The Poison: Stories Of The Number 27
Back To School's

“But... You can't come every day to donate your blood, son. You may lack blood and end up limp and get sick. Come next month when your body has completely recovered.” Said one of the sisters as a teenager walked past the reception desk holding the teenager's arm, which looked very pale.

“It's okay sister, I'll be back the day after tomorrow or next week only. My sister seems to be anemic, so can't help donating her blood.”

“It's okay son, the Hospital has received a blood donor that the PMI collected this morning. So you better take a break this month. Also worry about your body condition.”

“Oh? Is that so, sister? Then I am very grateful, I will—“

“No need to try to make money by side work anymore, a donor has paid all the administrative dependents of this Hospital, only for the selected people. And thank goodness, you were chosen!”

The teenager in front of him fell silent, not believing in the kind of miracle he was getting.

“Se-Seriously? So... Dad's medical fee is free?!”

“Eits, only for one year this yes!” The Sister replied, be happy when you tell me this good news.

“Actually Sister Anne submitted you as a candidate, tau?” Another sister, who was younger than Sister Anne, said.

“Suster! Thank you very much! My brother and I owe you so much!”

“Not a big deal, son. May your father get well soon and get a suitable kidney donor.”

“Aamiin... thank you very much Sister. I don't know what would happen if there were no Sisters..”.

“You worked hard all this time.. So you deserve it.”.

After the farewell, the teenager immediately walked towards the exit of the Hospital with a relieved heart. He appreciated his hard work so far. In the end, it all did not go to waste. As he had just set foot on the sidewalk of the Hospital courtyard, someone called out to him from behind. He turned his body around and found Leo, Sofia, Eireen, and Herina who seemed to have just come out of the Hospital as well. Ah even he forgot to visit his best friend because he was too happy to get good news from Sister Anne earlier.

“Oy Vin! What is in Hospital?” Ask Leo.

“Gue would have said that I was sick.”

“Ohh... Treated at this Hospital also sis?” Eireen asked, Ervin nodded in response.

“Kok brother Ervin pale so anyway?” Ask Sofia.

“Well yes, you hurt Vin?” Now Herina asked.

“No, I am not a blood donor.”

“Wah... Cool brother..” Praise Sofia.

“Lo as a regular donor?” Ask Leo.

“For now yes. Hospital is deficient in AB Negative blood type. And bokap should wash blood regularly once a month.”

“Ah... I see..” Mumbled Sofia.

“Lo blood donor until pale duh duh... Yok we eat! Add energy Vin...” Omel Herina.

“Let's be at home. I don't bring much money.”

“Gue take. Come on come along! I treat. Usually also very self-supporting request at tractir.” Excited Leo while leading Leo to the Traditional Dining House which is not too far from the Hospital.

Traditional Dining House, which is Padang or even Warteg Dining House.

...❄❄❄💙❄❄❄...

Rafael finally left the room after getting a second call, from his assistant. Xennora guessed, her father was leaving for his office again. Finally, Xennora was able to breathe with relief now. Coinciding with that, Leo and Edwin had returned from the Hospital.

“Nih deck, HP lo.” Edwin said while offering Xennora phone that he left earlier only to provide evidence about the age of Kirania Phyralis.

Xennora took her cell phone and her two brothers resumed their steps to the second floor. Xennora was a little hesitant about the actions she was about to take. But hiding everything about him was also not a good thing to do. They are brothers anyway. A good brother will never hide anything.

"That privacy applies to everyone, Xennora. They're your sisters, I'm sure they'll understand."

Well, may the words of a Nazril Arkatama be true.

“Emm.. Bang,”

“Hm?”, “What deck?” Their responses simultaneously turned his body towards Xennora. The phone that Leo played from the beginning went into the house he had stored in his pocket.

Alright, Xennora is getting nervous now.

“Eung... You have no time?”

Yep, the words of people who are sick are quickly granted. Leo and Edwin will thank Julian after this.

...❄❄❄💙❄❄❄...

Entering the second week before the National Examination, today the school has reopened after ten days of closure, with the guarding of several police and additional security. Julian was discharged from the hospital four days ago because Kamila was determined to have Julian rest for a full week. Edwin was also able to walk without a cane even though the way he walked was still a little shaken. Everyone thinks Deandra and Reydevan are gone. They speculated that their bodies were destroyed after the explosion and then drowned and washed up in the river and were eaten by wild animals such as crocodiles and medium-sized fish.

Oh and about the honesty of the day, in addition to Xennora who did the confession, it turns out Edwin also has things that he kept secret from Xennora. It's no secret, because every time Edwin wants to tell Xennora, there's gotta be a hitch.

Edwin and Herina had been officially in a relationship even before the investigation team was formed. Xennora was of course shocked, let alone knowing the fact that only she had not known this news. He remembered that when Edwin called him to chat or even just watch TV together, he always rejected him for various reasons. The most classic is to do the job.

Xennora regretted it a little.

And now, for the first time, the three Fachrunaldo brothers set out together in a car that is usually used by the twins only because Xennora always leaves early to take the bus.

“Envigorous learning yes, deck. Said you were in the jump class program, right?” Edwin asked as Leo was busy parking the car.

“Iya, bang.”

Leo approached them, throwing something at Xennora. Reflexes, Xennora also caught an object that turned out to be cold milk box, with a green tea taste.

“Thanks, bang. First off, have a nice day!” Pamit Xennora then ran towards her class.

“Yes, be careful yes!” They answered simultaneously and then stepped towards their class which was located opposite to the direction of the Xennora class.

