"You who bully or are bullied are equally wrong in my opinion, the bully is a confident coward while the bully is a real coward," The serious Felix spoke unaware that he was being stared at with a flat face by the four of them, "Why are you looking at me like that?"
"Honestly, Felix..: how old are you?" ask Cain.
"Are you not an alien?" Teo and Tom were following each other.
Felix just breathed hard.
***
When he was about to get out of the school building, Felix felt something hit his head.
Cain, Teo and Tom immediately cried out hysterically as Felix picked up the paper that hit his head earlier.
"Why you?" felix was confused.
"Iiii..iiii....iettt..tttuuu pink paper!!!"
"Unfortunately you think I'm color blind, I know that too..."
Tan who was aware of Felix's confusion finally explained, "That's a paper warning from the pink ghost."
"What ghost? wait...warning?"
"Some of the students in this school got such pink paper, the sign is that the pink ghost has already set its target."
"There it is, it is called evil. Wanting a ghost or a human to litter carelessly is a crime!" Felix then ran back into the school building.
The four of them followed Felix.
"Kan, there's no one!" Teo hugged the trembling Tom.
"Have you ever gotten anything like this too?"
"Cain got a warning letter" Tan replied.
"So what happened? after getting the letter, how?"
Instead of answering, Cain ran away followed by Teo and Tom who shouted loudly.
"After that he said Cain was bullied for almost a month then the pink ghost returned looking for a new target," finally Tan who answered Felix's question.
Felix just put on his flat face and then rolled his eyeballs in annoyance.
***
On the way home on the bus, Felix didn't stop to ask Cain what was going on.
"When have you been so chatty?" Tan laughed a little.
Cain just kept yelling and babbling no matter what with Teo and Tom hugging each other.
While walking in the middle of the forest someone pelted Felix with a small stone, "Aw!"
Teo and Tom immediately embrace again while Felix searches for the origin of the throw and bravely enters into the dark forest.
He was called back, but Felix did not hear him and just kept running.
A while later Tan wanted to catch up with him but Felix had already come.
"Who are you?" Teo and Tom scream.
Felix answered by throwing a small stone at them.
"Yeahaa... Looks like Felix has been possessed!" Teo and Tom ran away.
Felix just smiled slantingly and Tan laughed loudly while Cain was angry because he was left running.
Teo and Tom arrive first because they don't stop running. Their clothes were soaked in cold sweat.
***
Cain rubbed his wet hair with a towel, came out of the bathroom immediately shouting and threw the towel in Felix's face when he saw Felix right in front of the door.
"So?" get rid of the right towel on his face.
"So what?"
"Say you've also had a warning letter and been bullied for almost a month?"
"Prepare your heart and your mind, buddy" Cain patted Felix on the shoulder.
"Haha that's right, just now in the forest I saw a shoe."
"A ghost can't have shoes?!" Cain, who only wears a towel, immediately ran up to his bed and into the blanket.
"You don't pretend to!"
Cain replied with an unclear chatter.
Before going to bed, Felix looked back at the pink paper, "Wait for me, you're the next person who..."
Felix who had been flipping through the paper still could not get any clues.
***
"Honestly, you're a little scared, aren't you?" ask Tan.
"Fearful? that's right... But where are Cain, Teo and Tom? When I woke up I didn't see Cain in his bed."
"Ah, that's.they go first, he said for now not wanting to get close to you."
"Basic!"
"It's not good to start the morning with a face like that" Luna joined Felix and Tan's dinner table.
"Good morning brother," said Tan.
Luna looked at Felix, "You didn't say hello to brother?"
Felix stood up and carried his food tray.
"Basic, impolite," Luna with a swing of her hand was about to hit Felix, but she turned around, "Come, we're off!" take Felix to Tan.
"You want salaman?" Felix with his flat face as he looked at Luna's frozen hand in front of her face.
Luna then simply forced a smile and rubbed Felix's head.
"What the hell!" Felix tidied his hair and left.
***
When he arrived at school Felix was immediately crowded mobbed by other children. Cain who fell asleep on his stool, when he woke up immediately shocked.
"We heard you got a pink letter?"
