EIGHT TARGETS
10. Do Not Let Your Eyes Water

Ratih, Mirna, and Wilda gaped with flushed faces before Kaiser.  Kaiser whose mind was temporarily in a state of turmoil due to the news about him in the mass media at that time became misinterpreted their attitude with discomfort with him.  “Sorry.”  Kaiser then looked away from them and walked towards the classroom.  Those who saw the awkwardness of Kaiser's expression only realized from the flowers of their romance will Kaiser's current mental state which is likely to drop due to mass media lies.

“Kaiser, wait.”  Ratih grabbed Kaiser's hand and intercepted him into the classroom.  Mirna and Wilda followed behind him.

“If it's about news on TV, no one believes about it.  Right friends?”

“Ya.”

“…”

Mirna asserted firmly to Ratih's statement while the shy Wilda nodded loudly.

“Lantas why were you guys suddenly avoiding me?”

“Itu.”

“Anu.”

Ratih, Mirna and the timid Wilda helplessly answer Kaiser's innocent questions.

“That's because I love Kaiser!”  The quiet Wilda, suddenly just shouted loudly breaking the atmosphere.

The attention of the class suddenly fell on them.  Andika, who was behind them, walked closer to them.

“Yeah, our innocent prince.  You can force a girl to say such a thing.”  Wilda who felt very embarrassed for the words she did not want to say immediately ran out of class.

“Like?  But I'm not?”

“Take it easy, Kaiser.  We like you as much as we like our idols, so just relax responding to it.”  Answer ratih shyly.

“So, trust yourself because you are our precious idol.”  Mirna added with her distinctive smile behind her brown skin.

“But I am..Soal media now..Hiks...I don't have enough power...Hiks...I am weak..Hiks...” Say Kaiser while stammering.  Tears slowly drip by drop soaked her cheeks.

Kaiser tried to wipe away those tears.  However, unfortunately his tears could not be held so that the more swift.

“Kaiser, you calm down.”  Andika tries to calm her best friend.

“Kaiser, are you okay?”  Loki The Class Master who looked very worried came to Kaiser.

“No.  Hiks.  I didn't mean..Hiks..”.

“Already.  It's been.  Just eject.  Nothing wrong for a man to cry.”  Said Beni who came along while patting Kaiser's shoulder.

Some of the classmates came up to him with concerned faces.  A few more remained silent looking doubtful, but also still showed a worried expression to his classmates.

[Truly a solid class.  Thank goodness I went to school here] Andika who witnessed the situation muttered proudly.

Loki looked at Kaiser with deep concern.  To him, Kaiser was a very kind and friendly person who was willing to get along with anyone regardless of their social status.  He also often helps others selflessly.  Often Loki finds Kaiser helping people he doesn't even know without anyone knowing.  Of course Loki can know all this because of his hobby that likes to collect information in secret around him.  It is a strange and dangerous hobby.

“Now you sit down first.  Calm your heart.”  Say Loki while driving Kaiser to his chair.

“Others please step aside to give way.”  Added Loki.

“Kaiser?”  Loki panicked.

Unexpectedly Kaiser lost consciousness.  Quickly, Loki supported Kaiser's fragile body.

“Deed, the media has no brain.  Could have accused this fragile child of murder.”  Said Loki in a somewhat angry tone.

In Loki's eyes, Kaiser certainly looked fragile when compared to his large, stocky body.  But in fact, Kaiser's body is also muscular, but covered by his thin body and bright white skin, and his height which although not too short is 168 cm, but far below the average height of the male students in his school that almost all of them had a height of more than 170 cm.

Loki and Beni also brought Kaiser to the UKS.  That day, Kaiser had to stay out of class all day.  Kaiser only realized when the 7th lesson hour took place and decided to just rest in the UKS room until the end of the lesson.  Just a distraction, at Kaiser school there are 8 hours of lessons every Monday – friday and 6 hours of special lessons Saturday.  There is a break between the 4th and 5th lesson hours for 15 minutes and the 6th and 7th lesson hours for 1 hour.

When Kaiser was not in class, Feriandro Wijayakusuma arrived, no, Feriandro Putrawardhani as a new student in his class.

***

The next day during the second break, Kaiser, Andika, Loki, and Beni were gathered together at the cafeteria table for a canteen meal.  Suddenly, a fairly beautiful girl with white skin and long hair unraveled came to them.  Alicia Putrawardhani is a 1st year art student at her High School.  “What are art students doing here?”  Asked Loki who clearly showed his dislike of the woman's presence.

Just a distraction, the Kaiser school is divided into 4 buildings connected by a ceremonial and sports field in the middle.  In the building to the south or located in front consists of the office of the principal, teachers, and administrative staff, as well as classrooms for grade 1 students of the general majors where Kaiser and co are located.  To the east or to the left of the building are classrooms for students in grades 2 and 3 of the IPA department, to the west or to the right of the building are classrooms for 2nd and 3rd grade students majoring in IPS, while the north building is located at the back near the forest, and, place special students art classes 1, 2, and 3.  Each building has its own canteen so it is very rare for students from other buildings to find.

The woman stared at Kaiser's face.

“Everything will be revealed.  I will expose all your rottenness so that Brother, Father, and Mother can rest in peace in nature there.  You get ready, you murderer!”  The woman raised her voice so that the attention of the canteen was on them.

“What did you say?  Who are you and what have I done?”  Kaiser with a flat face without showing any expression responded to the woman's remark.

“Don't pretend to be stupid after what you did to Father, Mother, and Brother Aleka!”  Shake the woman again in a louder voice.

“What did I do to them?  Do you also want to accuse me of such rumors without evidence spread by the mass media?  If you are not satisfied, let's wait for the law.  I will prove my innocence and I will drag you back who accuse me haphazardly.”  Kaiser who was still sitting while glaring a sharp gaze towards Alicia.

Alicia was shocked and involuntarily stepped back then stumbled and sat down to fall.

“Ah!”

“Hey, are you okay?”  Fero who saw Alicia fall then helped her up.

“Hei Bung, you shouldn't be rude to a woman.”  Said Fero while looking at Kaiser angrily.

“Excuse me for interrupting a bit.  I just don't understand how you can judge so Kaiser is wrong here? Didn't the woman fall by herself?  I'm amazed at your thoughts.  Forgive me.  Why is Kaiser always the fault?  What did this kid do?  Heh. I didn't think it out.  And also, regarding the events that befell his family, shouldn't that make it for at least a little introspection?  Isn't that karma that his own family experienced for their depraved behavior?”  Said Andika trying to hold back her emotions with a face facing Fero, but glanced her eyes sharply at Alicia.

“You...!”  Alicia seemed to be unable to contain her frustration.

“Already, let's go.  I'll help you to UKS.”  Fero held back the angry Alicia and immediately took her away.

“Who exactly is that new student?  Why was he familiar with that art boy?  He moved in our class, right?”  Ask Beni curiously.

“Entahlah.  Possibly distant family.  Just look at his last name.”  Andika answered lethargicly while dropping her head to the right hand she supported.

“Maybe a new cop assigned to investigate Kaiser?  Look at how old he looks.  Who believes he's a High School boy.”  Said Loki with a grimace.

“Can he stay class, just look at that stupid face.”  Andika said quickly commenting on Loki's opinion.

“Can also.  Hahahaha!”  The man laughed at Andika's funny response.  He was Lokriatul Wijayakusuma, class president in class 1A of general department, Kaiser class.
