METAL CHILD BALLad
TYGRAS

"Being able to stay in this Nameless Pavilion, surely he was not a person that Mei Lan and Ye Kai considered ordinary." Jesssey Liu muttered inwardly. "Don't tell me she's ...."

"But it feels impossible! Ye Kai loved Mei Lan very much and I'm sure she will never forget how she fought for Mei Lan." Jessey Liu tried hard to dismiss prejudice that would certainly not be possible by his best friend. "Then, who is he?"

"Drink! You must be thirsty." Zike feeds the baby tiger with the white UHT milk he had bought before coming to Ye Kai's place.

"Oh yeah, don't we know each other yet? Mmmh .. I'm Zain Kamila, but people call me Zike. It sounds weird, but let it." Zike smiled at the white tiger baby who just opened his mouth to ask for his next bribe.

"So that girl Zain Kamila was her name. Nice too!" thought it was Jesssey Liu who became aware of the name of the girl carrying her white tiger. "And Zike is his calling. All right, I'll remember."

Jessey Liu looked back into the gap with eyes deliberately squinted in order to more clearly catch the figure of a girl named Zain Kamila. So focused was he, that he did not realize at all if there were people who were approaching him slowly. The person behind Jesssey Liu noticed the young man's movements with a strange look while shaking his waist. 

"What's he doing here?" ask the man in your heart. "It looks like he's stalking Zike. It's so weird for her." 

Meanwhile inside the room of the Nameless Pavilion, Zike still continued to feed the baby tiger with great painstaking care. The girl looked happy with this cat-like-faced bristle child who still looked innocent. Zike suddenly saw the front left leg of the white tiger cub. "There's a trace of a bite wound on his leg even though it's dried up."

The girl recalled an article explaining, If the baby tiger is born in a weak state it will usually be preyed on by its mother, because it is considered sick and will not be able to survive longer. "If the article is correct. It could be the victim of a mother bite or the parent male. And it seems, the saying about a tiger never going to prey on its own cubs is just an empty figure." 

"Hey, I've introduced myself to you. So, what's your name?" asked Zike after feeding a spoonful of milk into the baby tiger's mouth. "I don't know who you belong to, so I don't know your name. How about I call you by name ...."

"I'll think of a name that might be good for you." Zike seemed to think for a while.

Jessey Liu was very curious about the name that Zike was going to pronounce. The man also had to put his hearing sharp.

"Ohhhh!" Zike suddenly exclaimed with a bright face. "What if your name is Tygra! Do you like it?"

Of course baby tigers will not mind at all with any name given by anyone. What about Jessie Liu as her owner?

"Tygra?" Jessey Liu thought that the name was quite unique and good. "Tygra, Tygra .. I think it's pretty good!"

Jesssey Liu was pleased with the name Tygra for her tiger cub. The handsome young man smiled with satisfaction. "Alright, I set that name for her as well."

"Hey! What are you doing here?" whispered someone from behind Ye Kai.

Jessey Liu jumped in shock until she held onto her chest that felt like it was about to explode, as the man's voice accompanied by a pat on her shoulder made the young man flinch. He immediately turned his head and found Ye Kai's face that looked astonished.

"Ye Kaaaaai!" shrieked Jesssey Liu in a voice that also whispered. "Shhhhh!"

"Follow me!" Ye Kai then dragged the arms of Jessey Liu walking away from the window to a distance that perhaps their voices would not be heard by Zike. Strangely enough, Jessey Liu also just complied without protest or rejection. Ye Kai released his hand grip on the arm of Jesssey Liu who was about to ask a lot of questions.

"What are you doing in that pavilion?" ask Ye Kai while holding her back. "Secretly stalking someone like a spy only. Isn't that a bad thing?"

"Speeking at a girl? So that's what a Master Liu did?" Of course Ye Kai felt happy, because there was material to tease his best friend. Ye Kai shook his head. "Ck, tsk, tsk, tsk, tsk."

"Ye Kai, you listen to my explanation first!" Jesssey Liu pointed towards the pavilion building with her hands. "Tygra is there!"

Ye Kai asked, "Tygra?"

"Mk." Jesssey Liu nodded her head. "Tygra. My baby harimau was there with that girl!"

"The animal was there? Does Jesssey already know it's the upcoming Danger Death frontman?" ask Ye Kai inwardly. "Maybe not."

Ye Kai asked as he watched the window. "Is that really so?" 

"Of course it's true. I saw the girl carrying and bringing her inside the pavilion, so I followed her." Jesssey Liu gave an explanation. "Trust me, Ye Kai! I didn't tell a lie!"

"You're not making this up, are you?" asked Ye Kai who still wanted to enjoy the look on Jesssey Liu's nervous face.

"Yeahaaaa! Why would I lie to you?" Jessey Liu started to feel riled up and annoyed. "You see for yourself!" 

Ye Kai actually wanted to laugh so much to see the nervousness and seriousness of Jesssey Liu in convincing him. Of course he knew very well, if this comrade would not do anything less commendable. "alright. I'll ask Tygra for him. Now you come back!"

"But, wouldn't it be better for me to ask him nicely myself? The tiger is mine," said Jessey Liu as he pointed towards the pavilion moving his chin. "Wouldn't it be better if I asked for it? I can even give her high rewards."

"Grabbing for what?" Ye Kai deliberately asked, although he knew of course Jesssey Liu would not hesitate to give a big gift to Zike. 

"The reward is because she has taken care of my baby and also gave a good name and fits her," replied Jesssey Liu without smiling. "Isn't it worth it?" 

"Comebody! I can't let them meet earlier. Otherwise, my surprise will fail." Ye Kai said inwardly. 

"Jessey's. I'm not forbidding you to ask for the tiger. But if you ask for it, not necessarily he will give it to you. He's sometimes very stubborn." Ye Kai deliberately sought an excuse for his comrade to abandon his intention to meet Zike. 

Jessey Liu seems to want to ask for her baby tiger. "I will try to ask him in the most gentle way. I won't surprise him. Believe me, Ye Kai!" 

Ye Kai suddenly exclaimed, "I forbid it!"

"Why?" 

...Seriate...
