Don't Consider Us Weak

Fifty-seven: About Joseph

   Black sky full of stars adorn the night sky and there is a full moon there makes the sky look so beautiful. Some of Lidya's friends prepared the utensils and took out the groceries they brought from the house.

  A smile expands from the girl's lips as she can stroke the head of this half-cat cub, named Keno. "Well, you're funny. I want to be a cat." said Lidya chuckled in reply kekehan Keno make her cute face more cute especially if the two ears of the cat he moved.

"Sister, want to be a cat?I can be a cat completely but if there's any sign of danger. That's what Brother Yusuf said."keno said, making Lidya's little naughtiness stop when the name was mentioned, Yusuf. He remembered why he could live in this orphanage he thought, Joseph lived in the house in fact he did not.

"Hmm," he muttered to see Keno asking for an explanation about Yusuf living in this orphanage before he never said he lived here. Almost all of his friends were also shocked because Joseph never told a story at all.

"Ken. I'd like to ask you a question?"

Keno nodded, "of course I can. No one is nagging" said Keno, wagging his cat's tail.

"Why does Yusuf live in an orphanage?"tanya Lidya made Keno look at the girl next to him was astonished and confused. His forehead creased and looked up at the night sky waiting for the new year to arrive.

"Non't you ever tell the same story, Brother Yusuf?"Lidya shook her head as her answer, "no."he replied shriveling.

Keno sighed heavily, "Sister Joseph felt lonely and as he returned home. He was always ignored not knowing the reason why his family ignored Brother Yusuf like some of his friends and Brother Yusuf said. He once liked a girl to get close to his family but the girl even made Kak Yusuf disappointed." keno explained pausing.

"He continues to feel lonely and lonely. Then he used to come here often to take our play, the children of the orphanage. With pleasure Aunt Maya told Kak Yusuf to stay or often play around here every afternoon. A few days later Brother Yusuf decided to stay here for a while later he decided again to stay here with us."continue making Keno's face sad. He knew the feelings of Joseph and the children of the orphanage also felt that way.

Lidya who was too smart for information Joseph asked back to Keno. "Sorry Ken, brother has asked like that considering your parents as well. I'm not sorry again."

Keno turned to look at the girl's face with a smile of her cute, "it's okay, sister. I am glad I shared my story with my sister. Every day when the children go to the house before going to bed, they all always tell about their parents first. There are those that are baby-delivered like Saturn and Uranus. They're twins who are now like me, fox-human and Rabbit-human."Keno looks back to see that the fox and the rabbit are twins who now play with Nando and Arka.

"Where is Saturn and where is Uranus?"ask Lidya.

"If Saturn were a rabbit, Uranus was a fox" Keno replied. Lidya smiled, "they are both so cute. Haha."

"Oh yeah, besides the Saturnian parlors, Uranus, Caca and you have powers. Are others like that too?"the tananya is fast-tracked.

"No, only the four of us who suddenly have the strength of the other do not. I was surprised that I suddenly had both cat ears and my real ears were missing. The three of us, Saturn and Uranus, change side by side as night falls. We didn't want to go out of the parlour room and start locking ourselves in. At midnight we decided to leave the room for food. For the sake of not wanting them all to know that the three of us turned into half-human animals."Keno recalled the initial incident when it turned out to be like this.

A sound of footing rang out and a hand patted Lidya's shoulder made a surprise, "Aaa!"his screams were met with a small laugh from the person who shocked Lidya, the girl turned to find the laughing Pandu holding her stomach. Lidya pursed her lips and hit Pandu's leg.

"Eits, Scout the bad guy!"lidya. Pandu just laughed and sneered that his punch was very weak, of course, making Lidya even more upset. He turned his face away from Pandu. The young man stopped laughing and tried to persuade Lidya not to sulk.

"Dih, crashing. Don't sulk. Yes, I'm wrong-sorry yes." said Pandu apologized with a smile but Lidya ignored the words sorry from Pandu he was still upset. Pandu bit his lower lip and started sitting next to Lidya. Keno saw the long-haired and handsome young man ask.

