Alice and the other students entered the laboratory room to conduct a practicum exam.
All students use personal protective equipment so as not to be exposed to substances that are quite dangerous.
Lecturers also monitor what they do.
One by one they began to carry out instructions from the Lecturer as well as what they had learned so far.
It was time for Alice's turn.
Alice did very well.
Lecturers praised her practicum and it was certain that Alice would get satisfactory grades.
It certainly makes his friends envious and do not like to see the achievements of Alice.
"You see that, everywhere he's always acting like the smartest person."
said one of the students who is also a friend of Alice's school when sitting in High School.
"We can't let it linger over the clouds anymore."
say another student.
"What do you mean?"
He finally understood after hearing the whisper of his friend who intended to do a plan to avenge Alice.
"A good idea.
This time we have to destroy that cunning girl!"
"Hem, we'll see.
Whether he can smile or not."
he said with a grin.
After finishing the practicum exam, it is time to clean up the practicum tools.
One by one the students began to leave the room and none of them intended to return the practicum tools to their original place.
Only Alice did.
And in the end only Alice cleared it all up.
He will not be able to leave the room in a messy condition.
Alice began to return the practicum tools one by one.
Suddenly Alice heard an explosive sound from the back table.
Alice was surprised.
He slowly approached the table and from the smell he was able to recognize that the explosion occurred as a result of two dangerous substances being mixed.
Who did that?
Lucky he wasn't there.
If it is not possible, he will suffer damage to the skin.
Unexpectedly from the other direction suddenly came smoke.
As a result Alice coughed.
His throat slowly became dry.
Alice held tightly to the wall and tried to get out of there immediately.
But he can't.
Alice then picks up her phone and tries to call someone for help.
His first name was Ell.
No one could save him but Ell.
And after what happened all this time especially yesterday, he was sure that the man had a sense of concern for him.
The first call was not answered by Ell.
Alice tried to call Ell back.
And lucky this time Ell answered.
"Hello..."
ell said from his place.
Now Ell comes to the library intending to bring back the book he used yesterday to protect Alice's face from the sun.
Suddenly he felt a vibration coming from his phone.
At first, he had no intention of answering the call.
But on the second call he decided to answer.
"Hello.."
ell said again after not getting a response from the person who called her.
Ell saw the phone screen.
The number is not stored in the contact.
"Hello Sister..."
alice said with a severed breath.
"Who is this?"
Ell tried to recognize the voice.
A voice like he knew.
"I'm Alice Brother."
"What's wrong?"
"Please save me, brother."
From Alice's voice, Ell can be sure that Alice desperately needs help from him.
"Where are you now?"
"I'm in the lab."
"All right, I'll be there soon.
Wait for me."
Ell rushed straight out of the library room.
He accelerated his steps towards the laboratory room in a separate building with another building.
Moments later, Ell arrived at the laboratory.
He went straight in there.
And as he entered, he saw a lot of smoke everywhere.
He also started coughing.
But even so, he was still looking for where Alice was.
Ell searched every corner of the room.
And finally he managed to find Alice lying near the table.
He immediately approached the girl and carried her to a place further away from the source of the smoke.
"Alice...
You okay?"
Ell tries to resuscitate Alice.
"Sister Ell.."
Alice faintly saw Ell's face before her.
Alice smiled.
He knew Ell would come to his rescue.
Eventually his eyes slowly closed and he was unconscious again.
"Alice..."
Ell patted Alice's cheek.
And true to her guess, Alice fainted.
Ell looked around.
He believes the smoke comes from a poisonous gas that makes people faint and even experience respiratory problems if inhaling it for a long time.
Ell then took off her jacket and used it as a cover on Alice's face to keep the girl from inhaling that much toxic gas again.
Ell was going to take Alice out of there.
But slowly he began to feel shortness of breath.
Ell held tightly to his chest.
His vision also began to blur.
Ell couldn't stand it anymore, until her body was lying next to Alice.
Ell looked towards Alice.
His hand reached out to touch Alice's face.
And then Ell's eyes slowly popped.
Both are in unconscious condition.
30 Minutes later, the next class was getting ready to go to the laboratory room to conduct a practicum exam.
Lecturers and students enter the laboratory.
Yet they were all so shocked to see the sight before them.
Ell and Alice were lying hugging on the floor.
"What are you guys doing here?
Absolutely outrageous!"
said the lecturer in a high tone.
They all misunderstood and thought that Ell and Alice were doing immoral acts there.
Not a few of them also capture the moment by photographing Ell and Alice.
They intend to disseminate the photo to the public, considering that Ell and Alice are from prominent families as well as the explorers from their campus.
The public will be excited later.
They try to wake Ell and Alice.
But they both did not open their eyes.
Ell and Alice are then taken to the campus polyclinic.
The Polyclinic nurse then asked the campus to take Ell and Alice to the hospital because they could not confirm what was happening with the two.
