Little Star
Bonding.

"God knows what's best for you, Ar. You have to be sure, get through everything easily."

"Let's enjoy it and say whatever. I'm ready to be my shoulder to tell stories. I'm sure your mom can change." Sorin said with passion to Ardi.

That word of faith was thrown from Sorin's mouth. As if Ardi's battery power is rising and improving.

Sorin believes the storm of Ardi's life must disappear, just as he must always be strong to do exhausting activities for the future. One day Sorin was convinced happiness would come for those who would fight.

"Don't be sad, Ar. I'm sure you're strong until the last point."

Ardi turned to Sorin, raising his little finger. "Lo promised me that he was always there for me."

Sorin's pinkie merges with Ardi, both of whom promise that there will always be. "Yes Ardi. Promise."

The smiles of the two bloomed perfectly like flowers.

The next day, Sorin took a day off work. He woke up early, planning to go to the market. He was ready to leave the house to open the door, not unexpectedly Henry was already in front of him.

"Henry?!" A surprised intonation appeared on Sorin's face. He shakes unexpectedly. 

"When has it been at the door? I almost got my heart out." Sorin said while stroking the chest. 

"Just now." Henry said as he watched Sorin from top to bottom. 

Sorin just silently looked at Henry.

"Why is your view like that? Is something wrong with me?" Sorin asked in curiosity. 

Henry shakes. "Where are you going?" 

"Owh. I'm going to the market." Sorin told Henry.

"Come, I'll take you." 

Sorin was silent as he looked at Henry. "Come on. Why daydream!"

"Gue Anter." asserted Henry.

"Yes." Yeah." Sorin nodded.

Both are in the car. The awkwardness was still felt because some days Sorin did not communicate with Henry at all. Because he spent time with Ardi.

"Lo with Ardi, dating?" chirping Henry started a conversation with Sorin.

"Why laugh? My question is funny."

"Yes, funny. I'm the same Ardi was just good friends. Why is your question like that?" Sorin explained casually to Henry. However, Henry replied expressionlessly. Sorin received a tense flat expression.

Sorin remained relaxed. He was innocent and did not realize that Henry did not want to see the closeness of the two of them.

"What do you want to buy at the market?"

Henry did not want to dissolve in his own annoyance. He prioritizes comfort when with Sorin.

"Shopping. Make it cook." Timpal Sorin looked the other way.

"Himself cooking?" ask Henry a second time.

"Yes Hen."

Henry's question is like interrogating. Sorin did not realize Henry was very protective of him. Sorin answered what it was.

Henry still means Sorin's eyes. Because Henry was very helpful to himself from the beginning. Like the debt of gratitude that Sorin always records every day.

They both arrived at the market. Henry follows Sorin and helps bring whatever needs Sorin needs.

"Lo eat by yourself?"

"Yes, I don't shop too much."

"A lot of shopping. Don't you want to earn extra money?"

"You mean?" Sorin gawked at hearing it.

"Yes. You don't want to sell. Make extra snacks or savings."

Henry is very concerned about the economic issues. Because Henry has learned a lot from his late mother.

"Ah, yes too. Why don't I have an idea like that?!" Sorin was ashamed of himself, because Henry gave input to previously unthinkable ideas.

"Rin, I'll give you the capital money." Henry glanced at Sorin who was still thinking hard.

Sorin would rather walk ahead of Henry. Henry tried to follow from behind.
