Today's match schedule that Anthony participated in was completed. All morning until noon he had sweated quite a lot, now he had to go somewhere. Since the match was already disturbing his concentration, Anthony had to meet in person to find certainty. Finishing cleaning himself from sweat, Anthony looked fresh out of the shower room. Left his sports shirt in the locker room, he should have washed and dried it immediately in the laundry room as usual. But because felt that other matters were more urgent, the sweat-soaked T-shirt was thrown into the locker and then forgotten. Anthony grabbed his phone, looking for a number. "Shit!” He slammed the locker door. The number he was looking for would be useless, unable to contact. Then Anthony picked up the outgoing call on Sihan's behalf. “Do you know where Carol is?” “Where she used to go, I think.” Sihan answered without much question. Then the phone call ended. Anthony's footsteps were steady towards one place, the only place when
While the discussion had already emerged, Anthony planned to meet William to ask about the continuation of Nicole's case handling during yesterday's exam. William had not told him at all what happened after that. And if he did not urge William, don't know when the news can be heard to his own ears. The place that was always the destination when Anthony was looking for William's whereabouts was none other than the student council room. ”Will, I have something to talk about―" as soon as the door opened, Anthony saw a crowd of people inside which the gaze was clearly directed towards him. “Oh, you guys have a meeting?” William immediately stood up, walked straight and took him out, quickly closing the door. “Can you change your habit of barging into my room? Here, we are at school!” The loud protest response that Anthony got from his friend was too dramatic. “Okay, I will remember that for another time." so soon accepts his fault when William gets angry. “What do you want to talk
In a house of this big size not many people look like yesterday's party, Jeanne was with some workers in the house. The reason for this may be that from morning to evening Anthony and Arthur were out of the house with their respective activities. “Come in, sweety... Don't be shy. Just make yourself at home, in the near future here will be your home too.” Take Jeanne to Elyn. “Huh?” Jeanne's cheerful and happy face was too hard for Elyn to refuse nor to react with. “During this time, Uncle is still in the office and Anthony might still be cool playing with his friends.” Jeanne took Elyn to the lounge. “Oh, have you had lunch?” “Yes Aunty, I was at school." Elyn answered clumsily. "Then tea and light snacks will be fine.” Jeanne offered a treat. “Just relax here, dear... I'll be right back.” “But don't bother to–" Unfortunately Jeanne left her too soon to possibly hear what she said. Then while Elyn waited by herself, Anthony had just returned home. The first thing he did when s
The day was getting late, but this afternoon Elyn had gone through this road to return home. Then she was caught red-handed by Anthony's Mama on the way and taken back to Anthony's house together. Is this really the bond between Elyn and Anthony that leads them to fate, because too many coincidences have happened so the girl gets bored and starts to feel annoyed now. “Can you drop me off here?" Elyn asked when the car that drove her began to enter the highway. “Are you sure? Here?" Anthony knows Elyn's house is still a long way from here, because this place has just come out of the residential neighborhood where he lives in. “Just do as I say.” She was too lazy to explain again to him how many times already. He did like what she said. “If that's your wish...” Elyn gets out of the car. “Then tomorrow you can also pick me up at the same place, here.” Anthony looked at her who during the time of getting into the car with him did not even look at his face for once. “The time? You're
“How about a lunch break later we eat in the cafeteria together?” it was the content of the short message Elyn received from James a moment ago. Elyn immediately gave an okay answer without thinking. After changing schools, James was the first to invite Elyn to eat together. The school canteen even has dishes like a star hotel buffet but not all SOPA students come there. Maybe it's because the tastes suit them or for different reasons like health nutrition control. Therefore the school cafeteria is never crowded to cause queues. “I saw this morning that you came to school with Anthony. Have you been living together?" Asked James with an innocent face. “Cough!" Elyn choked on her food when hear the question. Elyn frantically examined the situation to the left and right of the surrounding area, luckily no one around them could hear James's words. “Calm down, have a drink..." he handed her a glass of water which he hadn't had time to drink. “That―" what should she tell him so as
Elyn and Sihan were just the two of them doing duty after school. Elyn deliberately chose this time to ask Sihan to tell her, feeling that their surroundings were enough to guarantee privacy. In a garbage recycling bin that is cornered from the entire school area. Elyn believes none of the other SOPA students were intentionally there, except the two of them who were indeed on cleaning duty. Elyn could read Sihan's panicked expression that was clearly visible on his face. She just wants to know the story behind the four old friends and the research club. Not to cause new problems, let alone aggravate the situation with bad intentions or make Sihan's position cornered. “Thank you, I appreciate your honesty that you have been willing to tell me. I promise our conversation will be secret." She didn't want to make Sihan feel bad and regretted telling the story. That's why Elyn ended their conversation here. Sihan was still uneasy, unable to trust Elyn completely. It's all written in hi
