The Unusual Highschool Days
The Queen, Standing

Eric arrived in front of the school at exactly eight in twenty minutes. Ten minutes earlier than promised. The black car that drove her from home was gone, Eric promised to contact her driver again if his business was done later.

About Permission, as long as Eric has completed all modules from the daily tutor who watches over him, the mother will not protest much.There is only one rule that must be obeyed, ‘do not get into trouble. If you are involved in the problem, solve with full responsibility’ at least, that's Alexander Gildereich's message to his only son.

A man in a pastel blue hoodie with knee-length shorts and sneakers approached him. His eyes blinked from sleepiness, and he instantly yawned as soon as he stopped his steps in front of Eric.

“hai, have you been waiting?” alfian.

Seeing the appearance of Alfian who looked in contrast to the jeans he was wearing made Eric began to suspect the place he was about to go. Was Alfian not in the wrong costume? Isn't El Diablo's base where they're going to be gangsters from all over Bellkarta gather? Where did all the scary impressions Alfian had told Eric this afternoon?

“kak Alfian no longer skidding right?” Eric asked, trying to make sure.

“Emang why? I used to come there wearing gini clothes. Precisely so that it looks contrast” said full of confidence. Alfian handed him a black mask whose size was enough to cover half of Eric's face.

“just in case, you don't want to be the talk material in the mading again. later there must be representatives from the club

Journalism loh. Mending you cover part of your face pack this”

“kak Alfian do not use?” Eric immediately accepts Alfian's gift and wears it.

“gue do not need to close my activities from whom kok” said his relaxed. “ayo depart, before his place full”

            The place Eric and Alfian were going to was an unused sports arena about a kilo meter from the school.

“when the early days of the construction of Santana Senior High School, this arena was once the main arena where there were many matches of school matches. Now, because the construction of school facilities is almost one hundred percent complete, this arena is not used because the distance is too far from the main building.” Alfian explained as he walked.

“twice a week, will be held a fight, whether it is between schools or between children with problems. The goal is, so that the raw event can be coordinated where regulations and others will be adjusted based on mutual agreement. If you fight girls with someone, you can also register for a fight here. If you have a grudge against someone too, you can register for a fight here. If you have a problem that can only be interrupted with violence but you do not have the skill to fight, El Diablo can also be willing to fight through certain protocols. In essence, this is the right place to hit punch.”

“besides the battle arena, this place is also often used for transactions. Whether it is in the form of information, money, or illegal goods and others. So to minimize the unwanted things, The hive child from the school security board is also sent to this place as a supervisor. The ones sent here are usually just men. Almost no girls in this place”

            Eric and Alfian arrive at the venue. Guarding at the door was a man in a white suit who was the hallmark of the members of The Hive. Gio, the young man looked rather surprised when he saw Eric coming with Alfian.

“why?, I'm not late right?” alfian said as Gio blocked his entrance.

“just a minute, who are you taking this? He's not his kid who has school?” Gio asked as he pointed at Eric's face which was covered in a black mask.

“yup, lo right”

“lo why bring this kid here? if what's wrong?” gio Protest.

“kok his guests in hold? It's Alfian right?” there was the sound of a girl approaching the entrance guarded by Gio. “The way is to start loh”

“see the Alfian take who to the rich place gini”

            Both Eric and the girl were similarly shocked once her second eyes met.

“Eric?”

“kak Ivana?” said Eric hardly believe what he saw. “kak Alfian, you say there are no girls in rich places gini?” Eric asked Alfian.

“children who have a school why in a rich place gini? Not looking for mama lo?” Ask Ivana provocatively. It offended Eric a little. What in Ivana's eyes, does she look like a mother's son who always follows her mama? Spoiled child

what kind of things are sent to a foreign land and adapt alone at a very young age?

“kak Ivana herself why in a rich gini? Is he not afraid of what? Nemenin girlfriend or what?” Eric insinuated. However, Ivana seemed unperturbed by the insinuations.

“Gio, you continue to check on other guests. Let me talk to them both” Ivana said as she led Eric and Alfian to another quieter place. While Gio, continued his task of checking out the guest who passed the main door.

“oke, clear up so I can understand. Why'd you take this kid to El diablo's base?” ivana said to Alfian as soon as the third arrived at the other side of the ring, a place rarely visited by people.

“the answer is long, about experience.. relate to people with problems...asset...mm, what else is it?” Alfian tried to remember his conversation with Eric last afternoon.

“let me just clear in.” Cut Eric off because of his looks, Alfian's recall ability is equivalent to koi fish's. Gravely.

“gini brother, I came here because I want to know about El diablo. This school and *****bizarre its problems will one day be inherited to me. So, I feel if I have the right to know everything about what will someday be part of my responsibility Eric explained.

“nah, that's what I meant earlier”Alfian nodded his head, asserting Eric's words.

            Ivana thought for a moment. Eric's reasoning is acceptable, but it doesn't close the fact that the place

this is too dangerous for Eric's important people. Eric was an only child, if anything unexpected happened.The Gildereich family would obviously lose one successor.

“lo didn't understand the situation. This place is too dangerous for rich people lo.. if something happens to the same lo, I also get the impact of his” said Ivana.

            Hearing Ivana's answer, Eric was astonished. If something happened to her, why did Ivana get affected? Who is Ivana, Eric?

“oh gosh... If you talk about danger, is not her sister Ivana more vulnerable? If Ivana can get in, why can't I? The one who has to go home is Ivana's sister. Danger of girls running around this clock. Especially at gangster headquarters?” Eric shook his head.

“Eric, you failed to understand deh” said Alfian while patting Eric on the shoulder. “l already horrified about Prince right? What did I tell you about this afternoon?”

Eric nodded his head.

“one who defeated all the old members of El diablo and is now chairman?”

“yup. What do you think, Prince? Strong? Serem?”

“kalo based on your story anyway.. clearly he is not a random person.” Eric argued.

“nah the story is not finished. one year ago. El diablo sepet problem with someone. and that person abstains from chairman El diablo directly. Two prince ribs were broken, there was a crack in his tibia bone as well. For the first time, El Diablo's position was threatened. Do you know, who's the crazy guy who beat the big guy prince?”

Eric shook his head.

“lo will not believe if the person is the girl in front of lo”
