Since The Fall Of Maglindo
Chapter 07: The Greatest Obstacle and Collapse of the Youth Dream

When getting a suspension for “forever”, I immediately decided to go home by taking a bag in class first. There, there was no more Grizelle who was calm or crying, no more Grizelle who studied in the break, and there was no more of her things left on her chair and desk. Even though he exists, it does not mean that I will quickly immediately express my apology, and it does not mean that he will accept it either. So I chose to leave school with my original purpose of coming here.

Until I was completely out of the school area, there was no one to stop me from leaving. After all I have no one to accept such treatment, other than a few people who have their own interests.

Unlike yesterday, I didn't stop by the cafe where Grizelle works. Until I got back home, I couldn't think clearly about what I was supposed to do. Being asked the bad good, what I experienced was worse, only if it could be overcome, it would be too good.

When I was inside the house, I hurried to pick up my phone and sat on the sofa in my own room. Picking it, what I chose was the phone-shaped app icon with a green background. There, I chose to call my mother after finding her number without needing to shift the screen a lot. It didn't take long, finally someone picked up the phone call I sent.

Actually it was obvious the owner of the phone whose number I was heading to picked it up quickly, because I was also not the type of person to call just to ask the news, but to convey something to know.

The first voice I heard was a young woman, the opening line also came from her. As she, my sister, Yuna, said “Halo, Big Brother!”, I just brought the phone closer to the ear.

“Where is mom?”

“Mother? If mom is away, just.”

“Then why is the phone on you?”

“Eeeeee, it's a long story.”

“Oh, okay. If you're home don't forget to call me again, okay?”

If it is considered unimportant, Yuna likes to deliberately forget it. He was basically not forgetful, but just focused on everything that was pleasing to him. So actually, I'm not expecting him to call me again, because that's how it's going to be.

“Okeee—“

I turned off the phone right away before she was done with her okay.

While other strange things of course there are many, very many to the point that my mind is confused to think which one first. It's just that of all that, what interests me the most Grizelle explained. He subconsciously told me that he was the key to everything I wanted. Anyway, I have to get her, she is really worth it to stand beside me.

When I had thought about things for a long time just by looking at the floor, I began to know what I could do. But it's impossible for now, I mean, I intend to see Grizelle again at school secretly. It's just that as I've confirmed before, it's likely that he's been sent home now. So I intend to see him tomorrow when he comes in.

Of course I know I'm being suspended. However, if you remember the words of Mr. December that is “You are free to do any way” then maybe I can still set foot into school. With notes, can not take lessons in class.

Maybe so, my own suspension has never been experienced, so the way it works is quite confusing.

Although there were some things that made me doubt, I still intend to visit the school tomorrow. Until I ended up spending a lot of time just inside the house, I could not wait for what kind of groove would happen to me.

Before nightfall, all I did was call my mother back to tell her I was being suspended. Even though I knew the news would make my mother scold me, there were still some other important things to say. However, again the one who raised him was my brother, the opening sentence was the same. And like before, she said that mom was leaving, so I hung up and threw her really hard on the bed.

Until finally it was time to go to sleep, no phone calls could be heard from the phone I had placed beside my head. Not wanting to waste time thinking about the futile thing, I immediately decided to go to bed and wake up in the morning without experiencing Sleep Paralysis for the second time.

Waking up when it happens when the clock shows 5 o'clock past a few minutes. Although it was not the time I would use to go to school, I still took a bath to refresh my body and mind. And it was really effective, because I could linger waiting for the clock to move to the angle I had determined.

During that time, I just played with my phone to check out the school forum which contained a lot of information. Like the locations for certain places, I just memorize in that section, because knowing it will be very useful later.

In addition to location, I also had time to join the chat group of first year students. There are many messages sent within 1 minute, the type is also diverse such as asking for news, promotions, even someone wrote, “Will anyone want to date me?” It's just that unfortunately no one answered, in short ignored.

At least that's how it is, most mornings I just spend on it. Until finally on the screen the top right corner of the phone shows at 9:48, which means a second break will soon arrive.

Actually for the record, I did deliberately not leave along with the others, I mean the morning before the first lesson was about to begin. Because by doing so, there are many risks that could happen to me. Indeed, there are certainly advantages to leaving early because it can meet with Grizelle at a time that is also early in the morning where most students have not come, it's just that I didn't think that he would come at such a time. Wh why? Since it was obvious he would choose to avoid me, hiding behind the crowd while the class was crowded was the best time so I couldn't mess with him. And of course Sherly must have told him what kind of punishment I'm running, plus Sherly's a smart guy so she's going to read up on all the possibilities.
