"St... Shut up" whispered the man who smothered Arnold.


Arnold just nodded his head in understanding even though he himself did not know who was smothering him now. He only wished in his heart that this one who had caught him was a good man. Arnold just complied while continuing to look forward without daring to look back.


But he believes that the person who arrested him is a student as well. Maybe his level brother because of his larger hands and the shoes used are also different sizes. Even so, Arnold will thank you if this man manages to save himself.


"There's no room for people to hide. Looks like he's escaped," exclaimed one of the men who was looking for Arnold's whereabouts.


"Yes, ah you guys are melting anyway. Should have been able to immediately think that it was not the sound of a cat," upset his other colleagues even blame each other.


There was no more conversation between those people even there was just the sound of footsteps slowly moving away. Arnold quietly sighed in relief because he felt that the people who were after him had left. Even a man who smothered his mouth was also immediately releasing his provisions.


"Don't be careless to face such cunning people. Those individuals want to dethrone the ranks of school administrators by making some cases as it is currently happening. Especially those who were invited to cooperate were students who thirst for praise," said a male student who was in front of Arnold.


Arnold was now staring at a boy who seemed to be his level brother who had now stepped on the 6th grade. This can be seen from the mark on the pocket of the uniform is blue. This indicates that he is a 6th grade student who may know his two brothers.


"Thank you for helping me, brother" said Arnold, slightly lowering his head.


"Abel is my best friend, so I also have to uncover who is the real mastermind of this incident. Now, follow me!" he said firmly.


Although Arnold has not known or know more closely, but in his heart he was so sure that the person who claimed to be his brother's best friend was a good child. Arnold nodded his head then walked slowly following the directions of this elder brother of his.


All this time he had never gone down this road. Even the road is not flat, still the rocks that make it must be careful. Moreover, now they pass through a banana garden that a lot of garbage makes Arnold immediately close his nose. It seemed Arnold was a little regretful following the directions from this elder brother of his level.


"Why is this way?" arnold asked confusedly.


"Do you want those people arrested? If you want to survive, you better shut up!" he said with his tone.


Finally Arnold prefers to be quiet so that the person in front of him is not getting upset. Moreover, he had been saved by him making him also hesitant if he suddenly wanted to run away. Not long after walking, they approached a hut house with bamboo woven walls.


"We can't go back to class now. They may suspect that the one who lied to her was you. Let's just rest here until the bell comes home. Take it easy, this is my home. No one will scold him if we're here" said the male student.


It seems like the male student named Gema Aldio or commonly called Gema knows the doubts seen in Arnold's death. So he took the initiative to explain it even though Arnold did not ask for it. Besides, the house might not be as good as the buildings here so rich people like Arnold would not want to take shelter here.


Gleck... Gleck... Gleck...


"Slow down, there's plenty of water. Just cook if it runs out," said Gema while chuckling softly.


Arnold only smiled shyly at the manner in which the Echoes caught her. After finishing the drinking water, the room was struck by silence. Both of them did not open their voices at all because they were confused about what to discuss. Moreover, the puzzle about the cause of the Abel bully incident has been answered from the explanation of the Echoes.

Alan is now sitting in front of his class waiting for the driver to pick him up. The bell home from school had indeed sounded 10 minutes ago, even Cia who incidentally his best friend had been picked up. Cia's driver and her grandfather's brother offered her to go home together but she refused.


"I'm not upset, akek. Agi bula cebental again copi uga atan cegela atang kok. Anti even dikila Alan angi talo repeated feathers," said Alan gave an excuse while chuckling softly.


He does not know where the driver is now. After all, he is also lazy to go home because it will definitely be lonely. Both of his siblings are still in school because they are not going to the hospital today. Alan played both of his legs out of boredom, no one asked him to speak.


There were only a few teachers who were watching the students who had not been picked up. Alan who was not too familiar with other students also preferred to be alone under the tree. While the teachers feel awkward with Alan who is very difficult to approach.


"Mamat cih. Alan tan tapek unggu anpa this superficial death," upset when he saw his family driver running closer to him.


"Sorry little master, there was an unavoidable call of nature" the family driver replied with a laugh.


Alan stood up and left his family driver still laughing. While the driver immediately hastily stopped his laughter and then ran after his employer. Even now Alan is sitting sweetly at the wheel.


"Are we going straight home or waiting at Arnold and Anara's school?" ask the driver while driving the car.


"To school brother and sister only. There must be an interesting adventure" said Alan with a mysterious smile.


This day he was not so in the mood to live his day. But he felt that at school his two brothers later there will be exciting adventures that he can do. Of course this can restore his spirit and mood that has been shattered.


While the driver who saw it can only see with a strange look. The smile is full of mystery and riddles. It seems that when he gets there later, his task will increase by watching the movements of the children of his master. He felt that there would be something that made him stroke the chest later.


"Abang, brother... We're gonna solve all these problems together. We can do it!" he murmured slowly while staring at the bustling city streets.
