Hope Becomes Reality

Episode 21: The privilege of schoolmates

"Whatever you say." Ardi then took the paper and signed the agreement.

"Stop!" Said a teacher dismissing Ardi who was signing the agreement.

She is an old woman who has worked as a teacher, she has long taught in the private school where Ardi school, she always looked down on poor children and adored rich children. In fact, he did not care about the value of the poor child and made it below average, it was fortunate that the teacher did not teach in Ardi's classroom.

"If you don't manage to sit in that special place, you'll be expelled from school." The teacher said with a serious look, he did not want to play around anymore and wanted to get rid of this great braggart.

All the students/i who heard that started to get excited and immediately agreed with the old teacher's statement.

"It looks like this will be the end for the poor lousy boy."

"Yes, he won't be able to do anything right now."

"Huft, what a pity for his fate."

Everyone started sneering at each other and started to feel disgusted with Ardi.

"Whatever you say." Ardi said casually and immediately went on to sign the agreement.

Ardi actually did not care at all about the old teacher, even whatever the old teacher felt towards him he did not care.

After signing the letter, he immediately walked towards the special place that had been provided, he left while carrying an invitation letter given by Bimo.

"Unfortunately, her self-confidence made her a swampy human being."

All began to sneer back and noticed Ardi who had already arrived at that place, they all looked at him still with disgusted expressions on their faces.

They thought that Ardi would be expelled and humiliated. Unknowingly, Ardi was already sitting in that special chair with the other important people, those who saw him could only gape in disbelief, poor people from the countryside can occupy special seats and even chat casually with important people, which is an impossibility. But what can I do, it's all happened.

They start thinking about the bets they do, they spend quite a lot of money on these bets, and they can only let their lost money be taken by the poor rural kid, he said, one school that ranges almost 1000 people do the betting for this, you can imagine how much money Ardi makes.

While Rifki also still does not believe, but fortunately he does not make bets to Ardi, just like other poor children, they also do not make bets and just watch it, students/I who did not take the bet was only less than 50 people.

On the other hand, at a time when his friends are worried about their money Ardi laughs while joking with Brodi, Billy and other important people.

"By the way, how did you come here?" Asked Ardi to Brodi and Billy, he was eager to question this to them from earlier, just waiting for the right time.

"As you know, we have an invitation from the Willbord family to attend this party, and by chance we meet, what are you doing here?" Brodi said and reversed the question he also wanted to ask.

"You know, the stuff I asked you for was the one for my best friend's gift? That's why I'm here, he's having his party here."

The people around them do not believe in the familiarity of Ardi and Brodi, even though Ardi is a poor child from the countryside, visible from the way he dresses, but not with Billy, he said, he is just as respectful as Brodi because he knows the truth.

Everyone who heard their conversation at a glance could not believe that Ardi had once told Brodi and ‘a’ Brodi to submit to this rural youngster.

One of the people who was right next to Brodi whispered and asked about Ardi, he and the others were even very curious about his identity.

Everyone looked at his expression and asked him again, all back surprised and starting stiff as he was.

"Here you go, relax and keep it a secret, consider me a poor country man." Ardi of course understood their attitude, he also had to keep his identity a secret to the others.

Everyone who heard that began to understand every word, they returned to chatting like before, but now that there was still a little awkwardness between them, how could it not be awkward?

A few minutes later, Ardi wanted to end his conversation with them, he was eager to see the expressions of his friend's faces, and he also wanted to take advantage of his gamble. But he thought twice and decided to wait for Mr. Willbord's direct info on this party first.

Shortly after, just as he expected, the sound of the microphone rang again,

"Test 1, well everyone, thank you for coming to my son's birthday party."

All of the invitations started to get serious and the voice had now become silent after hearing an information, but the invitation Bimo had invited earlier started to heat up and started to become noisy, but, it was a crowd of schoolmates as well as teachers from the Bimo and Ardi schools.

"What's? Mr Willbord's son?"

"Is it possible that Bimo was the son of Lord Willbord."

"No, it's impossible, I don't believe."

All began to speculate and assume Bimo was the son of Mr. Willbord, after all, he had invited them all, but of course there were most people who still did not believe.

Mr. Willbord's son is still a mystery, the Willbord family always kept the identity of his son secret to keep the heir, almost the same as the Liken family concept. The difference is, the Willbord family only had a son to inherit his wealth while the Liken family had a daughter and son, although the inheritance was for his son only.

"Uhhh, I can finally see the son of Mr. Willbord."

"Yes, I'm lucky to be here now."

"It's true that I'd even like to marry her one day."

Everyone invited at the back also started to get excited, after all this was a golden opportunity for all of them.

In fact, there were girls who wanted to marry this Lord Willbord's Son, who they knew that he was still the same age as all of them.

"Okay, please calm down and listen."

It all went quiet again.

"My son will come to the front of the stage and will cut his birthday cake just like any other birthday party, but after that event, we will feature some top artists and singers to entertain you all, at the end of the event there will be a DJ who enliven this event until 5 am." Mr. Willbord explained everything about this party, and everyone listening to it started to get excited.
