I'm Still in High School
Chapter 52 Express Your Feelings!
The orphanage's mother was a little surprised to hear the introduction from Barra, and Gwen just lowered her head in embarrassment. But quickly, Asih's mother threw away her shock, and the middle-aged apruh woman kept smiling looking at Barra, then looking at Gwen, she said,
"It turns out that Gwen is married.why not tell Bu Asih... Congratulations, not many, young people are now choosing to justify their relationship. Many even go the wrong way, preferring to live together with a partner, without the strings of marriage." Bu Asih responded kindly to the introduction. Gwen just smiled shyly, not wanting to say much.
"Thank you Asih ma'am. My wife is still in high school, so it could be a bad thing, if our marital status is spread. Well. however we are in Indonesia bu Asih.. can not accept married high school children." with a smile, Barra seemed to know the anxiety that Gwen felt. The man told the orphanage's female caregiver.
"Well son Barra, neither will you interfere. Honest .. even grateful mother, in a young age, son Gwen has dared to establish a commitment with nak Barra. You guys are a good match, a tiny girl, and a pretty one. While this Barra boy, handsome and handsome too. You are indeed a very harmonious couple." kindly, Ms. Asih responded to Barra's words.
The orphanage's mother and Barra ended up in a serious conversation. Even Gwen followed the three small children into the living room, and it was seen that some children were studying with the help of older brothers who often came to the orphanage to volunteer. Barra did not reprimand or restrain Gwen, and let her into the room.

Gardenia Hills
Aldo seemed to be careless, and Asep and Raffi who accompanied the young man could only sigh at letting him. The two young men knew what was causing Aldo's anger. The young man was jealous of a man named Barra, who had a fight with Aldo last night. But because Gwen herself felt indifferent and ignored, finally Aldo who still felt his legs hurt could only vent his anger.
"Asep.. find out who the man named Barra really is! Is he really from the Gwen family, other than Om Andrew or who...?" the command flowed from Aldo's mouth. Asep and Raffi looked at each other, and finally the two agreed to nod their heads.
"Okay Aldo. But we both think it would not hurt if you expressed the feelings you felt for Gwen. Before there was another man who first expressed his feelings for the girl.." Asep carefully gave the young man some advice.
"Has it not been clear my attitude all this time to Gwen....?? I try to keep my distance from any girl, and always try to be next to Gwen, if she's in trouble or in trouble. Which girl can't feel, if all my attitude is an expression of my love.." Aldo's getting cranky, though,
Asep and Raffi were silent, they were waiting for a gap where they could go in to talk to their best friend. They did not want to cut out Aldo's words, because it would be able to provoke his anger even more. A few moments later...
"Aldo. not all we can only express by actions alone guys.need the words of commitment, which indicates if both parties have agreed, both agreed to continue the relationship.. I don't think it's bad, if you immediately convey your love to Gwen..." Raffi finally responded. Beside the young man, Asep nodded his head in approval to his friend's words.
While Aldo was silent, the man scribbled the HVS paper in front of him using a blue marker. Asep and Raffi do not want to disturb his best friend, because they know the magnitude of Aldo's love for Gwen. Only the girl can melt Aldo's heart, and the two have always been together. Almost the whole school also knows and understands, if they are lovers. But the real thing is just delusion and desire from Aldo.
"Hempph. Recall... Gwen represents our school, for the Physics and Chemistry Olympics in the country of Uncle Sam. Even for the Graduation Exam alone, Gwen did it at Embassy..." Raffy reminded.
"Damn it. Why can I forget it. Arrange everything at Halim Perdana Kusuma airport tomorrow afternoon. Gwen must have used her family's private jet, so it'll take off from Halim airport..." Aldo immediately resumed his orders.
"Ready..." Asep and Raffi only agreed to the order, because if they denied it then the young man would definitely be furious with them. It is undeniable, Asep especially can school at The Intercultural School, because getting school funding assistance from his father Aldo.

Hidayah Orphanage...
After together doing Maghrib prayers with congregation in the orphanage, Gwen and Barra finally say goodbye to go home. Not to forget, when Barra said goodbye it turned out that the man left a check sheet on the table, and saw the nominal listed, Bu Asih as the manager of the small orphanage was wide-eyed.
"I apologize in advance, Mr. Barra... Is this number not too big, I'm afraid to accept it mas. mbak..." Bu Asih felt shaky, trying to return the check sheet to the couple. The five hundred million figure for the middle-aged woman, was a number that was very much waiting for her.
Gwen looked at her husband, because she also did not know how many rupiahs her husband had given to Hidayah orphanage.
"Bu Asih. Don't look at that nominal number ma'am. Let's just say, it wasn't a favor from Barra or Gwen ma'am. Not only are these orphanages bu, but also in some countries, we also have social foundations.." Barra explained, that the woman would accept help from him.
"Then, if in the future, this orphanage still needs help, for example, want to renovate the building, provide furniture or anything, do not hesitate to Asih. Tell Gwen, I will transfer all the needs of this orphanage." continued Barra with a smile.
"Alright son, because this help is for the sustainability of the orphanage, not for private mothers. Thank you son, I'll take it.." nervously and trembling, Bu Asih finally accepted the favor.
Barra smiled and nodded his head, then took his wife Gwen to return to their home. With some caretakers, and foster children, the couple got into their car.
