Angel Guard Selena
What a Sweet Attitude

Daniel regretted not picking up Selena and not taking her to visit her father. And now the girl he was supposed to take care of and protect came home with her clothes dirty, and her face red from her father's slap.

"Like this again Cell?"

Daniel asked softly, he knew for sure Selena was feeling pain, especially looking at the blood on the corner of her lips. Daniel felt that the wound was very painful.

With his own hands, Daniel wiped Selena's face and applied the ointment on the corner of Selena's lips.

"Hold ya, it must be a little sore." Say Daniel while applying the ointment on the corner of Selena's lips using a cotton bud.

Selena simply lowered her eyes, she did not dare to look Daniel in the face at all. His heart beat when the cotton bud was at the corner of his lips, but he tried to ignore it. He held a beating in his heart and calmed his own heart.

"It's over." Daniel's speech ended smearing the ointment with a cotton bud at the corner of Selena's lips.

"Thank Dan. Yes, I cleaned first. My clothes are dirty all exposed to Martabak."

"Yes, if I wait here."

"Hemm, yes..."

Selena went into her room, she immediately took a bath because her body smelled Martabak. At once Selena calmed her heart that was too unreasonable when Daniel applied an ointment on the corner of his lips.

While Daniel was in the dining room, he warmed up the Chicken Sop he had previously cooked. He prepared white rice, chicken soup, soy sauce, and a cup of warm tea at the dinner table.

Not long after, Selena came out of her room and found Daniel in the kitchen.

"Here... Come here...." The man waved his hand at Selena.

Selena slowly began to walk towards Daniel, who was now sitting at the table.

"Have you eaten yet?"

"Hmm, not yet."

"If so, let's eat first."

Daniel quickly got some rice and chicken soup for Selena. Not to forget a cup of warm tea, it is also served there.

"Thank you Dan, you're so good." Selena thanked him by holding the corner water in her eye.

"Thank you later. Now eat first, pity your stomach starve." Said Daniel.

"Yes. You don't eat?" Selena asked, because she remembered she was the only one who ate. In retrospect, Daniel rarely even ever ate, eating only chocolate and drinking chocolate.

"Hmm, I've eaten. I'm drinking it. I'm drinking ice chocolate." Daniel answered, sipping his drink.

"Oh, I ate ya. Thanks." Thanks."

Selena ate the food in her plate. Feel how the chicken soup tastes so good.

"Who cooked the chicken soup, hello Dan?"

"Hemm, why?"

"Jawab dong first."

"Hehehehe. Why not good?"

"You? Seriously?"

"hu-um. I'm." Daniel smiled brightly and nodded his head.

"It tastes so good. The spice alloy is fitting. The vegetables don't come out either."

"What really?"

"Yes. It's delicious."

"Not finished, this is a lot. And, since when can you cook?"

"Hmm, not too long ago. Why mother?"

"Cock all the dishes you make good. My lunch box every work I must have finished eating so good. Don't tell me that the recipe and the way the cook looked on the internet, huh?"

Daniel smiled at Selena's words. Because the fact is he did see the recipe and video tutorial from the internet.

"Actually really. I looked at the recipes and video tutorials that home-cooked meals. Abis see practiced dong."

"Beyond? Then why is it so good?"

"Take a. Sometimes today I look around first, tomorrow I try the recipe, cook it yourself."

"Is there a miracle in your hand?" Selena now looked at Daniel's hands, looking at why they could produce such delicious food.

"Where is there a miracle? My hands are ordinary." Daniel laughed as he shook his hand.

"But why is it so good? It's like someone who's used to cooking. Not just cooking, the plants you plant also bloom beautifully."

"If the flowers can bloom beautifully, it is because God grew them. I'm just taking care, my hands can't spread flowers that pretty." Daniel with a smile on his face.

"Selena...." Daniel mentioned the name of the girl sitting in front of him.

"Yes, what?"

"Sorry, why did it happen that way?"

"Oh, which is when I went to Dad's?"

"Yes...."

"Hmm, I suddenly missed Dad, I went there with my favorite Martabak Bangka Dad. Well, but eventually it's all still the same. Even after 3 weeks, Dad still does. Hemmmm.not papa Daniel."

To the extent of feeling or what, Daniel felt Selena smiling bitterly. Daniel guesses whether Selena's heart is back in pain because of her father's attitude.

"Why didn't you just call me? I can accompany you."

"I'm too embarrassed when other people see how I've been slapped and treated like that by my own father. I'm ashamed to have mercy from others, Dan. I'm ashamed others see me as weak and pathetic."

"But I'm not someone else. I'll always be there for you. Whenever and wherever I am, I am always there for you. Don't be ashamed of me. Do not judge yourself as weak and pathetic. It's to me shame is strong, Cell. Yes, you are strong. You can survive the hardships of life, even you don't hate your father. You're great, Cell."

"really?"

"Yes. You're great."

"It's not like that, Dan. Deep in my heart, there are many wounds there and it hurts."

"No, for me you're great. You're powerful. You know the top limit of Cell's affection?"

"Love? What's?"

"The "top limit of affection is when we forgive others who have previously hurt us. And, you have no hatred for your father."

Selena thought about every word Daniel said. Yes perhaps, he was hurt by his father's harsh speech and treatment. Selena did not hate him at all. Selena just wishes her dad could change, leave all his bad good behind and start a new life. But he is his father. If there were no father, he would not exist in this world either.

"I don't hate it, Dan. But I sincerely hope Dad will stop drinking, and start a new life. I really look forward to that day coming."

"Trust Cell. That day will come. As long as you remain hopeful. There are times when God asks us to wait, even long waits, so that we can be patient and happy when the long wait comes."

"Yes Daniel. Hopefully."

Selena smiled at Daniel, she looked at Daniel with eyes hinting at something. His attitude is so good. His words were so wise, his attention to him was also very good. Such a sweet attitude can make people fall in love with the Man from Mars that God sent for him.
