11. Bad Luck a.k.a. Lucky

-They say that handsome people are relative and ugly people are a reality, but for Maura, an Erlangga is a strange creature that combines the two, handsome looks and ugly nature—

-classroom, 09.50 p.m., tense atmosphere. The encounter between a rare polar bear and a lion incarnation—

Upset, annoyed, and annoyed...

Three words that form a single letter are sufficient to describe Maura Magen's current condition. He spent an hour and a half pretending to be asleep just to outwit his roommate until he could safely sneak out of the dorm.

The goal is only one, namely to seize the file containing the letter sent by Erlangga.

But she ended up stuck with the commotion in the classroom, whether it was bad luck or good luck.

"So why are you here too?" Erlang asked, after clearing his throat enough to lighten the mood.

"Why are you here yourself? Want to find a ghost? " Instead of answering, Maura instead asked back.

It is common knowledge for all students, consumed by mystical stories from those they know, that this place is haunted at night.

Though clearly, it was just a hoax that was exaggerated so that timid students wouldn't set foot in the school, at least at night, when people could infiltrate the teachers' room to exchange their test results, you bastard!

I don't know how many times he and Luna planned that, considering that his brain was still below average.

One of Erlang's eyebrows rose. The girl in front of him was indeed full of surprises. Hurry up to find a ghost! He's just scared from earlier, damn it!

Erlang took a deep breath. The corners of his eyes traced the girl in front of him, though only faintly.

Her long hair was left loose in her pajamas, which were in the form of a long-sleeved dress with ivory white lace. If at first glance, the girl looks more like a kuntilanak than a human, it's only natural that she immediately shouted earlier.

"What do you think ghosts can catch?" said Erlang.

'Maura Octavia Magen.'

Erlang tried to remember the three-syllable names. Although he admitted that he didn't know much about Maura, at a glance, he acknowledged the girl's courage to infiltrate here too.

'That means he lost, damn it! " Erlang grumbled in his heart.

"Yeah, who knows?"

"Look for a book, because I missed it this afternoon. Tomorrow we have an exam, "Erlang said, as he explained while holding up the book in his hand. "What are you doing here alone at night, looking for ghosts too?"

Gerr...

"Sorry, demons like demons and ghosts don't dare go near me. We've never been friends. You know the saying, it's forbidden to be close to strangers."

Erlang smiled wryly as he restrained himself from gaping. This girl is stressed or she doesn't understand.

"I'm looking for a file my friend left behind." Maura approached, "Can I borrow the flashlight?" I forgot to bring it, "Maura continued.

"Why are you looking for files at night? It can be tomorrow."

Erlang couldn't understand what the strange girl in front of her was thinking. If it's clear that tomorrow they will automatically take the exam, then this girl, does the exam tomorrow also need the file immediately?

"Tsk!! It's all because of you, huh. "

"What's wrong with me?" Erlang had just arrived, so where did he go wrong?

Maura sighed. He saw Erlang, who was wearing a look of concern and confusion.

"That's a file containing a copy of the letter you sent to me. My classmates are planning to distribute it tomorrow. So that's why you take the first step. "

"Which letter?"

"You lost your memory, it's Valentine's letter, stupid!"

"Ahh, the letter?" Erlang nodded as he remembered everything.

It was not a real letter, just a collection of insulting words that he made impromptu and quoted from various types of books unwillingly. If it weren't for losing the bet, how would he have done that? It was unlucky for him because it was the first love letter he ever wrote in his life.

Shucks!!

"Your class is also creative, and that is a sign that there is progress for class F to capture historical moments," Erlang replied casually.

Maura snorted in annoyance. It seemed that the polar bear in front of her did not understand what she meant.

"Your grandparents were creative! They want to spread the letter throughout the school, Mr. Erlangga Lorenzo! "

For a while, Erlang was silent. His brain seemed to think for a moment. If the news spreads, that means all students will know. If all the students already know, then it is possible that Sella also knows. In other words, he will be finished.

Erlang quickly tilted his head, quite stupid to lose a bet with Bintang. For this one, let him hide.

"Why didn't you tell me earlier? I'm here to help. This case is already on standby. "

Erlang handed over his book to Maura to hold while he walked around the room with a flashlight in his hand.

Maura rolled her eyes, bored. She's been wanting to say this all along, you bastard!

---The Best Valentine---

An hour and a half later, they gave up when there was no sign of the file to be found. Erlang shuffled, sitting against the wall with Maura, who had been breathing heavily several times.

"Are you sure the file is in this class?" asked Erlang.

"I'm sure!! My friend said that he left her in the last class."

Maura bit her inner lip nervously. His brow furrowed. Did he remember it wrong?

"Err... I guess it's not this class," Maura whispered.

Erlang immediately reflexed when he heard it. The man rolled his eyes. After struggling to find all the corners of the room, now his partner even doubts that this is the right class.

'Suicide right now, damn it! "

"Your joke isn't funny, I swear!" cried Erlang.

"Ish, seriously. It's like in the art class. "

Damn it!!

Erlang sighed heavily as he gently tapped his forehead. His face pointed to holding back annoyance as he looked at his watch, which was already almost midnight.

If this search continues, then it's a fix and he will return to his dorm at dawn.

"I give up. This can't go on anymore. " Erlang raised his hand.

"Well, then what about this? You're the one who said this case was on alert. "

"That one alert was an hour and a half ago. For now, the one standby for me is to go to bed. Damn it!! I have an exam tomorrow. " Erlang raised his voice in annoyance.

"Who is there?"

Degh...

Erlang looked at Maura. They both glared at the sound of the night watchman patrolling.

What else do they have now?

When the night watchman came inside, annoyed, Erlang pulled Maura to hide behind the door. The sound of their heartbeats colliding with stiff bodies squeezed against each other.

Erlang held his breath as well as Maura, who pressed hard while holding Erlangga's book in his arms. His eyes closed in fear.

"I think it's just my feelings," said the night guard before leaving to continue his patrol.
