Being Supervised

Kaino had finished his exams and went near the second-year Accounting student exam room. He wanted to meet Taera. Apart from missing her for not seeing Taera for a few days, he also hasn't been in contact with Taera for a long time. Their exams were one hour apart, Kaino patiently waited for Taera.

He then saw that Stefa had left the exam room. Looks like Taera still hasn't finished doing the exam.

Kaino then greeted Stefa, "Hello, Stef."

Stefa turned her head and found Kaino sitting in front of their exam room.

"Eh, Kaino, want to meet Taera, huh?" Stefa asked.

"Yes, I'm worried about her, about the problem with Yola," said Kaino in a little whisper so as not to make a noise. At that time the exam was still not finished. Maybe because Stefa was able to do her exam or maybe she was tired of the questions, she left first.

"Don't worry, I've taught Yola a lesson," said Stefa, then giggled.

"You're cool, Stef. I'm a friend who can't depend on Taera. When she needed it, I couldn't even help yesterday because I wasn't feeling well," said Kaino.

"It's okay, Taera told me earlier. Just help strengthen Taera, so she's excited, okay. I'm going home first. Tomorrow's exam will be difficult. I want to study first," said Stefa.

"Okay. Be careful, Stef," said Kaino.

Stefan nodded then said goodbye.

While Kaino was still waiting for Taera. A few moments later, the Accounting students came out of the exam room. Exam time is up. Taera looked at Kaino, who was sitting in front of their exam room.

"Kaino, what are you doing here?" Taera asked.

"Look for frogs. Of course, I'm looking for you," said Kaino.

They then laughed together.

"Are you okay?" Taera asked, remembering that Kaino said he wasn't feeling well.

"Yeah, I'm still a little bit unwell, but how to deal with it? It's an exam like this," Kaino replied.

"You're too studious to study until you get sick. Don't be forced, Kai. What if you faint? Just look at you when you're sick. I can't bear it anymore," said Taera.

Kaino's heart fluttered. It had been a long time since he had felt Taera's attention. Even though he has to accept the fact that Taera is now Ardilo's girlfriend, he still wants Taera to pay attention to him.

"Yeah, I also want my GPA to go up. You know I'm a perfectionist. I don't like seeing grades other than A on my grade transcripts," said Kaino.

"You are arrogant, just because you never got a B," said Taera.

Kaino was just whiny.

"Want to eat together? Am I hungry?" Taera asked.

Kaino looked at Taera closely, "You're not that sensitive, girl."

"Insensitive, what do you mean?" Taera asked, confused.

"Yes, when you eat together with me, it's not good when people see it. Then you will have another problem with Ardilo. It's not over yet, right? The hearing is only Saturday," said Kaino.

"That's right. I told Ardilo first," Taera said, then took out her handphone from her bag.

"You don't want to meet Ardi, do you?" asked Kaino.

"No, today he has a gathering with DEB members and other department heads," Taera replied after sending a message to Ardilo asking for permission to eat with Kaino.

"Why did Stefa come home earlier?" asked Kaino.

"Wow, she must have forgotten. Wait a minute, I'll chat with her first," said Taera.

"Okay," said Kaino.

While waiting for Taera, Kaino looked around. He seemed to see someone watching them. But Kaino only glanced at that person, not knowing who it was.

"Come on, let's eat together. What do you want to eat?" Taera asked.

"What's that? Just the soup. Let's make it warm," said Kaino.

"Okay, let's eat chicken soup," said Taera.

"The one near the park?" asked Kaino.

"Yes, where we usually eat," Taera replied.

"Alright, let's go," said Kaino.

"Did you bring your car?" Taera asked.

"No. I was with my boarding house friend. Why?" Kaino asked back.

"Yeah, just with me. I'm the one driving," Taera replied.

Kaino looked at Taera in disbelief, "Are you sure?"

"So what?" Taera asked, confused.

"You're just riding a car together with a guy, just Ardi. Are you sure people won't misunderstand?" Kaino asked back.

"No, don't worry. People will know that you're my best friend. Come on. I'm hungry. Exams drain my energy," said Taera.

"Okay," said Kaino, then followed Taera who was already walking first.

They then immediately walked towards the parking lot. Even though there were a lot of students there, they just relaxed. Because they both have the conviction that they are friends, nothing more. Whether there will be a misunderstanding or not, for Taera if she has permission to go to Ardilo, she will eat with Kaino, then it's okay.

"I don't feel well, don't I," said Kaino when she got into Taera's car.

"Not good, why?" Taera asked who was ready to drive the car.

"It's like someone's been watching us all along. But I don't know, is it just my feelings, or is there someone who is secretly following us," said Kaino while looking around.

"It's only your feeling. Don't worry, let's go," Taera said, then drove her car to their favorite place to eat chicken soup.

When they got there, it turned out that not many people had come because it was still not lunchtime. After looking for a seat and selecting the menu. They waited while chatting. They did not realize that from a distance someone was watching them. Kaino and Taera joked with each other and enjoyed their time hanging out without realizing that someone was taking their picture from a distance.

"You've got the photos, right?" someone asked.

"Yes, it's very clear. If it's like this, I think Ardilo will be jealous," someone said and then laughed.

"Get lost. Taera, one problem isn't over yet, there will be more problems," said another.

"Now we send to Ardilo the photos, make sure to choose clear photos," someone said.

"Okay."

***

Ardilo is gathering together with the DEB of the SEB Faculty of Economics at the secretariat. They discussed the matter of the hearing with the SRC, which will be held on Saturday. Ervan and Yuna are quite disappointed with this hearing. They were worried about the position of Yola, Ardilo, and Stefa. Unfortunately, Yuna, who saw the real incident, was ready to testify that it was Yola who started first. And she will defend Ardilo and Stefa. While Ervan tried to be neutral. He wants the best for the SEB Faculty of Economics.

Ardilo's phone vibrates. There is an incoming chat from an unknown number. Ardilo's face looked shocked. The others noticed the sudden change in Ardilo's face.

"What's wrong?" Stefa asked.

"What's wrong, Ardi?" Yuna asked.

"It's okay. Nothing important. Well, let's continue," said Ardilo, then wanted to continue their conversation.

Yola, who knew what the chat was about from the number, tried to hold back her smile. She knew it was a chat containing pictures of Kaino and Taera chatting and walking together. Yola wanted to know how Ardilo felt. Yola pretended not to know and continued their discussion earlier.

He must be jealous. Hopefully, this can make them fight again. I can't wait for them to fight and break up. At least, this will break even with my sacrifice yesterday, Yola thought.
