Blue Scandals
29 - Trying to change

The first morning of UTS it looked bright. All the students were waiting in the classroom corridor waiting for the entrance bell to ring. Some are learning, some are chatting, some are just playing hp. Lilia and Halina at that time focused on reading the material she had recorded.

Reza looked at Lilia and Halina. He still felt shocked because the appearance of Halina he met at work was very different from when she was at school. His premonition said there was something strange about the dark brown-eyed girl.

Shortly thereafter the bell rang. All students enter their classes and sit in numbered seats. Lilia worked on the matter calmly, as well as the other students.

Julio who was watching the room did not pay much attention to the class and instead read a book.

Since last Friday, Julio had tried not to look at Lilia or invite her to talk so as not to cause a reaction from some people who might pay attention.

Lilia finished first while working on the matter of UTS, she immediately gathered it to the teacher's desk in front and then walked out of the classroom. Some students looked at him with astonished and amazed looks.

Lilia sat on one of the chairs in the classroom corridor, she opened up again the material notes for the next UTS schedule.

The student who dropped out of the class was next Reza. The man sat across from Lilia. He observed the brown-eyed woman's serious expression. But her gaze was sidetracked as soon as Halina also walked out of that classroom.

Halina immediately approached Lilia. “Lilll..”.

Lilia turned her head, seeing Halina standing up with a sullen expression made Lilia confused. “Loh why?”

Halina sat down beside Lilia. “It looks like my value will go down deh... , it is very dizzy so answer the origin deh.”

Lilia laughed at what her friend said. “Kan still a lot of free time, can be thought of first.”

“No, I'm dizzy. Mathematics is really hard,” said Halina with an annoyed expression.

Lilia laughed looking at the pouting Halina. “If you want to learn Mathematics, learn with Gavin tuh, pinter him if you explain the lesson.”

Halina leaned her back on the chair. “Ngak ah, I don't want to think anymore.”

Reza stayed in place wearing earphones while reading a book. Although he really did not turn on any music.

Halina looked around, some students had already come out of the classroom and pulled out a book from her bag to check the answers she had already worked on.

“They are strange yes, why check the answers that have been answered, after all it will not change anything...It is not better to use the time to learn the next schedule?” halina muttered softly.

“Yes is okay, right? They just want to make sure what they have chosen,” Lilia replied with a calm expression.

“Yaa, different people are different characters anyway,” said Halina while laughing.

Lilia simply smiled then refocused on reading her notebook. Halina looked bored, she checked her phone.

“Lili, I go to the toilet first yes,” said Halina with a smile.

“OK,” replied Lilia who remained focused on reading her notebook.

Halina got up from her seat and went to the toilet.

...◇◇◇...

After UTS that day ended, Reza intended to go home immediately and prepare to do his new job. But Gio and his comrades were already waiting in the parking lot.

“Ke 'Melon', Za,” said Gio who has been rendering on Reza motorbike.

“Ngak deh, I work now, because chasing the deadline project this week I can not play,” said Reza who has been standing near his motorbike.

“Your work now? Wh why? Your family is rich,” said Gio confused.

“Yes are rich in them, not me.”

“Lah just so you are still financed all, why work?”

“Make a thoughtover,” Reza replied briefly. He declined to elaborate further on the purpose of his statement.

“Yeah, I was with Farhan aja,” said Gio who was a bit disappointed.

“Sorry yes,” said Reza who felt bad.

“Let's relax, I first if so,” said Gio then passed away.

Reza let out a long sigh, he turned on his motor and left immediately.

Fani who was also in the parking lot heard all the talk of Reza and Gio. The short haired woman looked confused.

“Sorry Fan, was invited to chat with Endah ma'am, has been waiting a long time huh?” said Lilia who had just appeared after coming from the teacher room.

“No, relax, come on,” replied Fani while turning on her motorbike.

On the way home, Fani told me about what she had just heard from the parking lot.

Just like Fani, Lilia was also shocked to hear Reza start working. He began to think things through and remembered what Halina had said to him.

The Black Major photo studio…

.

.

Reza did a good job. Paras coming from his mother makes it look stunning with branded items.

“Sipp, Reza's turn is yes,” said the photographer gave a thumbs up.

