The End of Promise
5. A New Student

5. A New Student

These elite people think they are controlling the world, when in reality they are the ones being controlled.

When he closed his eyes, the image of the woman who was always with him always appeared in his mind. He saw the woman sitting with him, holding his hand, it felt as if she was now in front of him. Slowly he opened his eyes in the hope that it would come true. But the first thing he saw as soon as he opened his eyes, there was only a woman wearing a school uniform who was quite unfamiliar to him, standing confused.

Accidentally their eyes met and the woman walked over to Yusuf. If you look closely, the woman is clutching five or six textbooks to her chest, her hair is yellow with exotic skin, she doesn't seem to be someone from this country. Maybe not from this continent.

"Excuse me!" Who is this woman so softly, of course she also speaks English. "Can you tell me where the Principal's room is?"

"Of course." Yusuf pointed to a hallway, of course he also spoke to the woman in the same language. "Go that way, then turn right the first time you find an intersection!"

The woman smiled broadly, "Thank you!" she said then immediately walked away. At the same time the woman left, Yusuf also immediately got up from his seat to immediately go to class, because soon the first lesson bell would ring.

"Suf!" said Joni who was now sitting next to him. "Have you seen the message sent by Jaka?"

"Which message? He hasn't sent me any messages since yesterday." Yusuf turned on his cell phone screen to show Joni that there was no message from Jaka, but it turned out there was an unread message from Jaka. Since yesterday it seems like he forgot to turn his cell phone notifications back on. "Ah right, sorry, I didn't have time to read it."

"What do you think?" Joni asked Yusuf who was focused on reading the message from Jaka.

"Can't he stop doing stupid things like this and just live in peace?" he frowned. "He's still very young, he should enjoy his life more."

"How else, for someone like Jaka who was born in an environment like that, like it or not, he has to keep doing things that you call stupid. That circle of hell full of blood, he has to keep doing it until the end of his life for the welfare of his grandmother and little sister." Joni picked her nose, she took out several books and stationery from her school bag. "I also probably would have ended up like that if I hadn't met you at that time. That was a moment where my mind and heart were very confused."

Yusuf looked at Joni who was writing, his closeness to Amel made him more active in studying. "I'm sorry because there was nothing I could do to save your mother. If I had been quicker to provide first aid, maybe now you could still be enjoying a pleasant life with your mother." Her eyes filled with tears, she really understood how it felt to lose someone she loved.

"Yeah, don't think too much about it. I am very grateful for your concern."

"I may have never lived with my parents, but I have lived with my grandmother, she raised me alone. Even though we only have enough, I feel very happy because I can feel the warmth that I never had."

"We both had beautiful lives in the past. That's probably why God brought us together, people who are struggling against feelings of silence in their lives." Their eyes met and they laughed out loud making noise in the class, the people around them looked at them with astonished faces.

"I never thought such good words would come from someone like you."

"I may not be as smart as you, but I can understand human nature. Isn't that what you always taught me before?"

Hearing this, Yusuf just laughed a little. No one can get out of that sad circle, but there is definitely a loophole for those who always try, and of the many loopholes, there is only one definite loophole that Jaka can do, disappear from them all. Just like what Yusuf did to disappear from the world.

"Oh yes, thank you for saving Amel from kidnapping yesterday. Again, I am in your debt."

"No need to think about it, I just did what I could to help. Amel is also my friend, so I should have done that."

"Yesterday Brother Amel called me, and I tried to look in every corner of this city anxiously. If it weren't for you, I wouldn't know what else to do." Joni smiled. "She is very precious to me, she is everything to me. She is my morning sun, and she is my sleeping moon."

Yusuf turned his gaze to the table where Amel could sit, "Is she not going to school now?" he asked. "Is she okay?"

"Yes, when I met her yesterday, she was fine. But maybe she was still shocked by what happened to her, and it's also possible that her family told her to rest first."

For a child from a prominent family, Amel should not roam freely until the atmosphere is conducive again. Yusuf also thought that what happened to Amel yesterday would be the trigger for the next problem. Even though the cause of this incident was none other than his own doing, he was sure that Andrew also did this to lure Darman out.

As far as he knew Darman, Darman used to be a typical person who was frontal, cruel and indiscriminate. If someone dared to mess with his group, Darman would immediately step in to finish off the person who dared to mess with him, that was the reason for his downfall and maybe Andrew also hoped that kidnapping his child would make Darman come out of his nest.

In fact, yesterday Yusuf didn't want to intervene directly, for him now there is not a single human being who is worthy of being called a friend, in fact he doesn't even consider a single human being to be a friend. It's true what Alice said, humans to him are nothing more than chess pieces that he can easily replace when they become useless, but he has to step in directly and sacrifice her existence for no other reason than to ensure that the plans he has made carefully are not damaged.

At the same time as the first lesson bell rang, a teacher entered the classroom along with a woman he had met earlier in the school garden. Her exotic skin and bun hairstyle successfully conquered the hearts of all the men in the class, the men cheered happily as if celebrating something.

"Children, from now on you will have new friends. Her name is Chelsea, she moved from the UK, and she still has Indonesian blood from her grandfather." The teacher explained little things about the new student. "Please tell your new friends about you!"

The new student named Chelsea smiled, the index fingers on both hands interlocked in front of her body, "Friends, my name is Chelsea Tsabina, you can call me Chelsea, I also like playing and listening to music. As the teacher said, I previously transferred from one of the schools in the UK," she explained, she said it in English which was then translated by the teacher so that all the students understood what she said.

After a brief introduction, the teacher asked Chelsea to immediately sit in a chair which was located right next to Yusuf. It was the same place where Amel always sat there. Then, after that they immediately started learning as usual.

During break time, Yusuf and Joni sat at one of the tables in the canteen, eating heavy food to replenish their energy. Unlike Joni who was so greedy, Yusuf just twirled his spoon while thinking about Chelsea, who he thought was in a relationship with someone he knew. He felt like he had heard the last name Tsabina somewhere.

"It's crazy, there are people from outside our country who want to study in this country," said Joni while drinking him avocado juice.

"So what?" Yusuf asked, a little surprised, what's wrong with foreigners studying in this country? isn't that their right?

"If you've lived in this country for a long time, you should already know what the problems are."
