38 Aluna Stalks Kalea

The exam period is starting. Before that, Zeline kept asking to study together with Kalea even though she often played more and wasn’t focused. However, because Kalea’s patience was running out, the girl with the brunette hair let out her anger, and that made Zeline’s guts shrink. After seeing Kalea angry, Zeline became more focused and stayed away from her cellphone while studying.

Kalea didn’t accept to study together during the two weeks of the exam. She wants to focus on being able to maintain her values. Arthur didn’t come to the apartment either, maybe because he was afraid to disturb her and couldn’t stand his lust just being with Kalea in the same place. The man decided to refrain from coming and meeting Kalea.

Kalea was very happy, although sometimes her thoughts crossed to Arthur, that perverted man.

After trying hard, she finally finished two weeks of exams. She is just waiting for the results and she will enjoy the semester break in peace.

Kalea stared at the screen showing her study results for the semester. Its value rises to its highest position. She had expected this to happen because she had more free time than when she was still working at the restaurant and often quarreled with Freya. The girl walked to the lecturer’s room, who had given her the opportunity to be the lecturer’s assistant for one semester yesterday.

“Mr. Garren,” Kalea called, knocking on the door. A man with golden blonde hair seemed to stop his writing activity, the man smiled sweetly at Kalea.

“Come in.”

Kalea entered the special room belonging to her lecturer.

“What’s wrong? You already know your study results?” Garren asked so attentive to his college students. Garren recently taught at the campus. He taught for about three years and immediately got a pretty good position. Not only on campus, Garren is very active in participating in seminars or educational programs. Therefore, he needed an assistant to help him when Garren was too busy with other activities that couldn’t be bothered and couldn’t be replaced by others.

.....

Garren is very liked by college students, especially female college students, because of his handsome face, easy-to-understand and not boring way of learning. Not only that, Garren was really polite. Her attitude deserves a thumbs up, Kalea really respects her lecturer. To be honest, Garren was a man that Kalea thought could be said to be near perfect. Although she didn’t know more about Garren, but she thought Garren was better than Arthur.

They both treat women well, it’s just that Arthur’s behavior is too excessive and perverted.

No, Kalea didn’t want to equate Arthur with the lecturer she respected so much.

“Yes, sir. I’m glad that the grade has gone up quite a bit,” Kalea replied with a faint smile.

“Thank God, I knew you could. Then what?” Garren asked.

“Um ... I just wanted to thank you for giving me the opportunity to become a teaching assistant,” Kalea said, a little embarrassed to say it. Garren was slightly flabbergasted, then a warm smile followed the man’s face.

“You deserve it, Kalea. Thanks for helping me out this semester too. You’ve been really helpful,” Garren replied. “I hope you can help me again next semester.”

Kalea looked up, looking at the lecturer. “Eh? Can I do it again?”

Garren nodded. “Sure, I’m still very busy going forward. But if you have any objections, that’s fine. I’ll make another vacancy,” Garren continued.

“No! I don’t mind, sir!” Kalea exclaimed so excitedly that it made Garren a little surprised. The man chuckled softly.

“In that case, okay.”

Kalea couldn’t help but feel happy when she got the trust again to become a teaching assistant. The only thing she can be proud of is that, because she doesn’t work anymore so she doesn’t have any other skills. After that, Kalea asked for permission to leave the room.

“Lea! You know what?!” Zeline said, while Kalea was tidying up her books.

“Why? How do you score?” Kalea asked.

“Look!” Zeline showed the screen of her luxury cellphone to Kalea. The screen displayed the campus page for the blonde girl’s grade results.

“Did your grades go up?” freewebnove(l).com

“Yes! Oh my god, I never thought I could do it!” Zeline exclaimed so cheerfully. Kalea was also happy, she felt responsible for Zeline because she was the one who helped the beautiful girl study. With hard work, and patience that is drained out, in the end the results do not betray the effort. “Thanks, I can’t deny anymore but you really helped me,” Zeline said, smiling broadly showing her teeth that were lined up neatly and white.

“Sure. Anyone can do it if they have the will and focus.”

“... yes, I know. I’m too lazy and I play a lot.”

They laughed together and didn’t realize that several people were paying so much attention to their closeness.

“See, I’m getting suspicious of Zeline. Could it be that Zeline took advantage of Lea?”

“Does Lea know the gossip about that arrogant girl?”

“Ew, I’m sure Zeline took advantage of Lea’s kindness.”

“Or maybe Lea got caught and did this and that with a lot of guys?”

“Huh? I don’t think so. Nothing has changed about her. It should have been if Lea had been a man’s mistress or something, something luxurious would have been attached to her.”

