...“I miss him too. Missed him so much. Why should he leave before I can make him happy?” – Benicio Sanchez...
When Benicio asked about her room that turned into all femininity, the same time Lucy entered the house. Benicio was increasingly astonished to look at the old woman who had started to enter his house casually.
“Do not say—”
“Mommy,” said Ciara while turning around and running towards Lucy.
Benicio's words stopped when Ciara called Lucy ‘Mommy’. Throw right! That woman is Ciara's mother. What the hell have they both done to the point that Abercio happily let the two parasites hitch a ride in the house?
“Ciara, don't run,” Lucy told the spoiled Ciara. “You want to be the wife of someone!”
“Yes because of it. Before becoming someone's wife, I want to be satisfied first with Mommy,” whine Ciara while putting on a sullen face.
Lucy looked towards Abercio. Then he looked towards Benicio who was on the stairs. The figure of the man he had never seen before. The figure of a foreign man but similar to Abercio.
“Surely you are Abercio's sister?” ask Lucy gently.
“It turns out you are more handsome when you are an adult huh?” keep Lucy smiling.
“You sure haven't eaten yet? Come on, Mommy bought some food before you came home.”
Hearing Lucy's invitation, Benicio rolled his eyeballs while sighing heavily. He really does not like to see Lucy who pretends to be good for him. For him, there is no truly good human being in this world without expecting anything.
Benicio twisted his body. He went to the guest room next to Abercio's office. Then he threw his body on the bed with both hands spread wide. His eyes stared at the ceiling of the room with a carefree and empty look.
“And this family is not divided,” murmured Benicio quietly. A moment later he closed his eyes.
...❣️❣️❣️...
That night, when everyone was asleep, Benicio woke up. His stomach is rumbling because it has not filled anything.
Kruyuk!
Benicio forced his eyes to continue sleeping. But difficult! His stomach was really hungry at that moment. He glanced at the wall clock. Time shows twelve o'clock past.
“Haaa ..” Benicio sighed heavily.
The man sat up from his sleep, then he stretched his body by raising both his hands into the air.
Without feeling, Benicio's eyes glazed over. Tears of sadness began to drench his cheeks as he looked at the end of the stairs to descend to the first floor. Beautiful memories, a glimpse flashed through his mind. His chest suddenly tight and full.
“Mama!” shouted Benicio who was then seventeen years old.
The man who was still wearing white-gray school clothes was shocked when he was at the end of the stairs. Highlight his eyes were fixed on the figure of Eve lying in front of the door of the room now occupied by Abercio.
Benicio hurriedly ran towards Eve and grabbed Eve's body into her embrace. Then he ran Eve down the stairs with a face so pale and full of fear.
When the bitter memory flashed through Benicio's mind, Milo suddenly came to Benicio with a sad look. It was as if he was sad even though he did not know the cause of Benicio's sadness.
Benicio squatted in front of Milo. Milo looked at her with her eyes red and wet with tears. He tried to smile at Milo who was staring at him.
“Hey, Buddy,” says Benicio slowly. “Since when were you adopted in this house?”
Milo did not respond. He was silent and occasionally his eyes flickered staring at Benicio whose eyes were still wet from crying.
“Surely you were also separated with your parents, ‘kan?” ask Benicio to Milo.
Milo, who was only a pet of Abercio, could say nothing but look on his pity at Benicio.
“Did you miss your mother?” ask Benicio again.
“Nggg ..” Milo said quietly with a sad expression.
“Hahaha!” Benicio laughed softly at Milo's behavior. Maybe the animal will answer the question.
A moment after he laughed, Benicio bowed while massaging his head roughly. He stared at the floor and his tears fell down profusely soaking the floor. Drop by drop fell with an intolerable sob as he did not want anyone to wake up that night.
“I miss him too. Missed him so much,” isak Benicio lirih. “Why should he leave before I can make him happy?”
Milo, aware of Benicio's grief, approached and raised both hands to Benicio's shoulders. Then, he landed his head on Benicio's shoulder like he was hugging the body of a man who was sad at the time.
Benicio laughed in his tears. Seeing the response of the dog, inexplicably made his heart more pity and sorrow. How can an animal be so sensitive and have feelings? Unlike his father who was human but behaved like an animal?
At the same time, when Benicio was shedding all his tears on Milo, at that very moment Lucy looked at Benicio from a distance with a feeling of pity. Her instincts as a mother suddenly filled and disturbed.
