The scene this time really shocked the school community until it reached the ears of the teachers. Of course Nusa was immediately taken to the principal's office, along with El as a friend, ah also Reza and Mario who forced their way in with the excuse 'Nusa is also our responsibility, we have to know what happened to her too,' he said saying they were both looking for an excuse.
What they are facing is the vice principal because the principal has official affairs outside the school, so the vice principal is the one who handles this one case.
"Nusa, can you explain to me what happened to you? I'm afraid there will be more victims after this. I don't want this news to spread outside the school, it could worsen the image of Aladard High in society."
Hearing the vice principal named Mrs. Misel, El immediately raised his gaze to look at the woman. "Alright, can we not talk about the negative impact first? That's what makes Nusa afraid to speak and tell the truth," he said in a cold tone that sounded clear.
Oh yes, once again El will speak at length, namely to the teachers.
Mrs. Misel looked at El, she is a firm person but when she knows that something is wrong with her actions, then she will not justify herself or anything like that. "Okay, sorry Nusa. Can you tell me what happened?" She said correcting speech.
For Nusa, yesterday and today are prisons. Why did he say prison? Hey, she was locked up in a very inhuman way by three people she trusted. Haven't they gone too far? What if Nusa has a history of illness such as magh or shortness of breath?
Nusa squeezed her fingers with her other hand, she was afraid that telling the truth would make Priska hate her even more and did you know that someone with a cruel heart hates someone? Surely that person will not stop doing bad things.
El waited for Nusa's answer, as did Mrs. Misel, Reza and Mario. They looked at Nusa, there was restlessness there.
Reza and Mario, who usually do things that act a lot, are now completely silent, appreciating the situation because they can't be filled with jokes.
Exhaling slowly, Nusa who had been looking down immediately lifted her face. "I want to go home," she whispered, alternately gripping the hem of her skirt tightly.
No, that's not what the four of them wanted to hear. However, it is natural that the victim cannot tell stories on the same day because of the possibility of causing her own trauma.
Mrs. Misel nodded her head, she also couldn't force Nusa because she seemed confused about where to start.
El with his initiative immediately grabbed Nusa's hand, then hooked his fingers with the girl's slender fingers. "Come home with me," he said, turning to Nusa. His gaze was still very flat, let alone the tone of his voice was still the same. However, his intentions are like those of an angel who still wants to protect Nusa.
Hearing that, Mario and Reza were happy which meant they could leave school with the direct permission of the vice principal.
"Miss, we also took Nusa to her house. We will also take care of Nusa, we have to look after her and take care of her until her brother comes home." Mario said while maintaining a look on his face so as not to look pleased.
Reza nodded, agreeing with what Mario said. "Yes, ma'am, so it is with a heavy heart that we have to leave school activities to protect Nusa." he said supporting Mario's words.
Hearing the words of the two of them, this time Mrs. Misel shook her head. "Eits, am I really going to let the two of you out of school? You think I don't know if you want to skip school, right?" She answered, rejecting the words of the two teenage boys before her.
"Well, why is that, Miss? You don't believe us?" said Reza while nudging Mario as if telling the man to help.
"Miss, isn't that so—"
"No, you two go back to class or you won't be able to take the graduation exams."
Getting such a threat, who wouldn't be afraid? Even though Reza and Mario were dissidents at other times, that doesn't mean they can cross all boundaries.
Nusa lowered her head again, seeing El's hand gripped very tightly with warmth radiating throughout her body. Lucky to have Bara who can only warm her.
El got up from his seat, then pulled Nusa's hand slowly while helping the girl up.
"Miss, I'm sorry, I want to take Nusa home. For my absence, don't change it to alpha."
"Yes, later I will contact the teacher who teaches in your class."
Nodding briefly, El immediately grabbed Nusa's hand. They had already left the principal's office, and no wonder many students were surprised when he hold hands with Nusa.
"Bara, let go of my hand." said Nusa who started to feel uncomfortable being watched by many people like this just because El was holding her hand.
El looked at Nusa, instead of letting go of his hand, they tightened their grip even more. "Your body is still weak," he replied.
Not understanding El's answer, who for some reason even said he was weak, Nusa raised an eyebrow. "You dreaming?" he asked innocently, his eyes blinking three times.
"You might faint, that's why I held your body by holding your hand."
"Doesn't that include you taking the opportunity to be close to me, Bara?"
"Not."
Finally, after walking along the corridor and being the center of attention of all the students, they were now in the parking lot.
"Wait here." said El while guiding Nusa to sit on the wooden chair that was there.
Nusa had landed her ass on the chair, then raised her head to look at El. "Where are you going again?" She asked.
El let go of their hands, then looked back at Nusa. "I'll get my bag first."
Ah yes, I forgot, even Nusa left her bag with Reza and Mario, which means they are in the same class.
"You want to leave me alone in the parking lot, Bara?"
"You want to come with me?"
"No, I'm quite tired. Then, I'll be waiting for you here."
El didn't understand the girls' way of thinking, so he preferred to just nod. He stared at Nusa for a long time, still guessing what this girl was trying to hide. He knew that Nusa could not tell what had happened to him, but from the look on the girl's face, he could tell the main character behind this rot.
"Rehan got a day off for today?" he asked suddenly.
Hearing that question, Nusa immediately shook his head. "No, Rehan went to work today. Don't you know your employee schedule?"
"Oh, I don't know." El answered briefly.
"So why are you asking about Rehan?" Nusa asked, raising an eyebrow.
El reached out to gently caress the top of Nusa's head. "I'll take care of you at my house."
