Sinta and Sindy's reflexes took a step back, keeping their distance from Aiko. The two of them then approached Viola. Looking for any reason to take Viola away from Aiko.
"Vio, we have to go now. The professor is looking for us." Invite Sinta.
"Yes, that's right. The professor also messaged me." Cindy reassured.
"But …"
"Come on, can't wait any longer. The professor can give us a bad grade. Hurry up!" Sinta convinced Viola using eye signals.
"Viola..." Kevin was disappointed to see Viola leave. Wanted to stop it but Kevin had no right to it.
Aiko was relieved to see Viola and her friend leave. Her efforts were not in vain. The bullies have been removed.
"Hey, let's go to class. The professor will be here soon."
"You're right, we can't be late. He's very cruel to undisciplined students."
Meanwhile, Viola was taken to safety. Away from the crowd. The three of them were on the emergency stairs.
"Stop it!" Viola waved Sindy's hand which was still holding it tightly.
Sindy and Sinta looked around, making sure that they had managed to bring Viola to a safe place.
"What are you guys doing? You guys are troublemakers."
"Shhh… keep your voice down." Sinta reminded.
"Don't piss me off. Why did you pull me here? You make Kevin think strangely about me."
"Listen, you should know about this. That girl isn't normal." Whispered Sinta.
"Right, she's weird and dangerous."
"What are you guys saying? Don't say anything carelessly. Who do you mean?" Viola scoffed.
"Seriously. We were electrocuted earlier trying to stop him. She was trying to annoy you and Kevin."
"Wait, electrocuted? Say it clearly."
"Looks like she's not an ordinary human. She must have superpowers." Sindy said with a serious face.
"Ridiculous. There's no such thing in this world. Well, although technology has advanced a lot these days." Viola still denied it.
"Vio, your father is the owner of a robotic research company. What if you ask him. Maybe your father knows something. Is there a special device created to protect oneself from harm. Some kind of device that can generate electricity, as Aiko did to us. You have to find out about this."
"What are you trying to say? Don't say anything weird."
"I'm not lying. She did that just now. Could it be that Aiko used some kind of advanced device to protect herself? I've investigated Aiko's identity but found nothing. She's very mysterious. We don't even know if she comes from a rich family or not. There must be a reason. behind the closeness of Aiko and Kevin. Oh, there's one big piece of news."
"Say."
"Kevin isn't a new student. He's been on this campus for a long time. Kevin is a lowly young man who's been chasing you. He's the loser."
"I don't understand. Say it clearly." Viola couldn't wait.
"A loser in a plaid shirt and thick glasses. A nerd. We stumbled across some photos that accidentally captured a picture of Kevin the loser. All the attributes that he usually wears are the same as those attached to the body of Kevin, a handsome man who is an idol on campus." Sinta.
"What?!" Viola's eyes widened. "Euww… No. This sucks. No way. The things that losers used are easy to get. It just so happens that they have the same clothes."
Viola looks so annoyed. She did not expect, the young man she had hated all this time had turned into a young man whose good looks had blinded her eyes. Moreover, her heart has started to like Kevin. Her ambition to get Kevin's heart is already embedded there.
"Wait, if handsome Kevin is the same person, that is Kevin the nerd. It makes more sense if I can't find Aiko's identity."
"I don't understand what you're saying."
"Me too." Sindy.
"Kevin the nerd has another nickname, he is a genius. He likes science. Maybe, Aiko is his creation. Aiko's attitude is weird after all. She looks a little different. I met a human who could give off electricity."
"You've been watching too many Fantasy movies. Your mind's going crazy."
"I'm serious Vio. Aiko's attitude is very similar to characters in fantasy films I've seen."
"Dreaming. Forget about him. I have to go shopping now. My mood needs to be improved."
"Shopping? We're coming." Sinta and Sindy said at the same time.
"Do whatever you like."
The three of them headed to the parking lot, got into Sinta's car. Sinta is quite rich, she is the daughter of an officer of the state. While Sindy is the daughter of a mayor.
"Vio, do you still want Kevin after knowing his real identity?" Asked Sindy who was still curious.
"Stop! You're making my mood worse. Sinta, stop the car." Viola immediately got out of the car and stopped the taxi that passed in front of her.
"Look. You made him mad." Sita complained. She immediately got off and managed to stop Viola from getting into the taxi.
"Vio, don't be angry. Sindy didn't mean to."
"Let me go."
"Where are you going?"
"I want to meet my father. I will prove if the information you provide is wrong. Aiko is only human. My father must know what kind of robot his company has produced. I can ask how to recognize assistant robots."
"I will keep you company."
"No. You're having fun with that annoying Sindy." Viola threw Sinta's hand away, then got into the taxi which she managed to stop.
"Vio, Viola. Wait."
Sinta could not stop her best friend. She got back in her car and left with Sindy.
***
In a fine restaurant, a private room. Viola was waiting for someone there. A middle-aged man in a fancy-looking suit. His appearance is neat and his stomach is slightly distended even though his body looks fit. His body is tall and muscular. His slightly gray hair was styled like a young man. This makes him look younger than his actual age.
"Dear Viola. I miss you so much." The man stood up and greeted Viola.
"I miss you too." The answer was unenthusiastic.
"What's wrong? Something's making you down? Smile, it makes you look prettier. My sweet." The man poked Viola's chin.
"Small problem. I'm curious about something. Could it be that your company has created a new robot? My friends are gossiping about this in college."
"Ah, your friends' ears are very sharp. The company is indeed producing a servant robot."
"What does it look like? Who already has it?" Viola asked probing.
"What's wrong? You're not usually interested in my business." A suspicious gaze framed the middle-aged man's eyes. "You know, I don't like us discussing business matters." He gave a warning.
Viola rolled her eyes, then her attitude changed. She became cuter and more attached to the man. Viola dared not offend him.
"I'm sorry. What should I do to fix it?" She said spoiled.
"We'll spend the night together. At the usual place. My wife is out of town. I'm free tonight."
"Okay, whatever. As long as you're happy." Viola pecked his lips.
