Between Problems And Togetherness {part 2}

2 weeks have passed and the time comes for the announcement of the Education Orientation for new students and students. All preparations and equipment have been notified. And it is scheduled that this orientation will last for 3 days on the campus page.

The day came to start the Orientation of Education. All graduated students come on time in accordance with the announcement. As always, buckets, brooms, mop, notebooks, belpoin with bags have become a tradition every year. Hair for men only 1 cm. While the hair for women tied two braids with ribbons. They are like a newly armed soldier and a naive little girl who does not yet know the current developing models and trends. White shirts and long black cloth pants for men and black skirts for women while fantofel shoes and long black ties and bow ties are the new student symbols every year. Duty too. Writing material given by resource persons, names and signatures from senior siblings and love letters to senior siblings that we "like" has also been the final task in this Educational Orientation.

And for 3 days, it was a very tiring day and also a very special day. Because, there are many friends who are not only from Kupang City, but also from various regions in NTT also come to register at this Private Higher Education. So, in addition to Rendra friends with Virgin, he also get a lot of friends at the time of the Orientation of Education. There are some friends he is very good at, and some are not as good as he is arrogant. Rendra is also very fond of a woman during the Educational Orientation. His name is Citra Lestari. He is elegant, beautiful, kind, and it seems that he is very clever when he asks a question to the speakers about the history of the College.

Virgin is no less equal to Rendra. He also has many friends. There are he who is brave and some that he does not respect. There is a man who fell in love with the beauty and cleverness of Virgin in expressing his opinion on the subject of scholarship. His name is David Leonard. He is a calm person and likes a smart woman. He will not hesitate to tell his feelings to someone he loves. And he will not easily fall in love if not yet fulfill the conditions that he himself has set. Virgin is a woman who managed to melt David's heart and meet all the criteria he wants.



And finally, arrived at the closing night of the Educational Orientation. Everyone seemed happy with the end of the activity. And the next day, all new students, officially became a student at Private Higher Education. And they began to follow the lecture although not too run as it should. But, the Orientation of Education is not over. There is still Guidance Period (Mabim) from every faculty every weekend which is Saturday for one month. And that activity is most feared by each person. It is not too much different from the Educational Orientation. But, in this Mabim activity will be further enhanced ketegasannya so that every student is able to find his identity through the activity. But, all that will be paid on the last day of the season in the Art Performance event. The equipment is also not too much different from the equipment Orientation Education.

The activity began. And this is the first week. All the students from each faculty are gathered in their faculty and that is where the activity begins. Many of them are nervous and get sick.
One of them is Rendra. He had fainted in the field because he was not strong with the punishment given his senior brother. To the extent that he was rushed to the hospital due to disease duration relapse, which is asthma. In addition, he also suffered from stomach acid because every morning he never had breakfast. So the stomach acid increased and he had time to unconscious. Parents of Rendra came to visit with Virgin and 3 friends Rendra and his girlfriend Citra. They are so worried about Rendra's health. So the doctor suggested that Rendra should be examined at the hospital as well as blood tests and also ronseng. Because, doctors want to know what happened with Rendra's heart.

Day started the afternoon and Virgin, Citra and the 3rd friend Rendra took leave of the house. A few minutes later, Rendra is conscious and he does not see his friends again.
Rendra was examined at the hospital for 7 days. On the 8th day, the doctor started to examine Rendra's blood and radiate Rendra's body and it prevented him from attending classes and also not following the activities of Mabim. And the results were out. That, Rendra had to undergo heart surgery in Jogja because the results of X-rays said that the heart of Rendra there are holes that must be operated immediately. Hearing these words, Rendra and her parents feel sad because their only child is suffering from the disease and must be operated on.

The next day, Rendra sees his mother and father talking on the porch of the hospital room. After a few minutes the father Rendra and his mother came in and spoke to Rendra. That next week exactly Tuesday, October 11, he must go to Jogja because the doctor has given to his parents a referral letter for surgery. And his father added that he had to move to Jogja soon because his father did not believe in the campus while Rendra was facing him. However, Rendra did not want to move because he really loves his college place and his friends. However, his parents remained on their stance. And Rendra also stick to his stance that he will not go to school in Jogja.

