Returning to the atmosphere at Junior High School, where Gerald was looking for his identity as a teenager. And the hour of rest arrived.
"We're going to the cafeteria, Bro!" take Leo with you while packing all the school supplies into a bag.
Gerald glanced at Jenia who seemed to still be sitting on her stool, with her hands still dancing on top of a book.
"Just go first! I have something to finish!" answer Gerald.
"Related?"
"Yep!"
"Okay!"
Eventually Leo left with Zain and the others left the classroom. Leave a few students in there.
"Hi, Gerald! You're not going to the cafeteria?" ask a female student from behind her. "Now do you want to be with us?" they try to get along.
"Oh, no!" gerald replied smiling flatly.
"All right then.. Hye!" said the girl smiling sweetly at Gerald. Of course to draw sympathy from the son of the Mafia.
Now Gerald leaned his back on the back of the chair. Staring at Jenia's back who looked still busy drawing. Gerald thought, what's in the picture of the girl?
Because all the students had already completed the assignment from Miss Donna. It doesn't feel possible if Jenia writes Miss Donna's subjects. From the movement of his hands, it seemed like he was drawing something.
Taking a deep breath, Gerald stood up while chortling. But the girl seemed uninterested in responding. Finally Gerald sat back on the bench in front of him. Which means he is now aligned with Jenia's desk who has not yet glanced at her existence.
' Surprisingly, all the girls stole a look at me. But why is he silent? '
The 14-year-old inner ABG just emerged from the arsenal of martial arts. He scratched the back of his head that was not itchy. While continuing to steal a glance at Jenia who has not also turned her eyes from the pencil that dances on the white paper.
"Your name is Jenia?" just ask Gerald.
Feeling that someone had mentioned her name, the girl with brownish black hair turned to the right side. And saw the look in Gerald's eyes that were staring at him unblinkingly.
"Yes." Jenia replied flatly and briefly, and refocused on the white paper that had been painted beautifully.
Not getting any questions back made Gerald awkward. But as much as possible he will not give up to get to know the girl further. He saw the whole classroom, there was only himself and Jenia in the classroom.
"Aren't you resting in the cafeteria?" ask gerald again.
Jenia simply answered with a sleigh without turning her head or glancing at Gerald, who wished she would get her hands on him. And that made Gerald just be able to gulp his saliva in a slight embarrassment.
There were dozens of girls he met on his first day of school. And it's just Jenia who looks hard to get close to. Or just selling expensive?
"Not hungry?" ask Gerald again.
This time Jenia looked at Gerald. It's just that again - again just a slab he got.
Gerald was only able to sniff angrily, when the girl looked down again.
' It makes me curious! '
Gerald murmured in his heart.
"Iwrap what?" ask Gerald again and again.
"It's nothing!" Jenia shook her head weakly and replied in an ever-flat tone.
"If it's nothing what, then I can see, dong?"
Gerald said with a slightly added smile.
"Can't!" jenia answered immediately tidied up all her books, and put them in her bag.
"Why in the pack? I was just kidding.
"It's okay, I'm out!"
"Where? may follow?" ask Gerald.
"Library. Why are you following me?" jenia asked as she stood up from her chair.
"You know, I'm a new student here. So it's not wrong if I want to know you too?" gerald replied with a handsome smile of his.
"Yes, I know!" jenia replied, "but here are 19 students, why follow me to the library? Why don't you go with Leo and Zian who go to the cafeteria?' ask Jenia, "or Sisca!" cerocos Jenia replies to Gerald's unheard-of answer is just a cliche excuse to cover up his hidden intentions.
"Why indeed?" ask Gerald not to lose," is there a ban on following you?"
Sighing, "not really.." Jenia answered, twitching her shoulders.
Then the 14-year-old girl who had reached 155 cm in height also stepped her feet towards the classroom door. And Gerald reflexively followed Jenia's steps.
***
"Do you like designing clothes?" ask Gerald when he sees Jenia pulling a design book from the line of design & graphics.
"Yes!" jenia answered flat while opening one by one page of the book with various explanations and examples of dress designs.
"Me too!" sahut Gerald just like that.
"Oh, huh?" jenia asked a glance in disbelief at Gerald who from the beginning he considered just seducing him.
And when the girl's wry eyes glanced at him, Gerald smiled smirk with a seductive look.
"Basic Alaskan crocodile!" jenia sneered at Gerald.
Hearing Jenia's sneer, Gerald giggled. For the first time, someone called himself a crocodile. And what is more interesting is the name Alaskan crocodile.
"I'm not a crocodile, girl! But I'm a crocodile handler!"
