GROWINGS

The two now stand facing each other. Looking at each other with strange gazes-that cannot be expressed in words.

"Dafa, Kinno is the only child Om has.

"Hi Kinno, I'm Dafa."

Dear outspoken hands and warm greetings from Dafa, not immediately welcomed by the oriental-faced teenager.

"You don't mind if Kinno stays here?"

Dafa shook his head. Quite the contrary. In this way, doesn't that mean he'll have a new friend?

"Dad, I don't want to live in this prison!!"

"So your mouth's been here!" Danu pressed his sentence. "At least until Daddy completes all the Dafa school registration."

Kinno rolled his eyeballs. He did not know he would do anything in a room that had no windows at all.

"Oh yes Dafa, Kinno brought you a birthday present."

"Really?!" The eyes of Dafa are full-spherical.

"Well, Kinno, let's quickly give the gift..."

"Dad...!!" Kinno. He also saw his father's ridiculous attitude.

Lazily and ogah-ogahan, he opened his backpack. Then give a gift to Dafa.

"Thank you, Kinno."

"Yes.." Answer Kinno lazily. A second later he had already thrown his body onto the Dafa mattress.

"You have to remember what your purpose is in this house, okay?!" Danu hissed near her son's ear.

"Yaudah, that's where we go!"

"Be aware that you dare to do anything with him!"

Kinno pulled the Dafa sleeping pillow. Then cover her face with that pillow. It seemed like he wanted to quickly put an end to all this.

"Dafa, Om Danu leave first huh. If you want to wonder about school, just ask Kinno."

"Okay, Om."

Dafa glanced at Kinno. He saw Kinno who had even fallen asleep while hugging his roll.

"Kinno, I still have my birthday cake yesterday. You want to not?"

Kinno opened one of his eyes. Sighing short with one big question in his head.

Why did he have to meet a strange human like the person in front of him now anyway?!

"Well if you don't want to." Dafa returned the piece of tart to the refrigerator. Then he went back to Kinno. "I've got a lot of treasure in that closet."

Dafa opened a wooden cabinet with a very beautiful and artistic carving.

"There's milk boxes, wafers, cikis, biscuits just like my piggy bank."

Yep.. Yep.. Yeah, so that's what the treasure is all about.

Kinno slowly closed his eyes. His drowsiness was caused because yesterday he trained with friends at his school until late at night. Until it makes the energy and time drained.

"Kinno, have we met before?"

Kinno opened his eyes. He threw Dafa with the seat pad.

"I want to draw first. You go to sleep first."

Kinno did not answer. Because he was busy chatting ria with his school friends. There is nothing to talk about, other than the cooking tournament that will be held in less than a week.

So excited to reply to the chat of his friends, he did not know that now it is 5 pm.

"Kinno, I'm gonna take a shower. You'll take a shower don't mess with my toys.."

Kinno pretended to be ignorant of everything that the strange person with his clear blue eyes was doing and saying.

But his eyeballs always moved silently, watching every move Dafa made.

"Good afternoon, Den Kinno. The Mbok prepare dinner first."

Now his attention was turned to the old woman who entered the Dafa room with an iron stroller, and arrange some dishes containing rice and side dishes on a wooden round table near the lamp table.

He began to think that living here was not as bad as he had imagined. At home, he had to get down from the second floor, just to enjoy a very bad dinner with his father.

But here, he does not need to get out of the room, because all of them have served.

"Bok, I'm done showering."

"Sir Popo please tidy up first yes, I want to take care of Den Dafa for a while."

"Yeah.."

Kinno attached his gaze to that figure no taller than him. Who currently only uses ************* which is yellow, and his stomach and back are being covered in eucalyptus oil by Mbok Parni.

"Mbok, I want to eat indomie stew dong.."

"Tomorrow, Den. Now the Mbok made quail soup with chicken soy sauce."

"There's a cracker, isn't there, Mbok?"

"She, Den."

After putting on her pajamas on Dafa, Mbok Darmi picked up the rice with his side dish, then began to feed the boy, who was sitting watching Kinno who was still reluctant to get off his bed.

"Kinno, why don't you eat?"

