"What's wrong? Give us your answer!" Said Lily happily. She didn't expect anything. "Can I skip this question?" Asked Nova. She was scare of her own flashbacks.

"Sure but you need to give a reason." Replied Lily. She truly didn't expect anything. Hina just shut in silent since she already fell something wrong.

"Please respect my decision." Replied Nova and they could see that she was serious. "Okay!" Replied Lily and Nova was truly thankful that she understands it.

"Let's move to another activity for today!" Shouted Hina happily. She didn't want anyone to be say. Nova and Lily agreed. Next activity didn't really interesting.

They were going to cook and eat together. Nova never cooked anything in her whole life. So they were going to cook some pancakes and healthy smoothly. They were preparing all the ingredients. Then, they cooked.

--

They prepared the pancakes and smoothy on the dining table. Then, they took their seats. "Let's dig in!" Shouted Lily happily and they started eating.

"I truly love pancakes!" Said Hina happily. "Me too!" Replied Lily as she like it too. Nova just enjoyed it. "What we will do next?" Asked Lily. They were still enjoying their pancakes and smoothly.

"I'm okay with everything." Replied Nova and drank her smoothly. She was going to like it. "What about going out around here?" Suggested Lily and said the details.

So they were going to go for a walk around there. After they done eating, they cleaned up everything and directly went out.

"So we gonna take a walk around here! Since Nova is still new here, let's show her around!" Said Hina happily while they were just walking out from Lily's house. Lily said that there would be a playground around there.

"Now turn left and we will see the playground!" Said Lily once they were going left. "Nova, if you don't mind, can us ask you some questions?" Asked Hina for permission first. Nova was truly mysterious. There must be a lot of questions to be asked.

"Sure, but... If I don't wanna answer, please don't force me." Replied Nova and she was worried if they asked something she really didn't wanna answer.

"Sure we won't! We promised." Replied Hina. Maybe it could make Nova wasn't really mysterious to them. They were willing to be Nova's happiness and bring the real Nova. They knew, Nova before wasn't like that. There must be something happened in her life.

"Straight to the questions then. I'm pretty exciting too." Replied Nova and she was different. She was going to have fun. All thanked to Lily and Hina! Nova was feeling better.

Both of Lily and Hina looked at each other with a very precious smile. They were ready with their questions. "Umm... what's your dad's occupation?" Asked Lily for her first question.

"He works at his own industry as the owner for sure." Replied Nova. Just the simple answer but it truly made Lily and Hina were happy.

"Umm what kind of industry is it?" Asked Hina even she was a bit hard to open her mouth. It may be sensitive, just this in Hina's mind.

"I'm seriously don't know. I never care about that." Replied Nova and that seriously made Lily and Hina shocked. How can a daughter didn't know her dad's occupation ? That was super weird.

"What! How can you don't know?" Asked Hina as she was super curious at all. "Actually, I hate my dad." Replied Nova easily. So easily!

Both of Lily and Hina looked at each other. 'What the heck!' Just this sentence on their mind. They truly didn't know Nova well and she was super mysterious.

"Why? What actually happened to you and your family?" Asked Hina. She wasn't want but she just thought that she wanna help her. They were friends!

"I'm sorry, I can't tell you guys about this." Replied Nova. So she didn't wanna tell them. It still a long way to know each other. They only met for a week. Just a week.

"It's okay. We won't force you." Replied Hina with a smile. "Yup we won't! So next question can I?" Replied Lily. She was exciting to ask this question. What kind of question?

"Why you moved here actually? I still unsatisfied on your answer at class before." Asked Lily as her second question.

"It's all because of my dad! Maybe he just wanna separate me from my mom." Replied Nova and she was stress to think about this. 'I will never say that he is my dad!' Thought Nova and both of Lily and Hina saw that she was stressful.

"It's okay. There must be a reason for sure." Replied Lily. She didn't know anything else to reply her. "Yup I agree!" Replied Hina as they tried so hard.

"Next question?" Asked Lily as she still have some questions to ask her. "I didn't ask yet. Can I?" Asked Hina as she also have some questions.

Nova didn't give any answers. "I guess you don't want to answer anymore, right?" Replied Lily. She still had a lot of questions. "Ahh let's go to the shop and buy some drinks." Suggested Hina to cut it off.

"Nice suggestions! Let's go!" Replied Lily and they walked to the nearby shop there. Then, they got in and bought some drinks.

"Huh what a nice day today!" Shouted Lily happily once they got out from the shop with their drinks. "Yup I like our day!" Shouted Hina too.

"Where should we go next? We will have dinner at my house at 7:00 p.m. Is that okay?" Replied Lily. Others just agreed with it while thinking where should they go next.

"Haa there's a wide area with a big shady tree near here." Suggested Hina as she used to pass there. "Great! Let's go!" Replied Lily happily as usual. Then, they walked there.

Once they reached there, there's a group of boys were bullying a girl. They were still kids. "Eyh... What a pity cute girl there." Said Hina as she was startled.

"We can't let this keep going." Replied Lily. She thought that they're just kids so it would be easier. "Kids!" Shouted Nova. Finally she started to talk again after a few questions before.

All the kids there were looking at three of them. "Don't interrupt me!" Shouted a boy there. Maybe he was the leader of this gang.

"Please make it easy, kids." Replied Hina. She truly didn't know what else to do. "Go away!" Shouted the another boy. He looks same as the first one. Maybe, they're twin!

"But... Why?" Asked Hina. She couldn't stand with just looking like that. "Stop it! Why you bullied her?" Asked Lily with a loud voice.

