Chapter 4: Chapter 4 – the deciding moment in life

Days has passed, nothing in life moment in life and boredom. Learning school with Malay is hard. 2 days before the ‘orientation’ day they all talking about. Seeing them looking excited. 

“Finally the orientation day”

“This is going to be fun”

“I will be part of the tradition”

“My family will be proud of this”

I wonder what that will be. I rather not to get involved. The teacher announce the commence time for the orientation.

“This Saturday at night all of us will be involved, attendance is compulsory”

Lucas announce to us 

“This is the time we the leaders faction, must show the followers who will lead this school…”

Everyone shouted together. My gut feeling telling me not to join this orientation. Lucas called me 

“Alex this is a compulsory event and no other excuse other than real emergency, you better learn and experience because this is part of the tradition”

“fine…”

Lucas announce “including the primary is also involved”

My gut feeling came to a reality, a premonition that is really bad. Everyone look at me as if I must join them. Lunch time and I meet with Hana and she had already been close to Steward. Sylvia however has tame a bit, and she tend to look away from me. Did I done something to make her like that? Steward pull my shirt 

“Brother Alex, thanks for helping my sister…”

“No prob kid, just be cool with my little for me ya..” 

Sylvia and Hana still going on ranting 

“Bad girl!! Stay away from Big Brother!! I warn you”

The more she is angry the cuter she gets. Sylvia become even closer to her. Steward tried to talk to me again while reading his books.

“Don’t let Hana join the orientation…”

“Let me guess, mobbing…” 

Steward just nod. I knew it, something is really wrong about this school. It's really pisses me off!! Those student in the elites is doing something. Damien what would you do, if facing this kind of discrimination between your race? Shit!! 

“If anything happen to me in school, I hope you look after Hana for me”

Steward wonder why and I just smile at him.

“Sylvia look after sister for a while, I want to meet Mr Rahman for a while” 

“Sure but why?” 

“Just do it”

“Big brother…”

“You better be back to class, squirt” 

At least, I’m relief that Sylvia is looking after my little sister, because Hana is in the common class. If anything happen to her, I don’t care anymore and I going to destroy everything. I approach Mr Rahman’s room. One of the prefect tried to stop me. 

“There is a meeting right now”

“Move asshole…”

I barge in the meeting room I saw Halim and another girl that is a prefect. 

“Hey, we are having a meeting here!!”

“I’m not talking to you bitch”

“That murderous look means you want to ask something, meet me outside near of the hostel”

“You better be…” 

I walk off, and straight towards the place that he wanted to meet. The gangsta spirit in me came back again because something is going to happen to the one that I cared.

“Want do you want to know?”

“Mobbing…”

Mr Rahman flinch his eye brow, seems spot on. I really can’t wait to punch him, after that I’m going to punch my dad after this. 

“Maybe or maybe not”

“Don’t play games with me”

“This is not America where you shoot whatever you could see”

I really burning with rage right now. But suddenly I remember Natalie is crying when I was in cuff from the cops in LA. where Damien and me join a gang that called the ‘102’ 

“You should think with your head for once, even if you kill me, someone will take my place. By Allah only knows what will happen. Answer me when on the orientation day” 

Mr Rahman hold my shoulder and leave the place. I kick the wall really hard that it crack. That is my feeling right now. Someone was behind me, suddenly hug me. It is Hana, she is crying.

“Stop it Big Brother!! You scaring people now!! I don’t want you to disappear again, ahhhh!! Waaaa!!!” I was gripping my fist and shaken in anger. Sylvia and Steward also look at me, they are afraid. That is expected, you don’t know me, you don’t know what I went through only Allah knows what I went through. Hana crying begging me to stop. 

“I promise I will listen to you Big Brother, I want the gentle big brother that cared for me!! Waaa!!!” 

I calm down a bit, and my sanity started to came to my sense. 

“Hana”

“Yes big brother?” 

