...CHAPTER 14.5 - CRYSTAL FLAM'S FIRST IMPRESSION ...
...◇◇◇...
My name is Crystal Flam.
My father worked as a traveling salesman and I was always with him.
Because, I only have a father and my mother's been gone since I was born. All I do is follow Dad everywhere.
Then, Today I will settle in a village near the Bloody Forest called Konora Village.
"I'm going, Flam. Take care of the house" he said, closing the door.
"Good.." Saying pout.
Dad went to work early in the morning, once we were home. In the end I'm here alone, I want to come along..
The house is still not in order, let alone the room of Dad and I. So it is not like the usual house.
"All right, get it done!"
Because now all I can do is clean up, so I immediately start by arranging my room first which is then my father's room.
.........
"Fuh~ Done too.." I sat down on the chair and leaned against the dining table.
"..."
I stared at the basket in front of me.
"..All right, I guess I'll visit the next-door neighbor," I said grabbing the basket.
Well, because I'm done tidying up the room. I'd better say hello to the neighbors first.
"Yoh!"
So I decided to go to my neighbor's house.
"..."
I looked nervously in front of the house.
It looks like the yard of the house is planted with beautiful flowers and looks well planted. Then, not far from there were cattle cages on the right side of the house.
The house was bright blue with a brown roof. Looks similar to my home, the only difference is how the house was handled a long time ago.
"Ughs.. Maybe, maybe tomorrow?"
I was nervous, but now I've been through the yard and on the doorstep of his house.
"Huff.. Haa.. Alright."
Fear not! I just say hello to the neighbors!
Right, it's not strange to just visit and say hello!
Yep! Knock on the door, yeah!
"..."
Still, I was more nervous than before I left.
Do I have to bring money? Well, I heard there's a neighbor like that..
Maybe just in case..
Creaak~
"Uh..?"
The door was opened and a young woman was seen in front of me.
"Huh-Hello.."
"Ara, is there a sweet girl?"
"Hello, Auntie. I'm a new neighbor. My name is Crystal Flam," I said as decently as possible.
All righty! It's starting!
So I prepared my pedagogue mentality to answer what the aunt said.
Then, he began to introduce himself to the man behind him.
Eh? I don't know why I've seen it like before..
Where is it?
"Fufu, Aunt Rima Maulana and this child, Ren Maulana," said the Aunt.
His expression seemed disturbed as he was pulled in front of me.
"Hello.."
He greeted me back, so I smiled at him
'But his name is Ren.. Maulana, huh? Hm.hm..'
Even though I tried to remember her name, I don't remember ever meeting her.
Uhh..
Maybe, if I knew him more..
Yosh! I'm sure I can remember..
Then, because I brought a basket. I gave it to Aunt Rima.
It seems like Auntie liked it, as I was thinking about returning home. Aunt asked me to come in, because Auntie was being nice to me.
'I think it's okay, yeah.. It's really okay!'
So I went in and sat down on the long sofa in the living room.
"..."
Aunt asked Ren to sit next to me, I had absolutely no idea what to respond to. Do I have to offer you something? but what should I offer??
Yosh! All righty!
I will make him realize my appeal!
"Pulse.. Ren-kun's."
"Ah, i-yes. What's up, Crystal?"
Ren-kun looked nervous.
"You can call me Flam if you want" I said softly.
Awaaah! I let him call me Dad! B-But, I think it's okay, yeah it's okay!
"Good.. Flam."
"Yes." Yeah."
I smiled hearing it. Well, I'll be friends with him. That's what I think of when I see it.
It looks weird, but I'm interested in him.
Why yes?
I guess I'll talk to him longer, yeah..
So I asked him to talk, even if it was random or not worth talking about. I get excited every time I talk to him.
It's delightful.
