"Bello. Did Bello run away again?" ask Sariel carefully.
Bello seemed tense, with a forced release of his embrace while staring at the face of Sariel who was waiting for an answer from him. His eyes were moving in an uncertain direction, still depicting fear.
The little man remained silent for a few seconds. He neither nodded nor shook his head, but he showed a frightened face as usual. His eyes looked carefully watching the surroundings. Makes Sariel feel sorry to see it, whether it makes children the age of Bello to get lost to traditional markets that are crowded with visitors. He actually has a few bodyguards.
"alright. Bello did not need to answer. How about we buy some cake at the store there?" point Sariel at the Shop not far from where they are. He wanted to calm Bello down first.
Bello glanced at Sariel's forefinger, his eyes sparkling. He just stared innocently at Sariel who was smiling looking at him. Sariel quickly grabbed Bello and carried him towards the store that looked very crowded. Even the boisterous sounds of people throwing talks at each other sounded simple with laughter.
Sariel stopped her steps as she felt no movement at all from the Bello she was carrying. Bello looked petrified, his hands covering his mouth. Even his eyes were again radiating fear. Staring at Sariel with caution. Even the little guy was wrapped around his neck. Again Sariel is convinced that Bello is indeed very dislike noise and crowds.
"Darling, brother won't take you there. How about we go to the big sister's place!"
Bello did not answer, he was silent. The little guy still looks scared. Even he was only able to bow with a slightly trembling body.
Sariel turned her steps. He moved towards one of the places that seemed to be starting to quiet. It looked like a woman was waiting for him. Staring at the wonder at once full of interest in him.
"Miss, who's this little boy?"
Vienna flinched when it wanted to touch Bello. What an unexpected response Bello, he screamed hysterically while closing his ears and eyes. Sariel who was carrying him looked troubled plus his shrill voice made his ears buzz a little.
"It's okay. Brother is here" Sariel whispered as she calmed Bello down.
"Sister will protect Bello from the people that scared Bello."
Vienna was only able to grimace feeling guilty seeing her master in distress just because of her. But Vienna was pleased to see Sariel who looked familiar to strangers even though she was a child.
"Slightly progress," he murmured slowly as he retreated a few steps back to where he had come from.
"Darling... How about Bello show sister what foods Bello likes the most?"
Sariel tries to distract Bello from his fear. After Bello looks calm, Sariel takes him to sit at his sales place.
The empty basket is neatly arranged and ready to be put in a pickup car. Likewise with Sariel's men, they look busy cleaning up the remains that are still a little scattered.
Bello nodded, he grabbed his bag. Pick up a pen and a little book there. His hand moved making an irregular circle. Placing a lot of dots on it. Sariel smiled at Bello who was good at writing and reading at an early age, even though he could not speak.
"Donate?"
Bello nodded a few times. Makes Sariel feel happy and hugs her at a glance. His hand moved to Vienna to ask the woman to pick up some doughnuts she had brought from home for Bello.
Sariel's hand moved to caress Bello's head and accidentally Dito the Bello guard was standing right in front of them while paying attention to the interaction of both the mother and child. He took a quick breath as he looked tired and worried. The 28-year-old was seen exhaling several times. It seemed that he had enough trouble chasing after the fleeing Bello without his permission. Even finding a child in a crowd of adults is difficult.
"Miss. We'll meet again here."
Sariel raised her head slightly and found that Dito was already walking towards them slowly. He was surprised by Dito's bass. And luckily Sariel didn't jump at all.
"Sorry, our Little Master is again troubling Miss," Dito's eyes moved to notice Sariel's fruit basket which still contained a lot of fruit. The fruit is wrapped in a white plastic bag.
"No. It just so happened that this kid was running and accidentally hit me. So, I helped him first. Besides, we've met before, Lord Guard."
"Call me Dito, Miss," he said with a sweet smile.
Dito's eyes again moved to look at Bello who was still acting spoiled in Sariel's lap. He felt quite surprised to see Bello who was quickly familiar with strangers who had even met twice.
"What happened to her until you lost her again?" Sariel's hand moved to embrace Bello. Sariel saw clearly that Dito was breathing slowly.
