ORION
Meet Lily
The schoolgirl looked overjoyed as she waved her hand at an Orion. Orion felt pain in his chest because he did not expect to see the child now.
“Did he also have NED?” One thing is for sure, this is what was going through his mind.
“Lily, she's the same age as you, so just call her name, Ori. I see, huh?” said the teacher.
“I'm sorry. Maybe you saw it wrong, you might think that I am your uncle because it looks similar?” orion thought with a smile.
Judging by the look on Lily's face, the schoolgirl who called her uncle became moody. Lily thinks that Orion is the person in question because it looks similar. Clearly they knew each other when Orion was in a state of disrepair, just before he died.
Lily always comes home every school to the place where Orion is alone every day. Every day they met, Lily was also the one who always comforted him. But Orion is different now, even with his form when he was a child, he is no longer the same as those who are alive.
Seeing Lily not grow even though 20 years have passed, is it possible that Lily also experienced the same thing? But Lily did not show any significant changes.
He is the same as before, which is why Orion hesitates to say his greeting. Orion had to pretend because if he didn't, then bad things would happen. Not to mention Endy, the motive for the crime is still unclear.
It just so happened that the bench near Lily was empty, so Orion sat there. Little did he think that he was sitting next to his friend.
“Are you sure? Don't know me?” lily asked with a sad face.
“I told you not to. Besides, there's a little uncle like this, right?” answer with a bland laugh.
Lily was holding hands on the table. Sad to hear a disappointing answer. Orion can't do anything for now, the most important thing is to keep the children from getting involved with the chaos that might happen.
Orion was always on high alert. Since entering this school to see all the teachers in the room. Notice clearly that there's no Endy there.
“Well, I hope he's actually around. Not in this school,” Inner Orion.
Right after the start of the lesson, someone flashed from the classroom. Seen from the window, a man with a haircut was walking somewhere. At first glance Orion felt something and was right when he saw it.
“That man ..”
Seeing him could not make Orion stand still. He got up and said to go to the back room as an excuse. In fact, he went to follow the man, it turns out the premonition that had been felt never wrong.
Orion who used to avoid every problem is actually currently doing the opposite.
“Quiet I just make sure.”
He quietly stepped slowly following the man. His heart was beating so fast, cold sweat was pouring out that his breathing was heavy as he got closer to him.
Feels so intense. The presence of an NED fighter. Orion could no longer escape the situation.
The school hallway also felt empty. Of course, it was only morning, the start of the first lesson and occupied all the students and teachers who taught them.
Orion was unable to step on the shadow of Endy who suddenly stopped moving. Reflek, Orion hit his back and then shouted.
“Ah, sorry, sir! I was not accidentally!”
In a hurry, those words were thrown out. Endy looked at him.
“Ya, it's okay.” Speak kindly while sitting crouching, aligning the position between them with Orion.
Orion was surprised by him. He was silent with a confused face while holding his forehead.
Orion realizes this man has a scar on the same temple. It is not surprising that this bad feeling has come true. Like a fortune teller, Orion was thinking that this man would do something to him in a moment.
“I don't matter. Is your own father okay?” orion asked with guilt.
“It's okay, really. But next time be careful. Oh, yeah isn't learning already started?”
“Sorry, sir. I wanted to go to the toilet. In my hurry I ran and accidentally hit my father. Once again forgive me,” Orion said sincerely while bowing his head.
This man looks ordinary at first glance. Is it because of his ability? No, Orion felt absolutely nothing but inner pressure when he came face to face with Endy.
“Not a problem. Then, the toilet is at the end of this hallway.” Endy pointed towards the back of Orion.
Orion looked back and came face to face with Endy. This time he had to do something, to buy time.
“Bapak is also a teacher here?” Orion asked but in contrast to his current heart that said otherwise.
Maybe this guy is a teacher. And it's guaranteed that Endy won't be telling the truth so that his lies will be assured. Plus he holds the class agenda book, explaining that he is a real teacher.
“Yes, of course. Father is a teacher.”
Orion's conjecture was proven in an instant. But one thing that is underestimated by Endy, is not suspecting himself as a new student at school.
Endy didn't ask about Orion at all. That means Endy has not long been disguised as a schoolteacher.
“Ah, so yes. Then thank you.”
There is no time to continue to investigate the truth. Orion resigns and intends to meet someone who also works under the Arutala Group.
Endy nodded her head while smiling at Orion. The face may be deceiving but not with the heart. Endy won't be forever undercover aimlessly here.
Whatever the way, Orion had to pry something about him. Such as what power they have, the motive of crime or other things.
“It would be dangerous if I were frank with him. Especially with a child's body like this, he won't be easy to believe.”
Orion apparently also realized that the line of his sentence will change the view of everyone around. Because the sentence is always complicated let alone thrown directly by small children.
“From now on I have to change my attitude so as not to be too suspicious, yes.” Orion muttered as he let out a tired sigh.
“Orion, have you been to the toilet? Not lost, is it?” asked the bespectacled teacher to Orion who was standing still on the door leaf.
“Almost, mom. I also had time to stray to another class.”
The teacher breathed a sigh of relief seeing Orion behaving normally as usual. His way of speaking that remains polite but acts like a child at his age is no longer suspected.
“Mommy should take you, yes. Then sit down and write down what's on the board, Orion.”
Orion nodded back to his seat. Then taking out the book and stationery, as his finger was about to move to write something down, he felt something in his eyes.
“Duh, this is why, yes?”
Orion rubbed his eyes until it was watering. He was flickering something whether it was dust or something else. But he looks dazed. Orion felt like he had forgotten something today.
