Chapter 4 - Money

While they were laughing, suddenly one of the judges came up to them which of course took all four by surprise.

"Excuse me," said the jury who was their English teacher.

"Yes, ma'am. Why?" asked the keyboard player. The guitarist, drummer and Dionne stared seriously at one of the judges who suddenly came up to them.

"If I may ask, how many months have you been practicing to be able to perform at your best?" asked the jury.

"A month," answered the four of them which made them pause and then laugh.

"So sweet, we answered together hahahaha my dear, this is really funny," said the drummer who made the guitarist hit his left back.

"Like your gay! could it be that you are gay? don't come near me!" the guitarist moved his seat to be in the middle of Dionne and the keyboard player. Dionne and the keyboard player laughed at their behavior while the judge shook his head with a faint smile.

"Oh, so you guys only practiced for a month? Even though the announcement of this competition was announced six months ago, you know," said the jury.

"Yes, it took us a long time to find the band team members, ma'am. And after finding the right team members, we started practicing together," explained the keyboard player flatly. The jury was silent as she nodded her head and then stood up.

"Yes, thank you. I'm sorry, I want to continue serving as a jury," said the jury, who then left. The four of them were both silent until finally the guitarist opened the topic of conversation.

"Hmm maybe we have a chance to win? What a good result, isn't it?" said the guitarist, everyone agreed with his opinion.

"Yeah, I hope so," said the keyboardist coldly.

"Oh yes by the way, Dionne. Are you busy this afternoon?" asked the drummer which made Dionne turn towards him.

"Not really, why is that?" asked Dionne firmly.

"It's okay, I'm just asking. If you're relaxed, I want to take you for a walk to the mall," answered the drummer, which made the guitarist snap.

"No! No! Dionne has made an appointment with me that this afternoon we will go out together," said the guitarist which made the drummer turn towards him.

"Hmm how can you lie? I really don't know! So, how is Dionne? Can you go out with me this afternoon?" asked the drummer. When Dionne wanted to answer her question, suddenly the keyboard player said words that made the drummer and guitarist petrified to hear it.

"No one can walk with Dionne but me! Remember! No one can walk with Dionne!!!" said a keyboard player named Ray.

"That means if Dionne goes out with her best friend, her friend, her father, her mother, her sister, you won't allow her too?" asked Rendi, the drummer.

"To think that the school lord who is known to be cold will interfere in this matter," Oscar snapped as he put on his glasses. Seeing the three boys who were now arguing about it, made Dionne a little irritated. He suddenly stopped it but the option board appeared.

Dionne was given two choices, the first choice Dionne decided not to choose to go with the three or Dionne went with her three friends. Of course Dionne decided to choose the second option, because she didn't want to disappoint her friends. Dionne clicked her selection and returned to her position playing her own character.

"Ah, how about we go back together and celebrate our successful contest," said Dionne which made the three of them silent.

"Good idea," Oscar said with a laugh.

"Indeed, women are very smart in thinking, solving problems," said Rendi, laughing.

"Yes, you don't want me to decide to agree with het proposal. Even though I'm much more comfortable walking alone with her," Rey muttered which made Oscar and Rendi look at him cynically.

"What did you say earlier? Want to walk alone? It's the same as dating Dionne, please," said Rendi.

"Rey, don't forget your girlfriend who is now in the UKS. Don't turn away from him so easily!" Oscar said which made Rey feel irritated.

"I've never dated her! So far I've only been in touch with friends, I'm not even that close to her. It's just that she always approaches me and acts like a cheap woman," said Rey which made Dionne choke while drinking.

"Cough...cough..." Dionne coughed which made the three of them focus on her.

"Dionne, what happened?" Rey asked worried for Dionne.

"Are you okay, Dionne? next time drink slowly," Oscar said while stroking Dionne's head.

"Here, drink Dionne," said Rendi. He gave Dionne a glass of water and then Dionne gulped it down.

"Are you feeling better, Dionne?" asked Oscar. Dionne nodded her head with a faint smile. Rey, who had been silent all this time, suddenly gave Dionne a piece of money which surprised Dionne and the others.

"Why did you give me money?" asked Dionne with an astonished look on her face. Rey sighed and then she answered what Dionne asked.

"Snacks for you. You love to eat," Rey laughed at Dionne which made Dionne a little irritated.

"You.... how dare you mock me like that.. But it's okay, I happen to be a little hungry," said Dionne which made Rey chuckle.

"Ah Dionne! This is money for you to eat too," suddenly Rendi gave Dionne a piece of money that was bigger than Rey's. Of course it made Dionne feel bad even though she was actually very happy. Oscar didn't want to lose, he also gave Dionne some pocket money which was in nominal amount more than the pocket money that Rendi and Rey gave.

"To you, dear Dionne," said Oscar which made Rey and Rendi very irritated at both of them.

"Ah are you really serious? You give me money like this, sincere right?" asked Dionne.

"Of course!" said all three at the same time. Dionne was silent then after that she laughed as she got up.

"What kind of Angel do you guys have to be so nice to me today?" said Dionne which made Rey look at him seriously.

"Hmm, was our attitude towards you different before, huh?" Rey asked. Dionne nodded her head

"Yes, you guys are cold, indifferent to me and actually pay more attention to Tasya than me. But now.... could it be because Tasya isn't around?" said Dionne which made Rey petrified.

"N-nothing like that. Actually we care about you, just confused about how to pay attention. Even though you are an active child, but I often hear news that you are a baperan child, often over thinking so we are confused about where to start the conversation," explained Oscar.

"Well that's true, Dionne! Do you remember that a few weeks ago and a few days ago there were three people who gave you goods and food? Well, it's actually from us," said Rendi, which made Oscar and Rey annoyed for revealing his secret. .
