Chapter 8

“ibu sick? Why to doctor”. Ayu was stingy and suddenly agitated. He cupped his two cheeks.

“nothing. Just get in the wind. Drinking tea mother watno must be instantly healthy.” The answer. Alexi frowned and shook his mother's hand.

“mom still thinks Alexi's a baby boy? Not understanding and not knowing anything? Just the mangosteen of every mother love such a reason?” ayu and bu watno were surprised to get a reply from a 10-year-old child.

Mr. Watno who was 3 meters away from them stood up from his seat and stopped his work tying vegetables when he heard it all. Seemed wary.

“Alexi.

“ Lexi's been big ma'am. Father and grandmother should not treat us like this. Why don't we just run away sch bu!!?”. He added. “ lexi is tired, lexi is in pain every time dad starts hitting us. When grandma hurts us with her mouth. Why don't they love us??? What's wrong mom??? Hu...hu..hu...”. lexi touched his chest, his hands clenched. Ayu and the couple were crying.

Ayu held her son in her arms and muttered apologetically. Many times an apology came out of his lips. He doesn't know what to say. He couldn't stop crying.

Alexi wiped the tears that came down from his two eyes. Swiping his neck. Swiping both of his arms. He held a small vibration in his body. He shivered considering it all. It is so easy for people to be happy above their suffering. Until the end he must feel this? Don't hope.

Diana got up from her bed. His eyes narrowed, a dim light entering through the dark and dewy crevices of the window, his curtains swaying slowly. Time showed midnight and the room lights were off. He tilted his head to the right and left. Slowly he approached the window. Close his forehead and peek.

A dark sedan and dents in some parts were parked haphazardly on the shoulder of the road in front of his house. Two shadow figures faced each other. They seem to be talking. Then someone close to the car walks open the trunk.

Long objects with wide ends. A shovel and one more thing glittered. That's knives. Diana flinched and moved away from the window.

His heart is beating fast. What-what the fuck?!. It was heard from downstairs the sound of the door being closed. She's panicking. Are two people married????. Diana stuck her ear out trying to figure it out. He pulled the door knob slowly. But not flinching.

“.....me..lock it...he has slept like a dead person....sssttss do not make a sound.....keep the knife away......I don't want you to drop him and hit my feet!!!!”.

Diana's eyes widened in shock, and she heard a voice from behind her bedroom door. BiBi Mary's voice??!!!. What he's doing, the thief's his man. He wants to kill me!!!. Diana looked around her room. Where am I supposed to hide??? I gotta get out of here! Diana stared at her bed.

With a tremble he threw a roll in the middle and covered it with a blanket. With a dim light helped him browse through the contents inside his room.

On the side of the window a wooden cabinet at his height stood firm. There's a writing desk that has a deep hole, it's dark like a black hole ready to suck at it anytime.

Then the high bed with long sheets tasseled to cover the legs of the bed. The perfect!!!!! Now I have to have a shield to protect myself!.

Deftly though still trembling in fear, diana opened the desk drawer and searched.

“Kreeekkkkkk.........”. Two figures stood, silently staring intently at the bed.

“ are you ready??”. The bass voice started the conversation. Male voice.

“ ready what? You're the one who played here” whispered Mary fiercely.

“ I've knocked him unconscious. Now it's your turn!” Mary pulled the man's hand and pushed him inside. The man snorted. Slowly but surely he opened the blanket and his mouth gaped wide when he found out in front of him was just a bolster.

“ Mary!!” Mary who felt called turned her head and hurriedly looked at the bed. Emotions up. His skin was goosebumps feeling the coldness that touched him. Two window frames move slowly. Open-ended. A cold wind slipped in. He walked and looked down.

“do you think he's stupid to plunge down without us knowing???” the man throws his lips. “ you are not becus. .”. Mary stood stiffly in the window. For a few minutes he was still staring at the dark expanse before his eyes
