The String of Destiny
Housework

The next day, at school during the break Alexander fell asleep on the table. His face was fixed on the table in both of his hands. Outside of Tiara's class, Wulan and Tamrin sat in front of the class. They saw Alexander from a distance still asleep.

Tamrin sat glancing into the classroom and asked, "Tiara, what's wrong with the boss? Why does the beginning of the lesson until the break look sleepy?"

"Overnight, Alexander was busy working on the script of his novel. I told him to sleep. The boy, keep writing.

Tamrin turned to Tiara and said, "Pantesan! Oh, yes Tiara. I have something to ask."

"What about?"

"You and Alex live together, how do you do your laundry? By yourself?" tamrin asked whispered to Tiara timidly.

Tiara shook her head and replied, "All I wash."

Wulan and Tamrin were surprised, so surprised Wulan who had been focused on staring at the screen of her cellphone immediately turned to Tiara. The girl put her cell phone in the pocket of the school skirt.

"Electronic too?" ask Wulan

Tiara smiled as she nodded her head. Tamrin's face was red, as she imagined Tiara every day looking at men's underwear.

Tamrin with a reddened look asked, "You're not shy, ironing Alex's interior every day?" she's shy.

Tiara laughed then said, "As for the inner husband himself, why should I be ashamed." replied Tiara.

"Bos don't ask to wash yourself? Or were you told?" ask Wulan.

"Alex asked me not to wash his clothes. But I refused, because washing one of my obligations and I liked it as well as thanks for allowing me to stay," Tiara replied so innocently.

Tiara told them that washing and ironing herself did. Wulan and Tamrin, speechless gawking with flushed faces.

Tamrin laughed and said, "That's normal, my mother also did the laundry and the clothes in her male family. At least, you guys aren't roommates so privacy is still safe."

Wulan who knew, that Tiara roomed with Alex could only make her wheeze made Tiara look away in embarrassment. Not long after, Ilham also came immediately the look of Wulan and Tamrin's face into a wall. Wulan returned to play her phone while Tamrin stared intently at Ilham with intimidation.

Ilham smiled and said, "Hi Tiara," said Ilham.

"Hi too," Tiara replied kindly.

"So to a Japanese Restaurant?" ask Ilham.

"So, I've got permission from my Papah."

Ilham smiled, he was very happy to get the chance to go with Tiara. Then he said to Tiara, that after school he would wait in front of the class. After that, Ilham left the three of them.

Tamrin glanced at Tiara then asked, "Your father? You mean Alex?"

"Yes. Actually I don't want to, because I'm still worried about Alex. Yesterday, after school he was beaten by criminals. At least, if I ever meet that criminal again, I want to beat him up to go to the hospital. However, Alexander instead told me to accept his invitation."

Wulan while playing her phone said, "Boss, really nice guy. You should never let her down" Wulan said.

"Sure!"

Tiara stood up from her seat, she told the two of them to go to the cafeteria. Now, there was only Wulan and Tamrin sitting in front of the class. Tamrin still remembered, the bullying experienced by Alex.

Tamrin folded her hands together and asked, "Why, did the Boss allow Tiara to leave with Inspiration? Was yesterday not enough?" he said with annoyance.

"Then yesterday, you mean the boss's bullying by Inspiration and friends?"

Tamrin glanced at Wulan then asked back, "Where do you know?"

Wulan patted the right temple while saying, "Past vision, I only found out this morning."

"Wulan, you're so cool! How do you do it?" ask Tamrin.

"Easy, I just touched the person I wanted to foresee," replied Wulan.

"So, every time you touch someone you can see their future?" tamrin asked again.

Wulan glanced at Tamrin, she smiled as she shook her head. He replied, "I can see if I want to. About our Boss' bullying, just so you know that two days ago Tiara was bullied too."

Tamrin was surprised he turned to Wulan and looked at her seriously. Then he asked, "Who's the same?!"

"Winda, Kartika and Tantri. They are one class with Inspiration" replied Wulan.

"Actually I want to, but Tiara forbids me. He said he didn't want to traumatize Alexander again."

Tamrin grew increasingly upset and said, "If the boss knew, how would he react?"

"The three of them are already too much. But Winda, as his brain did that out of a misunderstanding."

"Misunderstanding? What's that supposed?" tamrin asked so curiously.

Wulan smiled and said, "You will know. It's not funny if I tell you now. To be sure, once my problems are over the three of them will be our allies."

Tamrin grew curious, he took a deep breath and said, "Gue don't know, what kind of problem you're facing. But, I doain hope it's over soon."

"Thanks," replied Wulan.

After school, Ilham sat in front of class 10 IPS F alone. He turned his head as the classroom door opened and Tiara walked up to him waving her hand. Her sweet smile made Ilham smile.

Alexander was seen walking across, they looked at each other. He saw the look in Alex's eyes so cold, but Ilham replied with a triumphant smile.

"Come," take Ilham.

"Yeah!" reply Tiara.

They both cross the road to the parking lot and ride Ilham's black ninja motorcycle. The ninja's motor began to accelerate on the asphalt. Sunlight penetrated the skin, luckily the traffic atmosphere was smooth so they both still felt a gust of wind.

Tiara turned to and fro, looking at skyscrapers and other interesting buildings. Some students were seen riding on a motorcycle.

On the road, the two finally arrived at the restaurant. They both walked into the restaurant. When they entered the restaurant, they were amazed to see bamboo decorations, paintings and Japanese dolls.

It feels like they are entering a Japanese luxury restaurant of the Pastime. The two of them, sitting at the customer's desk, had a red chair.

A waiter wearing a kimono approached them. Inspiration to order, some food and drinks are on the menu. After ordering, the waiter went to prepare the order.

"Thanks Tiara, already wanted to accompany me to come to this restaurant. Sorry, if I have a little problem, this is an important moment" Ilham said.

"No problem, I also want to know what food is in this restaurant. What is an important moment?" tiara asked curiously.

Ilham smiled then said, "Actually, today is my birthday."

"Well! Happy Birthday, may be given health and carried out all affairs," he said then raised both hands when praying for it.

"Amen!" reply Inspiration while rubbing his face.

"Your birthday why don't you take Martin, Bobi and the others with you?" ask Tiara.

Ilham laughed then said, "You know the birthday culture in this country right?"

Tiara smiled as she shook her head then said, "Birthday culture? I don't know. When I was a kid, I never celebrated my birthday. Celebrating a friend's birthday never."

Hearing this, Ilham looked at Tiara with sympathy. Then he said, "I'm sorry I didn't mean to..."

"It's easy to relax, I'm not offended. What is the birthday culture in this country like?"

The bright-looking inspiration, the look on his face instantly became gloomy. "A birthday person, usually they are tied to a pole. His friends will throw eggs, there is also water comberan until his body is dirty. After that, they unhesitatingly asked for taxes or treaties as a birthday celebration. But not everything is like that there's also celebrating normally."

"Evil! Supposedly, the birthday person gets happiness not misery! They don't think the feelings of a birthday person?!" he said so grimly.

"It is common for the Land of a Thousand Fables. Hence, I deliberately did not tell friends other than people close to me. Actually, I invited one more person."

"Who?" ask Tiara.

Not yet able to answer, a girl with long black hair and beautiful stripes came to them both.

"Happy birthday to Inspiration! Treat here often!" said the girl.

Ilham laughed then said, "Don't every day also Winda, I'll kick it!"

The joy of Winda instantly disappeared, when he saw the existence of Tiara. He looked at Tiara with a cold face.

Tiara kept smiling then waved her hand as she said, "Hello!" greet Tiara.
