THE PERFECT TIME TO DIE

(30 CHAPTERS) PINOCCHIO

PINOCCHIO

Before we met Mr. Rifaldi, we both devised a strategy to launch our plans. Mr. Rifaldi is our school security guard, he is commonly called Babeh by the students in our school. He has worked for over 10 years at our school.

“I'm coming in, and copy that cctv video, I'll pretend to want to cuss.” Said Keira.

“Means, I gave Babeh.” attention I said.

“While, Babeh who?” Ask Keira with a bangtung.

“That's Mr. Rifaldi, Our security.” My answer.

“Oh ok.” Keira said with a smile.

I then took a pack of cigarettes in the bag, which later, I will give it to Mr. Rifaldi to facilitate my plan. I've always had a supply of cigarettes in my bag, and I hope Mr. Rifaldi's cigarettes are the same as mine.

“You want to smoke?” Ask Keira.

“This is for Mr. Rifaldi.” My answer.

Keira then looked at me cynically, I was a little stunned after seeing her gaze.

“This is the last time you bring a cigarette to school, I don't want it because of that, you have a problem.” Threaten Keira.

“Iya.” My answer.

“Teddy wait for cave retaliation, if the cave can not be the head of OSIS, you also can not.” Keira said muttering to herself.

Hearing that, I felt a little guilty towards Keira. Because of me, he had to give up his dream of becoming the Chairman of OSIS and he had to give up his popularity and become a regular student at school.

But I promise, I will repay him and make his world more alive when I am with him. We began to move to do our plan, the plan is Keira into the teacher room by pretending to collect assignments and copy CCTV video files on Mr. Rusman's computer.

Mr. Rusman is a BK teacher at our school, while I will keep Mr. Rifaldi busy and careless in front of the teacher's room by inviting him to chat.

After getting a persuasion from Keira and receiving a bribe a pack of cigarettes from me. Mr. Rifaldi was finally destroyed, Keira added to Mr. Rifaldi if he did not collect his duties today, he would not go to class. And because of that, Mr. Rifaldi was finally willing to open a locked teacher room for us.

Silently, Keira and I cheered happily, and the three of us walked into the teacher's room. After arriving at the door of the teacher's room, before long Mr. Rifaldi also took a stack of keys from his pants pocket.

Mr. Rifaldi also immediately found the key because in our school, only a few rooms are in the lock, the rooms include teacher's room, chemistry lab, physics lab, computer lab, and so on, the gym room while the classroom is not in the lock.

"Don't be long!” Pinta Pak Rifaldi's.

Keira rushed in with a book of hers, I just stared anxiously at her. And hopefully this plan goes as smoothly as we hoped, and we can avenge ourselves to Teddy. After Keira came in, Rifaldi just looked at me.

"Aren't you in for cuddling?” Ask Mr. Rifaldi.

"I'm different class beh, I'm here aja nemenin Babeh.” My answer.

After that brief chat, silence was at the place where we both stood. I also as soon as possible to spur my brain to find a topic that is right and suitable for Mr. Rifaldi.

I began to observe Mr. Rifaldi, from the tip of his foot to his head. Looking for a gap, but I could not find the gap and find the right chat, because once again I lay about this.

Just staring awkwardly at each other, I just wish Keira could quickly finish her task. I saw Mr. Rifaldi was starting to be impatient and continued to look at the watch he was wearing.

Mr. Rifaldi also began to look suspiciously at me because Keira did not come out, cold sweat began to flood my forehead. And Mr. Rifaldi's patience was exhausted, he then looked at his watch and wanted to move in. Seeing that I reflexively held his hand, I made him even more suspicious.

“Pak, like football?” I asked randomly while holding Mr. Rifaldi.

Mr. Rifaldi just silently looked at me, before long he let go of his hand. And looking seriously at me, on the other hand I just gulped my saliva. My heart was beating fast, and my sweat began to wash all over me.

Deceiving and pretending to be deceived is nothing new in my life. Because all this time, I've been doing well. Sometimes, though, I get overwhelmed by it. I wear a mask in my life. A mask I made in such a way, to hide my true face. Too busy putting on makeup, and I forgot my real color. Nothing else, just to get them to feel comfortable if they're near me.

And countless, how many masks have I used to deceive them. I deceived all of them, even though in truth, I was the one who had deceived myself. It was so stupid that I cursed myself so much. But I kept trying to make peace for it, because everyone would.

Until one day, a woman came into my life. A woman is selfish, rude and arrogant, yet what it is. He's been ruining opinions that have been lodged in my brain all along. That, no matter, that people hate you in authenticity. Never live by the thoughts of others, and live for yourself.

And we are all different, so don't judge and try to understand. And after meeting her, I can take off that mask. And I'm back to being myself. But it seems like this time, it seems like I have to use my old mask.

I just looked at Mr. Rifaldi, and kept saying a prayer. My prayers are only two, the first is that he may not be suspicious. The second was that Keira was able to get out quickly and her plan worked. Before long Mr. Rifaldi approached and aligned his gaze towards me, trembling as I received that gaze.

“Like dong, last night Real Madrid won right?” Answer Mr. Rifaldi.

The look on Rifaldi's face immediately turned into a smile, and I was relieved to see it. After that, he long raved about a lot of things about football. Although I don't know much about football, I like it because he won't be suspicious anymore.

Before long Keira came out and knit a smile on these lips, even though I didn't know the plan worked or not. But I was relieved and not so much hoping the plan would work.

Although I really want to avenge me, but most importantly Keira was not caught by Mr. Rifaldi, and did not get into trouble. After Keira came out, we both thanked Mr. Rifaldi, and Mr. Rifaldi immediately locked the room. Because it was so late at night, I saw the clock was showing at 8 p.m. And I drove Keira home.
