Side Story 1 The Coming of Alvan



Today I'm going to get out of the house and live alone in an apartment where my father met. Because I can't go alone my parents sent 2 people to take me to the place.


When the bodyguard arrived there, he put the bell on and a few moments later someone opened the door, but after the door opened the girl closed it again.


Of course after seeing the two people dressed all in black like the mafia would definitely react like that, I already said there was no need to put guards.


Then a few moments later the door was opened again, this time a different person opened it, but the expression and action were almost the same.


“Sorry to interrupt, is this really Amalia's mother's house?”


“I drove young master to rent an apartment here ?”


“Ah son of a friend father yes?, if so let's go first into not nice chatting here.”


We followed him into the house.


------------------------------------


We were sitting in the living room, in front of me were two women whom I first saw.They were aunt Amalia the wife of my father's friend and beside it Arin the son of them both.


Arin still wears school clothes, the girl has long hair and has a good posture, she does not realize it but she is quite famous at school with various nicknames. the most famous among boys is “Queen Es”.


After school, many men tried to get him to talk, but not considered by him. I thought it was just the guy she was ignoring, but as the girls chatted, the same response came out of her. With a face that didn't care she ignored everything. From there he got the nickname and famous among men because of the cold attitude that looks elegant.


“Alvan yes, most popular guy in school.  One of the existing 6 S-rated Espers, I'm Arin.”


After speaking the girl stood up and left the living room,


“Sorry yes, over the disrespect of the mother's son.”


“It's okay aunt, the uncle has already explained a little situation.”


Before coming here, uncle called me and explained a little about the nature of his son.


“Alvan sorry but later, if uncle's son is a bit impolite to you, please forgive ya. a lot of things happened now he became rather cold to others.”


“Good, my uncle understands.”


I don't know what happened to him and don't dare to ask further because it would be impolite, since there must be a cause, maybe slowly I will find out after getting acquainted with him.


Aunt Amalia drove me to the apartment.I occupy room number 7, if this room is compared to my room, the size is three times this room. Even so, just once I wanted to stay in a simple place like this.


------------------------------------


The next day at school, as usual I was with my friends gathered in the school garden when the break began. This time I saw an unusual sight, Arin was eating together and chatting with two girls. They were busy chatting and and joking together this was an expression I had never seen until now. Because from the beginning of school he was very indifferent and never chatted with others.


------------------------------------


In the afternoon at the apartment I got a message that one of my friends had entered the hospital, because I rushed out of the room and locked the door.


when going down the stairs, from the 2nd floor I saw Arin talking to a man who seemed to be the occupant of this apartment, his expression looked the same while he was at school, different from his usual one.


After that I went downstairs and met the two on the 1st floor. It seems like he will distribute fruits to the residents.I am also acquainted with Haqi. As usual Arin was very cold to me and went towards the 3rd floor, because of the urgent situation I rushed to the hospital.


------------------------------------


At the hospital some of my friends had gathered, and he said he was attacked by someone and had various wounds on his body. And it turns out that there are some students in this hospital with similar circumstances.


In the evening I headed to room 4, where Haqi's room was and pressed the bell. Then he came out of the room with a plastic bag and gave it to me.


“Yo.. It fetch !”


“Still to, sorry ngerpotin.”


“Haha gapapa, and do not be polite so call aja Haqi.”


“But it's not polite”


She was rather embarrassed to answer it.


“What's wrong anyway I don't care about calling haha.”


“Good, if you'll excuse me.”


“Wait.”


As Alvan turned to return to the room he was stopped .


“On this afternoon Arin was not polite to you, sorryin ya.”


Haqi scratched his back head with his right hand and his left foot tapping the floor slowly.


“Tante and uncle explained a little about it, so it doesn't matter ko.”


“…….”


“Arin used to be nothing like that, I've been here for 5 years so have known for a long time, he used to be nothing like that.


A smile was seen as Haqi spoke of the Girl.


“A cheerful girl who is friendly to everyone.”


“…….”


“IF NOT BECAUSE OF THAT INCIDENT. “


Haqi suddenly raised his tone, clenched his hands and made an extremely frightening angry expression.


Alvan was surprised to see that and he slightly took a step back.


“If only I was stronger then, it might be.”


Then in a rather low tone Alvan asked


“The incident ?.”


“Ahh.. sorry sorry, just forget what I said earlier, see you.”


He looked agitated and tried to divert the conversation, then returned to the room and closed the door.


The bewildered Alvan returned to his room and thought of the awkward conversation inside him.


(That once was friendly huh?, looking at him now, it seems like it was a lie.)


He breathed and put the fruit in the fridge.


“Huh, actually what happened.”


------------------------------------


The next day before I left for school the apartment bell rang.


Ting, tong's….


When I opened the door there stood aunty Amalia who looked soybean. Maybe he ran towards my room in a big hurry.


“Excuse Alvan.”


“Oh aunt, what's the matter early in the morning like this.”


“Ituu.. aunt has a request for you.”


“If that's all I can do, I'll be happy to help.”


“Can't please take care of Arin later after school.”


“Can you, but why aunt ?.”


“So morning there was news that some school children from West High School were attacked, so can not guard Arin.”


“So it's in the news yes, my friend also became his victim and is being treated.”


“Alvan Rank S right and very strong, so if you can aunt please protect Arin who does not have the power.”


With a very sad expression Amalia asked for it.


“Tante is afraid something will happen again to Arin.”


While bowing his body he pleaded.


I was surprised by the expression of Aunt Amalia, she even bowed her body to me. Even though I don't know what happened to Arin, but seeing the people around him like this, I think he has gone through various problems.


“Both aunt do not have to beg like that, besides father and uncle are very close friends, and I also troublesome aunt family by staying here.”


With a sincere smile he replied. Holding Amalia's shoulder to make her stop slouching.


“Still yes.”


While wiping off a few tears with her hand Amalia thanked him and returned to her home.


“Seeing aunt's expression this morning, and ka Haqi last night, I'm getting penasran”


I went into my room and got my bag, and went to school.


(But with her current nature, it seems like I have to follow her secretly. I'll investigate what happened to Arin later.)
