Episode 3 ; Tears

Finally, the bell rang home from school. Rine glanced at Hannah, next to her. "WHY ARE YOU STARING AT ME, HUH!? ARE YOU GIVING ME A DEATH GLARE!?" Shouted Hannah. Rine just looked away and whistled.

Finally, the bulliers have stood up. They stared at Rine with a very sharp gaze with evil grins. Rine finally remembered that her grandmother told her to come home from school before 5 o'clock.

FLASHBACK

"Rine, don't come home at night, make sure as soon as possible, before 5 o'clock ... because-" said Grandma, interrupted by Rine, who ran away, still eating bread in her mouth. "Good grandma !! Mahaf! Rine have to eawt thiff bwead fiwst!! I'm late!! (His mouth is full of bread). (Rine have to eat this bread)

FLASHBACK OFF

Finally, after the teacher left the classroom, the bullies pulled Rine roughly to the school garden.

"HAHA! TRUCKED BY YOU !? NOW I CAN FINALLY CHALLENGE YOU!" shouted Vricille loudly.

UGH

Out of fear, Rine was silent and said softly "Eh ... yes ... what's the challenge?"

And finally, the bullies answered "AHAHAHA! YOU KNOW THE SECRET ROOM IN BASEMENT UNDER SCHOOL !? YES! I CHALLENGE YOU TO GO THERE!"

"W- WHAT !? NO POSSIBLE! IT'S DANGEROUS!! DON'T YOU REMEMBER TEACHER'S WORD? IT IS VERY SECRET AND WE ARE NOT ALLOWED IN!" Rine replied.

"YOU MUST! YOU'RE ALREADY MAKING ME ANGRY! DON'T CARE!" Shouted Zaquine.

DEG

"Ca... can i do it tomorrow or not? It's not that I'm afraid, but my grandmother told me to come home before 5 o'clock ...."Asked Rine.

"NOT NOW!" Gionetta suddenly.

Then, Crystaline explained to Rine "I don't care, you go in alone, no matter how many snakes are there, how many ghosts are there, the important thing is-" Suddenly, Rine fled quickly to the bus. The 5 Bulliers were angry and tried to chase them with merciless eyes.

Finally Rine managed to escape, she knew they were getting angry and she was getting more and more in danger. But, it's not like she's even safe, uh- the clock is already half past six. Rine so could only sigh.

Arriving in front of Grandma's house, Rine was still afraid of being angry. But she entered slowly ... and chaos ensued.

"PLEASE WAKE UP DEAR!!!! DEAR! WAKE UP !!! WAKE UP !!" Shouted Grandma, crying.

Rine was very surprised and sad. Apparently, grandpa fell to the floor unconscious. Rine was crying and went to her grandmother.

"Grandma !! Grandma !! What happened-"

BUGH!!!!!

Grandma slapped Rine. "YOU ARE STUPID! I TOLD YOU TO GET HOME EARLY! I WANTED TO SAY WHAT HAPPENED TO Grandfather, BUT YOU IGNORED ME!!!"

"This morning Rine was late for school, Grandma, sorry ..." Rine said sadly.

"Your grandfather has been short of breath since yesterday! Grandma wants you to come home early so we can check him together at the hospital!"

"But why 5 o'clock ???" Rine asked curiously.

"Grandfather himself said it. Yesterday, he said that he would be safe before 5 o'clock."

"Ouch ... Grandma, let's take grandpa to the hospital!" Take Rine.

Arriving at the hospital, grandfather had not even been diagnosed and he was already seriously ill, so he entered the ICU (Intensive Care Unit). Grandma and Rine sat languidly in front of the grandfather's room.

After being diagnosed, "Excuse me, with grief, your grandfather has stage 4 colon cancer. But his life survived. It's just that maybe his life is only 2 years away." Said Sister Suzzy.

Suddenly, the grandmother fell to the floor. "GRANDMA !!! GRANDMA!?!? GRANDMA WHAT HAPPENED!?"

Finally, the grandmother was also diagnosed.

"Excuse me, your grandmother ... uh ... sorrowfully ..."

???

"Has passed away from a heart attack" said Sister Suzzy softly.

Rine felt stabbed by a knife. She was very sad and cried very hard. Her grandmother has been supporting her all this time, why did she have to die?

"Tomorrow will be buried in Amethyst Street yes. I am sorry." Said Sister Suzzy sadly.

Finally, Rine languidly returned home alone. The clock showed 11pm. When I got home, it felt so lonely ... Rine was alone now. What will happen to her?
