ELLA AND MICHAEL
Depends on Your Picture!
The director just smiled and, uh,
“Depending on the result of your description, Marco.”
“AAAAAAA.
Marco was excited and happy, then left the director and Michael.
“Kak! Where are you going?”
Michael followed Marco who walked away from there.
It seemed, Marco wanted to prepare all the equipment that would be used to paint on the walls of the hospital.
***
That night, Marco was looking for something in his room.
Marco took out a small box that was padlocked.
Marco took the key out of his pocket to open the lock that locked the box.
*TALK
“Let's see.” says Marco alone.
Inside the box contained a sheet of money that was not how much.
The box was probably Marco's savings that he had saved.
When he opened the box, Michael suddenly appeared and approached Marco.
“Gosh. You have a lot of money, Brother.”
Michael chatted and sat with his brother on the floor.
When Michael approached Marco, Marco immediately hid the box in the back of his body.
“Try view. I want to see how many.”
“No. No. gabe. No. gabe. Can't do. Before my target is reached, I can't show you.”
Michael breathed and,
“Hhh. I'm your sister, Brother.”
“For people with autism, the family is like a stranger nearby. Nearest strangers.”
Marco still did not want to tell the contents of the box.
“Then, what is your target?” ask Michael.
“Thirty thousand dollars.”
“What's that money for, brother? Are you sure?”
“To buy a car.”
“Mobil?” ask Michael who did not expect.
“Yes. Car.”
“Mobil.”
“Is that also a secret I cannot know?”
“Common.”
Marco refused to answer and turned his face away from Michael.
“Good. I won't ask again.”
Michael stood up and rushed to rest.
Marco reopened the box and took out a piece of poster paper.
“This.”
Marco reached out his hand, giving the poster paper to Michael, without looking at him.
Michael took the paper Marco gave him, and opened it.
The poster paper contained a promotion about Van camp car for thirty thousand dollars.
“Give you great memories and a romantic lifestyle. Going anywhere feels like home. Van, camper car.”
“Special price thirty thousand dollars. Massive discounts. Very cheap.”
Marco even memorized all the writing on the poster.
“Why do you want this, Brother?”
“Eeee. If. If we buy that, we don't have to move every year.”
“When the butterfly appears, we can directly run away using it.”
“We do not need to pack and move places of residence. You also do not need to hear the nagging from the owner of the house. We can go anywhere. Van. Car camp.”
“Kak!”
“It's still a lot less. I have to find money.”
Michael who was standing immediately sat down and hugged Marco from behind.
Michael was deeply moved by Marco's words.
“Kak. I don't need a house, a car, or money. I just need you. I meandly mean. You're everything to me.”
“Searching for money is very difficult. Real hard. It's so hard even. It hard. There are many more that I have to get.” said Marco who was hugged Michael.
***
The next day, Michael left for work with Jane.
Jane accidentally gave Michael a ride in his car, because he had the same shift that morning.
Michael was sitting next to Jane driving.
In Jane's car, Michael was looking at his cell phone, and looking around for a camper van, which had a cheaper price, than the posture Marco gave.
