Je Te Protegerai

Chapter 1

Manhattan - New York

The morning sunlight entered between the curtains of the room of a girl who was still wrapped in a blanket. The clock also shows the time 8:15 am. The girl should have woken up, but she hadn't woken up yet. There was a knock on the door from the outside which turned out to be the maiden's maid.

Tok to tok.

"Miss. Miss wakes. It's morning, miss has to go to school. " Say the waiter loudly.

Tok to tok.

The girl groaned because her sleep was disturbed. The blanket finally opened and the girl sat with her eyes closed.

"I'm up. It's noisy! " Shouted the girl because the knocking didn't stop.

Afterwards, the girl went to the bathroom to get ready for her school. It didn't take long for the girl to walk in closet to get dressed. Once neat with just jeans and a white t-shirt with a jacket and also shoes. He came out of the room for breakfast.

There was already a waiter standing at the side of the dining table with breakfast served.

"Miss has to drink a lot of water, so that the effects last night disappear. " Say the waiter.

The girl knew what her servant meant last night. He even remembers drinking too much.

His eyes only stared intently at the servant who had been with him for more than 3 years. More like a big brother because of his older age than that girl. Not answering the servant's words yes, the girl continued to drink water that was already available. His eyes looked ahead. The dining table was so quiet. Only he eats at the dinner table every day. His eyes continued to observe the house he lived in. Only him, the waiter and the bodyguard were in front of the house.

He has lived in that house for almost 4 years. More like being banished from his own family. Since he was 13 years old, he has studied independently even though there are servants who are always there.

His heart has been so hard since he was 10 years old. Something that changed his life. His perspective has changed too. The family he had always dreamed of being happy and warm became bad and cold instantly.

There will be people who will pay for all the suffering of the blue-eyed girl later.

'Wait and see later' the inner girl with a sneer huh. That deep-rooted grudge and hatred is growing stronger and stronger. Her tongue was clenching as it left behind someone who meant a lot to her.

The plaintiff grabbed the bag as well as the car keys and rushed out without breakfast. The waiter simply exhaled as his master left without breakfast again. He knew that the girl was lonely.

'And abandoned'

***

The streets of New York have always been congested, it is indeed the most populous city in the United States. The girl leaned her head against the window. In front of him many cars were also hit by traffic jams. His eyes glanced back, the black car right behind him it was the bodyguard that always followed him. The girl was very upset because she was followed by people who always wore black clothes.

The girl's car entered the school parking lot. In the United States schools do not wear the same uniform. They are free to wear any clothes. The Dalton School is a school that accepts pupils with limited. There are only 1300 students. It is also the most expensive school in the world. Only the smart and rich can enter.

After parking, the girl got out of the car and walked to her class. Suddenly someone was embracing from behind the girl.

"Anastasias. You wake up at what time! " Shouted the girl's friend right in her ear.

Anastasia, the girl's name immediately took off her embrace and covered her puffy ears. Because the theme made the morning worse.

"You! Can't you not scream.! " Said Ana annoyed.

Her theme simply rolled her eyes and looked at Ana who was annoyed with an amused face.

Ana snorted because her friend liked to disturb her.

"Hey. Oi. Okay. I'm sorry. Are you still dizzy? "

"No."

"You really had too much to drink last night. I'm just getting overwhelmed. It's a good thing your bodyguard took you home. "

"Hm."

"Ana."

"... "

"lapsus. You heard. "

"... "

The girl remained silent and walked to her class. Evelyn simply breathed her breath. This was indeed not the first time that Evelyn had faced the cold Ana. Evelyn has known Ana since elementary school. She followed Ana to the United States and went to school in the same place. To Evelyn, Ana is her best friend. Even with her cold face and harsh words, Evelyn still loved him.

Evelyn smiled faintly as she said she would follow Ana to America. The girl showed that she did not like it, even at that time Ana said that she did not want to have a bully who always attached like a parasite to her. But Evelyn did not feel offended and hated. He will be on Ana's side.

"Basic! He always threw me down, but he always missed me. Oi! Anastacia! Waitme! "

***

Fortunately the class had not started yet, so the girl would not hear the nagging of the teacher who always lectured ya.

Walking towards her desk, the girl saw her desk filled with flowers and chocolates.

'Decorating'

Ana immediately brought all of it to the trash can outside the classroom. If other girls would probably be happy and excited. But Ana, that girl is another. He doesn't like everything romantic. He knew he was famous and many men always wanted to approach him. But before that happened, Ana had already stared intently at the man and said a harsh word. However, some people continue to give her flowers and chocolates.

"Always. Don't you feel outrageous? "

Ana turned her head and looked at Evelyn who was already in front huh.

