Helena serves bakpao and ginger tea for Pak Kasan and Pak Surya.


"Sir, sleep don't be too late. I want to go with Grandmom and Sky to the hall." Pamit Helena's.


"Yes, son." Answer mr. Kasan briefly.


Helena stepped into the hall following the grandmom and the Sky.


It looks like the sky is busy distributing some parcels in the form of clothes, toys and stationery for the children of the home.


"This is Mr. Lenka, the future wife of the Sky mas." Sky Spoken.


"Haiii sis Lenka, greetings." Compact kids say hello to Helena.


"Hi, all." Reply Helena while waving her hand.


Helena joined the hall, listening to the children sharing their daily activities one by one by mentioning their names and ages first.


"Hi, my name is 9-year-old Alvin. I was happy because it was for the report, my grades were good and I went up to 3rd grade. Thank you to grandmom, Mr. Surya and the nanny brothers as well as my brothers who have supported me."


Prok.. Prok. 2x clapping.


Hi, my name is 16-year-old Vania. I was also happy just now for my excellent grade report and getting ranked 1st again, I went up to 3rd grade SMU. Thank you to grandmom, Mr. Surya and the nanny brothers as well as my brothers who have supported me."


Prok.. Prok.. Applause 2x back.


"Hello, I'm 3-year-old Darel. I am happy and sad at the same time. I'm happy to be able to help Grandmom cook. Sadly.. Right now when I came to the market Lily, I was lost because I missed..


"Haha..." Many of Darel's friends laughed at the smallest member of the parlour.


"Already, already.. Next time you have to be careful if you come to the market, yes Darel." Grandmom message.


"OK, continue." Pinta Sky.


Cuggle.. Hi, my name is 10-year-old Radit. I'm ashamed and sad my grades are ugly and I don't go to class."


Silent.


"Radit, don't be sad. Class is a normal thing. That means you have to learn more. Stay upbeat, yes. Other siblings, too, do not be inferior even if your grades are bad, still have to be diligent in learning. You also have to find at least 1 thing that interests you. For example sports, singing or certain subjects in school, so that the minay will be honed." Spontaneous Helena advised the orphanage children, making grandmom and Sky moved to see Lenka's attention.


"Almost forgot, Lenka had brought a bakpao from Jakarta. Make yourself. Come can be eaten while sharing, do not fight 1 person can take 2 pieces yes." Sky Spoken.


After listening to the children tell stories, it is the Sky's turn to tell stories for them. Children, especially young ones, are sitting closer and closer to Heaven and Lenka.


Happp..


A 3-year-old boy unhesitatingly jumped sitting on the lap of Heaven.


"What's your name, baby?" Helena asked with a smile touching the child's fingers.


"Darel, brother" he answered.


"Come on Sky, when did the fairy tale begin?" The children began to grow impatient.


"Yes, here. Sleepy hooze." The other timpal.


"Before you tell me, Lamgit has an announcement for you."


The children began to quietly prepare to listen to the continued sentence Sky.


"Tomorrow morning after breakfast, mas Langit will take you a walk to the dreamland waterpark."


"So later, before going to bed each prepare his personal needs, such as a change of clothes, towels and soap. Naaaa.. Now listen to the fairy tale Mas Langit."


The children with their arms hugging each listened solemnly to the story conveyed by the Sky.


"A long time ago, in a kingdom on an island lived a beautiful princess named Rose or Rose Princess. He was called so because he had long red hair that resembled a rose. Rose loves roses so much and has such a good character that the people love her as sincerely as their hearts.


Hm.. Let alone the children, Helena was also amazed by the way telling the sky that can change the mimicry and intonation of her voice when there is a conversation between characters. So exclaiming.


".. Because the witch's crimes had so accumulated, her body had exploded into small pieces. Rose and continue their activities with golden birds for a long time, roses can grow back around the kingdom, until now we can see roses grow beautifully. I see." The sky closes the fairy tale


"Well. the story is finished, try about what message you want to convey through the fairy tale?" Ask Sky provoked the reaction of the children who had heard his fairy tale.


"Ga can be envious, mas." Answer one of the children.


"Ga's desperate, ma'am." Shirt the bigger kid.


"Ga can hold hatred."


"Ga can take revenge, ma'am." Another one.


"Orely all, you great children. Through the story we can learn that the first; not to be envious, not easily desperate, and hate and resentment can not solve the problem, too.. Though it may seem difficult and exhausting, kindness and sincerity will always prevail against evil." The words of Heaven belies the story with a message that has a condition of meaning, not only for children but also for everyone who participated in that place without exception.


Now is the time to rest, who will lead the prayer before going to bed?" Ask Sky.


"I, mas." Said the little Darel brandishing his finger.


"Gee, little great kids have the courage to learn to lead." Praise the sky sincerely.


Wow, this seems to be a surefire way for children to imagine and develop their mindsets, as well as to instill ethics and values of life without intending to patronize them directly. Ah, later I will also tell a story like that if I have gathered with my twins Hugo and Hana. Helena's promise in her heart.


After praying the sky, the grandmom, Lenka and the nannies drove the children back to their rooms. Toddlers totaling 4 people are in 1 room with a babysitter. Larger children are grouped with 3 people in 1 room as well as with caregivers according to their gender.


Helena watched the 2-story building in amazement. The upper floor consists of 7 rooms each on both sides with the position of the door facing each other equipped with an empty room that serves as a place to wash, dry clothes and ironing place.


The hall that doubles the dining room and TV viewing room is located on the lower floor, along with 5 rooms each on both sides also with opposite positions.


The space directly adjacent to the hall is a place to cook and wash dishes. There is a door that leads out to the garden owned by gradmom who is treated with the children of the orphanage.


Helena just realized the vacant land between the main building and the orphanage is a multi-purpose field.


"This field is free, sometimes it serves as a place for children to practice martial arts, sometimes volleyball courts, sometimes basketball courts, sometimes badminton courts or anything according to the needs of children." Clearly grandmom as they stepped into the main building house.


"Come, go straight to the room yes you are certainly tired during the trip." Grandmom again.


Helena nodded. After washing his feet he immediately laid his body on the side of the grandmom.


Geck.. Geck..


"Grandmom, can Heaven accompany you and Lenka sleep here?" Ask Sky.


"Hey, don't you have your own room?" Grandmom reply.


"Darling, do you want me to go to bed before you go to bed?" The sky spoke to Lenka, ignoring the word grandmom.


"Ck, don't modus youth. Quickly go back to your room before I pick you up." Grandmom threat.


Helena chuckles.


"Aiiiissh.. Grandmom, I just want to give you a good night's kiss for you and my girlfriend." Answer the sky with a smile.