“Promise me, don’t become like me”

“Yes I will, but I want you back”

Sylvia look terrified yet I know she is trying to talk to me, Steward tried to touch my scar that I got from Hiew. 

“Is it painful?” 

“Yeah, like hell”

“Alex…” 

“She beg for me to find you, she told us that going to you become a monster again” 

“Yeah, I am monster…scared of me?” 

Slyvia shook her head and said to me  

“No, but I know you are a knight in armor” 

Huh?! What is she doing. Her lips kiss my cheek. Hana was shocked and tried to push her away. She tried to protect me again 

“Bad girl get away from big brother!!” 

Steward tried to lecture Sylvia. I begin to smile. I could not hold it.

“Hahahahaha!!” 

Yeah, I’m better than this. Thanks Hana, you really cool me down when I’m really at loss. 

I knock her head 

“You going to miss class, come on I’ll sent with Steward” 

“Sylvia you better head back later you going to miss class”

Sylvia did not listen and said to me

“You better take responsibility, escort me back to the class like usual”

“Fine..”

“Brother Alex…thanks for being my big sister friend”

“Yeah”

Sylvia brighten in delight and clutch my arm and Hana pull her back 

“Let!! my brother go!!” 

We reach their classroom and I escort Sylvia back to her classroom. They look in their eyes annoys me. This commotion is going to give me a strange rumours. I saw Amin and called him.

“Hey Amin…”

“Alex what’s up”

“What are you doing?” 

“See that girl?”

I just saw the strangest thing that I have ever seen. A dancing girl all alone in the school yard. 

“She is Mariam, she is child prodigy in performance arts. She’s in class 3 Melissa. She rejected the elite class…wow…”

I know 99% that Amin is in love. 

“Then go ahead and meet her”

“No way, I did that approach she is like a fairy who runs away from guys like us”

I head towards her 

“Hey!! Alex!! Come back here!!” 

“Hey Mariam!!”

Mariam stop dancing and look at me

“This guy wanted to talk to you”

“Hey Alex…”

Mariam then said to me 

“You are interesting…but what do you want Amin?” 

“Umm….”

Mariam gets closer to Amin

“Huh…what is it?” 

“Uhh….”

“….”

Amin began to mumble

“Just say it Amin!!” I push him to admit

“I like you!! Mariam!!” 

Amin face turn red and Mariam look at him and said 

“I like you too…”

Proud of you Amin. Now you are a man

“I like you too as well”

Huh!? What?! Ain’t that confusing me. It’s not me you should said that. That guy he took his courage just to confess to you.

Amin was also shocked that he froze himself. 

Mariam then hold her head to his chest.

“Hello! Earth to Amin?” 

This strange girl is a natural airhead, own no. I kinda pity with Amin. Then I leave them be. I see Mariam waited Amin. Well at least she doesn’t run away. Since there is no class for these two days. I wonder what is the teacher is doing, pretty boring even if I wanted to be back to class. But I m just annoyed going back to that class. When I arrived at the classroom. It was self study. I sat at my table and someone mumbling to each other. 

“That guy Alex meet the teacher Rahman”

“I heard he scared the prefect”

“He doesn’t look like a model elite to me” 

“His vulgar attitude, doesn’t deserved this class”

That noise is what I called, peer pressure. Something that I learned during my time in America. But I’m used to it, even in America they look at me like I don’t deserved to be there. But meeting friends that had chemistry is I had become now. Someone is calling me, Amin? And Mariam? What the hell?

“Can I talk to you?”

“I said Amin wanted to be with you..”

“Amin is already mine”

“And…?”

“I need to talk to you”

Mariam whisper to my ear

“You know, I had a friend that always talk about you Alex”

Surprised, curious, and confuse at the same time. Who is this girl? Natalie never told me about anyone except…. that? Is that what it is? I remember Natalie tried to beat me every time I talk about New York during her fashion design exhibition. But I just go with the flow then. I stand up and I agreed to talk to her.

