JUDITH

TRUTH REVEALED

"Please pay attention, Yudith, please come to the school office right now. Once again, Yudith was a first-class student from the Flamboyant House, immediately to the school office facing Sister Davince."

After being searched and not found, finally the office picket officer called Yudith using a loudspeaker in the hall.

The five of them were enjoying lunch and exchanged glances.

"What's up, Dith?" andreas asked representing the other-whose mouth was still on busy chewing.

Yudith just shook her head. He did not know why he had suddenly been summoned, but his instincts could already guess that it must have something to do with yesterday's events.

"Yes, there's a sneak into your office."

"Pipetan ate it. We're moving into the visiting room." Sister Vero put in the last mouthful until her mouth was full.

"What are we doing there?" Fitus's eyes squinted at Sister Vero who had trouble swallowing her food.

"You eavesdrop, Iah. What else is it." Ririsma answered.

"I'll go first." Yudith rose from his seat. His eyes were somehow focused on Andreas.

"Be careful." Stared intensely like that, Andreas was suddenly nervous and did not know what to say.

He himself felt silly asking Yudith carefully when only going to the office from where he was sitting now the building was visible.

Yudith stepped with a slightly worried heart, her heartbeat began to race. In his mind wondering, what else is this?

Arriving at the office and seeing Ambar, it felt like Yudith's heart was sagging into the stomach. Moreover, Sister Davince's face looked crimson and wet with sweat.

"Good day, Sister." The girl said a very nice greeting. Sister Davince's eyes stared intently, making her heart even more unfazed.

"Sit down!" sister Davince's voice was very firm, not as usual. Only once did Yudith hear him speak in such a tone.

Sitting beside Ambar, Yudith looked down, looking at his clenched hand on the lap.

"Now say, did you fall by yourself yesterday or did someone push?"

At that moment Yudith raised her head, her face stiffened, wanting to avoid Sister Davince's gaze, but unable. The Headmaster's gaze was like locking his eyes as a target. Yudith gulped to moisten the throat which suddenly felt dry.

"By the way, Dith! Let me know this Ambar's report is true or just bullshit!"

Yudith's shoulder went to see because Sister Davince kicked the table. "Ma-sorry, Sister. I've been lying." Yudith thought that the presence of Ambar must have something to do with yesterday's events.

Considering that Ambar was very close to Ms. Cici, Yudith was sure that Ambar must have known something. However, Yudith did not understand why he reported to Sister Davince instead of protecting Ms. Cici.

"So it's Cici who pushed you?" Sister Davince knew that Yudith would not answer blatantly, which made him even more angry. "You know that your actions are dangerous? Injuries to the head cannot be underestimated! If anything happens to you, how do we take responsibility for your mother?"

Yudith. Again, because of the habit of carrying the burden alone, Yudith forgot that he was now part of the responsibility of the foundation, including the responsibility of Mr. Heru as well.

"Sorry, Sister." Yudith had admitted that he was guilty. He does not want to be selfish anymore, defend himself with reason all for the common good or does not want to make a fuss and exaggerate the problem.

He should have been honest from the beginning so that Ms. Cici could be dealt with immediately. Does not cover up the actions of Bu Cici is the same as giving the opportunity for the same event to be repeated again, maybe on him, it could be on others.

"So it's Cici who pushed you?"

Unwilling to deny, but also not wanting to explain the true events, Yudith simply nodded.

After constantly speaking in a high tone until the neck veins stiffened, Sister Davince finally let out a long sigh and exhaled slowly. After making a softer voice, "I've told Mr. Heru. He'll take you to the hospital."

Tok tok tok tok

Their attention was diverted to the door, where Mr. Heru rushed in without waiting to be invited first. His face looked tense, as he stepped towards Yudith he nodded his head merely at Sister Davince.

"Where to, Dith? There was an incident like that I didn't say you were." Sir Heru sat in the chair next to Yudith. Accidentally his eyes met with Bu Ambar, then he hurriedly said, "Thank you, Miss Ambar, already told me. If not, this child will not talk."

Having joined Yudith while still in Orchid Dormitory, Bu Ambar felt unworthy of the thank you. He just smiled awkwardly with a reddened face.

"I'm sorry Yudith, sir. Yudith please don't tell me the same mother." When I say the word mother, the voice of Yudith is stuck in the throat.

"That's business later. Now check into the hospital."

"Go now before Cici and Sister Rosa come." Sister Davince does not want Yudith to meet Bu Cici for fear that the child's soul is not ready to meet the person who lately has always made it difficult.

"We're leaving now, Dith."

The girl got up from her seat and looked at Ambar. "Thank you, Miss Ambar." After facing Sister Davince. "Thank you, Sister Davince."

"Yes, watch out for you."

After saying goodbye, Mr. Heru and Yudith came out of the office and were immediately greeted by those who had eavesdropped from the visiting room.

"You are, yes, you can't tell the real story." Sister Vero immediately nagged.

Andreas who felt his conjecture was right and had already repeatedly said what I told the others, was now staring at Yudith.

"You really worry us all, Dith."

"Lo iya. Next time don't do it again."

"Lo just sonoh apologized. I'm not really!"

"I'm sorry it has to be. But it can wait." Sister Vero looked at Mr. Heru. "We can take Yudith to the hospital, sir?"

"Follow it, no papa, Sus. Andreas with Fitus and I'll take you home. You're not supposed to be in the complex at this hour."

