Kaluna continued to remain silent as she and Estefan were on their way to Kaluna's parents' house.Actually, outside of school, there was no problem for Estefan if he wanted to get to know Kaluna further as the person who would be matched with him. However, as long as Kaluna didn't know that Estefan and the man her aunt introduced her to were the same person, he felt it would be better if he kept his mouth shut for the time being."What's the teacher's minus?" Kaluna asked, opening the conversation because he couldn't bear to continue drowning in the silence between himself and the homeroom teacher."Not too high," Estefan replied as he continued driving. "I don't know, I haven't had my eyes checked in a while.""Oh..." Kaluna nodded in understanding and did not ask any more questions.Estefan himself was still reluctant to open up too much to one of his students like this, so he preferred to keep quiet and stay focused on driving."How quiet your house is," Estefan commented when he
It didn't take long for Kaluna and Estefan to get the results of the post-mortem tests at the hospital."This... can I open it now, Sir?" asked Kaluna hesitantly as she and Estefan were leaving the hospital. Her hand trembled as she grasped an envelope with the hospital logo."Open it," Estefan told her, nodding his head.For a moment Kaluna hesitated, what if she turned out to be no longer pure because of her own school teacher?Taking a deep breath, Kaluna opened the envelope from the hospital.Kaluna tore off the adhesive carefully, after which she pulled a piece of paper from it carefully and read it carefully.Estefan glanced at his student who was sitting beside him flatly."Why are you silent?" asked Estefan as he focused on driving again and left Kaluna busy fighting with his own thoughts."Ah, that..." Kaluna hung her sentence for a while."What's the result?" Estefan asked again. "Or are you going to let me find out for myself from reading the post-mortem letter?"Kaluna hel
"Why do you have to bring up Dewangga, Aunty?" asked Kaluna with a hardened face. "I've broken up with him, I don't want to see Dewa again."Ola frowned slightly, she was somewhat surprised by Kaluna's response when she heard Dewangga's name mentioned.'That guy must have unforgivable sins,' Ola thought to herself."Luna, I apologise. I didn't ... maybe I didn't know you were that hurt by Dewa ..." Ola said hurriedly. "I remember you used to date him, right? I'm sorry if I'm wrong because you didn't want to tell me your love story."Kaluna turned her face away."No Aunty, it's not my fault." She shook her head. "I don't care about Dewa or Rara anymore.""Rara?" repeated Ola with a furrowed brow. "Ah yes! It's been a while since Rara has been here ....""Aunty, I told you that I don't want to hear Rara's name either." Kaluna took a deep breath."Luna, you really don't know what happened between you and those two." Ola admitted. "But at least now you know that you have a problem."Kalun
Kaluna was acting while waiting for the maths lesson to end. Now and then, Estefan looked through the window to see if she was still standing where she was."Got it?" Estefan went straight to Kaluna when the maths class finally ended. "Next time you're late again, I'll make you stand in the middle of the schoolyard."Estefan raised his hand and pointed to the centre of the schoolyard until Kaluna turned her head and followed her gaze."It's hot, Sir!" Kaluna commented."That's why you don't act so much," Estefan said flatly. "You're already in the third grade. Can't you just not bother me?"Kaluna just grimaced and chose to slowly walk away from Estefan who was still standing."You really like making Mr Reyvonda angry?" Kiki commented when Kaluna appeared in the classroom. "Wonder.""I don't know," Kaluna said, shrugging her shoulders. "I didn't want to go to school, but ... I'm already in, so I'll just go."Kiki just shook her head at Kaluna, who did not have the slightest feeling of
Kaluna arrived home looking rumpled and tired even though she had travelled home from school in the car that picked her up."Tired, Luna?" greeted Ola when her niece appeared in the kitchen. "Here, eat first.""Yes, Aunty ..." said Kaluna unenthusiastically. "I want to graduate as soon as possible. I'm tired of going to school like this ....""After that, get married?" chirped Ola, smiling seductively at Kaluna."Aunty, I'm not interested in getting married." Kaluna shook her head. "I just want to work, be a career woman."Ola sighed."You'd better marry a successful business owner if you want an instant way to become a career woman," Ola said, being very careful not to mention Dewangga's name because he was obviously still a schoolboy and also Kaluna's ex-boyfriend."My mind is not that short, Aunty. It's easy," Kaluna complained while one of the household assistants prepared food for Kaluna."But at least if you already have a fiancé, you won't be confused about finding a mate anymor
