7 A Game

Ayunda still looked annoyed because in the morning she was irritated by Bisma.

Her good mood turned ugly after the incident, not to mention that Ayunda was summoned by her lecturer.

"Ayu ... are you okay?"

Asked Imel, Ayunda's good friend.

Ayunda lowered her head with a languid face without any more enthusiasm.

"I feel like my life is ruined, Mel... how can I be this unlucky."

Imel patted Ayunda's shoulder with a smile.

"Just drop it, you should immediately go to Mr. Wira's room before he makes things difficult for you again."

Ayunda took a deep breath, then went to Mr. Wira's room.

Sure enough, when she got to the room, Ayunda was scolded a little by the lecturer because she would often missed the class and also have her assignments piling up.

"If this continues, even if your grades are good in every subject, you will not be able to pass the selection for the scholarship."

Ayunda just kept quiet while lowering her head admitting her mistake.

Mr. Wira started to feel pity for Ayunda. After all, Ayunda's father was Mr. Wira's good friend. Mr. Wira knew what happened to Ayunda but the campus will not be able to understand it, especially because the issue of scholarships must be given to people who really needed it and deserved it.

"Finish all of your assignments this week, I'll take care of the rest. You can go."

Ayunda was so happy to hear that.

"Thank you, Sir..." Ayunda said goodbye but there were some students who saw that, they started gossiping that Ayunda had a relationship with Mr. Wira.

Ayunda knew what kind of look they were giving her at this time.

(Being poor is bad, because condescending looks always led to lowly people but if I'm still like before, they'll only look at me with awe and don't dare to look at me with contempt.) Ayunda muttered with a sad face. She kept walking as she lifted her head regardless of what they were saying.

An incoming message came to Ayunda's cellphone.

* Hurry to class, the lecture has started, you don't forget that this time is Mr. Rian's class, do you? *

Ayunda immediately ran when she read the message.

"Shit. How could I forget about it."

Mr. Rian was the youngest lecturer at the university, he was only 26 years old when he was teaching at the university.

At the beginning, when Mr. Rian entered, Ayunda and her friends made a bet on who could invite Mr. Rian to eat in the canteen, she wanted to be the winner of the bet.

Because they were the gang of rich kids, they were not afraid to make fun of a professor.

Because Ayunda was the most beautiful woman on the campus and also with her sweet face, she made Mr. Rian's heart, which was once cold and indifferent, melted at Ayunda and began to accept her good intentions, but one day a student got jealous and spread about their bet.

Mr. Rian was very angry, but he could not do anything about Ayunda at that time, but he often made things difficult for Ayunda lately, because she was now nobody.

Ayunda was the one who was rejected the most by Mr. Rian.

She continued to run and was noticed by other friends.

"It must be Mr. Rian's class...,"

"Yeah ... what else that could try to make her crazy like that."

"Thank, God ... let me know her taste. Pretentiously beautiful and rich, she thought there is no sky above, she turns to fall ill for forgiveness."

That was all the words of the people who saw Ayunda.

Arrived in front of the class, Ayunda accidentally bumped into someone, until the man fell and Ayunda hit the door, it surprised everyone.

"Ouch ..." a small groan could be heard from Ayunda.

"Are you okay...?"

The man asked Ayunda while stretching out his hand to help Ayunda, but because she was annoyed, Ayunda brushed off the man's hand which had made her hand hurt because she had hit the door.

Mr. Rian came out to take a look and glared at Ayunda.

Ayunda hadn't realized it yet because she still kept her head down while holding her hand.

"Again, you're the one causing trouble." Hearing Mr. Rian's voice, Ayunda immediately raised her head and was surprised to see Mr. Rian's gaze at her even though it was not the first time.

(He still hates me, )

Ayunda muttered in her heart.

She got up from her seat and greeted Mr. Rian.

"Good morning, sir ... and I also apologize for my mistake."

"Stand outside, or you can leave!!" said Mr. Rian to Ayunda.

(Again ...?! ) muttered Ayunda with a sad face.

"You're a new student, right?"

Mr. Rian asked the man, the man nodded his head.

"Come on in..."

Ayunda looked up and looked at the man, how shocked Ayunda was to see that man.

"You ..."

The man smiled at Ayunda.

"Hii... and sorry for what happened earlier."

Ayunda can only smile back and nod her head in embarrassments.

She was the man who helped Ayunda at that time, but all she remembered was that when she asked for money to pay for the public transportation costs she was riding. When Ayunda fainted, she didn't remember the face of the man who had helped her.

Ayunda could have left at that time, but she didn't want to burden Mr. Wira anymore, at least with her receiving punishment from Mr. Rian, Ayunda could still get grades from him.

All the female students shouted seeing the man enter the class because of his good looks.

"Wow ... he's very handsome."

"Finally there is also a handsome person in our class besides Mr. Rian."

Mr. Rian asked them to stay calm.

The man was asked to introduce himself.

"Good morning everyone, my name is Brian Danuarta. Because my name and Mr. Rian's are similar, you can just call me 'Brian'."

Mr. Rian asked Brian to take an empty seat. After that, he began to teach the class. While Ayunda was still standing at the door, she was waiting for Mr. Rian's class to finish.

It had been half an hour of lessons and Brian was still staring at Ayunda from the window.

(What was actually the girl's fault that made this lecturer so mad at her?!)

Brian muttered to himself.

"Sorry, Sir ... "

Brian called Mr. Rian while raising his hand.

"Yes, What is up? "

Brian stood up and said something that made the class speechless.

"What was the girl's fault that she had to be punished like a high school student at the door, we are now college students, you should be able to tolerate her a little. Moreover, she must have accidentally been late, seeing from her efforts to run here until she fell and injured her hand. I think there is no reason for you to punish her again."

Ayunda was surprised to hear that, while Mr. Rian was silent at Brian's words.

"Is that so...?" Mr. Rian asked Brian coldly.

"Yes," Brian replied loudly.

"Please come out then!"

Everyone was shocked to hear Mr. Rian's words and begin to gossip about Mr. Rian who was kicking Brian out of the classroom just for defending Ayunda.
