I'm Still in High School
Chapter 23 Meet Kevin
Gwen's intention to eliminate the gab in Mister Satria's class which was replaced by a task, it turns out that the girl feels comfortable. The coolness of the trees, and being able to see many small families were sightseeing, gave Gwen her own pleasure. Her missed childhood was just more with the nanny, making the girl try to forget about her.
"Hemmph. once in a while, lazy to go back to school. This place is very quiet, and makes me feel comfortable." looking at the watch on the wrist, Gwen spoke to herself.
Although classified as badung in school, the girl rarely truant. During this time Gwen often slept in lessons, but remained in class. Most master teachers punish him by giving additional duties, as punishment for not listening to explanations. But maybe because it was basically genius, Gwen could always finish the task well.
"Dukkk.." suddenly there was a ball rolling and stopped in front of Gwen's feet. There was a little boy who seemed to be playing ball.
Gwen lowered her body down, picked up and toyed with the ball with both hands. Smiling, Gwen walked over to the little boy. As the distance of the two got closer, Gwen waved her hand calling the little boy to get closer to her.
"Hi... What's your name good-looking..?" Gwen crouched down, and asked the boy who looked so cute.
"Kevin brother. it was Kevin's ball.." the little boy introduced himself, and pointed towards the ball in Gwen's hand.
"Oh this is Kevin's ball. Does Kevin want to play with brother...?" kindly, Gwen responded to the little boy.
The boy nodded timidly, then Gwen took Kevin by the hand and led him to a more spacious ground. Not long after, Gwen and Kevin had played ball together, both of them passed and kicked the ball together.Sometimes the laughter of the two sounded, it was very easy to find happiness, just by enjoying the little things like that.
"Kevin lase yukk, we look for drinks like brother, we all find food. Brother Gwen was hungry." while playing, Gwen began to feel hungry. The little boy was silent, and suddenly Gwen remembered that she had not seen any adults with Kevin.
"Kevin.. Who did you come here with, honey...?? Later Gwen's brother is thought to kidnap you again. Whether Kevin came here with family, mom or dad perhaps." didn't want to bother himself so he had to deal with the authorities, Gwen asked the little boy.
The little boy shook his head, and there was like a disappointed look in his eyes. This made Gwen even more curious...
"Keep by the way, with whom dear Kevin is here., Answer, brother will not be angry. If Kevin comes to this place by himself, and is afraid to go home, brother will drive you to the house dear.." in a slow and careful voice, Gwen asked Kevin. The little boy looked at him, like there was something he wanted to tell. Seeing this, Gwen wondered, but the girl did not pursue an explanation.
"Here Kevin is. accompany brother first, we'll find food. Relax, with brother, you'll be safe, baby.." Gwen immediately took Kevin to the shop on the side of the road.
"Batagor two ya buk.., the same cold jasmine tea drink is also two.." Gwen immediately ordered two servings of food and drinks for them.
"Well, wait a minute." not long after, the bricklayer prepared their order. Gwen took a tissue and cleared away the sweat dripping on the little boy's forehead.

Gwen held Kevin in the back, and with the little boy's pointer, Gwen intended to drive Kevin home. The crowded streets he passed, finally had to stop because Kevin's index finger invited into the rice fields. Gwen frowned, trying to think how Kevin could get to the Bogor Botanical Garden.
"Is it still far from Kevin where you live..?" patiently, Gwen asked the little boy in her arms.
"No, brother.., right down the street, that's where Kevin lives," Kevin responded to Gwen's question.
The girl finally followed the direction indicated by Kevin, and right at the end of the road, precisely on the edge of the rice field, there was a semi-permanent building that read Hidayah Orphanage. Gwen's forehead wrinkled, for a moment the girl hesitated. But because Kevin said if it was his place to live, Gwen finally stopped his Ducati in the front of the building.
"This is where Kevin lives..." Gwen did not ask questions. The girl looked back, looking at the little boy. Kevin smiled and nodded his head, then the little boy came down from the splint.
Suddenly from the direction of the home, came two women who had hijab. When they saw Kevin with Gwen, the two women seemed to rush over to the little boy.
"Kevin... Where have you been??? Mother and sisters are looking for you everywhere." One of the girls came up to Kevin, and searched the little boy with a question.
"I'm sorry ma'am, Kevin happened to be with me since. I took this child for a walk to accompany me.." Pity that when the little boy got angry, Gwen positioned herself as the party who invited Kevin.
The two men stared at Gwen, saw a girl in a high school uniform, and wearing a very expensive Ducati motorcycle, both of whom then looked at each other. But eventually...
"It is not polite when seen by people, please stop by yukk first. While later mbaknya convey to the mother of the orphanage, if you have gone to bring Kevin. Because we don't know either, lately Kevin has been leaving the house a lot, not knowing where he's headed.." One of them invited Gwen in.
The girl thought for a while, and after looking at her watch, it turned out to be over at 14:00, and would no longer be overtaken if she was going back to school, finally Gwen nodded her head. The two women took Kevin by the hand, then brought him inside. Gwen enters Ducati by leading her to the courtyard of the parlour, then the girl follows inside.
"Sister Gwen can't lie. There was no need to cover Kevin up.." upon seeing Gwen sitting down, Kevin approached the girl.
"It's okay Kevin, for tomorrow again no need to do it again huh. Big brother promised, brother Gwen will often come to the parlor, and invite you to play dear.." Gwen rubbed Kevin's head gently, as if an older brother was rubbing his sister's hair.
Unnoticed by Gwen and Kevin, a middle-aged mother comes out of the inner room. Seeing a beautiful girl in uniform who was wiping her foster children, the woman smiled.
"Eh.. there's a guest to this. mother to the point of not knowing.." The mother's voice surprised Gwen. The girl suddenly turned her face, and looked at the middle-aged woman.
