The Poison: Stories Of The Number 27
Plot Twist

"So how's aunty?" Ask Xennora. As he had requested, Xennora and Nazril returned to his cousin's house. And now they're in the Arkatama family's laboratory to examine the liquid that Xennora brought from the back hall.

"What the hell is that?" Nazril asked because Xennora had not told him anything about the liquid.

Xennora looked at Nazril fretfully, "not a good thing." Xennora replied briefly then looked back at mama Nazril in front of them. Nazril raised next to his eyebrows a sign of incomprehension after hearing Xennora's reply.

"Yes, Sen. From the smell it is clear. There's no poison that smells like fish oil. The color is also clear. Where did you take it from?" Ask Naifa.

"Aula behind the school, aunty. So then... Same culprit?" Xennora asked with a worried, angry, tired, and incredulous look.

"It's probably Sen..." Naifa was not sure.

Nazril who did not understand then took the notebook belonging to his mother who was at the front desk where they stood.

"Antrovitoxins? Isn't this poison limited? Even scientists don't know how to make it." Nazril said after reading the writing in the notebook.

"Yeah Na, so it's weird that Xennora took this compound from nowhere." Reply mother.

"Back school?* Tanya Nazril who replied a nod by Xennora.

"dither. Devan, switch numbers, Delia, keep you on the run, deal, terror, eight years... So you mean most likely the terrorist in SAN same 2007 mass death same?" Nazril asked in disbelief. Again, Xennora nodded in response.

"But aunty has a second possibility anyway Sen. The culprit is different, and the SAN hall is just a poison storage area." Naifa's words make sense.

"It could be anyway. How is aunty? The head of the lab has taken all the poison?" Ask Xennora.

Naifa looked at her phone at a glance, then nodded. "Udah, there are a total of 39 bottles and will be directly examined in the central lab. Means, 40 bottles is the same one this is."

Xennora nodded in relief, "thank you."

...❄❄❄💙❄❄❄...

Xennora got off Nazril's shiny black car, which was her father's 17th birthday present. Xennora waves as Nazril leaves. Then Xennora approached the gate of her house slowly and prepared to open it before she heard someone call her name.

"Xennor?" Ask someone behind her enthusiastically. Xennora turned her body to see who had just called her.

"Eh, Deandra Callena's sister. What's up, brother?" Xennora asked with a faint smile.

"No, I went for a walk. Uh, wriggle you here. It turns out our house is close." Said Deandra with an oversize nevy t-shirt and short white jeans.

"Oh yeah? How come I've never seen a sister in this area?"

"I love being at home, I rarely go out." Answer Deandra.

"Ohh... Aye." Yeah." Reply Xennora while watching Deandra who constantly looks into her house. The code?

"Eh, come in yuk brother. At home talk her." Invite Xennora to make Deandra's smile wider.

"Bole-"

"Jenner!!" Call Julian from a distance, then run towards Xennora and Deandra.

"Come on!" Take Julian after he's in front of them.

"Ke... Where's?" Xennora did not understand.

Julian looked at Xennora with a gaze that Xennora could not understand, "you didn't read the message from me?" Ask Julian.

Xennora frowned her brows cluelessly. They do not use silent mode. Xennora took her phone in her uniform skirt pocket. But when he had just turned on his phone, Julian glared and immediately took it and hid it behind his body with a slightly tense expression but trying to be as natural as possible.

Xennora frowned, increasingly clueless as to Julian's intentions. Deandra was made to gawk with the strange behavior of Julian Matteo Kayden.

"I took a walk this afternoon. Come on." Julian said as he pulled Xennora's hand gently and walked quickly leaving Deandra alone with an expression of disbelief.

"Gue borrow Xennora first for now, next time just talk!" Julian's shout made Xennora hit her shoulder slowly and then smiled unwell at the group of complex mothers near them who were staring at them with a meaningful smile.

"Excuse me, ma'am..." Julian said while looking down respectfully followed by Xennora whose arm was still held by Julian.

"Yes... Duuhh mother so remember the youth first." Said one of the mothers was followed by a murmur of agreement from his friends.

"Continue reading Xennora's with her boyfriend." The other mother made Xennora almost laugh when she heard her words. But before long Julian replied to his mother's words with a friendly smile.

