RED EYES
Eyeball

'Bruk!' That shitty woman closed my bedroom door so rudely. I hope that the weathered door will not be destroyed when it closes the door firmly.

"Stay in bed until all my family comes home!" Shouted Aunt Renata from behind the door. Oops, Mrs Renata I mean.

I never wanted to see Miss Renata's extended family. Without him telling me, I would have locked my room so I wouldn't have seen any of my father's family. I hated them before I knew them, though I still don't know them.

I slammed my body to lie on the hard bed. My long, jet-black hair covered the entire thin pillow under my head, spreading and falling apart. I closed my eyes, trying to sleep even though I wasn't sleepy.

For a moment I thought, should I try to be happy even though my life never made me happy? Should I try to be a good woman, even if I am not a good woman? How long should I pretend to be a patient woman? If so many people think 'Be yourself!", I never feel like myself.

'Bruk!' Again and again. I'm sure my room will collapse if Madame Renata keeps slamming my bedroom door. Rooms built by wood that is always eaten by termites and weathered doors that are always slammed by Mrs Renata may be predictable when the room was destroyed. He should have realized that a room like this was not allowed to slam the door.

"Oh, is there anyone here? Why not eat with us?" Male voice. My eyes were wide open when I heard a man's voice. Wh who?

I also saw a man standing right in front of my door. He stepped up and entered my room. How could this fellow come to the small hut beside Madam Renata's house? Is she one of Miss Renata's families?

"Go!" My love. I closed my eyes again.

"Why not eat with us?" Ask the man again. I'm starting to hate him.

"I'm a maid." I answered her question with my eyes closed.

I lay down and kept my eyes closed. Trying to get the man to leave as soon as he finds out if I want to sleep. Honestly, pretending to sleep. I hope he leaves in front of me soon.

"Come, eat! My family never minded eating together." Bring along. All right, I hate him more and more.

Does your family ever mind eating together? I don't think he knows his own family. Renata always forced me to spend my food in the garden behind his house. Let alone to eat together, he saw me swallow rice in the kitchen alone it was certain that I would be reviled and cursed. If I come to eat with his extended family, I will definitely lose my life.

"I'm not hungry. Go!" My love with a ketus.

"You don't remember me?" The man asked again. If I held a rock as big as a basketball, I would throw it in his face.

"No." My answer doesn't care. I keep my eyes closed.

"really? You'll regret forgetting me." The reply.

I opened both my eyes too. My eyes began to look at the man. I saw his face. He smiled, not only his lips, but his eyes also smiled. Of course I remember.

The man has brownish hair color, I like his hair color. The eyeballs are jet black and the skin is pale. I don't think it's easy to forget the weird guy in my life. I remember that guy.

"Oh, you're a weird guy crying in the supermarket. Let's just say we never met. I'll forget the meeting."

"Go!" Again, this time my tone of voice was rougher.

"You want to come with me?" Ask the man.

I immediately picked up a book that happened to be close to my head. I threw the book at him, I hope it hit his lips.

"My name is Erasmus Nelson. You can call me Erasmus." The man did not leave.

"No matter." My answer. I'd better really get some sleep.

No more voices of that man. My room is starting to quiet. Silent. Good thing, he has gone and left me alone. I hope I can't see that guy again.

I also opened my eyes again. The man was no longer beside me, but he was standing by the window. He smiled when our eyes met. I hate that guy more and more.

"Hey, my place is beautiful." Say again.

"Is that a funeral?" I reply with a shitty face.

"Haha, your jokes are funny too." He laughs at things that are not funny. "You want to come with me?" He brought me again.

"No." Reply with a ketus.

He began to look at the night sky through the window of my room which was covered with thick dust. He started humming, I didn't know what song he was singing. I admit her voice was 'a little' beautiful, not as bad as that of Miss Renata who was only able to snap.

I saw him again. He was still staring at the night sky through my bedroom window. Why are his eyes different? His eyes changed.

I remember he had a jet-black eyeball. Why is the color of her eyeballs turning green? Did I see wrong? Do I have a vision disorder? Could it be that the color of her eyeballs changed due to the dim light of my room light?

"My place is beautiful. A land filled with trees and flowers. What a beautiful lake. There is also a pair of koi fish that are very beautiful, they are able to match someone with the person he loves very much if love is worth it. River with stunning waterfalls, the water is also never dirty like in your neighborhood. There's never any hate there." He started telling me, of course I don't care.

There can't be a place like that. She thinks I believe?

I still see his eyeballs. His eyes are black, not green. The black color on his eyeballs was very clear. Looks like my eyes are having a disturbance.

"There's a lot you don't know. If you stay in this place, you'll never know everything. Stay a slave and never know who you really are. I'm leaving." Erasmus is gone. He should have left from the beginning.
