Light For Stars
Chapter Eight


"If he stays here for a month, our meal money will swell up? Make the three of us eat mediocre, now you have to increase the burden of eating, boy," replied Aunt Laksmi.


"Yes... How else, Auntie was the aunt who just challenged him?" The light could only scratch his head that was not itchy.


Aunt Laksmi stared at the Light with a look of regret. "Are we off?"


"Tante, if we cancel that bet. He'll surely insult us all out. Never mind, we just go according to the deal. Aya sure really, if he will not be at home for a month," replied Light. He has the belief that rich people like the Stars will definitely not feel at home living in a full house without any facilities.


"Are you sure he won't be at home?" Aunt Laksmi made sure.


"Yakin, Aunt. So, Auntie take it easy. Anyway as long as he stays here with us, we can benefit him. Think of it in exchange for living expenses during her stay here."


Aunt Laksmi thought of the answer that Light gave just now. "You're right, besides we can use his energy to help us, we can also benefit from his looks like an artist. Aunty sure, if we take him to the yard sale, the girls will be interested to see his charming looks, so they will buy our merchandise deh." Aunt Laksmi imagined the scene according to the contents of her current head.


"Indeed he's handsome? According to Aya B."


A toyoran floated on the head of Light. "You're it! Can't your eyes see that a child is really handsome? It's a minus behavior, but about the face he includes the dreams of girls today," explained Aunt Laksmi.


The star simply rolled both of its eyeballs.


"Yes, Aunt. Rather than aunty muji tuh guy's face, how about we start doing our job? So, can we go to sell earlier than usual?" bring Light.


"Yes, you're right. Aunty sure, our sales will be selling well. Just look!" The smile of the sumringah continued to be engraved on the lips of Aunt Laksmi. His spirit of selling this time increased many times over. Moreover, he was sure that a hundred or even a thousand percent of girls would be captivated by the handsome face of the young man he helped last night.


"Ohya, Aya. Where is your uncle? How not been seen since this morning?" ask Aunt Laksmi. She just remembered that since waking up, she had not seen the figure of her husband.


"Uncle went with Mr. De Rustam to his workshop this morning."


"Why is your uncle there?"


"Uncle said he wanted to work in his workshop Mr. De Rustam," replied Light.


"Your uncle, even though his health has not recovered. Both of his legs were paralyzed, how could he work?" Aunt Laksmi let out a long breath. Although chatty, Aunt Laksmi at least had the heart to see the person she loved tired. Moreover, she is her husband.


"Uncle says, he can help you sleep or what it is in his workshop Mr. De. Although not paid the same as other workers, Uncle was satisfied because he could give a living to Auntie. Uncle said giving a living was his duty as a husband. Moreover, it has been three months he did not work anything," Light explained. He was right with his hard-working character.


"Amen." The light rubbed his face with both palms.


"Yes, yuk. We must not lose to your uncle. If he is a spirit of work, we must also be more enthusiastic. Moreover, there is a charming face that will be our good luck charm." Aunt Laksmi giggled at the thought of many young women who would eat at her lap later.


The light again sighed, it could be that Aunt Laksmi had such thoughts. No longer want to comment, Light first moaning towards the kitchen.


"Hish, you little boy. Do not know if a handsome face can be used for promotional media. Especially if it goes viral in cyberspace," murmured Aunt Laksmi. "Unfortunately, I don't have a good phone, there's also old fashioned phone calls and text messages." Laksmi again lamented his life which these few months felt difficult. Yes, the android phone owned by Aunt Laksmi and Light has been sold 3 months ago to connect their living costs and trading capital.


At 2 pm, Aunt Laksmi began to organize her merchandise onto the cart. Not forgetting they left rice and side dishes on the table in the living room as her husband's dinner. This afternoon the uncle had told through a short message that he had lunch because the lunch workers had been guaranteed by Mr. De Rustam. Aunt Laksmi also entrust the house keys to Mr. mantri because only men who work in the health service are the closest neighbors to his home.


"Everything's been taken, right, Aya?" Aunt Laksmi asked one last time before they left to sell.


"Already, Auntie," replied Light because it had checked their merchandise three times. He was sure that nothing was left behind even the tent for sale was already neatly hanging on the cart.


"Yo wes let's go. Auntie can't wait to see our trade rame!" Aunt Laksmi is excited again.


"Yes, Aunt. Come on!" reply Light.


The two women of different ages were shoulder to shoulder pulling and pushing their wares. Today both hope that their trading will be rame and sold out. Moreover, this time Aunt Laksmi sold her trade goods more than the previous days.


As usual once they reached the trading location, the two women began to take down all their trades. They also began to install tents and roll out mats as a seating area for buyers. Back Aunt Laksmi smiling sumringah. He remained confident that their trading would be hard-working today. If that happens, tomorrow she will take the husband to the hospital. Since getting out of the hospital once never even once Aunt Laksmi brought her husband to check up because it was constrained by expensive costs. Understandably they are not KIS card recipients from the government because they are not native citizens of the capital. They're just overseas who make a living in another city.


"Yes," call Aunt Laksmi.


"Yes, Aunt. What's up?" Aya.


"Is there really no merchandise we missed?" aunt Laksmi asked.


The light scanned their entire merchandise to be sure. "It seems like it is, Auntie," replied Aya.


"But, why does Auntie feel that something important is missing?" muttered Aunt Laksmi who also scanned their merchandise.


The light returned to thinking, until a few seconds later the two women compactly widened their eyes.
