Chapter 21 - Something About Organization

All day long I kept thinking about Galter. What if the remarks are correct? What should my response be? Honestly, I'm still a bit traumatized if someone is holding my neck, or touching it. Then if Galter is indeed Senem, how could Senem turn into a human if he does not know how to remove his curse? The world is just getting weirder and weirder, and I've thought of weird things too.

My cell phone rang, I saw his name and it was Nicholas. I picked up the phone and came to a female voice, I thought that it was his girlfriend Nicholas who called the wrong phone, but it turned out to be Fidelya who wanted to talk about something through Nicholas's cell phone.

"Hello? Eiryana?" asked Fidelya making sure that she hadn't called the wrong phone.

"Yes. Who is this?" I asked because Nicholas' voice couldn't have sounded lighter, more subtle like a girl's.

"It's me, Fidelya. Do you have time now? I want to meet, Galter is with me here, there is also Nicholas. You can't you come now?" asked Fidelya indeed a male voice from his phone. I don't have any activities today either, just go, all the familiarity.

"Yes, I can come with Lavin," I said it would be more fun if I was with Lavin, especially since I became afraid to go home alone at night.

"Can't you just be alone?" asked Fidelya making me a bit curious as to why Lavin shouldn't come with me. I'm worried that this is some kind of trap or something that will make it difficult for me later.

"Can't, I'm not allowed to go out if I'm alone," I replied that no one forbade me to go out alone or not, but I'd rather be with Lavin when traveling outside the castle. Especially now that it is afternoon, it could be that the business is over until the evening.

"Alright, it's okay with Lavin," Fidelya retorted sounding resigned.

"I'll get ready now."

Fidelya sent the address of the meeting, it turned out to be near Blue lake, a place crowded with people. When Fidelya invited me like that, I became a bit worried, worried that I made a mistake that I didn't realize, and made Fidelya angry. Although this is my first day here, and now I have gotten into trouble with a class leader.

"Lavin, you can accompany me out?" I asked immediately downstairs after getting the address.

"Can. Where are you going?" asked Lavin, who is currently watching Mr. Harto who is taking care of his grandfather's garden. In the morning and evening, Mr. Harto always took a very good look at grandpa's garden and took care of the existing plants. If that's the case, I feel like grandpa is with us, in the form of his garden.

"Blue Lake," I replied shortly.

"I'll prepare."

I also got ready immediately after Lavin agreed. I was wearing ordinary clothes, just a jeans skirt and a plain moca-colored sweater. Lavin is done, and so is I. Since Blue lake is a bit far from here, I along with Lavin ride a bicycle, with me piggybacking.

"I should have piggybacked on you," Lavin muttered, which sounded to my ears, very clear.

"If your hand is fully recovered, then it will be your turn to piggyback on me. It's okay, don't hesitate to me too much, just relax. You're my family," I said already going up first and waiting for Lavin to sit in the back.

Sometimes Lavin is reluctant toward me, even though I want Lavin to treat me casually, without any restrictions. During Lavin's stay with me, I wasn't so lonely because there was someone the same age as me, talking all sorts of things about teenagers, even having the same genre of movies, adventure, mystery.

The bikes made it easier for us to come faster. I parked my bicycle near the lake and searched for fidelya's whereabouts that I felt, I didn't remember his face, naturally, I had only met her once at school, and couldn't know his face right away.

"It was there, sitting in the lakeside gazebo," Lavin said recognizing Fidelya, just as I recognized Nicholas who was there, but I didn't see Galter at all, even though Fidelya said that Galter was also there.

I and Lavin walked together towards the gazebo. Fidelya smiled when he saw me and invited the two of us to sit together. I don't know why they called me here, only that Fidelya's smiling gaze was like that like he was thinking about something whether good or bad.

"So I asked you to come here because I wanted to offer you to be a member of the student council, if Lavin wanted to, it would be great," Fidelya said giving me a leaflet it showed me about the student council in our school, the student council with some school events.

"Student Council? I'll think about it," I replied not planning to get into any organization. "Here the requirements to become a member of the student council must follow several series of inaugurations. What does that mean?" I asked not understanding this.

"A kind of soldering here will be given some material regarding the student council and how the student council works," Nicholas replied finally speaking.

"Interesting. Then when?" I asked because, on this leaflet, there is no definite date written, only the word 'coming soon.

"Immediately, that's why we are looking for some people who are willing to participate. The registration is still unknown. So just listen to the announcement. I hope you can come along, try to socialize, organize, be something, get out of your comfort zone," Fidelya said very reassuringly.

I became interested before I had been in scouting when I was in elementary school, of course, I still didn't know anything at that time. Yes, if I want to be able to manage my grandfather's entire wealth, at least I have to start with some useful things in the student council. I want to come along to change myself.

"Then Galter where? She said he was here?" I asked wanting to get Galter along if only Lavin wouldn't.

"He was here before, I had offered him to come along, but it was simply rejected," Fidelya replied looking annoyed but also blushing when talking about Galter.

Dusk, it's almost night. After I was satisfied with asking Fidelya various things, I and Lavin went home together on a bicycle again. The street lights began to brighten up. Let's be honest something's changed, the street lights are there and I don't have to worry too much about the road. On the way back, we accidentally ran into something.

"Eir! Stop!" shouted Lavin looking at something I was also looking at.

"That's Senem," I muttered.

I got off the bike and chased Senem, who was about to enter the woods. Lavin left my bike and went after me. Lavin didn't know what happened, but Lavin still ran behind me to take care of me. Senem was no longer visible, and I didn't dare to step into the woods, even if it was only a step away.

"What are you looking at Eir?" asked Lavin not knowing what I was chasing.

"Big bat. Let's go back, aunt Yun will be angry if we go home too late."
