Village Girl With a Million Dreams
Chapter 99 (Searching for Perpetrators )

Ayu stared intently at the exam matter in front of her. The face of Malik who did not smile as usual.

Ayu blames herself for insisting on leaving when she is unwell.

The shadow of anger Malik did not want to go from his head. It feels sad not ignored and ignored.

Ayu's tears could not be contained, dripping wet the problem paper in her hands. Crying and crying in silence. Ayu took a deep breath, gathering positive energy so as not to get carried away.

Jofan realizes Ayu's tears she's trying to hide from him. Sometimes Jofan feels weird because he cares about Ayu a lot. No one wants to hurt themselves.

Jofan cradled the feeling of what was in his heart, not love. This affection is like the bond of a Kaka who loves his siblings.

Jofan walks over to the teacher's desk asking for a new exam. It was impossible to let Ayu walk by herself showing her sad face to everyone.

Jofan placed the test matter slowly in front of Ayu. Do not want to make Ayu surprised because he knows Ayu is currently crying and holding him back so as not to explode.

Jofan did not say anything, fishing his talk at this time would make Ayu even sadder. Not the right time to look for answers to his curiosity about what happened to his best friend.

"Don't think of anything else. Concentrate on these exam questions." Ayu simply nodded without looking into Jofan's eyes.

She was afraid of not being able to hold back her emotions to not cry back.

Not long after the two-subject exam is completed, the children are given time to rest before continuing the next subject exam.

Jofan looked sadly at the pale face of ayu and there was no spirit. There is no passion, only sadness.

"What are you thinking? Can I know why my best friend is sad?"Jofan locked Ayu in the seat so as not to avoid her. Staring at him with a sharp gaze without blinking.

"I'm not papa, just a little dizzy." Ganged without looking Jofan in the eye. Ayu knew Jofan wouldn't just believe it.

"Don't lie to me, it won't work." Jofan folded both his hands. Forcing Ayu not to shoulder her own burden.

"Please, please." Ayu did not want to make people bother because of her. All this time they have all meant a lot of his presence in Ayu's life.

Ayu does not want Oji to desperately harm important people in Ayu's life.

For Ayu the happiness of all who love Ayu is more valuable than anything in this world.

"Then do you think with you being quiet I'll stay quiet?" Smiling wryly.

Jofan only thinks that Malik is the source of Ayu's suffering at this time. He's definitely not allowed to go camping next week. Can't let that guy make her sad.

As long as he was friendly with her, Jofan never once saw Ayu sad. He was always happy, making all his friends happy. Though we all know how Ayu lived her life all this time.

He had to stand on his own feet to finance his needs all along. Never complain when his best friend always lure Ayu to share his pain.

Making his friends where he complained all his difficulties. But none of them succeeded, he was too firm and never wanted to give up. His nature amazed anyone and could not help loving him.

"This has nothing to do with Malik!" Ayu tries to guess the contents of Jofan's head.

This girl, she might know what I'm thinking. Feeling strange themselves. They can always read minds without saying them.

"Then what? Is there anything else that makes you suffer? I know, I can at least see my best friend sad." Ayu lowered her head, thinking of telling her what really happened.

But given Kak Oji's threat, Ayu's heart weakens. He was just afraid that Oji would be reckless and harm anyone who was valuable in his life.

"I really don't know what to do, I'm afraid." Jofan knows Ayu very well, he just pretends to be okay.

Look, there must be something bothering him. He couldn't have looked this sad if nothing serious. Jofan spoke inwardly. Trying to guess what happened but not finding any answers.

The only way he has to talk to Malik's brother. Ayu's sadness worries her a lot, she's not a whiny girl who will show her sadness just to get attention.

"Well want a story? I promise I won't tell anyone if it's necessary." Still trying, but Ayu still looks doubtful.

"Give me time, I really need someone who can make me feel comfortable and not guilty. Because it's all my fault." Ayu sobbed, making Jofan end his curiosity.