"Who is that, Aunty?" asked Kaluna in a whispered voice when they invited into the house."Did you forget?" replied Ola as she joined in the whisper. "That's Rey, who I'm planning to marry you to....""WHAT?!""Shhhh!" Ola hurriedly smothered Kaluna's mouth with her palm. "Why don't you say it out loud, Luna?"Ola grimaced and quickly removed her hand from Kaluna's face."Welcome!" Ola stood gracefully at the door as Vivian and Rey passed by."Thank you," Vivian said. "How are you, Luna?"Being greeted in such a way made Kaluna gasp softly and turn her head shyly towards the woman."Fine, Aunty ..." Kaluna replied haltingly.The meal went well and one week later; the event changed to Vivian's residence.I don't know the exact purpose, Kaluna thought."Rey, you go talk to Luna first." Vivian turned her head towards her son who was standing still not far from them.Kaluna also turned her head and squinted."Why are you looking around like that?" asked Vivian's son Rey. "It's rude."Kalun
While sneaking around like a thief, Kaluna walked slowly towards her homeroom teacher's car, after which she looked into the open window to make Estefan surprised and ...."Come on, Mr Rey ... eh?"Kaluna covered her mouth with her hand when her eyes fell on the most handsome boy she had ever seen in her life.Even more handsome than Dewangga, her most beautiful ex."How come ...?" Kaluna stammered, her eyes narrowed at Estefan who stared back at her with a lazy and cold expression mixed.At least, Kaluna thought it was Estefan."What?" the boy replied defiantly.Kaluna fell silent with her mouth clamped shut, even his voice sounded exactly the same."You ... er ... you're Rey, right?" pointed Kaluna, reflexively raising her finger and almost touching the handsome face in front of him. "Aunt Vivian's son?""Don't point, be polite." The man swatted away Kaluna's finger.Kaluna's mind became even more raging. Even more so when the guy in front of her lifted an object that she immediatel
Yohan smiled sarcastically."Halah, just admit it. I'm not surprised you're like that," he said as he capped his water bottle, then looked at Kaluna straight on. "You're not the first female student to experience it."Kaluna hurriedly turned to Yohan."Experienced what?" She asked curiously. Kaluna's brain immediately ventured in an improper direction."Going through a phase of falling in love with Mr Reyvonda," Yohan replied flatly. "That's normal, because he's admired by many students."Kaluna nodded again."You ... know a lot about my homeroom teacher," Kaluna commented quietly, with a dreamy look."I told you I'm an old student at this school, what do you think?" Yohan snapped while glancing at Kaluna. "Didn't listen, huh?"Kaluna just grinned."But ... I'suspect him," she said again while watching some students who had just appeared with various snacks in their hands. "Mr Reyvonda is the original teacher here, isn't he?"Yohan snorted softly."What are you asking?" snapped Yohan
Estefan clenched his fists."Dewa, stop! I'll do anything for Yohan!" Kaluna shouted again.Dewangga smiled and asked his friend to stop hitting Yohan."You're engaged to me," Dewangga said, looking at Kaluna. "I guarantee all parties will be safe without the need for bloodshed, that is if he wants to return to Fiona."Kaluna was silent with tears still falling."You don't have to do that, Luna ..." Yohan said in a soft voice. "You have to really choose ... the person you love ...."Kaluna burst into tears. "I can't let my friend get beaten up."Dewangga was still staring at Kaluna. "You answer now or ....""I want to get engaged to you!" Kaluna exclaimed. "But let Yohan go, Mr Reyvonda will come back with your sister!"Estefan looked at Kaluna in disbelief. "Don't be absurd!""Even if we get married, there will be hurt feelings!" Kaluna said sadly. "Fiona needs to be happy too, just like us."Estefan clenched his fists."So what?" Dewangga looked at Estefan. "If you won't take respon
Fiona burst into hysterical tears when she heard her brother's words.Dewangga held her forehead. Fiona hadn't cried in months, but Estefan's appearance had destroyed everything."I can't believe it, Estefan won't see me!" Fiona roared in a heart-wrenching voice. "What did I do wrong? I genuinely like him, I really do!""I know!" said Dewangga, his heart still hurting when he saw Fiona in pain because her feelings for Estefan were not reciprocated. "I'll force Estefan to meet you!"Fiona was still sobbing with Dewangga stroking her back."Are you still sure about setting me up with Rey?" Kaluna asked when she met Ola at the dining table. "Rey has a complicated past with Dewa's sister."Ola held her forehead. Things were getting complicated, but she felt she could still capitalise on the opportunities created by the problems between Kaluna, Dewangga, and Estefan."Why are you so impressed with Dewa?" Ola commented cautiously. "Despite his betrayal, he's a good brother. I'm not surprise
Estefan was silent after hearing Dewangga's answer."Do you know Fiona, Sir?" asked Kaluna while looking at Estefan.The ice cream in each of their hands began to melt because they didn't eat it immediately."How could he not know my sister?" interrupted Dewangga with an expression filled with anger. "He's the one who made Fiona so depressed that she had to quit school!"Kaluna looked at Estefan questioningly. "Sir, can you explain what the Dewa .... means?""I'll explain later," Estefan cut in as he pulled Kaluna away."Wait, where's your responsibility as a teacher?" Dewangga asked emotionally. "You don't know what it's like to see Fiona cry almost every day, do you?"Estefan didn't answer and kept walking away with Kaluna."Why are you silent, Sir?" Kaluna glanced at Estefan. "Dewa won't stop until he gets what he wants.""Shut up," Estefan said without turning around."I said stop!" Dewangga had to pull Kaluna's arm to stop them, and the ice cream slipped out of her hand."Dewa!"