"Let go of the girl before I use my hand." Replied Nova just to scare the kids. "You won't understand!" Replied the boy and suddenly got so deep in Nova's heart.

Hina walked near the two kids, the twin. The others kids were still there. The little girl was crying there. Lily just ignored the other kids and got near the little girl. She gave a head pat.

The others kids ran away except the twin and the little girl who was with Lily. "Now, apologize to the little girl." Said Hina nicely to the twin. The twin bowed to the ground.

"Isaac, let's go." Said the one with the black t-shirt. "Just apologize." Said Lily while she was holding the girl's shoulder. "Don't force us! You don't know us." Said the boy with dark blue t-shirt. He must me Isaac.

"Haih... Little girl, it's okay if they don't apologise to you?" Asked Lily to the little girl. The girl just agreed as she was scare of that boys.

The boys quickly ran away but once they passed beside Nova, they stopped there because of Nova's scary look. "Please apologize." Said Nova and the boys quickly apologize and ran away.

"What you did with the boys?" Asked Hina curiously. "Nothing." Replied Nova and walked to the little girl. "Hey stay away! You may make this little girl scare!" Said Lily once she got near the little girl.

It was because once she got near, the girl hug Lily as she was scare. "Girl, don't worry, we won't hurt you." Said Hina to make a better situation. Then, the girl slowly showed out her face and stopped holding on Lily's hoodie.

"What's your name?" Asked Lily kindly to the little girl. "R..Rose." replied the little girl, Rose! "That's a great name!" Replied Lily. She was truly friendly and easygoing.

"Why are you alone?" Asked Hina curiously. "I...I'm with my big bro but... He got bullied first and asked me to run. I ended up here." Replied Rose telling everything.

"Rose!" Someone shouted from behind them in a trembling voice. They quickly turned back at once. There was a little boy. There were a few scratches on his face, hands and legs.

"Bro!" Shouted Rose and ran to him. "Thanks so much!" Said that boy loudly while bowing. "He is my bro! Thanks!" Said Rose too.

Hina walked near them. "Your scratches... Are you hurt?" Asked Hina kindly. "Let me buy some plaster?" Asked Lily kindly too.

"Sure. Kids, wait with me while Lily buy the plaster." Suggested Hina and brought the kids sit under the big shady tree. "I will go with Lily." Said Nova. She was curious of something.

"Okay sure. Please be hurry." Replied Hina just agreed with it. "Okay. Let's go, Lily." Replied Nova and she immediately walked away. Lily was chasing her since she walked immediately just like that.

--

Once Nova and Lily, they saw the twin walking around there. "Hey that's the twin." Said Lily and pointed on the twin. The twin wasn't notice them.

"Can you go first?" Asked Nova all of sudden. She truly like to do something on her own. "W...why?" Asked Lily curiously. "Just go first!" Replied Nova and Lily just agreed. Lily walked back to Hina and the kids first.

Nova got near the twin from their back. "Kids." Said Nova kindly. "Hmm." Said those two and looked back. They were pretty startle.

"What do you want?" Asked the boy with the dark blue t-shirt. "I wanna ask you something." Replied Nova nicely. She didn't want the twin to be scare.

"What's it about?" Asked the another twin with the black t-shirt. "Let's us have some chat. I'm new here so I don't really know about the places around here." Replied Nova and gave some suggestions.

The twin looked at each other for a while. "Agree?" Asked Nova nicely. They were kids, need to be nice. "Sure." Replied the kid with the dark blue t-shirt.

Then, the twin brought Nova to the nearby beach. Just around 5 minutes from the shop. The beach isn't full of people. They sit on the sand.

"What are we gonna talk about?" Asked the kid with the dark blue t-shirt. "What about we introduce ourselves first?" Suggested Nova and she was truly good at talking with kids.

"Sure. I think you must already know that we're twin. I'm Isaac and this is my younger brother, Ivan." Said the kid with the dark blue t-shirt as introducing of himself and his younger brother.

So they're Isaac and Ivan!

"I'm Nova." Replied Nova as introducing herself too. "Just straight to your point please." Replied Ivan. He truly didn't really interested on this.

"Nice. So why were you bullying that little girl?" Asked Nova directly. She truly wanted to just straight to her point. "I don't know... Just for fun." Replied Ivan while Isaac was just looking on the beach sand.

"Eyh, is that really fun to bully others?" Asked Nova while lifting one of her eyebrows. "Not...not like that!" Replied Ivan. He really didn't like how Nova looked at him.

"Umm can you stop bullying?" Asked Nova directly. Just straight to the points as usual. The twin just shut in silent.

"Umm do you know how the girl was feeling when you were bullying her?" Asked Nova. She was trying so hard. The twin still shut in silent.

"Actually, what do you feel when bullying others?" Asked Nova. She really wanted this twin to open their mouths.

"I hate my life! When bullying others, I feel like really strong and everyone would never dare to to get into any fight with us..." Replied Isaac and finally opened his head to tell Nova about this.

"Umm are you ever been bullied before?" Asked Nova. She was still cool and didn't startle at all. "Nope... it's not like that." Replied Ivan. Both of them were sad at all.

"Eyh so what made both of you hate your life?" Asked Nova curiously. Both of the kids just shut in silent like they still didn't wanna tell the truth.

"Okay then. You must need some times to think about this. Take your time and when we meet again, I wish both of you had changed and stop bullying others." Said Nova as the end of their conversation.

Then, Nova stood up and was going to go away. She glanced back and saw the twin were looking at the beach sand.

'They need some times...' Thought Nova and smiled...a smile that she never gave to anybody.
