"Aidan, wake up. We've arrived at your school." Dad's voice ringing in my ears. I'm blinking my eyes and seeing we've already right infront of the gate. I greets them goodbyes before I get out of the car. I am surprise when I get out of the car and see all the eyes at the school looking at me with amazed faces. "Wow, that car is beautiful." "It must be expensive. Just look at him." "I wish my dad have that car too. It's really cool." I have to ignore them. I quickly walk into the school grounds and suddenly.. "Hi, Aidan." I, who is still in a state of exhaustion, finds where the greeting came from. I am surprise when Mr. Razak standing beside me while smiling. "Errr.. Hi, Sir." "Why you look so tired, Aidan? Are you okay? Don't you have enough sleep?" Ask Mr. Razak who see my swolen eyes. I rubbing my eyes and widened it. "There is nothing, sir. I'm fine." I try to smile. He smiled. A smile full of meaning. "If you have any problems, you can tell me, Aidan. I am ready to listen." I standing stiffly there. He just smiled and walked away. But Cikgu Razak suddenly he stops and return back at me. "Your Dad's car is beautiful, Aidan." I feel uncomfortable when heard those words from him. I am sure that Mr. Razak must have knows that this is all actions. "Your house is beautiful too, Aidan." I couldn't hold it in anymore. My eyes are starting watery. "Aidan? Are you okay?” I remain silent while looking at Mr. Razak. He holding my shoulder while trying to calm me down. "Let's go to my room, Aidan." I follow Mr. Razak all the way to the teacher's room. He is special because he has a special room because he is also a guidance teacher. So they has provided a special room to him. Mr. Razak ask me to sit in the chair provided. "What's wrong, Aidan? I've noticed you seems to have a problem lately." I still petrified. My eyes getting more swolen than before. I can feel my body is shaking hard. “It's okay Aidan. You can tell the me. I wants to help you." This time my tears have started to fall from my eyelids. Mr. Razak immediately got up from his chair and sat next to me while hugging my shoulder. He wiped the tears that fell from my eyes with his hands. "Aidan, I can't help you if you don't want to tell the me anything." "Aa...Aa..All.. This... ii..it's my fault, sir." My voice choked as I hold back my tears. I'n sobbing and my chest waving. Everything that was hidden in my chest was released today. "Tell me everything, Aidan." His soft voice making me calm down. "Ee...eee..everything is wrong....I...I'm the reason...I..iii..sho..shouldn't...received...yo..your.. brush.." It's hard for me to speaks while crying. Mr. Razak stay silent next to me. He hugs my shoulders tightly. "Aa...all... That..you.. sees ... That is the result of ... My painting." I criew intensified. Mr. Razak still did not let go of his hug. From the age of Mr. Razak, who is in his mid-20s, he looks like an older brother comforting his younger brother. "Aidan, I have said this to you. No matter what you decision is. There will be a consequences. It's either bad or good, you have to accept it. But right now that brush has made your family happy, but it has hurt you, Aidan." Mr. Razak rubbing my shoulder. He then got up and sat in front of me. "But don't forget, greedy people always lose, Aidan." I looked at Mr. Razak who is smiling at me. "What do you mean?" He's still smiling. "Aidan, I've gave you the brush because I believes in you. And I knows you are also a child who obeys your parents and you also a smart student. I knows you deserve the brush. But because of your family's greed, they used you." I wiping my tears. “But you should know, Aidan. There is nothing more powerful than God. Remember He is the Lord of the universe, and nothing can match it. You have to believe that this is your destiny and that He planned all of this. Aidan, there must be wisdom behind this. You can't give up now.” Mr. Razak added. He then took a tissue from his table and wipping the tears from my face. I smiled. And so is he. "You're tired, Aidan. Please lying here. Later, I will tell the teachers who taught your class today that you are not feeling well." I nodding my head then I lay my body on the sofa in the room. Then I fell asleep. _____________________________________
