TIN...TIN...!
The sound of the horn continued to fill the crowd from that morning hour. Because today is a holiday, so many vehicles pass by to go, whether it's going shopping, vacationing with family, or just going to find friends.
Seeing a row of cars that had no stop passing, Ashera's facial expression clearly looked sad, because he had seen that jacket he was looking for, he said, now it is on the highway and the jacket continues to be crushed by passing vehicles.
His heart so raged, he immediately cry under the tree while looking at the jacket run over by the vehicle tire.
"Goddessa..!" Unable to hold back the cry from just now restrained, finally Ashera shouted with a cry that immediately broke at that moment.
How bad was it when the last clothes of his late father, even continued to be crushed by vehicles?
All of that really made his heart sliced, making Ashera back into the worst memory when ten years ago, his father died in an accident.

Flashback.
Under the overcast sky, a man with his wide smile was crouching while facing the little girl.
"Ashera just wait here, yes, then Mom will also come out. And I'm gonna buy you the cotton candy that Ashera wanted from earlier, right?"
"Yes." Yeah." With a plain face and chuby cheeks, Ashera nodded in understanding, so Ashera sat under a tree to wait for her father to return to his place.
Seeing his son so obediently, this man rubbed the tip of Ashera's head with a friendly face and a gentle smile that felt spring.
"Dad,"
"Hmm? Does anyone want Ashera to leave it to Dad?"
Ashera was silent for a moment, then stood up again while reaching for his Father's face, before Ashera landed a wet kiss on his cheek.
"Be careful." Ashera said as his last words.
"Yes, I'll be careful." This man replied, without fading his sincere smile. "Don't go, yeah."
"Yes." Yeah." Answer Ashera briefly.
Then after that, his father Ashera crossed the street, approaching a shop that sells cotton candy.
It looks like cotton candy that is bought there are two, and the color is also beautiful like a rainbow color, especially coupled with the shape that is quite interesting to his attention, making Ashera more happy, making Ashera more happy, that the cotton candy will soon be his.
And it did not take long, his father Ashera also crossed the road again casually, because the traffic lights happened to be red, and pedestrians could cross.
But when his father Ashera crossed the street, right on the sidewalk there was a middle-aged man descending into the crossing zone without looking to the right and left, he said, whereas in the corner on the left it is a bend that is intended for vehicles that want to turn immediately.
And result....
TIN....!
The horn that sounded so long it immediately startled Ashera.
BRAKK.....
"D-Dad...!" Shouted Ashera. He who was surprised by his father who was suddenly hit, immediately ran with a cry that had been replaced with a loud enough scream.
Ashera ran over to her father, and cried with tears on her face.
"Dad! Daddy's! Wake Dad!" Shred this girl while hugging her father's head that was already bleeding heavily.
"A-Ashera," Even as the cries continued to strike within Ashera, that faint but gentle smile still adorned her lips. "I'm sorry Dad."
"Dad! Don't smile like that, don't scare Ashera." Ashera said, his small hand rubbed the eye patch of the father who was exposed to red blood.
"Ashera, look after Mom for A-yah huh?"
"Dad! Don't close dad's eyes! Daddy's! Ahhhhhhh..!" And finally the request from Ashera to make his father's eyes not close, did not at all grant, in a sense, one such good person, he said, who continues to fill his days in a way that is not quite ordinary but makes Ashera impressed, now it is no longer there.
And the cotton candy that was bought by his father, has gone carried away by the wind, until it continues to be carried to the middle of the road at the crossroads at the end of there, until the cotton candy like a flower, directly oppressed to blend with the asphalt road.

Off Flashback.
"Huwaahh! Why is it like this?! Of the many things that can be crushed, why the jacket?! Why?!" Strangled Ashera with a sobbing tone.
Not strong enough to see the jacket continue on the floor, Ashera immediately sat limp on the sidewalk.
His intention was to go halfway to pick up the jacket. But every time the jacket was on lindas, as seen, Ashera was like seeing his father there with blood soaking the streets.
"Hiks...hiks. Why did I suddenly remember that incident again? Why?" Ashera Mumbled.
Until his unrelenting cry, he managed to invite one person who had suddenly walked towards him, and the footsteps stopped right in front of Ashera, until finally Ashera who felt no more rain water hit his body, making Ashera look up.
"It."
Because her eyes were filled with tears that could not stop, Ashera also had a little trouble with her blurry vision. Until Ashera wiped her tears that pooled in her eyes with one ca.
"Brawn?" Call Ashera spontaneously, when he sees the face of the person who approached him with a jacket that had been in the middle of the road.
