Why is he like this?
I ran as hard as I could. I was trying to match Genta's significant steps. But it's useless. Genta's steps are more significant than mine. Even when I run
There, it's crowded. The children gathered. Some shouted hysterically, and some shouted as if they were a stronghold of defense between the two. The Masters were running towards that place. Right in front of the student council room.
Even though it is often dim because of the children's insistence in front, I can see it. Ricky was right on top of Aldi's limp body and bruises. Keep beating mercilessly. Meanwhile, the other student council children, whose faces were already bruised, tried their best to pull Ricky's body. Even though I knew their efforts would be in vain.
Right now, I seem to know what Ricky's true nature is. He looked as if he didn't know anyone around him. Knows no mercy or mercy. Ricky is a terrible person, and knowing him is a disaster. How come I know someone as cruel as Ricky? As vicious and brutal as he was? He wasn't human, and he wasn't a normal kid. I'm sure he's a criminal. And it might be true what the children said if he was in and out of prison a lot.
"Ricky! It's you again... you again! You like acting like this, don't you think!" shouted Mrs. Marita. I know he is the most famous teacher at school. Mr. Hamdan, the head of the school, and Mr. Mahmud, a BP teacher, are reluctant with him.
Ricky tilted his head. Still with that look. Sad brown eyes that look withered. Even more, impressed so cold. However, a painful glint of anger radiated there. A mix of feelings that makes everyone shiver.
"Get off Aldi's body! Now!" Mrs. Marita ordered again. Ricky chuckled. After punching Aldi, he stood up.
PLAQUE!!
A slap landed on Ricky's cheek. Even I know how hard the slap was. To the extent that Ricky's face, which was initially facing Mrs. Marita, now turned sideways. But Ricky was still silent. However, the blush on her white cheeks was very obvious.
"A few days of not throwing a tantrum like you can't, huh? Now, what are you doing until you beat up student council kids? Don't you know that what you did was outrageous, Ricky! You could be suspended!" again, Ricky was silent. You were not replying to any of Mrs. Marita's words.
"Mom, let me take care of it." now, Mr. Mahmud is intervening.
"How is this, father? This father is a BP teacher. You spoil this child too much. That's why his naughty nature never goes away. After the brawls between schools, now he beats up his student council student! It's embarrassing!"
"My hands are itching, Mom. I want to hit people. Especially seeing Aldi's innocent face. I want to trample him!"
"Ricky!"
"Yes, ma'am... already," Mr. Mahmud pulled Ricky's hand. Then he helped Kak Aldi to stand up. "What happened, Aldi? How could Ricky do this?"
Aldi with a bruised look. He was staring at Ricky with a vengeance. He immediately pointed at Ricky without fear.
"He smokes in front of the student council room, sir! I told you carefully that smoking is not allowed at school. But instead, he attacked us! He is a naughty student, a bad boy! riot and tarnish the good name of our school, sir!"
"Is that true, Rick?" Mr. Mahmud asked Ricky. I know, even though Mr. Mahmud seems mushier. But he is a proper teacher. He never punished his students with violence. He always knows how to win the hearts of his students. Not many people know which angle it is.
Ricky was silent, and he turned his face away. His brown eyes glanced at me briefly, and it managed to scare me. Why does my body suddenly shake violently? Why is my body suddenly shivering with cold? I'm afraid, Ricky. Even being stared at, I was afraid. And for some reason, I don't want to be near him.
"Follow you to the BP room, Rick," said Mr. Mahmud. Without comment, Ricky followed Mr. Mahmud's steps into the BP room. Meanwhile, OSIS members immediately entered the health room.
Honestly, I have absolutely no idea. Why would Ricky do such a thing? Was it just because he was reprimanded for smoking?
"Ricky is a bum, and he's messing with the student council kids. Usually, he's anti-fights with school students," Genta said, interrupting my daydream. I don't know what to answer. Because I don't know anything.
"You're the girl, Lam. Does he have a problem with you? That's why he's frustrated like that?" he asked again. I can only shake my head. Entered the classroom with a strange feeling. Yes, strange. Because right now, the students are looking at me with such gazes. It was as if I had something to do with Ricky. As if I was a nightmare for Ricky.
"I'm sure there must have been problems with Aldi before. There's no way Ricky would be like that."
"Yeah, I've known Ricky for a long time. He's not the kind of guy who gets hit easily, if I'm not mistaken."
"You know, student council is pretentious. Maybe Ricky knows the brain that first reported him to the police."
I just walked into class. Bondan, Salma, and Echa have been gossiping like that. And, of course, who are the student council minions that are meant here. Who else, if not me and Sekar.
I looked at Sekar, whose eyes were puffy from crying. She looked back at me, with a little fear, she waved her hand at me. I walked over and sat beside her. Then who brought her face closer to mine.
"Is it because she defended you?" Sekar asked. I don't know what that means. I looked at her face, and she brought her face closer to mine. "I mean, Ricky. Is he doing this because of you? You're the girl, Lam? Is he angry because Aldi sacrificed you?" she asked. I furrowed my brow in confusion. What is the relation? Ricky fought with Aldi because he smoked. Not because...
Is it true?
I revisited my memory today. Everything happened in a row until the Ricky incident. Is it true? Why is that question bothering me? If so, is that how Ricky solves the problem? If it's because of me, then I don't like it. I hate violent boys. I hate vengeful boys, and I hate bad boys.
What's more, I wouldn't say I like Ricky. No, I don't hate it. But I'm afraid.
