ALL ABOUT REVENGE

New Students

The next day, Xena enrolls in Bangun Jaya High School. The place where his sister went to school. He chose the place because he wanted to remember the footsteps of his brother.

Without any tests and without any conditions, Xena was immediately accepted into that school. How not, the School that stood in that place, gained enormous support from Wijaya.

At first, Xena did not want to be accepted without going through the test line. But Wijaya forced him not to dispute what his orders were. Xena half-heartedly agreed to Vijaya's decision. After all, he was eager to attend that school.

" In that case, Dik Xena besuk can immediately go to school. Incidentally, besuk is the first day of entry into school. Come early if you want to get the chair you want." said the Principal.

" Good, sir." said Xena.

" I ask permission first. I have a meeting between Principals throughout the City, Mr. Wijaya."

" Well, then, I'd like to excuse you. I want to take my Princess around the city." said Wijaya.

" Please, Mr. Wijaya. Have a nice trip." said the principal.

...----------------...

A week later, the school reopened. Tama and Xena occupy the same class. But they have not known each other. Tama, who is quiet at school, just sits alone on her stool when the lesson has not yet begun. Unlike Xena who is very friendly. Xena was in the crowd of many of her friends. Almost all of his girl and boy friends were fixed on him. Xena, who is very beautiful, became the center of attention. Not only girls like it. But the boys also admired him a lot.

Then, while Xena was telling a story. His eyes were fixed on Tama who was busy alone reading a book in the back corner of the classroom. He looked at her without blinking. Unknowingly, the story comes to a halt when he cannot turn his attention to Tama.

All of his friends were silent and also looked towards Tama.

" Ahemm.." One of the girlfriends, cleared his throat.

" Ehhh." said Xena surprised.

" Cieee.." said everyone.

" What are you guys?" ask Xena pretending not to know.

" Xena, do you like her?" ask a guy friend.

" Ahh.where is possible.. I just saw him for the first time. I haven't met him either."

" In that case, I'll send him here" said another coolest boy friend in class.

" Eh.don't.. No need." said Xena.

But ignoring Xena's words, he called Tama in a disdainful tone. He also called Tama the Monkey.

But Tama ignored the call of Jody, the coolest kid in her class. Just making Jody rise in blood. He felt ashamed of all his friends because Tama did not move a bit or look at him.

With a reddened face, Jody jumped on the table and walked past her friend's tables and approached Tama. Xena was surprised and shouted to Jody.

" Jody.don't.." cried Xena.

Jody pulled the collar of Tama's shirt quickly. Makes Tama surprised. But he tried to stay calm.

" Ba!!! How dare you ignore me!!!" scream Jody.

The other friends could only huddle together without doing anything. They could only see Jody tugging at Tama's collar. Not because they are afraid of Jody, but they are also upset with Tama who does not get along with her friends.

Xena feels sorry for Tama, she runs and tries to stop Jody.

" i'm Xena.. Let me teach him a lesson. He may ignore you and ignore me. I don't accept. Who would dare that to us.."

" Jody. Poor him, he's not wrong. Maybe he doesn't want to be disturbed anymore. Let her go." pinta Xena.

" At least I want to make him a deterrent. Xena if you don't dare see me hit him, you better get out first."

" No, Jody. Let her go." ask Xena again.

" I can't. I had to teach him a lesson." said Jody then immediately, he clasped his right hand and intended to punch a punch towards Tama's face.

Jody prepares to hit Tama, but Xena fends off Jody's punch.

" Aduhh.." - groaned Xena.

" Xena.ah, I'm sorry." said Jody feeling guilty.

" Jody, I told you not to. But you did. He's not wrong. Let it go if he doesn't respond to you. Not everyone is the same. So don't equate him with the others."

" Alright, Xena. But you're okay, right?"

" No, it only hurts for a moment. It will also heal." said Xena while holding her hand.

" It's all because of you!" jody said to Tama, holding his index finger in front of Tama's eyes.

But Tama did not budge in the least. He had no idea what was happening in front of him. As if there was nothing. His mind remained calm and focused on the book he was reading.

