Ela went to school today, she got sick yesterday.
The girl was still pouting, making me frown, was she still sick? Normally Ela's been greeting me this morning.
"How are you doing?" I asked while sticking my palm on the eel, then Ela shook her head, facing me.
"Huwaaa, Dor-Dor, Shiro is dead!"
"Huh?" I'm appalled. Yesterday I met Shiro and he was fine. How come? "Seriously Shiro died?"
Ela nodded weakly. "Ela wanted to show Shiro to Dor-Dor, but he died because of Kuro."
Jidatku. Thinks. So what is Ela talking about now? After thinking for a few seconds, I remember Ela once saying that she had a cat named Shiro.
I stroked Ela's shoulder, trying to calm her down. "Why did he get to die?"
"Hiks ...." Ela cried even more, it seems like I asked the wrong question. "Shiro died because of Shiro's dog. Kuro bit Shiro's neck."
I scratched the side of the eel. Thinking for a moment. She spoke too quickly and I needed to understand her words. I spelled out Ela's sentence slowly .. tapped her who rubbed both her cheeks with the back of her hand.
"So, your cat died because of Kuro? And Kuro is Shiro's dog?"
Ela nodded.
"Ela had told Sister Shiro to have Kuro tied up even though she was in the cage, but Kak Shiro did not hear Ela. Huwaaa... So Shiro died, right?" Ela folded her hands on the table and buried her face there. Crying sobbing.
Is Ela's cat the same name as her sister? I smiled faintly, there's no way, isn't it, her sister Ela is the Shiro I know?
"Dad!"
All eyes were fixed towards the entrance-gaze at the handsome man heading towards Ela.
"Here, your book is missing" Shiro said as he hit Ela's head still on the table.
Ha, Seriously?
"Hi, Rin."
I only nodded back softly as Shiro greeted me. Looking up at him.
I still can't believe it. The Shiro that Ela meant was her? Are they serious brothers? In school, they don't look like that.
But, if you look at it for a long time, they are a bit similar too, anyway.
"But he says he doesn't cry anymore?" shiro said as he rubbed Ela's head. "Later after school Ela's older sister to the pet store deh, same Dorin too."
I was surprised to point at myself. Why was my name brought up too? Their likeness is when deciding something without my consent.
Shiro gave a pleading gesture, I was forced to nod.
Ela's head stood up. "Is Dor-Dor really?" His face immediately turned cheerful.
I nodded again.

"Is Nora okay?" ela asked looking towards the seat of the girl. Perhaps Ela also felt Nora's more reserved attitude than before. Though Ela was still sad, but her exclusion made me salute her.
Since that incident, Nora has never discussed it. I didn't comment much either, waiting for him to speak first. And neither did Ela know exactly what was going on, that I knew Nora and Friska were sisters, though not blood. Surely he would be excited if he found out, maybe Nora considered that too.
"I'd like to talk to you guys after the break." Suddenly Nora came to our table.
When the bell rang and all the children were out of the classroom. Nora approached our table and told us about the problem. Why does Friska hate her so much.
Nora told me that her mother worked as a maid in Friska's house, for about five years. Because of Mother Nora's widowed stasus and the widowed owner of the house who has been widowed for three years, the attraction just appeared. Eventually they got married despite the rejection from Friska before.
Friska vents her anger at Nora. Treat him harshly. Though they used to be quite good friends, even though Nora was his auxiliary child.
Their parents finally got married, a year ago, and it was during that one year that she was mistreated by Friska. Nora was threatened not to report anything to Papa or to her mother.
"That can't be allowed!" ela commented with a pouting face, even looking willing to cry.
Nora shook her head. "I want to tell you this because we're best friends. I don't want you guys to misunderstand, so ... Friska did it all out of reason."
"The reason for venting his anger is the same as yours?" I fold my hands in front of my chest. "So you just let it go?"
"It's my fault." Nora lowered.
I scrunched up jidat. "How did it become your fault?"
"Had I forbade my mother not to marry Om Frans ...." Nora bit her lips, "this is not going to happen. I told you to find your own happiness, hiks ...." Nora cried while shedding tears.
"What's going on?"
I'm curious. Nora's head was ducking down her chest, her hands occasionally rubbing her wet nose.
"Mom trusts Friska more than I do. Mother-" Nora shook her head, she was unable to continue her words. I think those words were stuck in her throat. Painful words to say?
...***...
"Huh."
I sighed to find an annoying figure in front of me. Throwing her face back at him.
The guy gave the codes to his two friends.
"What are you guys doing?" I asked the two people who were already on either side of me-locking my movements, then dragged me forcibly-carrying me near the back shed of the school.
"Give it!"
"What do you mean?" I stared at Devin with a sharp look. How dare the girls. Yeah, I think he's a sissy!
Devin came closer, but my body couldn't back down because these two fucking guys were holding my arm.
"Damn it! Get your hands off me!" I thrashed as Devin's hand started to touch my skirt pocket.
I could have kicked him in the face. But today in a hurry, I forgot to wear shot pants. And, I can't act rashly for now. Especially my opponent of three. Guys with tall bodies.
Devin got my phone.
"His password," he said fiddling with my phone. He also raised his face. "Hum, how about I just destroy this thing?" He shakes my phone at his friend.
"Are you Friska's men?" ask me in the usual tone. If not him, who else? Because I have evidence of Mak Lampir's crimes.
