Every Wednesday, I got a civics
lesson from Mr. Sudibyo. He was considered as the funniest teacher of grade XII
in SMA N 1 Karanganom. The students in class XII IS 2 were enthusiastic with
him so that we always paid attention to his explanation.
One day on Wednesday, as usual,
he made our classroom became so cheerful. He explained about the principle of
democracy and the implementation in our country as well. He also added the
procedure of doing protest.
In the mid of his explanation, my
attention was suddenly broken by something. I lost my pen which was the only
one I brought to school. I was panic. I moved my chair a bit, and tried to look
for it under the chair by using little gesture so that Mr. Sudibyo did
realized. Yet, I cannot control my gesture. I bowed and searched my pen under
the chair with ignoring Mr. Sudibyo’s explanation.
And then,,
“Hey, Cah Mbutoh, sopo jenenge?”, asked him.
He knew that I was a Butuh’s
villager but I thought he did not know my name, so he just called me by the
name of my village. So, I presumed that he wanted to know my name first and
then asked me about the lesson.
“Uli Tri Utami, Pak?” I answered
with full off confidence.
All of my classmates laughed at
me, even my friend besides me did horselaugh. I got confused, and my face
turned into the stupid face by being open-mouthed. Did I make any mistakes?
“Aduh aduh, lha koq Uli Tri Utami tho”, Mr. Sudibyo still kept
laughing and responded with that question.
Heh? I must have had a silly
thing. Then I asked my friend who were still laughing until crying.
“Hey, Sit, kenapa he? Salah pow jawaabanku?”, I aksed.
And then she answered, “Ya Allah Mi, tadi kowe ditakoki sopo jenenge
Menteri Penerangan jaman Soeharto. Lha koq jawabane malah Uli Tri Utami”.
You know what, the public (red:my
classmates) assumed that I was making a joke because I did not know the real
name of the Ministry of Illumination. No, that was not true. I really did know
what did Mr. Sudibyo mean. I just heard that he asked my name. Kwkwkwk.
Oh my God. How terrible I was! I
thought that was the most ashamed day of my life.
