"Can we help you, sir?" the waitress asked.Daffa picked up the menu on the table and asked his friends, "What would you like to order? Let me treat you."Rudi nudged Yoga with his elbow and whispered, "He's asking us."Daffa then handed the menu to Bayu and said, "Order whatever you want. I'm feeling generous."Bayu took the menu from Daffa and started placing his order. "Spicy shrimp, please.""Come on, order more than that. At least three dishes," Daffa instructed."Wait, are we sharing this?" Bayu asked.Daffa nodded in response.Bayu then passed the menu to Galih. "Um, I'm not sure what to order. I'll just go with what you guys are having."Daffa simply stared at him, and Galih quickly made a choice. "Green mussels with Padang sauce, it sounds good."Galih handed the menu over to Yoga. "I'll have the large-sized sweet and sour carp and the large-sized sweet and sour crab," Yoga said, nudging Rudi with his elbow. Rudi pointed at something on the menu.Yoga then passed the menu to

At 4:00 PM, the students began leaving the school, leaving only Daffa, Bayu, Yoga, Rudi, and Galih in the classroom. They could hear a loud commotion approaching their classroom.Daffa and the others turned their heads towards the classroom door and saw Gozali, Dika, and their friends standing in front of the class. Rudi got up from his seat and walked towards them."Why are you here?" Rudi asked, approaching them."Oh, just felt like dropping by," Gozali replied with an arrogant tone."If you have no business here, then leave!" Rudi demanded, trying to drive them away."What if I don't want to?" Dika challenged."Are you asking for a fight?" Rudi responded."Do I need to repeat myself?" Daffa chimed in, calmly walking past them with his bag, ready to leave.Just as he was about to reach the front door, Gozali grabbed the back collar of Daffa's uniform."Where do you think you're going? I haven't given you permission to

Bugh!!! Bagh!!! Bugh!!!Daffa and Rudi exchanged punches, drawing the attention of the other students in the class. However, Daffa clearly had the upper hand over Rudi. Rudi had been knocked back multiple times, and there might be a few fractured bones."Senior!!! How are you so strong?" Rudi exclaimed, then kicked at Daffa.Daffa blocked his attack and tried to counter, but Rudi didn't give him an opening to strike back."This kid is getting better at speed," Daffa thought to himself.But for some reason, Rudi suddenly fell silent and knelt before Daffa."What kind of aura did I just feel?" he wondered.Daffa patted Rudi's shoulder and said, "That's enough playing around. Class will start soon."Daffa returned to his seat and put on the alma mater that he had taken off earlier."But wait! Which faction do you want to choose?" Galih asked, running towards Daffa.Daffa stared at Galih with a sharp gaze. Rudi then p

Daffa took off his graduation robe and placed it on the table. He walked slowly towards Yoga, folding his shirt cuffs. "Did you bring your friends just to challenge me?" Daffa asked, raising his eyebrows. "Hopefully not," replied the male student with tied-up hair. His name was Galih Dermawan, but everyone called him Galih. "Then why did all of you come here in a group?" Daffa asked, furrowing his brow. "My class is located here!" Galih retorted, looking annoyed. "But I didn't see you yesterday," Daffa replied, pretending to recall. "I was sitting behind you!" said Galih, clearly annoyed. "Ah, so it was you who insulted me yesterday," Daffa said, with a hint of irritation on his face. "So, what do you want?" Daffa asked. "As a member and also the class representative of Class 10A Office Administration, I want to give you a choice," Galih offered. "If it's not important, I'll kill all of you!" Daffa threatened, putting his hands in his pants pockets. The students behind Yoga

Chapter 4 - Confronting the Wimpy ThugOn a bright morning, Daffa went about his daily routine as usual.Breakfast, shower, putting on his school uniform, and then walking to school.But today something bothered him when he saw a group of thugs harassing an old man who was selling packed rice by the roadside.At first, Daffa ignored the situation and continued on his way to school.But suddenly he heard a sound of something falling right where the old man was selling the packed rice.Bagh!It turned out that the bicycle used by the old man for selling had fallen over after being kicked by one of the thugs bothering him.Unable to ignore it, Daffa approached the old man to help him."Let me lift the bicycle for you," Daffa said as he lifted the old man's bicycle back into its original position.The thugs watched what Daffa was doing and then demanded protection money from the old man."Where's this week's protection money? Do you want me to throw away all your merchandise?" one of the

"Allow me to introduce myself. My name is Daffa Setyawan. You can call me Daffa," Daffa said, breaking the silence in the classroom.All the students who were previously chattering fell silent upon hearing Daffa's cold voice."What's with that voice?" asked a boy sitting at the back of the class. His name was Yoga Dirgantara.Daffa remained silent, his gaze piercing through the entire class."Is that all?" the female teacher asked."Yes," Daffa replied curtly."Alright, you can take the empty seat next to those three students over there." The female teacher pointed to three vacant seats.Daffa glanced at one of the seats, where a girl was sitting. Then he looked at another seat, where a tough-looking boy was seated, giving off a delinquent vibe.Daffa smiled and chose the last seat, next to a boy who had a nerdy appearance. One could say he was an otaku."I thought he would sit with Rudi. Turns out he's sitting with the otaku. He may have a big physique, but he's actually a nerd," Daf
