True Colors
Not me

The school gate is open. It's time for the students of Lydenn Academy to start missing and get into their respective classes. Automatic absences have begun to crowded, the lobby has begun to sound frenzied life.

The stairs to the next floor were always filled with students. This morning was really quite a busy morning at the Lydenn Academy. Mr. Sandro will conduct an orderly inspection. Many students were panicking. The one who was busy getting his uniform.

Mr. Sandro is a teacher at Lydenn Academy. He is the oldest teacher in the Academy. He has a fit appearance despite being 67 years old. Mr. Sandro is a former military officer, so it's no wonder why he's trusted as a disciplinary enforcer at Lydenn Academy. And he is famous as a teacher who often conduct impromptu raids.

Adreano and Joseph moved towards the electronic door and took out their student pass. Then enter the Lobby and walk towards the main building. Adreano carried a black backpack on his left shoulder.

Meanwhile, Joseph starts a conversation with Adreano as the two climb a crowded staircase.

"Bro! Mr.Sandro wants to have a raid. It's busy hahaha... Good thing I am an exemplary student!" Exclaimed Joseph while grabbing the queue up the stairs one by one.

Adreano just scrunched his forehead and walked in Joseph's footsteps.

"Just started the New Semester, right? is there a razia?" Adreano asked Joseph.

"Yeah, that's it. You know for yourself what Lydenn Academy is not" Joseph replied, shaking his head.

The two climbed the stairs until they were finally on the 2nd floor. There are many students outside the class. They chatted and were busy talking about raids. From the many conversations heard along the way to class 2-2, it is known that there are students who are found carrying several grams of narcotics.

Adreano who heard it felt a little surprised because the illegal goods were actually consumed in a school. Joseph seems to have known the intent of the impromptu raid. He only smiled a little each time he heard the words spoken by some of the disciples in the corridor.

Not far from class 2-2, Class 2-1 is crowded. It turned out that after looking around, two disciples were fighting. Classes 2-1 were crowded with many students who were curious to see the incident. They even fought each other. After finding out the cause of the crowd Adreano immediately left the crowd, so did Joseph.

From the opposite direction, a half-running boy crashed into Adreano who was about to try to get out of the crowd. Adreano's backpack fell off his shoulder and his body collapsed.

"I'm sorry, I'm sorry. I'm in a hurry" said the boy who hit Adreano

"Yes, I already know" Reply Adreano while standing back up.

The boy picked up Adreano's backpack that fell on the floor. He gave the bag back to its owner. Meanwhile Joseph had only managed to get out of the crowd. He immediately asked Adreano.

"Where? Bro? it's okay, right?" joseph patted Adreano on the back.

"What's wrong, just walk to the hunting class " Reply Adreano who carries his backpack again.

They soon entered class 2-2. The atmosphere of the class was the same as the first day Adreano entered. Seemed Hyerim cheerfully greeting the two. While Youngjoo only raises his hand a greeting sign. His face was covered with a book on it. He sat in his chair and looked tired. Hyemi sat on Youngjoo's desk.

"Yoo, Mr. Cardia and Mr. Heinze! Good Morning" Sapa Hyerim.

"Miss Keret's Eve" Joseph greeted Hyerim back. Adreano just nodded.

"What?! you said I was what?!" Hyerim asked in an annoyed tone.

"Yes, you're chatty" Joseph replied again in a mocking tone.

Hyerim then approached Joseph and beat him up. Adreano only looked at the behavior of the two while shaking his head. Youngjoo who was aware of Adreano's presence immediately picked up the book that covered his face and stared at Adreano.

"Yoshh, starting today I moved to sit here" said Youngjoo.

"Since when have you been able to move around like this?" ask Adreano wonder.

"Privilege the class leader may be" Youngjoo replied with a laugh.

Adreano then installed his flat look. He could not believe that Youngjoo would answer him like that.

"Oh yes, there will be a raid. Get ready, but you're a new kid so there's no problem. It should be" Youngjoo said again.

"Yes, from the information you gave me last night. Shouldn't the school bother this?" Ask Adreano.

"It really shouldn't be. But, we don't know what to do with this big neutral party" Youngjoo replied seriously.

Adreano glanced at his watch. Five more minutes the bell of the first lesson will ring. Adreano hurriedly asked Youngjoo something else.

"What does it mean to be a big neutral party?" Adreano asked in a whispering tone.

"He said the principal didn't take anyone's side, so did Mr. Sandro and some teachers. They're Anti-bribery. Even my mother could not afford to bribe them hahaha" Youngjoo replied with a laugh and patted Adreano on the shoulder.

'So, some are still living a good life in the present' Adreano murmured inwardly.

The bell rings, the hour mark of the first lesson begins. Then Youngjoo glanced at Adreano for a bit and said,

"You have to be careful from now on" he said.

The front door opened, a middle-aged teacher named, Mr. Jonathan entered the classroom. All the students immediately sat in their respective places. Mr. Jonathan hints to Youngjoo to start a greeting.

"Ready!" Youngjoo. All the students in grade 2-2 immediately stood up.

"Greetings!" Youngjoo again. The disciples bowed in greeting to Mr. Jonathan.

"Good morning, Mr. Jonathan!" exciting class 2-2.

"Morning everyone! Please Sit!" Greet Mr. Jonathan. He then climbed onto the front pulpit of the blackboard and opened the file board containing the absences he was carrying.

