METAL CHILD BALLad
MAPLE LEAF PAINTING (Revision)

Nestin was getting anxious because Zike was still getting late in his mind. The girl's facial expression looked flat and became frightening to her best friend Nestin.

"Zain Kamilaa!"

"Eh, uh yeah! What's up?" Zike felt so shocked that he rubbed his chest over and over again, as his heartbeat became quite chaotic.

"Lu why daydream, siiih?" ask Nestin. "Gue was so scared!"

He really just realized from his mind that continues to be overshadowed by the handsome face of Alexi. "Oohh, that was me ...."

"Gue thought you were taking dhemit, you know what?" yell at Nestin while hitting Zike's shoulder.

"Aawwhh!" Zike suffocated while rubbing his slightly painful shoulder.

"Lu deliberately want to fuck me, yak?" asked Nestin while returning to his seat.

"Eh, no. Weeeerr!" zike answered while raising his right hand and brandishing two fingers forming the letter V.

"Next time, you don't daydream that cake again!"

"Oh yes, yesaaa .. I promise!"

"What a hell, huh?"

"Mk." Zike nodded his head.

The two of them did not talk much until late at night. Zike remained faithful to accompany Nestin to study until his tired body drooped in that place and began to explore the dreamland. Zzzz ....

A week has passed, Alexi did not also find Zike. Finally he was very forced to agree to Alexa's invitation to return as soon as possible to the Silver Sanca Sect.

The servants of the inn were standing in a row downstairs, they all dared not look directly at Alexi, they all bowed respectfully to a young newcomer who was now the main boss for all of them, he said,

Now, the inn Cheng Feng was working for was already Alexi's. Not only Cheng Feng's inn, but also the twelve branches had also been purchased by Alexi. The young master of the Silver Sanca Sect did so for the sake of taking revenge on Meilia who had been acting arbitrarily to her heart lover.

"Young Master, don't you intend to rename this inn?" asked Segara while following his young master who currently chose to take a walk to see the state of the inn that had become his.

"Change names?" Alexi asked back.

"Eehh, perhaps the Young Master wants to make changes to the name, order or anything that is not pleasing to the Young Master." Segara just proposed.

"Changed name? Could too. I can combine my name and her name into a good name" Alexi murmured inwardly.

"Zike, what's his full name?" ask Alexi in your heart.

"Aahh shit! Why did I forget to ask him his full name?" Alexi just realized his stupidity. He never even asked where the girl came from.

"State! Please call Ah Liong!" his orders to Segara.

"All right, Young Master!" Segara immediately went to call Ah Liong. The young man never denied Alexi's orders.

Alexi waits for Segara in a large room where it is usually used for a banquet hall, reception or other large events. On the walls of the room was filled with several paintings that Alexi said greatly disturbed his eyes. He did not like any paintings or crafts.

"Not interesting!" muttered Alexi while shaking his head. "Well, just get them all off this wall."

Alexi then observes a painting that looks new. Her pretty eyes closely examine the image of reddish-orange maple leaves deliberately made as in autumn. The picture of the foliage was strewn around the base of a dark brown maple tree trunk. The hand painting looks so natural and vivid. It indicates the ability of the maker who is already quite skilled in the field of painting.

"Just painting leaves like this, why does it look so attractive?" Alexi sat down, and his eyes caught a name tag under the painter's signature.

"Zain Kamila, hmm .. nice name. So, the painter was a woman," Alexi murmured while stroking his chin and his own beard.

"The beautiful maple. Looks like the painter really likes this kind of scene," Alexi said in his heart. "But unfortunately, I don't like paintings."

"Then this?" Alexi examined an embroidered image on a black base cloth framed with a large-sized glassy figura, almost half the height of Alexi's body.

"Beautiful, you sure love embroidery on these flowers." Alexi remembered the mother who loved embroidery very much. "I'll take this home for you."

Alexi then glanced to all parts of the big room and suddenly he remembered Kusuma Jaya. Honestly in his heart, Alexi really did not have the heart and felt that his actions had gone too far. After all, there was a strand of regret for his actions. However, Alexi had already said in front of many people if he would buy the entire inn belonging to the Meilia family who had insulted and expelled Zike his lover.

