The Chapter 1 Steyfano Marcues

There. The stars are waiting for the morning. Above the light of the street. Light up in every corner of darkness. In the sky is far more beautiful than on earth. Up there certainly can walk while floating. With a view full of charm. Peace without any conflict. On earth. Man walks through darkness. There is no peace. Walking with sweat and blood drops. Science has turned the world more violent. Treasure and life. Shithead.

Living alone in a quiet, majestic hut. Just accompanied by a street cat. And expired instant foods. And a bed full of books and garbage. And a clogged toilet.

" ANY WAY TO SURVIVE TO LIVE "

such is the writing on a paper in the safe of the relics of mama and papa. The mounds of money I hate so much. Why don't they just take this safe full of money? Why should my parents take it?

I put some of that money in the bag. All books are ready. And the uniform I haven't washed for 2 weeks. Just riding a bike, I arrived at the school gate.

A lunch bell rings. Now everyone has entered a cafeteria and sat there while eating food that is not nutritious.

" What are we going to do to the rancid children of that next door village? We need a big plan." He said Roni while devouring meatballs in his bowl.

" And a lot of members. We can't beat them if only 5 people fight against the village's children. We should form an ally. " Athnan then replied with a mouth that was still full.

" You think finding that many allies is easy. We just don't know how to socialize. " That's how she came to say.

" Dimas is right, we can't fight them if we're outnumbered. And we don't have that many allies. Why don't we just attack them? Prove that the winner doesn't have to bring a lot of friends." I said while stirring the meatball sauce.

" Crazy huh? We've always been so easy to get caught by them! How do you want to win?" Edra said with his dewy glasses.

"Your mom has a knife in the kitchen, right? And doesn't your father still have celurit?" I'm getting upset over everything.

" Weh... You insane? We could be in stupid jail!" Atnan.

" That's better. In jail. Not doing anything but always being fed for free. "

Until everything fell silent and left silence for a while.

" There is nothing to fear in this country. There is no fair law here. Even for me. I can do it on my own you don't have to bother!"

"What do you think of that, Steyf? We all have the same problem. We are in the same vicious circle. This is not the time to be a hero. " Said Roni.

" What do you have a plan for solving this problem? Kneel for mercy on them as a coward?"

" Hey, relax. Think of the plan with a clean mind." Said Edra.

I couldn't hold back a lump of emotion in my blood that kept going up. I walked by slamming the chair I was sitting on. Walk towards class. And then took some money and slammed her in front of the headmaster.

"Hey!! Where's your manners?" He yelled at me who was walking with a bag hanging on my back. Then take my bike and ride it to the gate.

" Where are you going? It's still school hours. It's not time for pu..."

Halah shithead. I just let the talk be useless. I hit him making him fall sprawl. And I trampled and smacked his face with all my remaining anger.

I came out of school with tears that kept dripping every time I remembered my mom. On each side of his face. Beautiful with hair in the booth. And a white pajama dress that enveloped her body. With his gentle attitude. And with her sweet voice. I slammed my bike in the front yard. I slammed the door and hit my head at the door. I don't care about getting sick. I care more about anger. A sense of loss that is hard to explain. Pain that continues to eat away at the mental and soul.

Everything just happens. I fell down with anger that still had not subsided. I sat among the rubbish that was piling up in my house. Until the dark covers the sun. I walk with my body staggering. With sunken eyes. And an axe and trimmer scissors in hand. I approached them with a body that could not even be upright. By ourselves. With a shaking hand.

" I thought he was a demon." He was a tall man with a hoarse voice saying. Others will laugh because of it.

" said he wanted to save his parents. Step aside from Rey, give this Grandma Hero a walk. " And the one beside him laughed as wide as his face.

Why listen to those who know nothing. The son of the Corruption City must be destroyed immediately. With his smile that almost made his mouth torn apart. And with his deafening voice of laughter. It was no different from his sick scream as the axe floated into his mouth. Leaving countless dripping blood. And unequaled pain. Everything froze. They look like a dog that's afraid of the apocalypse. They just looked at him with wide eyes. Seeing him wriggling like a hot worm. And there's nothing I can do with an unhealed anger. I pulled out his tongue and cut it with the bush trimmer scissors I was carrying. There was no more word he could say. That shout became his will before he died.

That night just ended. No one dared to speak after that. Everything just froze and did not dare to move. That's how my anger died down. And I walked back home without leaving a word. I came home with a still staggering body. The difference is now that my clothes are full of blood. It will be hard to clean. Or maybe I don't need to clean it up. Just let the blood stick to my white shirt.

What time is it now? The streets are deserted. There was only the sound of crickets singing from a distance. I walked past the fence of my luxurious and quiet house. And look at them, waiting for me in front of the house. With a broad and question mark. Looking at my zombie-like body just ate the prey. I ignored that look and went inside the house. Passing through a door that has been open for a long time. Looks like they're looking for me right inside the house. I closed the door and locked it. Smells a foul smell from my house. I turned on the lights and slept among the trash.