“Maybe after school at the podium”

“Podium got it”

 I pick up Hana and head straight to the podium, since today is also Mom will be back late, maybe we could hang around for a while. I saw Amin and Mariam sat there together and KISSING!? Hana saw it with her eyes shining.

“Just like big brother and big sis”

“Don’t look squirt!!” I close her eyes

Her style and attitude is not something like those normal student in this school. Like a familiar feeling back in the states, straight forward talks, and she spoken American slang English. This is getting me curious like hell. Maybe I could find out what is going on. I waited for them and Mariam shouted at us.

“Do you want to watch it like a porn video?”

Oi!! There is my little sister here!! She’ll hear it!! She is definitely under American influence.

“Then when are you going to talk?”

Mariam point her finger to wait while she is intimately kissing Amin. Are you trying to ruin Amin? The way she is leading like she is in control. After for a while, she had stopped kissing and said to Amin.

“There, is enough to convince you that I really like you a lot, got it my boy” 

Amin froze instantly again

“Hello, earth to Amin? Not again”

“He is an idiot…aint that right Alex?”

“Whatever as long he loves you right?” 

“Yep he does…”

“Now what do you want to talk about?” 

Mariam suddenly getting closer to me. And she smelling me?!. What on earth? She look at me like I’m guilty. 

“I smell it…”

“Huh?! What are you talking about?”

She whispered at my ears 

“You’re not a virgin…”

That statement just jolt my head, what is she? A psychic? Hana push her away

“Another bad girl, get away from big brother!!”

I started to become curious and ask her

“Before this school, which school did you went?” 

“International school of performance arts, New York”

Should I need to ask her a bit more? But maybe its not Natalie

“That crazy and out of this box, cosplay girl, she was there during the art performance event in New York. The only one that is wearing a victorian dress”

It's Natalie!! Wait… maybe she did know her? Should I tell her? Or maybe going deep? Damn it!!

“Last week I called her you know…” Mariam smile at me. 

It has to be it! Just maybe at least I would find out what happen in New York.

“You really good at making a girl cried, she is madly in love with you”

Now what?! which girl? How the hell I could figure it out if she keep playing games like this. This really pisses me off!! For fuck sake just tell me the name already will ya! My mind is going crazy like this!

“Enough games!!” 

Mariam did not even flinch or react. That means she is use living in that environment. If its New York then she had live there longer. 

“Harlem is always my home.”

“So..”

“I just got to know her for since the event but she really is a talker, she always called me Mar, that Nat”

“Nat…there is a lot of Nat there…”

“Natalie!! Felicity!! Hawk!!, ring any bells?”

Fuck!! it is her! Then she must known her. I become excited and hold her shoulder trying to find out about Natalie.

“Then…” Hana kick me 

“Big brother stop holding her!!” 

“Then you must be Hana, she talks a lot about you as well”

I felt comfortable talking to her maybe that is reason why. She is also lived in America before.

“You have been in a better place there but why living here?

“Family..what a bummer…when mom started to explain to me that we need to return back to Malaysia, I was really upset about that. I got friends there as well!!

“Right! My mom also suddenly ask us to return back home. 6 years I have been there!”

Amin look at me feeling jealous, and Hana ask her

“Do you know big sis?” 

“Yep, since we in the same place, at least we had a circle of friends that understand”

Mariam pull Amin hand and clutch his arm. 

“Hey Amin, do you feel jealous?” 

“Huh, uh…no….I…okay….its Alex…..but I never knew that you know him”

“Huh..if Nat keep ranting about him everyday of course I will remember from how he look, how he talk and many more”

What! What did Natalie share with her, I wonder how deep did she share, I’m sure she did not share that! That really making me embarrassed. I wonder what else she is trying to say.

“Would you be my friend?” 

“Yeah”

“Cool, homeboy”

We did a fist pump. And Mariam smile. I really wanted to sent a message to Natalie but what the heck, this is a good start. 

