Happy Reading

__________________

Helsha stared at her phone screen, Helsha had been trying to contact Varka for two days but never got a reply. The message that Helsha sent was also not reciprocated, the phone was not picked up and what made Helsha more worried that the man had not been in school for two days.

"Vark... Where the hell?

Helsha was worried" Helsha muttered as she looked at the photo of Varka on her Mobile.

____

For two days now Varka was only languishing in his room, he did not go to school or out of the house. Varka only occasionally goes out of the room if he feels thirsty and hungry. In fact, since the incident two days ago neither Clara nor Juna came to Varka or asked how she was. Varka can only be alone when she feels pain

Varka sighed softly when suddenly the part of the leg that was hit by the tempo hit was painful. Varka rubbed it slowly while occasionally blowing it so that the ngilnya slightly reduced.

Varka got out of bed, he wanted to go downstairs looking for a cure to relieve the pain in the bruised body part. Varka stepped his legs slightly limping slowly, he was also a little cautious fear if it turned out that there were both parents.

Varka breathed a sigh of relief when she found that today there was no one in her house. Actually even if they all exist it is not a problem, it's just that again Varka feels himself never considered to be in this house. Even today when everyone is gone he is not told and is only left alone.

Varka smiled wryly when she found that there was nothing downstairs, she then sat in the middle room and sighed a little tight. Several times Varka tried to contact his parents but no one answered. No one really cares about him.

Varka walked slowly while stepping out of the house, and without a second thought Varka walked away from his house to go to the place where he often went when sad. No matter the condition and the pain he felt, Varka still walked towards the beach.

Arriving there Varka immediately sat his body on the beach, again Varka sighed tired. His eyes stared in amazement at the orange sky before him, it felt calming.

While enjoying the beautiful scenery in front of him, suddenly his phone vibrated indicating the message entered, a beautiful arch was immediately engraved beautifully on Varka's face when reading a message from Helsha. In the message, Helsha said that if she wanted to meet Varka, it had been two days that Varka had avoided Helsha and had never informed her.

Shortly after Varka's phone rang and this time it was a phone, Varka chuckled as she looked at the caller's name on the phone screen.

"Vaaarrrrkkaaaaa....." Calling Helsha over there makes Varka laugh

"Hmm yes... No need to scream" said Varka

"NOT REALLY MET FOR TWO DAYS...!! VARKA NO NGABARIN HELSHA IHH...!!" Omel Helsha made Varka laugh again

"I'm sorry." said Varka.

"Helsha wants to see Varka...." Helsha

Varka turned her eyes to some bruises on her hands and feet, she just smiled softly

"Not now Sha" said Varka

"Hhh why??"

"Father, don't do it now" Varka said.

"Varka gap, right??"

Varka was silent when Helsha asked about her situation, should she tell him what happened to her and the reason why she avoided Helsha for two days. Varka sighed then shook her head, no she could not tell the woman.

"I'm Gapapa kok Sha." said Varka

"li... Varka the answer is old." said Helsha

Varka smiled, but Helsha could tell when she was lying.

"Varka don't lie, Helsah knows Varka's lying. Answer Helsha... Varka Gapapa's? Varka's sick? Varka why? Answer dong Helsha worry ihhh..." Helsha sounded very worried

Again Helsha speech was able to make Varka smile, it turns out like this it feels worried by someone.

"Helsha.." call Varka

"Hm.. Varka why?"

"Sorry varka?"

"DID IT..?!! WHY APOLOGIZE?? VARKA WHYAAA????" Helsha half-collared

"I'm sorry Helsha, Varka is sick again" Varka said

"AAHH VARKA MAH!! WHY DIDN'T YOU SAY... HELSHA VARKA'S HOUSE YES, TUNGUUUUU!!"

"DON'T!!!"Varka shouted as she heard Helsha's words

"Don't go home" said Varka

"Why?"

"This time, to the beach? I'm here again"

"WHO IS IHH?"

