    In a small school on the outskirts of town, lived a bright boy named Rizky. He was a shy boy who preferred to focus on his studies rather than standing out amongst his friends.

    One day, Ms. Sari, their Indonesian language teacher, told Rizky about the school's speech competition. The theme was 'Overcoming Fears and Achieving Dreams', a topic close to Rizky's heart.

    Rizky was a member of the school's debate club, but he never participated in the speech competition due to his extreme nervousness. His friends knew he had a talent for speaking but he always pulled back.

    Ms. Sari encouraged Rizky to consider participating, as she believed that he had the potential to inspire his classmates. This made Rizky reflect. 'Maybe this is a good opportunity to face my fear,' he thought.

    With the help of his friends, Rizky began to prepare his speech. He practiced over and over again, improving his voice intonation and body language.

    Each time he felt nervous, his friends encouraged him and reminded him of his potential. This gave Rizky a newfound confidence: a belief that he could overcome his fear.

    The day of the competition arrived. Rizky stood on the school auditorium stage, in front of a crowd of students and teachers. His heart pounded, but he felt a newfound confidence.

    As Rizky began to speak, he felt something incredible. The words he had prepared so carefully flowed smoothly. His facial expressions showed calmness and confidence.

    When Rizky finished speaking, the school auditorium erupted in applause. His friends and teachers stood up to show their appreciation. Rizky felt relieved and proud of himself.

    He realized that facing fear is difficult, but with support and courage, he could achieve dreams he thought were impossible before.

    From that day, Rizky no longer saw fear as an obstacle, but as an opportunity to grow and overcome himself. He continued to participate in various school activities, inspiring his classmates that we can all surpass anything if we dare to try.
