The Cruel Destiny

THIRTY EIGHT

The midterms ended today, but the entire student could not breathe a sigh of relief because they did not yet know how the results of the exam.

Dafa came out of his faculty building to look for his three friends, he had not met for a few days because of the busyness of each face the test.

While walking the view of Dafa scanned around the campus area, until then he accidentally saw Fani who was sitting alone near an evergreen tree lined up in front of the faculty.

The girl looked glum-faced, even she as if she did not care about the surroundings.

But Dafa did not want to bother with it, after all he and Fani were not so close.

Then the man continued his steps to the canteen near the Faculty of MIPA, because his three friends had been waiting for him there.

And sure enough, there Arion and his two best friends and his girlfriend were hanging out while eating snacks.

While they were chatting suddenly a level brother approached their table, he was one of the BEM members at the Light Stars campus.

"You're Arion, right?." He looked at Arion sitting next to Elmira.

"Yes, what's wrong?." Ask Arion curiously.

"You're called to the rector's office, right now." Answer the man.

Then without waiting for an answer from Arion the man passed away, it seemed like he had another bustle.

"Rion, did you make a mistake?." Ask Felix.

Arion quickly shook his head.

"I don't think I've done anything wrong, why are you like that?." Arion asked back.

"Who knows when your test is cheating, continue to be discovered and then called the rector." Brady said.

"Ck, just haphazardly, I did the test honestly, not like you."Reply Arion.

"Udah, already, mending you meet the rector now Rion, who knows you've been awaited." Sela Elmira, she was also curious why her lover was called by the rector.

"All right, but you're coming? I don't want you here with them." Arion said while pointing at Felix and Brady alternately.

Seeing Arion's attitude made his two best friends snort in annoyance.

"Yes, but I'm waiting outside the building." Elmira said.

Then they both woke up.

"Where are you going?." Ask Dafa who just arrived.

"You'll see the rector." Reply Arion as it passes.

Dafa nodded his head and joined Felix and Brady.

Arion entered the rector's room after a staff member invited him.

After knocking on the door and being invited in, Arion opened the door and he was quite surprised to see his Papa there.

After greeting Arion sat next to his father.

"So this is Rion, my goal is to call you here because I want to tell you to participate in the selection of campus sons and daughters, the show will be held in a few days." Said the middle-aged man who was fat.

Arion's expression turned irritated, he was sure that in this case there must be interference from his father.

"Rightly what Mr. Vian said, you must participate, besides you must also win." Connect Roger.

"But I'm not interested in Pa." Arion rebutted while pressing his tone.

"There is no rebuttal Rion, besides you also have a lot of free time because you have not helped Papa anymore in the office." Roger said firmly.

Arion also finally did not argue anymore because he knew it was all for nothing, if he insisted there could be a commotion in the rector's room.

"So the decision is final if Arion will join , then you can fill out the form immediately." Then Mr. Vian also offered an empty form.

With laziness Arion also filled it with witnessed by Roger.

After all, Arion left, as well as Roger who intends to return to his office.

Then Roger and Arion walked out of the rector.

Elmira who was waiting for Arion in front of the building looked curious, as she saw her lover walking with someone she did not know.

Arion hastened to approach Elmira and leaves her father a few steps behind.

"What's Rion? why are you called rector?." Elmira asked as Arion arrived before her.

Arion did not have time to answer suddenly Roger was standing next to him with a face that is difficult to explain.

"He who is Rion?." Roger asked as he scanned Elmira's performance which he thought was very classy. But when Roger noticed the look of the girl's face in front of him more carefully, he felt if the look of his face was very familiar.

"She's Elmira Pa, she's also a major with me." Arion replies "El, it's my Papa." Go on Elmira. Finally, Arion was forced to introduce his Papa to the lover.

Knowing if the one standing in front of him was the parents of Arion, suddenly Elmira became nervous even her hands to sweat.

"Se, good day sir." Sapa Elmira, he did not dare to call with the name Om. He was aware of his position that was not on par with the Arion family.

Roger ignored the greeting from Elmira, because the corner of his heart really felt disturbed. Especially when looking at the black birthmark at the left corner of Elmira's eyes.

"Later after dinner meet Papa at work." Then without saying anything else Roger passed away.

Arion and Elmira look at each other while looking at Roger's back on the way to his car.

Then the two of them stepped together to meet their three friends.

While passing through the BEM office they saw many students queuing up there, it seemed like they all intended to enroll in the campus son and daughter selection.

"Many fans as well." Chirps Elmira.

"Yes, I was also told to come with my father." Arion.

"Continue?." The girl looked curious.

" Yes, how else, I can't refuse my Papa's orders. Moreover, I was pushed in front of the rector, so there was no way I would fight my Papa there, finally I was forced to agree to it." Answer Arion.

" It's good that you have the support of your Papa." Elmira said with a smile.

"Ck, what's good, unless you're new I'm excited to join the competition. Are you coming with El?." Arion tried to take her lover.

"Rion, didn't I tell you I didn't want to go to that kind of competition." Reject Elmira "But be calm, I will be your most loyal supporter." Further.

"Yes, yeah." Arion said while embracing Elmira's shoulder.

For a moment they looked at each other while throwing a smile, looking very romantic and making the students feel jealous to see it.

During the trip to the company, Roger only fell silent with a bent eyebrow. It seemed like he was thinking of something very heavy.

Previously he had finished reviewing the project that will be inaugurated a week later, a mall with a playground in the same place has stood on the land of the former slum. But he gets word that there is a campus men and women's election, but Arion is not seen registering himself.

As a respected conglomerate and also the number one donor at the Light Stars campus, Roger also wanted to see his son win the competition. Moreover, later whoever wins will be made a campus ambassador, and Roger wants his son to be one of them.

Therefore, Roger also visited the Light Stars and met directly with the rector to persuade Arion to join the competition.

Arriving at his office he rushed towards his study, then he called his secretary because there was a task that he would be given.

Not long after that, Ervin arrived.

"What did you call me?." Ervin asked who was now standing in front of his boss' desk.

"I want you to investigate a girl by the name of Elmira, she's Arion's classmate, find out everything and I'd like to have a report by six in the afternoon." Tell Roger.

"Good sir." Ervin said obediently.

Then Ervin immediately carried out the orders of his boss, he mobilized his trusted people to collect the information needed by his boss.

Not yet arrived at the canteen Arion and Elmira cross paths with his three best friends.

"You want to go home?." Ask Arion.

"It's like that, but if you want to hang out we'll do it, won't we?." Felix looked at Brady and Dafa alternately.

"May also, count the brain refresh after the battle with the test." Reply Brady who looks excited.

"I'm also following you." Dafa Said.

Arion turned to look at Elmira.

"You want to come?."

"Sorry Rion, I want to rest, because later in the afternoon I have to work again. Because during the exam I'm off work, so it's not good to have another day." Answer Elmira.

Arion also understands the position of his lover, and he does not dispute it.

Arion once told Elmira to stop working because she felt sorry for the girl, and promised to give her money for her living expenses.

But Elmira resolutely refused, she did not want to be a burden to others, besides she was still able to find her own money.

Not long after, Arion drove Elmira home, while his three best friends followed behind with their cars.

From Elmira's place they returned to turn around and went to their coffee shop subscription four of them.
