Tiara: Queen of Boulevard
#100 Challenging the Tiara
Tiara opened the door and the two entered the room. From a distance Tiara's eyes were immediately fixed on Herlin. Unlike before Herlin was busy with paperwork without seeing Tiara's arrival, this time he greeted Tiara with a smile straight from his seat.
"Hi, Tiara." Her broom was full of warmth as Tiara approached her.
"Hi, Miss Herlin." Replied Tiara who was not smiling at all.
"Your scholarship has been disbursed and stayed in the transfer only but I want to make sure once again if only you still want to change your mind." He further explained his purpose of summoning Tiara.
"I haven't changed my mind, Mom." Tiara's answer remained on his consistency.
Hearing Tiara's reply, Herlin was a little surprised and handed her a map containing the names of the orphanage that Tiara had asked her for.
"Thank you ma'am for helping me." Tiara was satisfied to see what Herlin had given her.
"Either. That's all it is. You can go back to class and wait for the money in your account." Herlin.
"alright. Thanks again."
Tiara too Luka finally left there and returned to their classroom.
-----
Teaching and learning activities ended just like that after the clang of the school bell rang. Tiara and Alda approach Lia in Class C and pick up Abie who is in Class D.
On their way home, Tiara and the others accidentally meet Monica as well as her two friends who are always loyal to be beside her.
Every time he came face to face with Monica, Tiara always wondered in her heart, why had she never seen Stacy with them? Stacy is in a gang with Monica as Michelle tells her, but Tiara sees only the three of them without Stacy. Except for Nancy the chairman who is on leave doing a photo shoot.
"Look at the girls who we met." Monica's tone rose while her eyes looked at Tiara.
Seeing Monica's appearance, Lia and Alda immediately showed their dislike making Abie confused at the tension.
"Enak yes, just because it comes from a wealthy family, can be as good as getting a perfect score. What else gets the title as the next genius Boulevar." Lydia. The person who had been silent behind Monica finally opened his voice.
Lydia's eyes stared intently at Tiara from behind the lensed glass she was wearing, as if to say that her words were indeed reserved for Tiara.
Lia, Alda and Abie soon realize that Lydia is insinuating their best friend Tiara. But they did not understand why Lydia was still talking about it considering that all students had known the truth of the chain message sent to their mobile numbers.
"What do you mean, sister talks like that?" Alda's question was annoyed to feel that Tiara was not accepted by Lydia.
"You ask what I mean? Haha, after knowing someone cheated to get into Boulevar, you still ask about that?"
"Tiara's not cheating." Lia quickly hears Lydia accusing Tiara of cheating.
"Yes. There's a buk,.."
"Stop." Tiara refuted Abie's words.
"Tiara why? Let us help you tell the truth so they all know and don't talk about you." Alda.
"Yes Alda is right. They refuse to accept the truth when it is already there,.."
"Have it stopped." Tiara rebutted again on Abie's words.
Tiara does not want her three best friends to help her, only Tiara does not tell them the truth if she excludes Stacy and his gang members in sending chain messages, other than Cassan of course.
Tiara deliberately did so in order to see their response but she also had time to suspect that there was a high chance that Stacy and her gang members would find out the truth from the other students given the furore happened at that time. But who would have thought if until now, the three of them did not know at all.
"Why? Are you admitting that you cheated?" Lydia asked Tiara who did not refute her words.
"If I cheated, what would you do to me?" Tiara asked.
Because of Tiara's question, all of them looked surprised at her. Lia, Alda and Abie are confused as to why Tiara is saying that but not Lydia and her two best friends. They look happy and enjoy.
"Oh so now you confess if you cheat?" Ask Lydia to pass.
"When did I confess? What did my previous sentence say that I was cheating? As I remember not." Tiara answered as she walked closer to Lydia.
"What I said; IF I cheated, what would you do to me." He continued coldly while staring intently at Lydia who was now nailing realizing her carelessness.
BANGGGO
As if in a sting of high-voltage electric current, Lydia froze in disbelief if Tiara knew what she was doing.
