The String of Destiny
Love Letters and Brochures


The bells that signal the end of teaching and learning activities have sounded. The whole school is over.


For those who get a picket schedule, they have to clean the class. While not part of the schedule, they immediately go home and run their respective routines.


Alexander, along with the three members of the triumvirate, walked out of the classroom. Today they went to the Music Room to participate in the Escul Band activities. They walked down the hallway, passed the classroom and the street had views of grass and flowers.


Wulan walked over he said, "Boss, I saw your match. Boss says can't play ball. Don't-don't, this whole time the boss lied. Is this what's called a dip to skyrocket?"


Alex said, "Seriously, I'm not lying. In elementary school, I used to play ball. But since Junior High I've never played ball at all."


"But there's no way the boss can do it in that moment" Tamrin said.


Tiara patted her own chest and she said, "Who used to teach you dong!" he said with a proud tone.


Tamrin laughed, "Any girl knows what the ball is?"


"Nantang nih, the story?"


"If there's a ball, we're gassed here" Tamrin replied.


"Quiet the kids, tomorrow's a sports lesson. You can compete as much as tomorrow," said Wulan cut off the conversation.


For so long they walked, they finally reached the hallway to the music room. Up ahead, they saw Bang Tigor wearing an OSIS alma mater opening a padlock.


Bang Tigor turned towards them, "Hello guys, "greet Bang Tigor while giving the tos one by one.


"Hello, Bang Tigor," the four of them replied while doing tos one by one.


The door lock had opened, they all walked into the music room. Bang Tigor, asked them to clean the room with a broom and a pot that was already available.


Alexander and the three members of the triumvirate, started cleaning the room while Bang Tigor went outside to pick up a cardboard filled bottle of mineral water. Ten minutes long, Alexander and the others cleared the room.


After they finished cleaning the room, they sat on the floor. Not long after, Bang Tigor came carrying cardboard in both hands. On top of the cardboard, there are cakes and other snacks.


Bang Tigor handed out bottles of drinks and snacks to all of them, "Please drink first."


They all drank bottles of Bang Tigor's mineral water. Then, they sat in a small circle.


Bang Tigor, drinking mineral water in a bottle and then putting his bottle on the floor. He smiled and said, "Alex, during the break I saw your game on the basketball court. Oh. cieee..! How does it feel to be hugged in the middle of a basketball court?" she said with a seductive tone.


Wulan and Tamrin cheered Alexander and Tiara until their faces were red with shame.


"The rumors of you two spread all the way to my class. Tiara, I as a sister just tell you that my friends like you a lot. I heard someone give me a love letter. Have you ever had a love letter before?"


Tiara fell silent, both of her fingers stuck under her chin, "If it's not wrong, three times a week there must be a letter in the bag. Now, there are two letters in the bag."


Tiara made her backpack, she took out two letters inside the bag. The girl fell silent as she placed the letter on the floor. Bang Tigor felt no stranger to the letter.


Tigor took it, "Can I see?" ask Tigor to Tiara.


Tiara allowed it. Tigor slowly opened the envelope and read the letter. Tigor laughed out loud, knowing that the sender of the letter was his classmate.


Irregular writing, inappropriate punctuation and full content poetic like ancient script writing makes Tigor not stop laughing.


"Your beautiful hair is like gold floating at times. Your smooth skin is like a sky Toll and white is like formalin!" he read his friend's letter.


Alexander and the others laughed. For the first time, there are men who write love letters with very funny contents.


Tiara laughed and said, "My skin is likened to formalin."


"Sorry Tiara, my friend's class is funny. At least he dared to reveal his heart, I respect. Tiara have any plans to retaliate?"


"Why?" ask Bang Tigor.


Tiara exhaled, her countenance looking very worried, "If Tiara is honest, Tiara is afraid of hurting them."


Tigor smiled and said, "It turns out that the legs are not just pretty, I admit. But Tiara, hanging the answer is also wrong especially the men. Even though men look strong, but their hearts are very fragile. Now I'm asking, do you have a boyfriend?"


Tiara fell silent, she glanced at Alex. From the look on his face Alexander knew that Tiara was asking whether to answer him or not.


"Already" replied Tiara.


Bang Tigor saw Tiara looking at Alex. He wondered and asked, "Tiara, are you dating Alex?"


"Yes, we're dating" Alex replied before Tiara answered.


"Cieee..! Tiara ran to the middle of the basketball court at that time. Now that sounds reasonable. Does everyone know about your relationship?"


Alexander tells him that no one knows anything about his relationship with Tiara other than Wulan and Tamrin. Then he asked Bang Tigor to keep it a secret, because of something that could not be told.


"I don't know Alex, the reason why you're hiding your relationship with Tiara. At least, I should inform my friend of Tiara's status. But relax, your name I didn't mention. That way, I can shut down some of the expectations of the men out there. "


Alexander, thanking Bang Tigor followed by Tiara Wulan and Tamrin. The conversation had ended, it was time for them to start extracurricular activities.


Bang Tigor stood up he walked over and quietly faced them all. Then he patted his hands and said, "Ok, it's time we started our activities. To begin the activity, please Alexander forward to start his performance."


Alexander was surprised as he pointed to his own face, "I?!"


"Yes, you're Alex. It's just the voice of you and Tamrin who haven't performed yet. Fast forward, time lost to girls?"


Alexander was speechless, he started to feel nervous for the front. Then he pointed at Tamrin while saying, "At least Tamrin is also on the show."


"What?!" tamrin was so surprised.


Alexander continued to seduce and forced Tamrin to come forward. Inevitably, Tamrin was forced to perform with Alex. In front, Alexander held a brown Acoustic Guitar while Tamrin sat on a bench beside him.


Bang Tigor, Wulan and Tiara took out their phones and prepared to record. Meanwhile, Alexander and Tamrin were discussing the song they were going to sing. After deliberating for a long time, they will finally sing a song performed by Band Jamrud entitled, "Rainbow In Your Eyes."


Alexander started strumming guitars, the atmosphere of the room instantly became silent. Three spectators began recording.


Alexander began to open his mouth and began to sing, "Thirty minutes we're here.Without a sound. And I'm afraid I'll have to wait a long time


Says from you," he sings while playing the guitar.


Tamrin opened her mouth and began singing, "Maybe need a word-stringing course. To talk... And I hate to be honest with you about all this."


Their melodious voice, made the three spectators enjoy the performance of the two of them. Despite the duel, they both have their own distinctive voices. First Alex, has a medium-pitched melodious voice downwards.


Both Tamrin, the owner of a low to high pitched rocker sound. If the two voices collaborate, then create a melodious rhythm and cover each other up.


After singing, the audience gave a big round of applause.


Bang Tigor stopped applauding, saying, "I can't believe I've recruited a vocalist on this Exkul" he praised them all.


"Bang Tigor's overreacting," Alex replies.


"Seriously, I'm talking to you guys as is. By the way, there's something I want to show you all," he said and fiddled with his cell phone.


Bang Tigor, showing a poster of the race to all of them, "On April 30th, there is a Band Performance in Bungaran District. If you're interested in saying me, I'll register. Your job is to name the band and make your own song. A hundred million plus free footage prize!"


Alexander and Tamrin returned to their original seats. The four of them negotiated, but they were still worried. Finally, they told Tigor that they would make a decision next month.