Back Jenia glanced at Gerald who was leaning on one of the bookshelves close to her.
"Times?" jenia asked, looking at her trust in Gerald who was considered too confident.
"Hm. I have a crocodile at home! you wanna see?" bargain Gerald seriously.
This time Jenia turned to Gerald who was still staring at her. Then he lifted both shoulders. After that he immediately went from before Gerald by carrying a design book towards the row of tables and reading chairs.
Sitting face to face, Jenia just focused her head down to read and observe the pictures of dress designs and so on.
While many girls end up stealing each other's eyes on Gerald who only focuses on Jenia. Whispers occur in the reading room.
"Jenie?"
"Hm?"
Smiling ignorantly, "you know..."
"No." said Jenia flat and short. Even before Gerald made his point.
Gerald chuckled with Jenia's short answer to cut the conversation.
"You're beautiful!" gerald stared at Jenia's beautiful face.
But apparently Jenia is not easily touched by the sweet sentences of men like Gerald. He simply flicked his lips, a lazy omen to answer Gerald's words.
"Jenie?" call Jio again.
"Hm?"
"You're sweet!" continued Gerald.
But the sweet one just raised both eyebrows, without intending to reply to Gerald again.
"Jenie?" call Gerald again.
"Please don't be noisy! it's library. Not a stage show!" the barinton sound from the room guard table rang out loud in the ears of Gerald and the others.
Suddenly all the students including Jenia gave a mocking smile to Gerald who had just been commemorated by the library guard. 45-year-old Wania, with her fat body and unfriendly face.
Gerald who saw the way Jenia smiled mocking him, was challenged to attract the attention of the girl.
"Yes, Miss!" exclaimed Gerald loudly, turning to the campus guard who immediately shook his head in astonishment.
Only then did Gerald reply loudly to not be noisy, instead the phone in his pants pocket sounded very loud.
Of course it made all turned to Gerald who was too late to find his phone in his pants pocket. Including Jenia who returned to smile. Because Gerald might get a second warning from the library guard.
Once found, quickly Gerald turned off the call with his upset face. Without seeing what name is on there. And immediately change the ringing mode to silent.
"If you want a phone call, please get out!" the library guard again.
"Sorry, Miss! not so!" gerald replied with a forced smile accompanied by two eyebrows that moved up and down.
And that keeps the guard focused on his job.
"Why is it turned off?" jenia asked.
"It doesn't matter!" answer Gerald.
"What if it's Papa, Mama or your brother who's in danger?"
"Huh?" squeak Gerald. Feeling that Jenia's sentence has a point, she quickly looks at the screen to find who contacted her as she approached a beautiful girl.
"What!" pekik Gerald. Concubine maybe. If necessary don't smpai Jneia know who just contacted him.
"Hows it? who called you?" jenia asked curiously looking at Gerald's expression.
"Oh, not who."
"Why shock?"
"Emm. It's okay. It's not important." replied Gerald with a sweet smile while putting the phone back in his pants pocket.
"Ka..."
Not finished asking, suddenly the bell of the lesson will return at the beginning, making Gerald shut his mouth by force. Swallowing back the question he almost threw at Jenia. Not satisfied with the experience of meeting Jenia. But the bell rang, and Jenia approached the guard table to borrow a book.
So Gerald chooses to return the book, and waits for Jenia at the library door.
***
For Gerald, the day was imperfect. Because he failed to get Jenia's phone number. The girl was apparently quite difficult to just approach.
"Must use the heart maybe!" he murmured unconsciously.
"What must the heart wear, Mr Gerald?" ask a bodyguard who is driving a special car for the youngest son of the Mafia Lord.
"It's okay - what!" gerald replied flatly and a little surprised when he realized that there was a driver in front who was taking him back to the Father's palace.
***
If there is Gerald who is on his way home, then on another chart there is Jio who picks up Virginia.
"I asked permission to take Virginia to the beach, Mrs Brown!" jio said to Mrs Brown.
"Smiling sweetly, call Aunty alone!" answer Mama Virginia. "And go! take good care of my daughter!"
Nodding respectfully, "surely, Aunty!" answer Jio sure.
"And.thank you for your help last night." continued Mama Virginia.
He nodded back, "it's my duty to keep all of them in close contact with me, Aunty!"
Mama Virginia nodded with a sincere smile.
"Ma? Nia go first!" pamit Nia kissed her Mama's cheek with affection.
"Yes, Nia! heart - heart!"
Go two befriended leave the mansion owned by businessman Irgee Brown. Towards the beach on the edge of town. Which they had come to at one time.
Jio held a happy smile, because he managed to bring a beautiful girl who always adorned the nights in his dreams.