“So, where do you hang out during lunch?”

“The podium looking after my little sister”

“Then me and Amin will hangout there as well, Right Babe?” 

“Ah..yeah will, at least got to hangout with Alex”

“Mariam, I wanted to sent you back to home, okay?” 

“Right on Babe, see ya!!”

Mariam and Amin walk back out of school. Me and Hana waited for Mom back from office. 

“Honk!! Honk!!”

“That’s Mom, come on lets go Hana”

“Got it Big Brother!!” 

We return to our prison, our home which is dad is there waiting for us. Another annoying day for me. Mom ask me to carry Sam from the car seat, Dad looking at Mom and looks like they are arguing again. What is going on right now? I took out Sam, Hana and head towards the neighbour house. Dad shouted at me 

“Where are going?!! Bringing all of them outside”

“Well if you want to shout at all of us, in the first thing you arrive here, I rather bring them to me”

I walk off, while Mom continuing arguing with Dad. I reach the neighbour house since its almost asar, I beg her to teach us Quran while waiting for my parent done with what are they doing. I’m not letting them listening to Mom and Dad arguing. But I’m also worried as well, after I have done my Quran class. I ask the teacher to let them stay with her while I’m going back home to see them. 

Just as I’m arrive, I heard a loud noise inside. I’m instantly entered the house and saw Dad hitting Mom. Mom is laying down in pain. That fucker!! I lost it and started beating my dad. I punch his face and he flew off, slammed at the drawer. 

“Fucker!! Is that all what you think treating Mom like a punching bag!!” 

“Alex stop it!!” 

“That’s it Mom!! This man is the reason Mom like this!! Get the hell out fucker!!” 

“Is this what you teach him!!”

“Stop it Man!!” 

I punch him again, my sight just set at that fool of a man that beat Mom. I did not care anymore, all I know that this asshole is not part of my family. First trying to make me like him! Then taking control of Mom and now this. 

“I don’t care if you want to beat me, if you touch Mom, Hana and Sam like this”

I shoved my middle finger at him and kick him. 

“Get out from this house!!” 

I lost it, my anger took control and lucky that Hana and Sam is at the neighbours house. Mom however is scared at me. She suddenly slap me.

“Is that how you treat you father!!”  

You are reading story A boring life at school, or maybe… at novel35.com

I felt that sharp feeling from Mom’s hand. But I couldn’t help, there is no way I could just stand there looking at Mom beaten like that. From that day, he is not my dad but just another asshole that trying to rip my family apart. Mom tried to console Dad, why Mom!? Dad pushes her away, I instantly kick to his body.

“Asshole!!!” 

“Stop it Alex!!” 

“Come on Man, let me treat your wound” 

Dad and Mom gone upstair. 

“Clean this up Alex, please…”

“Fine…”

I clean up the living room, and throw all the broken stuff into the bin. Then I pick up Hana and Sam. The teacher ask me what have happen. I lied to her. 

“Nothing just that Dad fell down from the drawer and accidentally hurt himself” 

“Well then, but if there anything happen again, just come to this house” 

“Thank you and sorry to burden you teacher” 

I carried Sam, and Hana. I hope that they did not hear that just now. I clean up Sam, and Hana. Mom went out from her room. She did not look at me, and begin to cook dinner.

“Alex…”

“Yeah Mom?” 

“Sorry…but I really had a glimmer of hope that Dad will change”

“I don’t want to hear that man’s name again”

“He is your father, that you must respect that”

“By letting you beaten down, that not how I see it” 

“Sometimes, a wife had to obey the husband even though how rough it is”

“No..no way…..I don’t want to accept, if Mom ask me to apologise him, there is no fucking way”

“That is not how us muslim act”

“I made a promise  Mom, that I’ll look after all of you”

“Alex when you grow up and had family please…don’t be like Dad”

“I plan not to..”

