"Waw .. I didn't think you had such an idea. Come on!" Boni looked at Safa with an excited look, Safa chuckled, then simultaneously.
***
At Boni's house, after school.
"I'm home." Boni opened the door of the luxurious house in front of him. The look in his eyes was very empty, like there was no soul in his body at the moment.
"Hmmm don't come home anymore?" muttered Boni while taking off her shoes while walking in.
"Welcome, young lady," said an old woman in a typical black and white dress of a servant. Boni smiled wryly while nodding her head.
"Are my parents not going home again today?" asked Boni with a blank smile. The female servant simply nodded without saying a word.
Boni's parents were a busy man. They even only go home once a year when Boni is still trying 5 years. A sense of loneliness that is increasingly rooted in Boni's heart, making him grow into a strong person and not easily swayed.
And also growing up as a person who does not know affection and is afraid of loss, yes in short. The sympathies and reactions he showed were only part of the calculation of profit and loss from inside his head.
"Oh .. will this time also be long? Can I have my friend stay here?" Boni gave her bag to the waiter, asking in a passionate tone. The female servant nodded.
"Alright lady, I will prepare a snack" the waiter said with a smile.
"Thank you BiBi Aster! I'll call my friend first!" Boni immediately ran up the stairs, towards his room on the second floor. Boni House which is as big as this palace, was originally a house filled with many servants. But since Boni was 7 years old, he fired some of the servants in this house, leaving only a third.
His reason? Because Boni felt the waste of this house was taken care of too well. The only one who lives in this house is him. Aunt Aster was one of the people Boni liked, so she let Aunt Aster keep working here.
As well as Aunt Aster, she already considered Boni like her own niece. He was very happy to see Boni who started to smile back. Safa .. is a child who managed to make Boni feel affection as a human being.
An hour later, a knock on the door sounded from outside the house like this palace.
Boni went straight down in a hurry while tying her hair back, she was still wearing her usual t-shirt as well as half-knee shorts.
Cklek.
"Safa! You really came!" Boni opened the door with a radiant face. Safa stood in front of him, carrying a full backpack that contained nothing.
"of course! My friend offered to stay at his house! How could I refuse! Tomorrow is a holiday!" Safa said in a happy tone. Boni pulled Safa's wrist quickly, then closed the door.
For the first time, the sound of laughter filled this dying house. The servants who heard the laughter of their master also felt happy, they were very grateful because it seemed like God gave Boni a chance to be happy.
But that happiness didn't last long .. because Boni's parents came home at the wrong time.
"Haha! Then did you see the next class kid who got the teacher's law?!" safa asked with eyes that were already watery from laughing continuously.
"You know! They were told to clean the Southern bathroom for a month, right?! The bathroom was dirty, hahaha!" Boni answered with a very happy face.
Until the old man's rough voice shattered their excitement.
PRANGS!
"WHERE'S BONI?! COULD HE NOT COME DOWN AND NOT WELCOME ME?! WHERE'S SHE?!" That loud voice was Boni's father. Safa who was surprised by the voice was instantly silent, Boni also fell silent and stared at the door lazily.
"Wait a minute, I'll clean this up first." Boni took the black hairband on her study desk, and walked out the door.
"What's up, Dad?" Boni went down the stairs while tying her black hair back. Boni's black hair is a derivative of her mother's, while her purple eyes are a derivative of her father's. Therefore, this son and father have the same eye color, which is purple.
"You kids don't know they're lucky! You forgot your father just because there was a friend staying over?! Though you know that I rarely come home because I'm busy! And this is your reply?!" Boni's father asked in an angry tone, but everyone here knew that this was not entirely Boni's fault either, but none of them dared to talk to the employer who gave them a salary.
"All right, sorry, I was wrong. Welcome Dad, is your job in a difficult time? Because it looks like I'm the object of the anger outburst here." Without fear Boni answered her father like that. But the parent was even more angry because his son did not seem to care about him, he immediately walked quickly towards Boni and intended to slap him.
THE PLAQUE!
"HUH? SAFA?! WHY DID YOU GET OUT OF THE ROOM?!" Boni panics when she sees Safa being slapped by her father. The old man with purple eyes immediately looked at Safa with a nagging look, his eyes probing every inch of the girl's body.
"You even hang out with poor kids like this. You seem to have forgotten why I sent you to that famous school? Didn't I tell you to make a good relationship? Why are you even friends with a poor kid like this?" Boni's father's question was like a bee sting that stuck directly in Safa's heart. For a child growing up in an economically difficult family, getting treated like this from a well-respected family is painful.
But Safa did not give up at that moment, she straightened her head and smiled at Boni's father.
"Hello .. uncle? I'm Safa .. Boni's friend at school. Nice to meet you," Safa said regardless of the pain in her cheek. Boni's father clucked in annoyance and then immediately left without returning Safa's greeting.
"Get out of my house fast, it feels so dirty here. Waiter, mops every inch of this house clean."
BLAM!
After saying that sentence, Boni's father went straight into the room while slamming the door.
TBC.