During their conversation, Lydia was recording Tiara's words using her phone. He thought if he kept on luring Tiara with a cornered question and Tiara admitted his actions then it was certain that the tape would be the end of Tiara's life on Boulevard. But who would have thought if in the end the plan failed miserably.
Re-awakened from her shock, Lydia looked at Tiara with embarrassment. He thinks his intelligence is everything. Upon realizing that Tiara knew his plan, he felt that Tiara was humiliating him.
"How is senior brother, am I wrong?" Tiara Tanya who impressed bersedek when heard by Lydia's ears.
"Whatever you say, that must be in everyone's eyes you're cheating." Lydia replied upset.
"Mm, not everyone. Only my brother and sister considered me cheating. If not why do the students even the teachers look calm?"
"Yes, they're quiet because your parents paid them with money, right?" Lydia was consumed with emotion by the words Tiara. He did not know why the school had not yet taken action against Tiara regarding the fraud committed by him, but he certainly believed that Tiara's parents had contributed to it.
"Haha.." Instantly Lia, Alda and Abie laugh funny at Lydia. They didn't expect Lydia's thinking to be so narrow.
"Money? Try asking everyone here, have they ever received money from Tiara or from both parents? Please ask. If anyone claims yes then he'll deal with us." Answer Alda.
"We'll get it done legally." Connect Abie.
"That bill and most of its fate will be the same as Cassan, not accepted in any school in this country." Added Lia.
Hearing all that, Lydia finally spoke up to maintain her pride. "How about we bet. I challenge you to compete on the latest Boulevar issues." Say it firmly.
Lydia's words suddenly startled everyone, but not Tiara. This is what he has been waiting for since. Compared to Monica, Tiara prefers to play with Lydia who is a nerd.
Just by looking at Lydia's appearance alone, Tiara could already guess if Lydia didn't like people cheating in lessons. Therefore, with the circulation of the video uploaded by Cassan coupled with a chain message that he deliberately did not forward to them of course cause this to happen.
"Okay I agree." Tiara replied without thinking.
"What's? Wait wait wait wait." Alda interrupted. "Tiara, are you serious? This is not fair to you. He's old anyway."
Hearing herself being called old, Lydia immediately drew a sharp look at Alda.
"Sorrys sorry. I mean he's a senior and you're just a new student. Your knowledge of the lessons on Boulevard is definitely much different. So it's not fair to you." Alda.
"It's Al, I don't have a problem with that. Trust me." Tiara whispered. Then set her sights on Lydia, "we're going to compete on second grade lessons, instead I'm given a week from now to learn all her subjects."
Surprised that everyone is back. How not, Tiara asked to compete not on first-class or other general lessons but second-class lessons, which he himself still did not learn.
"Are you serious?" Lydia asked to reassure her hearing.
"Yes, I'm serious." Answer Tiara.
'Haha.. This tiara is stupid or what? He thought all the second grade lessons he could understand in just one week?' The inner Lydia mocked Tiara.
"Agreed." Lydia answered haughtily. He felt that victory was in his hands because after all Tiara's words were an advantage for him considering the second class lesson he had just passed.
Tiara immediately smiled happily at the approval coming from Lydia. He deliberately made the second grade lessons as their competition material because he had his own reasons.
First, if he manages to get a higher score than Lydia then it will benefit him. Other than people believing that he deserves to get a perfect score, he can also humiliate Lydia in front of everyone.
Second, if Lydia gets a higher score than him then it still does not harm or embarrass him. Because what? Because everyone knows that Tiara only learned all of that in one week. Unlike the case with Lydia who has passed one year there.
Sweetheart Lydia didn't think it was there. He was carried away by his emotions and agreed to Tiara's words without thinking.
"But this is a bet as you mentioned earlier. It means someone has to be sacrificed." Tiara's cold speech made Lydia dumbfounded.
He finally thought about what he had to sacrifice but when his eyes saw Tiara acting smart before him, he finally decided to remove Tiara from Boulevard.
"For the loser will resign willingly from Boulevar." Lydia said she was confident that she would get rid of Tiara from school.
"Goodle. Agree." Answer Tiara.
