They both walked side by side with the other students to their own classes.
"Ruby,?" (rice)
Ruby stopped hearing someone from behind calling her name.
"Rice, the boy again, he does nothing to get close to you all the time" sintia does not accept seeing his still very pure friend interfere with rice's rich daughter and certainly ruby's business rivals. He could have had the audacity to hurt ruby one day." (sintia)
"Just a minute, rice is a good boy, no need to think of anything" (ruby)
*****
It's like ruby knew what her best friend was thinking.
"Ruby, I'd like to talk to you at noon in the cafeteria" rice ngos running at ruby.
"What's wrong?" (ruby)
"I'll tell you in the cafeteria at noon, don't forget it." rice came running again, leaving ruby and her friend sintia in her class.
"Ruby come on, we can be late."
Ruby and sintia are about to enter their classes.
After a few hours the teacher explained that recess time had finally come.
"Ruby I'm hungry let's go for lunch" (sintia)
"Of course, because I also have an appointment in the cafeteria this afternoon." (ruby)
"Then let's get going."
Ruby and sintia cleaned up their scattered books and left the classroom on their way to the cafeteria for lunch.
"Hay ruby, I'm over here." (rice)
Ruby looked at the noise, and it turned out rice was waiting for her.
"Ruby, don't tell me the man you promised in the cafeteria is rice." (sintia)
"So what? Says he wants to say something."
"Is that what he said this morning when he met you in front of our class?"
"Yes, it seems important enough, let's go there"
Ruby immediately made her way to rice and sintia could not help but follow ruby's footsteps from behind, in fact she didn't like it if ruby was as close to rice as her other family like carllo's brother from rice, because sintia was always worried about ruby's safety, and she knew she was being treated unfairly by her stepmother and stepsisters so she was afraid that her mother would blame ruby for being friends with their enemies.
"Hay, please sit" (rice)
"Why does it feel so good today?" (ruby)
"Because I need your help" (rice)
"Rice don't ask ruby to do anything weird" (sintia)
"Hey, listen to me" (rice)
"Yes, sintia let's hear what rice has to say first."
"Be good."
"Ruby, you know I can't say no to papa and carllo's requests, can I?" (rice gusting)
"So what? , did they ask you to do anything "(ruby)
"Yes, exactly, do you want to help me? "(rice tugging his favorite pupil)
"It's not hard, you just have to come to the party with me"
"Party?"
"Well, father and brother carllo insisted I come, saying he wanted to introduce his two sons to all his business colleagues."
* the day before
"Dad, why do I have to come to this party, I have other things to do, you can just bring brother carlo" (rice)
"Don't you get it? This party is not just a party, they intend to show everyone if he has some sons whom they can count on in the future, of course I should not lose to them, and of course you should come.
"But dad" (rice)
" you should come, all of our guests will be entrepreneurs from all over the world, but in one way or another it is influenced by the rumors that the head of the mysterious unity resource group will also be present at the party, as these entrepreneurs want to attend and want to build connections in person with their leaders as well as attending these ordinary parties isa chance to make a business and power." (carl ayah rice)
"So why should we all be present when our company is strong, we have many wonderful bodyguards" (rice)
"Rice what you still don't understand is what dad says, it's not about Numbers, it's about great ability and support that's behind them. If we had 100 bodyguards but the opposing company had one person from the unity resource group security company then our forces would still be nothing compared to them "(carllo tries to pass the word on to her brother rice).
"Why is it that they are so good at fighting can kill hundreds of people at once?" (rice asks her brother with a slightly confused expression)
"Rice, this is not just about fighting, what do you think would happen if one of our guards killed a man who might have malicious intent on our family?" (carllo)
"Of course, if it was murder, the law would demand it" (rice).
"Exactly, but if that person is one of the unity resource group then there won't be any law against them."
"Is it really like that"
"Of course you have to come, I don't want to know"
(rice's father answered his youngest son's plain question while leaving the two of them still sitting in the living room.)
"Brother must help me, nothing will change if I don't come"
"Rice, what's so hard about coming to a party, then you can drive straight home by the driver, and he said that he likes young people, so papa made you come"
"So is he a creepy old man?"
"I don't know either, but he's the founder of that company, and the unity resource group has stood firmly by about five years ago, so he could be a master craftsman's parent and also understand business so his company is growing rapidly and incredibly powerful to be feared by big business entrepreneurs all over the world, While many of those have tried to fight against one of the major gangsters but still they can't touch unity resource group." (carllo)
"But brother, even if I never went to such a party, it would be awkward for me to stand in the middle of a crowd." (rice)
"Then you can bring your friend, anyone"
Hearing this small rice's brain immediately thought of bringing ruby along, maybe if he came along it would be more fun.
"All right, I'll come and take my friends out with me." (rice)
"It's up to you to come."
"All right" (rice immediately stood up in a cheerful countenance and left smiling at the thought of ruby's face coming to the party with her and leaving her in the living room looking astonished.
"What was wrong with the boy, when he didn't want to come and get so upset but why is his face now glowing like that?" (carllo)
* the night before this is over
