Between Love and the Mafia
24. New Kids

A commotion broke out in the dining room, oma dragged Bara out loudly making her granddaughter grimace in pain. A few minutes later the oma let go of the jewel making the atmosphere become sad because it remembers the story of the past.

"Oma, why are you being released? I want oma to pick me up again" Bara wants oma to pick her up again. He was not angry with Bela's words, but he was happy.

Because the last oma to pick him up was when Denada was alive. Every morning the oma must have fouled Bara because he kept flirting with Denada. And Bela's speech was exactly the same as Denada's when he was alive.

Denada will always tell oma to keep asking her eldest brother to get punished for teasing him. And now it's just a memory, but Bela brings those memories back to life.

"Sit down, eat now" said oma.

"Oma why sad? Did I speak wrong? " Task Bela when she sees the face of the grieving oma again.

Bela could not bear to see the gloomy face of oma, she thought that her words made oma become lethargic. Bela approached and said a repeated apology.

"Oma forgive Bela" said softly Bela while holding the hand of oma.

"It's okay, you eat and soon go to school" said oma.

There was no sense of pleasure in Bela to enjoy this morning's meal. His gaze was fixed on the oma who bent her face. It was as if the joy had disappeared in an instant.

While Klara and Mario only fell silent because they all knew that the oma missed Denada who had left for good.

"Oma, how about later in the afternoon we take a walk to enjoy the outside air or to the beach. Doesn't I like the beach? " Defense the oma with the aim of restoring the lost smile.

Bela eliminates awkwardness at the dining table. He returned a cheerful mood. Finally the sad looking face of oma immediately smiled and happily looked at Bela.

"Yes, Ima really wanted to go to the beach. But wait for your feet to heal, baby" said soft oma melt Bela's heart.

Bara saw him astonished, but the sense of wonder was closed happily because his omanya now back cheerful. He no longer remembers the sadness in his life.

"Okay oma, I'm going to school this morning" Bela said.

*muach*a small kiss from Bela made oma smile happily. His hands gently stroked Bela's hair, it felt almost the same stroking Denada's hair.

"The boy brought happiness to this family, because of the drastic changes in the self of the oma" Inner Bara was touched to see the sincerity of love in Bela for the oma.

Because the closeness of the two of them makes Bela know the thing that you want, which is to enjoy the atmosphere of the beach. Because during Denada's life, the oma will always invite Denada to the beach playing sand.

Not just Denada, but Mario and Bara. As a child, I loved the three of them, no one dared to separate them. Because only the oma takes care of them sincerely.

"Ma drugs, oma drugs. Mario wants to go with us? " Task Bela innocently.

"The car is full, so he left with his driver" Ketus Bara like not accept if Mario departs with him.

Bara gave orders to Mr. Taryo to be Bela's driver during his leg pain. Because he knew that Mr. Taryo would love Bela wholeheartedly and help his adopted son during the illness.

Midway, Bara got out of the car and said that there was an important job he would take care of.

"Sir, didn't you take me to school? " Task Bela by getting her head out of the window.

"You don't get spoiled" said Ketus.

"Alright" Bela said briefly and did not care anymore where Bara would go.

Brick immediately got out of the car and got into another car. Bela immediately left together with Mr. Taryo, when he arrived at school he did not forget to say goodbye to his foster father.

"Be careful son" said Mr. Harto to his adopted son.

"Any boss" the girl always answered with a smile.

Not long after Mario's car came, he got out of the car and approached Bela who was standing in front of the gate with a confused face.

Mario took the initiative to invite Bela to enter and bring her to the teacher's room. Because Bela is only the first time to come to this school, so Mario does not want him to get lost.

"Come, we're coming in with me" Mario said as he walked.

"Mario" cried Bela with enthusiasm, and then his steps were limped following Mario.

Bela's face is very cheerful, she is happy to be in school with Mario. So if he thinks he needs something then the only way is to find Mario.

"I want to find the principal's room first" Defa explained.

"I'll deliver" said Mario.

Patiently Mario accompanies Bela, he stands guard for fear that Bela's legs are out of balance and cause her to fall. Every step Mario watch out for so as not to happen a mistake.

"For mario" A beautiful girl's greeting makes Mario and Bela's steps come to a halt. Mario only looked but did not answer his greeting.

"Mario, I miss you every day" said a resounding remark, making Bela unable to hold back her laughter.

His body twists like a hot worm to try to tempt Mario this morning. But Mario was still silent as if he did not know the female student in front of him.

"Why are you smiling, are you a new student? " That way while looking at Bela as a whole.

He is one of Mario's classmates who is very fond of Mario and always chase him no place. She is obsessed with being Marion's lover, a handsome, quiet and cold man.

"Hi, my name is Bela. Who are you" Sapa Bela was friendly. But he did not accept the position.

"Oh Bela, you'll know me as Mario's woman. And you're the new kid don't get near Mario" he said as he shifted where Bela stood.

Bela just fell silent then his gaze turned to Mario, so Mario also directed the look of his eyes at Bela which led to his face.

"Don't listen, he's crazy" Mario told Bela.

"Mario, why are you saying that? " Whine the girl.

She is Dira, a very existent woman in this school. He loves Mario because he looks very nice to be dating. But Mario always rejected it because she is a very disgusting woman according to Mario.

Mario does not like his style that always oppress other women, he always chased Mario everywhere. But he always gets the same rejection.

"Let's go" Mario told Bela.

"Mario, don't leave me" Rengek Dira as she wrestled in Mario's arm.

