Joe William

Joe William
It was just Joe


...Kota Batu University...


That morning, before class, Joe was seen walking from the parking lot to the campus cafeteria.


His lethargic song is very visible from his style of walking. With his hands hanging on the strap of his side hanger bag, he walked without caring about the people who were glancing at him. I don't know where that bottle of old drink came from. But for sure, that was what he kicked from the parking area, all the way to the cafeteria so that a cheering sound could be heard along the road he was passing. Maybe that's why he's getting people's attention.


When he arrived under a shade tree under which the tree had a seat, Joe immediately bent down to pick up the empty can. He immediately tossed the can up, then.., like the best goalkeeper in football, he kicked the can to the chirp. But unfortunately, once the can is floating, then it smoothly landed on the glass of the car belonging to the university rector who had just entered the campus area.


"Dead me Mak!" Joe said and immediately hid behind the tree trunk.


Suddenly the car belonging to the Rector who was about to go to the special parking lot stopped. And now, from the inside looked the old man with the head of a plontos out of the car while pecking.


"Who did this, huh?" Ask the Rector while shaking his waist.


All the students and students who saw the incident did not dare to answer. They just simultaneously looked at the shade tree and then, they simultaneously pointed to one point, the shade tree.


"What a shame. With Tiara still unreconciled, the task that I gave either worked out or not, now a new problem has come to pass" Joe murmured inwardly.


"Who did this, huh? Get out and meet me at the office! Or, I'll get you out of this university!" Snapped the plontos-headed man. For a moment his mouth muttered, then went back inside his car and moved towards a special parking area.


Joe claws his head in disarray.


Satisfied with his actions just now, he immediately came out from behind the tree while followed by funny looks from all the students who were there.


"What smile? Tonjok just found out!" Maki Joe is upset. But no one cares about the meaning. He was again laughed at. This made Joe laugh too.


Meanwhile, Namora only notices when Joe gets the calamity he was deliberately looking for. Namora did not flinch.


While shaking her head, Namora turned her back to Joe, then rushed to her class.


Currently, Joe has arrived at the door of the Rector's office.


I swear by anything, that right now he's really hesitant. Just run away, or knock on the door.


In the doubt, Joe was also forced to knock on the door of the Rector's office.


Tok tock..!


"Lake in!" Sound of command.


"Ma-sorry sir. Here I come!"


"Oh. Do you have a problem. If I may know, which school is this kid from?" Ask the Rector who did not know that the young man who came was the one who made his car glass almost broke.


"I'm a student from the department of business management!" Answer Joe.


"Oh. Does this kid have any complaints or is there anything to say?"


"No complaints, sir. It is my father who complains because of me!"


The Rector was frowning at Joe's answer just now.


"You mean?"


"So I accidentally kicked an empty can of used drinks. Then, the can landed on my father's car!" Answer Joe. He almost laughed as well because of his flirting just now.


"So you're that prankster, huh? You're iniiii....!"


The Rector stood up, then grabbed Joe's ear.


"Amfk sir. I insyaf!"


"Goddessa.., insyaf. Next time, not in public. Understood!"


"I understand Sir. I won't be doing it again anytime soon!"


"What do you mean by the word in the near future?"


"I mean, I won't do it again. I promise you sir!"


"Yes already. Now, as punishment for what you did, you go wash my car clean. There's no class for you before you clean my car. Remember that! If it blisters again, watch out for you!" Threaten the Rector.


"I'm taking the punishment!" Reply Joe resigned.


"Now, work!"


"Well Sir!" Joe immediately saluted, then he immediately left the Rector's office.


...*********...


Joe now really feels the real free sport.


Just imagine! That he lifted two buckets of water at once from the public toilet, took him forward to wash the car owned by the rector. That's just tired. Not yet ashamed of it. Because, sometimes the pain is nothing compared to the shame that can be.


"This is because of my insolence. Just find a job!" Maki Joe in her heart. He continued to do the punishment work. Sweat had soaked the shirt he was wearing. The smell of perfume was mixed with the smell of sweat. Not to mention the sun had already started to rise and burn his skin.


After everything was done he did, Joe started tossing the bucket he used to transport water earlier. He wanted to kick the bucket. But when he remembered what else the trouble was about to arise, he immediately canceled his intention. But, the bucket that soared earlier instead fell and precisely bent his head.


Joe lifted up the bucket that was gouging his head. For a moment he looked left and right. "Thankfully no one was watching!" He said with gratitude.


Joe walked lethargicly to the public restroom on campus.


Irritated, he slammed the bucket, then intended to head to the parking area. Mood learned it was gone. So he decided to go back to the rock.


"Joe. Wait!"


Not to mention Joe was far away, suddenly one voice held back his steps.


Joe immediately looked towards the direction of the voice. Now, he saw Jericho half-running towards him.


"Joe. Did you hear about Tiara's plan to conduct an investigation with some of the students at our college?" Jericho asked as soon as he arrived near Joe.


Joe raised his eyebrows, then shook his head in response to a question.


"Let's just talk there Joe!" Take Jericho directly ahead of Joe to the park.


"Say what's wrong?" Joe asked, who was beginning to wonder.


"Lookin' Joe. Lately, fishermen in Kuala Nipah have all screamed. They can no longer get caught in the sea. If they want to catch fish, then they have to be far away!"


"So?" Ask Joe then.


"Well. At the request of the people there, Tiara and several nature-loving and related students took the initiative to conduct an investigation. What is the cause of the fish being kept away. They will learn everything. If there is evidence of pollution, then they want to know what pollutes the Kuala Nipah sea, and where the center is. After knowing everything, and getting evidence, then they will complain about this to the local government,"


"Oh so!" Joe replied, not surprised at all.


"You don't want to help them Joe? Me and the J7 kids are coming down to help them!"


"Why am I helping the work that I already know the source of the problem. It's just gonna be a waste of my time. Let them do it. After the turmoil, I just moved. That way, once paddled, two three four islands were surpassed!" Joe said in his heart.


"You haven't answered Joe!"


"Eh. I wasn't. I won't help Tiara and J7. But you guys don't worry! I'll fund your investigation. How's it?" Joe asked while waiting for a response from Jericho.


There was a ripple of disappointment on Jericho's face hearing Joe's reply. But he forced to smile.


"Well if so. I'll go first!" Jericho said that just left Joe.


"The time is near. But Tiara and her comrades must be in danger. I have to protect Tiara! Got to!!!" Joe said in his heart.


Seriate...