" Babhhhh!" jody said, then returned to his seat.

Xena sat down next to Tama. He tries to get close to Tama and get her acquainted.

" Your name is Tama, right?" ask Xena.

Tama looked towards Xena coldly. He looked at Xena's face. But he didn't answer what Xena was asking. This makes Xena's heart beat fast. Instantly his face flushed. Not out of anger, not out of annoyance. He doesn't know what he's feeling. It was as if he met a figure who would be very meaningful in his life later.

Meanwhile, Jody who saw Xena and Tama looking at each other, immediately took a stance. He took off his shoes and threw them at Tama.

" Plaaakkk.." Jody's shoes drifted towards Tama. But not on target.

Jody felt annoyed and went back to Tama and Xena.

" Xena.Why are you so close to her?! You know he's arrogant. What's wrong with you?" said Jody.

" Jodie.. You better get back to your seat! You know what you've done? You can hurt Tama too me! Do you want me to hook up with my Papa?" said Xena.

Hearing Xena's words, Jody became frightened. He knew Xena's parents were powerful and evil. He did not want to be a victim of the violence of Wijaya. He nodded his head and returned to his seat.

Tama smiled looking at the tiger-like Jody who lost her fangs. Unknowingly, Xena continued to observe him.

" Why are you smiling? Funny?" ask Xena.

" Hhh.no. There's nothing. Already, forget it." said Tama then closed the book she read and put it in a bag.

" Where are you going? I'm not done talking." asked Xena.

" Next time. I'm going home. Oh yes, you should also go home." said Tama and just left her seat.

" Yama!! Uhh.. What are you, suddenly coming home?" shout Xena.

All her friends lead to Tama walking out of the classroom. Soon, Xena gets a lot of questions from her friends.

" Xena..it looks like you started having a taste at the first meeting, huh? Haha.. Say one of my girlfriends.

" Xena, why did that cool-ass go away? There was a beautiful angel who approached him. Guys go!" say another girl friend.

But Xena was silent. He didn't want Tama to be a mockery. He knows Tama's a good man. He is not a proud person either. Xena returned to her seat and took the bag and left the classroom.

" Where are you going, Xena?" asked a middle-aged man behind Xena.

Xena was shocked and turned her body. That man is Papa Xena. He also walked to his father.

" Papa.why is it here?" ask Xena.

" Papa asked, where are you going?"

" Want to go home, Pa."

" Well, this is just the first hour of class. Then why do you want to go home?"

" Eh Xena doesn't know, Pa. But no teacher came. The next class also seems like there is no teacher on duty. The noise got here, didn't it."

" Hemm.. What's up. Papa was curious. Yes, Papa would like to ask the Headmaster."

" Good, Pa."

Xena continued her steps. He walked half-run while looking for Tama. But at the school exit he did not find Tama's whereabouts.

" Where is the boy. Did he get on the bus? If he gets on the bike, he should be in the parking lot. But he didn't go to the parking lot. Where he went, so fast." muttered Xena.

While Xena was pensive, the school security guard greeted Xena.

" Sir.what's the matter, why daydream?"

" Uh..Satpam Sir. There's nothing, sir. Oh yeah, is it true today there are no lesson hours?"

" Hemm.seems like nothing, Sister, the husband of one of the teachers here died. So it looks like the Masters will be going takziyah this morning. It is likely that the Teachers will also follow the funeral ceremony until it is finished. But you don't know. I only heard from the conversation of the two Masters while in front of the gate this morning."

"Oh.so so, sir. Then thank you. I will wait for the Principal's decision." said Xena.

Then Xena left the Guard post and met Wijaya in the Principal's Room. When he arrived in front of the room, he saw Wijaya talking to the Headmaster. He doesn't want to disturb them. He decided to wait outside.

Before long, his mind returned to Tama. He was very curious about Tama. That quiet and very cold nature should not exist in Tama. But in reality, when Jody almost hit him, Tama could only keep quiet. If you weren't quiet and brave, maybe I'd really like you Tama. Looks like you're an interesting person." murmured Xena inwardly.
