Chap 18: If only there had been a Papi
"Dony...., is there something you want to say, son? "ask the principal's mother.
Arvin looked towards Dony.
"I.., I know the truth," said Dony with a somewhat fearful expression. Arvin's expression looked more enthusiastic than before after seeing Dony speak.
"really? tell me, son," Sara told Dony.
"But..," said Dony hesitantly looking at the three children who were beaten by Arvin who is now glaring at him.
"Easy! let me be suspended, there is no point in waiting for the defense of a coward" Arvin glanced at Dony.
Dony clenched his hands together as if collecting his savagery. "I'm not a coward!" scream Dony.
Then Dony finally tells the story of what really happened, to the reason why Arvin could beat his friends.
*Flashback actual events
Arvin is resting while drawing a superhero on his drawing board,
"The uncle who saved me from falling from the tree was so cool, he was a good fit to be a Super Hero" Arvin said, imagining Ryuzen as a Superhero.
However, while being engrossed in drawing Arvin accidentally sees his friend Dony being bullied by Peter, Yori and Shehan children who are famous for bullying other children.
Seeing Dony who was silent on the piercing, Arvin could not stay still, he approached them.
"Don't bother him!" arvin exclaimed to his three friends who bullied Dony.
"Why indeed? He didn't protest us, why are you angry!" shehan.
"You only dare to bully weak people in a wiggle, you think that's cool!" reply Arvin.
"Who do you think you are? Go there, you son who has no father!" tease the three children.
Arvin wanted to get angry but considering he had promised his mother not to make trouble at school, he finally held back his anger a little.
"What if you don't have a father? That's none of your business! Better now you guys step aside and don't bother the kid again!" said Arvin who glanced at Dony.
"Huh you son of a bitch, friends teach this fatherless child a lesson!" yori exclaimed at Shehan and Peter.
Shehan and Peter push Arvin down, Arvin does not retaliate and just stands back, but Yori again hits Arvin.
Arvin began to lose patience and hit Yori back, until the four of them got into a fight and Arvin beat the three of them to tears.
*Flashback done
"Is that how it happened? " ask the principal, making sure of Dony's words.
"Yes, I saw it for myself, Arvin didn't hit them at all first. Those who actually insulted Arvin because Arvin tried my furniture" explained Dony.
"Hey, don't you be a liar, which may be our son who is obviously from a respectable family doing such a thing" the mother of the misbehaving children, who doesn't believe Dony's story, argued.
"It is precisely you Mothers who have allowed your children to learn to lie, simply because of your prestige to admit wrongdoing and accept the truth."
Sara who has been trying to stay calm, now looks more emotional and back against the parents of students who insulted Arvin and himself earlier.
"Madamos, you may come from a distinguished and distinguished family, but there are things you should know, whether bad someone is not judged by the height or the rendition of social status that someone has. It is precisely the bad good of a person to be judged by the way a person says and behaves."
"You're right, I'm not from the upper class like you, but at least, I've never treated others badly just because the clothes that people wear are mediocre.
"And one more thing, as parents, especially mothers, you should educate your children to know how to respect and treat others well, not even supporting them when they are clearly guilty, "sara bluntly explained.
The three old disciples were now only able to withstand the embarrassment with all their prestige.
"Shehan, Yori, Peter apologize to Arvin!" the principal's mother's orders.
The three of them were eventually forced to apologize to Arvin, but unfortunately their parents still acted arrogant and left without apologizing to Sara.
"Mrs Chen, as the principal I'm sorry for this, I will suspend the three children later" the principal told Sara.
"It's okay, Madam, then I and Arvin say yes," Sara told the principal's mother.
"Mother principal, I'll go home first...!" said Arvin politely.
Sara and Arvin leave the school and head home.
On the way while waiting for a taxi Arvin looked grim he was reluctant to walk
"Arvin what's wrong? Mami's not mad at you." said Sara softly
"Mami.., I thought if there were a Papi, I'm sure no one would dare bully Mami like that." With a grim look Arvin said that. Of course it makes Sara feel guilty.
"Arvin, I'm sorry Mami, yes" Sara told Arvin.
Seeing the mother grieving Arvin also tried himself okay.
"Mommy doesn't have to apologize, I'm fine, my words about papi just forget it, now we better go home, I'm hungry to eat mami's cooking," said Arvin so that his mother does not look sad anymore.
Arvin is arguably quite mature compared to children his age, he likes to pretend it's okay, but as Sara's mother also realized deep down at this time she felt very sad.
Sara always remembered every time she went out with Arvin, she often found Arvin always looked envious every time he saw a child his age who went together and with both parents. It couldn't be hidden from the brownish look in his eyes.
"Mommy.., let's go home!" take Arvin to his mom.
"Well let's go home, Mommy's gonna have some delicious lunch for you later."
And they both left school.