Varka laughed at Helsha's voice which almost cried out in shock

"Alone, come here. But don't be angry later?"

"What then? Why?"

"Just promise first don't get angry" Varka said

"Hmm yes... Yaudah I went there. THE FURNACE!!"

"Yes Sha, be careful on the road"

After that, the phone connection was cut off. Varka smiled happily, Helsha is really adorable. Although Varka only heard her voice but the girl was able to make Varka laugh.

Varka immediately pulled up her sleeve to cover up some of the bruises she had on her hand. Varka just doesn't want Helsha to see the bruise, she doesn't want Helsha to worry and ends up being sad. That's enough, just let Varka feel it.

"Varkaaa....!!" Helsha's shout made Varka who was sitting directly turn her head.

Helsha ran over to Varka and sat down next to Varka.

"Who's here?" Ask Varka

"alone"

"I'm sorry to have taken you for coming here.."

"Ihh gapapa, Helsha who wants to see Varka"

Varka smiled, he saw a few strands of Helsha's hair flying in the wind and hit Helsha's tiny face. Varka chuckled softly, then her hands stretched out to tidy up Helsha's hair strands and tucked her behind Helsha's ears.

"If you go to the beach, bring Helsha's hair, let her hair not get wind like this"

Helsha chuckled and turned to Varka.

"Hehehe yes Varka, sorry to forget"

Since Helsha's arrival, Netra Varka has not been separated from the girl's face. Just look at how beautiful and adorable this girl is. Her sparkling eyes, her sharp nose, her thin lips, her tiny face, and her smile were truly able to heal Varka's pain.

I don't know when this started, but Varka feels that Helsha is the baby's new opium. Opium that always makes Varka want to be with Helsha.

"Sha.." said Varka

"Yes Varka" answered Helsha softly.

"You are so beautiful" said Varka made Helsha who was playing the sand stop for a moment and looked at Varka with a shocked look.

"That's... Womb!!"

Varka chuckled, he laughed quite loudly when he saw Helsha's slightly flushed face.

"I'm not a Helsha gombal..." Varka

"Varka don't be a tombal, we're still little..."

"Udah gede Sha, soon we are seventeen years old weeee" said Varka as he stuck his tongue towards Helsha

"Yes but now we're still sixteen years old..." Reply helsah does not want to lose which again can make Varka laugh

"You know, you don't believe it, but I'm talking reality. You beautiful Helsha kayak your Mother"

"DON'T TELL THAT... HELSHA SHYAMUU IHH VARKA MAHHH..." Helsha's words that immediately smothered Varka's mouth with her hands made Varka laugh even more.

"Hahahaha cieee shy.hahaha"

"Hahaha that's so funny..." Varka.

As Varka was laughing, Helsha's eyes unintentionally saw something that she thought was very strange.

"Varka?" Helsha

"Hmmm.."

"Why is your hand blue?"

Varka shifted the focus that initially saw Helsha now his gaze was fixed on his arm.

Varka was silent for a moment, then he quickly pulled back his sleeve to cover the bruise, but Helsha held Varka's hand and immediately pulled Varka's sleeve up to make Varka gasp in shock.

"This is why Varka?" Helsha asked a few bruises

Helsha then pulled back the sleeve of Varka's other clothes, making Helsha again made surprised when she saw him.

"Varka why?" Ask Helsha

"Father of Sha" replied Varka

"Lied..."

Varka was silent

"Varka, were you hit?" Ask Helsha

Varka was silent again

"If Varka diem means true. Who was Varka hit with?" Ask Helsha

"Vark.... Answer, who hit?"

Varka sighed then looked at Helsha

"Father Sha..." Lirih Varka's.

For some reason, suddenly Helsha's body felt weak, her chest felt tight as if something had hit her. His heart ached and ached at Varka's bruises.

"Vark... So you didn't go to school and didn't want to see Helsha for two days yesterday because of this?" Helsha asked who was replied by a nod by Varka.

