Vin enjoys breakfast and Nia wakes up feeling hungry. The girl rubbed her eyes and looked towards Vin. Nia recalled Desi's message of having to prepare water and soap for their young master.

The girl rushed over to Vin. "So what kind of water would you like to get in, brother?" ask Nia.

"Water? Ngigau lo?!" reply Vin.

"Said earlier if Kak Vin wants to take a bath, must be ready for soapy water," replied Nia.

"Gue took a shower! You sleep there until half-nine! If you look like Desi, you might get fired! Say thanks to me now!" vin said while eating his food.

"Yes, how else. I'm sleepy! I stayed up last night! Continue to dawn and even built Desi told to stand here for hours waiting for you to wake up just to say good morning!" namel Nia.

"So there's a waiter who anterin breakfast here. He wants to get angry! I told you to sleep there! Because you said, you're still sleepy! At least you say thank you cake what that cake is because I've been trying good with my personal servant!" Vin was nagging.

"Help, ask for a heart!" firmly Vin.

"Yes, I want to say thanks to you, Brother Vin!" deny Nia.

"Died to say, thanks doang. What trouble?!" stern Vin again.

Nia fell silent. Vin helped him a lot. "Thank you!" said Nia. At that moment Vin smiled.

This time they arrived at the national exam. Kim Tae Young suffered a severe tremor for fear of facing it. He was rushed to the school clinic because their homeroom teacher was worried that Kim Tae Young might have a seizure.

The man's blood flow rate is also abnormal because he stayed up all night to study for the sake of facing this national test.

"So, what about Arnold, Vin?" ask Marc.

"Brought to the clinic" replied Vin.

"Well, dong. The test is back, it's starting!" reply Marc and make Vin think again how to get Kim Tae Young out of this problem.

"Emang can ya, people are scared until it's gemetsr?" ask Marc.

"Well! 'arnold did not want to be sent to Korea from his bokap, so he tried his best. He also stayed up all night in the dorm" replied Vin again.

"So, too, when I squirm," said Marc. "Well, you study, Vin?" continued.

"No, bokap I told me to go to bed at 9, I want to open a book was not allowed. He said go to sleep, get up early. Learn it right that morning," said Vin.

Vin and Marc again memorized the contents of the book they held. After thinking for a long time, Vin finally decided to meet Kim Tae Young at the school clinic.

There he saw Kim Tae Young who was trying to control his body which was constantly shaking.

"Nold," called Vin who was sitting next to the man.

Suddenly Kim Tae Young was trembling. Vin panicked to see it.

"Gue just wanted to say, how if I later help you to get rank 1," said Vin.

"You mean?" ask Kim Tae Young.

"Ntar, our answer paper, we're tukers. Have lo don't give names. Got me too. Ntar we tukeran and write each other's names. Paper answers me, so have lo. Your paper answers, so it's mine" Vin said.

Slowly the trembling in Kim Tae Young's body disappeared.

The national exam begins. They launched all the action like what Vin said. Everything went well. Eventually, they had to wait for the results of the national exam for a month.

"My question!" yura in the canteen. "Why is the test only two weeks? Why not a month? 'not bad, we as adek class lo can have a longer holiday!" continued.

"Yes, how do I know! Ask the Minister of Education sono!" reply Vin.

"Yes, I haven't seen any Korean dramas. Minimum month!" Vio chimed in on Yura's sentence.

"So you both want how many days off?! I am also given a holiday and still profitable! We have no holiday! We have to go to school for extra hours!" vin's Omel.

Coinciding with that, Jesika and Kayuki came and ordered some food. They sat next to Yura, Vio, Marc and Vin's group. Yura immediately put on her irritated face.

"Sister Vin!" The voice broke the silence.

Nia joined Vin.

"What are you doing here?" ask Vin.

"I want to buy you guys!" answer Nia.

"Tractier? Not wrong, you?!" reply Vin.

"Yes! I just got paid!" reply Nia.

"Gue likes it, treat! I want meatballs!" Yura immediately responded to the goodwill of her underclassman.

"Gue too!" Vio followed in Yura's footsteps.

"okay!!" reply Nia who rushed to order meatballs.

Vin even chuckled unwillingly to see the behavior of Nia.

"Lo why, Vin?" ask Yura.

"Why then?" ask Yura again.

"Like the time he's with Nia" Vio replied.

Yura laughed instead. "His love is racy, Bund?" tease Yura and make Vio laugh with her.

Marc was busy playing mobile phones and not serving them.

***

"Lo's studies?" whispered Vin and made Nia surprised.

"Yes, Young Master." Nia whispered and showed herself as if she was dealing with a prince.

They ate the food that Nia bought for them. Vin chuckles incessantly every time he remembers, now his servant buys him a meal because of the salary he gives.

After Nia left all of them, Yura began to mock Vin.

"Ekhem! Somebody likes it, Bund!" taunted.

"Lo likes a leak, Marc?!" pekik Vin's.

"Lo!" reply Marc.

"My shell?" point Vin at himself.

"Lo likes Nia?" ask Yura.

"Crazy kali lo!" dispute Vin quickly.

"Ciye, I love the leaks, Bund!" tease Yura again.

"What the hell, Ra?! I like it the same!" firmly Vin while chuckling.

"Diii! It's unclean!" reply Yura.

"Dirty?!" pekik Vin's.

"Ntar Vin really likes Nia, you even cry, Ra!" tease Marc.

"I cry? I am thankful! Let Nia follow mewek if I mukulin Vin!" reply Yura again.

"Lo's too stupid, Ra!" vin.

Almost every day, Yura sees Vin who likes to mock Nia. They seem to be hiding something from everyone. It was very clear when Vin often gave a signal to tell Nia to be quiet. Yura became curious about it.

"Lo two, dating?" ask Yura.

"Well?!" Their responses simultaneously.

"No, Brother!" rebut Nia quickly.

"But, you're both kind of dating," Yura replied.

"No!" reply Vin.

"Yes, if not, no need to be all that way too" replied Yura.

Day after day Yura spoke less and less with Vin, both chatting and doing other things. Yura and Vio also saw, Vin and Marc prefer to sit in the cafeteria and chat with Nia.

"Isn't Vin sure you don't like Nia?" ask Vio.

"Yes, he's the one!" answer Yura.

"It's so good that she likes Nia!" say Vio again.

"Yes give it up, Vi. Why do we also take care of Vin?" reply Yura.

The closer Vin gets to Nia at school, the more lonely Yura feels. School was boring without a fight with Vin. This was the reason Yura did not want to reconcile with the figure of the man. The things he feared began to happen.

"Lagian Vin will soon graduate school. Want me to not be bosen," said Yura monologue.

"Well?!" vio's response heard the faint sentence.

"Nothing, just thinking!" reply Yura.

"Is there a name for me, Vin?" asked Marc who was squeezed by another student.

"Nothing!" replied Vin who was busy looking for his name in the order of twenty to the bottom.

"Yah! Your name's on top, Vin!" pekik Marc who saw the name of his closest friend.

Vin's eyes were spinning towards the sequence of numbers above.
