They arrived at a restaurant. Azka ordered some food, which they used to eat together.
While waiting for the food to arrive, Alea and Azka had a little warm conversation.
“How was your day? What's the fun of being a teacher?” ask Azka, who wants to know about Alea's current job.
Alea could only smile, as she was still hesitating with the answer she was about to say.
“Bagimana yes explain it ..” Alea thought of a suitable word, to start their conversation, on the topic of conversation discussed.
Azka chuckled at the confused Alea. “Ya, just slow down the story.”
After taking a few pauses, Alea looked deeply at Azka.
“Yes, as you know, there are definitely risks to be accepted. Whatever job it is, there must be a risk,” said Azka, Alea can only smile to hear it.
Alea was silent for a moment, while still thinking about it.
“So gini .. there is a child who behaves like an adult. I don't know why he's so stiff, and his speech is so stiff. Unlike 5-year-olds in general,” Alea explained to Azka, about a problem she was thinking about.
Azka looked puzzledly at Alea, “What do you mean?” tanyakanya.
“So he was always alone. Even offered sweets, he refused. The reason is because the candy will damage the teeth. Where would a child refuse if given candy? I think it was just him,” Alea explained, Azka became increasingly clueless at hearing his explanation.
Azka pleaded in surprise, “How can there be a 5-year-old child, who is like that?” she was the one who did not believe what Alea said.
Alea's eyes are sharply rounded, “True, Azka! I'm not lying! There's a kid like that. She seemed depressed, so I was a bit interested in her attitude. She is too ... perfectionist!” he confirmed.
To be honest Azka was very distrustful of what Alea had said. The reason is, small children who often meet Azka, must always have a side as a child in general.
“Is there anything besides him like that?” asked Azka, Alea shook her head.
“Nothing. It's just him. He seems to be over-exercising the very strict rules in his family. Sarah said the same I was,” Alea explained.
“Sarah?”
“Ya, a colleague,” Alea explained, Azka can only nod her head small.
“Excuse me,” greet someone from there, who turns out to be a waiter who has brought the food they ordered.
Their attention was immediately turned towards the servant.
“Please,” Alea said, while getting rid of the small bag on the table.
The waiter served food, then kindly looked towards them.
“Order is out all. Anything to add?”
“No,” Alea replied briefly.
“Good, I'm sorry.” The waiter left them there.
Azka grabbed her cutlery, then prepared to eat her food. However, Alea was still silent, her gaze fixed downward, like she was thinking hard about what she was thinking.
Azka noticed it, and gently rubbed Alea's shoulders, making Alea's consciousness return to its original state.
“Eat first,” tell Azka, Alea nods little to hear it.
They also ate the food, with Alea's mind constantly thinking about the child named Ariel.
Alea stepped towards the classroom. There, it turns out that Ariel has come very early, just like yesterday.
Alea halted her steps for a moment, and immediately looked towards Ariel.
‘He's come so early? Just like yesterday. Does he always come in the morning?’ inner Alea, feeling very curious about Ariel.
His curiosity was sidetracked, as one by one students came to his class.
Alea paused his intention, then immediately entered the classroom to immediately prepare the equipment he needed.
When he came home from school, Ariel was seen sitting on the swing. It seems to have become a routine Ariel, because she does not want to socialize with others.
Alea looked over from the front of the classroom corridor, feeling very sorry for Ariel whose childhood was very different from that of a child her age.
‘He really is an introvert. He did the same thing every day, unwilling to socialize, and only came to receive lessons, Alea's inner’ again, which was really getting curious about Ariel's figure.
With her curiosity stirring, Alea immediately stepped towards Ariel and sat down on the swing next to her.
The 5-year-old boy only turned his head for 5 seconds, then immediately looked in front of him again.
Alea seemed to have gotten used to that attitude. He understood, with what Ariel was doing in front of him.
“Who are you waiting for?” aela asked in small talk, to open up a conversation between them.
“Not you already know?” ariel said flatly, without looking at Alea.
Hearing that answer, it really made Alea stroke the chest.
‘I know the answer, but what's wrong with making small talk before starting a conversation? Why is she too stiff for a kid her age?’ inner Alea, while still sighing long.
Alea again focused her gaze towards Ariel, “How’s your day? Was there anything fun during the lesson?” he asked, still trying to get close to Ariel.
“Nothing interesting,” he replied again, still in a flat tone.
This time, Alea was really irritated by the cold demeanor of this brat. However, Alea again had to endure her emotions by not spouting out any words, or expressions in front of Ariel.
Alea's hand reached into his suit pocket. He took some chocolate candy that he always brought with him every day. He extended it towards Ariel, making Ariel turn her head and look towards Alea.
“For you,” Alea said, making Ariel look towards the candy Alea gave her.
For a moment Ariel looked at the candy, and thought something in her heart, which Alea knew nothing about. Alea could only look at her, and wait for Ariel's response.
“Thank you!” said the cynic of someone who suddenly was in front of them.
Alea was surprised, as the person suddenly picked up the candy. Alea looked at him with glaring eyes, feeling very strange looking at the person who was none other than Ariel's servant.
“Young Master we do not eat food like this,” he said, making Alea even more afraid to hear it.
The waiter looked towards Ariel, “Let's go home, Young Master.”
Ariel got up from her seat, then passed away along with her servant, leaving Alea there.
Alea got up from her place, then looked towards Ariel who was walking along with her servant, heading towards a car parked in front of the gate.
