The Destiny I Chose
Chapter 1

This year was my first year of attending this school, actually this kind of thing was common to me. Like traveling, there are so many schools that I entered, and hopefully this will be the last school.

My name is Natali Derbyra Wijaya. Putri lives Wijaya family, my family is very well known in the field of business, even my parents' company entered into 3 influential companies in Indonesia.

If you look at it from the outside, our family photo is very harmonious, but it is different from the reality.

"Natali the breakfast is ready, let's eat together." there was a screaming voice from below calling my name.

She's my grandmother, I think of her as my mother. How could it be, yes because since long ago mother has not lived with us,

"Yes Grandma, I'm downstairs."

"Today's your first day at school right, don't make trouble" said the grandmother reminded.

"Grandmother take it easy." replied Natali.

"Owh yeah, where's grandpa? So he's driving me?" ask Natali again.

"It seems so, just wait." replied the grandmother.

Not long after the grandfather came down from the 2nd floor, exactly maybe just out of his room.

"Woah look at my grandson, don't you look very mature now" said the head of the Wijaya family with a look of his face that seemed to be sad.

"As for the cake, don't tease me, I know that in Grandpa's eyes I'll always look like a kid." Said Natali who looked annoyed with her grandfather.

There was a sound of laughter coming out of the mouths of Natali's grandparents.

"It's already gone, it's too late" said the grandmother.

"Just relax, we still have a lot of time, Natali" said the grandfather to the grandson. Natali simply nodded in agreement with her grandfather's words.

"Oh grandfather and grandson are the same." said the grandmother who was accustomed to the nature of her husband and grandchild.

"Alright, all right, let's go, we will be watered with chili water" said Natali while reaching for her grandmother's hand to shake hands.

"The basis of this child." said the grandmother while giving a light punch on Natali's shoulder that made the owner grimace a little.

Natali and her grandfather set off for their new school, which happens to be a new school year.

"I went in first ya kek." said Natali after shaking hands with her grandfather.

"Be careful." replied his grandfather. Natali only smiled thinly at his grandfather's words.

Natali walks into her new school, sees the school plan, and then walks into her classroom.

Arriving at the class, Natali immediately took a seat in the back, she very much avoided the crowd. Natali who is very friendly at home is very inversely proportional to Natali at this time.

Not long after the bell rang, all the students of this class entered, and the last one to enter was the guardian of this class.

"Well children, introduce me to Siska's mother who will be your homeroom teacher for the next 1 year, please cooperate with her" said Siska's mother kindly introduced herself.

"Alright mom will do absent as a sign of our introduction." continued Ms. Siska.

Then Siska called out the names of the disciples one by one. After that the introductory activity was continued until the break bell rang and Siska ma'am came out of the classroom.

During the break Natali only spent her time in the classroom, other than because she did not like the crowd she was also not hungry, so she did not go to the cafeteria.

"Hey, you're a scholarship boy right" said one student who seemed to come from a rich family.

"I.ii.iyaa." replied the student stammering.

"Already Sandra, pity, look at that face of compassion" said the friend of the schoolgirl named Sandra. But it is not a sentence of defense, but an insult. Then they all laughed satisfied.

Natali was just silent without responding, such things were common in her school first, even this was nothing she thought.

"Akh." shouted the student because he got a slap in the face, and suddenly made the whole class look at him.

"How dare your dirty hands hold clothes." Said Sandra who seemed to be very angry because she was touched.

Just as Sandra was about to slap the schoolgirl again, suddenly a hand blocked her.

Natali, it seems like she's so fed up that she's taken action.

"Stop it" he said in a cold tone, his hand still holding the hand of Sandra who was about to slap the schoolgirl he was bully.

"Let go of my hand, don't interfere." Sandra said as she shouted, maybe she was very upset that Natali was blocking her hand.

Natali did not budge, even she did not look scared in the slightest.

"Well, you don't know who I am, just look if you don't let go of my hand, I swear I won't let you go until you get out of this school."

"Junk." said Natali slowly.

"What did you say? How dare we talk to me that way!" Snap Sandra.

"Do your word, and I'll reward you many times over." Natali said firmly without fear, then she threw Sandra's hand strong enough to make the girl fall.

"Aww.." cried Sandra in pain.

Natali turned around to face the schoolgirl who had been in the bully.

"Stand alone, don't expect people to help you" he said, then returned to his seat.

"It sucks." said Natali, bowing her face to the table with her hands folded.

This had just been the first day, and he was already feeling uneasy in this place.

Too long to hold back the upset, without realizing Natali was asleep, but when she was almost sound, the screams of the students filled her classroom.

"Aish" said he who then raised his head, and sure enough, there were so many students in his class who were crowding a student who seemed quite popular.

The student walked over to the empty chair beside Natali.

"It doesn't look like it's going to be easy" Natali said in her heart.

The first Haru of the school that he thought would be quiet without interruption, turned out to be all beyond expectations, it seemed like he had to be patient enough until graduation later.

****

"Hey, wait.." said a schoolgirl chasing Natali, Natali who felt called to look back.

"Owh, Hi, thanks for that" he told Natali.

"I'm not helping you, so there's no need to thank me." Natali replied.

"Euh whatever it is thank you" he said again. Natali did not care about it, she continued walking until she exited the school gate.

"Let's befriend... Thank you, be careful on the road." that's what Natali is with the student.

"Who wants to be his friend" Natali said.

In front of the gate the grandfather had been waiting for him. Apparently before returning home Natali had sent a message to grandfather to pick him up.