"Yes..."
They all responded by shouting, "What's written there?"
Felix showed me the paper, "Just like the others."
"You need to start being careful."
"What if you don't have to go to school for a month?"
"Are you kidding me? Why would I have to?"
"Now you are the target of the Pink Ghost."
"Keep why?"
"After 3 months he showed up again..."
"So do I have to adjust the arrival schedule so?" Felix laughed lightly.
They all fell silent and began to leave Felix's desk one by one, "We've warned you, well..."
Finally Felix could breathe a sigh of relief, "How could they know?"
"Something Teo and Tom know will be known to everyone" Cain laughed heartily.
"Based on both of them."
Teacher Guardian Class, Mr. Egan entered the classroom, "Today..." Not finished Mr. Egan's sentence, "Sir, the transfer boy got a pink letter."
The atmosphere of the class instantly rumbled instantly.
"It's been... Already, emmm... Felix don't think about it."
Felix answered only. But in his heart, Felix was very curious and determined to uncover who the perpetrators behind this all.
***
It's been almost a week but there's no sign of a pink ghost. Other children are interested in seeing what will happen to Felix so lately they follow the activities of Felix. There were also those who stayed away for fear, "It seems like even ghosts are afraid of Felix," Teo made his hand as a manual fan.
"qwertyuiopasdfghjklzxcvbnm," Tom spoke unclearly as he was eating his ice cream.
"What do you think Felix?" tanya Tan while lying in the field.
"Say you want to uncover who the pink ghost is?"
"Where do you start, now only in a lock without a key."
"Lock without key?" Teo was curious and woke up cleaning the grass that was stuck.
"That warning paper is the padlock, after that if he bothers me then I can find the key."
"What the hell does that mean?" Teo lay back down.
Although they were afraid but eventually began never to let Felix himself even Teo and Tom are timid always to class Felix and Cain if the break hours to see the state of Felix.
On September 1st, there was finally a sign of the Pink Ghost. Felix finds the bag he kept in the classroom filled with a pink liquid like blood dripping from Felix's bag and the wall of the class that says, "Hi Felix!" with pink paint.
Children who have just come from the school hall due to the announcement of the School Camping procurement. When I returned to class, there was a lot of hysterical shouting from my classmate Felix.
Unlike Felix who was smiling happily seeing that, "You've been scary for a long time too. You're not scared at all?" Cain looked at Felix who did not stop smiling.
***
Felix, who was happy, did not stop nagging while cleaning his bag, "Based on a brash ghost, is he colorblind? have seen that my bag is white, now"
"Later I'll ask Ms. Corliss for a new bag," Cain held a water hose for Felix.
"Just wait until I catch him, I'll ask for damages."
"Hi Felix," a voice made-up by Teo and Tom.
"The writing is clear if it's a woman's writing."
"Yes of course she's a girl" Teo replied.
"You guys love pink too" Felix replied.
Teo then snatches a water hose from Cain's hand and sprays Felix. The atmosphere in the courtyard of the home became noisy because of the actions of those who spray each other with water.
"Your holiday want to spend your water rations? Then from tomorrow you can't take a shower and drink water!" Miss Corliss is holding her waist.
They all stopped immediately.
Shortly thereafter Ms. Corliss took the hose and sprayed water on them.
"Mother!!!" Shouted those who were able to attack unexpectedly.
Ms. Corliss just laughed and did not stop watering instead adding to the volume of water by turning the water faucet.
Doctor Mari and Daisy who just came by opening the door of each car immediately took another hose of water and began to attack Bu Corliss.
They were all drenched if not for Luna stopping the flow of water, they would definitely not have stopped.
Luna prepared chocolate milk for all of them in the dining room after all finished changing clothes.
The rain fell making those who had finished playing water now cold. Seen from the outside the children run to pick up clothes that are sun dried, "You are like a wet clothesline outside it," said Luna.
"You insinuating us?" doctor Mari said, Miss Corliss and Daisy looked at Luna.
"Haha, I mean those five docks."
Doctor Mari is back to sipping her warm drink.
"But they should.(.Ms. Corliss looked back on her face) afraid that they might get the flu, "Luna didn't go on with her first sentence.