Mr. Jonathan watched the whole class and stopped when he saw Adreano's face and pointed at him.

"You, the transfer student?" Ask Mr. Jonathan.

"Ready, yes mister" answered Adreano.

"Ekhemm, Mr. Jonathan, let me do an inspection on your class" explained Mr. Sandro who stepped foot into class 2-2.

"Please Mr. Sandro. It is your duty" replied Mr. Jonathan with a forced smile.

After that Mr. Sandro started walking around in class. One by one the students put their bags on the table. Silent atmosphere. Maybe because of panic or a little nervous. After a while, Mr. Sandro approached Adreano. Then raise next to his eyebrows. Then hold Adreano's backpack.

Adreano just calm down, because he felt himself doing nothing that violated the order. He also upholds order since he was in his Military Academy first. Mr. Sandro stopped looking into Adreano's backpack, lifting a plastic ziplock containing Methamphetamine (gourd). Adreano was surprised and put on a look of surprise.

'How can I have narcotics in my backpack?! ' Tanya Adreano in heart.

Joseph, Hyerim and Youngjoo stared at Adreano in disbelief. They were also surprised, how could the narcotics in Adreano. There were a lot of whispers from the students of the class who did not believe in it either.

'Ha? is he the new kid already wearing that? '

'Is it okay for him to move here to get it? pffftt '

'Whoa, whereas handsome yes, but it is a pity that his youth use narcotics '

There were sounds from all over the class commenting on it. The class is no longer in a quiet condition. Adreano remained calm as he felt innocent of possession of this narcotic. He closed his eyes for a moment. He heard a lot of words from all over the class.

...Plakkkp...

The sound of a loud slap sounded and made the classroom atmosphere become silent. The slap landed right on Adreano's right cheek and made Adreano open his eyes spontaneously. Adreano's cheeks looked red and bloody, but he endured the pain and remained conscious and calm. The other disciples did not dare to look at Adreano and Mr. Sandro.

"Answer of my every question honestly Mr. Heinze!" Jerk Mr. Sandro.

"Ready mister !" Adreano.

"Is this Methamphetamine (sabu) yours?!" Shouted him.

"Ready, not mister !" Adreano answered with a flat face.

Prekk... Preracking

The sound of Rattan being hit towards Adreano's arm. Adreano was just silent and not twitching, he endured the pain of the blow.

"It would be nice if it wasn't you, why would it be here Mr. Heinze!" Ask Mr. Sandro again.

"Ready, I don't know either..." Adreano spontaneously replied. The answer made Mr. Sandro was getting angry.

"I told you to answer my question honestly!" Decisive Mr. Sandro raised his hand to hit Adreano again.

Youngjoo who sat on the front bench of Adreano, clucked in annoyance and stopped Mr. Sandro. And looked at him with a serious look.

"Mister has crossed the line" Youngjoo said

"How dare you oppose me like this! Outstretched your mother chairman of the Committee" Mr. Sandro.

After hearing the words of Mr. Sandro Youngjoo was getting irritated and glaring.

"This sister has nothing to do with me as a committee boy or whatever ! I just wanted to say Mister crossed the line. Is it not shame to be an educator with this attitude and temperament?" Reply Youngjoo.

"It's over, stop it! Mr. Sandro I admit you are also excessive and do not see my existence here as a homeroom teacher. Get your hands off her. Kim Young-joo!" Mr's orders. Jonathan.

Youngjoo immediately released the clutches of his hands from Mr. Sandro. Mr. Sandro looked annoyed he immediately walked to the classroom exit. And then looked again at Youngjoo, Adreano and Mr. Jonathan.

"Don't expect you today to be free! I'll write it down in a surveillance journal today! and wait for your rehabilitation time to be set!" Strictly out of class.

Outside of grades 2-2, some students went out with their homeroom due to the commotion that occurred in the first hour. Including Simon and Harris. They wondered what was going on in class 2-2.

. . .

[In the meantime in class. . . ]

"Kim Youngjoo calm down! And the others stopped gossiping and chatting. Adreano Heinze, go to the school clinic now!" Mr's orders. Jonathan.

Youngjoo sat back in his chair and stared out the window. Then, the other disciples immediately opened their textbooks. Hyerim looked at Adreano with a worried look on her face, and so did Joseph. Adreano walked slowly out of the classroom. His face was flat and still trying to endure the pain.

Outside the classroom, Simon stood with a puzzled look on his face after seeing a cut on Adreano's right cheek. He immediately pulled Adreano's arm. That made him more in pain.

"Woy ! don't pull your hand. You're adding to the wound, stupid!" Adreano's remarks were spontaneous.

Simon let go of his grasp. She laughed and apologized.

"I'm sorry, let me treat her at the school clinic" she said gently according to her calm character.

"Huh?! why?" adreano asked Simon as he walked slowly.

"Maybe because you don't know the school clinic yet and today I have a schedule to help at the school clinic" she replied with a smile.

"Oh. please help her to the school Clinic" Pinta Adreano who then followed Simon's steps who drove her to the School Clinic.

Along the way to the Adreano School Clinic was completely silent, not even asking Simon why he wanted to help her. While Simon looked at Adreano for a moment, he wanted to ask what had happened to him. But both remain silent.

'not me...' Adreano said in his heart as he continued to follow Simon's steps towards the School Clinic.