Did the moon tell the sun last night? Today feels ordinary. The sun was so bright when I came out of the house. I chose to walk. My bike was destroyed when I slammed it yesterday. At least I'm quite satisfied with what happened.

I'm sitting at my desk. And then take out a book and read it.

"You killed them all by yourself?" Edra asked while sitting next to me.

" I just killed Niko. The others I let. I'm satisfied enough. "

" Why don't you just kill them all? Do you know their mouths like mothers?" Then Atnan chimed in.

" don't. I'm not gonna have any prey for me to take out."

" Stop babbling! You guys didn't even help anything last night. "

" How will we help? You've gone alone without cueing like a fool!" Roni.

" We searched your house last night. You know you've come home with an ax and scissors full of blood. What do you think we can do with our mouths agape?" Atnan.

" I thought you were out of school. Why did you throw money at the principal?" Ask Dimas.

" What the hell? It's just money like I've been waiting for 3 years!"

" God is 3 years! How many millions?" Dimas.

" Somebody signed up for our group, Steyf, by the way" Edra said.

" Who?"

" Do you remember the corn-haired boy who was good at German?"

" O.. the master of the chemistry lab? What's name?"

We haven't finished our conversation, the bell has rung. All the children sat at their desks. And the fat teacher went into the classroom.

" Steyf, you're waiting for the principal in his room. " Said.

Then I stood up and approached the principal in his room.

" What money is this? You want to bribe me?"

" You said I should pay off spp immediately before the end-of-school exam.."

" Aren't you able to have a little manners? And what did you do to the security guard yesterday, huh? You think this is a boxing training ground?"

" I'm in a hurry sir.."

" What rush?"

" Hurry up, there's an important problem! What do you know about my life problems? Can't you just babble? Giving various vague advice that does not necessarily restore the integrity of my family!"

Then I walked out after rummaging through his emotions. I walked back to class and breathed. By the time I entered the classroom, the seat next to me had been occupied by an adorable creature I had never seen before. Of course I won't let those confused questions freeze my body in front of the classroom. And then I just sat next to him and returned to the learning that took place.

School is over. I walked to go home. But my body has been pulled back.

" What's the rush? You promised you'd see him after school!" He said while glaring.

I can't do anything but obey Roni. He kept urging me to keep waiting.

" Are you not tired? My head is already dizzy. Forget about him, let's go home. Is there not tomorrow?"

" You can't be patient for a little more, can you? It's hard to make an appointment with him."

And a few moments later, the person waiting for it came with disheveled hair and full of chemical smell.

" Sorry. Sorry for waiting so long. There was some trouble in the lab."

Name's Leo. Leonardho Marcues's. He and I have the same name. It was something we accidentally knew. The three of us talked to him. Regarding what the problem is, until discussing the plan of attack on the children of the next village. Atnan, Dimas, and Edra were unable to express their opinions. They were busy with part-time jobs and today the three of them had to take care of the night. We came home when the sun had started to sink, and it had turned dark again.

I just sat on a couch full of trash. I'mtired. The stench of this accumulated trash was very nose-piercing. But it's already night. And I'm tired. Lazy to clean the house. At that time, the door was knocked. Who else came here during this break? I was lazy to receive guests, so I just peeked through the window. That's the principal. What's he doing on this beautiful night? Didn't he think that he was just an atmosphere destroyer? I ignored him. I sat back on the couch and waited for him to leave.

For a while, the knock on the door stopped. I looked towards the door and I saw a small envelope tucked under it. I stepped up and took it. 4 Days suspension statement. That nice. The school does not know that this type of punishment is very beneficial for me. I threw that useless trash on the floor. Then climb the stairs to the top floor and sleep in the room mama and papa are very clean compared to my room and other rooms.

I don't know how long I can't stay shut. I was thinking about mama. What the hell is he doing? Does he miss me? I miss his kiss before going to bed. It's been a while since that incident, I've thought about it a lot.

I woke up earlier today. When I woke up, I saw the screen of the phone that had been filled with call history from Edra. Whatisthis? He called me up to this much. This is even more than 20 times. What the hell is he doing? I am the kind of person who doesn't care much. Seeing her calling me up to this much, I tried to call her back. But the phone is dead. Yes already.

I got up from the bed. This suspension sentence doesn't bother me at all. I tried my hardest not to be lazy today. I threw away all the trash on the floor. Which has piled up and rotted until about 10 years I just let it go. Since that incident, I didn't dare to get out of the lobby. And just sit there until the situation outside starts to subside.

I haven't seen my house this clean. And it's time to replace those expired instant foods. I walked to the door to go to the supermarket with a few pieces of money. My door opens. I saw my patio floor was so dirty. Very-very dirty. I was busy cleaning up the trash inside the house. Until I realized there was a body on my doorstep. Edra. It's so bad he. My wisest friend. He died in vain with his eyeballs that had been choked somewhere. The worst body ever. With a neck that was like it had just been chopped off with an axe and that nice arm was detached from its body. What the hell happened to you?
