Today Kimmy decided to go to the place where her aunt was. With a sizable bag in his hand, he boarded the online motorcycle he had previously ordered. The journey is quite far, it takes approximately 3 hours to arrive at the destination.
"This, sir. Thank you," said Kimmy gave the fare and handed the helmet to the Driver when he arrived at the location.
The driver left too. While Kimmy was still sculpting there, letting the sunlight fall onto his body. He spread his gaze around the place where there are so many rundown houses with walls that use used cardboard.
"Aunt Kimmy..."
Kimmy's daydream instantly collapsed, upon hearing the cry of the little boy who ran towards him.
"Ziel!" kimmy then hugged the body of a 4-year-old boy.
"Aunt Kimmy, where have you been? Why haven't you been home with us for so long?"
The adorable-sounding question from the boy's mouth made Kimmy feel a little guilty, but she was a good girl to change her expression.
"Auntie's not going anywhere, baby. It's just, aunt can't stay with you anymore."
The boy named Ziel lowered his head.
"Is it because our house is ugly, isn't it?"
Kimmy shook his head quickly. "No, El. It's not like that."
"Then what?"
Kimmy was confused to give an excuse to the 4-year-old boy. Until finally a woman in her 38s came with her second daughter. Her first daughter is dead, and she is 4 years younger than Kimmy.
"Aunt Kimmy's home yet?" ask the little girl who came with the middle-aged woman.
"Lexal.. Aunty.."
Kimmy shook the hand of the middle-aged woman who was his aunt. He hugged a boy named Lexa who was 3 years older than Ziel.
"How are you, Kimmy?" ask Azuma, her aunt.
"good. What about auntie?" Kimmy asked back.
"As you can see, aunt is fine" Azuma replied.
Although the woman said she was fine, Kimmy knew very well that her aunt was far from saying so. After that Azuma immediately invited Kimmy into his house.
"How is your life now, is it better?" asked Azuma in the middle room which only has a size of 2x2 meters.
"Whatever my life is, I can't relax if I see my aunts and nieces living here" the girl replied.
Azuma let out a long sigh, staring fixedly at the girl he had been taking care of since the age of 1 year.
"Don't think of us, Kimmy. Just think about your happiness!" azuma said while patting Kimmy's left shoulder gently.
"I'm willing to change my happiness for your happiness, aunt. Because you're the one who's been babysitting me since I was little."
Both of Azuma's eyes began to cultivate a clear liquid, he began to glaze over.
"What's this?"
"Give it to the loan shark tomorrow, aunt. Before the man multiplies his debt."
Azuma was very surprised to see a lot of money in the bag. He looked at Kimmy's face.
"Where did you get the money, Kimmy? Don't tell me this is what you call exchanging happiness?"
"Not to worry, aunt. Just wear it, it's 1 billion."
Azuma shook his head quickly and kept the bag away from his lap.
"No, Kimmy. Your happiness is much more important!" reject the woman.
"I'm happy to see my aunt happy. Then if aunt wants me to be happy, put this money on. Redeem whatever has been taken loan sharks. Please!"
Kimmy clasped Azuma's hands tightly, the woman began to tear. So great was Kimmy's sacrifice and he had never expected it before.
"Lexa, Ziel, aunt Kimmy said go first, yeah. Kimmy's aunt will definitely see you again" she said after discussing money matters with Azuma.
The two little boys pursed their lips, unwilling that his aunt should leave him again. They still miss him so much.
Then Kimmy carried Ziel whose body was already heavier than before.
"Ziel, honey. I want lots of toys, don't I?" the boy nodded, but still with the same expression.
"If El wants a lot of toys, let aunt Kimmy go. Aunty will be back with the toy, promise." Kimmy showed his little finger in front of Ziel's face, the boy was instantly overjoyed.
"really? Didn't aunt lie?"
"Aunty ever lied to El?"
Ziel shook his head, then hooked his little finger on Kimmy's pinky.
"I'm waiting, yeah. Aunt Kimmy don't be long!" doors later.
"Yes.."
Kimmy dropped Ziel from his lap, then changed his farewell to Azuma.
"Auntie, I'm leaving, yes," she said, kissing the back of a woman's hand that she already looked like her mother.
"Yes, careful. Take good care of yourself!" order Azuma before Kimmy leaves.
"Yes, auntie too."
Azuma stared at Kimmy's back, until the girl disappeared in the distance. It was hard to let Kimmy get away from him. But no matter how Kimmy matures, Kimmy is entitled to his world.
Seriate...
