1 month later–
Tiny was able to return to school like Tino. Dino sent them both as usual to school. Since the accident, Tino promised to always accompany and protect his sister so that events like before will never happen again.
BLAM!
Everyone got out of the car and slammed the door. Tiny still looked frightened when he saw the school building in front of him. In his mind, the building was a large, sinister haunted house, filled with evil monsters and demons.
But for today, Tiny will try to calm down and forget what happened to him first.
Actually, Tiny told the perpetrator who had pushed him off the roof to his older brother, Tino. But Tiny still hasn't told her parents.
Tino also won't tell her parents because she promised her sister to keep the secret. The brother kept their secret forever.
“Well, kids, you guys wait a minute? Let's go to your class and Tiny. Don't be careless anymore, okay?” dino's message to her twins.
Tiny wrote the words on a small notebook paper that he carried as a communication tool.
‘OK dad!’ That's what he wrote.
Then he went back to writing again and showed it to me. ‘Dad also beware’
“Oke, okay. See you later, kids!” Dino waved at them. Then, he got into his car and drove it out the school gate and went to work as usual.
Dino had already left with the car he was driving. Tino and Tiny were standing in front of the school building. Tiny wrote something for her sister. He showed me his writing,
‘Thank you for trying not to tell dad and mom about the accident.’
Tino smiled. “Iya no problem. Now you don't have to be afraid. I will always be near you. If anyone wants to mean evil to you again, you just tell me, yeah?”
Tiny nodded happily. Then after that, the two of them together entered the school building and walked towards their respective classes.
****
When he got to the front of the class, Tino escorted Tiny into his class. Inside Tiny's class, as usual, all of them were staring at her cynically.
But Tiny tries to calm down and doesn't care about the attitude of his friends. Tiny would spend her time reading books while waiting for the class bell to ring.
Shortly after, Tiny heard some children talking about him. It is meant by a group of bad children with their leader, Alivia who hates Tiny. Then Alivia moved out of her chair and faced Tiny.
“Heh, one eye turns back to school again, yeah. So diligent. I thought, after you fell out of that building, you were dead. Ehe, it turns out to be alive again.” Alivia said in a mocking tone.
Just being quiet and not caring about the words of the people in front of him, Tiny continued to focus on reading books.
Tiny looks cute. But in his heart, he muttered, "If I could use my eyes to kill them. But unfortunately, dad forbade me."
“Hey, one eye! Look at me when I'm talking to you!” Snapped Alivia while grabbing Tiny's book.
After the book was confiscated, Tiny immediately stood up and retook the book, then walked to the classroom door. Tiny would rather leave the boy than face him.
But suddenly, Tiny's hair pulled Alivia behind him until Tiny fell. After that, Alivia pulled back Tiny's collar and lifted her up. With a cold expression, Tiny remained calm as Alivia treated her like that because she knew that….
THE PLAQUE!
His brother will come and help him. Tino came and directly slapped Alivia's face hard. Everyone's surprised. Alivia let go of Tiny and immediately stared furiously at Tino who was beside her.
“A–what the fuck are you!? What are you doing?” alivia.
THE PLAQUE!
Tino did not answer. She slapped Alivia's face again until her cheeks turned red.
“’What are you doing?’ I should have asked you that question! What did you do to my sister!?” snapped Tino. “A-I won't stay silent if anyone tries to hurt my sister again! Right now, you should feel what my sister has been feeling all along!”
Tino clenched her hands tightly and she intended to hit Alivia to the satisfaction. Alivia could only sit in fear while holding her cheek.
But before Tino swung her punch to hit Alivia, Tiny held back her sister's attack. He hugged his brother until Tino wiped away his anger.
“Tiny, what are you doing?” tino was confused.
Tiny wrote, ‘Don't do that. There will be one, brother who will get in trouble. Brother can't repay her with violence, because she's a daughter.’
Tiny wrote again, ‘Already let it go. I've been feeling better since you came to help me. Thank you ^^’ Tiny slightly tilted her head and smiled at her brother.
“Alright then. This time you all survived. If it wasn't for my sister's request, I would have already finished you off! Now, come on, come with brother. We play together. Don't be here.”
Tino stared intently at all the students in the class including Alivia. “Kakak will act even harder if something bothers you, Tin!” he continued in a rather creepy voice.
As Tino and Tiny go out of class, Alivia stands up again and faces all the kids in the class. Everything was about her until Alivia heard it.
“Wah, it was the first time I saw Alivia slapped a student here!”
“Iya, me too.”
“I think the one-eyed twins are better than Alivia!”
“Hii.. I am now afraid of the twins. Now I'm not afraid of Alivia.”
All the talk of his friends made Alivia even more furious. Just this time he was humiliated by the person he was bully.
“What are you talking about, huh!? Quick go there!!” he nodded with a sharp eye.
