2024-11-05 16:14:13his feet treaded across the hallway, several pairs of eyes looked at her with interest and some with wonder. The hustle and bustle turned into a commotion, the people were curious, as was he himself. Her beady eyes wandered in various directions to refract her gaze, before the room with flats 1-7 made her step inside. Again, all pairs of eyes stared at her, as if he was the object of most interest there.
"Why is there no notice that we have a new student?" a student said to his friend.
"Wait, that face looks familiar." said another.
Arkanza walked towards the table that was covered in graffiti, he checked the entire surface of the object including the chair.
"Hm, safe. Still usable." he said calmly.
As if not considering the people present there, he sat her butt on the seat. Taking out a few books from the desk locker, his began to turn over the sheets that were covered in graffiti.
"Doesn't he know that the desk belongs to that person?" whispered the children not far from where he was.
"Too bad, if that guy shows up he's finished." said a friend who was still in the same group.
"You're right, even though his face is quite handsome--"
"Psstt, shut up already!" interrupted his other friend not when several gangs of students arrived, having a striking appearance and those people even made way for him.
"Hey you! Stay away or bad luck will come your way too!" said a young man with many piercings in his ears, a small canine tooth on the right further supporting his hobo face.
Arkanza ignored him, preferring to look back at the books. And the boys also didn't realize who was sitting there.
"Hmm, did you guys do all this?" said Arkanza opening the conversation.
The youth began to boast, "Of course, I'm very talented in improving the appearance of books like that!"
A follower of the punks squinted his eyes, his thick glasses were righted and time and time again his probing gaze tried to detect who the cool guy was who occupied the chair of the person they used to bully.
"I see, what's your name?" asked Arkanza with a sweet smile. The people who saw all that instantly blushed, he supported his chin and looked at the man with a friendly gaze
"My name is Anagata! Everyone calls me Gata or Gaga, I'm so strong and blah blah blah..."
The young man looked so proud explaining his name, what he and his friends used to do.
"Hee~ I see, our future will be more advanced if a Wanara dominates." Arkan sarcastically chuckled.
"What Wanara, I'm Anagata--"
"Wait a minute, you're... Arkanza, huh!?" cut in the young man with glasses.
Instantly the people in the class gasped, they whispered again.
"What the hell are you Aru, how could he be that dork! Hahaha!"Anagata laughed loudly, but this time no one followed. Instantly the class fell silent, Arkanza just smiled and looked at Anagata who was so stupid.
"Bo-bos, he's... he's really Arkanza!!!"
"ARKANZA?!"
his body was stunned not when everyone united their voices and made it sound so big, he stroked his chest softly.
"You guys, can't you just not surprise me for a day?!" Arkanza said a little annoyed, his breathed slowly.
Everyone was silent, "Are you really Arkanza...?" asked a woman who approached him.
he flashed a sweet smile that looked creepy in the eyes of the students, "Yes, does my face look so different? I might have forgotten your names a bit because of that incident,"
Arkanza glanced at the crowd that was now standing still, he was deliberately fishing which he did not know why the body lord had been out of school for a while. Why the servant was so worried about him and he wanted to see the whole truth from these innocent children.
"Arkanza the outcast child? I didn't expect him to change so much in such a short time."
And sure enough, he was met with gossip and ridicule again. Arkanza flashed a smile as thin as tissue divided by 10, in his 30 years of life no one had dared to backbite him yet these boys who were no more than half his real age were so bold towards him.
'Do I have to give a little warning? Why are these kids so adorable, I want to throw them into the crocodile pond.' he thought coldly.
From here he began to weigh up all the information he had gotten that the master of the body of his soul was now the poor child who had taken out his emotions on the servant. His mother was betrayed by his father and now due to the rumors, his father neglected him and refused to even provide for him. He thought he would inherit everything but his life changed in an instant, his mother tried to keep the overseas branch company while the parent company was taken over by his father. Now his father has a family of his own, but because his mother still owns more than half of the shares, his father still wants to maintain a relationship.
"You think changing your appearance like this will make you great, huh?"
"Once an outcast, always an outcast!"
The corners of his lips tugged, he rose from his seat quickly. Arkanza stared fixedly at the swearing perpetrator, with a grin that grew wider and wider making the atmosphere of the class feel so gripping. The other students and female students fell silent instantly, the one who had never fought back was now baring his fangs."Hee~ I see, an outcast huh~" in a swinging tone.
"You think because I've been quiet, you feel great for bullying me all this time? Don't you ever think what if I fight back someday and get back at you for everything you've done to me?" he threatened right in the ear of the young man who was already trembling with fear.
"What if, all this time, I deliberately gave in to you, showing my weak side and catching you off guard. Then one night, your house explodes or catches fire, suddenly consuming you and all your assets and family. Don't you ever think about that?" he continued to intimidate, a terrible smile on his handsome face.
"Ah yes, Bagaskara."
His feet treaded and stopped right in front of the man who was the body lord's main reason for ending his life, a nondescript man who had strangely made his way into the gang.
"Don't think I've forgotten, that 'insult' of yours. That broke everything from me, do I have to hold you accountable now? If you're not--"
"Get away from me!!! You--he threatened to kill me if I still bullied him!!!" Bagaskara said hysterically, the dozens of pairs of eyes that were there made him the center of attention now.
Arkanza looked down, Bagaskara pushed his to the cold tile floor. his head bowed before his body shook with laughter, Bagaskara wanted to play games with him like this? Well he will get the right playmate.

