"Give a standing ovation to attendees from Musically International High School!…" exclaimed the MC echoed after Via's stunning performance.
"Well it's time to call our last participant. Senior High School Cadets of the Nation!…"Shouted MC in the sound of applause. "Staff of Taruna Bangsa High School?! where's the guy?" call MC for the second time.
"Maybe fear of losing will run away!" yell Via meredek.
"What the hell lo! don't try to do it!" snapped Hendra to Via.
"But brother!" berlyn shouted and went on stage. "Sorry we're late" Berlyn continued.
"Well, it doesn't matter if we start. Music!" shouted the MC with excitement.
Berlyn began to tell the philosophy of the clothes they made, while Erlyn walked on stage showing off her clothes like a professional model. All eyes were stunned by the beauty of the clothes Erlyn was wearing.
"Damn!!…Why would he get out anyway! I locked it in the warehouse!" Shouted Via in the heart.
"Give her a big applause!…"screaming MC after Berlyn finished his words.
"All the participants have shown off their clothes, now is the moment they are waiting for. There will only be 10 participants who will qualify for the next round. Who they are!! let's hear the results" exclaimed the MC with a frenzy.
The jury has named 10 participants who managed to escape. Of course, Berlyn and Erlyn were the most superior. Via stayed in second place. Before everyone could disperse, Berlyn stood in front of the microphone and stopped the noise.
"Sorry in advance for disturbing the pleasure of your friends. I'm here to convey the reason for our delay" Berlyn said.
"As can be seen, today Erlyn is our model. There was someone we wanted to lose this selection, and then lock Erlyn in the warehouse" Berlyn explained.
"Geez.so cute"
"Who did that? what one of the participants?"
Everyone was wondering who the person who was scheming against Erlyn was. Via simply went silent holding his hand to avoid shaking.
"And that man is him!" berlyn said as she pointed towards Via.
All eyes were on Via. Via simply fell silent by clenching both of his hands.
"Do you have any proof that I'm the one who framed Erlyn!" Shouted Via not wanting to lose.
"Udah Berlyn.Lo do not come from Via kayak. We also do not know who has been mocking me" said Erlyn slowly while pulling Berlyn's hand, but not ignored.
"Lo want proof? The evidence is already on all of you're HP" Berlyn said casually.
Cekling.cekling..cekling. Even the committee and the judges also got the notification. Via who saw the contents of the message started to show a restless expression.
"That's what happened. Via deliberately told people from outside to lie to Erlyn come to the warehouse. And you can see for yourself from the surveillance footage, Via locking the warehouse. Even throw the keys to the shed into the gutter. I just hope the committee can act decisively, so that there are no more victims because of his cunning" Berlyn said seriously.
The judges stared at each other, while Via remained silent and received slurs from everyone there. After Berlyn finished his statement, all participants were asked to disband. While Via is still being interrogated by the committee, inevitably Hendra also accompanied Via there. After nearly an hour of questioning, the jury has made a final decision. Via was eliminated from the race and returned at that time. Berlyn took Erlyn to the UKS to treat her injuries, until a moment later…
Ckling.sound notification from HP Erlyn.
"If you're curious, meet me at the park next to the gate right now!" said Via in his message which also attached a photo of Berlyn with a girl similar to Erlyn.
"Lho.inn me. But since when have I ever photographed Berlyn. And this...Berlyn still wears the SMP uniform?" erlyn murmured inwardly while furrowing her brows in confusion.
"Lo why?pain huh?" asked Berlyn who was applying the medicine on Erlyn's wound.
"Yesa I am sick" replied the spoiled Erlyn.
"Where else is it sick? Cepet you point!" berlyn exclaimed while looking around Erlyn's body.
"Gue has a stomachache.hehehe.Gue wants to go to WC first yes" Erlyn jokingly said so that she did not suspect that Erlyn was going to see Via.
"Yeah..gue guess why! yes, go there" said Berlyn while cleaning the medicine box.
"Wait for me at home.bye..bye" said Erlyn and ran out.