"If you are not ready, do not force yourself. I'll wait patiently for him." Seeing her tears weaken. Grasping Ayu's trembling hand.

It was strange what Ayu thought. One side she can't keep everything by herself, but on the other hand she is very worried that Oji's sister will really hurt the people she loves.

Ayu could not let such a terrible thing happen, let alone everything because of her. Brother Oji is disappointed that Ayu may open a space that makes Kak Oji have more hope with his feelings.

Malik has arrived in front of Rey's restaurant. I don't know what made Malik step into this place to seek answers and help.

Malik ordered the VVIP room as usual to speak freely. He was fed up and wanted to immediately find the bright spot of the problem that made the woman he loved suffer.

"Rey, sit down Rey. There's something I want to talk about." Malik requested special services from the restaurant owner.

Rey can't resist, it's part of her job as a restaurant owner.

Rey just smiles, Malik and Ayu always remind her of the destruction of her family in the past. It was very difficult to separate them with all the barrage of events that destroyed his family.

"Rey, you still can't accept who Ayu is?" Malik is disappointed, Rey still can not accept the reality.

"I've tried, but it's not that easy." Exhaling his breath rough.

As long as it's not Rey not trying, the more she forces to accept everything, the more it makes Rey remember it as her past hatred and failure.

"Alright, I hope you can realize where we are and how to deal with all this going forward." Malik straightened his seat.

Not a good time to talk about how each other feels. That's not the purpose Malik came for this time.

"What are you coming here for? It doesn't seem like you're just stopping by to eat!" Rey is serious.

"There's someone who's been bothering our family lately, especially Ayu." Malik saw clearly the change in the look on Rey's face that described the feeling of worry.

This man could not hide how much he loved Ayuna. Malik feels like he's talking to the right person right now. Rey will definitely help herself find the real culprit.

Malik tells a series of events that have hurt Ayu lately. Rey was devastated to drown with her hatred, she did not even pay attention to the last time she met Ayu.

Not from her, Rey only felt guilty every time she saw Ayu. She's a little girl who has a big spirit to change her identity.

He never complained about what God gave him in his life. He had to work harder than girls his age before meeting Malik.

"What's the purpose of this guy bothering Ayu?" Rey is still confused by the story Malik tells.

"I don't understand either, I'm confused. Just like you Rey. Ayu covered it all up." Malik spoke openly. Lately Malik felt Ayu was a little strange.

She just cried without saying yes actually happened. Malik was frustrated by it.

"There must be something that makes Ayu silenced, we must investigate." Rey is furious that her little girl is being hurt.

"I'm suspicious of someone, do you know who the real culprit is? Try watching!" Malik gave his cell phone.

Look at the CCTV footage Malik took from his home.

"We have to keep an eye on this guy." Malik and Rey looked at each other. They believe one person who is the mastermind behind the events that have befallen Ayu lately.

Malik is relieved now, he's happy because he knows Rey doesn't completely hate Ayu. It's all just a process for Rey to accept who Ayu really is. And it's not as easy as we talk. There was a heart that was wounded by Ayu's presence.

Malik has returned to school, not wanting to miss a second gives Ayu a chance in danger.

He waited in front of the class feeling happy. Ayu smiled again with her friends.

"Yes, Malik's brother has come, he's waiting in front of the class." Jofan's whispers stopped Ayu's laughter with her classmate sitting nearby.

They have finished their exams and are still waiting for school to come home soon.

Soon the school bell rang, indicating all students were allowed to die from classes to go home.

Jofan valiantly went to Malik who was still standing in front of the class. He could not go home with his current feelings.

"Can we talk? We have something to talk about, it's important." Malik smiled, he knew Jofan was mad at him.

"We're talking in the parking lot, Ayu can wait for us in the car. I have to keep an eye on her." Malik did not want to leave Ayu alone.

This time Malik had to face the anger of his wife Kaka Laki. Blood ties cannot be blocked by anything. They will eventually find a way to love each other.
