After getting out of the car of the man who had helped her, Agnese got into the house and rushed to make breakfast for the mother. He also will not miss the habit of feeding Briza painstakingly before leaving for school. Fortunately, the woman did not ask many questions, so she did not have to bother giving the right reasons.
After doing some other small work, Agnese rushed to change clothes and carry the necessities of learning in the bag. While carrying a bag, he said goodbye to Briza and then stepped out of the house. However, he was surprised to see the man's car still parked smoothly right in front of the fence of his house.
Agnese walked up to the man and cleared her throat for a moment to distract the man who was fixed on the cell phone. "You? Why are you still here, sir? Do I owe you anything?" feline Agnese with a confused face.
The man quickly put his phone in his pocket and turned to look at Agnese. He smiled briefly then leaned his back against the car door.
"certain. Didn't you touch my stuff without permission?" Agnese nodded. "Then from that, you have to pay me a debt. I won't ask you for money, but you have to comply with my request. That'sthat's all. Easy, right?"
Agnese seemed to think about the man's words. Steadily, he nodded before the man changed his mind and told him to pay with no small amount of money.
The man smiled again and walked around the car. He went inside and started the engine. While Agnese just flinch outside like a statue that adorns the city.
The car horn in front of Agnese continued to sound to make her look shocked. Shortly after, the car window was lowered and revealed the man with glasses perched on his nose.
"Are you at home standing like a statue of a horse, huh? Come on in, I'll take you to school."
"Ta .. but, I don't want to trouble you, Mr ...." Agnese's words hang a little because she does not know the name of the man, moreover, she has never met him.
"Come in! Later I will tell you what my name is and how I came from down to earth" said the man without looking at Agnese.
Agnese took the time to take a deep breath before getting into the car because she felt very nervous every time she was near the man who had helped her. Nothing happened during the trip, only a heavy sighing sound was heard because one of them was bored with the silence created.
The man lied to her. Agnese convinces herself to come along hoping to find out soon who the man who has helped her is. They were just talking about the school address. The rest, no one makes a sound again until the sound of squeaking tires becomes a marker if they have arrived.
Really am. It feels like Agnese is acting like Squidward Tentacles when Mr. Crab promises a vacation for anyone who manages to memorize the name of every customer who comes to eat at Krusty Crab and Squidward to try to take the wallet of the last customer to know his name.
Ah, forget about that. Currently, Dalton High School is preparing everything needed to welcome the owner of the school foundation who can come at any time. They have also prepared several students to showcase their talents in the presence of the subsidiary owner of a large company, Tomlinson's Group.
Actually without preparing a welcome can be. However, since this was the first time the owner of the school wanted to set foot there, inevitably, all the school residents made a pretty lively welcome to welcome Zach William Tomlinson. Who does not know himself? Because his face and caste are very good, he is known to the corners of the world.
There have been many business competitors who were defeated in the age that have not entered the number three. He also attended school by following the acceleration path because he has a higher intelligence than his peers. And because of that, he was trusted by Andy Tomlinson to take care of the company.
"Hey! Why are you in such a hurry?" Agnese got out of the car after thanking the man. "Little girl!"
Agnese immediately ran after descending regardless of her screams. He felt he had to get away from the man for fear of becoming a victim of pedophilia if he continued with him.
Just like yesterday, today he was again stared at with the mocking gazes of the disciples that passed by. However, it was different from yesterday because the person who looked at him actually tripled than before. He hastened his steps so he could get to class soon. When there are only a few steps left to arrive at the class, someone shouts his name until he has to turn around to be able to look at the person who called him.
"Where have you been, Agnese? Thank goodness I found you here." Joanna caught her breath slightly. "You should hurry to change your clothes, the handsome man had just told the school that he wanted to visit the school today. Hurry, Agnese!"
Agnese. "Handsome guy? Who?"
"Geez, Agnese! The owner of this school foundation!"
Agnese rounded her eyes in surprise. "You're kidding me, right? I should how?"
The look on Agnese's face turned restless. How can the owner of the school foundation come when he is not ready to perform? Why is it all so sudden?
Lord, please take longer.
