He's my son, not my brother
Meeting for the umpteenth time
"Hey... Why are you quiet?" Asked the woman again while stroking Zeline's head.
"What is Aunt?" Zeline asked still putting on a scared face.
"Why should I be angry?" The woman then smiled.
"Because Zel's got Aunt's shirt on." Zeline's eyes started to turn red. Fearful of the thick-bodied woman in front of him. What's more, now people look at him.
The woman laughed a little. "Auntie is not angry. Anyway you can hold all the clothes here if you want." The reply calmed Zeline down.
Zeline was still putting on a scared face with pursed lips.
"Why are you silent? Don't you like the shirt?" Ask again.
"Did Auntie not tell me?" Zeline asked while holding back her cries. His eyes were still staring fearfully at the shop owner's woman.
"Auntie is not angry with you." The woman also put on a guilty face because it made the little girl in front of her afraid. "Auntie just feels good when you see your face. You're so pretty and adorable." The compliment.
Zeline's frightened face turned happy when she heard the woman in front of her mumuji. "Zel is pretty." His words began to be timid.
The woman folded her lips. It was so easy to make the little girl in front of him smile again. "So do you want the clothes that are here?" Ask again.
Zeline nodded her head. "Tantik all. Zel likes it." Reply honestly.
"But where are your parents? Why are you alone?" The woman looked around looking for the whereabouts of the little girl's parents in front.
"Mother exists. Go ahead and choose clothes for Kak Mala." Zeline's tiny hand pointed at the clothes shop in front of her.
"Then why did you come here yourself? What if your mother's looking for you?"
"Emh. The old mother picked a shirt." Answer Zeline. Zeline turned her gaze toward the clothing store where her mother and sister were. "Auntie... Zel purgi. Cali's mom's gonna." Pamit Zeline then immediately ran out of the store.
"Oh my goodness, I haven't even asked her name yet." The woman muttered looking at Zeline's body that had already moved away from her.

Without a second thought, Zeline's tiny legs immediately ran towards the familiar figure. "No Niel.." call Zeline when she's behind the figure she's after.
Daniel, who was walking with his mother, stopped his steps when he heard a small voice calling his name.
Daniel turned his body. "Zeline.." said Daniel so surprised to see the figure of his little angel is now in front of his eyes.
Zeline nodded. "No Niel.." out of nowhere, Zeline suddenly hugged Daniel's leg which made Daniel again surprised. "No Niel... Zel misses you so much" he said, hugging Daniel's leg.
Daniel's body stiffened. Hearing the longing words of his daughter somehow made his chest tight. Daniel raised Zeline's body and held her.
"You miss me?" Daniel asked to reassure Zeline.
Chief Zeline nodded. "Linduism. Long time ago you met." Reply to Zeline shyly.
"Daniel... Whose child is this?" Mama Hasna who had been watching Daniel and the girl in front of him spoke up.