Andreas and Fitus laughed grimly. "We are loyal friends, sir," said Fitus jokingly.

Not wanting to linger, Mr. Heru immediately invited them to leave by driving a foundation car. Not long after their car came out of the gate, the car that Sister Rosa was driving in.

Ms. Cici had already felt a bad feeling from before being called because she did not find Ms. Ambar in the dormitory. In his heart he swore an oath, cursing Bu Ambar who he considered to have betrayed.

As soon as he walked into the office and found Ambar sitting there, his anger could not be contained anymore. He stormed Bu Ambar and directly slapped and grabbed his hair without being prevented.

"Fuck you traitor!"

"Cici's sick! Crazyhead! Psychopath!" Bu Ambar pushed Bu Cici with all his might until he staggered back.

Bu Cici's hard slap caused a reddish mark on Bu Ambar's cheeks which were glowing-proof she was actually taking care of his skin.

"Bad you! Goddamn bum!" Ms. Cici came forward again and grabbed Ms. Ambar's hair again.

Ambar did not remain silent. He also grabbed Bu Cici's hair and shook her. "You've gone too far. You crazy psychopath!"

So angry, Sister Rosa was unable to do or say anything. He just stood staring with his eyes and face crimson.

Brak brak brak

"Stop!" Sister Davince kicked the table while yelling. The two women spontaneously separated.

"Barbarians are like forest men! How embarrassing!" Sister Rosa spoke softly, but was full of emphasis from between tightly clenched teeth.

Faced with the nanar gazes of Sister Davince and Sister Rosa, the guts of the two officers shrieked instantly. Their heads immediately bowed deeply.

Their faces were all flushed. Sister Davince and Sister Rosa are red with anger, while Ms. Cici and Ms. Ambar are embarrassed and slapped.

"Your work is over, Cici! If the child has an injury on his head how? Before acting it is thought! Put that brain on!" So angry, while talking about Sister Davince's hand constantly knocking on the table.

"After this you do not have to go back to the staff house. Later Ambar will help you pack the goods, Sunday I myself will take you to Juanda." Her voice was not as fiery as Sister Davince, but the content of Sister Rosa's words was much more shocking for Ms. Cici.

"I don't want to move out of the island!" In a cornered state and knew clearly he was guilty, Ms. Cici still had time to stare at Sister Rosa, even her tone was high.

Sister Rosa smiled cynically. "Transfer your word?"

Sister Davince chimed in, "Who said you'd be moved off the island?! You think your actions are still tolerable, huh?!" All of them were screaming due to the sound of an incredible table shake. Sister Rosa sighed while stroking her chest, Bu Cici was silent at once, and Bu Ambar lowered his head. "You're expelled!"

Despite the expectations, Ms. Cici was still shocked when Sister Davince made her point clear.

Although he has said no problem issued as long as revenge has been reciprocated, the reality is now he feels unwilling to leave the place that has given him a lot of this convenience.

"Tanta, don't push Cici away. Cici promise---"

"Can't!"

"Tanta, Cici please." Ms. Cici suddenly dropped to the floor and rested at Sister Davince's feet. "Father can kill Cici, Tanta. Don't bring back Cici."

"It's none of my business. So if you want to act, think first!" Sister Davince brushed off the hand of Bu Cici who was holding her hand.

Miss Ambar and Sister Rosa just glanced at me. Sad, not real, but how else. Once violated can still be forgiven and given a chance. However, Bu Cici's actions against Yudith and his threats, have led to the criminal domain. It was time for the arrogant woman to be dealt with more decisively.

Ms. Cici cried roaring, but remained unheeded. Even when told to stand unwilling to stand up, Sister Davince and Sister Rosa simply left him.

While in the hospital, after nearly half an hour inside the examination room, Yudith came out with a pale and tired face. He felt dizzy and a little sleepy.

"Dith."

Andreas approached and was about to hold his arm, but Yudith ignored and preferred to approach Heru. A moment of disappointed look was painted on Andreas' face and was immediately replaced by a fake-looking smile as Sister Vero and Fitus patted his shoulder.

"Sir Heru, please don't tell mom whatever the outcome is. I don't want you to worry."

Every phone call, Yudith always told me the good news, there was never a single complaint. Yudith did not want the mother to think, which could have had a devastating effect on her shortness of breath.

A thin smile adorns Mr. Heru's lips. While patting Yudith on the shoulder, he said, "Don't worry, Dith. I won't say. Hopefully nothing serious. Yuk, back to the dorm. Tomorrow or the day after the results just come out." Heru looked at Andreas. "Titip Yudith, huh, An?"

It should have been a more fitting message for Sister Vero and Ririsma who were with Yudith every day. However, apparently Mr. Heru was quite sensitive and understood what happened to the young man.

Andreas' face flushed red, grimacing and stroking his nape he replied, "Sir Heru take it easy, Yudith must be safe with me."

"Ish, the spiciness of lo. Yudith refused." Ririsma hit Andreas' arm playfully. His advice is not serious either.

"I said together, not being a girlfriend. Yeah, at least until we graduate school. Isn't that right, Dith?" Andreas raised both eyebrows as Yudith looked towards him.

Yudith immediately turned away, a very thin smile on the corner of her lips. It's a big lie that he says he doesn't like Andreas. But for now, things will go as they agreed. Focus on learning first.
