Chapter 20 Tragic death
“He’s much better than Matteo,” Zayn muttered.
“Of course, much better.” Selgie said with a face that tried to reassure Zayn.
“Can I see his face more clearly. It looks like a model’s photo and only shows her style. I can’t see her face clearly, in case I know her.” Zayn said asking for a clearer picture, so that the face of the man on Selgie’s cell phone could be fully seen.
Diana and Melissa chuckled at Zayn’s words.
“I don’t have a clearer picture, maybe I’ll ask for a clearer picture later.” Selgie’s lie, she didn’t even know who the person in the photo was. She just took a picture of that person randomly.
“Ah well, if there are no more, no problem. It looks like I have to go now, if you guys don’t want to hear those rumors I’d better go.” Zayn said then quickly left the presence of Selgie and her two friends.
After Zayn left, Diana tried to ask Selgie about the photo.
“Selgie, is that guy a model? Why does he look so handsome. Where did you get that photo?” Asked Diana who was also curious about the photo Selgie showed Zayn.
“Oh! That guy’s photo, I don’t know. I took it secretly this morning.”
“Huh! What?” Diana and Melissa were surprised by Selgie’s words.
They did not understand how Selgie could secretly take pictures of other people.
Their words were so loud that the people around the cafeteria stared at the three of them.
“Suutt… you guys are so noisy! I accidentally photographed a handsome man when I was about to take a picture of the scenery and it was this man that I accidentally photographed, because I was fascinated by his good looks, but unfortunately after I looked at my phone to see the results of my photo, the man disappeared and I haven’t had a chance to get acquainted with him. He didn’t even see me, I don’t know what he was looking for in the bushes.”
Selgie tried to tell her friends how she got the photo of the handsome man on her phone.
Selgie didn’t expect that on a sunny morning, she would have to look at a handsome man, making her heartbeat seem to malfunction at that moment.
So, she took a picture of the handsome man instead of taking a picture of the morning scenery. She was even more attracted to the man she didn’t know at all.
“Maybe he’s looking for his pet.” Melissa tried to guess the handsome man Selgie was talking about.
“I don’t know, but unfortunately I didn’t get to say hello to him.” Selgie muttered
“So, what if Zayn asks who your boyfriend is?” Diana asked.
“Maybe I’ll make it up, to give him a name.” Selgie said and then fell silent as her mind went back to the man she saw this morning.
The school dismissal bell rang as Selgie headed home to the school gate, followed by her five friends.
Suddenly a woman hugged Diana’s body with a cry that was so broken in Diana’s arms that she now frowned in surprise to see her mother suddenly hugging her just like that.
“Mom, what’s wrong with you?” Diana asked anxiously when she saw her mother crying.
Curiosity began to envelop the people who were there, including Selgie who was beside Diana.
“Your grandmother disappeared and is now found dead in the forest near the lake. ”
Diana was shocked when she heard her mother’s words.
Her grandmother had been missing for a long time, the last time she saw her grandmother was with Selgie and Melissa.
Instantly the three girls’ memories returned as they were chased by wolves.
Selgie and Melissa looked at each other and then looked at Diana who was now silent.Copyright Nôv/el/Dra/ma.Org.
Her mind already thought that her grandmother had been eaten by the beast, especially when she tried to ask for a drink, her grandmother was not at home.
“Mom, was grandma found with her body still complete? Or was it just-” Diana didn’t continue when she saw her mother shaking her head in tears.
Diana cried as she hugged her mother.
Now what was in the minds of the three girls came true, if the old woman had been eaten by a wolf.
Selgie also felt sad to see Diana crying over her dead grandmother.
Now Selgie and her other friends follow Diana to her grandmother’s house.
Selgie chose to stay outside when she arrived at the house she had visited earlier.
Many people looked on with sadness.
There were faint sounds of people talking about the old woman.
“When I was looking for firewood in the forest, I saw bones with flesh that had been torn apart, even rotting.”
Selgie swallowed, her body trembling at the story she had just heard, so horrifying.
She had even been bitten by a wolf, but strangely the bite was not there.
Selgie was lucky enough not to be eaten by a wolf when she got lost in the forest near the lake by herself.
Selgie really felt strange about herself at that time.
What exactly happened to her, apart from the wolf bite that suddenly disappeared, she could also be at home suddenly and not in the middle of the forest anymore. she thought that it was a dream, but it turned out that it was not a dream.
Diana has been absent from school for days, perhaps the girl is still mourning the loss of her grandmother.
Many people are now on alert because the death of an old woman who died from a wolf bite has made everyone fearful and on guard.
Everyone suspects that the death was the work of a wolf, although that is also not certain as only Diana told her family that she almost got lost and saw a wolf.
Many people didn’t believe the rumors, but they remained vigilant, even though they had never seen a wolf while entering the forest.
Selgie walked to the cafeteria with her three friends, without Diana, only Melissa, Bella and Indriani. There was no Janeeta anymore, the girl was like swallowed by the earth, lately the girl had never gathered again with the Quenby gang.