"If you have to, just say it frankly." Rey aka Estefan drove while commenting in his usual flat tone.Kaluna glanced irritably at the person sitting beside her."I already know that I have to, why are you-Mr ...? Argh, I don't know what to call you!" grumbled Kaluna who could no longer contain herself.When she was at school, she was still able to be respectful and polite to Estefan as her teacher. However, when she realised that Rey who was sitting next to her was the one who was mated with her, Kaluna felt like throwing a tantrum that very second."Call him whatever you want," Estefan said without looking at Kaluna. "The one at school or the one at home is the same."Kaluna exhaled loudly."That's the problem!" She became very emotional. "It's hard for me to deal with someone who's used to dividing himself into two personalities, why do I have to go undercover anyway?""Who's in disguise?""You!""Disguised as what?""The teacher at school!"Estefan was still driving calmly with no
As a form of strong protest against her aunt's actions, Kaluna deliberately pretended to be busy with her school activities so that the dating agenda with Rey was not realised.It was nothing, Kaluna had absolutely no interest in dating Rey or anyone else."Luna, where are you going?" asked Ola when she saw her niece who was busy putting books into a bag. "Don't tell me you have extra lessons? That's strange ...."Kaluna grimaced and did not answer immediately."If you're not taking lessons, how come you want to play outside?" asked Ola as she came closer to Kaluna. "Do you prefer to stay at home, or is it your aunt who has the wrong idea?"Kaluna cleared her throat briefly, then looked at her aunt."If I remember correctly, my school activities are really busy ... Usually, it's the midterm exams." Kaluna explained.Ola frowned in surprise."You're ... fine, Luna?" asked Ola as she touched her niece's forehead. She felt that Kaluna's change was too sudden and drastic."Be healthy, Aun
If it wasn't for wanting to obey Ola's advice, Kaluna would have kicked Dewangga out of her way long ago."By the way, where are you going, Luna?" Dewangga asked again."Nowhere," Kaluna replied unfriendly. 'Yohan took so long,' she continued silently."I can take you," Dewangga said again. "Or do you want to go for a walk first?"Kaluna smiled sarcastically."What makes you so sure that I want to go with you?" asked Kaluna while scrunching her waist."Because you've accepted my presence and don't kick me out anymore," Dewangga replied confidently. "To me, that's enough proof that you don't actually hate me that much ....""Oh, rubbish!" interrupted Kaluna sarcastically. "I don't care about you, I could have kicked you out earlier if I wanted to. But what the hell, it's a waste of energy."Dewangga's facial expression changed slightly as Kaluna became more stern towards him."Luna, please ..." Dewangga coaxed. "There's nothing wrong with trying to fix things, I know I'm wrong. I won't
Estefan did not immediately respond to his mother's advice, especially since he could not accept Kaluna's behaviour with Yohan at school.The next day, Kaluna lived her school life as usual. She secretly carries her own mission to continue her cold war with Estefan, who gave her a warning in the teacher's office some time ago.Kaluna was determined not to leave Oasis High School even one step unless the school itself kicked her out first.That day the students were suddenly sent home early because the teachers were going to hold a meeting, Kaluna's class was one of the most excited to receive this news."Fun, go home early ....""Let's hang out in front first?""Just coffee, I'm in!"Some of Kaluna's friends were busy making fun events instead of going straight home, but she chose to listen and had absolutely no intention of joining in."Luna!" Yohan's head peeked through his classroom window as Kaluna walked by. "Where are you going?""Don't know, lazy to go home this early." Kaluna
"There's still an hour and a half to go, don't let us faint." Kaluna reasoned. "You can also lean on my back, don't be shy."Yohan certainly had nothing to lose, now leaning on Kaluna's back until their punishment ended when the break bell rang loudly."What do you say, do we disperse?" asked Yohan while turning his head. "Or wait for our homeroom teacher to tell us to ...?"Kaluna sighed. It's embarrassing to be seen by students from first to third grade like this, she thought."What is Mr Reyvonda doing here?" Kaluna grumbled. "We're going to be the subject of many students like this."Yohan glanced at the students, some of whom had already left their classrooms."What the hell," Yohan commented. "I'm not the type of senior who's pretentious, so let the younger students see me for who I am."Kaluna scowled at Yohan's confession, she leaned comfortably on his back and put on an unconcerned face when several students looked at them.From behind the teacher's office door, Estefan squin
Both Kaluna and Yohan turned their heads and saw Mr Kemal ruffling his waist from the first class corridor, making them both grin without any guilt at all."You, Kaluna! I'm going to report this to your homeroom teacher, Mr Reyvonda!" Mr Kemal continued, after which he continued on his way while Kaluna was still hanging on the gate with Yohan holding both her waists."We're doomed ..." Kaluna complained as she held on to the gate. "Yohan, what's this ....""Relax, we usually get punished too." Yohan replied without looking up, several corridor students to their right and left now began pointing while grinning under their breath at the sight of Kaluna hanging from the school gate in such a way."That's not the problem!" snapped Kaluna while swinging her legs. "This is how to get down I mean!""Don't kick!" retorted Yohan, this time forced to look up to see Kaluna. "You're like a baby in the womb ....""How do I get down, Yohan?!" asked Kaluna hysterically. "My skirt is torn again ...."