On the other hand, Via had been waiting on the park bench for a while. The sound of footsteps approaching him.
"What do you want to talk to me about?" asked Erlyn who was standing in front of Via.
"Don't have to beat Lo! if you want to talk directly!" erlyn was impatient.
"Heh..don't you think I'm eliminated you can dapetin Berlyn heart huh! Just so you know, you're just Berlyn's impingement" said Via bluffing Erlyn.
"You mean?" ask Erlyn again.
"Do you know who the girl in the photo is? She's Sella Berlyn's 'former!" exclaim Via by affirming the word 'former'.
It was as if Erlyn's heart had stopped for a moment.
"Sella.it's a name that is called Berlyn while ngiggau" Erlyn murmured in her heart. "Why indeed? he's also his ex!" cetus Erlyn did not want to look upset.
"Lo's still not realising? Although different, but your face can be said to be 80% similar. Lo think Berlyn who is always indifferent with anyone can be interested in the same person who looks like his ex?! Think dong lo, he just wants to vent his anger into lo!" exclamation Via to Erlyn. But Erlyn was still silently digesting the words that Via had spoken.
"Lo guess Berlyn is soft on Lo, same attention Lo. Do you think he likes you? Just so you know, he will only make you feel flying at the beginning. Then he'll throw you into the abyss. He hates your face, he knows you like him. Because of that too, he benefited you as an object of revenge to Sella" Shouted Via provoking Erlyn.
"Lo don't try to make my relationship with Berlyn worse!" Jerk Erlyn while pushing Via.
"Heh.if you don't believe. Try to express your feelings to him. I'm sure 100% he will not feel you" said Via who then left Erlyn.
"No way! there's no way Berlyn thinks like that" murmured Erlyn who was sitting on a park bench.
Days passed quickly.After Via was eliminated, Erlyn's journey became more smooth. Erlyn and Berlyn won that race, and are already back in school. In between his busy life, Erlyn often thought about the word Via. Erlyn decides to express her feelings to Berlyn.
"Lo sure you want to express your feelings to Berlyn?" sasha asked Erlyn.
"Yes, the cave is sure" Erlyn replied as she typed her task.
"Aren't you afraid to fall victim to Berlyn's 100th rejection?" sasha asked, reminding.
Erlyn stopped her activity, she stared at Sasha's eyes.
"Gue is 100% sure" Erlyn replied firmly.
"Yes, it's up to you. I just don't think about it, why do you want to hear the girl's talk. What is clear is that you know he is your love rival" said Sasha who had heard the story from Erlyn about Via.
"Yes precisely because of that, I'm more curious about the contents of Berlyn's heart. I don't want to just hear what people say, I want my own proof" Erlyn said with confidence.

"Where does it feel like living in the same house as the queen of the school?" ask Beni teasing Berlyn.
"It's normal" Berlyn answered briefly.
"Heleh.Mulut lo say ordinary. But every time Erlyn passed by there must be her own smiles" said Beni who then sat next to Berlyn.
"What the hell do you want!" berlyn's snapped which was already uncomfortable.
"Sorry bre.just relax" said Beni calming.
"Berryn!…in cariin chick class opposite tuh!" yelled one of Berlyn's classmates.
"OK.Gue's there!" yelled Berlyn who then walked out of class, followed Beni behind her.
"Oh my goodness.it turns out Erlyn's the real Berlyn!" yelled Beni teasing Berlyn.
"Diem lo!" cetus Berlyn to Beni. "What do I need?" ask Berlyn kindly.
"Gue wants to talk to Lo" said Erlyn nervously.
"What by the way?" ask Berlyn again.
"Don't come here, come with me!" erlyn said and walked ahead of Berlyn.
"Udah Lo follow" said Sasha pushing Berlyn's body.
"Yes Bro.. seems very important" said Beni added.
Berlyn started walking after Erlyn. From another corner of the hall, Meli and her friends saw Berlyn walking with Erlyn. Meli followed quietly where they were going.
