Sweet Curse
Love

After the bell breaks, Wendy and Zoya approach Lisa first. "You want to go to the cafeteria together?"

"You really want to, but can I not sit with you guys? I haven't had time to say goodbye to my friend."

"Of course." Zoya replies with a smile. "You can call me Zoya."

Lisa understood. "You can call me Lisa." Then they both held Lisa's hand. When they were close to the door, Juna suddenly said something.

"Good job." He said before going out ahead of them.

"Woah.. Did you hear that just now?" Zoya asked in disbelief. "Tell me honestly, you have any relationship with Juna." Zoya's urging on Lisa.

"We have no relationship whatsoever. We're just in the same club." Obviously Lisa, because it's true they have absolutely no relationship.

"You can also taekwondo?" Wendy was quite surprised that Lisa was not only good at academics.

"I'm still a rookie. By the way, would it be pa-pa if we weren't him too?" Appoint Lisa to a student who is still in class.

"Your max love? Just leave him alone. Right now it looks like he's upset." Zoya.

"I regret why? Did the test score go down? Or maybe she doesn't like me joining here?"

"Absolutely. Actually, the kids already know that Juna had to defend you in the teacher's room. You know that Love really likes Juna, because it seems like he sees you as his rival. Let alone seeing the difference in treatment you get from Juna."

"I think I should straighten this out."

"For what? Juna and Love have no relationship at all."

"But I don't want him to misunderstand me."

"You're a good boy." Praise Wendy. Makes Lisa's face flushed with embarrassment.

After arriving at the canteen, they decided to separate according to the initial agreement. There Lisa has also seen Jeslyn at the table with her other classmates.

Juna gave the results of Lisa's answer sheet which was previously done in a special class at the principal. Actually the one who asked Lisa to join the special class was herself.

It's not without reason that Juna did this. He did all this for Lisa too. The headmaster insisted on not believing in the friendship of the two as Juna said.

To make the principal believe, Juna proposed this. But it doesn't seem like it's enough. Since Juna has already started, then he will be in charge until the end. He'll try to convince the principal that he and Lisa are indeed friends.

"Why do you look so worried?" Ask the headmaster who saw the look on Juna's face that was not focused on his whereabouts now. This was the first time he had lost his focus while facing her.

"I?" Ask Juna who seems unaware that his mind is somewhere else.

"Forget over. Then you can go."

Juna bowed in small salute before leaving.

"wait. You should go home today. Your mother wants you to be home."

Juna stopped his steps and turned towards the headmaster.

"Unfortunately I can't leave today. And sorry, she's not my mother. Excuse me."

Juna walked out of the principal's room quietly. Both are a father and son, but after the departure of his mother, the two never get along.

Not only did Juna not get along, he never set foot into the place they called home again. He would never do it.

Lisa sits next to Jeslyn and puts her lunch plate on the table. "Not so bad. The class wasn't as dark as I thought."

"Obviously the class wasn't bad. You're surrounded by the heirs of a rich family, plus they're all handsome and pretty. You're like you're in a diamond field."

Lisa agreed. Everyone in the class looked so good. Lisa had been insecure before if Wendy and Zoya did not invite him to talk casually.

Perhaps you could say their brains are now at the same level, but what about the condition of their families? How can children raised by office employees and also housewives seem to be paired with wealthy single heirs.

"Do you think I can hang out with them?"

Jeslyn nodded confidently. "Of course you can. If necessary during the break you can be with them. No need to hang with us." Rose and Jihan also nodded in agreement.

"You sure?"

Jeslyn nodded again. "Partially, if you manage to get close to them it will be a jackpot for you. They have a lot of connections, so your future will be more secure. If you're friends, don't hesitate to introduce them to us." Jeslyn raised her eyebrows staring at Lisa.

Lisa only sneered her lips when she realized what Jeslyn meant. "So you're using me?"

Jeslyn shook her index finger in front of Lisa's face. "No, no, no honey. What we're talking about here is strategy and taking chances. So, good luck."

"Forget the connection. I will only be friends with them if they also want to be friends with me."

"of course. That's the most important."

After finishing their lunch, Lisa decided to return to class. He could no longer hear Jeslyn's rant about crazy ideas getting connections. Even they are still tenth grade, why have you thought about business?

Not knowing what to do in class, Lisa opened her writing book and started doodling. Drawing an animal that knows nothing. Because Lisa likes animals, let alone unique animals that she may have never met.

"What is a red panda?" Lisa was shocked when she found Love was next to her.

"Yes. How the hell did you know? I'm just describing the origin."

Love shakes small. "You describe it well."

"Thank you." Lisa's reply to the compliment of Love.

"I'm afraid you're close to Juna."

True too, Love likes Juna. This seems like a good time to clear up this misunderstanding. "Not at all."

"..."

"We're just friends like everyone else. We're one club and I asked him to teach me how to learn. You know he's a good teacher." Reply Lisa who still follows Juna's scenario. It seems like he will keep this lie to death.

"But Juna will not accept the requests of people who are not close to him."

"Of course he didn't let it go easy. You don't know how hard I begged him to teach me. She's so... Ye know? A little haughty."

Love is understanding. He began to believe Lisa's words. "You want to be friends with me?" Bring along. It made Lisa quite surprised when she heard it.

"Of course." Lisa was enthusiastic.

"good. Then from now on we'll be friends."