After all, Alexi also had a high sense of ego in order to maintain his image and reputation as a young master of a famous sect and was quite feared among martial arts experts.

"Am I being too cruel to the teacher's uncle? I have robbed him of his efforts over these five years heartlessly. Just because of one child's fault," Alexi murmured still in his heart.

"Young Master, I've brought Ah Liong." Segara said with respect, even though his position behind Alexi who was still dumbstruck looking at the very beautiful flower embroidery.

"Young Master!" call Segara again.

"Eehh, Se-State!" Alexi stuttered in surprise and immediately turned his body. Segara with Ah Liong stood up while bowing his face.

"Come country, you just surprised me!" Alexi looked a little upset.

"I'm sorry, Young Master didn't listen to me. Since then you daydream," said Segara with a calm voice.

"Have been. Ah Liong, come here!" pinta Alexi wants Ah Liong to get close to her.

"Greetings, Young Master. Is there anything you want to ask or is there anything you need from me?" asked Ah Liong with a respectful attitude.

"Yes, just go ahead. Emmh .. I want to ask you." Alexi walked up to Ah Liong and whispered, "Take care of me, lest Segara hear what I'm going to ask."

"Tu-Master, Young Master wants to ask about what? I'll answer as long as it's something I know." Ah Liong said with a misbehavioral feeling. Alexi's handsome, pretty face was so close to her. He could even feel the warm breath of Alexi buzzing near his left ear.

"I just want to ask. .. What is Zike's full name?" alexi was still whispering.

"So, Young Master doesn't know his full name yet?" Ah Liong asked in surprise.

"Leave you answer! Why ask back?" Alexi said in a annoyed tone.

"Oh, sorry! Forgive me, Young Master." Ah Liong covered his own mouth with both palms. "Zike stands for his real name, which is Zain Kamila."

"What?" Alexi involuntarily strangled to make Segara who had just been silent to see the two people in front of him were whispering to be shocked.

"Young Master, what's wrong?" Segara asked with an anxious face. He didn't want anything to happen to his master.

"Zain Kamila isn't that the girl the Young Master likes?" ask Segara in my heart. Segara's eyes turned to look at Ah Liong. He was worried if the man had said anything bad and made Alexi surprised.

"You! What have you told my young master? Lookie! The young master became extremely shocked!" Segara snapped at Ah Liong in a furious tone as he moved around clutching Ah Liong's collar violently.

"What happened to that girl?" Segara became riled up and worried that the girl loved by her young master had gone through a bad thing.

"Nothing! Really, I didn't say anything!" Ah Liong started to get scared.

"Not Segara, I'm fine. Calm down!" alexi said while gesturing to Segara to release Ah Liong. 

"Why was Young Master so surprised earlier?" ask Segara still curious.

Ah Liong shook his head. "I really don't know, since he left here no one has heard the news anymore."

"Come, don't worry! Nothing happened. I was just asking Zike's full name" Alexi said, then said, "Honestly, I haven't known his full name yet."

"His name is Zain Kamila. So Young Master all this time, didn't even know about it?" asked Segara again feeling astonished.

"Mk." Alexi nods. "Eh, Stupon. How do you know his name is Zain Kamila?"

"Meilia said it, Young Master," Segara replied without hesitation.

"Oh!" Alexi now turned around and looked back at the maple leaf painting. "So she's ituuu ...."

"What happened to that girl, Young Master?" asked Segara he felt worried, if the girl loved by his young master had experienced something bad.

"Nothing, haven't we got any news about him yet?" Alexi asked back.

"Ah Liong!" call Alexi.

"What is this painting, he made it?" ask Alexi while showing

Ah Liong and Segara come to see the painting intended by Alexi. They were amazed by the simple yet heartfelt painting.

"Yes, Young Master. This painting is indeed Zike's hand," Ah Liong replied. "He is very talented. And that's not just his work."

"Is there still some work?" Alexi looks very enthusiastic. "Take everything, whatever it is!"

...Seriate...