Helsha rubbed Varka's bruises gently, it was painful to see this man hurt.

"Varka why?... Why does Varka always keep things like this? Why does Varka love to be alone? Why Varka?"

"Helsha said it to Varka... If Varka's sick, Varka is sad, says Helsha. Varka is not sad alone, not sick alone. As if Varka can for Varka pain as Helsha..why the hell??" Helsha who had involuntarily dropped her tears.

Varka was silent to see Helsha who was now sobbing alone

"Helsha sorryin Varka... Sha don't cry"

Helsha looked at Varka with tears still flowing, she was confused by this male nature before her. Why does this guy always keep everything to himself.

"Varka, Helsha doesn't like seeing Varka like gini. It hurts so bad to squirm Varka like gini alone. Helsha has told Varka how many times, Do not be alone Helsha does not like Varka... Helsha doesn't like it..!!" Helsha's words are getting sobbing.

Varka was a little panicked to see Helsha crying, only this time there was someone crying because he saw her condition.

"Sha don't cry, I'm gapapa. It doesn't hurt at all, I'm afraid. Don't cry yet? Sorry I'm Sha..." Varka said as she rubbed Helsha's back gently

"Helsha doesn't like it...." Helsha's voice was sobbing louder

"Sha don't cry... Heyey... It's dong.."

Varka clasped Helsha's hand gently, wanting to convince Helsha that she was fine now

"Udah is crying... Varka hasn't been able to hug Helsha because of that...."

"We're young so Varka can't yet bend Helsha to nenanging helsha... Don't cry anymore, sorry Varka..." Varka tried to calm Helsha down

"Promise first?" Helsha said amid her cries

"What?"

"Varka don't be sick, don't be sad anymore Helsha doesn't like to see it" said Helsha

Varka smiled, then chuckled softly. His hands turned to wipe away the tears Helsha cheeked

"Yes, I promise... Now it has stopped crying" said Varka.

"Promise?" Helsha pointed her little finger

"Yes promise Helsha"

Then Varka linked her little finger to Helsha

"Udah is crying... Ugly know" said Varka again wipe the tears that are still left in Helsha's cheeks

"Varka's ways too..."

"Yes yes. sorry..."

"Vark..."

"Hmmm..."

"Don't hurt anymore?" Helsha

"Yes Helsha, I won't be sick anymore"

"If the pain says yes to Helsha?"

"Yes, Varka said, thank you"

"Helsha babe bangett same Varka..."

Varka smiled and ruffled Helsha's hair

"Varka mah's...."

•^HELSHA POV•

For Helsha, Varka is the figure of a boy who is too good, Varka is also a cheerful child, he likes to smile too although sometimes often jutek with Helsha. But Varka was a real concern, Varka often hinted and ngingetin Helsha about small things that even Helsha was not aware of. Varka also likes to laugh and when he laughs Varka looks very handsome...

But...

Varka is fragile, very fragile...

Varka likes to cry, likes to be sad and Sick alone... Helsha doesn't like that.

Why would a child as good as Varka be treated like that... Helsha knew Varka was a good boy.

Why does Varka love being sad alone? Though Helsha did not want to swallow Varka sad alone, Helsha wanted to nemenin Varka, anyway Helsha will continue to try to make Varka laugh continuously and happy

It feels like Helsha wants to spit adult so that he can hug Varka if Varka is sad again...

Varka sorryin Helsha huh? Sorry because Helsha can't be around Varka every day, Helsha is very sad. Maafin Helsha yes....

Helsha promises not to leave and ngebiarin Varka alone....

The Helsha POV end

___

Helsha stared fixedly at Varka who was looking at the orange sky.

"Vark... Don't get sick anymore, Helsha doesn't like to look at it.."

Varka turned his head for a while and smiled at the words that Helsha had said repeatedly.

"Helsha loves Varka..."

Thanks to the universe for still allowing a smile to be engraved on Varka's face... Thank you for sending Helsha into his life.
