A week later, the situation at school was very drastic since Kezia was close to Reina. None of the students dared to disturb Reina, let alone the right students, all of whom already knew that Reina was close to Kezia. Kezia takes this opportunity to stay close to Sebastian. Changes at school also occur in Reina's relationship with Lee Jackie. The two of them grew closer because Lee liked Reina.
"There is a group assignment of four people. I will be with you, Reina." Lee wants to do group work together with the girl he likes. Lee didn't want to lose the opportunity to get closer to Reina.
"Okay, it's okay. I'm also happy to be working as a group with you, Lee."
Only two more lucky people could join Lee's group. The students and also students try to join because they want to be close to Lee or Reina. However, Reina chose a group with two people who didn't get a group at all because they weren't popular students. Those two are Sean and Paul. Men who are considered unpopular and also have a troubled family.
"Lee, how about we team up with Sean and Paul? It seems that every time there is an assignment the two of them don't get a good group." Lee's suggestion was immediately approved.
"Fine, it's okay. I agree that no one is jealous and also noisy. Better a group with Sean and Paul than with them." Lee smiled knowing that the others only wanted to be close to Lee and Reina, not to take group work seriously.
Lee and Reina's decision was unexpected by the other students. They would start group work later after school at Lee's house. Reina feels happy because life at school is now much better than at the beginning. The other students and students were disappointed because they couldn't be in the same group as Lee and Reina.
"Thank you for inviting me to a group."
"Thanks for inviting me too." Sean and Paul thanked Reina and Sebastian for taking a group.
In the afternoon when she came home from school, Reina asked Sebastian for permission to do group work first. "Sebastian, I can't go home with you today. There's a group assignment and I'll be working on it with Sean, Paul, and Lee."
"Okay, I'm coming." Sebastian wants to join the group work.
"Sorry, didn't mean to interrupt your conversation but this group work is an assignment from our class so it looks like Sebastian doesn't need to come along." Lee doesn't seem to like it when Sebastian says he wants to join the group work even though he's an upperclassman at school.
"Oh, surely you guys will work in groups at Lee's house. Right, right?"
"Yes, Sebastian. Please let me work in groups and complete this task, then I will return home as soon as possible." Reina is afraid of not getting permission from Sebastian.
"Okay. Whatever!" Sebastian immediately left Reina just like that. Reina with Lee, Sean, and Paul will go to Lee's house.
Reina went to Lee's house with Sean and Paul using the car that picked up Lee. Lee, as usual, was taken to school and picked up by a private driver who used a car. Lee is the son of a rich man and his parents really care about Lee's welfare. It was a long drive from school to Lee's house, about thirty minutes by car. Arriving there, the four of them got out of the car and entered the very large house. Lee invited his three friends into the study room.
"Let's go into the study room over there. We just do our homework together in the room because it's too noisy in here." Lee invited his three friends to the study room.
At home, there are indeed many activities carried out by household assistants and also some employees who go in and out of the house to pick up some goods from the warehouse to be taken to the factory. Lee's parents owned a factory near the house. So, they used part of the area behind the house to become a warehouse.
"Lee, it's great that you have a house this big. No wonder friends in class always want to be close to you and also fight for one member of the group work." Sean was amazed to see the stately and luxurious Lee's house.
"This is all my parents' property, not mine. Let's just focus on the task and don't think about anything else, ok?" Lee was not a man to be arrogant or to show off his parents' wealth. Lee prefers to look simple even though the man's appearance and face radiates that he is indeed the son of a rich person.
"I salute you, Lee. Despite being the son of a rich and popular person in school, he is still humble and doesn't choose friends." Paul is actually also the son of a rich man but because his father was involved in a corruption case, his friends in class don't want to be close to Paul anymore.
"We are both lucky to be in a group and will be working on the current task. That's right Lee said, let's focus first on completing all the tasks and then we can talk and discuss many things after the task is done." Reina smiled and interceded as the men who were praising each other.
The four of them started working on group assignments. While in the middle of an assignment, a housekeeper came in with drinks and snacks for them. Indeed, the life of a rich person is very different from the life of a mediocre person. Reina is also the son of a rich man but there is no household assistant at home. It's just that there are people who will clean the house every two days.
Lee felt happy to be able to invite Reina to the house, even though it was only doing group work together. Lee enjoyed staring at the girl's face for a long time without blinking. Paul and Sean understand that Lee likes Reina. Lee and Reina do look like a perfect couple. Both are rich and popular, and have beautiful and handsome faces.
After finishing the group work, they also collected tasks for Reina to take with them. Then the four of them talked together while finishing the snacks and drinks that had been served. "You guys… Are you guys dating?" Paul unhesitatingly asked that.
Obviously the question made Lee and Reina surprised and looked at each other and confused about what to answer. "Um, no! We're just close friends." Reina immediately answered the question for fear of becoming a gossip that would spread in class and at school.
Reina is still afraid of the threats from the students in her previous class about being close to Lee. Reina does feel comfortable with Lee, but that doesn't mean you have to date.
"Oh, sorry. I thought you two were dating because they really matched." Paul held back his laughter knowing that Lee and Reina must be embarrassed because their cheeks were turning red.
Lee was still staring at Reina. When Reina looked at Lee, Lee was embarrassed and tried to avert his eyes. Sean and Paul laughed at the movements of Lee and Reina who were both shy but willing. Indeed, adolescence is a beautiful thing for feelings of love to blossom.
