The String of Destiny
Father's Job

Mr. Dirman asked the students to work on the questions in the Student Training book. In the book, there is a question about the intrinsic elements and PUEBI. The atmosphere immediately became quiet, the students in the class began to focus on working on problems.

Secretly, Alexander peeked at the matter that Tiara was working on. He was amazed, seeing the writing of Tiara which almost matched the writing of a computer. Tiara felt noticed, she glanced at Alex then shifted her book.

"Please, look. All of this is very easy" said Tiara.

"No, I don't want to see your answer. I just saw your writing. Your writing is very good, almost close to computer writing," praised Alexander.

"You're overreacting, honey. My writing isn't that good, we'd better get back to doing these things through to the end."

They both went back to work on each other. Finished working on the problem, the student exercise book was collected and then Mr. Dirman checked the answers of the students.

"As long as I check your answers, please write a story about your father's activities and work. After I check your answers, one by one you call to stand up and tell your dad about your classmate."

Mr. Dirman, start checking his students' answers one by one. The students in the class, began to write about the activities and work of their respective fathers on a notebook.

Alexander began writing about daily activities at home. Sometimes, he remembered the loneliness and unfair treatment by his own mother. After examining his students' answers, Mr. Dirman took a class hiatus on his desk.

"Now, I call you one by one. For those who are not finished, please tell a story. Alexander stand! Tell me about your father's work and activities."

Alexander stood up, his heart pounding so fast. Both of his hands were holding his books on the table. His hands were trembling, he was nervous as everyone focused on paying attention to him.

"My father is a gardener. Every day, my dad goes to the airport at four in the morning. At eight o'clock my father went to the garden. At one o'clock my father went to the office and at three o'clock in the afternoon my father played golf. Normally, my dad comes home once every two weeks."

"Huh?! How-how?! Your father was a gardener, went to the airport, went to the office and played golf?! What garden does your father have?"

"Saw Palm Plant."

The entire class was shocked, hearing that his father was the Boss of the owner of the Palm Oil Garden. As we know, that every one acre in one harvest yields a profit of tens of millions. While Erwin, Alex's father has twenty-five hectares of oil palm on the islands of Kalimantan and Sumatra.

In addition, his father Alexander owned a tea garden and owned a company in the field of food and beverages. Food and beverage companies are Wijaya Alam Sentosa Company. Hearing that, Wulan shifted her seat towards Tamrin.

"Now you know, the reason I called Alex the Boss" Wulan replied.

"Yes, Wulan. Now, everything sounds reasonable" Tamrin replied.

Meanwhile, Mr. Dirman was silent with a flat face. He shook his head and felt played.

"Oh, apparently Palm Boss. Next one...."

One by one, the students began to tell their parents' work. But still, Alexander was still a hot topic. Now, it's Dandi's turn to tell her about her father's work and activities.

"My father was a photographer. After breakfast, my father would draw pictures. At nine in the morning my father went to the office."

"Your father was a draftsman and went to the office. What is your father drawing?"

"Image of the building."

"Your Father's Architect! Next one..."

One by one, the students began to tell about his father's work and activities. Not felt, now Tamrin's turn to tell a story.

"Tamrin, now tell me about your father's work and activities."

"Good, Sir. My father was a great leader. He diligently led his men to build the country."

"Your father's acting?" asked Mr. Dirman and Tamrin replied, "Mandor Building."

"Hmm.not wrong. Next Tiara, please tell me about your father's work and activities."

Tiara stood up from her seat, she smiled making herself the center of attention. They are curious, what kind of work parents become class prima donna.

"My father worked as an office clerk. Every eight o'clock my dad goes to the office. Before leaving, my father gave me some pocket money and took care of his pets. Sometimes, my dad has to go out of town for work."

Wulan and Alexander fell silent knowing that Tiara was open to humans but an angel. That lie at least made Tiara look normal.