All the kids in the class immediately ran out. Only a few children were in his group. Then, Alivia stared intently at her friends. He also walked quickly to them.
“You! Why did you just shut up!? You guys didn't help me! You should have stopped that one-eyed brother. Sick to know my face was slapped!” snarl Alivia again.
All his friends were terrified. “Im sorry, we!”
Alivia turned around slowly while thinking about something with a mumbler, “Huh, I never thought Tino could hit me like this. He was so cruel to me. But...why did he suddenly appear? Hmm.. ah!"
"Is it possible that this was all planned by that one eye? He deliberately wanted to humiliate me in front of all the class children. You ngadu handyman! I'll reply to his actions later!”
KRIIING.…
Alivia thought, Tino was about to leave the classroom soon, so she still had time to talk to Tiny and get revenge.
But it didn't. Tino stood right in front of the classroom door while waiting for the teacher who taught the class to come in and then Tino would go to her own class.
“Basic, can't be expected!” muttered Alivia annoyed.
Tino just smiled vilely at Alivia.
****
Soon after, the teacher who taught came. Tino was surprised and immediately greeted the teacher who suddenly appeared before him.
“Eh, Tino? What are you doing here? Isn't your class next door?” ask the teacher.
“Ah, it's okay, ma'am! Em, I went to my class first, well!” But just as he was about to go to his class, Tino bumped into someone who was behind the teacher's mom. “Eh, sorry! I didn't accidentally.. eh?”
“Oh, Tino, you must have just seen this kid, well?” ask the teacher again.
Tino scratched his head. “Iya, mom. Hehe... is he a new kid?” whisper to the teacher.
The teacher nodded. “Iya. Her name is Tina Santika Putri. She's a new student in your class sister.”
“Ooh...,” Tino nodded happily.
“Good if he's in his class Tiny. May the boy not follow the wrong association in Tiny's class and become his best friend Tiny.” Inner Tino.
“Kids, please calm down, well. Today we have a new friend in class. Let's introduce your name!” said the teacher.
“Hai, friends, my name is Tina Santika Putri. Greetings!” Tina waved her hand at the students in her class. But, after Tina introduced herself, she was not warmly welcomed by the others but instead talked about.
Tina's feelings were sad and disappointed. Tiny saw the face of his new friend sour. Then, Tiny will try to cheer him up. Tiny wrote something on his notebook. Then after that, he raised his hand and showed the result of his writing to Tina who was in front of him.
Tina read the writing.
‘Salam know too. I'm glad I made a new friend. Let's be friends with’
Tina smiled at Tiny. “Alright then.” Tina and Tiny shook hands. Then, Tiny wrote again and showed it to Master.
The teacher read it.
‘Mother, can she sit next to my place?’
The teacher smiled and nodded to Tiny. Tiny was so happy. All this time, he's never had my best friend like everyone else. He sat at the front, but alone.
While the other child must be sitting alone with his own friend. Finally Tiny made a good friend for her. Tina sat down next to Tiny.
A moment later, Tiny returned to writing and showed it to Tina. Tina read Tiny's writing again.
‘It feels good to be my friend with you. My name is Tiny Willona. May we be good friends!’
Tina nodded happily. “Alright!”
So, today Tiny already has a good new friend for her. It's really nice to feel. But the feeling of pleasure is not perfect.
Because there are still many people behind them who do not like the friendship of Tiny and Tina. They were both constantly ridiculed and oppressed. Tina also likes to be persuaded by the group of bad boys to stay away from Tiny by spreading her disgrace. But that's not true.

At break– hours
Tiny and Tina are going to the cafeteria together. But suddenly, Tina invited Alivia to join her group. Alivia whispered something to Tina. Tiny heard their conversation.
“Tina, you're a good boy, so why the hell play with a kid like that. Already disabled, had only one eye, unable to speak and crybaby. Aren't you ashamed of having friends like him?” alivia whispers to Tina.
Tina nodded her head in understanding and thought for a moment. Then she saw me cynical. Tiny doesn't believe this. That demonic whisper had already affected him!?
This is impossible!
“What do you think? Comeon! Just leave him. Come on, you'd be better off playing with us.” Refer to Alivia again.
Tina nodded and smiled. “Hmm... alright!”
Tiny surprised. There was no way he could be so easily affected by that inducement. Tina has taken the wrong path.
“But...”.
Eh? He hasn't finished talking. So how's the decision?
“But I can't possibly play with a group that already has many friends. I should have approached a child who had no friends. Like Tiny. She has no friends yet and I should have accompanied her!” Tina immediately ran to admire Tiny and held her hand.
“Come we go!” Take Tina.
As her offer was rejected, Alivia grew furious. He can't accept this. Alivia is about to hit Tiny. He swung his hand up and….
BUKS!
“Eh!?” Alivia surprised.
Tiny and Tina were also shocked as they turned around. Because Alivia's punch hit Tino's face!
