Aretta & Secrets

Fainted

It took me 10 minutes to get up from the floor. I've been getting punches from Mama a lot and it turns out that blows from men are completely different. Just one blow made it hard for me to move. This blow left me in pain and unable to move for a while.

I did say that I would dare to accept the consequences, but I really did not expect that the consequences would be this severe. I left the rest of my salad strewn on the floor. He told me to leave immediately and just assume that I did because I obeyed his orders.

I didn't notice where my feet were going. I just have to keep walking away from the room Mr. God, still holding my stomach. At that time I saw Rendi and the man also saw me. Rendi ran quickly towards me.

"Lo why?" tanyakanya. I didn't know what happened next because my mind was wandering around and I couldn't hear what he was saying. When my mind was back, Rendi was taking me to sit on one of the park benches, "why can I think of it?" he asked again for an explanation.

"Gue fell down," I said speaking as calmly as possible. And as I thought, he seemed to be distrustful of my words.

"So you don't want to tell me anything." He said it as if he knew I had no intention of opening my mouth. As expected, I am indeed not a person who is used to telling me everything that has happened to me. I avoided it because I didn't want to get a concerned look from them.

"Gue is fine. Really deh. Do you think I look so weak? Do you think I can't solve my own problems?" I said, "gue does not need a friend who thinks I am weak, if you are so you can go now. I've done worse things than this many times. I just need a friend who will help me to escape...." I fell silent as I used the word friend, "are we friends?" my many.

"Because I rarely talk to others and also I click lo, it means we're friends right." He answered and it made me smile. The pain in my stomach faded as the happy euphoria spread throughout my body. I can't believe I have a friend.

"Gue has never had a friend before" I murmured softly, hoping that Rendi would not hear what I said just now.

After making a friendship, Rendi and I started talking about each other. He said he doesn't have any friends because he's always busy practicing. And I told him why I don't have friends because I'm fat.

Rendi sighed tired as soon as she heard my story. He didn't think it out because it turned out that my old school friends were very bad. According to him, a person should not be judged just because his physique is different.

I chuckled, completely comforted and his presence also helped me a little to forget the incident earlier.

The lesson bell rang again, indicating the break was over. The next class will begin in 5 minutes. I immediately stood up and grimaced a little as the pain returned. I did not have time to enjoy the pain and quickly rushed to move to change clothes. The next class is a sports class and we have to gather on the field before the sport starts.

Our gym teacher turned out to be sick and the substitute teacher had not arrived either. The material this time is also still running. The warm-up hasn't started yet and the opportunity is used by children to joke and tell stories before class. Till...

"Good day everyone. Today I will replace Mr. Danu. Before you start to run, you can warm up first. And for the assessment will be done as usual. You will run and I will record your speed from here" said Mr. Aidan. Yes, his substitute teacher was him.

"But we started jogging. My legs are still stiff from running yesterday."

He nodded and we started warming up around the pitch. At first we were both silent and focused only on running, but it seems like Rendi could not stand if we had to keep quiet for a long time, because maybe he thinks there are many things that can be discussed together. He was already moving around uncomfortably and it made me chuckle.

"Because I'm new here, so I need some advice from you," I said suddenly and it managed to make Rendi's face turn bright, "you can't tell me what I can and what I can't do here."

"Let me think first" he said, "make the first you have to try the vending machine. There are drinks and there is food, so you don't have to wait in the cafeteria. Quiet the machine is almost in every corner of the school. You also have to try the soto meatballa canteen. That's the best. Joining the music club can also be," said Rendi.

"Keep doing what you can't do, you can't act suspicious around Mr. Aidan. He may seem calm but he is the most feared teacher. Mr. Aidan can know any problem child. He is a BK teacher who has full power in school after the principal.

"So the conclusion mending you follow me. I'll show you what you can and can't do here. But most importantly never act suspicious around Mr. Aidan" he recalled once again.

I nodded and started to keep the information, "Gue will always be taking you anywhere" I said as I ran away from him. The warm-up managed to restore my muscle flexibility.

"Three rounds!" I heard this screaming not far behind me.

The competition this time was quite tough and luckily I managed to reach the finish line a few seconds before Rendi. Unlike the previous run this time made my vision a little blurry. I shook my head slowly to dispel the darkness because I started to get distracted. Maybe because I didn't eat breakfast and I didn't eat, it made this darkness come. I shook my head slowly trying to get rid of them and to no avail.

My knees are starting to go weak. My eyelids twitch. And the world around me is spinning. I'm still trying to brace myself not to fall down at the moment. I don't want to look weak in front of the other kids. I don't want to embarrass myself just because of this. I'm used to it and it shouldn't have such a shaky effect on my body.

Rendi spoke, but I really couldn't hear anything she said. For a moment I grabbed her sleeve and rested on her. But it seems like my defense is losing.

The last thing I heard before the darkness swallowed me was the sound of Rendi screaming.

"Aretta! That's..."