Anthony and James went to talk in a more private place, as previously said this place is very well known to them. That's because this place used to be the headquarters of the gathering of four old friends. But the atmosphere between them now leaves no room for nostalgic memories of their past together. It's true what James thought when he received Anthony's call. Something is wrong, the look on Anthony's face also supports his speculation. James is increasingly convinced Anthony is angry with him although he does not know for what reason. As far as he knows or recall, he has done nothing to upset Anthony, and during this time they have never been in conflict. “I don't know how close you guys are, but what you did today was a big mistake." Anthony's tone sounded cold and heavy, probably because of the emotions he was trying to suppress. James's face changed. “Mistake? Tell me more clearly so I can understand. Why are you so mad at me?" Anthony called it a big mistake, obviously Jame
After escorting Elyn to home, Anthony did not immediately return home but left for another place. He sent Mark a text message asking, “Do you know where Tommy is?” Then not long, a reply message from Mark came. “Lounge pub, Tommy’ gang used to gather there.” Then another consecutive message came in still from Mark. “You need us to come?" Mark already knew Anthony asked Tommy's whereabouts was no possibility other than Anthony looking for and intending to come to Tommy. Anthony sent a message. “No, I'm on my own.” “Okay, let me know anytime." Mark replies, meaning he's always ready when Anthony needs him. Anthony felt more confident in his decision after talking to Mark. He can't feel constantly agitated like what happened today. Tired of having to feel constantly alert and can only calculate, suspect or wait for Tommy's movements. He felt it was better to go to Tommy himself first and deal with him before the situation lost control and something bad happened. Anthony arrives a
Love With Flaws Part 6Since they started working on the task together, there was actually something Jennie wanted to ask Matthew. But felt doubtful if it was right for her to do that. What if his feelings for her were a thing of the past. That means she doesn't deserve to ask and bring it up again.“You know the letter you left behind," Jennie thought of a way to find out the boy's current feelings. The only way she thought of it was by bringing up the subject of the letter he had written to her.Matthew flinched, but his mind was busy thinking. “Letter? What does she mean is a letter in a glass bottle? So she took the letter I left behind, is it?" doubted in his heart and never thought Jennie would talk about the letter he wrote. “You took it? When?" he asked.“When you no longer come there.”again he wrestled with the thoughts in mind. “Even she knew that I was always there and stopped coming back. But we never met!” The two never met because if Matthew was there, Jennie would tu
Love With Flaws Part 5Love, Jennie does not understand what love is. But it isn't the feeling of love that she felt for father and mother as well as her sister–Bella it is also love. Jennie's love for people who are precious and very important beyond herself. Not wanting to lose those people and always wanting to be together is a form of love for them. The love that Matthew declared was not like that, is it? What each love has a different form. He said about the proof of love, let there be time to speak, the part she could not understand what he meant in the letter. In every letter that she receives, Matthew always leaves an unsolved mystery that makes Jennie feel curious even more than that. It's not just a question of how she describes it.“Did you read that letter again?” Egy rebuked her fellow classmate.“Huh? It’s just..” Jennie can't excuse being caught red-handed. Not once did she read the letters but repeatedly at every opportunity. The more she read, the more get lost in th
Love With Flaws Part 4 On the way to the club room Jennie saw a football club that was training on the field. her footsteps stopped, then stood there watching. Matthew might have been one of those who was training in the middle of the field, thought her. From the beginning if Jennie had a desire to find a young man named Matthew, the sender of the letters. she could easily find it. Jennie has enough clues about Matthew's identity and whereabouts. 1) Matthew is Lea's cousin, 2) Matthew close with Alec, 3) Matthew was a soccer member, 4) Matthew is a boy from nextdoor class. With all the hints of a dot, Jennie chose not to do anything. So Lea and other friends think Jennie is not interested in him. So is the conclusion that Matthew can draw from all the collected pieces of fact. When it feels like there is no hope anymore and the opportunity to meet, why now Jennie and Matthew must cross paths as if they had been destined. Jennie finally got to know Matthew for the first time. It's ha
