I'm Still in High School
Chapter 38 Memorial
Arriving at Palm Biomedical Park, Andrew went straight into his study. Before entering, the young man advised the company secretary Mrs. Laura to clear the agenda for him. The man also said if he did not want to receive guests, on the grounds that he was conducting online meetings with partners. Without asking, Mrs. Laura immediately agreed.
"Barra I will make a calculation with you, because you have underestimated the notice I informed you.." turns out Andrew will contact Barra, the husband of his nephew and also his best friend. The absence of Gwen's husband at the award ceremony for her nephew, has been very offensive and hurt the man. Andrew thought that Barra had underestimated and underestimated him,
Andrew sat down at his desk and made a video call to his best friend. Moments later the call was connected, and Barra's smiling face saw it.
"Hi Andrew. I just got out of the meeting room, and thank goodness I was able to win the supply logistics tender to the Finnish Army base." feeling innocent, as Barra usually conveys information to her best friend, she said.,
But instead of smiling, Andrew's gaze continued to look at Barra's face, and there was not even a hint of a smile on the man's lips. For a while, it seemed like Barra had just awakened, if there was something strange about his best friend.
"Andrew... what happens about you...? I saw there was a look of anger for me, was there anything wrong.." guiltlessly, Barra confirmed the man's attitude.
"Hempph... This time, I am very difficult to disallow your fatal mistake, and I will not defend you in front of him. Your absence in this country, when Gwen received the award, was a blow to me. You've been so dismissive of Barra.." the man across was so surprised to see his best friend angry, he said,
"What did you do to me, Andrew... Isn't it just a show of High School children testing their brains and intelligence alone, why you got to behave like that Andrew... You also know not, as entrepreneurs, how important it is that we can get a new tender, can expand or expand our company's wings" Barra said,
"What you say Barra, just a high school show you think... Have you forgotten who and what your status is now, and what does Gwen my niece mean to you...??? I'd rather lose you now Barra, than see my niece suffer at your hands someday. Damn it guys.." Barra's words provoked Andrew's emotions. The man was really angry, and Barra became surprised to hear it.
"Remember Barra, we've been best friends since childhood, but if I see you hurting my niece Gwen, then I'd rather lose a friend like you. You know, no, what a Gwen means to me, Gwen isn't just a niece to me, I've even considered her my own son. I've put off thinking about my own life, as long as Gwen hasn't found happiness.." Barra's surprise has not been lost, the man is again shocked. After delivering the last sentence, Andrew unilaterally ended his phone call,
There was nothing Barra could do, as it would be a point of no use if she called Andrew back. Barra sat still, and the man leaned his back against the back of his chair. The man was trying to digest back the sentence after sentence that had just happened between himself and Andrew his best friend. Suddenly the man was afraid of losing Gwen.

S.E.A Sentosa Island Aquarium
The three young people looked up, watching the sea fish in the aquarium above. Gwen let out a sigh and fell silent, because she was amazed to see a stingray that turned out to be so wide and huge.
"What are you looking at Gwen..." Aldo asked the girl, when he saw that Gwen was very focused on observation,
"Hemmph was right, Gwen. If smoked, and already served food, we only see it in small pieces. But for a fish in its original form it is like that, and stingrays have spines or what the name suggests, a kind of hammer if it is a poisonous chicken. Remember, Discovery Channel announcer Steve Irwin died of stingers. The hammer on the fin of the fish pierced into his heart at that time, and had an impact on death..." Aldo explained,
"Iiihhhhh turns out to be terrible, yes Aldo. behind the beauty, it turns out there is a threat behind him.." while continuing to observe, Gwen agreed.
The two young people continued to see animals and marine life from the glass of the aquarium that surrounded it. The beauty of the color, the shape seemed to hypnotize the two young people from the front, seen Asep rushed to the two young people,
"Aldo.., Gwen, come out yukkk. Honestly, I'm hungry and hungry, since we haven't eaten anything yet." Asep is starving. Aldo and Gwen looked at each other, but eventually they both laughed together,
"Hadeh Asep. Yuk ah's... Ald, we're out, find a food court. The business of hunger cannot be delayed. If Asep passes out, even then we will bother Aldo," fortunately Gwen immediately responded.
"Hemmph well, this is how Gwen is, if we take the little boy to the road, his desires are many.." while answering, Aldo finally invited Gwen to find the direction of EXIT.
The three youngsters finally walked out of the aquarium, then climbed up towards the escalator to head upstairs. Seeing that there was a food court in the corner of the mall, the three immediately headed in that direction.
"By the way.. After eating, we'll go where else Gwen..." Aldo asked the girl. As a woman among themselves, Gwen was the first to be asked about her abilities.
"Reverse directly to Changi only yes. I was lazy to go back to the hotel, Grandpa also went straight back to Japan. It's got to be that Om Andrew's still in the company." Gwen answered Aldo's question.
"Okaylah.we can also take a walk at changi airport, many merchants who offer our goods. The price is also competitive, no different from the original outlet in the mall.." Aldo consented. Asep noticed that there was an empty seat in the corner, and the young man immediately pointed to the empty seat,
"I'll claim the empty seat, yeah, who's gonna order the food. I'm a fatty rice with meat alone, drink lemon tea ice..." Asep immediately walked towards the empty seat,
"Yep, I'll order Asep.." Gwen immediately walked towards the direction of the casier. In the cashier section, it turns out visitors order the menu, and immediately pay for it. Aldo shook his head to look at Asep, but then accompanied Gwen in a line of food,
