He has a strong memory, once people say something painful then he will think about the speech until his head feels falling out because of thinking.
"Mom, what's a swollen Dance eye?" ask her to the mother.
The middle-aged woman smiled. The heart of this one child is soft and sensitive so no wonder if it is easily touched by words that hurt his heart.

"There is, sir," replied Mentari, showing him a piece of paper in his hand.