“Still mas,” said Reza while nodding slightly. The black-eyed man headed to a table that provided drinking water to staff.

“Pffttt, in the school is famous for being a delinquent but here it looks polite yes,” said Halina who was ready with clothes to be photographed.

Reza refused to respond and continued drinking the water in the bottle.

“Let's make a deal,” said Halina again with a flat expression.

“What deal?”

“Let me not tell Lilia if you are a delinquent who likes to fight, you do not tell me about me here to Lilia.”

“He already knows, say aja.”

Halina looked upset but laughed. “Hmmm if so, he already knows not yet if you... “ Haliba paused his words for a moment.

“ng * b a t....” says Halina without sound.

Reza sat in a chair not far from Halina. “Lu why the hell?"

Halina smiled as her lure succeeded. “Gue need certainty and guarantee.”

“What certainty?”

“Yes don't tell Lilia about me at work.”

Reza frowned, for a moment he felt suspicious of what Halina said. The black-eyed man let out a long breath. “You'll have to."

After saying that, Reza immediately went towards the dressing room leaving Halina who was getting irritated.

“Halinaa it's your turn here,” said the photographer while waving.

Halina smiled. “Siap kak.”

After changing clothes, Reza intends to go home but Mona who came to visit that day forced Reza not to go home first.

Mona asks Reza to join the night with the rest of the staff as a celebration of the completion of this month's fashion magazine issue.

Reza, who was feeling sad, finally accepted Mona's half-forced invitation. The black-eyed man sat outside the photo studio waiting for Mona and the rest of the staff to finish. He observed the tailor packing to go home.

“Halina is done too, come on Reza, oh yes you ride a car yes all of you,” said Mona who suddenly appeared from the photo studio.

“Eh but I brought the motor, tan.”

Mona seemed to think. “Already, but do not speed yes ride the motor. You know Saeroso's restaurant, right? We'll eat there.”

Reza frowned, he had actually never been to a restaurant by that name. “Oh okay aunt, later I see Gmaps aja.”

Shortly thereafter Halina walked out of the photo studio wearing a knee-length black skirt and black clothes wrapped in jeans.

The dark brown-eyed woman immediately snatched away to the car without greeting Reza first.

Mona and the rest of the staff head for a different car while Reza heads for his bike. The black-eyed man rode his motorcycle to the family restaurant called Mona earlier.

Reza approached then sat down on the empty seat available, opposite her Halina sat down with a flat expression.

Reza really did not understand why the expression of the woman could be so different at school and where she is now.

The food ordered was delivered by several waiters. The large table was filled with food that looked appetizing.

Mona gave a short speech and invited everyone to eat. Reza tried to maintain a friendly expression on her face even though she did not like such gathering events.

Halina also only ate enough and kept talking as necessary when the gathering event. He only occasionally responded to long chats with the others.

Reza, who knows two different sides of her classmate, does not want to interfere in her personal life. Even so, Reza intended to observe Halina secretly as she was quite close to Lilia.

Drtts…

The sound of the phone shocked Reza. The black-eyed man asked permission to pick up the phone and walk away.

Clik...

^^^“Jam is still not home? Don't be a son of a bitch! Go home now!”^^^

The voice on the phone was so loud that Reza kept the phone away from her ear.

“Reza is coming home soon,” said the black-eyed man.

He hung up his phone and went back to where he had gathered. Reza approached Mona and said slowly.

“Sorry it looks like I have to go home now aunt,” said Reza while forcing a smile.

Mona looks confused. “Oh so yes, yaudah wait for a moment so that some of the food is wrapped.”

“Nevent need tan.”

“Eh do not refuse, just wait.”

Mona immediately called the waiter to wrap some of the food. Reza just fell silent while waiting.

Halina looked unconcerned and kept chatting with the other staff. Soon the waiter brought two bags of paper and handed them to Mona.

“This brings, greetings to parents Reza,”, Mona said as she handed over the food parcel.

Reza accepted and thanked him and left.

“Your cement is very handsome huh Halii,” Mona said with a smile towards Halina.

“Ganteng anyway, but at school he said the most handsome chairman of OSIS," said Halina while taking dessert in front of him.

“Wah? Really? Are you the same chairman of OSIS? Try to bargain her as a model,” said Mona with sparkling eyes.