I had a feeling of regret right now. Bringing them back to Malaysia is a bad idea now. But I what I can do, I’m just 15 year old boy. Money… hah I had none, power nothing. Damn it, if I had superpowers I just flies off and bring mom, Hana and Sam back to the States. Mom brought food to that asshole. But I lost my appetite. Hana and Sam is eating right now. I waited for them finish their dinner. Hana suggest to me.

“Big brother, let us stay together in your room”

“Okay”

“Yay!” 

I brought Hana and Sam in my little room and setup the bed, Hana and Sam sleeps in my bed and  I sleep on the floor. It is small but I felt safer and secured looking after them. I heard a door have been open. I lock this room making sure no one entered this tiny paradise of mine. I open my computer and begin writing my journal there. There is no wifi so had to wait until dad leave home or I had to go to a cyber cafe. I’m really sleepy now. Gotta sleep.

Chapter 5 - the fine line between being stupid and crazy

Saturday, it is morning. Yesterday was another boring day although I gain new friends to hang around in the podium during lunch. Amin is actually have a talent in music instrument. Maybe that is the reason Mariam is drawn to him. Hana is looking after Sam, Mom ask me to clear some trash in the storage room. 

Tonight is the orientation day in school, I wonder what that will be. While cleaning the storage room, I see a box written by Mom ‘old pictures’ I wonder what that will be. Ugh…that pics when mom was young. Until marriage, never realise that mom and dad was that long. I wonder what happen? But the funny thing is this picture of late grandma and granddad from Long Pasia. I was kid at that time, I see myself with my cousin, that is Clark, Jerome, Salva, Miranda, and another girl that’s not my cousin, who is this girl? Another picture that we are close to the point of holding hand. It is quite nostalgic feelings but I remember something deep within myself. 

“Come on Alex!!” 

“I don’t have much time left, because father told I had a sickness that could not be cured”

“Frederica…yeah that’s her name…”

Now I remember, she died of a brain tumour. Yeah..because the village is deep within the jungles. It's inaccessible. Mom is an anthropologist like Mr Hawk, doing research in her own village for development in the area. I remember that we stayed there for at least 1-2 years. Then I check again, yeah I was born there in Long Pasia. Now I remember, but I remember my dad was not comfortable living there. Slowly I took any rotten stuff and trash behind. Hey I found my old toys, maybe I could give to Sam and Hana to play with. Once I separated the stuff and trash I threw outside of the house. I met Zuan and his friend offer me to join his afternoon activity but because I had an orientation tonight I can’t join. I forgot Zuan ask me which school I have join and I answer to him.

“I went to Borneo College…”

Zuan and his friend look at each other with a scared look in their faces. I wonder why. 

“That damn elite school is something that most other schools feared. They really different compared to other school in Sabah”

“Really?” 

“Yeah!! Because a lot of student quits during their 1st years there”

“Hmmm…I wonder….” 

“but it is also one of the best school in Asia” 

“Don’t really care about that…”

“Why did you not join the All Boys School St Joseph? Is nearby” 

“I don’t know, my parents wanted it”

“Yeah every parent wanted to be there but once they found out, they just quit” 

“My dad really wanted me to be there because my uncle was once there” 

“Thats because each graduate have been enlisted with the government or any political party” 

“Don’t even really care, do you how bored I am in that school” 

“Yeah American style is totally different compare to Malaysia, I get it because I also studied in Canada before when I was young”

“But that’s elementary…” 

“Yeah but I could see it” 

“Sorry can’t join though really wanted to with Hana” 

“Yeah next time” 

They left and I return back home. Dad leave 1st thing in the morning saying that he had a meeting with the parliament members. I know that he is just went to the second wife, that asshole. I clean the toys and showed to Hana and Sam, they were excited and played with it.

