Bab 41: Ananto: An Unlikely Ally

T-10 Days to Incident

#Tom's Classroom

As Tom watched the video with awe, his hands started to shake. He knew very well who the girl and the boy in the video were. It was his savior, and he did not know her name or classroom. He did not know anything. The only thing he was sure about was that he liked the girl so much.

Ananto got curious, so he asked, "Do you perhaps know them? The video was not clear enough. It gets pixelated if you zoom in."

"What…? N…n…nOOO! Why would I? How would I?" Tom's response was way too shaky to raise suspicion, as he could not hide his anxiety.

"Well, you are always being tortured in the classroom; how would you know this girl or this boy? You were even absent when it began circulating." Ananto took his phone back from Tom.

But Tom was not paying attention. It was not that he was not worried sick for the girl; he was more worried about his involvement and what might become of him once the identity of this boy was revealed.