After saying that one sentence, Julian again invited Xennora to continue their journey on foot.

Xennora fanned her face with a hand that Julian did not hold. Ah, even Xennora forgot her arm was still being pulled by Julian. And given that it makes the air around it becomes hotter. It might be natural, because it's May and it's dry season.

Soon they reached the park near Xennora's house, near the school as well. So if Xennora wants to calm the mind, the garden is her choice. A lot of kids are here, probably because it's more like a family park. Many slides and swings here, also a lot of street vendors, more looks like a culinary exhibition. Xennora even often treat ice cream for children there, so many parents who intend to replace Xennora money with a nominal that exceeds the price of ice cream. The reason besides having bought ice cream for their children, of course because Xennora has also managed to discipline children who are naughty and can not stand still.

"Lo find a seat. I'll buy a drink first. Want what?" Ask Julian.

"Green Tea!" Xennora replied enthusiastically.

Julian smiling. As expected, Xennora will definitely order green tea. Julian nodded then told Xennora first.

Xennora nodded then picked the table closest to where the children were playing.

"Sore, brother Rara!!" Greet the children compactly after Xennora had just sat down. Xennora smiled at him, a smile that had only been known to a few people including the children.

"Soree..." Reply Xennora kindly while waving her hand.

"Excuse me..." Said someone across the table where Xennora was sitting. Xennora thought it was Julian, but it wasn't. Xennora's rapture turned normal, flat making the man in front of Xennora sigh softly with a rumbling chest, nervous.

Julian who was done with his order was intent on finding Xennora's whereabouts. After finding it, Julian walked over and soon stopped when he saw a man in a plain white shirt wrapped in an army green jeans jacket standing in front of the girl.

"Raditya Gue. I've seen you here a lot, playing with the kids." Said the man named Raditya. There was a nervous tone in his sentence.

"Uh huh..." Xennora muttered while staring at Raditya intensely, according to Julian. Though Xennora only noticed the movements of the man in front of her. Raditya felt a little awkward when Xennora just muttered.

Raditya glanced at the table behind Xennora, where his friends were cheering cheering him without a sound while smiling ignorantly. Damn it, inner Raditya resigned. The image of Cool boy attached to him will just disappear because he currently feels awkward dealing with a girl named Xennora.

"Gue Xennora." After being silent for a few seconds, Xennora finally made a sound again, making Raditya sigh in relief.

"Emmm... Can I just ask for your number?" Raditya asked doubtfully.

"Make the person who is asked for the same number as someone he doesn't know, I think it's weird." Reply Xennora. His position was still sitting relaxed while Raditya was still faithfully standing, not feeling comfortable and more like being punished by the girl in front of him.

"Eh... Hehe... So...?" He asked with a laugh. Xennora smiled faintly then propped up her chin with her right hand.

"If you still have the brain to think, you must know what the answer is."

"Emmm... Can't you?" Raditya asked while holding his nape.

In the distance, Julian was already tired of waiting. To that end, Julian continued his steps towards the table where Xennora was sitting and Julian sat down next to the girl making Raditya a little surprised by Julian's arrival.

"Is this one of the thousand tricks to approach girls?"

(Is this one of the thousands of tricks for girls?)

"I think's... Yes." Reply Raditya.

"And what you're doing here is... Approaching me?"

(And you're doing this here... My pedicure?)

Xennora asked smiling wryly. At times like this Xennora's psyche soul stirred.

"I don't think I'm just talking to an acquaintance. Not in the 'ngeketin' intent you think." Said firmly. And the mission complete. That's the answer Xennora wanted. An honest answer from Raditya. He knew that the man in front of him was playing a challenge with his friends.

"I like your answer. You can be a law officer." Chirp Xennora. After that, Raditya left who only answered an indifferent nod from Xennora.

Xennora received the Green Tea that Julian gave her, then drank it. "Thanks yes. But why did I suddenly come here?" Ask Xennora.

"Keep away from Deandra." Julian replied casually but Xennora did not understand.

"Why?"

"He's not Xennora's good guy, I'm sure."

"Do you know how you feel for me yet?"
