Mission Jessy
Jessy and Swim
(December 2016)
Melva, a student who has just moved to Galaxy High School, is shivering with ice water by three of her friends. As if not satisfied with the new child, Fania and her two friends shake Melva's head and force the girl whose uniform is soaked and cold to plunge into the school pool which has a depth of more than two meters.
The girl with tears asked for help because she could not swim. But Fania and her friends just feel comforted and let the girl go.
Jessica Abraham, who is notoriously cold and anti-interference in other people's affairs can no longer bear to see the actions of her friends. He didn't want any more casualties especially in his favorite pool. He took off his earphones and went straight into the pool to help the new boy. He could not even take off his favorite shoes.

(14 February 2017)
That day was the most eagerly awaited day for Galaxy High School students who already had a partner. They make it a tradition of prom night parties to spend a romantic evening together with their partners at school with various music and entertainment events.
Since morning all the students are busy preparing everything to celebrate the valentine Galaxy night, ranging from clothes, shoes, accessories and no less important is the pair they will bring on that night.
But that was not the case for Jessy because that day she was busy preparing for a national swimming race that would open her chances to enter the national swimming team. Since childhood, he always dreamed of becoming a champion and being able to participate in the Olympics. Moreover, because Indonesia will host the Olympics next year.
It was a very important day for Jessy and she had prepared everything to win the race that day. But for some reason since meeting James two days ago, he's always been nervous. He can't even sleep and eat well. He may be wrong to try to escape from problems.
But facing the fact that her lover prefers to be with another girl feels heavier for Jessy and she can't afford to hear it for now. So he chose to avoid the man until his race that day was over.
Jessy's turn is almost here. And he entered the racecourse and watched the stands that were filled with hundreds of pairs of eyes and cameras. The organizers started calling his name and he was standing right on the fourth track. Jessy knew something was wrong with her but she didn't want to miss the opportunity that day.
The jury started aba-aba and Jessy began to feel her chest tight. He saw the image of his lover making love to another girl on his couch, then the shadow of the slippers belonging to the girl, and he heard ******* disgusting both of them.
The gun was shot into the air and the participants started to get into the pool, but Jessy felt her body stiff. He had difficulty breathing, his body was shaking violently and could not get into the pool. He was agitated and could not control himself. The boisterous sounds of the audience began to echo through his name in the arena.
Jessy was afraid to go into the pool. He had no idea what had happened and what he had done but he suddenly became panicked and only knew that he had to run. Running from the blasphemy of the race-goers, running from the news-hunters, running from the anger and disappointment of his father and also running from himself who did not dare to accept the fact that the only person he loved so much since childhood had the heart to betray him and make love to the other girl in the world in front of his own eyes.

Melva feels deeply indebted because Jessy saved her from the pool a few months ago, so she wants to always be a good friend to Jessy, including by helping him do homework even though he refused and also joined the group of Jessy supporters even though he knew he would be left or even bullied while on the bus or race arena later.
After all, Melva is a persistent girl and is used to receiving bad treatment from her friends. So he doesn't want to give up on attending and providing support to Jessy, the future swimming star candidate.
And it turns out Melva's guess was right, she was almost abandoned by the bus if she didn't arrive an hour early and hid in the bus. He is also almost in the lock in the bathroom of the racecourse if he does not install a wedge at the end of the door leaf and also sits on a pile of gum if he does not bring a carton for the seat in the stands onlooker.
Melva can already read the usual tricks her friends do to bully her. But not that day. She doesn't want to miss the most meaningful moments in Jessy's life just because of her friends.
Jessy and all the other participants were already in her position. The committee shot a gun into the air, but Jessy was silent. He did not enter the pool like the other participants.
The audience started boisterously cheering Jessy's name but the girl was fixated and Melva could clearly see her body shaking violently. Jessy suddenly had an acute panic and ran away from the racecourse.
"Jessy why?" Melva tries to get off the stands to follow Jessy who runs out of the racecourse.
Melva looks for Jessy everywhere but doesn't meet her. He looked in the room and saw Jessy being held tightly by a man.
"Call Jess! It's okay, baby!"
"Gue... I-i..." Jessy could only cry.
And that man was a person Melva knew very well. The man who had carried him on the cloud, promised him a million joys and then dropped him into the bowels of the earth at that time, James.
Melva was smart enough to realize what was happening. He turned his steps, dashing out of the arena. But instead of running towards the bus that took him to the sports hall where the race was held, he ran towards the highway.
Melva lost her way, she didn't know where to go and what to do. He continued running and suddenly a car drove at high speed and hit him until it bounced and fell into a tree.
Surprisingly, the car did not come from the highway that Melva was passing through, but rather from inside the parking lot of the sports hall. Melva could only see and remember the license plate of the car that hit her body from that front, then everything disappeared and darkened.