Then, the students who got their turn told their father's work and activities. Lastly, it was Wulan's turn to tell the story.

"My father's Headmaster, my father leaves every day at 9 am. Normally, my dad comes home at two. When I got home, my dad always took a nap. Sometimes my dad would sit in the living room watching television shows and having coffee. In meetings, my dad usually comes home at five."

"Gue can't believe it, Chief Palm Boss' son!" praise Tamrin.

"Ah, don't overdo it. My father's not that great" Alex replies to Tamrin.

"Plan, where are we going today?" ask Wulan.

"Well, since there's a match against the 10th class IPA A I feel like I want to go straight home."

"Don't do it, Boss. At least the boss should have some preparation. If you want, after school we practice," said Tamrin.

"Honey, I'm going to meet Inspiration on the Football field. He said he wanted to teach me football" Tiara whispered asking Alex for permission.

"Maybe" he answered and smiled.

The bell rang, all the students left the class and started their own activities. Tiara walked through the corridor alone. A few students who were hanging out, greeted him then Tiara kindly greeted back.

Someone pulled his ear, he turned around but there was no one. Once again someone touched his ear but there was no one. He turned around and was surprised to see Ilham standing before him.

"Jeez, make me surprised!"

"Huh.ha.ha! Sorry-sorry, let's go to the field."

The two of them, walking together towards the Football field. Unbeknownst to the two of them, Alexander, Wulan and Tamrin stalk them from behind. Alexander did allow it, but his little heart said no.

Therefore, Alexander intends to follow his lover secretly even though it involves two friends. Arriving on the Football field, Tiara became the center of attention of the members of the exkul. Bobi who is also a member of the exkul come to them both.

"Hello, Captain Ilham. Whoa! Didn't think there was a Tiara here" Bobi said to the two of them.

"I'm sorry, Ilham brought me here. I happen to want to know how to play and practice football" Tiara replied.

Sunlight pierced the skin, the entire members of the Football Exchulse began to warm up. Tiara, sitting on the bench accompanied by a 25-year-old young coach.

"Hey, introductions. My name is Heri, the coach at this Ekskul," he stuck out his hand.

"Tiara," he replied and shook hands.

"What are you doing here? See your girlfriend practicing?" heri asked and Tiara replied, "No, Brother. Tiara just wanted to know how to play and how to practice Soccer."

"You like Football?" heri asked once more and Tiara replied, "No, sir."

"Hmm.., I don't know what your real purpose is. Go ahead and enjoy it to the fullest, if there's anything you want to know just say."

"Good, Sir. Uh, good brother!"

"Sir Heri is enough."

Inspiration saw Tiara talking to her coach. The flames of jealousy had burned his heart, he looked at his coach with an annoyed look. Finishing the warm-up, he walked up to her and then he pulled her hand.

"Hey! Why you?!" tiara asked and Ilham replied, "That's a bench for the reserves. You can't sit there."

Tiara fell silent and followed where Ilham had taken her. The two of them, sitting on a bench quite far from their previous seat. He saw, the body of Inspiration was full of sweat. Then he took a handkerchief in his bag.

"You have so much memory" Tiara said, wiping off the sweat on Ilham's face and neck.

"Yes, his name is also a footballer. Moreover, the weather was very hot."

Getting a little attention from the Tiara, made Ilham even more captivated. At that moment, he felt like he was the luckiest man.

"Strong, but don't force yourself. If there's time, take time to rest."

"Yes, Tiara. Thanks," he replied and smiled."

In a place unknown to Tiara from a distance, Alexander saw it. His heart felt like it had been pierced by a hot needle. His soul felt hollow, let alone seeing Tiara wiping the sweat of Illam with her handkerchief. At the same time, Tiara held her own chest.

He did not know why his chest felt pain. Pain, heat and emptiness mixed into one. Tiara glanced to and fro while holding her aching chest. He did not see anything suspicious.
