DEAR
Episode 23

That morning Vicky was waiting for me at the school gate, we walked together towards class, then parted ways at the intersection of the corridor. I'm grateful that Gin wasn't waiting for me. I didn't see him in class either. Thankful again, huh! Even more grateful, he was not nongol in front of me, this time, no one was chattering in front of me and chirping. But where is he, huh? That exemplary student didn't go to school? Sounds like it's not really Gin.

Today is different, there is no Gin and, there is a person I just saw. In front of the classroom next to the incoming teacher, there was a very conspicuous person, who was it?

“We have new students coming. Tysha, introduce yourself to your friends.” The teacher answered my question.

New student! Like a bollywood celebrity. Her hair was very beautiful, long, black and straight unraveling. Tall and pretty, slim anyway. Her eyes were round and fair-skinned, her lips slightly thick and sexy. Gee.

“My name is Tysha Ardina. I moved from New York!”

Her smile was very sweet, her voice was also soft. Is this what you admire at first sight?

“Tysha, sit behind her Leva.” Said the homeroom teacher. He'll also sit behind my chair, are we a match?

Wait up!

He's gonna sit in the chair behind me? Think of the worst thing that's going to happen, she's beautiful, she looks attractive, she looks smart. In a minute he will become very popular, all eyes will follow him wherever he goes, some will approach him to get acquainted, then become friends, then chat together, then … why am I so worried?

“Alright! I'll stay, two minutes later your teacher will come in. Don't fuss!”

Why did the homeroom teacher even come out? I know, now I'm in trouble.

There was still one step left of the door, the teacher had yet to completely leave the classroom, they had all become excited. They're invading! My normal life is becoming more and more abnormal, why does this girl have to sit behind my chair? No, that's not the case, why did this girl transfer to my school?

They all swarmed her, crammed between my chair and Tysha's. Don't fit, don't push my chair like this. I should how Tuhaaaaan?

I choked. I'm out of breath.

Then die.

Then buried, still alive.

Finally got up again.

So zombie.

“I ... I'm wedged.” I tried to tell them, but no one listened. My voice is too small, I want to scream but I can't, it's not me if I scream. How then? Just left. But thankfully the Helper came, our English teacher came in. Mercifully. They all disbanded.

“Hei!” Tysha called out to me, she patted me on the shoulder.

Didn't he pat me too hard? That's sore.

“I'm Tysha, who are you?” He asked half a whisper, and I looked back. Neck hurts.

“Quinzha Leva!”

“I have to call you who?”

He was the first person to ask me that question. Greatable.

“Leva!”

“Leva, greetings yes. You are so beautiful!”

“Thanks!”

He kidding me? He held back his laughter, his face looked like that. Is that a compliment that is just a compliment? I mean mock by pretending to praise, if you don't understand, yeah.

I don't know why I feel such a bad aura from this transfer girl.

***

After the regular class was over, I immediately went to the extra class.

I finally met them, I'm happy. It's strange, but it's not a bad feeling. Good or bad feeling, right?

“Leva, what did you do during the holidays?” Ask Dawn.

“He spent a good time with me!” Vicky said spirit.

Whoi! Vicky, he asked me not you, why do you answer, it's a form of discrimination, right? I am oppressed, my right to speak is deprived.

“You spend time together?” Fairel asked, why is he interested? Though he was reading the book earlier, just read the book there because you look cool while reading the book. I say this from the bottom of my shallow heart.

“Iya!” Vicky said with a smile, “I stayed at his house for three days.”

“For three days?” Dawn also followed suit, why not just continue to remove the board. Even though he still erased the board, anyway.

“True, we did unusual things there. Pleasant!”

“Looks like you're so happy, Vicky!”

“Really, right! It's so much fun, isn't it Leva?”

I'm nodding. “I'm a little happy to play with him.” I said.

“See, right?” Vicky said happily.

“She's smart talk now!” Comment Abi.

What does he mean it's me? I'm offended, seriously. But they laughed‒which felt warm.

“Everything, you guys have new friends.” Mr. Abdul suddenly appeared.

Why does he appear so suddenly? I was shocked, you know!

“Greet everyone, Tysha!”

Oooo. Tysha is here, why am I worried? But more importantly, I get it now, it turns out he's not smart.

“I Tysha Ardina. I moved from New York. It was my first day at school and was posted here. Hahaha.” He whines. “In my regular class one class with Leva, hi Leva!” He waved at me. “Everyone, greetings know!” He said end his sentence.

She sat down next to Fairel, thank goodness she didn't choose to sit next to me. Why am I so worried? Unknowingly I looked at Vicky, he looked shocked. She why?

“Hei. You're the famous head of the ise?” Tysha invited Fairel to chat, her voice was huge. Everyone can hear it.

“Aaa .. well!” Fairel smiled at Tysha. Why is her smile so much sweeter than usual?