“Yay!! LEGO and DUPLO” 

I played with them until evening. Me and Hana preparing to wear our orientation attire. Mom sent us there. When I reach at the entrance, Dad and his second wife waited for us. I ask Hana to ignored them, Hana look sad to see Dad. 

“Why Dad is with another woman?” 

 I still remember that when beat mom, in front of Hana when she is only a year old. I tried to distract her. Once reach the entrance the prefect look different as if we are going through some ritual. 

“The common class is here”

“This is my sister”

I give him my gangster look at the prefect, he look scared 

“Is just that the tag is for the common class”

“Do I look I give a shit…” 

Mr Rahman meet me and brought Hana with him 

“Don’t worry Alex I’ll look after her, you go to the designated place”

Borneo theatre, a place where is famous for giving birth to famous performers in the country. During the common student performance, Mariam is there alongside Amin playing the flamenco while Mariam is doing the dance. Not bad Amin, I saw Hana together with her friends. Steward is with Sylvia. But I was bored, only Mariam and Amin performance give me interest. The others is the common class perform the traditional tribal performance is interesting how this dance perform. I wonder why the elite student haven’t perform. I started to get bored and I left the seat, the prefect ask me to sit, I push him aside and went to the toilet. In the toilet I heard a conversation between Elite student. 

“Vulgar performance from that scholar student and that guy playing guitar”

That is flamenco, a Spanish art idiot….

After the event I heard a commotion in the theatre. I slowly watch which I’m surprised why the common seat panicked. I slowly observed, and heard someone and I saw a water ballon. What the hell is this.

“Hurry up, the last event is about to start!” 

I approach them and ask them 

“Hey hurry up help me”

I punch them and kick the other knocking them out. I smell it, its sewer water. What the fuck!! My blood began to boil. I saw Dad and his second wife is sitting above the theatre. Then someone is announcing. 

“All of the common class please gather at the centre.” 

I observed them, it seems that they are going to hit them with this ballon. Amin and Mariam protecting Hana. 

“This ceremony to show the difference between you commoners and elites”. One of them threw the ballon. I saw a rock and I took some of it. One of the ballon tried to aim at my friends. I threw a rock at the guy and hit his head, bleeding to his head. One of the ballon is already at them. I block them. It hit me, it smell like shit. 

“Hey what are you doing there”

I did not said anything because I’m boiling right now, Steward and Sylvia could not bear to see it. My Dad was surprised to see this. 

“Hana close your eyes and ears”

“But big Brother…”

“Thats an order”

“Okay”

Hana close her ears.

“Is this what you call, entertainment, fucking boring…” 

“Hey!! this is the school traditions”

The guy from the stage is like the leader of the elite group. I give him a middle finger, and showed them something. I open my shirt and showed my body filled with scars. Everyone is surprised. 

“This is come from a 9mm bullet when fighting against LA gangs alongside my friend. This scar is a knife wound that I had a fight with boys in LA, this is a stab wound on my neck is with a pen while fighting against kid who think that they are better skin than me. So tell me now, what kind nonsense is this, if you hate them. Why not killed them, why not shoot them? Huh… “

The others went quiet, and one of them stand and said to me.

“This is teach them the difference between us and them”

“Asshole, do know how painful a gun shot is?” 

“No…”

“You’ll piss your pants”

“What…”

“This back scar came from someone from my family hitting me with a leather belt….” 

They were shocked to see my body filled with scars 

“You like doing this, this stupid traditions?” 

“No wonder people around the world treated us like barbarians, uncivilised”

“Hey, who do you think you are?” 

“I don’t know, how about you?” 

“Forget it he is a traitor like them!!” 

I threw a rock at the guy that wanted to throw the ballon it hit his shoulder. He shouted in agony. Good thing that learn to pitch in baseball. The look at the parents and the elites had scared look in them. Terrified looking at me. I showed them my latest scar. 

