My Little Prince's

My Little Prince's
Sweet Potatoes


It's already 10 PM and I'm also getting ready to go to Shinjuku City Town soon. Tonight I wear warm sweet lilac and also wear long jeans. Don't forget I'm wearing my sweet caramel short boots.


Although it is still summer, but the night air will be a little cold. So I put on clothes that warm my body a little. Moreover, the Fireworks Festival this time will be very late at the completion.


Suddenly my phone shook. I grabbed my phone and there was a message from Zen's brother.


📱Yuko. Brother is downstairs. Come down! Zen


Without replying to his message I immediately rushed to get off. Afraid she waited too long. I slightly accelerated my footsteps to get to the bottom immediately.


Right in front of my rented gate I saw a man sitting on his bike. She wore a cream sweater and wore a Tawny Nutt-colored coat.


Realizing my arrival she smiled and waved her hand from a distance. And I immediately walked towards him.


"Hi, Brother .." I said.


"Hi, Yuko." she replied with a special smile from Zen's sister. Warm and friendly smile. "We're leaving now?"


I looked towards the bike and Brother Zen felt a little confused. Then he glanced back as well.


"What's wrong?" asked Zen slightly confused.


"Are we going on a bike, brother?" many ensure. Zen's brother just recovered from a coma. I'm still a little worried if he's riding a motorcycle.


"Hc. Ja. Why, Yuko?" asked Zen, looking at me confused.


"How about we just walk, brother?" bosiku. "Shinjuku City Town is not too far from here."


"You want to walk?" Brother Zen raised one of his eyebrows and looked still a little confused.


"Hhm." I nodded and smiled at him. "How's it?"


"It's not a bad idea. Then let's go!" he said with a big smile.


"Hi ..."


Finally Zen's parked his bike in my rented yard. Then I and Brother Zen walked on foot to go to Shinjuku City Town. The distance is not too far. Especially if we do it at night like this. It won't feel far. Because we can enjoy the view all the way. Colorful lights that decorate buildings and also street lights.


Along the way we were more silent until finally Kak Zen opened the chat again.


"Have you had dinner, Yuko?"


"Already, Brother." I smiled and glanced at him a little. "Self?"


"It's all right."


"Oyes, Brother. Once again I thank you for saving me. And I'm sorry too, brother is in a coma because of that." I said quietly.


Brother Zen slowed down his footsteps then patted my head slowly. Makes me a little down.


"No problem. Don't worry about it anymore .." he said, tilting his face slightly and looking at me with a smile.


After that Zen again stepped his legs again and with a straight forward view. I look at Brother Zen with confidence. She looked very warm and charming as she smiled under the street lights.


A man like this would easily gain a woman's heart. Why did you just waste it all this time? Zen-brother sometimes irritates me a little ...


The trees on the road were covered with a hint of darkness, covered with the light of the stars like falling over a green curtain.


And everyone along the way looked very happy. Will they also be watching the fireworks festival?


Zen and I continued down the street. Usually this road will be a little quiet at this hour. But this time it was crowded. Even many shops and sellers are still selling along the way.


"Did you like holidays?" I break the silence. Because all of a sudden we don't talk to each other anymore.


"Yeap. L like it. Loved it. Especially when there is a celebration or fireworks festival like today." I said while looking around me that looks so crowded by traders and people who are on vacation.


"I always look forward to the holidays. No matter how busy I am." I said again.


"Is that so?" sis Zen smiled and tilted a bit her face at me.


"Hhm .." I nodded and smiled at him.


We keep going down those streets.


As we were walking down that slightly crowded street, I suddenly smelled something in the air. The aroma is so refreshing and somehow ... The smell was so familiar.


I followed the scent and found a stall selling fries.


"Wow .... Sweet potatoes!" I said a little excited. My stomach started to growl a little after I smelled such a mouth-watering scent.


I saw Zen's slightly smiling brother looking at me.


"Wait here!" sis Zen said kindly then he rushed off to the stall. I was sitting on one of the benches on the side of that street.


After a while, Zen came back with a bag of sweet potatoes.


"This ..." Brother Zen stretched out the bag to me. I accepted it with a big smile and immediately picked up some to start eating it. But I immediately pulled my hand back because it was still too hot.


I saw Brother Zen smiling. He divided the potato into two parts and handed it to me.


"Be careful. It was too hot." said Brother Zen with an amused smile.


I gave her half.


"Sister should eat too! You don't eat well either, right?"


Zen brother smiled then started biting the fries.


"Not a little different today ..."


"What's different?"


"More smiles ..."


"Certainly that?"


"Yeap. Even my brother is smiling right now. Big brother didn't laugh out loud, but I could see big brother's eyes ..."


"Silver smiles because of you ..."


The answer made me a little confused.


"Because of me? Do I look funny or like a clown?" I said slowly and a little gloomy.


Suddenly, Zen stopped his activities for a moment. He started looking at me. And now I see clearly those blue eyes. The Okavango Blue Diamond. Even I could see a shadow of myself within those beautiful eyes.


Brother Zen began to gently wipe my lips with his fingers. And somehow this makes my heart beat like a drum.


I immediately turned my eyes. What are you doing, Yuko? Never do anything weird! Tonight your goal to go with Brother Zen is to see the fireworks festival! Remember that!


"Silly girl's. There's something on your lips .." said Brother Zen with a little laugh.


Ahahaha ... It looks like that, huh? I've been so bad to Zen's brother. I'm sorry brother! It felt so embarrassed and wanted to just disappear from before him.


I immediately wiped my lips and hid the shame.
