As pretty as a Butterfly
Chapters 16. Feelings of compassion and concern

In Office.

After getting an explanation from Michael and Jelita, the campus finally closed the case. They also asked all students to delete the videos and photos that have been spread so as not to expand widely outside the campus environment and to suspend students who are entangled in the spread of video and violence during one weeks.

The campus also asked the video's disseminator to clarify to everyone the misunderstanding that occurred in order to clear his good name and also apologized to Michael and Jelita.

"I'm sorry, Michael ... Jelita, we're guilty. We also apologize to Mr. Dean and Ms. Rosi for making a rowdy campus. We are willing to accept any punishment" said one of the senior students who recorded the video.

They approached Jelita and then conveyed something. "Yes, please forgive us. We really don't know if you're Miss Mary's daughter."

Jelita nodded and tried to smile. "Yes, I've forgiven you."

They were happy, and said. "You are kind as your mother ... Oiya how he is, it has been more than six months since Miss Maria fell ill we have never met her again. It turns out that Miss Maria has stopped working here and you're the one who took your mother's place, you're so amazing. Sorry once again because we didn't recognize you and we stupidly bullied you all this time, Jelita."

Jelita lowered her head and replied, "Mother is still the same condition, she is still not improving ... It's okay, thanks."

The senior student was concerned, then said. "I'm sorry if it makes you sad, but is your mother's pain so bad?"

Jelita fell silent, then began to shed tears and said. "Mommy had a severe stroke and until now I have not been able to bring my mother to the hospital, the loan money for the cost of medical treatment from this campus is also not able to pay off." Jelita then cried.

Ms. Riana and the other lecturers also felt moved, they then tried to calm Jelita. They felt they had to help Jelita remember her mother's kindness to everyone while she worked here.

"We will help the treatment of your mother Nak, do not cry, we will raise funds as soon as possible to relieve the cost of treatment of Ms. Maria," said Ms. Riana wipe Jelita's tears.

Those in the room nodded in agreement and began to mobilize fundraising through the senior students.

"True Jelita, just think of this as our guilt-redeemer. We'll raise funds in this campus neighborhood and tell her that you're Miss Maria's daughter, so no one can run you off anymore."

Jelita wiped away her tears, "Thank you so much for everything. Then please come back to work."

"Okay Jelita, don't worry about everything. Work diligently and vigorously, you should also smile a lot." Bu Riana stroked Jelita's face and smiled.

Jelita nodded then stepped out of the room and went back to work. Michael who has since heard the conversation became compassionate. There was a feeling of guilt in the depths of his heart.

"How evil I am, to want to expel him who is struggling to raise money to treat his mother. I'm not really a hearted human being, but who's Maria's mother? Why do they all know him and respect him so much?"

Michael plans to find out about Jelita's mother. "Well, I'll ask Miss Riana after the class is over" Michael said, walking out of the room.

When walking to class, Michael saw Jelita who was talking to Mr. Budi. He stopped and listened to them from a distance.

"Jelita, these are your glasses that fell in front of you. Somewhat cracked the glass and there is also a broken handle. But you've tried to fix it even though it's not perfect but try it you use, it can still be used?" ask Mr. Budi while handing over the repaired Jelita glasses.

Jelita welcomes her glasses and tries to wear them. Jelita smiled while wearing her bad glasses and directed her gaze in all directions to make sure if the glasses were still able to make her view clearly or not.

"It can still be used Mr. .. it still looks clear, thank you."

Jelita thanked Mr. Budi and asked permission to return to work. "Sir Budi, Jelita back to work first huh. There's still a lot left unfinished."

Jelita then looked down and looked at her torn clothes, "It's okay, just the shoulder part that was badly torn."

"Don't Miss Riana just borrow her suit for you to wear?" ask Mr. Budi.

"Jelita has returned Sir, Blazer Bu Riana is too good and looks very expensive. Besides if used later work can be dirty, afraid of being damaged too."

Mr. Budi muttered, "Eh yes also."

"Yes sir, yes Jelita work first yes. Let's not be late again, kasian mother alone," said Jelita.

"Ya Jelita," replied Mr. Budi.

The Michael Class.

Arriving in class, Michael was then crowded by his classmates.

"Mikes. We're all here very worried about you, lucky that the video and the photo were just a mistake. Those seniors have also admitted their wrongdoings, we know that you can't possibly do such a lowly thing and that you might as well want to do that with a lowly woman like her," said Floren.

"True Michael, you'd hate that Ugly so much that you might want to do something dirty like that. We expected the video to be a prankster act" Sandra said.

Floren grabbed Michael by the hand, but Michael quickly walked away from him and said, "Can I sit down first? once I sit down you can interview me again."

Michael looked at Floren who was smiling bitterly at him then broke through the crowd and then sat down in his chair. Classmate Michael then approached Michael in his seat and began to ask back their curiosity.

This handsome man was only indifferent to all the ravings of all his classmates, but he was made to be disturbed when one of his classmates said, "I'm sure that Ugly framed Michael and then told the senior to film him. Yes, if not where it could be such a coincidence."

They agreed with one of the students and it made Michael feel upset.

"Bug!"

"Derr."

Michael hit the wall beside him hard and caused the classroom window glass to instantly shake violently.

Michael looked at the crowd and stood up. "You have no ears! is that speaker broken or your ears are in trouble. I've explained in detail how it happened and it was all my fault that had pushed Jelita away. And those seniors have also admitted their mistakes, then why do you not seem to believe me. Even you dare to resort to violence that I never liked to innocent people!"

Michael then leaves his class, and before he leaves, Michael says something that pisses everyone off. "Enough with all this, from now on stop pranking the girl again. I don't want you all to come near me and never expect to be my lover either. I've been so fed up with your attitude of always pretending to be nice and pretentious to care in front of me!"

Michael then dropped out of his class and left his classmate still standing.
