THE TRACK!
Ariana put her fork and spoon on the plate. Only half of him ate his food, he felt like he was reluctant to continue eating again. One thing made her feel this way, because she was at the dinner table all by herself.
From a distance, Uncle Will noticed that something was wrong. He then approached Ariana and said, "What's the matter, Big Madam? Is the food not to taste?"
"No, it's just that something's bothering me. I wanted to talk to Vicky, but he didn't come home until he missed dinner. Though he is not usually like this," replied Ariana with a tone of anxiety and frowning.
"Ah, actually Mr. Vicky is back. He said he had eaten outside with Sherina, so he didn't come to dinner with you."
"What?! Where is he now?!" asked Ariana in a high tone. He felt offended that Vicky was acting this way to him. He went home but did not preach it.
"Mr Vicky was in his reading room as usual" replied Uncle Will with his head bowed. He knew that the answer he gave would make Ariana angry.
"Vicky! It turns out he's there!" Ariana got out of her chair, then hurriedly walked to her son's reading room.
"Hhhh ...." Uncle Will sighed softly, he stared at the dining table where there was a lot of food that was still intact. "Once again not spent, a person like a mistress really does not appreciate food. And it seems, this food will be eaten by the servants again. Either I should be grateful or what ...."
On the other hand Ariana had arrived at the door of the reading room Vicky, instead of knocking on the door or saying an excuse, she just barged in. "Vicky, I want to talk!" his yell.
Again, Ariana was shocked. Because he saw that Vicky was sitting next to Sherina. He felt increasingly burning, really unwilling to see the closeness of the two of them. Though want as close as possible is their own right as husband and wife.
"What's the matter, Mom? Why yell?" ask Vicky in a tinge. He did not like his mother's attitude.
"What is Sherina doing here with you?!" ask Ariana back.
"I asked Sherina to be here. And I'm gonna tell you what I meant to look for me, you said you wanted to talk, what do you want to talk about?" ask Vicky who was starting to be lazy to serve his mother.
"Jeez ..," Ariana realized that her current affairs were more important than berating Sherina. He then stepped closer to be more comfortable talking to Vicky. "Mom wants something back with you, it's about Velix."
"The velix? Why is he?"
"So afternoon I got a call from his homeroom classmate Velix. He said Velix was in trouble, he was fighting with a classmate. And again, the boy who fought with Velix turned out to be the son of a member of parliament. Then the homeroom teacher said that the mother had to come to fulfill the student's guardian's call. But, dealing with the country's top officials was troublesome. So Vicky, you're the only one going to school to represent mom. Please sort out the trouble your sister made, yes!" pinta Ariana with a pushy tone.
Vicky was silent for a moment, he thought if the matter was serious enough. He then let out a long sigh as he said, "Alright, I'll be the one to take the place of Mother fulfilling the disciple's guardian's call."
"Good! You are indeed a reliable mother's son!" ariana said with a smile of satisfaction. He felt that one of the burdens of his mind had diminished.
However, Ariana did not leave even though her needs were over. He was still standing on the spot and staring sinisterly at Sherina. "Curtain, what are you here for? You better go! Don't bother Vicky doing his job!"
"Why should I go? I'm here to help Vicky tidy up and take care of some paperwork. At least my existence here is of any use. I'm not a person who likes to burden others!" replied Sherina with a piercing tone.
"You ...!!" Ariana was at a loss for words. He was shocked and inexhaustible if Sherina dared to answer and even quipped back at him. "What do you mean say that, huh?! You said I was burdening Vicky?! I'm his mother!"
"I never said that, you yourself just said it," Sherina said with a cynical grin, as if she was ready to challenge Ariana to a fight.
"You! How dare you answer me! You want to fight me, huh?!" snapped Ariana whose neck veins until visible. She was actually made blackboard by Sherina.
"Humph! All right, mom's gone!" Ariana left immediately with a feeling of frustration. He was very upset that Sherina had dared to fight him, even in front of Vicky. However, he was even more upset that his son was instead defending the daughter-in-law he hated. He could only vent his frustration by tightly closing the door.
BRAAKK!
"Haissh ...," Vicky pressed the base of his own nose. He felt dizzy with the behavior of his mother who likes to make a scene. "Sherina, please don't take heart my mother's words just now."
"Yes, I understand. It's okay, I understand why your mother's emotional. He didn't like me at the beginning, I knew that he expected Cleo to be his son-in-law" Sherina replied with a faint smile.
"Thank you for your understanding. But ... Still my mother was wrong, my mother's words were too sharp. If you feel hurt by his words, I apologize for representing him .." said Vicky in a humble tone. She was really embarrassed by her mother's attitude. Though Sherina is a good person, she wonders why her mother behaves so to people as good as Sherina.
Sherina chuckled, she did not expect that someone like Vicky could show this kind of lowliness. "Haha, my God, Vicky. Just like that won't hurt me. Forgetit. By the way ... I'm curious about Velix's problem. Are you really going to replace your mother?"
"Yes, and this isn't the first time. Previously I was also the one who came to school to fulfill the call of guardians. The problem is also the same, Velix gets into trouble with his classmates. And this time, I don't know which other friend he's fighting with."
"Ohh .. So, yes. If you go to school tomorrow, can I come with you?" pinta Sherina's.
"Hm? Why would you come?" ask Vicky wonderingly.
"It's nothing, I just wanted to say hello to Velix. I want to know what she is like, you see .. Compared to you, there seems to be a lot of difference between you," Sherina replied with an awkward smile.
"Pfftt. All right, come with me if you want. But, you don't regret it later, yeah!"
"Repent? Sorry why?"
"Haha, you'll know for yourself!" Vicky gave a small smile, then looked away from Sherina and looked back at the focus of the document.
***
The next day Vicky and Sherina come together to the school where Velix is located. Lilac Intercultural Academy, that's the name of this international school. This school is a very luxurious educational institution with everything, starting from preschool to high school.
Although Lilac Intercultural Academy is an international school, over 40 percent of its students are domestic. Because of the very expensive tuition fees, there are rarely students who go out or move. This school is familiarly referred to as the 'School of Nobles', where the children of rich people are schooled.
Therefore, all students who attend school here have a background that cannot be underestimated. Whether it is the child of businessmen or officials, all have their own privileges.
And now, in a private room a teacher at Lilac Intercultural Academy. Vicky and Sherina are in there, both of them taking on the role of student trustees of Velix. While the boy who was involved in the problem with Velix, he was named Mario. Mario is also currently with his father, who is an influential parliamentary council official.
After a long conversation with the homeroom teacher as an intermediary, Mario's father said, "Yes, let's get this over with! Even if my son is beaten until his teeth are broken, I will not demand any further. I'd consider this an ordinary little boy's fight, but on one condition. Velix has to apologize to my son! I want to do this because I'm looking at Mr. Vicky's face!"
"Velix, let's apologize. Let's get this over with!" pinta Vicky on her little sister. However, Velix just melengos.
"Hey, your brother told you to apologize to me!" chirp Mario with a haughty tone. He was still not covered or afraid, even though he had bruises on his cheek.
"No want! I'm not wrong! I'm not apologizing!" yelled Velix as loud as possible. Even without any warning, he suddenly ran out of the homeroom teacher's room.
"The velix!!! Back!!!" yelled Vicky and the homeroom together. The two of them were both getting dizzy, it seemed like this guardian disciple meeting did not go smoothly.
