The Seed You Threw

The Seed You Threw
Chapter 13


Dev starts looking for Kiran, he goes to the place where he held the concert yesterday. Dev stared at the place already flattened to the ground, only the remains of the building debris scattered. The streets look muddy.


Dev was silent for a moment, he shed tears. This is the place that brought them together, it means that Kiran is not far away from here. However, the place had already been smashed into ashes. Many were victims of the fire.


Dev was flabbergasted, his body feeling limp.


"Kira.....!!" shout Dev.

Kiran and Neha arrive in New Delhi. The house to be visited looks dirty and weeds grow in front of the house. The house looks small so Kiran feels hesitant to come live with them. What's more, the settlement is very dense, the house is attached to each other's houses.


If Kiran lived with Neha, it would be a matter of conversation. Because everyone who was there knew Akram as well as Neha. All they knew was that Neha and her husband had no brothers.


"Neha, is there a contract around here?" ask Kiran.


"For what? You'll stay here with me" Neha said.


"No, Neha. I'll find a place to stay." Kiran seemed to take money out of her pocket, it was a treasure she had. It was his pay wash yesterday afternoon, before the fire broke out. "I think this is enough to pay the contract" Kiran said.


"You're so stubborn, Kiran." Neha knew what the woman was like, if she said no yes still no. "Alright, Akram will help you find a contract, but if you can't go far, if you work you can leave Krish to me."


Kiran understood what Neha meant, the woman was always kind to him. Kiran also strongly believes that Neha can take good care of Krish. Neha's kindness has been very sincere all along.

Thanks to Akram's help, Kiran gets a contract that matches the money she has. Although narrow but the residence is quite neat and clean.


"Thank you, Akram" Kiran said.


"Sama-sama, I'll go home first then" said Akram.


After Akram's departure, Kiran seemed to think. What will he do after this? He also had to find a new job to live out his love.


"Krish." Kiran looked at her son's face wistfully, lamenting the fate so difficult to live. Kiran gave her child breast milk, so she could leave her child to Neha.


The plan, Kiran will find a job. He had absolutely no money, inevitably he had to go find work even though it was late.


After getting ready, Kiran went to Neha's house to leave Krish.


"Neha," call Kiran.


Neha and her husband had just laid her body on the chair. They just finished cleaning their house. Hearing someone calling, Neha came out and saw Kiran.


"I'm here to drop, Krish. I'll be gone for a while, I've given him breast milk. I think he's full." According to him, his son will sleep long enough because it has been equipped.


"Of course, Kiran. I'll take care of Krish."


"Thank you, Neha."


"Stop thanking me, I'm tired of hearing it."


Kiran only smiled faintly, then she diverted Krish from her lap.


"I won't be long" Kiran said.


"Yes, be careful."

Written on the side wall of the road, Kiran read it then she smiled. It's okay even if he only works as a dishwasher, the important thing is that he can work and make money. Kiran went to the place where the location was written.


Kiran went to a restaurant on the side of the road, the place is not too big but quite crowded with visitors. Finally, Kiran came in and immediately got the job.


"You came on time, there's still one more person left. But so the dishwasher was in the back" said one of the staff workers there.


"It's okay, sir. The important thing is that I work" Kiran said.


"If you can tonight it has started work, because the dishwasher is very much. And the payment of wages is up, it can take daily can also be weekly," he said again.


"For now I take it daily" Kiran said.


"All right, you're coming with him." Point that staff at one of the ladies back there. Kiran nodded then withdrew and started to work.

Kiran stretched her muscles, tonight's work was completed at eleven p.m. Because the restaurant was closed at ten. After finishing work, Kiran returned home. But he asked for something from that place. Kiran asked for the remains of rice that was still clean. He separated the food from the plate to be washed.


"For what? It's secondhand food, but it's your business. Whatever," said the head of the kitchen there.


Kiran smiled because she had obtained permission, and she also got a wage tonight.


Kiran came home with the package, she was very hungry. Before he gets home he picks up Krish. Arriving at home she gives her child breast milk because Krish wakes up. After giving Krish asi he started eating with the leftovers.


Her heart was crying, no matter how hard this was the first time she ate leftover food.
