Melly actually doesn't care about the behavior of noisy class kids because her current target is Eva. But the girl's ears were hot when she heard the lyrics of the song sung by Iqbal. Do he mean to be satirical? Why is Melly jealous of poor people anyway? Funny!
"Shut up!" Salsa glared at the boy, making Iqbal and his friends raise their eyebrows, looking at the girl strangely.
"Huh? We like it, our people want to sing," said Iqbal representing the voices of his friends. It's really fun that the group of boys in this class provoked the emotions of the Qotsa gang. Moreover, there is Iqbal here. As class president, the boy is brave enough for his members. Why are he scared? His parents are also wealthy businessmen.
"Don't! Don't be jealous! Don't be jealous!"
Almost all the boys in this class sing with lyrics like that while screaming. "Azeek!!"
Salsa's hands clenched hard looking at all of them who were getting worse. "You villager!" she snapped emotionally.
Eva covered her mouth with the back of her hand trying to keep from laughing. She shook her head. "See? Class kids also know that you guys are jealous of me," said Eva arrogantly while raising her chin. "If you're jealous, you don't have to show it off. You can't see it."
Dina glared angrily at that. "You?!" she growled pointing at Eva's face with emotion. Especially Melly whose face was getting redder.
"I'll tell you, so you'll realize! A country girl and an introvert who lacks socialization like you doesn't deserve to be student council president. Who do you think you can hold that position, huh?! As long as you know, not a single Taruna Bangsa student voted for you. You got that position because you were appointed directly by Mrs. Rani. So there's no need to pretend to be in charge here!" Dina snapped fiercely.
"You introvert!! A homebody who can't socialize pretends wants to be student council president. You think it's easy? Do you think you can do it?!" Salsa snapped.
Very funny. Even though Eva was just silent, they were already ignited by their own emotions. When Eva was not yet the student council president, it was as if Eva and the Qotsa gang did not know each other and never cared about one another. After Eva was promoted to student council president, they seemed to be deliberately looking for trouble. So he thought that all this time Eva had been silent about their arrogant behavior because Eva was one of the children who was afraid of them? Just dream there!
Melly crossed her arms in front of her chest. Her gaze lowered to look at Eva who was sitting on her bench. "Sounds like you're really proud to be student council president to dare to fight me."
Eva snorted lightly. Unmitigated, with one blow Eva hit her desk using the Physics module which was right on the table, causing a loud crashing sound that startled several people. Eva's lips pulled up to form a slanted smile seeing these three self-righteous girls showing looks of shock that couldn't be hidden.
Eva stood up from her chair and pushed the object away from her touch. "Since when was I afraid of you huh? Never!!"
The gaze that was originally directed at Melly, now shifted to Salsa. Eva glared at the girl. "And you?! You don't have to conclude as you please about people who have introverted personalities! Can't live to respect each other's personalities, hmm? If you're looking for sensation, you don't have to be like this, devil! If I say extroverted kids like bitch keep leaving the house -"
Eva paused to neutralize the breath that was roaring with emotion. "How are you feeling?" she continued again, but this time her intonation faded.
The soft touch on her arm Eva felt. Of course Uma did it. The girl whispered softly voicing Eva's name hoping that her best friend's emotions would subside. But unfortunately Eva brushed off the hand. She bent down with both hands resting on the table. Her sharp gaze pierced the retina of Dina who was standing right in front of him.
"You think I want to be student council president? You already know I'm appointed directly by Mrs. Rani!" Eva sounded tired. Already too fed up with the stares of people who seemed to blame her when Eva became student council president. They think Eva will? Even Eva herself doesn't know why the position layout between herself and Adam could change.
"You understand?!" she screamed again full of frustration.
Eva swallowed hard. "It's crazy. If you feel like you can be student council president, I'd be happy to give my former position so that all Taruna Bangsa students will respect you. Oh, yes. So that you can get to know the Kompeni members," she said, raising an eyebrow.
Everyone already knew that Melly was crazy about Arta. The girl has kept a crush even since becoming a new student. Maybe the reason she's always looking for sensations and thirsts for attention like this is so she can be popular so she can be equal when side by side with Arta who is the most famous and most feared guy in Taruna Bangsa.
Seeing them silent with their faces flushed and their fists clenched made Eva burst out laughing. "The question is can you do it, boss?" More deliberately suppressed every word in her question.
"You have a lot of excuses!" A boy in this class replied sarcastically. He couldn't stop herself from watching their debate. His name is Bima. That guy is the security student council and is Salsa's friendzone. "If you really don't want to, you can refuse, right? You hypocrite!"
Salsa's smile broke when she heard that she was being defended. "Bima!" call her coquettishly. For a moment the girl's expression was gloomy. "How can she refuse? She's a school maid."
The words that Salsa had just made were met with laughter from almost the whole class. Melly nodded in agreement with that. "Oh, yeah, I forgot. Scholarship students are really school maids. Can't afford to pay it!!"
The insult made Eva's eyes water for a second. She is so sensitive when insulted about the economy like this. Because it was all out of his control. Being an orphan was not her desire. Having a destiny as a cake seller widow's child is not her wish. Achievement can Eva try. But about the economy? Eva can't help but accept her life like this for now.
In the end Eva clenched her fists as hard as she could, venting all her emotions for this. Holding back the tears that were about to fall. Until a voice interrupted and succeeded in diverting the attention of the whole class.
"Excuse me! The entire student council in this class is expected to gather in the student council room. Now!"
He is Adam, the deputy head of the student council who is predicted to be the previous student council president. In fact, almost all Taruna Bangsa students demonstrated the management when the official inauguration was held. They insisted on Adam becoming the student council president, but unfortunately Mrs. Rani's decision could not be contested. She has unanimously appointed Eva as student council president.
The guy entered the most wanted ranks from grade 11. His handsome stature and face, and is the son of a successful businessman made him have a myriad of fans in real life and social media.
***
This is the first time the student council has held the 2023/2024 service period meeting. Of course, with Mrs. Rani as the supervising teacher of the organization, as well as some of the student council seniors from the previous year. It contains directions and tips on how to be a good and responsible student council. Do not forget to build sharing and discussion forums to create a more exciting atmosphere because there is reciprocity. Someone asked, someone answered. Everyone is free to express their opinion without being ridiculed, humiliated, humiliated, let alone scolded.
Eva felt that although she was hated because of the position of student council president, she also learned a lot of lessons and experiences from this organization. Maybe it's okay to maintain this position as long as the hate speech she receives can still be tolerated. Even so, to be honest it is very stifling when someone refers to her as a 'school maid'.
It was enough that she felt inferior riding her bicycle to school when other friends used cars.
Feeling low when friends can boast of their father as a successful businessman who is rich.
While she? Her father is gone, rest in peace at the side of his god.
It was enough that she felt inferior standing among people who were more than herself. Should there be any more 'school maids' to come back to make her feel even lower standing here?