Not only Agnese, the whole school is in a fog preparing everything that has not been resolved to welcome the unexpected arrival of guests.
After wearing a red dress with a length above the knee, Agnese took a black leather jacket to cover the exposed part of her shoulder. After that, he tidied his hair and smeared his lips with a little lipstick to beautify the look.
Not much was done after that, Agnese just sat backstage while waiting for her turn to perform. From there, he could hear the applause outside. His heartbeat was very fast because he felt very nervous to appear in front of important people.
While playing a finger, he bit his lower lip to reduce his nervousness. However, at the same time, he heard someone calling his name from outside. He stood up and repeatedly took a deep breath. He walked slowly and kept his head down while riding the stage. After that, he sat in a chair that had been provided to support his performance later by playing the piano.
Before starting, Agnese unplugged the microphone that had been attached to the mic stand. He took a deep breath and smiled and began to introduce himself. After that, he put the microphone back in place.
Cleverly, Agnese's fingers pressed one by one piano keys to produce a tone that was very heartwarming. Soon, he began to sing to attract the attention of many people, including the owner of the foundation who sang a smile when he heard the chants and songs sung by Agnese.
Seems like it was yesterday when I saw your face
You told me how proud you were, but I walked away
If only I know what I know today, ooh, ooh
I would hold you in my arms, I would take the pain away
Thank you for all you've done, forgive all your mistakes
Sometimes I wanna call you but I know you won't be there
Oh, I'm sorry for blaming you
For everything I just couldn't do
And I've hurt myself by hurting you
Some days I feel broke inside but I won't admit
Sometimes I just wanna hide 'cause it's you I miss
And it's so hard to say goodbye when it comes to this, ooh
Would you tell me I was wrong? Would you help me understand?
Are you looking down upon me? Are you proud of who I am?
There's nothing I would't do to have just one more chance
To look into your eyes and see you looking back
Agnese exhaled a long breath and tried to hold back the tears. He looked towards the friend who had been shouting words that encouraged him.
Oh, I'm sorry for blaming you
For everything I just couldn't do
And I've hurt myself by hurting you
If I had just one more day
I would tell you how much that I've missed you
Since you've been away
Oh, it's dangerous
It's so out of line
Try and turn back time
Oh, I'm sorry for blaming you
For everything I just couldn't do
And I've hurt myself by hurting you
Unwittingly, Agnese shed tears despite trying to hold him back while singing the song popularized by Cristina Aguilera. However, crying cannot affect her appearance. He continued to sing while remembering some memories with his father who had left him and Briza.
"Lumayan," said someone as Agnese finished singing.
Continuing to bow, Agnese bowed and thanked him before stepping off the stage. He ran as fast as he could. Crying out. That is what can be done when returning to recall memories after memories that are twisted in his head like a cassette that plays a film with a very neat groove.
There was not much to do but go alone to hide the wound. Not because he was ashamed to be seen crying. Nope. He just does not want if people who see him sad will feel sorry. He did not want to look weak in front of anyone, not least the mother, Briza.
If given a special power, he would definitely ask that the time where his hero went far could return. He wiped away the trace of tears with his hand and then let out a long sigh. Look, his eyes are a little puffy from crying over something that's never coming back.
Agnese washed her face to make it look fresher. He took a deep breath before coming out of the bathroom. However, when he opened the door, someone suddenly pushed him to touch the wall. He closed his eyes in fear that it was a ghost who kidnapped him.
"Your voice is good as well."
Agnese's tongue complained at the sound. Slowly, he opened his eyes and was shocked to find out who it was. "You? What are you doing here?"
"Meet you."
Without wanting to reply to the man's words, Agnese rolled her eyes lazily and then tried to release the burly arm that locked her against the wall. However, she was still a girl whose strength could not be equated with that man's strength.
Agnese could feel the roar of breath hitting her face. The smell of mint mixed with something familiar, he continued to breathe every one of them sigh. He realized that the distance between them was only a few inches, even he could see if the person moved his head.
Agnese felt something cold clinging to her lips. He can't do anything, even his feet feel like jelly. As soon as the object was removed, he was exhausted from feeling his legs anymore. He looked back and remembered what had happened a few seconds ago to him.
