Chapter 11: Under The Oak Tree
A gust of wind blew away the remnants of dry leaves that had fallen to the ground for a long time. Emma was pensive to herself, sitting on a one and a half meter high concrete wall that fenced off a large oak tree that became one of the historic icons of Jardin University.
Emma was waiting for her ballet class which would start in about an hour. Her first hang out in Handway city didn’t make a good impression. As a result, Emma had been thinking about it until now.
Unfortunately, today Emma didn’t find ‘Lary and the gang’ coming to the campus. From the first meeting, Emma could already smell how losers the boys were. “They like to bully the weaker ones. That’s why they are losers.” Emma muttered to herself.
Actually, Emma was curious to meet them. But if she thought about it again, maybe not having a chance to meet those losers was a good thing. Emma had to remember that she shouldn’t be looking for trouble in her new life. Emma was a very normal ordinary girl. Good manners, love the peace, and the ballet was her life.
She lifted her face upwards, looked up at the branches of the almost bald tree and let her breath spread into the air. White steam appeared as a result of heat colliding with cold air. It was so quiet.. Emma should be at peace, but her heart didn’t say that.
“This tree was planted by Helena Tonring. An intelligent female professor who was one of the founders of this University.” Suddenly a deep voice startled Emma. Then she turned her head.
“Oh.. You..” Emma muttered with a smile. There was still a look of surprise on her face.
.....
“Waiting for an additional class? All regular classes are over for today.” Calvin sat down on the wall, one meter beside Emma. Didn’t want to get too close to her, so that the beautiful girl wouldn’t feel uncomfortable.
She nodded slightly, “I’m waiting for ballet class.” she answered by holding up a pink paper bag with a picture of a swan. Then her gaze was drawn to Calvin’s right hand. “What happened to your hand?”
Calvin glanced over his back to his right palm which was wrapped in a bandage “Oh.. I got myself hurt when I fell off with my motorbike yesterday. The road was very slippery.”
Emma narrowed her eyes as she continued to stare at the man suspiciously. She immediately remembered the events of last night that she had almost forgotten, “Yesterday I saw a crazy motorbike chase on the road. Could you be one of them?”
“Haha.. Seriously.. I’m not one of them. But they did come after me last night.”
“What happened?” Emma asked curiously.
“They were splashed with road puddle from my motorcycle tires when I passed them.” He answered easily.
“Ah.. It just like that?” Her mumble sound floated.
“Where did you see me?” Now, it was Calvin who was curious. The incident when he was been chased by the thugs, happened when it was very late at night. And the route he took, was not the good one for visitors who didn’t know the Handway City well.
“Yesterday I went to Jen Marrie Street. When I got home, I saw your motorbike in front of the bus stop nearby.” She answered.
Jen Marie Street?! It felt like the street name was like a firecracker that went off and exploded right in Calvin’s ear. Why the hell did Emma come to that hell’s door?! Who invited her?!
Calvin tried to calm down, he cleared his throat and looked at Emma with a normal stare, “Sorry, didn’t want to interfere with your business. But, what were you doing there? How did you know there was a Jen Marrie street in this city?”
Shouldn’t Calvin’s question make Emma suspicious? As the daughter of a high-profile gangster, Emma had been taught since a kid to not tell too much about her personal life. Especially to foreigners. But wasn’t Emma a normal girl right now? She was not a part of the gangster anymore. What would happen if someone knew what she ate last night and where she slept? Nothing would happen.
“Lary took Roger and me going out to Jen Marrie Street.” She answered with piercing eyes. It seemed that Calvin knew something about the street.
Damn Lary! He shouldn’t have let the lizards get close to Emma. They like to prey on girls. All this time, they didn’t dare to act when Calvin was in class. Because of that, almost all the girls in his major class, haven’t become their victims. Even though Calvin didn’t know, what would happen to the girls in the other major and level.
“Emma,” Calvin rubbed his neck with an uneasy face, “I hope you don’t think that I’m trying to be too close to you.. But if I may, I advise you not to go down the Jen Marrie Street again. And I think a girl like you doesn’t seem to get along with Lary and his friends either.” He closed with a small laugh, so he didn’t sound too annoying.
“A girl like me?” Emma pointed to her own face with raised eyebrows.
Calvin nodded stiffly, his face looked surprised and confused “Y, yes.. I mean a nice and gentle girl like you. A.. am I wrong?” For some reason, Calvin felt a gloomy aura emanating from the two beautiful eyes in front of him.
Hearing Calvin’s explanation, Emma then turned her gaze forward. She blinked a few times, until her senses came together again. Then she smiled faintly and turned to Calvin again.
“Ah.. That’s right. Sorry, I thought that you called me a night girl or something.. Haha..” She covered her mouth with her four tiny fingers as she laughed.
Calvin laughed with relief, “There’s no way I would think like that, Emma. From the first time I met you, I could already feel what kind of girl you are. Honestly, I admire you for being so passionate about achieving your ballet goals.” he said cheerfully and sincerely.
If it wasn’t Calvin, Emma might have judged that this guy was trying to flirt with her. But Emma herself could also sense that Calvin was not like any other guys who were so flirtatious because of Emma’s attractive appearance. From the start, Calvin was genuinely helpful and friendly. And what touched Emma’s heart even more... that Calvin didn’t just act like that to Emma. She often saw him usually helping anyone with his sweet smile.
Wait! But why did Emma even imagine all the goods of Calvin? She hastily shook her head slightly to regain consciousness. While Calvin just continued to stare at her in surprise, though still with his charming thin smile.
“By the way..” Emma changed the subject. “Do you know what happened on Jen Marrie Street? Actually, yesterday I had an unpleasant experience there.”
Calvin nodded. It seemed like Emma had sensed how crazy that damn street was. There was no point in hiding it from Emma either. It’s good that she knew how dangerous the road was so that later she wouldn’t dare to go there anymore.
“Jen Marrie Street is a bad street. It’s a nest of illegal gamblers. In fact, it’s also run by gangster group who likes to disturb people.”