Xennora's schedule this week is pretty tight. There's a second and third Try Out that should have been done last week. And also it looks like there will be an impromptu quiz today. Thinking about it made his mind tired for a moment. All he needed right now was a blue rose that he usually found under his desk.

It was still morning, there was only Xennora in the classroom. He immediately checked under his desk but there was nothing there. This is quite strange because usually the flower exists even before other students enter the class.

Xennora sighed in confusion. He drank the milk that Leo gave him while he dropped out of his class for a walk. The members of OSIS are already on guard at the front gate to check the completeness of the attributes used by students.

There was Vina also there, who was disciplining attributes and uniforms. Xennora was intending to approach the girl before her netra saw a man running towards the gate with a stupefied breath.

Tumben leaves at noon. Usually the security guard just opened the gate he was already at school...

When Julian had already escaped through the ranks of the children of OSIS, Xennora intended to reprimand him.

"Your wounds don't hurt to be carried away?"

Julian turned his head and replied with a sigh. "Udah mengedan... Anter to Sen's canteen, I haven't had breakfast." He answered while pulling Xennora's arm towards the canteen.

"Crazy? Five minutes bell, fool."

"Harsh word's. You're following Try Out today. And Try Out starts at half-nine! There's still half an hour."

"Yes but-"

"Lo hasn't learned yet? Don't believe me."

...❄❄❄💙❄❄❄...

"Lo want to take a meal message? Let's all."

"So, I'm not hungry."

"Oh yaudah, wait here lo. Don't run away."

"Whisper, it's there."

Xennora sat down and played her cell phone. It seems Julian wasn't entirely wrong to bring Xennora here. Because in fact, many upperclassmen who incidentally will follow Try Out are chatting in this cafeteria.

"Xennora huh?" Asked one of the upperclassmen to make Xennora's attention distracted.

"Yes. What was? Sis?"

"Called Mr. Hasan in the Administrative Room."

"Oh okay. Thanks brother."

Xennora glanced at the place where Julian was queuing up. It seems like a long time. He also stepped into the Business Administration room which is located not too far from the canteen.

"August, sir. You call me?"

"Yes, this is your Exam participant card. Later you will take class 12 Penalty 1. In room 1, the first session starts at 08:30 until 12:00, if you pass this last Try Out... You can take the National Exam from May 13 to 15. Anybody want to ask?"

"Terms or KKM for this program is still 85 pak?"

"Yes... Sorry but for this year it was changed to 90."

"Fine sir then. Thanks for the information."

Xennora went to the cafeteria. Julian was sitting, playing his phone in front of a plate of fried rice.

"Main hp mulu, but food is watered." Cibir Xennora while sitting in front of Julian who immediately kept his cellphone.

"Where are you?"

"TU's room."

Julian looked relieved, but Xennora could still see a hint of worry on her face.

"Sir, gota-"

"Lo Try Out's session one right?" Julian cut out Xennora's question.

"Yes, Private class session two. And the last Public Law class session... Don't you?"

"Yes, really."

"Lo why the hell, brother? How do you feel so nervous?"

"There's a little problem, gossip. But it doesn't matter..."

"Yes, you're weird, gossip is in question."

"*Yes, he said. I don't believe it too much either."

"But aren't they neighbors of old huh?"

"That's it, it's cinlok hahaha."

"What are you talking about? I swear I don't know coy!"

"Yeuu lo sih kesamangan mulu. So miss it."

"That's, one of our most wanted, same-class sisters."

"Which "most wanted? I'm not lying if our school has a lot of cogans."

"Ish, yes Fadhil. He said he was*-"

"Woi Agatha!" Call Julian to a group of students sitting not far from their table.

The girl Julian called Agatha turned her head. "Eh candidate for director. Why?"

"Diem gak lo. Dizziness I hear rumors from you every day." Yep, Agatha. One of Julian's classmates. The head of the gossip spreader gang at this school as well as the admin of the school gossip form.

"Yes, I am also dizzy to know you nagging every day! Uh bay the way... Who her? I just realized you're not alone..."

"He's the supernatural." Julian replied that the ngaco was being rewarded with a look of disbelief from Xennora.

"Sampe my love also penetrated her heart..." Cirps Julian.

Agatha displayed a surprised look. "Wahh! Seriously?! Gengs we got sadboys in class!" Heboh Agatha.

"That's what's unseen in her eyes HAHAHAHA." Said one of Agatha's friends who looked like thugs. Even his behavior is so. Tomboyish.

"Loe... Eh?! Lo Xennora right???"

Xennora looked up when she heard her name being mentioned by one of the upperclassmen with short hair tied up.

"Lo know sis?" Ask Agatha.

"She most wanted her class Criminal woy. Ah time you don't know, just resign sono from the gossip admin department."

"Huh? Seriously? What's that prosecutor's son saying?"

"Yes really. Se lacking any updates lo, I'm sure you know who he is."

"Oiya I want.... Understand my private class..."

"Later I'm the same class as him Try Out her."

"Well? Isn't he in 11th grade?"

"Don't get me wrong, pinter his son. So he's in the jump class program."

"What a whisper of the girls' stock." Julian muttered as he ate his last mouthful.

Xennora looked at her watch. It's eight over twenty. He better get ready to go to Try Out's room.

"Well, did you eat it? I'm going first." Pamit Xennora then left without Julian's consent. She went straight to room 1 because stationery like pens and pencils were always in her skirt pocket.

"*Hahaha congrats yes bro!"

"Yes. It was not in vain that ten years were waiting."

"What's your girl's name?"

"Haha... Called Antha... Class 11 Criminal 2*."
