That heart wound will never really heal. Indeed, the wound will always be exposed and at any time can be opened at any time without anyone can prevent it.

“Where are we going?” estelle asked as they passed through an area that the girl had never crossed before.
Joyceline turned her head and smiled faintly as she realized Estelle's worries. “Quiet aja.” Estelle nodded stiffly, and kept trying to smile even though her heart was a little unsettled. But as she looked at the direction of the road that was heading towards the outskirts of the city, the girl occasionally looked at Joyceline uneasily.
“This is not far?” After being held back from speaking, Estelle finally asked Joyceline after thinking a few times. Joyceline did not say anything, she just shook her head with a faint smile to calm Estelle down.
They arrive at a simple housing complex that is very quiet, making Estelle feel even more worried about the very unfamiliar environment for her. Joyceline pulled the car over. “Yuk down.” Estelle was silent as she looked at the simple house they were visiting.
Estelle's anxiety disappeared instantly, replaced by a feeling so warm to her heart. The girl smiled as Joyceline introduced her to a middle-aged woman who was the caretaker of the orphanage they were currently staying at. “Then that mother stay first yes,” said the mother of the home was very friendly.
Because Estelle was unfamiliar with young children, she chose to see Joyceline and the children of the playhouse from a not so close distance. It felt like just this time Estelle saw Joyceline laughing after that and Estelle smiled happily to see him.
Estelle's gaze shifted as she felt noticed. It turned out that a little girl in a wheelchair was watching him with a look of admiration. Though hesitating, he approached the little girl. “You're not playing?” ask Estelle gently. The little girl looked surprised, Estelle smiled anxiously at him.
“You saw me from earlier? My body is rich in piercing tofu because it is diliatin segitunya.” Estelle's intentions were only joking but the little girl looked down because feeling guilty had made Estelle feel uncomfortable.
“Abis Big sister really beautiful ...,” great-grandson of the girl who can still be heard Estelle very clearly.
Estelle smiled warmly then crouched down to align her height with the girl. “You are also beautiful,” reply Estelle while scrambling the girl's hair is anxious.
The girl looked at Estelle with sparkling eyes. “Bener, Brother?” Estelle nodded her head in hearing it. But the girl looked down again sadly, making Estelle wonder in her heart.
“Why you?” estelle asked after thinking over and over again to say it.
“My classmate said .. I am ugly and disabled. I was dumped by my parents because I was deformed and ugly.” The girl lowered her head deeply as she said all that.
The deg!
Estelle's chest was like being crushed by a boulder after hearing the confession of the little girl before her. Both of his palms shook as several flashes of memory flashed in his mind.
“They said I couldn't possibly have such a handsome brother because I was rich in pigs ..”
Estelle clasped the girl's hand firmly, hoping to channel her power to the girl through her grasp. “You are beautiful, who said you are rich? Let Brother Lindes he uses car.” Unknowingly Estelle let out a tear as she said that, her voice even trembling slightly.
The little girl smiled faintly, her hands outstretched to wipe away Estelle's tears. “Kak why cry?” asked the girl Estelle replied with a headband, she clasped the girl's hand on her face and kissed her softly.
“You should no longer be horrified or concerned about such rich words. We can't shut their mouths one by one, but at least we can close both our ears.” Estelle put the little girl's palm over her left chest before continuing her words.
“You should be able to protect yourself. Do not get hurt or fail just because their words are not good. Arrachi?” The girl tilted her head confusedly not understanding the last word Estelle said.
Estelle chuckles softly, she also corrects her words, “understand?” With the spirit of the little girl nodded in agreement.
Joyceline who had been watching from afar smiled gently.
Until finally the mother of the parlour told them to come in and have lunch together. “We are in yuk.” The girl nodded, Estelle helped the girl by pushing her wheelchair inside.
“Where?” joyceline asked as they were on their way home.
Estelle smiled thinly. “Seru,” the answer is short.
Joyceline frowned in confusion as she sensed something was different from Estelle. “You good?” Estelle raised both eyebrows upon hearing Joyceline's question.
“Papa coking.” After that, both of them remained silent.

“The rich pig man you mah cannot have a brother like a prince!”
“Again what a lie, ngeribetin aja!”
“Day there!”
Estelle woke up with a breath of breath, even cold sweat soaking all over her body.
Dizzy immediately attacked him as soon as he got out of bed and reflexes he reached whatever was around him and instead made the glass teapot that was on the nightstand fell and broke.
“Ah! His appo,” ogled Estelle when the broken glass hit her legs and hands. He closed his eyes for a moment and tried to calm down.
After the dizziness in her head subsided, Estelle tried to get up on her own and walked slowly to the bathroom. Carefully Estelle took out a few pieces of glass that stuck in her hand.
After that he cleaned his wound by draining water into his wound.
Tok tok!
“Stelle! You gapapa? How much blood?” Axelle continued to knock on the bathroom door impatiently. Estelle, who heard this, rushes to her bathrobe and comes out of the bathroom.
As soon as he saw Estelle, Axelle immediately checked the state of the girl. “Handlo kok can be rich gini?” Without saying anything else, Axelle immediately carried Estelle to her bed.
“Where's the medicine box?”
Estelle pointed at the walk in closet.
After finding the medicine box, Axelle immediately treated Estelle's hands and feet. He also sends Jacob a message about Estelle's situation. Not only that he also cleaned the broken glass on the floor, making sure there were no debris that would add to the wounds on his sister's body.
“Abang is not at home, ‘kan?” ask Estelle.
Axelle nodded. “Yes, he's in the office today. Why indeed?”
Estelle looked down while playing her finger agitatedly. “I'm going to Ryan's father's mansion. Si Anu came by today. I promised him that he would go to the passion mansion yesterday the day after the phone.”
“If you delay until tomorrow what? You-”
“Can. So, can you, huh? Yes yes?” Estelle quickly cuts off Axelle's words and tries to persuade her older brother.
Axelle turned her face away as Estelle put on a face of her mainstay. “Wait for brother to come home, ask him yourself.”
“Lateness. Same Kak Axelle aja deh .. permission yes, Kak?” Again, even Estelle gave a face to weld her second-level flagship in order to get Axelle's permission.
Axelle exhaled a rough breath. “OK, cave follow but.” Estelle was silent for a moment, weighing the sister's offer.
“Where, deal?” Axelle stretched out her hand.
Estelle's lips pursed. “Emang if yourself why?”
“If you want to be alone you have to wait for brother's permission. If you want a cave permitin yes cave must come,” bright Axelle smiled with satisfaction when he saw the expression of annoyed sister.
“Ya already,” resigned the girl. Inevitably Estelle also welcomed Axelle's hand.
“Then, Brother comes out first, I want to wear a shirt.” Estelle encourages Axelle to stay away. And intend to move from the bed to walk in closet. Of course Axelle was against it. The man rolled up Estelle's body with a blanket; it was like a cocoon to keep the girl from going anywhere.
Afterwards he picked up clothes that would have been comfortable for Estelle and threw them at the girl. “Nih, if you have finished changing .. just shout. Don't try to get down from here yourself, just be careful!” Axelle warned her sister firmly.
Estelle herself has been scowling because Axelle is so excessive. Even so, the girl did not protest at all and was obedient to what the elder sister said.
