"Why are you two together?"
I whispered in Alliando's ear after making sure mom was in her room. To be honest, I was really surprised when I saw the two of them go home with both eyes red from crying. But that's not what surprised me, what surprised me the most was, they seemed to be talking casually as if nothing had happened. Just imagine! Though I thought they would at least be awkward with each other!Alliando who was currently washing the dishes seriously as if it was a very important state duty glanced at me briefly, before turning his attention back to the plate in his hand again,
"Hmm, by any chance?"He said nonchalantly while shrugging his shoulders, making me instantly feel annoyed and pinching his stomach in exasperation."Ouch!"He groaned in pain, although from his expression I could tell he was just faking it."Come on! Can you not answer my question properly and correctly?”
"Well, are we working on sch
"Well, they must be really busy..."Andreas immediately responded to my words with a nod of his head. Currently we are standing by the window, looking at Siena and Alliando who are busy working on something in the field with Mr. Thomas and the other field trip committee members. I laughed when I saw Siena and Alliando start fighting again. I don't know what they were arguing about, even though a few seconds before they were just fine."Don't they look good together?"I subconsciously turned my face towards some of my classmates who were looking out the window too. They also looked at Siena and Alliando.“Yup, I feel that way too. Wow, if they really were dating, I'm sure they would make a phenomenal couple in the history of this school!"They started laughing and nodding their heads in agreement. Even some people who are members of the Alliando fan club agree with the idea that Siena and Alliando become lovers. They said, if it was Si
I stopped right in front of the door, furrowed my brows when I didn't see the bouquet of flowers that Uncle Jackson usually left in front of my house. Since I begged uncle not to wait in front of my house, he decided to change his apology technique, which was to send a bouquet of flowers with an apology letter tucked in between the flowers. Usually I would take the flowers to Aunt Sharma's house, one of the florists not far from my house. While the letters I kept in my desk drawer. Sometimes I take the time to read the letters. Almost everything was about how sorry he was for his past stupidity. And each time I read the letters, my suspicions of Uncle Jackson gradually diminished. Starting from 100 percent until now only 50 percent left. Uncle Jackson's seriousness when he was waiting in front of my house and all these letters and bouquets of flowers seemed to indoctrinate me to believe he wasn't a bad person. But of course I tried to control my mind. So far I haven't found any othe
Hmm, I think he's been a little weird these past few days..I'm currently watching Alliando who is sitting on his chair. With the preparations for the field trip finished, he and Siena had more time to relax. But, instead of relaxing, Alliando seemed to be thinking hard. His face was a little sluggish and he often daydreams that he didn't hear anyone's words. Anyway this is completely different from his usual self. Well, is something bothering him? I tapped my forehead, trying to think what might have happened to him that he was so 'empty' like this. But unfortunately my head couldn't find any reason that could be the cause of Alliando's strange behavior!"Hey, you're not going to the cafeteria, Sha? Come on! Let me treat you!”I immediately raised my hand and shook my head, rejecting Andreas and Siena's invitation. Then trying to find an excuse when they asked why I didn't go to the canteen. Of course I feel happy when someone treats me. But n
Is it true that the culprit is Uncle Jackson?If so, then what does he really want? How could he do something so cruel like that? Wouldn't his actions be too extreme if the reason was just a simple one?I massaged my aching head before looking back at the front, or rather at Aunt Ratna's house, which was still tightly closed. Even after many times I tried to meet her, I still didn't get any result. I don't know how many times she kicked me out with various methods. Starting from dousing me with water to calling security to drag me away. But, I still don't want to give up! I am really desperate and need all the information Aunt Ratna knows. If Uncle Jackson is really a bad person like I thought, then it would be dangerous for Alliando to keep looking for the culprit without knowing anything. If that uncle was really that bad, he definitely wouldn't hesitate to repeat his crimes and hurt Alliando!"Oh my god, I beg you, I hope this time Aunt Ratna will t
I walked with unsteady steps, down the corridor with all kinds of mixed feelings. Angry, sad, shocked, and at the same time… disappointed! Even though I've always thought that Aunt Donna is an ally I can trust! But she turned out to be one of the culprits? I suddenly felt disgusted when I remembered her sad expression upon learning of my mother's condition. Don't forget the tears streaming down her face that day. Who would have thought that it was all a charade? Well, she should have gotten an Oscar for her amazing acting!“I have absolutely no idea who that man was, but Donna was helped by someone to commit her crime. The two of them came up with the perfect plan!”"How did you know all that?"“I overheard their conversation on the day Richard died. After that, I try to find more clues. However, my efforts almost got caught by them, so to prevent Donna from getting suspicious of me, I decided to keep myself hidden!”
"So what are we going to do after this?"Siena moved her legs which she plunged into the river. The moonlight which reflect off the surface of the water now began to ripple due to the movement of her feet. My eyes stared at Siena for a while before staring at fireworks that have completely run out.“Wow! I am truly amazed by your stamina. Even after such a hectic activity during the day, you're still able to do a lot of things without taking a break!”A smile formed on the corners of my lips when I heard Alliando's sarcasm to Siena.“Oh! Sorry if I have a lot of stamina, unlike you who are very easily lethargic! You seem more suited to be called a 'elderly teenager', don't you?"And of course as usual, Siena wouldn't let Alliando mock her. A few seconds later, they started fighting just like kindergartners. Even Andreas and Demian could only rub their foreheads when they saw the two of them fighting. Maybe I'm the only o
“That girl really is such a cheap girl!”I looked at the two women sitting beside my desk. They were whispering while throwing scornful glances at Nami, one of the new students who was very popular. She has a beautiful face and figure, not to forget her friendly and fun demeanor, making many people immediately like her even if it is only with one meeting. But, isn't there a saying of wisdom that even the best people in the world still have enemies? Nah, that is Nami. She probably has a lot of fans. But apart from fans, she also has some people who don't like her. An example is two women who are getting more and more excited to say bad words to her."I heard she often changed boyfriends""Duh, even I've heard she likes to do one night stand!""Huft.."Sighing, I put the headset to my ear, playing music at a loud volume. Well, I can still hear their voices, although not as clear as before. But it's still better t
I didn't expect that my reunion with Nami would happen sooner than I thought. Even though I just managed to gather information about her in hopes that I can devise a plan so that we can meet again and become friends like in our previous life. Well, it looks like she's already one step ahead of me.As soon as Nami finished introducing herself, Siena started to nudge my shoulder and whisper about Nami's face which looks a lot like the girl we saved that night. Not only Siena, Andreas and Alliando also showed the same reaction. It's just that Alliando looks calmer than the two of them. Maybe he already recognized Nami at one glance.I just answered all of Siena's questions with a nod of my head. My eyes are still focused on Nami who is now sitting a few tables in front of me. And with her friendly character, she immediately got along with her seatmates. Ah, I really admire that character. Because if Nami wasn't like that, it's a little impossible that we could have