"You have to pull the chair first, you lowly noble." muttered the young man who looked older than Arkanza.Meanwhile, the two women there no longer said.He recognized the man on his right side. Who would have thought that the body he occupied would be that of the son of his nemesis? The son of Adam Smith, the business partner who betrayed him? What kind of coincidence is this? And he could conclude that Arkanza had been thrown into the world with time advancing. 'That means the old woman is Isabella? Wait, but it doesn't look alike. Has it changed? Then Albert, I don't know if the Smith family has a companion, except from his mother? But this woman looks familiar' Arkanza thought as she waited for his food to be prepared by Albert right in front of him.Norman Sukamta for the umpteenth time chuckled at Albert who cared so much for Arkanza, even Albert's suspicious feelings made Norman look at Arkanza even more with hatred."Did the servant even taste the food first?

If it was only sent to a private forum containing the extended family, then the body reaction shown would not be this severe. "Hi guys, it's me again. Can you see what this person is doing? Wait, are you sure it's a living entity?" said Norman in a very cheerful voice. His feet pointed to the young man who was eating his food in silence, in a deep bow. But unfortunately Norman did not stay silent, together with his sister Amber, he continued to disturb Arkanza's peace in enjoying his food. Amber stepped forward and poured a lot of hot sauce into the plate, making Arkanza's food contaminated with the hot sauce. "Come on, eat greedily like livestock, hahaha!" said Amber with her hand pushing Arkanza's head to touch his food with her mouth. Then Norman continued to record the scene, Arkanza was forced to eat his food. The sound of sobs and nausea echoed until the food was gone without a trace. "Good, eat until finished. Don't waste the food that the chef has worked so hard to make, f

"Mom, dad is calling you." A teenage girl looked so careful in calling an older woman. Amber didn't get the answer she wanted, thinking of calling her mother back. "Mom--" "I'll catch up with you later. Is Norman in his room?" Maria rebutted in a low voice. The hand took a small towel that she used to wipe the body of the young man who looked sound asleep, put the object in a small basin filled with water and wrung it out. "He's in the room. Mom, dad--" "Can't you read the situation? Something hurts here." Amber was surprised to hear her mother's words, Maria usually didn't act like this. It felt like Amber was so far away from Maria, and her mother was like another person in a short time. Amber kept thinking, the last time she was scolded because her actions had gone too far in teasing Arkanza that he was punished. So did her younger sibling, not to mention her actions that made the whole school treat Arkanza badly. All of that was done by Amber and Norman, inciting, and so o

"Is this the work of that damn brat again?" asked a young man wearing the same uniform as Norman. "Shut up idiot, I don't want to talk about it!" Norman replied curtly. Norman was indeed known to have a bad temper, his friend was seen looking into the car. "You two didn't go together this time?" asked his friend again. "We left him, we haven't even put on the uniform yet." said Amber who was disciplined about time. It was also because today's duty schedule made Amber and Norman rush too lazy to cause trouble, the Killer teacher named Isla was too strong to be defeated.

