CHAPTER 326: PLANETARIUM?!

"... And here, we have the C-11 telescope. It is not the best that we have, but this bad boy is the only one available for the public, as the others are too important for the research team to be allowed to go outside like this. Unfortunately, today is pretty cloudy, so we cannot try it outside."

Sheva nodded repeatedly as if he understood what the guide said on the front. Then, he glanced behind before letting out an amused snort at the sight of both Claudia and Laysa sulking on the back. It was clear that they were unwilling to go there, yet those two girls didn’t have a choice.

’Well, whose fault is it to anger Sister Medina like this?’ He chuckled inwardly. ’They need to learn how to calm down a little bit, or Sister Medina will haunt them forever. Well, that is not a bad scenario... I will pay to see that happen... Hehehe...’ The crooked smile on his face was enough to scare the shit out of all the people who saw it, and even Anna, who stood next to him, also stepped aside, not wanting to be associated with the boy.

Yeah, the one who got smacked by the wild pillow yesterday was Medina. The girls were so unlucky that the one who walked into the room in such a chaotic moment was the worst person possible.

Oh, contrary to what everyone believed, Medina didn’t lash out at them. She probably knew that this kind of pillow war was bound to happen, especially since no adult supervised a bunch of teenagers alone in a hotel room. It was quite lucky that they didn’t do any indecent things, so Medina didn’t really blame them for having fun like this.

That didn’t mean she liked getting smacked on her face, though. So, as a consequence, the woman decided to snatch away the right to determine the destination of their one-day vacation, using it straight to force everyone else to go to the planetarium not far from the hotel.

Oh, it wasn’t a bad place to spend a whole day with the group. Sheva clearly enjoyed the experience, from the several high-tech simulations that he experienced to seeing all the nerdy astronomy equipment tools, like a telescope or something similar. The fact that he could be with Anna as well made the whole thing better.

However, it was clear that Claudia and Laysa didn’t enjoy the day at all.

They initially wanted to go somewhere cold, like the famous Snow Kingdom or the aquarium nearby, trying to cool down their heads after spending a full week in a tense tournament. But going to a planetarium? Getting forced to hear so many science explanations that were enough to give them a headache for a full night? And to top that, in such a hot temperature and with the place full of students doing their summer homework?

This was the complete opposite of what they were hoping for!

"Big Sis, I blame you for this..." Claudia muttered, glancing at Anna with eyes full of resentment. The older girl could only scratch the back of her head awkwardly, knowing full well that she was at fault here. "How could you throw so perfectly into her head like that? Now, she would hold a grudge against us forever, you know?"

"It is not that bad, right?" Anna asked. "I mean, it is a nice place, and I am sure that we have never visited the planetarium in Jakarta, so just treat it as a new experience, okay?"

Claudia and Laysa stared at each other for a moment before grunting silently, knowing that complaining would not change anything, only making them feel more drained than usual. What made them frustrated more, though, was the fact that the adults didn’t even want to go with them, opting to stay at the hotel and have a nice and quiet day without the teenagers bothering them around.

"We are too old to play around on a rare day off like this. We old men will just hurt our backs by night and won’t be able to play tomorrow. So, yeah, just go out and play, we will wait for you while also having a little bit of rest here."

That was the excuse that Master Susanto said, and although it was a little bit far-fetched, the others accepted it so quickly, not wanting to get bothered by adults supervising them. As for the whereabouts of the others, like Taher and Arfan... Well, they wanted to play an online game together, so everyone just left them alone, not having an interest in getting to know what those two were doing.

They hung out around the planetarium for a while, and although they had to jostle through the crowd and sweat a lot, fortunately, the four of them managed to get out of the place. It was quite a nice trip, but definitely not the one that they all enjoyed thoroughly.

"Heaven above... What an insane place..." Sheva let out a deep sigh as he threw his body against the chair, waving his hand at himself rapidly as if it were a fan. "I feel like I was about to get boiled there... How could a place be that hot? Well, how could we have such a hot temperature while it looks like it will rain as well?"

"I don’t know... Maybe, this is the Indian’s thing?" Laysa replied, doing exactly the same as Sheva.

Right now, they were all at the restaurant near the hotel, having already been back after a trip to the planetarium. It might not look that long, but they had been out for more than five hours, and right now, all four teenagers were back straight at noon, where the sun was straight above them. Even though it was covered by clouds, the effect was still there, and with the addition of how crowded the city was, the trip was definitely not a pleasant one.

"Anyway, anyone want to order something?" Anna, probably the most responsible one here, asked.

"Get me something cold, please," Sheva answered quickly.

"Me too! And something crispy for a snack!" Laysa added.

"I will join you, Big Sis!" Claudia rose from her chair, trailing her sister from behind.

Soon, those two walked away, leaving both Sheva and Laysa alone on the table. They stared at each other awkwardly before the girl broke the silence with a question. "Now... What?"
