Rain Teach Me Strong
Duel

When the break came, the other students chose to scatter to the cafeteria, while Zee stepped alone to a place behind the school.

Marshall, who is with his friends, accidentally sees Zee walking alone.

Where the hell is he going?

Marshall's two beads follow Zee's steps, which turn to the back of the school. Marshall was curious about what Zee was doing behind the school.

"Bro, I'll go first, yes" Marshall said.

"Where?" Ask Didi, his friend.

"There is.." while running away from his friends.

Marshall hurried off and put his foot behind the school. He was really curious about Zee. Marshall's footsteps began to slow down, when he saw Zee sitting alone.

Zee sat alone under a shady tree, while reading a book in her hand, her body leaning against the tree trunk. In a place like this, it makes Zee feel much better than being in the school cafeteria and mingling with other students. Even in this place, there are rarely people passing by, because it is located behind the school, but sometimes there are students who hide behind the school just to spend a cigarette or a courtship and in this place the teachers will not know.

Zee spent her break there. Reading and writing short stories. Until a voice mengangetkan Zee who was focusing on reading.

"Whenever here? Alone anyway?" Cecar Marshall who stood looming in front of Zee.

Zee turned his head to look at Marshall for a moment, then Zee returned to focus on the book. Zee doesn't care about Marshall standing in front of him.

With no answer, Marshall sat down next to Zee.

"Why, are you sitting here? Under the shady tree. Are you afraid of this tree?" Said Marshall who is now leaning his back to the tree.

"No, it's ordinary."

"Why are you always so indifferent to me, why don't you ever join the others."

"As far as I am. Whether you want to have friends or not is none of your business" Zee said.

"Yes, it's none of my business. But why do you always cheat on me." Marshall repeated his question again as he looked at Zee's face from the side. Sweet face with oval face shape, eyes belo and thin lips.

"That's just your feeling all the time" said Zee glanced at Marshall who was staring at him, then Zee turned his face and looked back at his book.

"Maybe" said Marshall.

Both of them were silent and enjoyed the gentle breeze. The dried leaves fell from the branches. Marshall glanced back at Zee, who inexplicably made him become curious about the girl next to him.

"Marshall...!!" Liora's shout shocked Marshall.

Liora stared intently at Zee. His hunting breath held back his emotions, then in haste Liora stepped foot closer to Zee and Marshall. Liora knows the whereabouts of Marshall from Byan, because Byan saw where Marshall was going.

"Gapain you're here with another girl!" Hardik Liora with a nagging look.

"Not anymore. I just sat down and talked to him" Marshall replied. Then Liora's gaze diverted to Zee. Liora knitted her eyebrows together as she looked at the ordinary-looking Zee.

"You!! You're not a cafe heaven waitress?" Ketus Liora asked as her index finger pointed at Zee.

"Yes, " replied Zee honestly and there was no sense of inferiority at all. For him working in the cafe is halal work, different again if his job is like his mother.

"Himply, you took him away from that time" Liora told Marshall. " It turns out you cheated on her!" Allegations again.

"You said what the hell! Who is cheating. You don't want to recite it, "sarge Marshall.

"It's true you're both here." Liora remained with her opinion. What else had he seen Marshall's gaze so fixed on Zee's face.

"You misunderstood me!"

"Oh, I'm disappointed in you. You wickedly scolded me." Liora's shrieking voice held back a cry, then Liora left just like that.

"Why don't you chase your girl" Zee said.

"Leave it. Most free chase him, surely he will not be horrified my explanation."

"Even if you don't chase your girl, she must think that we have a relationship. Thas... Sana chase, woo her heart," tell Zee.

"Later on" he answered.

"Yes... It's up to you" said Zee, twisting his shoulder.

Then they both heard the bell ringing. Marshall and Zee rush away from the place and immediately enter the classroom.

***

When he was about to go home from school, Zee was stopped by Liora and her friends. Liora's gaze was so angry looking at Zee's face. While Zee still looks ordinary, because he is innocent.

"Hurry and take her to the toilet" Liora told her friends.

"OK," said Popi, and Liora's friends confronted Zee.

"Follow us," said Popi and his two friends blocked Zee's arm and pulled Zee to come with them.

"Deliver! I can walk on my own without having to be pulled like this," Zee said, but they're all no one to heed Zee's words.

Arriving at the toilet, Zee was immediately pulled in and followed by Liora.

"What do you want?" Ask Zee and try to stay calm.

PLAQUES

Zee staggered to the side due to getting a hard slap from Liora. Liora's gaze was so nagging that she looked at Zee, and the streak of anger was clearly visible.

Zee held onto her cheek that was twitching hot and sore. Then Zee straightened her body towards Liora.

"Look yeah! I'm warning you never again to take Marshall down!" Liora Gertak.

Zee smiled faintly hearing the bluff from Liora. "You're wrong. You and I are not who you accuse. I'm not the same guy as you!" Reply Zee with a word of affirmation.

"No decks! What is the evidence behind the school! You two sit together!" Liora's jolt of emotion.

" We were sitting together, but your guy suddenly grabbed me and sat down next to me. So you don't accuse me if I take your guy."

"Look...! I don't believe in you!"

"Yes it's up to you. Believe it or not, obviously I have nothing to do with your guy."

Then Zee got rid of one of her friends Liora and rushed away from them all, but was about to step up. Zee's body is pushed by Liora and Zee slumps to the floor.

Brug....

"Aw.." Zee screamed. Zee's forehead kissed the wall and her knees were bruised.

Zee still tried to calm down to face Liora and her friends, but this time Zee could no longer hold back her anger. For him this was already too much, it had even injured him.

Zee wakes up and stands upright, Zee staring intently at all of his friends Liora including his own Liora.
