Mr. Evil vs Cockroach

By: Janti Fitri

Jack and Jennie never be a good friend. They were both like enemies. Both of them live in the same neighborhood and also schooling in the same university. Jack is a boy who likes to fight. Well, he almost fight everyday. He has a bad temper and easily to get mad. He has a big and tall body. He can do Kung fu, Tae Kwon Do and Karate. Every body afraid to him. So, that's why Jennie doesn't like him so much.


                      *******************************************************
But things were changes since the bad rivalry lies between two of them! Jack was starting the rivalry to Jennie, as Jennie is his junior in the university, but the teacher always talk about her in every subject she chooses. Well, Jennie is a very clever girl. So, no wonder that the lectures talk about her as she also won many prizes in many competitions that held by the universities. Meanwhile, Jack he nearly got the final DO as he is not often join the class and with the bad record on his attitude. Jack hates Jennie so much for this.

                                 **********************************************

Well, actually nothing is really bad from Jennie, she is just nice and cute and clever and kind heart girl. And jack, is just a brutal and lazy and stubborn and selfish and a bad boy. Jack started the rivalry by showing the public that Jennie is not a perfect person. She also has a bad side. Jack captured Jennie's video when she angry to his father. He sabotaged her in annual performance when all the people were there to show their talents to the public. Obviously, Jennie was so shy and angry to Jack. It was showing that Jennie was very childish and stubborn to her father.

But that sabotage didn't make the people hate Jennie. Otherwise, they love Jennie more and more. In result, Jack is getting more angry to Jennie (Hihihihihiihi). Jack tried to find how to fight against this cry baby. He must won, but may not hurt her, because she is only a girl, but he must makes her lost.

                                                    ******************************
Since the sabotage, both of them look for the ways to attack back. Yeah...both of them success to hurt one another and this rivalry known by all the people in the campus. Until one day, when Jennie walked near Jack house. Jennie saw Jack was running outside from his house. He screamed like a girl, meanwhile, his mother also run outside the door while holding the broom. Jennie felt pity to Jack. She thought that Jack was bitten by his mother. So, no wonder that Jack really hates her. So, Jennie decided to hide behind the bush and waited until they were gone.

Jennie heard Jack voice, "Mooommm....nooo...!!!"
"Come here, Jack! Come back here!"
"Mom...no...stop it!!!"
BOOM!! BOOM!!! Jennie closed her eyes as she heard the sound of the broom beat something. She almost cry to see this.
But suddenly, Jennie heard a low voice from Jack, "Is it die, Mom?"
"It is" said his Mom in some soft voice.

Jennie curious to this and she peeked what really going on is. She opened her eyes and found that Jack's mom held cockroach. ?????????????????? Jennie couldn't hold her laugh. She ran back to where she was from until she found an empty street. After that she laugh a loud. She couldn't understand why the strong man like Jack afraid to this little creature? Finally, her nosy mind twirl. She got a crazy idea for Jack.
