Love Lanterns
CHAPTER 13

"Arra, are you okay? Did Seila hurt you?" ask Zhen.

"I'm fine, brother, thank you for helping me. I guess big brother doesn't trust me" Arra replied as she clasped his hand tightly.

"You are, of course I trust you! I've known Seila's nature for a long time. He does like to do evil to anyone." explains Zhen.

"Eh, Brother Zhen has known Seila for a long time?"

"Yes, back in elementary school, Seila and I were a school. The first time I met her, she was an innocent and humble girl. But as he moved on little by little, he became arrogant and evil to anyone"

"So he was a good boy? Why did it suddenly turn evil?" asked Arra in surprise.

"I don't know, probably because of a mismanagement. That's why Seila is like that.."

"It feels.. There's something strange about all this. It is hard to understand but also hard to explain.. Though a little suspicious, I can't do anything first." Arra thought.

"Fra? Why daydream?"

"Ah yes sorry brother.. I'm just.. Think of something"

"It's okay, oh yeah tonight is there time? I want to take you somewhere. A place where you'll always remember even if you won't be here forever." asked Zhen.

"Yes, Brother Zhen is lucky. I have some free time tonight so we can go." Arra said with a smile.

"alright.. Let's go back to class"

Thanks to Zhen, Arra became a little calm about the matter with Seila earlier. If the one that came was not Zhen, maybe Arra would get into trouble.

"Thank you for that, brother. If sister wasn't there maybe I'd be ruined by Seila" Arra said.

"That's no big deal" Zhen replied with a smile.

Arra also entered his class. He saw Seila was not in his seat. He breathed a sigh of relief because Seila was not in the classroom. If it was impossible Seila would act recklessly again.

"Fra? What the hell's going on? Why just finished? Then where did Seila go? You're just alone?" ben asked when he saw Arra coming in.

"I.. Seila and I had a little problem. Then Seila left first I thought she was in the classroom was not yet" explained Arra.

"really? But are you okay? Seila didn't hurt you, did she?" ben asks while worrying about Arra.

"Yes, I'm fine. Fortunately, there was Brother Zhen helping me"

"Zhen Dicky's? You were helped by him?" asked Ben while frowning.

"Yes.. Why?"

"Er is okay" said Ben as he approached his chair.

"Well.. All right then" Arra also sat in his place.

The second lesson went well. During the learning Seila has not yet come and it makes Arra confused to explain to the maple teacher who teaches. After the break, Seila just showed up to the class. All the friends of friends asked about where Seila had gone all that time?. Of course they were confused by Seila's disappearance during the lesson.

"Seila?? Why did you just come back? Did you go with Arra? Why did Arra come alone to the classroom while you disappeared?" ask Yana, Seila's best friend.

".... L'm... It was called by the teacher to help her take care of something." Seila replied as she looked coldly at Arra's face.

"Eh? Why is Seila looking at me? Is he trying to blame me? But it's all his fault." murmured Arra.

"really? If anything happens you should tell me, I will definitely help you!" said Yana.

"Arraa" waved Reiva from outside the door.

"Reiva's? What's up?" reply Arra while walking closer towards Reiva.

"May you ask for help? I'm a bit in trouble" Reiva took Arra's hand and left.

"Hei Seila, you were going with Arra and you disappeared. I was really worried if you were hurt by Arra earlier. But.. Did Arra really not hurt you?" whispered Yana.

"Wana.. Actually, Arra was pushing me up the stairs.. Huhu.." again Seila accused Arra of committing crimes against her.

"I don't know, when I came out of the teacher's room I accidentally saw Brother Zhen and wanted to greet him... Then somehow Arra pushed me up the stairs and approached Brother Zhen.. Arra instead went with Brother Zhen and left me alone.. I still didn't want to go back to class. So I hid inside the UKS while treating my wounds.. Hiks.."

"What?? Turns out Arra was that cruel? You should have told me earlier! How could he do such a thing? Isn't he the heir to a famous family? Why is his behavior so evil! I can't take it if you're treated like this Seila!" yana said, who was upset with Arra.