“Just know him anyway, besides he is a busy OSIS chairman so yes definitely there will be no time to make while working,” replied Halina with a lazy expression.

“That's yes, what a pity.. ” Mona said with a disappointed expression.

Halina did not respond and remained focused with the food before her.

Drtts….

Halina checked her phone and immediately finished the food that was taken. “Tante Mona, I'm back first yes, already picked up ayang.”

“Well this is the model why on all the blur? Hufft yaudah you be careful on the road, permission to your order first if you go home at night.”

Halina smiled with a strange expression. “They didn't come home today kok.”

Mona was silent, she just stared at the departure of her nephew and let out a long sigh.

In a cafe in the city of T…

.

.

Jun sat down with the brown haired woman in the cafe outside.

“Nih proof that I have already collected,” said the woman while putting a brown map on the table.

Jun took the map and checked the contents. “Thanks, Elena.”

“Lu have found places that are transaction locations?”

“Udah, there are three places, two of which are usual so a place to hang out teenagers, some are still Junior High as well.”

“Crazy,” said the woman who was called Elena. His expression turned upset.

“Gue knows this garbage industry is not a good thing, but targetin minors for 'it' instead of outrageous?” elena said again.

Jun stuffed the brown map into his bag. The hazel-eyed man smiled bitterly without saying anything.

“What the hell is in their brains? Kan teen money is also not much-much very,” said Elena again.

“More easily nargetin such age because they are high curiosity and times of contact, easily affected.”

“Yes they mostly have no money.”

“Lu do not know kayak gini cases are common in several countries in Asia? Although they do not have money to pay, they still have a body.”

Elena was quite surprised by what Jun said. The Swedish Indonesian crossbred woman understood what Jun had said and she felt angry, but she also realized that she was in the same rotten place as the garbage.

“Not the officials of dark organizations in this country have agreed that it will not nargetin minors?”

“Yes, but everything can change, they start to lose the adult market that is beginning to realize about life, so their target can change. Before the rules of the center change, we have to move fast,” Jun said with a serious expression.

Elena dumped her r*cock butts in the ashtray in front of her. He took the drink on the table. “If you want to change the deal instead of needing approval from 4 large active organizations? ‘Ayah’ will definitely not be saved if it happens.”

Jun took a long breath. “Everything is still uncertain, we must be ready whatever the conditions are right?”

Elena was silent, she looked at the small glass she was holding. The blue-eyed woman let out a long breath.

Notus which is one of the organizations as well as dark businesses that come from Central Java is a place that has become a home for marginalized people like Elena.

Despite the dark effort, its leader has a rule prohibiting all its partners from selling ‘g’ to minors.

At first glance, their business looks like ordinary businesses such as business consultants and investments, but behind it there are other fields that are not known to the general public.

There are 3 other large dark organizations scattered in various regions in Indonesia. In addition there are also some middle-level dark businesses such as Styx which there are 7 with different types of businesses and different areas of power.

“School safe, Jun?” elena asked suddenly.

“Aman anyway, but there is one child who seems to be involved quite a lot in the spread n*rkoba.”

Elena took one more r*cock from the black wrap in her jacket pocket. “Girls that look like Nina... how about?” elena asked doubtfully.

“Gue has no relationship with EurusZ. He's just a regular student.”

Jun took a glass in front of him and drank it.

“Kok I worry ya... ,” says Elena hesitate.

Jun seemed to be thinking. “Worry how?”

“Gue was afraid ‘they’ party saw the woman and thought she had something to do with Nina... ,” said Elena with a long sigh.

Jun was silent for a moment, he never thought up to it. Somehow there was a little anxiety in his heart but he tried to cover it up.

“It's probably like it's small, he rarely goes to the city, so yeah...” Jun did not continue his words. He himself doubted what he wanted to say.

“ ‘They’ don't know if you're nyamar?” ask Elena to make sure.

“Aman kok, several times I met the ‘they’ party as well but all did not recognize me, yes even though try nyari tau and free.”

Elena took a long breath. “Be careful, don't make any mistakes.”

Jun was silent, he again drank the dark-colored liquid that was in the small glass before him. There was a sudden sense of worry in his heart.