“Hmm, you’re right. Lea is still as usual, having no money to take care of herself.”

“Hey, Luna. Have you asked Lea about that? You’re close to her.”

Aluna, who had been mostly silent and let her friends talk about Kalea and Zeline, was now looking at them. “I do, but I’m still not too sure ...” replied Aluna.

“Are you sure you let your best friend from high school hang out with someone like Zeline?”

“Of course not! But Lea really looks like she’s been brainwashed by that woman. She even told me to be friends with that person too.”

“Wow, are you serious?”

Aluna ignored it, she glanced at Kalea and Zeline, who were still talking. Her curiosity was running high, she couldn’t allow herself to be completely clueless about Kalea. Moreover, she felt that her best friend had recently been with Zeline more often. Aluna decided not to go home with her friends, she wanted to be with Kalea.

“Lea!” Aluna called with a big smile that graced her cute face.

Kalea and Zeline looked surprised, Zeline’s face returned flat and didn’t even want to see Aluna. “Oh, Luna. What’s wrong?” Kalea said, smiling back.

“Are you going home now? Let’s go home together! We haven’t done it in a long time. Oh, how about we go to a cafe? Don’t worry, I’ll treat you!” Aluna said at length and didn’t seem to let Kalea answer one question first.

“It-”

“Ah, but! Are you going to work at a restaurant today? I forgot,” Aluna interrupted, her face feeling guilty. However, Kalea was the one who felt the most guilty. Because, in fact, she hadn’t worked in the cursed place in quite some time. The restaurant was closed because the owner was imprisoned.

On the other hand, Zeline who heard Aluna’s words was a little nervous because she was the only one who knew Kalea’s secret.

“Me first,” Zeline said back to her seat, letting Kalea face Aluna alone.

“T-that ... I’ll tell you about it later,” Kalea replied with a stiff smile. “Let us go home.”

“Eh? You wanna go straight home? Let’s go to the cafe, I’ll treat!” invite Aluna is still stubborn.

“We can do that later, I feel bad for you.”

She pursed her lips, annoyed. “You still shy to me!”

Kalea didn’t reply, she just asked Aluna out of class to go home with her. Kalea didn’t want to talk about it with her friends. However, this only made Aluna even more suspicious.

“Lea, I’m serious! Is there a part time vacancy at your workplace? I wanna try working between holidays,” Aluna said, still insisting on finding out what happened to Kalea.

Kalea looked surprised, she tried to neutralize her face again as before. “I’ll tell you more later.”

Alana raised an eyebrow, suspicious. “Hmm, okay. But you were fine there, right?” the girl asked. Kalea just nodded with a bitter smile.

“Yeah, take it easy.”

Aluna squinted her eyes, there was no doubt about it. There’s something not quite right about Kalea. She couldn’t just sit still and not know at all what was happening. Aluna decided to find out more about her own best friend.

The next day, Aluna waited in the usual alley of Kalea’s house. She waited a very long time and almost gave up. It seems that Kalea will not leave the house at all during this holiday period. Or maybe she has a lot to do in the house first. Aluna doesn’t know at all.

Aluna immediately got ready when she saw Kalea coming out of the alley and walked a little towards the highway to stop a taxi. Aluna started to follow the vehicle a little further, so it wouldn’t be obvious that she was following Kalea. Aluna was curious, what her best friend would do.

For a long time, Aluna followed the taxi and finally arrived at an elite area with a luxury apartment at its center. Aluna knows the area very well. The taxi that Kalea was traveling in stopped right at the apartment. As she waited for Kalea to get out of the taxi, Aluna’s eyes widened when someone came out of nowhere and looked very different from what she had seen before.

“Is that ... Lea?” Aluna muttered, very surprised.

She had never seen Kalea with simple makeup but immediately radiated the aura of her best friend’s beauty. Even the brunette’s hair, which was always in a ponytail when she was on campus, now unraveled beautifully.

“What does she wanna do there?” She muttered again because Kalea was still standing there as if waiting for someone. Aluna glanced at an approaching car and stopped in front of the apartment. It’s not just any ordinary car.

Aluna was mesmerized when a man got out of the luxury car, even though it wasn’t very clear but his figure was really handsome, she even felt like she was dreaming. Aluna was even more surprised when the handsome man walked up to Kalea and they talked as if they had known each other for a long time.

Unknowingly, Aluna tightened her grip on the steering wheel. She had actually seen it with her own eyes, her mind was already starting to turn to something negative when she saw Kalea there.

“Lea ... what exactly are you doing?”