"What's going on!? Who are you!? And you--Mr. Bodgan, why are you wearing casual clothes to class?! Don't you want to go to school here anymore!?" Hearing the interruption of a more mature voice, made Milan release his grip. "Forgive me Sir, I'm the one who caused the commotion. I'm only here to deliver my master's uniform, I apologize profusely for this commotion. But allow me to help Mr. Arkanza change into his uniform." Milan bowed his body respectfully, hearing Milan's explanation made one of the educators straighten his gaze towards Arkanza. "You brought him here, Mr. Bodgan? He hasn't been to school for a long time and then he comes in and acts up? How dare you are, Mr. Bodgan." continued the teacher. With a receding forehead and a bit of hair, the man glared at Arkanza in annoyance, he also helped Anagata who had mocked Arkanza earlier. "Maybe Sir has misunderstood, I say it again--" "I don't care about what a subordinate like you says, I only believe in what I see. You can
HighSchool of Billionere A Small Flame in a Big House
The evening sky glowed golden-orange as Amber forcefully pushed open the large gate of their family home. Her long hair, usually sleek and regal, was disheveled, mirroring the fury etched across her face. Her loafers clicked sharply against the marble floor as she stormed into the house. “Mom!” she shouted, throwing her school bag onto the sofa in the living room. Maria, who was enjoying a cup of warm tea, looked up calmly, though a knot of worry began to form in her chest. “What’s wrong, Amber? Why are you stomping in like that?” Maria asked gently. Amber stood with her arms crossed over her chest. “It’s Arkanza! He made me so mad at school today!” Maria set her teacup down slowly, forcing herself to remain composed. “What did he do this time?” Amber took a deep breath, her frustration bubbling just beneath the surface. “He embarrassed me in front of my friends! I was talking to them in the cafeteria, and he walked by and *spilled his drink* all over my table. I know he did

The hospital room was filled with tension. Milan, Albert, and Barak stood near Arkanza’s bed, watching over his unconscious figure. Meanwhile, Vikram leaned against the wall, arms crossed over his chest, his sharp gaze moving from one person to another."We can't keep arguing about this," Vikram said firmly. "What matters now is finding a reason we can give to Mr. Adam and Mrs. Maria. If they find out that Arkanza is in the hospital, things will become even more complicated."Milan clenched his fists and lowered his head in silence. He knew exactly what Vikram meant. Adam Smith, Arkanza’s father, wasn’t the type to accept flimsy excuses. If he found out his son had suffered an allergic reaction outside his supervision, the consequences could be severe. Especially since, from the beginning, Adam had never truly considered Arkanza part of the family."Can we really keep this a secret from them?" Albert asked, tension still evident on his face."We have to," Vikram answered decisively. "

"I just wanted to make sure he ate something," Milan replied in a low voice. "I was the one who brought his food, but I didn’t know he was allergic to peanuts." Albert narrowed his eyes. "Weren’t you the one who insisted on delivering the food yourself? How could you not check what was in it?" Milan fell silent. Albert’s words felt like a whip, forcing him to confront his negligence. He wanted to deny it, to say he never intended to harm Arkanza, but the truth was, he had delivered the food without thinking it through. Feeling cornered, Milan suddenly shifted the blame to Barak. "But when I got there, Arkanza was already with Barak! You should be asking him too, not just me!" Albert turned his gaze to Barak, who was still standing by the window. Barak let out a small sigh before finally turning to face them. "I was looking for Arkanza too," Barak answered calmly. "He went to the cafeteria first, so I greeted him after I ordered my food." Albert crossed his arms. "And what
An Unexpecred Mistake
The hospital room was still filled with an unbearable silence. Milan sat in the waiting chair, his head bowed, fingers intertwined, while Barak stood near the window, staring outside with a vacant expression. They were waiting for news from the doctor about Arkanza’s condition after suffering an allergic reaction that had nearly cost him his life.Footsteps approached. Milan lifted his head and saw Albert arriving with a serious expression.“What exactly happened?” Albert asked bluntly, his sharp eyes locking onto Milan with an intense gaze. “I heard you were the one who gave Arkanza the food?”Milan tensed immediately. He knew that sooner or later, someone would question this, but he wasn’t ready to face the reality that he might have made a fatal mistake.He felt something lodged in his throat. His chest ached, and his head started spinning. Instinctively, his hand clutched his chest, his body leaning slightly forward. He tried to swallow, but it became increasingly difficult. He le
pointless quarrel
The sun was beginning to set as Arkanza stepped out of his last class of the day. He let out a slow breath, feeling a slight relief after spending hours sitting and listening to lectures. The campus was bustling with students moving in all directions—some hurrying home, others still lingering with friends. Arkanza chose to head to the cafeteria. His stomach felt empty, and he needed something to refuel before continuing his activities. He walked at a relaxed pace, hands tucked into his pockets, enjoying the gentle evening breeze. Upon reaching the cafeteria, he went straight to the queue and scanned the menu. It didn’t take him long to decide—he ordered a pastry and a cold drink. But when his tray was placed in front of him, he froze. The drink he had ordered contained an ingredient that could trigger Isabella's allergy. His hand stopped midair. ‘Idiot. Why am I hesitating over something like this?’ Arkanza took a deep breath, trying to push the thought away. He had alre