“This scar is a knife wound, that tried to kill someone I loved” 

“This is a system to teach them reality”

“Then I’m going to show you the real world how its look like when they retaliate…” 

I threw a rock at the leaders and Dad. I stand at the stage and threw the leader out of the stage. I took the mic. A loud commotion among the elites shouting at me and I took a breath. 

“JUST SHUT UP!!!! AND LISTEN!!!!” 

The ringing sound of the speak vibrates through the theatre. 

“I’m been observing this school and….” I gave a thumbs down “the worst school ever…the lousiest teacher, no imagination, don’t see kids as future prospect… that what I learn in this school” 

The teachers is angry at me, and began blasted at me

“You are a model student!! How could you do this!!” 

“Really how about this?” I showed them and threw the shitty water ballon at them. 

“That smell right? That taste….like shit” 

“You know school had to be paradise for kids you know not hell, it is the only time that all of us enjoy before we face the real world…” 

“SO…. ACT LIKE A TEACHER FOR ONCE!!!!” I threw the mic on the floor, and walk off down from the stage. 

I saw Mr Rahman was not surprised and I said to him “transfer me!! Or change me to other school or whatever that you could think off” 

I walkout and ask Hana to join me. Mr Rahman said to me “thanks…” huh what the… why does he said thanks to me. The elites and their parents hurried back in their cars and left, Dad and his second wife were terrified to see me. Typical… Mariam and Amin meet me including Sylvia and Steward. I wash my self from the sewer waters that hit me. Mom’s gonna kill me. While bathing in the water outside of the theatre. Someone give thanks to me, a parents from the common class 

“I’m sorry that you to stand-up to protect my child” he bowed at me.

“I did nothing, I just felt what I want to say, that’s all” 

“No son, no one is brave enough to stand up like that…” 

“Its nothing better go home, and enjoy the weekend…” 

They left. And continued parents after parents. I getting annoyed but I understand their feelings. My friends waited for me, Mariam said first

“Not even LA street gangster got balls enough to said that”

“That’s because they just shoot at them” 

“Yeah, but you got balls I give you that”

Amin look at me not scared but inspired 

“Yo, that is cool man, like a hero” 

“What the hell are you talking about?” 

“Beside what are you going to do now…” 

“If Big brother is not in this school, I’m going to follow him, and take Mom and Sam away”

“No wonder Nat fallen for you…” 

Huh!? I look at her in disgust and wanted to tell her that’s bullshit but I could not because my blood is still boiling. 

“Alex…”

“Now you know me, you better get away from me…”

“She suddenly kiss me at the cheeks” 

“That is my knight” 

“Huh!! What the hell bitch” 

Steward said to me and look at my scar

“You look like a soldier experience in battle…” 

“Big Brother is a soldier protecting us and Mom” 

“You know that act is something could expel you from school”

“Better than here, I guess” 

“Yeah, if you quit, I quit I will follow you”

“If she quit, I quit as well, there no way I want to stay here”

“Guys…” we gathered like friends but an awkward friendship or so to say. The commotion have cooled down, Amin dad arrived and introduce himself 

“Salam, Im Faruq, Amin’s Dad, so Amin where to?” 

“Could I bring Mariam with me because her house is close-by our quarters”

“Yeah…Mariam, just call me dad okay”

“Okay dad”

“Hey dad!! That’s embarrassing” 

“Alex you want me to sent you?” 

“Nope I will wait with my friend, her dad have not yet picked them up” 

“Okay we all wait here, for everyone to leave is already midnight, is dangerous to be alone here” 

Amin explain what have happen and his dad reacted unexpected than what I expected because he is a policeman. 

“Hahahahahahaha, that’s being a man, when are you going to become like him? Amin ? when it time to protect Mariam huh?” 

“Yeah babe, when?” 

Amin is stuck in between and I pushed him 

“Dude you got something that no other virgins got” 

“That because you are not a virgin!!” 

Sylvia eyes gaze at me and ask me

“What do you mean not a virgin?” 

