Love Me!

Love Me!
Warmth At The Orphanage


Anna smiled at Susan. He patted the girl's shoulder gently.


"Nothing is impossible in this world, but .. Although you look alike, you are not twins. Your identities are different. The daughter of Yoshua's sister, while you come from quite a family."


Susan smiled at hearing that. However, there was something still pressing on his mind.


"Mom, did you say family was? Do I still have parents? Papa Anton said, My parents are gone."


Anna walked to a shelf. He asked Susan to help him get a book that was old enough but neatly arranged on the brown shelf. Susan grabbed a book with child data and handed it to Ms. Anna.


Anna walked followed Susan to a table. He sat down and took his glasses and put them on before opening the book. Slightly flicked his palm to the book cover so that the dust that was slightly attached, released.


The woman opened the first sheet of the book. It instantly finds Susan's data because she was the first child to break into an orphaned foundation before it became what it is today.


"Yes, both of your parents are dead, Susan. Sorry ..." sorry.


Susan smile. "It's okay, Mom. I'm sure they've rested in peace."


"Emm... What reason did they send me to the orphanage? Aren't they the ones with enough, ma'am?" susan asked curiously.


"So your mom used to be a nurse. He took care of your father until he was well. They both fell in love and you were born, Susan."


"If it's love, why did they leave me?"


"Your father, he was married before. And you were born out of an illegitimate relationship" Anna explained slowly.


Susan felt a great pain in the recesses of her heart. Like a prick, but he has to endure. Finally, only tears came out.


"Prophey, Susan? Human life is a diverse story. I hope you'll never make a mistake like your mother's father did."


Susan wiped her tears. Although realizing useless tears were also flowing from his two eyes, it was enough to make his sense of disappointment a little relieved.


"Now, your life is so much better than both of your parents. However, do not hold grudges against both of them for what they did. They must have had a reason to do it."


Susan nodded. He had just been thinking ill of his late parents, but Ms. Anna had awakened him, without waiting for time to go by.


"Yes, Mom."


"You don't want to find your father's family, do you?" ask Anna Ma'am.


Susan raised her face and thought. Looking for his father's family? Wouldn't that just prolong the problem?


Susan shook her head.


"No, Ma. I just want to know where my parents are buried."


Anna smiled. He easily finds out the funeral data of Susan's father, because Susan's father was one of the orphanage's donors.


"Good, Mom. I'll visit them."


The boisterous sounds of the orphanage children came. They're carrying bags, they're going home from school. The group greeted Anna, as well as Susan.


"This boy is beautiful!" the children looked at Susan in amazement.


Susan was moved by their innocence. These are children who have lost their parents since childhood. There are even some babies left here.


"All of you change your clothes first, then we'll have lunch!" ms. Anna said patiently.


They cheer. It seems like the dinner is very special for them.


Mr. Key's children looked at them with pleasure. Many friends, maybe thought Kin, Celine and Celena.


"Susan, let's eat together!" bring Miss Anna.


"B-can?" ask Susan.


"Of course you can!"


Ms. Anna invited Mr. Anton's entire family to lunch. In a large room with dozens of chairs surrounding a large dining table, they sat waiting. Before long, the children, from the age of five to eighteen, came to the dining room. They sweat but their faces are cheerful.


Chicken soup, fried tempeh, sambal terasi, crackers become the idol of everyone who sits around the dining table. There's no difference there. Only the delicious taste is there. No one doesn't enjoy it. Even Celine and Celena enjoy drinking their milk in the stroller. It turns out that happiness not only comes from a lot of material things, but gathering together with a healthy state also brings happiness.


Ms. Anna introduced and told me about some orphanage children to Mr. Anton's family. They seemed to listen with passion. Sometimes laughing when hearing the excitement and the lameness of the orphanage residents.


Until evening, Mr. Anton's family just say goodbye to come home with a heavy heart.


"We beg of you, Miss Anna. If there is any fault of ours, please forgive us for visiting this orphanage" Mr. Anton said.


"We also apologize for our shortcomings when welcoming or hosting you all" said Ms Anna.


Bianca handed over some money for the orphanage.


"Ah, thank you very much, Mrs Bianca! For sure it will be very useful for all of us" said Ms. Anna.


Susan said goodbye, hugging Miss Anna.


"I'll come often, Mom!" abugn.


"Yes, Susan. You always expected it!" hope Ms. Anna represents all the orphanage residents who feel sorry for Susan. Maybe because Susan was once a part of them.