Arkanza walked up to the mirror, staring at his own reflection.The room felt silent, empty, as if the whole world had shrunk, leaving only him and the reflection gazing back at him with an unreadable expression."So," his voice was quiet, almost a whisper. "What should I do now?"The reflection stared back.No answer.Arkanza let out a deep sigh, pressing both hands against the surface of the table in front of the mirror. His eyes remained fixed on his reflection—a man who looked more exhausted than he should. His hair was slightly messy, faint dark circles visible under his eyes, and his expression... somehow, it felt foreign even to himself."Answer me," he urged again, though he knew well that no voice would answer except his own. "I'm tired. I've come this far, yet why does it feel like I'm still lost?"The reflection remained silent, but it felt as though it was speaking in the quiet.Arkanza straightened his posture, staring intently at his own image. "I used to think I knew ev
Moments After Arkanza Arrived at His Residence
RoomOn the table, there was a piece of paper filled with scribbles. It was a list of the foods he had consumed earlier with Valerie. He stared at the list with deep concentration, then picked up a pen and crossed out a few items.Steak.The first thing he crossed out was steak. After dinner earlier, there had been no unusual reaction from his body. Red meat wasn’t a problem for him. Then, he crossed out several ingredients used in sauces and basic seasonings.Butter, black pepper, rosemary, mustard.He had consumed all these ingredients many times before, and no allergic reactions had ever occurred. No symptoms of breathlessness, itching, or nausea. That meant all of these ingredients were safe for him.Arkanza set the pen down and leaned back in his chair. He stared blankly at the ceiling, his mind slowly drifting into the past—to an incident that had almost taken his life.He still remembered vividly how his body had reacted violently after just one bite. His throat had swelled, ai

The waiter arrived, bringing the menu book. Valerie opened it briefly before glancing at Arkanza. “So, why?” she asked suddenly.Arkanza gave a faint smile, as if he had expected the question. “Why what?”Valerie closed the menu and leaned back in her chair. “You invited me to dinner—so suddenly. I’m curious, what’s the real reason behind this?”The man didn’t answer immediately. Instead, he opened his phone, reading something on it with a serious expression. Valerie watched him, feeling a bit odd about his behavior.“What are you looking at?” she asked.Arkanza closed his phone and placed it on the table. “A list of possible allergies you might have.”Valerie raised an eyebrow. “Allergies?”Arkanza nodded slowly. “I just want to make sure that whatever we order won’t make you sick.”Valerie smiled slightly, finding Arkanza’s answer a bit excessive. “So, is this the real reason you invited me to dinner?”Arkanza looked at her for a moment, then let out a short sigh. “Not really.

Albert carried a tray of tea to Arkanza’s room, his steps as steady as ever. He knocked on the door before entering and placed the porcelain cup on the table, but his eyes immediately caught something unusual.Arkanza, who usually wore casual clothes at home, now looked impeccably dressed. His white shirt was perfectly ironed, a sleek black suit framed his figure, and his normally messy hair was neatLy styled. There was even a faint trace of cologne lingering in the air.Albert frowned. “Saturday night, and you're dressed this neatly?” he asked, suspicious. “Where are you going, Young Master?”Arkanza, adjusting his tie in front of the mirror, simply chuckled. He turned to Albert and winked. “I have a date,” he said casually.That word made Albert’s eyebrows furrow even more. He had worked for the Arkanza family for years and knew very well that his young master rarely showed interest in anyone.“With whom?” Albert asked, this time more seriously.Arkanza let out a small laugh as he p
flashback to the past
Maria was still wearing her work attire when the clock on the wall struck nine in the evening. The office was quiet, with only the soft hum of the air conditioner filling the silence. She took a deep breath, her eyes fixed on the unfinished documents on her desk.The day had felt unbearably long.Adam Smith, the man who had been her boss for over five years, had just returned from the funeral of their great boss—Mr. Mahogra. Maria could see the exhaustion on his face, but it wasn’t just that. There was something else. Something deeper than mere physical fatigue.She observed Adam sitting in his executive chair, his face looking older than before. He hadn’t said a word since returning from the funeral. Maria knew that Mr. Mahogra’s death was a massive blow to Adam.But it wasn’t just about losing a mentor. There was something more.Maria glanced toward the office door. Out there, sitting on the small living room sofa in Adam’s office, was a young girl in a simple black dress. Isabella