"We wanted to take him to the hospital. Once a week Little Master will do therapy. However, he actually escaped as usual, until this place. Once again, forgive us for the Little Master bothering miss," Dito slightly bowed his body.
"It's okay. He doesn't bother me at all" Sariel said. His hand moved back to stroke Bello's black hair and felt smooth.
"Miss. Here's donut!" Vienna comes with small setoples that contain several doughnuts inside with a sprinkling of cereals that vary and form like a rainbow.
"Thank you, Vienna." Sariel greeted the jar and handed it to Bello's tiny hands. He opened the jar. Bello looked excited to see the donut he wanted was in front of his eyes.
"Miss, sorry. Little Master should not eat food. Especially food that is sold in dusty places."
Sariel smiled, he understood Bello's condition which was said to be the son of a rich man.
Sariel moved back towards Bello. He washed Bello's hands cleanly first. Then teach Bello to pray before eating. The little guy looks enthusiastic, he is busy with his world with Sariel and forgets Dito who continues to stare at them endlessly. Likewise with Vienna who participated to pay attention to the interaction of the two. He knew that Sariel really liked children.
"Vienna. Please share the fruit package in the basket. As usual," pointed Sariel towards the basket she had been carrying.
"Ready, Miss," said Vienna as she quickly grabbed the basket and left the three of them.
"Well, now the doughnuts are just a few more seeds. Donutnya we save first . How about now that brother takes Bello to Bello's papa's place?"
Bello immediately shook his head, he did not want to face his father who was quite boring for him. The man always asked her to stay quiet and forbade her to go outside without him. In fact, the man rarely took him for a walk.
"But, Little Master. Young Master will be worried that Little Master has not given any news until now," Dito rebutted quickly.
But Bello just stared at the man in front of them flatly. He looked back at Sariel with sparkling eyes. Making Dito grimace at Bello who was indifferent to him.
Bello's hand moved to open the zipper of his bag and took out some cards that already had words. And show it to Sariel as usual.
"Why-sister?" Sariel began to think. He did not know what Bello wanted just by the word 'brother'. He tried to guess it.
"Sirties know. Bello wants brother to drive Bello, doesn't he?"
Bello shook his head quickly. Sariel thought again.
"Bello wants to be with sister?"
Bello nodded enthusiastically. Sariel's eyes moved looking at Dito who looked a little worried. He knew what the strong-bodied man was thinking.
"But... There is a condition," said Sariel while trying Bello's nose. The little man waited for him to speak again.
"If you want to see your sister often, Bello must according to what you ask. How's it?"
Bello was silent for a moment, the little man began to think, weighing Sariel's request. In the end he nodded in agreement with Sariel's proposal.
"alright. Brother will take Bello to Bello's papa first."
Sariel got up from her seat, her hand grabbed Bello and carried her. But the little man shook his head again at the words coming out of Sariel's mouth. He bowed his head on Sariel's shoulder which was quite difficult to carry Bello whose body looks bigger than the age of most children his age.
"Why not, baby?"
Bello moves to be lowered from Sariel's sling. After Sariel dropped him off, Bello grabbed the contents of his bag. Show a card to Sariel.
"Ka-kak," he sneered back. Sariel crouched in front of Bello.
"Well. Bello should know first. If you want to be with your sister. Then you must ask permission first on Bello's papa to take Bello for a walk. How's it?"
Bello was silent, his eyes occasionally moving towards Dito who looked still worried.
"If not, then Bello's papa won't allow us to meet again. Would Bello have never met his brother again?"
Bello shook his head quickly. He moved to grab Sariel's hand while looking up.
"So, Bello would you like to take her to Bello's papa?"
Bello nodded immediately. He didn't want his father to really not allow them to meet again. She has loved Sariel since she first met.
"Well. Bello's smart. How about we go now?"
Bello nodded back.
Sariel grabbed Bello and wanted to carry him. But the little guy refused it. He grabbed the paper from his bag.
"Ja-lan," spelled Sariel. Bello.
"alright. Let's go!"
Bello's hand moved pulling Sariel's hand. The little man seemed to run first towards the parked car not far from them.