"You want? Take 'em! "

After that Ana went straight into her class. Evelyn stared at the flowers and chocolates that had gone into the trash. Evelyn turned her head to look at Ana who was already sitting down and pulled out the book on her desk. His gaze was unreadable, between sorrow and pity.

If Ana saw that look of pity was on evelyn, then it was certain that evelyn would not be able to talk to Ana for a month. And it's excruciating.

Ana pulls out a book not to study, but to draw a sketch. Without even learning, Ana will be able to do the problem. But before his pencil touched the white paper, there was a rose blocking it.

Ana looked up to see who was stopping her from drawing. Thomas Davenport, most wanted with a smile that can make women bend their knees in front of him but not with Ana, the girl was fed up with a smile that for Ana is a bastard smile. Since 3 years ago, Thomas Davenport always bothers him. And that made Ana very uneasy. Because of Thomas, himself became the bullyan material of the school. But fortunately, the bodyguards that had always followed him could not make the girls who did not like him touch him.

Lazy to serve Thomas, Ana just silence and get rid of the roses.

"Ohhh what's your mood today bad again dear? "

Lookie! Thomas was even sitting facing Ana.

"Can you go? I'm sick of seeing you! "

Not angry, Thomas even laughed.

"Ohh so right. My favorite is badmood again? What makes you so mad at Honey? Tell me. I'll get rid of that guy. "

"You! "

"Huh? Oi. Don't be like that to me. You'll miss me if I leave. "

Ana did not respond to Thomas's words, but she wasted her time serving Thomas's pointless words.

"Hey bastard. Go there.! "

Thomas turned to look at evelyn who drove him away.

"Hey Evelyn, can't you see that I'm alone with your friend? You just interrupt. "

"Wahh.. What did you say? Bothering? It's you who's bothering Ana now. Go there, don't you have class too. And your class is not here Thomas Davenport. "

"Haish. You're such a bitch! " Pumpat Thomas before leaving his class with 3 friends who had been on the doorstep of the class.

Evelyn sat down at her desk and pulled out a book. If Ana was just drawing, Evelyn was really learning. Her brain is not like Ana who is not even thinking too hard has been able to do the problem. Evelyn had to study, even entering this school Evelyn died studying in order to be with Ana. For the cost, Evelyn's parents were rich, so it was no doubt. Only his brain is slightly squeezed in order to get in, because money isn't everything here. The brain must also be taken into account.

***

After three hours of racking the brain, finally at rest arrived.

"What do you want to eat today? " Evelyn was already in front of Ana who was cleaning up her book.

"Sandwich"

"Okay. I'll order it. You just sit in the usual place. Okay. "

Evelyn slid into the canteen and Ana also headed in the same direction. Ana was already sitting at the table that they used to eat. This school cafeteria is more like a cafe than any other school cafeteria. Ana also chose to sit next to a window that showed a large number of pedestrians.

Ana opens her phone to ask her about the person she missed so far.

Tut tuut tuut..

"Hallo."

"How's it going? "

Ana immediately asked unceremoniously with the person. That person was his confidant all this time who informed the state of his precious person.

There was quite a long pause for the confidant to answer. And this made Ana anxious.

"What's going on? "

"Actually, his health is on the decline. He was always delirious about saying your name. "

Suddenly Ana's face became sad. His eyes are glassy. Her voice was holding her phone tightly.

"Then? What did that man do, anyway,? "

"none. "

His eyes were closed withstanding the anger that could explode at any moment. That person, the one who ruined his life. The person Ana thought was the one who could protect her was precisely the one who hurt her.

'That's enough! '

Evelyn who had just arrived carrying an order sandwich Ana scrunched her forehead when she saw Ana's reddened face holding back anger.

'Bad news again' Evelyn's inner.

Evelyn knew the secret Ana wanted to cover. Evelyn even witnessed how Ana's life was shattered and changed in an instant. The pain is still evident from year to year. Evelyn will never forget how Ana kicked her out of Ana's life knowing her secret. But Evelyn remained by her side until this point.

"What's wrong? "

Ana opened her eyes and stared intently at Evelyn. As if it was bothering him to ask.

"Make sure he's okay. I'll be back! "

"What's? In seriously? "Squeak the guy there.

"Yes. I'll be back! "

Tut tut tut tut's.

Evelyn is shocked, Ana says she will be back. Is that...

Evelyn looked at Ana, and Ana looked at Evelyn. It was as if with just that look they understood each other. And yes, Evelyn knew what that gaze meant.

"lapsus. You're.. Is correct.. "

"Yes. Let's see if he'll get in my way again. "

Evelyn saw Ana's eyes were already glazed over. Evelyn knows how Ana passed this 3-year period. Evelyn was happy and scared. Happy because Ana will meet the person she has longed for. But also fear, because this is tantamount to opening old wounds. Evelyn was afraid, the events of 4 years ago happened again.

'hopefully. Hope this is just my fear Ana. '
