CHAPTER 6.2
When Mike left my room, I suddenly thought, a lot has really happened in my life. In my life I have been with Esra under one roof for three years. After that, I still could not come home again. But I graduated from high school. And that's where I met Jen and Karmi.
FLASHBACK...
The week had passed that short-tempered guy was with me in the same house. We also talked, we just pretended we were not together in the same house. If there is a collision, they will not just speak so that nothing negotiations will take place. I also agree with what we talked about. That it’s good, I can do what I want to do without anyone’s opposing me.
One morning, I did not realize that daddy was here at home. He was not accompanied by anyone else, only his driver.
"Dad? What came to you to have a visit?" I was shocked.
"Yes Triah, I just brought here your belongings for your admission this Monday. I have also transferred you to your new school." Daddy said that made me think confused.
"Did mom and Trisha know this, dad?" I'm worried about this, maybe because of me mom and daddy will fight again.
"Don't worry, she told me that she will not interfere with what I will do for you, all she has is-" he paused.
"That she can't see me. It's fine dad, it's hard to accept that mom really doesn't like me but… I know the time will come that I will accept the fact that mom doesn’t like me." I continue to say what he wants to say.
"I'm really sorry, Triah."
"Dad, let's not talk about that anymore, let's just talk about where will be my new school. Is it private or public?"
"Because your mom said, don't let you in private. So I enrolled you in a public school, and I also explained to the school that you made a late transfer because you want to study at their school, don't worry. I know you can catch up on their lessons because you are smart." dad cheers me up.
I also, think that even though my mom and my twin and are not okay. Dad is here for me. Even though I knew he could give me very little.
"Thank you for cheering me up dad. I will do my best so I can graduate." I promise dad.
"Of course hija, so you’re transferred to Stone National High School because Esra also studies there."
"W-What?" I repeat to dad what he said maybe because I just heard it wrong.
Suddenly the arrogant man appeared on our side. Tsk!
"I'm studying at SNHS, I'm in grade 11." what can I do, I thought none of us will talk? How plastic?
"Okay," was my only answer, so that dad wouldn't wonder why I didn't responsive as before?
"Hija that is also better so that I am at peace that you are safe with Esra. He has been a worker in our fishery for a long time so I brought him here with you. And of course, how are you two here? Do you agree?" dad asked innocently. I was just depressed because of the thought that was happening between the two of us.
Is it okay to be in the same house together but it seems like no one is willing to start a conversation just to know more each other. So, what now?
"It's okay dad." I lied.
"It's good, Esra... you don't have a problem with this kid of mine? You take care of her if she does something wrong. Reprimand her."
"Dad,"
Dad laughed.
"I have no problem with Triah, she is kind and also good at housework." dad was happy.
"Wow, my daughter really inherited my diligence. I'm glad that was how you observed Triah, Hijo." tsk! You’re plastic Esra.
"Dad, it looks like it's getting late. All right, let me talk to your driver and send you home." I will change the topic. But it is also true what I said that it will be late so it would be better if Dad went home.
"Triah is right, Mr. Mondejaro, it's better if there is still light that you will go, especially the road is dangerous now when it is night. There are many helpless people and you could be trapped." the man on my side agreed. Tsk! When daddy goes home. I will really scold him. If you can act like that well!
"Oh, okay, good luck with your entry this Monday Triah. I know you can do it. And don't ever go hungry. You seem losing weight now. Were you eating here? There is a lot of stock in the refrigerator. Eat," Daddy reminded me. When someone reacted to my side as if choking.
"Don't worry Sir. If it's just about food maybe. That's what Triah will never forget, isn't it Triah?" there was something grim on his face. When dad really comes home you are really dead to me Esra.
"Dad, just be careful when you come home. Say hello to Aling Milan and Greta! I really miss them." I just changed the topic again because I was disgusted by the hints of it with me at home.
A few minutes later I waved to dad because the car was being pulled over. And when I could no longer find the car I started talking to Esra.
I was not looking at the young man.
"You know. If you were just teasing me. You should have done it. You look like a fool! The plasticity you have was annoying. You think who you were kind of in front of Dad. You said earlier that Triah is still kind, she knows how to do housework ... nye ---" you are really annoying Esra! I have a word here! Then I didn't talk to anyone! I hope you die! Grrr!
I shuddered in annoyance and decided to lock me in the room. And I might even kill a fool!
CHAPTER 7.1The days fly so fast, and it's Monday. It means this is going to be my first day in my new school. And how I wish my first day would be okay. I'm now already done and packed. I'm just waiting for someone to be with me to guide me to SNHS.
CHAPTER 7.2We are going to enter this public school like my old school, just private. But here I can also say that the entrance is clean and organized because there is a security guard to open for each student."How fat.”"Yeah wait, why is she with Ikee? How she related to him?"
CHAPTER 8.1There are curious students who were looking at us fighting, between me and this girl whom I don’t know the name. And I couldn’t tell if what creature is she. It seems like she belongs to a monkey’s family. Her eyes were round, which will almost pop out. You can add the nose that as if being shy to all who could see it, like not be able to come out of the cave bowing to everyone, and almost you can’t see the holes in it. Gets that? If not… fine! She has a flat nose!I glared at her that no matter how I want to achieve big eyes just to stare at her, but still, I couldn't make it.
CHAPTER 8.2Especially now that I remember what mommy and Trisha were saying to me before they kicked me out of the house. It's like the weight of feeling that people think of me in that way. What will I do? Just oppressing so as not to aggravate? Will I just lose myself just to say I'm pity? Will I just be humble myself just to say I am a good student and child?I do not want that. Because the truth is, when you are kind, everyone will bully you. When the
CHAPTER 9.1Since Krissa was already friends with me, she offered me earlier that it would be better if we sat next to each other. And since we are in the first row, in short, we seated at the end of the column chairs occupied by Krissa, because she’s tall and I am fat. So I also agreed with her to swap chairs with a student next to her before. Fortunately, the classmate did not appeal."There! The chair is fit for you!" Krissa teased me with lively applause.
"Ma'am, you are wrong. I just want to say that I can't walk there because there are two women blocking the way. I can't get in." Jen and Karmi glared at me. But it was too late because ma’am immediately peeked at them. On Mrs. Dominggo, they all had the eyes of fellow students."Miss Velasco and Miss Resalda! What are you doing there on the floor? Don't you have a chair?"They slowly stood up and turned their backs on the old woman and they make us glaze over.
Chapter 10.1"Why are you here?" I asked him first when we were in the hallway of this school. "Going to eat?" he replied weakly still following me.I turned to him because of his answer.
CHAPTER 10.2"Triah? Oh my! Triah is awake! Jen! Krissa! Oh my! Oh my! Oh my!" Karmi was immediately confused and attended to me as if what kind of illness I have now."Are you okay Triah? Are you in pain? Are you hungry? Thirsty? What are we going to peel off with fruit? Just tell Triah! We'll make you okay right away!" Karmi's endless teasing. While Jen and Krissa just covered their ears with both hands.
