Beautiful morning, the sun shines brightly, the morning dew still clings to the foliage. Flowers blooming. Elizabeth had already completed the task that her mother had charged her. Providing a better life for the whole house. Food was ready at the table, bread and jam, that was all Elizabeth could prepare, Elizabeth was not a girl who was good at cooking, but her efforts made those who knew her also amazed.
Today is the last day she entered school, after graduation and the announcement then Elizabeth is obliged to invite the guardian that is one of the family members. It's only just to convey the invitation and prepare the clothes that will be worn later.
Elizabeth came out of her cramped room, wearing a seedy uniform and worn shoes, down the stairs in a small run. Luci looked at him in annoyance.
"What a girl deserves to run down the stairs. Why don't you just fall and you die, so as not to embarrass all family members." Luci.
Elizabeth stops him from arriving, she doesn't even believe what Luci told her. His parents would rather die, isn't this progress? Progress to hurt him more.
Elizabeth did not dare to step her foot, waiting for Luci to pass through it even though there were four more steps she reached the bottom floor, Luci passed through her with eyes that were still intimidating, intimidating, suddenly Luci swung his hand and pushed Elizabeth forward, a movement like this could not be anticipated by Elizabeth, she fell rolling.
The dug dug dug. The sound of the head hitting on the wood-plated floor.
"Ohhh."
It was the only sound that came out of Elizabeth's mouth, ignoring her Luci opened the door and entered Eva's room. Miraculously Elizabeth did not feel any pain, she immediately stood up and ran out the door. Though fresh blood came out of his forehead, not too much, it was just that the blood was dirtying the school uniform he wore.
The hands and knees also in other parts look bruised blue. Elizabeth ran towards the gate of her house, a handsome man staring not far from her place. The slum girl ran towards the school but her hand was restrained by someone.
"Kendrick."
Kendrick pulled out a white handkerchief from her pouch, rubbing the wound on Elizabeth's forehead.
"You can't go to school like this."
"It's okay, not long after, today is the last day I go to school. Next week graduation and celebration."
With his mouth open gaping Kendrick as if he could not believe a woman could stand the situation like that. Moreover, the fishy smell of blood smelled up to Kendrick's nose. Either in his heart arise concern and pity or start to feel interested.
The two walk together actually the school is not how far it is just the time that hunt Elizabeth he was forced to take a city bus. Kendrick let Elizabeth enter the school gate, saw Elizabeth who became a laughing stock friend Kendrick's heart was very sick, whether this feeling just arose. Kendrick saw it from a distance. He even has the determination to find out who Elizabeth really is, whether she is a maid in the nice house or one of the children of the owner of the mansion.
Kendrick didn't leave Elizabeth's school - she still stood by the gate, she wanted to protect the girl who had saved her. Grateful his mind is still clear, only today Elizabeth entered school, in the future he made sure he would change the appearance of the girl so as not to be an insult again.
Kendrick walked to the diner not far from Elizabeth's school, still less than four hours away from completing her exams. If only he could do a lot and help her wouldn't the girl deserve to be his close friend. Kendrick is tired of being close to beautiful women, thick powder and various accessories that are worn by women. He wants to have a good woman like his mother, Kendrick still thinks his mother is good, his mind just revolves like that. Even Matheo is tired of reminding Kendrick that a woman who can throw away her flesh and blood for the sake of men is not a good woman. Such remarks often make the two clash their mouths and even end up in a mess on Matheo.
The table in place was full of several drinks that had been ordered, even the contents were completely empty. Kendrick really doesn't know what he's doing, waiting for a slum girl to come home! The time has come when the bell rings twice. The students began to walk in a line towards the gate. Kendrick extended her neck several times, looking and seeing where Elizabeth was. Seen some teenage boys and girls who wear middle school uniforms laugh loosely. They surrounded a woman he knew. He knew it was the woman he was waiting for. Kendrick was really upset when he saw Elizabeth being hugged by them at the gate, they bully Elizabeth, Kendrick's blood was getting hot, he approached the teenager who bullied Elizabeth.
"Go!"
Kendrick's voice was so loud, with her beautiful eyes Kendrick widened her eyes to the mob and she hugged Elizabeth and then pulled her away. Some teenagers were amazed, how could the ugly have a handsome man even love him. From the look of his eyes and his treatment. The uniformed teenager did not dare to argue anymore. They know Kendrick, a thug who rules the suburbs. Of course their hearts are shrinking. Ask what is the relationship between Elizath and the man?
Elizabeth was both happy and embarrassed when her little hand was pulled by Kendrick to stay away from the crowd of friends.
"Don't let yourself be bullied, try to fight." Kendrick said, they have arrived at a restaurant not far from Elizabeth's school.
Kendrick handed Elizabeth the menu.
"I don't eat." Elizabeth doesn't want to trouble Kendrick by ordering food, she knows Kendrick doesn't have more money. Moreover, their condition is the same life difficult, according to Elizabeth.
"Eat, I pay. I got a job today. So you can eat as much."
Elizabeth according to him and ordered one of the cheapest menus, the mainstay menu in this restaurant is Asian menu. Kendrick liked it.
They were involved in talking about the continuation after Elizabeth graduated from school, Actually Elizabet really wanted to continue to the college level, it's just that the money collected from his work has been asked by his mother to help the cost of treating his brother who is in the hospital. The problem of her getting weird, the smile on Elizabeth's face suddenly faded, she couldn't possibly tell it any deeper because after all Elizabeth had just known her. Kendrick was aware of Elizabeth's changing attitude and she tried to shift her conversation.
"What house was yesterday where you lived?"
"You following me?"
"Yes, I'm sorry. I'm just making sure you get to safety."
"Maybe you are astonished by such a house, but it is like this."
"It's not like that. I mean..."
"That's my home, and I'd rather look like this."
Kendrick was quite astonished but tried to hide a sense of curiosity. As they were chatting a loud clap on his shoulders shocked Elizabet. Elizabeth was shocked and her head turned to see who had hugged her.
Eva, Elizabeth was quite panicked, she was afraid that Eva would complain to Luci.
Her fear really did happen and it was true that Eva had photographed herself.
"I'll complain to you with mom."
"Geev! I just eat with my friend."
"Friends? Since when do you have friends? Shabby people hang out with thugs. How fitting of you."
Eva's words made Kendrick's heart growl, her brain heat up. It looks bad but not bad. Another with Elizabeth. Kendrick blocked Eva's neck finger pressing on her respiratory muscles. Kendrick looked at Eva as if looking at trash. His eyes radiate anger.
"Once again you insult my woman, you'll run out in the trash." Kendrick's voice was so echoing.
Even all eyes saw the scene, they still did not want to interfere let alone deal with Kendrick. A man who likes to make noise.