The next day, Virgin came to see the state of Rendra still lying in the hospital. And talked to him about the events they faced during the season of Mabim. He states that, Shandy and his friends, they talk about Rendra's ugliness in senior siblings. That Rendra was deceiving them with his illness. And also he says that if he is right with his illness, then when he comes back and fainted, he will trouble all people and this activity will not run according to senior siblings expect. Not quite up there, senior brother also punish us for the recognition that has been delivered Shandy and his friends and almost all the friends who used to love Rendra now they no longer think of you as a friend. Instead they say that Rendra is a friend who feign sick and therefore we are punished. Hearing these words, then Rendra was crying. However, Virgin is always there beside Rendra and empower Rendra not to think about the problem. He will always be there for Rendra even though everyone is hostile to Rendra. However, Rendra faces look very hate and disappointed over the treatment of his friends.

On October 10, Rendra told his parents that he decided to move and study in Jogja. Her parents were very pleased with her decision. And the next day, Virgin escorted Rendra to the airport with her parents. Virgin looks very sad to hear that Rendra must move to Jogja. Rendra entrusted a letter to her that at the time of the Art Performance, she wanted to have Virgin read it in front of their friends. He also advised that he begged forgiveness for their inconvenience. From the look on Virgin's face, it appears that she can not let Rendra leave. Because for him that Rendra is one very special friend, both in difficult circumstances and in a happy state. However, Virgin accepted all of Rendra's decisions and allowed her to go for surgery and also attend school there. With the hope that he can recover and undergo the course properly.

The last day of Mabim and performing arts performances began. Everyone seemed very enthusiastic about the talents they were going to show. And then came Virgin to perform. He performed his talent of singing. She sings a song from Jason Mraz titled I Will not Give Up. All that hearing greatly enjoyed from Virgin's appearance. At the end of the song they all cheered and applauded Virgin. However, Virgin still stands on stage and asks the committee to give it 5 minutes to convey something to her friends. And the committee gave it time. And what happened was, he opened a letter given by his friend Rendra at his request at that time. Virgin also read it and the contents of the letter is like this:

For my dear friends ...
How are you guys on this day? I hope you guys are fine because I know, God always accompanies you wherever you are. Do you enjoy Art Performances this evening? It must be fun. hmmmm ... if only i exist, i will surely enjoy myself and surely will be very happy to see you all perform at night this day.
Have you forgotten me? I know this is difficult, but I want you to enjoy this Guidance to the end, without being disturbed by my illness. The ones like you already know that I have stomach acid and are in the heart of the hole and have to be operated on. I was referred to a public hospital in Jojga. Because the hospital equipment here is not too complete. I want to force my body to follow the activities of Mabim it. But, come to think of it that I could have fainted when I was tired and it would make this activity delayed and useless. I'd better go to the hospital and have surgery in Jogja. Actually I hate hospitals, but what can I do?
I believe, from among you feel that I am the bearer of the problem. The real problem does not exist, instead it comes into being because of me. I apologize for all this. I am willing to sacrifice for you so that you should not be in trouble again which makes you sad and disappointed for me. I move does not mean I hate you. I moved because besides having surgery, I want to save you from the problem. I was hoping that by the time I get out of this campus, the problems associated with me that keep you all going into it are liberated and resolved.
Again, I apologize to all of you. If there is a wrong word or in a relationship that is less pleasing to you guys, I am human apologize.
Thank you for your kindness to me and to those of you who have brought and carried me to the hospital. I do not know who you are, because I'm unconscious and unconscious. I have nothing to reply to. However, let God reward him according to his will.
For Image, thank you for being my good boyfriend. I know you are very clever. Help the needy. Maybe when I get back you're with somebody better than me. And I'm sure you'll be happier. And permit me to let one of my deeds to you in store in your heart.
For all in particular Shandy and friends. Thanks for the good feedback that I am very troublesome. Now I have moved. No longer do you scold me and hate me again. I'm sorry to have bothered you and your friends so much.
And for Virgin. Thank you for reading this letter to my friends. I can not repay you. However, as a friend, I always pray for you in every effort. Do not overtake me here. You may come here if you have achieved your goal as a doctor. Although, when your name announcement is in the last order of 80, trust me that you will surely be ahead of them and you will be far more successful than the one who once preceded you. Your tears that once it will be a pearl in the end.
And for all of you. You have 79 people left now. No more out of this campus. If anyone wants to get out of this campus, grab a medical bachelor degree then get out. That's my request.
We will meet again even though you have forgotten me. However, I will always remember you and always remember your goodness. My prayers will be with all of you.
Greetings from me.