Love With Flaws Part 3 Lea is more often outside the room if not during class hours. Finding Lea's whereabouts was like looking for a stray cat, difficult until Jennie was exhausted. “I got another letter.” Jennie immediately conveyed her needs as soon as met Lea. “Then why?” Lea reacted flatly. “I want to ask for your help.” Lea's face looked uncomfortable. “It makes my position difficult... Matthew's my family and you're my friend. I want to be neutral.” “No wait! Don't get me wrong.” Jennie refuted Lea's remarks quickly. “Oh, thank God then... I thought you asked me to tell you to turn him down.” “No. It's about the content of the letter–huh? Wait! What do you mean by rejecting?” Jennie asked, not understanding. “What happened to the letter?” Lea dodged Jennie's question. It was clear to her that Jennie did not seem to know the purpose for which her cousin had sent a letter. Jennie gives Matthew's letter for Lea to read.“Does Matthew want to see me? But he didn't ask me t
Love With Flaws Part 2 It wasn't hard for Matthew to figure out what the girl's name was. The difficulty is what he has to do next. Suddenly, it was not easy to approach her. This may be Matthew's momentary sense of being attracted to Jennie. But he didn't have the slightest bad intentions. Right now all he wanted was to greet her, talk to her, get to know her. Matthew wanted to leave a good impression on Jennie. Matthew is too hasty. Or Should he wait. Waiting and doing nothing is the same as not starting at all. To be honest Matthew is not the type to be easily captivated like this. In his world until this time he only has one interest in something is football. Love for the opposite sex, of course, exists but that is not his priority . Love is a part of life and Matthew believes its own timing will come. At first Matthew wasn't the one on purpose about Jennie, not at all. Something in his heart that felt every time saw her, encouraged him to take action. The sooner he does, the
Love With Flaws Part 1 Maybe it was fate that brought Jennie to this place. The school that Jennie had never really thought of before would be spent for the next three years. In this place there is nothing she is looking for, but there is something that wants to take care of, she protects with all heart, all her soul, as best she can. Jennie didn't want to let a little thing escape her attention anymore. Don't want to lose more time of togetherness between siblings and family. Jennie will begin to collect small fragments, make good memories, live a life without regrets towards her loved ones again. Don't want to make a mistake a second time. The road ahead of her that must be passed is not easy, very heavy, Jennie fully knows it. But that's life, no matter whether or not the path has been chosen. rather live that choice and make it so that it becomes the right choice. Because constantly thinking the choice is correct or not is just a waste of time. No one will know until they try it
After receiving approval from the school, the official Research Club was formed thanks to Alan's help rearranging their proposal. Anthony and old kids are busy managing their new club. Starting from cleaning the empty room that they will occupy as a club room. The room, which was not occupied for a long time, was filled with dust, old cobwebs, mice and cockroaches. It also cleans up the stuff that is piled up there. They have to work extra hard to get it done. “Anth, where is James? He's a member of the club too, why not come?" Carol said annoyed to have to work hard, feeling a lack of people who should be able to share and lighten the task. “Do not know. Never mind, just leave him alone for a while." Anthony doesn't understand anymore. Since his return, his strange attitude has persisted for a long time. Sihan came back from the teacher's room with William, carrying bottles of drinks for his friends that he accidentally bought in the cafeteria. Thanks to the inclusion of Alan joini
It's not just bad news at school. Anthony and the old kid also had to accept the unpleasant news that William brought that afternoon. That their club proposal has been rejected or has not received the approval from the principal. In the middle of meeting the four, they gather at basecamp after school. A Lot of discussion going on. Anthony asked angrily. “What is the reason?” William was no less harsh in attitude. “Your proposal has too many flaws, has no purpose, weak arguments, and is not interesting. It's not enough to make the principal feel confident about giving permission, of course.” “You–what needs to be so honest and cruel to say it." Anthony is injured and causes criticism. “I'm telling you so you can learn a lesson. For what it's worth, I'm sweet. Do you want to give up and forget your dream club?” “Of course not!” While the two men had a heated argument, the remaining two people, James and Carol who were also present there, remained silent but were dizzy from hearin
William was used to coming earlier than class time. He felt more comfortable spending time alone in the student council room. Being in public makes him tired of having to constantly put on a suave mask, maintain an attitude and so on. The student council room was an escape for him to breathe freely at school. When the door of the student council room opened, it turned out that someone was already there waiting for his arrival. surprised to find that Anthony could also come to school in the morning. The problem that made that one friend come so early and was willing to wait for him like this, so if Anthony wanted something, nothing else. “What brought you to see me so early was a matter of the club?" William asked unceremoniously. “That's one of them, and there are several others." Anthony's been sort of a room-steward of course which is usually the role of William sitting there. “What?” Anthony's face lit up. “What about James?” He was so sure William heard something from James be