--
Marine and Mario and Sergio who were in the office were so shocked to see the news that appeared before them.
"What-what's this!
How could they possibly broadcast such a thing?"
said Marine with a tone of anger.
"Dear calm.
Ell and Alice couldn't possibly do such a bad thing.
There must be some misunderstanding there."
Mario tried to calm his wife.
"Mario's right Marine.
We all know that Ell and Alice are good children.
We'd better get to the hospital right now and hear the explanation directly from Ell and Alice."
"You're right Sergio.
Honey, let's go to the hospital."
They then rushed to the hospital.
They had to hear an explanation directly from Ell.
Do not let it cause big problems for their family names.
Arriving at the hospital, Marine, Mario and Sergio get out of the car.
Outside there were already many reporters standing in front of the hospital.
Their arrival also made the reporters run towards them.
Luckily the Dakota Family had such tight guard that none of the reporters could cover them or enter the hospital.
Marine, Mario and Sergio immediately approach the Doctor who checks Ell and Alice's condition.
There are also several campus parties .
"What happened to those two Doc?"
ask Mario.
"Ell and Alice were unconscious from inhaling the poisonous gas from the laboratory room.
They're doing just fine.
Luckily they were taken to the hospital.
Things might get a lot worse if they're taken to the hospital late."
"How can Ell and Alice be in the same room?
Ell and Alice are on different levels.
You know that too, right?"
Marine stared intently at the Lecturer's side.
"The last information we got was that Miss Alice and the other students were taking a practicum exam in the room.
All students are believed to have come out after taking the exam.
The equipment is no longer used.
We don't understand why Miss Alice is still in the room and can breathe in such poisonous gas."
"Alice..."
Marine growled in annoyance.
The girl always causes trouble in their family.
"For Mr. Ell, we don't know why he was there."
"Thank you for the information.
For the next we ask your help to convey to the students and also the public that the news that was spread was not true.
Ell and Alice did nothing sacrilegious."
"Good Sir.
We'll tell you the truth soon."
"Thank you.."
"Mara..."
They all looked towards Laura who had just come.
"What's really going on?
I was so surprised to see the news."
"Everything's just misunderstanding, baby."
said Sergio.
"And what about Ell and Alice?
They're okay, right?"
Laura was more worried about both of them than the news that befell her family.
Because he thinks Ell and Alice will be victims of public misunderstanding.
"They are still unconscious.
Take it easy, they'll be fine, baby."
Sergio stroked the shoulder of his wife who looked so worried.
--
A few hours later, the Sister approached the family members waiting in the waiting room.
"Both patients are conscious, ma'am."
They all immediately stood up and rushed into the room where Ell and Alice were being cared for.
Ell and Alice were in the same room with the bed side by side.
Alice nodded her head which still hurt.
Then he looked to the side.
There Ell was sitting on the bed looking at her phone so seriously.
Alice tried to change her position to sit
He opened his phone.
Alice shook her head, in disbelief.
He was so surprised to see himself and Ell being the topic of conversation on campus.
To make matters worse, they were accused of immoral conduct in a laboratory room.
Alice looked towards El.
He really felt guilty for what happened.
"Sister Ell..."
Ell looked at him.
"I'm..."
Not only did he continue his sentence, the door of the room suddenly opened, and featured Marine, Mario, Sergio and Laura walking towards them.
Marine quickly stepped up, approaching Alice's bed.
Without thinking much, he immediately gave a hard slap on Alice's cheek.
This surprised all the other family members.
Alice's cheeks were instantly blown away.
He immediately held his cheek which felt hot.
Slowly his eyes began to glaze over as he looked towards his aunt who was filled with anger.
"Marine, what are you doing, huh?"
Mario approaches Marine.
He disliked his wife's very rude behavior.
"Why are you always causing trouble in my family?
Your mother used to be, and now you.
You two really ruined my family's life.
You're satisfied, huh?"
"Mara..."
Laura tries to stop Marine from speaking to Alice.
"I really hate you..."
added Marine.
All of Marine's words certainly made Alice so sad.
Her tears just escaped until they flooded her face.
Alice was crying.
"Auntie, I...."
"I don't want to see your face again!"
said Marine and then walked out of the room in a state of anger.
Mario then follows Marine.
After Marine and Mario, Laura immediately approached Alice.
"Auntie, I didn't mean to cause any of this."
alice said in a stammer.
"Dear, Auntie knows."
Laura stroked Alice's red cheek, the former Marine slap.
He was so sad to see Alice like that.
Laura hugged him tightly.
Alice was crying in Laura's arms.
He just wanted to leave, to leave all his sadness.
Ell looked towards Alice who was crying in her mother's arms.
As with the rest of the family, he also did not receive Marine's harsh treatment of Alice.
Honestly, he did not blame Alice for what happened.
Because it's all just a misunderstanding.
He and Alice both did not expect it to happen.