"Let go" With her cold demeanor she threw Dira's hand so hard. Until he almost fell.

Then the two of them walked towards the headmaster's room. Mario enters his class and sits down and reads a book.

Mario is one of the students with good achievements.he always gets the first rank and even he has always been a mainstay of teachers to carry out Olympic competitions at his school.

His face and attitude were always cold, so he never had any friends because he never got along with anyone. In the past he only played with Denada, although his brother was a woman but he felt comfortable. And now he's just a man standing alone with no friends.

*tatt*

"Good morning kids" said the teacher who entered the classroom.

"Well, today I'm going to introduce a new child who's coming into our class and will be joining you soon" explained the teacher.

"Who? "

"Who is he? "

The sound of the class was rowdy and wanted to know who would come and join them.

"Here to enter" Defa with the help of his cane, he walked slowly while introducing himself.

"Hello everyone, my name is Bela and will soon join your class. I hope we become friends" the friendly greeting.

Her cherry face was always blissful, making some of them very happy to see Bela. Beautiful appearance, friendly greetings and cheerful facial features make anyone amazed to look at him.

"Huh that kid? Why did he join this class. I hate him so much" Disgusted in my heart.

His face shrunk when he saw Bela's arrival. He is very unhappy with Bela for fear of Mario being taken by him.

All the students were staring at Bela happily, they were like happy to receive the presence of bela. Except for Dila, who was very upset that she had thought this morning's meeting was a bad thing when she saw Mario close to the girl before her.

"Alright, you sit in" said the teacher as he looked for an empty seat.

"Here you go" All eyes are on Mario.

They were very surprised, because all this time Mario attitude was cold and did not want to share the bench with anyone. Even Dira had asked his bench to sit with Mario, and almost every day the request was rejected as well.

But this time his face looked very excited to invite the new student to sit with him. It is a miracle of the world for so many times.

"Alright, you can sit there" continued the teacher agreed to Mario's request. Only the bench is empty.

"Thank you, pretty teacher" Bela's words made a smile on the teacher's lips.

Mario smiled a little because sitting with Bela was the calm thing he had ever felt.

The lesson begins, Bela who has an empty brain now begins to follow the subjects well and carefully. His past and present personality is inversely proportional.

Bela who once had a quiet, rebellious, and cold nature. But now Bela became a calm person, wanting to learn, and cheerful like other girls.

*tett*

"You want to go to the cafeteria? " Task Mario.

"Much not? I'm lazy to walk" said Bela because he was lazy to walk slowly with a cane.

"Calm down, I'll take care of you" said Mario as if ready to serve his brother-in-law.

With polite talk, Bela collapsed and went with Mario to the cafeteria. Mario's face was cold on all the students except Bela. It was as if he had found his life again.

"But I have no money" Bela said innocently.

Bara forgot to give Bela pocket money. He was also in a hurry to do his job. Fortunately, there is a reliable Mario. He's willing to buy Bela today.

*brak*

"Okay" Dira accidentally bumps into Bela, she is jealous of seeing Mario walk with the bar boy.

"I'm sorry, I didn't mean it" she said with a slight smile.

"Are your eyes blind? The road is wide but you don't have rules" said Mario, snapping at him.

"You're okay" asked Mario as he crouched down beside Bela.

"I'm good, but my feet hurt" Bela said, holding her bandaged leg.

"Come here" Mario helps martial to stand up.

The sight made Dira even more angry. He always acts because he has been stamped as a student who acts and bully weak students.

Because of that, Bela and Mario did not go to the cafeteria. They choose to sit in the classroom while opening a textbook. And Bela will follow him because he wants to study earnestly this time.

"Hey, meet me Brandon" said one of the students who smiled broadly as he looked at Bela.

"Hi, Bela" Sahit Bela kindly.

He received a dudik Brandon in front of him. Then they had a little chat the study belt along with Mario. Although it was not liked by Mario, but he also could not refuse it.

After school Mario and Bela split up, so none of them knew that Bela and Mario lived in one house.

"Hmm careful" Ucal Mario with his flat face.

"Okay Mario, you are also yes dahhh" Sahut Bela along with a distinctive smile that he gave.

In the car Mario stared back at Bela, his lips twinkling a little ssnyum. He felt his world was refreshed again after Bela's arrival. Hope Bela will always be there and entertain Mario.

"Hey new boy" Dira came from an uninvited direction. He approached Bela with his gang.

"I? " Task Bela with her innocent face.

"Yes, just so you know that Mario is my girlfriend" he explained.

"Daughter? He didn't tell me you were his girlfriend. Are you just fantasizing? " Defense mockery on students who are always confident but continue to get rejected.

"Shut your mouth... " Dira was upset to hear Bela's words.

His hand wanted to slap Bela but unfortunately it failed because there was a teacher mother who passed near them. Dira undoes the intention to hit Bela and she chooses to leave.

"Review yes, I always monitor you" he said as he passed with his gang.

"Please" Bela said with a smile.

After school Bela tells about the first day he went to school with Mr. Taryo. He said many things in the car, the once quiet Bela now turned chatty.

At first it was very strange for Mr. Taryo, but more and more days it is getting more commonplace and accustomed. So pak taryo is no longer surprised by the nature of his adopted son.

"Do you like this school son" asked Mr. Taruo enthusiastically.

"I really like dad, because I want the school to mean it" the cheerfulness was again painted on the girl's face.

"Alright, you are the right school so that later you can become a successful person" said Mr. Taryo's simple but meaningful advice.

"Ready"