"Sister? Is this brother close to this sister?"tanya Keno pointed at Lidya of course Lidya widened both her eyes hearing the question coming out of Keno's mouth.

"Haha, not too close." replied Pandu made a sigh of relief from Lidya. Keno ber'O' ria, "oh kirain. Sis, I say yes to play with Saturn and Uranus first."pamit Keno smiled and went to the twins who were still playing with the two young men who looked familiar.

Lidya looked at Keno's back away from her and turned towards Pandu. "Would you come here?'the tanya turned cynical.

"Don't be fierce, mbaknya. He said to me with my car earlier, I came here to show you something in my car." said Pandu explained briefly his goal approached Lidya. With a heavy heart he nodded slowly and followed Pandu towards the car park.

  In the front yard a lot of cars that have been conjured into campsites and carpets have been arranged so neatly. Blue powder came and transformed into a young man who owned an open house event that had not appeared before.

The blue-jacketed youth greeted Lidya, "Hai Lidya!"the girl greeted back,"Hai Yu-,"he said pausing to see a different appearance from Yusuf. "Where have you been? I was looking for you and I ended up playing with the orphanage children while helping a little bit more." said Lidya a little bit nagging Yusuf.

  The young man chuckled, "sorry. I was too busy picking up my friend's stuff as much as a big truck. I'm sure if you knew my luggage that much you'd faint. Lidya." she chuckled.

He smiled, "honestly. Than to make people kepo?"

"Your appearance is different from Suf and your hair is not black but blonde" said Lidya honestly if he noticed what he said was right.

Joseph's appearance changed by a few percent from before. His black hair is now turned into blonde and the jacket he wore earlier is gray like a jacket that time on the bus, the beginning of the meeting he and Lidya. Now it turns light blue.

"Eh you're right. Why am I sober now?"joseph said he realized that his appearance had changed. He looked at both of his palms, "it's possible that I used too much of my magic today" he said thinking that he was using too much magic today.

  He had never experienced anything like this before. Lidya smiled, "I like this new look of yours?"he said he was trying to make his friend not confused.

Yusuf, who was watching his new appearance in confusion, stopped. Staring at Lidya's face with both red cheeks, "really?"his tanyanya ensured a steady nod from Lidya.

"really. Yes, I'm leaving first huh."his camel passed Joseph who was still nailing.

In his heart screamed loudly, What really happened? Why did I feel something was different when I met Lidya. He quickly accelerated his steps towards the parlour.

  The young man was already waiting for Lidya who was cool to chat with Yusuf. The girl immediately asked Pandu what she wanted to show from her car.

Pandu smiled slantedly, "have you finished talking to Yusuf?"he said a little chuckle quietly that Lidya could still hear.

"Udah. Which one do you want to show me?"ask Lidya curious.

Finally Pandu showed what he wanted to show Lidya. He opened the trunk door of his car and the back seat of the car he had folded neatly. The young man took out a remote from his pants pocket and pressed one of the buttons.

Pandu tells Lidya to back off giving her car a little space. The sound of the car was the body of the car behind. Lidya stood nailing seeing the car slightly elongated and there was a folding bed.

Smile expands on Pandu's lips, "my car is suitable for camping." said Pandu saw Lidya sweetdrop.

"Wow, that's just incredible. How did you modify your car?"tanyanya walked over to the car.

"Help from Arkan" he replied.

"Huh? Arkan?"lidya said back. Of course, he was surprised to hear Arkan's name. The young man was so smart he could not only make robots and ingredients like food and beauty products but could become a mechanic.

"IQ he is very high so smart" said Pandu.   

Lidya was silent and what Pandu said was true. arkan's IQ is as high as that of a professor. Elsewhere Arkan is showing his chemical results with some of his new friends and here too there is Shena who is curious about many things, Arkan.

"I'm going to make firecrackers from chemical products" he said mixing some liquid into a bottle of chemical in front of him. The liquid turned red and was successfully greeted by applause. He looked towards Shena.

"Shen help me put a firecracker into the container followed by the others." Arkan looked at Shena for a moment and then faced his new student.

In the back row, he looked cynical and full of hatred.