“Wow! The story turned out to be true, you are indeed very sweet!”

Is he sugar? Why does this girl always praise everyone she talks to, before she complimented me pretty, even though she laughed afterwards.

“Your name is Fairel, right?”

“Yah!”

“Your name is good too. By the way, I have a question. Why is the head of the iss can be in an extra class?”

Is correct. Great question I could never think of before. The manager of the osis should only be occupied by students of above-average value, then, why is Fairel here?

Fairel just smiled, he did not reply.

“Hai Vicky, long time no see you. I thought you went out of nowhere, it turns out we met again here!” Tysha greeted Vicky very kindly, she did not stop smiling.

“Hey, I'm Dawn!”

I expected it, they would all swarm in. Tysha served them well, she never got tired of smiling. Everyone must have been amazed at her, she was so beautiful. She's a good-natured girl, good guys always smile, right?

“Leva, don't get affected by its sweet nature!” Vicky approached me.

He pulled out his chair and desk and placed it close to my desk.

“She was very friendly, but she wasn't really friendly. Dia―”

“Understanding!”

“Heh? You really understand?”

“I understand.”

“I haven't explained it yet, you can't possibly understand.”

“I understand!”

“Be-really? Seeing you insistent like that maybe you really understand.” Vicky said.

“I understand, Tysha is not a good person, right?” My whisper. Vicky looked at me in shock.

“Leva, I can't believe you really understand!”

“Um. His smile, there's the evil element.”

“Hah? That's not what I meant!”

We were both silent, Vicky's face was back to normal as usual.

Additional classes are over.

***

Tysha had been constantly talking to Fairel, basically Fairel was a good person so she was watching Tysha talk, moreover Tysha was very beautiful. She also wears a lipstick, I have my own assumptions about the high school girl wearing the lipstick. I have three points for him:

Grown-up.

Societal.

She is a model.

“Leva, let's go. I'm taking you to my house today.” Get Vicky to disperse my daydreams. He took me to his house? Should I answer yes or no? The answer is yes, good or bad? How about ‘not’? Worse, right? Ooo both bad answers, I can hurt his heart if you answer no, but if you answer ‘ya’, my heart will hurt.

Why am I thinking about it anyway? Whether he's sick or not, is that my business? I became so worried about me, what if this was a symptom that I was going crazy?

“I have to tell Lea.” I answered after a split second of thought.

“She said Yes!”

Huh huh?

“See, sms his aunt Lea!”

He showed me a text message on his cell phone.

‒‒Leva will definitely love it. Be nice with her there, make sure she sleeps comfortably in your house. Don't forget, he likes to eat ice cream at night.‒‒

Do I have to say thank you? Since when did the two of them exchange phone numbers?

“Come!” Bring along.

I moved from my seat. Qarima suddenly appeared in front of the door. He's not wearing a school uniform.

“I brought your clothes. Lea prepared everything for you.” Qarima. “Hai Fairel!” Also Qarima's greeting to Fairel.

Fairel smiled at him.

“Hi everything!” He also greeted the others, “Dan .. who?” He looked at Tysha with a sharp, questioning and intimidating look.

“Hai! You're a friend of Fairel's? I'm Tysha!” Tysha extended her hand to Qarima, this girl was indeed very kind, she was friendly to everyone even to Qarima who clearly showed a sour face to her.

“I'm Tysha Ardina, just moved today from New York!”

“Qarima, Qarima Lavega!”

“Qarima Lavega, good name. You are also very pretty!”

Yeah, I know. Everyone looks beautiful in your eyes.

“We go!” Take Vicky. I nodded, I had no reason to refuse, even my clothes were already here.

“You want to go, Vicky?” Tysha. “You don't want to take me to your house?”

“I've brought my best friend!” Answer Vicky.

“So now you have―”

“We have to leave immediately, Tysha!” Cut Vicky fast, as if he didn't want anyone to hear the sentence that Tysha would say next.

We hurry to go‒ in a hurry. I don't know why. Vicky pulled my hand.

“Vicky, you're getting beautiful now! I also love your new hairstyle!” Shouted Tysha from far away.

***

Vicky chatted along the way, I didn't understand what he was saying, his voice wasn't so clear when he was angry. I had only seen the cheerful and always feisty Vicky before, so this was like an angry Vicky?

I also thought about the situation in the extra class when we left, I could see Qarima's sharp gaze on Tysha. It seems like the situation is tense, although I don't know why Qarima is angry but I worry when she is angry.

Something happened when I was third grade, the gang leader put worms in my lunchbox, Qarima found out later, he got angry, he argued with gang leader‒ who then, after that, he got angry, I don't remember what happened. Clearly, the head of his gang changes schools and, Qarima is suspended.

You can imagine a suspended third-grader, anyway, Qarima is creepy when he gets angry. If that happens again now, the transfer girl could move again.