"Huhoo.. Janas... You don't be like that.. Arra is the heir of the Ze family, we can't do anything to him. "reply Seila while pretending to cry.

"Huh! You think because he's an heir to a rich family we can't do anything to him? You're too good to be hurt by a bad woman like Arra! I'll help you take revenge on Arra!" yana said while holding her hand.

"Heh... Arra look! The more you hate, the better your reputation will be! Haha.. It's good to hear that if you fall down and ruin all your reputation!." muttered Seila.

MEANWHILE

Reiva pulls Arra's hand towards the toilet. There was Erika, Dea, and Levy waiting.

"?? is?Why are you all gathered here? Do I have any debts with you?" asked Arra in annoyance.

"Arra, relax.. We may have owed you. If you have, we will definitely pull you to the mall to treat all of us. Hahahaa.." Dea said with a laugh.

"Er okay.. So what's gathered here?" ask Arra.

"Regarding Seila's matter earlier, I suspect something a little. Like there's something a mystery that's hard to figure out." Levy thought.

"Hey Levy! I know you're smart! But we, we fools, understand what you're saying! Don't use proverbs when talking to us!!" gerutu Reiva's.

"What's? I just said what I wanted to say" Levy replied casually.

"Leviy!!! Don't make me mad!" pissed Reiva.

"Ep.. Friends friends.. Classes will start soon.. So then... Don't waste time." Erika's crack.

"true too.. If it continues here, it seems unsafe. How about we get together tonight? Once we got together together." said Dea.

"Well" Levy, Erika, and Reiva answered.

"Eh uh.. I can't come tonight. I have my own show" Arra replied.

"Wow Arra! I can't believe your relationship with Ben has gone well." Dea said with sparkling eyes.

"Tu wait, why are you talking about Ben? Later that night I was invited by Brother Zhen to go somewhere" explained Arra.

"Sir Zhen??? Who's she?" sontak Dea was surprised because he thought it was Ben but it wasn't.

"Brother of PB Club's bimmers" Levy replied.

"Arra, are you related to Brother Zhen?" ask Erika.

"There's nothing between us. I accepted Brother Zhen's offer because he helped me earlier. Are you from the kepo club?" arra's eyes looked at his friend while angry.

"Aha.. So then.. Mm so yeah, well okay please don't get angry Arra. We don't know if Brother Zhen invited you" Dea replied nervously.

"Wait first.. Brother Zhen are you referring to Zhen Dicky?" Reiva asked with a serious look.

"Of course, who else is Dicky's surname here?" reply Dea.

"What's the Re? Did something happen to you and Brother Zhen?" ask Arra.

"Haha.. Well.. How I'm going to start.. Zhen Dicky is my adoptive cousin" said Reiva.

"What's? Really true??" sontak Arra, Dea, Levy and Erika are shocked. Of course because Reiva didn't tell them from the beginning. It was only natural that they were surprised that the popular disciple turned out to be his adoptive cousin Reiva's older brother.

"Of course, so here it is. My parents have dumped me on my aunt and don't consider me her son anymore. Maybe because I'm useless and just bothering them. Then my aunt felt sorry for me because my aunt was unable to care for me and take care of me lovingly. Bibi decided to take me to Heldy's family to have me adopted and considered her own daughter there. And that's where Heldy's family loves me with all their love. Zhen Dicky was the third son of my foster mother's brother. I didn't know that Zhen was here at school. Actually I was forbidden to mention foster parents by my papa mama. They really think of me as their real child. Unlike my biological parents who left me.." Reiva explained while looking up.

Just this time Reiva explained his identity to others. He never explained it to anyone for fear that no one would ever want to be friends with him again if they all knew his true identity. What will happen may be that they are insulting because they have been dumped by their biological parents.

"I'm really sorry, friend! I accidentally told you my story. Hahaa just think of it as just a passing wind. I don't want you to hear it. That's... Too low if everyone knows.." Reiva looked back at the sky on the roof of the toilet. He always thought that he.. Real weak.. And in the end all will know about his identity that is so inferior.
