UNLUCKY
Ch.469 - Letter of Recognition
"Indeed, education in all schools is different from the past. Especially for our school that does not adhere to the principle of 'Evacation of the cup when it will receive new knowledge' so that we can be inferior and not influenced by pride because it has more knowledge. At Gallagher, we adhere to the principle of 'Add another cup when the previous cup is full' isn't that funny?!" said Mr. Egan makes the atmosphere calm because of the honest laughter of students who feel that it is true.
"That means Gallagher is better than any other school" the audience said.
"Yes, right! that's a sign that we're not arrogant but continue to make room for knowledge instead of limiting ourselves or with humble pretentiousness" said another audience member.
"I'm not disfiguring our school. But just want to remind you because after this soon we will be separated because there are those who continue in other schools or there are those who continue in Gallagher. Whatever it is, we'll be apart. The point ... what I want to say, knowledge will not run where. We don't have to run to chase him. As long as we go to school, knowledge will come after us. I don't want you to remember the school days just with the difficulty of studying but because it's fun to learn to get new knowledge every day." The addition from Tan that makes the applause even more lively than before.
"Thank you Tan .. You must be INFJ huh?! Or the ENTP?!" said Mr. Egan seemed to be guessing on his own making laughter explode from the audience.
Tan simply smiled and folded his letter then retreated to the same line as his groupmate as it was finished.
The fourth turn was Osvald who had only advanced one step from the line. Not too in the middle of the stage, "I should have gone first before Tan, right?!" osvald said with a laugh, "I was overwhelmed because Tan was so good at what he said. He said it would be boring but like the president's speech alone .. hahh ..." with a voice that was shaking from nervousness but Osvald could still make jokes.
"I'm probably more of a direction like Teo who's going to tell himself. This time it will really be very boring to hear unlike Tan just lied .." said Osvald who made Tan laugh.
"It doesn't feel like we're all going to graduate from SD. Next year we have officially become Junior High School students, even if there is a Junior High School who receives anyway ...." Osvald was still making jokes, "Thank you I say to all of you who have accepted me as a friend. I never imagined a child like me could be friends with you guys .. the great man of the future." continued Osvald who apparently was very liked by the audience because it was accompanied by praise.
"I signed up to Gallagher because I heard that Gallagher didn't communicate too much with other children because they were just busy studying. Because actually I am not someone who is easy to socialize." said Osvald was denied by the audience, he said Osvald was one of the most friendly students.
"But when I just entered the form, it got in trouble because of Tan, Teo and Tom. I didn't think the first day I had three friends who had the same face hahaha. Plus The Honey Bear Gallagher ... Cain ..." The audience laughs at the familiar nickname, "Because of him I became like everyone else just on the first day of school at Gallagher. What Tan said about our strict school learning system could make students who want to enroll will retreat but actually attract the attention of someone like me who is less social. I thought, the elementary school period will only go through quietly and continue to learn but it turned out to be unexpected. All this time I was lonely, I had no friends, but the first day of school I had a lot of friends. Boring right?! this is my story .. lonely boy, the Ugly Duckling who turns into a Goose. Thanks ...." The end of the word from Osvald who still wants more from the audience but Osvald shortened it because it can not be the center of attention for long.
"Wear goose clothes if graduation is later!" yell nosy Audience.
"A good idea! I'll find him!" sahut Teo strongly agreed to go forward, making Osvald have to bring Teo back.
"Why are you busy?!" Osvald clenched his teeth while speaking.
"You ...." Osvald regretted using the Ugly Duckling in his letter.
The fifth turn, Demelza stepped forward almost to the front of the stage, "Actually I want the last one because there is nothing exciting about my story. But it turns out Felix didn't even write anything ...."
"Huhh?!" The Three Twins and Osvald looked at Felix with glaring gazes. But Felix is relaxed when Tan, Teo and Tom panic if only Felix would say nothing.
"You won't like to hear me talk because you're bored. For almost six years you must have been sick of listening to me talk and now you must give up listening to me chatter again." Demelza blatantly admitted the facts about her. The audience also gave a response and an expression that did not like the advance Demelza spoke.
"I won't speak at length so just hold on for a minute ...."Demelza was sensitive to see the faces of the spectators, "Say the house is the most comfortable place for us but for me the school is the most comfortable place. He said the family is the ones who spend more time with us. But to me that family is not my parents that I can only meet once every 6 months or even once a year. The one who spends a lot of time with me is you .. to me you are that family. Someone who is comfortable for me to talk to and someone who spends a lot of time with me." Demelza's words surprised the audience even the group friends who were with him on stage, "For me Gallagher is home and you are family. Of course it's just my feelings .. I'm sorry if I'm always telling you bad things. That's because I don't have a conversation partner at my parents' house. Thank you for calmly listening to me speak." The end of Demelza's words still left the audience speechless with a blank look. Not expecting Demelza's feelings about them.
"Applause!" said Mr. Egan because the audience was still silent silent and did not give any response.
Felix came forward because it was now his turn, while listening to the response about Demelza's words just now through the mind. No one thought Demelza thought that. Feelings of guilt continue to be thought of but there are also those who think it is just a show from Demelza alone.
Tan, Teo and Tom are nervous because Felix really does not issue a letter or a piece of paper.
"You didn't tell him?!" ask Osvald.
"It's over!" suhut Three Twins compact.
Long Felix just stay quiet in the middle of the stage. It wanted to be said to be nervous but its relaxed attitude did not say so. Felix just kept staring at the audience and was still silent.
"Felix?!" because it's been a long time waiting for Mr. Egan to reprimand as well.