"I'm not a laper."

Krueyukkk...

Dafa snickered at the sound of Kinno's stomach rumbling just now.

"Mbok Parni's cooking is delicious, Kinno. But sometimes I like the salinity."

Kinno also came down from his bed. He went to the two-door refrigerator near the bathroom door.

But as soon as he opened it, he immediately closed it again. Because the contents of the refrigerator are none other than pudding, pudding, and pudding.

"No fruit or anything like that?"

"There's at the dinner table, Kinno. If you want, we can go downstairs together."

"Don't, Den. Let the mbok take it."

Kinno is now sitting on a milk-brown sofa flanked by two large shelves containing a collection of small-sized cars owned by Dafa.

There is no x-box, playstation, wifi, and even a 60-inch led tv that only displays a video recorder about nature, which continues to play repeatedly.

"Kinno, I'll sleep under her."

Kinno woke up from his daydream. He found Dafa carrying his pillow, bolster and blanket, under his bed.

He was really confused by the behavior of conscious people who were busy themselves. Take the dolls and toys, and also the picture books, and then bring them under his mattress.

Rather than torturing himself, Kinno ended up eating as well. He was eating it very quickly. Even to add twice with many portions.

"Looks like you're so hungry, huh?"

Kinno realized that Dafa was watching him from under his bed.

Finished eating, Kinno opened his backpack. Take a towel and disappear behind the bathroom door.

"Den Dafa, the lights want the Mbok to turn off or keep it on?"

"Deady, Mbok.."

Dafa turned on a small flashlight and pointed it at the reading book he was reading.

Cklek.

The room lights up again. To get Dafa out of hiding.

"I can't see it.." Tukas Kinno ruffled the contents of his backpack.

"You want me to use eucalyptus oil as powder too? Let it smell and sleep later can be good.."

Kinno put out a special perfume for guys. Then spray it on his armpits and body.

"Don't you have a perfume like this?"

Dafa shook his head. "Well mother, perfume is a lot of alcohol. I'll be able to mabok."

Kinno rolled his eyeballs. "It's just sprayed onto the body. Not to drink."

"Ohhh.., okay!" Dafa went back into hiding.

"You don't have a phone, do you? I pinjem charger dong.."

Dafa came out from hiding again. "What kind of a wine is it, Kinno?"

Kinno showed his samsung galaxy note 8 on Dafa.

"So soon, I'll look in the closet."

Kinno was apparently somewhat curious about what was inside the glass cabinet. He wanted to look into it but was blocked by Dafa's body.

"What is this like, hapenya?"

Kinno swallowed. Because Dafa even offered the same exact hape box as his, but the box was still in a perfectly sealed state.

"Yes, same exact."

"Wait..!!" Kinno reflexively held Dafa's hand.

'Kinno, hurry!! Don't let us get caught by that fierce old man!'

Kinno reflexively pulled his hand. The voice just now -- - it seemed like he had heard of it. It's just, he doesn't know for sure.

"This charger. But then don't be plugged all night. You see, if it explodes, your mother's house will be able to fire.."

Kinno was still silently glued. His eyes were still centered on the box that had just been opened by the freak - and then, his hape and cardboard were just lying on the floor.

"Kink..."

"Hmmm..."

"You haven't slept yet..?"

How Kinno was able to fall asleep, while his schoolmates' whatsapp group was busy discussing about the national cooking tournament.

"I thought you were a very nice person, Kinno..."

Kinno removed his hape from his sight. What was that, he heard wrong or vice versa?

"Then I'll tell you a big secret I kept in this room.." Dafa poked his head out from under his bed. And so did Kinno who also changed his sleeping position, with his head on the edge of the mattress.

Again, the eyes of the two met again for a while...

"But you have to promise first, you can't divulge this secret to anyone. Including the same mother, Om Danu, Mbok Parni and Mr. Popo.."

But Kinno even returned to sleep in his original position. For what reason should he listen to the ridiculous remark of that strange and extremely foolish person.

"Kink..."

"I'm so fucking asleep!"

"I kept that secret under my bed. Remember, this secret is only me and you know..."