Marian devilish smile and whispered at Sylvia, her face suddenly turn dark like a yandere character. 

“Oh…he did huh…” 

“Hey, Mariam, what the hell are you doing?” 

“I will book a hotel tonight…”

“What!!? Uncle Faruq are you gonna let this go!!?”

“This is between man and woman and you must face it like a man”

“Some policeman you are!!” 

Hana instantly pull Sylvia’s hair 

“Don’t you put your filthy hand at Big Brother!! Big sis is already with him!!” 

“What a nice story I could share with Nat”

“Don’t you create another misunderstanding!!” 

Sylvia’s dad is here and said to me “thanks kid to look after them” 

Sylvia’s dad is also with the police but he is involved with commercial crimes. After everyone left Mom arrived, I just hope no one tell her about this commotion. Mom ask me about the orientation, I lied to her and Hana also lied to her in a good way. 

Once we arrived, Mr Rahman is waited for us at our home. Dad wasn’t home though maybe could not accept that incident just now. Mr Rahman ask mom for me to meet him privately. After, Mom prepare ‘teh tarik’ for us. Mr Rahman and me is outside of the house. 

“This is a nice drink…”

“Proud of it…” 

“You really care for them eh? I wonder what Man is thinking…”

“Really…like I care about it”

Mr Rahman is enjoying the drink. It is a foggy night, kinda eerie for a late night drink. Mr Rahman show me something a document, its list of student including their profile. 

“What the heck is this?” 

“This is a list of student from the former elite class that never wanted to be in school. If you think that bullying between common class but this is also between elites as well.”

“Well? What the hell am I suppose to do?” 

“As promise, I will transfer you to the class that you went before but just to inform you that class is the worst of the worst.” 

“But I thought that I will be expel?” 

“Well, after the event the principal and the chairman decide that not expel you fearing that you will spread news to others parties and the police as well, you already had friends with the police right?” 

“So what?” 

“Like I said, the reason I agreed to your father’s request to attend this school is because you are special, in your previous school you have also had some incident like this which is even worst” 

He showed me my own profile that is come from my old…school?!! How the hell he had that? Now I’m curious. 

“i also had friend in the states. You not the only one” 

Now I getting tired of this surprise and so called small world things. Anymore of this, I’m going to bed and sleep for the whole month. 

“Unfortunately because of your action, you have been suspended for 1 week from entering the school”

 That is good for me though. But I kinda bored for a week. Maybe I should try to look after Sam. If Mom going to work. What else Mr Rahman going to surprise me again? 

“But that does not mean you have free time, since your stunts just give me an extra work, so I wanted you to be part of it”

“Huh!?” What part of that work does Mr Rahman wanted me?

“You are going to help me find this student that always skip class for me and let them join back to school to your class” 

That slinky bastard….that was your plan is it!! Looks like that stunts that I did is within his expectation as well!!? Now what else he wanted to add more to this?

“After 1 week of the your suspension, you will return to your school got it?” 

“Fine…”

“Are you agreed or not? Or else go find another school then…” 

“I said fine!! Damn old man!!” 

He left the documents and he left.

“One thing that I left to wonder, why not stay in the States?” 

He suddenly ask this question, a very rhetoric question. This asshole

“Depends on your question though but…maybe there is reason I’m here…” 

“Very well I will go with your answer, when you already found it, please answered it properly” 

He left my home. I went to bed but, I’m smelly now. Mom called me to clean the my shirt, while I drop my uniform, I took out something from my pocket. Its a girls panties!? Who in the hell, lace and black? Kinda erotic. What the hell? Then I see a note from it 

~hey Alex, I heard from Mariam, that you just broke-up with your girlfriend last month. So as a cheer-up gift for being my knight here is your reward~ 

Love Sylvia ❤️

This is fresh from her!! What the fuck!? I’m not that perverted….. but suddenly I had a strong chill behind my neck that Natalie is going to kill me… but what do you mean broke-up?!
