DEAR
Episode 8

I came home early today.

Qarima and Qhaza were watching tv in the living room. Before I go to my room,

Qarima.

“Leva-kun!” My call changed again.

I stopped and looked at him.

“I heard that extra classes also participate in the festival?”

I'm nodding.

“Have an idea for it?”

I nodded again.

“Really?” He approached me. “What is it?”

I just shut up.

“What your friends tell you to keep it a secret! Come on, I'm not gonna steal an idea. After all we've set what we're going to do.”

“I'm hungry!” I said to divert the conversation.

“Woe－”

I abandoned. He looks upset because I didn't answer him. Abdul asked us to

keep secret.

Moments after lunch hour was over, I pondered in the room. Think hard about the movie. My pride as a movie lover would be below zero if I couldn't come up with a better idea than the others.

Cring cring cring.

My HP reads. But stop when I want to lift it. New number. From the outside, I heard footsteps

someone who approached. “Leva, I'm in yes.”

Qarima appeared wearing only a kimono towel. “What's up?” My toot.

“What are you doing?”

“No.”

“Long. Tell me.”

“Not going, I'm ashamed.” Said pretending, looking away.

“Thy? Haha. Don't silly. Nothing in this world can embarrass you! I know it!” His ejek. He took a long breath. “Actually Leva .. I am in love. I'll shoot the guy tomorrow.”

“You did it yesterday.”

“I will do again.”

“Wallfront.”

“It's not polite for you to talk like that to your sister.”

“Cih!’

“What do you mean cih?”

I closed my eyes, closed my ears, hoping not to hear her chatter again. And a moment later it was quiet, he was out. Mercifully. Now I can calm down, return to my world again.

After finishing regular class, I immediately headed for an additional class. I didn't pay much heed to my classmates who were getting busy with their extra activities for the school festival. I hurriedly picked up my bag and left, before Gin intercepted me.

“Where are you going?”

“Additional class.” My answer.

“True too, I forgot.” Katana's cold. He's not like he used to be. His attitude was strange again.

“Go!” Say it while stepping away from the front door. I glanced at him for a moment. Wonder what's wrong with him. And, to an additional class.

I met Fairel at the intersection of the school corridor, then we walked together. I kept thinking about the movie, I couldn't stop smiling.

“So good thing?” Fairel.

“Hmmm,” I nodded slowly.

“Really?”

“No, I don't want to hear it either.”

Don't want to hear it? For some reason, it feels quite painful.

“Tadi, I went to the osis.” room Now, he's the one who started telling stories. “I met your sister.”

“With ka―HEH!?”

My steps stopped, I was shocked. Really am. He followed me, and turned to look at me.

“What's up?” Ask.

“What does Fairel know about Qarima?” I asked with caution.

“Know. Why is it, is it weird?”

I nodded, “My sister you mean that .. is Qarima?”

“Of course, do you have another sister besides him?”

I'm shaking. Strange, how did he know? I walked back, Fairel followed me from behind.

“What does Fairel do in the isis room?” I asked for pleasantries just to divert my mind.

“Nothing, I just checked the state.”

What answer is that? Check things? Who are you? “Securing conditions? For what?”

“For what? Your question is very strange.”

No, your words are strange. “Fai―”

“Of course, right? You see, that's my duty as chairman of osis.”

“Oh, chairman o―HEH!?”

EEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE!!!!?

CAN'T BE!

“Leva, what's up? You okay?” Plain asking.

Nah! I'm not okay. How could something like this happen, being shocked twice in a row in such a short pause, definitely give me a stroke, right? But ... Why am I surprised, huh? Why would something like this bother me?

“Leva?” Fairel fluttered her hands in front of my face, I looked at her blankly. I walked without a word, past Tiwa and Abdul sir who were discussing a strange thing that was really strange. So many of the other adult talk like ‘how many brothers you have’ ‘oh I also like mocca. Looks like we have a lot in common’.

On the front porch of the other side classes Adit and Ono were discussing while facing their bodies towards the school forest. While Vicky was sweeping the room, she had the skill to be a servant, she looked graceful when holding a broomstick with her small, weak arms, his body swayed to the left and to the right swept away the paper tear scattered on the floor.

At the same time Abi and Fajar tidied up the irregularly lined chairs, they were excited and familiar with each other. Merely, I was a little astonished by this world, so many different events, how could there be people who laboriously worked and there were also people who just sat back and relaxed? Well, I belong to the second category.

I slammed myself on the chair, immediately throwing away thoughts about my previous conversation with Fairel, I didn't want to be bothered with such a ridiculous thing. Who cares if he's the head of the isis?

“You've come.” Shouted Mr. Abdul from outside the room, he waved his hand at me. What's wrong with this guy?

“You are late,” comments Dawn has finished tidying up the seats.

“What's with that broomstick?” Ask Mr. Abdul, while staring at the broomstick that Vicky was holding.

“Hehe! This is all that's left in the gear room. Everything is being used by other classes. Our class does not have its own equipment, so this is the only one that can be used.” Vicky obviously laughed.

“What's with that principal?” Complaints Fairel.

“Don't talk about my father like that,” Ono and Adit who are outdoors join in. “It is the chief who should have the initiative for something like this.”

“This has nothing to do with the ises! Osis has no business with silly things!” Fairel defended herself.

Actually I really don't know why the one named ‘osis’ exists. I don't know what the job of the osis or the principal is, so for their current debate I'm not anyone's ally.

“It's enough to hang out.” Said Mr. Abdul later, “form back his desk like yesterday.”

“Heh!? Why not say it since then, I've been working hard to make it like this!” Complaints Dawn.

“I didn't tell you!” Denied mr Abdul. And they all laughed.

“Today until the next week we do not learn.” Tiwa finally spoke after a few seconds of silence.

“Horeeeee!” Shouted Abi suddenly. We all looked at him. Not usually. “What?” Ask. We all shook our heads. After all, since when did I start doing the ‘ simultaneously’ behavior with them? My precious world is now beginning to be confused.

“I want to hear the results of your thoughts on the theme that we agreed yesterday.” Abdul started talking. Everyone noticed, we were ready to exchange ideas.
