7 The Consequences of The Fight

Since the battle behind the school occurred, Yan and the gang began to move away and seemed to avoid Azmya.

Yan even pretended not to recognise Azmya, so did Fadil and Opick. It made Azmya feel calm and peaceful.

Likewise Jun, Azmya never saw or heard Jun being bullied by them again.

It looked like her bluff had worked quite well. Azmya could calm down a little by not dealing with them anymore.

But, Jun seemed like trying to avoid Azmya. Whenever Azmya tried to speak, Jun was silent and unresponsive.

Azmya didn't have a clue. It happened since the incident at the music studio yesterday.

Jun still didn't want to talk to her.

Was he ashamed of her, or was he afraid because she was good at fighting? Thinking about it made Azmya in a bad mood.

"Guys, today Mr Tito will not come because his son is hospitalised. He only gave us the task to read the textbook and make ten questions on the paper!" Vivian, the class leader, instructed.

The bad news was greeted with a tone of disappointment and sadness.

Maybe in this class, the only one who felt free and happy was Azmya. The rest felt lost.

'What an extraordinary class.' Azmya thought.

She saw Jun seemed to open Mr Tito's textbook. He immediately focused and enthusiastically worked on it.

Azmya was bored and lazy. She prefered to look at Jun's face while laying her head on the table facing Jun's face. He was focused on the book.

After a while, the 'sleepyhead' recurred. Ten minutes later, Azmya fell asleep, still facing Jun.

She made a soft grunt that made Jun find her asleep.

Jun smiled, seeing Azmya asleep like that. He couldn't take his eyes off of her.

He also knew that Azmya had been watching him. He just pretended not to care about her.

He felt that Azmya really liked him. But Jun didn't want to admit that he liked her too.

He knew his place and who Azmya was. He felt like he didn't deserve to express it.

He didn't want to embarrass Azmya about the fact that he was only an ordinary merchant son in the school canteen.

So, he tried to hold back his feelings and just be Azmya's secret admirer instead.

Jun also unconsciously laid his head facing Azmya's sleeping face.

At the moment, their faces were facing each other.

He intensely stared at her. Somehow, he could only affectionately look at her this way.

Jun smiled at Azmya's face covered in bangs. He then reflexively brushed her bangs.

Not having enough time to return his hand, Azmya slowly opened her eyes.

They looked at each other once more. Only for a split second, they immediately got up at the same time.

It was awkward for them. They were both embarrassed because they caught themselves staring at each other.

"Have you finished taking notes?" Azmya asked, trying to break the awkward atmosphere.

"Not yet," Jun replied shortly.

He then opened his notebook and began busily writing to get rid of the awkwardness.

"Jun!" Azmya called.

"Yes," Jun replied without turning his head.

Jun's heart was quite shaken. He was afraid he couldn't control himself. He was still trying to write more precisely and doodling because he was only pretending.

"Jun!" Azmya called him again.

She was sure that Jun also liked her.

"Yes, what?" Jun replied, still not turning to Azmya.

"If I like you, what will you do?" Azmya asked directly.

Her statement made Jun stop writing. He then turned to Azmya.

Azmya's face was flushed red for a moment when she said that.

Cat got Jun's tongue. He was shocked when Azmya suddenly said that.

Jun was flattered, but he felt helpless at the same time. All he could do was throw the book in front of Azmya.

"Don't mess around, hurry up and do your assignments. If you don't do Mr Tito's assignments, you can get a D grade," Said Jun sternly, ignoring what Azmya had just said.

Azmya just frowned.

Jun wasn't interested at all in what she just said. However, she thought that he should have answered that question.

Azmya still believed that Jun must have a reason. She understood that Jun was a smart boy.

Indeed, assignment and study must be the only things in his mind. There was no way Jun could talk about anything other than lessons.

Azmya inevitably followed Jun's suggestion. She immediately did the same thing, reading and writing assignments.

*** **** ***

Azmya seemed to be pacing back and forth in her room.

She felt bad when she received a message from her daddy, telling her that she had embarrassed her dad because of fighting with Yan.

Worse, her dad asked her to apologise to Yan. Otherwise, she would have trouble at school and couldn't graduate there.

"He must be a spoiled child! Was that the only thing he complained to his parents?" Said Azmya.

The problem was that he used threats that his father owned the school.

"If it's like this, where should I put my face if I apologise to him?" Azmya snorted in annoyance.

Azmya was really upset tonight.

What should she do tomorrow? Apologise or pretend like she knew nothing?

Feeling upset, Azmya took out her cellphone, and then she opened the photo gallery.

She looked for Jun's photos that she had taken secretly. She stared at Jun's photo while he was reading a book in the library.

Azmya smiled while zooming it in.

Jun's face was very charismatic while reading a book. His pictures were like a mood booster for her.

Shortly after, Azmya fell asleep while holding her phone.

*** ***

The entrance bell hadn't rung yet when Azmya entered the classroom.

The class was already busy with students, but Azmya saw Jun's table was still empty.

Why wasn't he here yet?

"Azmya, Yan was looking for you!" Said Dea.

"What?" Azmya was getting annoyed.

Yan seemed like he won the fight. He dared to approach her first.

Azmya thought for a moment.

"He said, when you come, you have to go to the music studio!" Said Dea with a little emphasis.

"Okay, thanks," Azmya replied.

"Azmya, it looks like you have a serious problem with Yan. I suggest to you. It's better if you hurry and apologise!" Dea suggested.

"All students in this school already knew that you fought with Yan. It's crazy. I'm so embarrassed by your courage," Said Vivian.

Dea immediately pinched Vivian.

"Do you mean that incident has spread to everyone?" Azmya replied with a cynical smile.

"It's bad, his father also knew. Don't you know that his father is the chairman of school?" Dea explained.

"I'm quite sure you all believe the reason why I beat him– according to him, right?" Azmya asked.

She had experienced something similar to this at her old school, where everyone believed Putri more than her.

Everyone judged that Azmya was an evil being, who knew martial arts techniques and wanted to become a strong person oppressing the weak.

"So I don't have to trust anyone?" Vivian answered, questioning.

"What is clear is that your position is less fortunate if you have to deal with Yan!" Dea continued.

"Who knows that you might be expelled from this school!" Vivian scared her.

"No," Azmya replied while shouting.

She then hurried out of the classroom. She didn't want to be expelled from school. It could be disastrous for her.

She wouldn't be able to see Jun anymore, especially since her father had threatened her to move to Japan if she had trouble again in this school.

Her grandfather in Japan would be happy if she could go to Japan. That was his wish and hope.

But Azmya didn't want to be apart from Jun.

She had just fallen in love for the first time and didn't want to end this feeling too soon.

She immediately ran to the music studio to meet Yan.