"You're scolding us?" Miss Corliss narrowed her eyes.
"Haha how could I dare ma'am," Luna stroked.
"But that was your bag why Felix?"
"Because of the paint at school."
"How can you?" ms. Corliss's question made the four of them look at Felix, wondering what Felix would say.
"The school is being renovated and workers there accidentally spilled paint,"
felix's reply made Cain, Tan, Teo and Tom look at him with a slanted smile and simultaneously sip his warm chocolate.
Seeing their behavior, Doctor Mari laughed, "Later to buy you five new bags" said Doctor Mari, who still hasn't stopped laughing.
Hearing that the 4 of them immediately had the face of sumringah.
"No. No docks, no docks," Felix steadily.
Felix was then stepped on by 4 feet under the table, "Aw... what the hell are you guys doing?"
***
Outside it looks dark, if we don't see the clock we think it's night. Heavy rain accompanied by lightning and thunder made many children run to the dining room to gather in fear.
"No problem in school, right?" Doctor Mari asked Felix that question when he was about to go back to the room.
"Now I'm starting to think psychologists can they read minds?"
Felix who was about to climb the stairs stopped his steps, "When do you want to counsel Felix again?"
"It's not yet time" Felix resumed his steps.
In Felix and Cain's room, "When Doctor Mari said she wanted to buy us a new bag."
"I've been imagining tomorrow wearing a new bag to school."
"But this is all because," Teo and Tom kept their lines together and looked at Felix hatefully.
Even so the five of them slept together in Felix and Cain's room that night. The rain did not want to also subside until midnight making Doctor Mari and Daisy also have to stay at the orphanage but thanks to that they can be escorted to school using Doctor Mari's car.
When everyone but Felix gets out of the car, "Thank you."
Doctor Mari was shocked to hear the word just come out of Felix's mouth.
"What's? Teri what? anchovies?" Doctor Mari started joking.
Felix closed the car door without answering. If I'm honest Felix must have felt very tired because of the commute back and forth to school. Maybe that was Felix's first sincere thank you.
***
There was no day for Felix without waiting to be bullied by the Pink Ghost. He still hasn't gotten a clue at all.
Even for him to force to go home alone but there is no interference at all, "For long your first love the Pink Ghost," Cain mocked.
"I wouldn't be like this if you told me back then..." Cain stops Felix talking hinting at the bus already coming.
"I told you I was going home alone!"
"You think the Pink Ghost doesn't bother you because it's ashamed of us?"
Felix looked at Cain sharply. Cain immediately pretended to be asleep to avoid the question.
When she got to the bus stop, Daisy was waiting with her car flashing, "So the mother from the parlor but Tan said you were still on your way home."
Instead of being happy, Felix was even annoyed at being picked up by Miss Daisy.
"So morning I was watching the news, mom was so cool, '" said Cain.
"According to mother, does the ghost really exist?" add Cain after the pleasantries.
"Because of the Pink Ghost?"
"Mom know?"
"Mother is a journalist, small to big news should be the basis of knowledge."
"Do you want a lie or a fact?" Felix finally made a sound.
"Haha, journalists are the king of all news and rumors."
"So according to the Pink Ghost's mother?"
"That mother knows is just a rumor. Rumor is quite wrong ears because of hearing, the task of the mouth must now be silent, right Felix?"
"Hmmm... Mom and Felix are both shitty."
Just as Felix was about to say something, Cain immediately shut his mouth, "Yes...Tom is a cat and Jerry is a rat," Cain is lazy to hear Felix's explanation and as soon as they get to Cain straight down from the car.
Felix who was silenced his mouth earlier finally took revenge when Cain was going to sleep by reading a book using a loud voice.
Cain who was upset finally spoke,
"Tom and Jerry are natural enemies but without them knowing they love each other, so..."
"Emmm...so?"
"So I'm sorry..."
"...," Felix went back to reading the book aloud and Cain relented by covering his ears with cotton and finally he was able to sleep.
Hearing Cain snoring in the top bed, Felix picked up the pink paper again. Long Felix looked at him until he fell asleep.
