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
A week later the field trip that Sihan had said when in the club room finally came. Preparation is needed, it does not seem to need a lot of things other than personal items. The school has facilitated full service for the convenience of SOPA students on their field trips. The location chosen by the school on this field trip is far from the city, there are no crowds, the area is surrounded by nature. Fresh air, wide grassland and other beautiful panoramas. But all the grace of the universe is not the concern of SOPA students, they are only interested in the social life of the elite of SOPA's large family sphere. That's what Elyn's been witness to since they got there. “Hey-hey! Did you know? The Resort we're staying at is still Anthony's family business.” "Yes, I've heard it from people at home. His family finally managed to take full ownership and management." Elyn accidentally knew that from the talk of the SOPA girl who likes to speak behind others for sure. Another girl answer
Carol's lost some personal things, she thinks the last time she saw it was on the bus. So the girl was forced to go back to the parking lot to find it, lucky it was still in the same place as the last time she saw it. Then not far from her stand, a car made a smooth turn to parking. She knew who the owner of the car was but didn't expect she would see that person on occasion like field activities outside school. That made her stay watching from where she stood. “Oh! Is that you, Carol?” William got out of his family's car. It seemed that he had just arrived escorted by the driver, coming separately from the entourage. “I didn't expect to see you on our field trip.” It was nice to meet Carol there, he thought. “I give those words back to you." Carol's curt reply has become her trademark. Carol has long been unhappy with the crowd unless forced to attend school, therefore when school had events outside like now, usually she will be absent. Only with the research club members who w
About eight months ago, long before Elyn changed schools and got into SOPA. Carol felt confident in the final decision she made after careful consideration. thought long enough to finally muster up the courage. Everything she needs is already packed, and brings it. There wasn't much Carol could pack because it would be a burden. Just a backpack, clothes on the body, some cash that has been withdrawn from previous bank savings, and a cellphone that has been replaced with a new number. No, actually Carol bought a new phone and while the old one she deliberately left remained in the bedroom. Carol's cell phone rings, a call comes in on the number she used to use. On the phone screen displays the name of William Daniel from a saved contact number. Carol grabbed the phone to reject the call, then put the phone back on the bed. had to hurry, step out of the room. Her hunch said someone already knew this plan from the incoming call just now. Carol doesn't have much time. People at home o
Hope the situation can still be managed just by the two of them. That's what William expected about an hour ago. But now he and Sihan are on the boat still following Carol with close supervision. What to do now, how to persuade and take Carol home with them. Seeing William's face with a long turmoil, Sihan finally made a confession that he had so far kept to himself in mind. “When we were on the way, I contacted Carol's family and until this second I still exchanged news with the chief.” What Sihan means by chief is Carol’ family worker as head of house butler. William's eyeballs widened hearing the news, Sihan decided without talking to him first. No, Sihan had spoken repeatedly but William did not agree. “When the ship pulled over in the harbor later, Carol's guard was waiting to pick her up . I think that her grandfather ordered, and the chief will be there too.” Sihan ended his confession. “What!!” The second time for today William was shocked half to death by Sihan. “Why did
Elyn is getting ready for dinner time. Before thats he wanted to clean up, change clothes, then she decided to go back to the room. Elyn thought the room was empty because as far as she knew Carol was also outside the room. But it turns out that once come inside, what Elyn finds is Carol sobbing in the corner of the room, crying. Or is she mistaken? because Carol with her image so far does not give the impression of a weak and fragile girl, moreover, which is identical to crying. Elyn slowly approached. “Erm,” Carol forgets that the occupant of this room is not just herself. It may be too late to hide the tears, but she can still fortify herself by turning around. Hiding from Elyn's eyes. “Wait." The first thing Carol said to her roommate. Actually what she wanted to convey was that she needed a second to calm herself, to manage her heart and weep her tears. Elyn paused, a moment of silence. A little hesitant, she asked, “Are you okay?” “No need to worry about me..." Carol's vo
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
