from his chair and immediately made an announcement in front of the class.
Seeing Wijaya standing in front of the class, his friends immediately became interested in what Wijaya wanted to talk about.
"Okay, everyone's attention," Wijaya's voice echoed throughout the class and drew the class' attention to him.
Getting attention, he immediately began to speak "as you know that the lecturer has given us some reference books that are needed in studying his course.
Here I will explain where you can buy the book, and as a note in the next course there will definitely be many books added by other lecturers.
So that you don't get confused, I will tell you where you should buy and find out where the books are.
The first is the university cooperative, where you can find a list of books that you must complete.
Then another place is the big bookstore across the street in front of the city university, there you can also find the books.
And one more thing of course is if you have senior acquaintances in the language and arts faculty, then you can borrow from seniors you know.
Of course this is just a suggestion that I give, as for whether you will use it, it's up to you to respond.
But please remember, the price of books in the university cooperative is cheaper than bookstores outside, but unfortunately the number is limited so please buy it immediately if you have dollars.
Another way is if you have limited funds, borrow your friend's book and photocopy it, it will be much cheaper than the original price of the book.
Those are some suggestions and information that I can give, if you have other information that can be given, don't forget to share it with your friends in the group, thank you"
.
After Wijaya gave his friends suggestions, he immediately returned to his seat.
"What do we want for lunch?" Rudi asked when he saw Wijaya had returned to his seat.
"Anything, as long as it's filling, I'm not too picky about food," Wijaya replied again.
"Do you want to invite Irina and Lily?" Rudi asked again.
"You can invite them if they want," Wijaya replied, not objecting to Rudi's suggestion.
"Okay, then you wait a moment," Rudi then went to meet Irina and Lily.
Not long after Wijaya finished his books, he saw Rudi coming towards him accompanied by Irina and Lily.
"Let's have lunch, Irina and Lily want to join us," Rudi said to Wijaya.
"Okay, then, let's go out," Wijaya replied, agreeing with Rudi.
So then the four of them went down from the 4th floor where their class was located to go downstairs for lunch, this time they used the elevator.
In the elevator, the four of them then chatted again about where they should have lunch.
"What do we want for lunch?" Rudi asked.
"I'm free" Wijaya replied.
"How about we eat fried rice?" Irina suggested.
"Okay, I agree," Lily replied, agreeing to Irina's suggestion.
"If you want to eat delicious and cheap fried rice, I know where it is" Wijaya gave them suggestions for a place to eat.
"Okay, let's go to the place recommended by Wijaya". Rudi replied
So then with Wijaya's guidance they went towards the back canteen of the campus where the stall selling fried rice was located.
Walking for a while, they soon arrived at the back canteen where rows of food stalls were neatly lined up, where various types of food were sold.
And one place that looked inconspicuous at the back of the row of stalls, said Nasi goreng Madam.
Seeing the food stall, Wijaya was reminded of the past when he came to this food stall, he still remembered that this food stall was introduced by his seniors in the community.
At that time after the activities in the community, those who were hungry were invited by seniors to this place, where they then found out that there was a stall selling delicious fried rice there.
With a friendly fat middle-aged woman as the seller, who has the nickname madam.
Madam is known as a kind and friendly seller among students and the price of food sold at her stall is very friendly to the pockets of students.
So the place became crowded with many students.
Not long after they arrived at the stall, inside the food stall several people were seen sitting and ordering food.
On the other side in the kitchen of the stall, a fat figure of Madan was seen busy making orders.
Choosing an empty table that could accommodate four people, then Wijaya invited Rudi, Irina and Lily to sit there.
Taking the menu on the counter table of the stall, Wijaya then asked them to order food.
"Come on, order this menu" handing them the food menu.
Not long after, Rudi became the first person to order "I want to order 1 plain fried rice with iced sweet tea as a drink" Rudi told Wijaya his order.
"I'll have special spicy fried rice, drink iced orange," Irina said, telling her to order.
"I'll have spicy fried noodles too, drink iced orange" Lily also told Wijaya her order.
As for himself, Wijaya decided to order boiled egg noodles with rice, as for his drink he chose iced plain tea.
After receiving all his orders, Wijaya went towards the counter where he would give his order to the madam.
"Madam, I want to order" Wijaya's voice was heard calling the madam who was currently making food.
"Okay, wait a minute" the madam's friendly voice was heard.
Not long after, the madam came out carrying two plates of fragrant fried rice.
"Order two portions of spicy fried rice" a sour voice was heard calling the customer who ordered the food.
Not long after, a male student came and took the order.
"Thank you for waiting young man, what do you want to order?" Asked the madam with a friendly smile.
"I want to order 1 plain fried rice, 1 spicy fried rice, 1 spicy fried noodle, and one boiled egg noodle with additional rice.
As for the drinks, two iced oranges, one iced sweet tea, and one iced plain tea" Wijaya mentioned all his orders.
"Wait a minute, let me count first ... .7+8+8+10+3+3+2+2= 43 dollars" the madam mentioned the amount of Wijaya's order.
Handing over a 50 dollar bill to the madam, Wijaya soon received the bill and his change.
"Here is the bill and this is the change of 7 dollars, please wait a moment for your order" replied the madam once again in a friendly manner to Wijaya.
Then Wijaya immediately returned to his table, and handed over the food order receipt to the madam.
Looking at the receipt, Rudi said "you're right, this price is cheap, compared to others, in my area one portion of fried rice is already 10 dollars" replied Rudi in response to the receipt handed over by Wijaya.
(The price in the city of Detos tends to be cheaper compared to the price in the city of Nusa which is the capital of the Patih kingdom, where Wijaya's university is located)
Not long after they immediately replaced the money that Wijaya paid for their order.
As for Wijaya who saw the price on the receipt, he also agreed with what Rudi said, that this price was similar to the price near his house.
Moreover, when he saw one portion of boiled noodles with additional eggs and rice priced at 10 dollars, Wijaya had to say that it was cheap and affordable.
Added to the price of Rudi's sweet iced tea drink which was worth 2 dollars, it was really cheap.
He still remembered that in the future, one glass of sweet iced tea would cost more than 5 dollars.
(Please do not equate the dollar in the story with the price of the dollar in the USA, the value of the dollar in this story refers to the nominal value of the Rupiah in Indonesia, the use of dollars in the story is only to facilitate the story itself.
The conversion of values meaningful to the author in the story is as follows, 1 dollar refers to = 1000 rupiah, and so on 2 = 2000, 5 = 5000, 10 = 10,000, 20 = 20,000, 50 = 50,000, and 100 = 100,000)
While waiting, the four of them then chatted about where they should buy the course books that their lecturers asked them to complete.
"So have you decided where you will buy the books?" Rudi asked Wijaya, Irina and Lily.
"Of course I'm in the university cooperative," replied Wijaya.
"I don't know yet, but maybe in the university cooperative too" replied Irina.
"Where to buy books, it's easy to determine, but the question is when do we want to buy books? Do you want to buy them together?" Lily asked while answering Rudi's question.
"I'll buy them tomorrow," Rudi answered after he thought for a moment, thinking about what Wijaya said in the previous class, about there being limited supplies in their university cooperative.
