Distance One Jengkal

The hour hand shows 20:20. Papi looked at the mother who had been wracked with drowsiness. In the end, Papi invites mami to rest first.

“Ariel, you don't want to sleep now?” ask Tiara. He and Kharel also wanted to quickly rest their bodies after a long journey.

“No, Mommy. I still want to talk to Uncle Dion and Aunt Belle.” The boy still leaned back, uninterested in Tiara's invitation.

“Leave it, Ma'am. Later if Ariel falls asleep I will carry her to the room.”

“Good.” Tiara looked at Dion and Lily alternately. “Then we also went into the room. Good night.”

“Night.”

Those left behind remained silent for a moment. Then Ariel opened the conversation first.

“Oh Yes, Uncle. I'd like to ask?” ariel hesitated a little. The boy squinted his eyes at Lily. Like there was something different about this woman he saw. Seen like that, Lily was only able to reply with a smile.

“Yes, you want to ask what?” Still with his favorite scrambling Ariel's hair. Ariel grumbled but Dion laughed.

With doubt the little boy also voiced what was the question, “is Aunt Belle the wife of Uncle?”

Dion gasped as well as Lily. Their eyes meet each other. “Of course. Who will be Uncle's wife besides Aunt Lily. Did you see any other women here? This you base.” This time Dion pulled Ariel's nose until the boy grimaced.

“Sickness, Uncle,” his scolding by shaking Dion's hand and rubbing his reddish nose. Lily was silent, asking inwardly why Ariel could ask that.

“I'm just confused, Uncle.”

“What makes you confused? Come, say!” insist Dion. He wondered why his nephew was asking this question.

“Mm, but Uncle answered honestly, yes,” pinta Ariel with a earnest face.

Dion slightly chuckled with Ariel's serious face. “Unfortunately Uncle once lied to you?”

Lily was impatient with what Ariel wanted to say. His heart instantly thumped as Ariel's gaze pointed at him again. What he digested from that look, Ariel's question must have been about him.

“Begini, Uncle.” Take a deep breath. “Former Uncle, will ever show a photo of Uncle's girlfriend to me, even introduce her to me.”

“Yes, that was it. Why?” Dion can't yet guess where Ariel's talking is going. Lily's heart ached a little hearing that. But he tried to act ordinary by playing his phone. Although his hands pretend to be busy, but believe me he has prepared his ears really to listen to the continuation of Ariel's speech.

“Didn't Uncle ever say, if Uncle's girlfriend named Clara is going to be Uncle's wife?”

“Ariel, what are you talking about?” Dion tried to stop Ariel. Feeling the situation was no longer good let alone his sight meeting with Lily. The girl was inflamed from not liking to hear the name Clara.

“That was the one Uncle told me. If you are not married to Aunt Clara, then you will not want to marry anyone. But to–”

Dion quickly smothered Ariel's mouth. Didn't expect Ariel to reveal what she buried deep. Ariel, that innocent boy has already created a war between himself and Lily. Though he has been struggling enough to make a closer relationship since the escape of the girl first.

Ariel struggled to be released. Dion placed his index finger on his lips, as a signal to keep Ariel quiet.

“Oh, yes, Ariel. Aunt just remembered that Aunt has schoolwork.” Stand up and keep showing a sweet attitude. “You guys just talk about it. Aunt up first, yeah. Good night.” Lily's gone.

......

Lily was in the room. He took the bag he used to campus earlier. Remove all contents, scissors, newspapers, and various types of color paper and so on. Put it all on the table in the room.

The elder sister asked me to make a fake hair out of those ingredients to wear tomorrow. When Papa drove her home, they stopped by the store to buy it all. Lily began to cut the papers thinly.

The door opened, Lily turned. Surprised because Dion was catching up so soon. He returned to his job, though he was not focused. He really wanted to disappear from that man's sight.

“What do you do?”

Quiescent.

“Why not answer?”

“I'm cutting paper.”

“What makes cutting paper that thin?”

“No tiers telling,” answered flatly without looking up at a single bit.

Dion did not say anymore. The man circled the sofa Lily occupied then sat by her side. His hand grabbed the papers on the table and gathered them in hand and then moved again.

“Where are you taking the paper? I have to finish it.” immediately Attempting to seize. But the man was too quick.

“Just wait five minutes. Stay here.” Move to go outside the room.

“Don't waste that paper! I have to make a fake hair.”

“Wait here. I'll help you out faster.” Door closing.

“What will it do with those papers?” Ask yourself with great anxiety. Lily moves on and wants to catch up with Dion. But when it was on the lips of the door Dion was not seen anymore. I don't know where the man took the papers.

A few minutes later Dion returned with a box containing pieces of paper that had been cut into pieces. He put it on the table where Lily was sitting.

Lily did not say a word even though she was amazed that the papers had turned into small pieces, thanking her not. And thankfully, the piece of paper was already bumpy. Dion seems to know what Lily wants. I was actually wondering how Dion could turn it into this. But Lily chose silence.

He took a piece of tape, spread it out on the table, put a double tip on the tape and began to stick the edges of the paper pieces. Dion watched closely.

“Can I help?”

“No need.”

Although Dion's hands are forbidden to move following what Lily did. Know his little wife is crashing. The girl did not rebel.

And finally the pieces of paper were all stuck. Just tie the end of the ribbon on a bucket hat. It doesn't take long to work on that until the wig is completely finished. More precisely Lily made a tassel in the hat.

“Where to?” Dion pulls Lily's hand. The man knew that his wife would avoid him again.

“Mau to–, aaa!”

Be late. Before Lily finished her words, Dion pulled Lily's waist and sat on her lap.

When Lily saw the person who had been presumptuous pulling her body, the girl blushed. Their faces were this close, just a inch away. They could even feel the air they were breathing felt warm. You could say they exchanged breaths. Dion's current gaze looked shady and deep, able to reconcile the girl's heart. For a moment Lily was washed away.

Lily nodded and turned her face. Willing to move but Dion held back by locking Lily's body using both hands.

“Detach, Mas.”

“No.”

Lily tried to get out of this situation. But what power, the girl's energy was just a fingernail to Dion.

And finally the moment that awaited arrived.I hope you do not forget to leave a trail like. Especially if you want to vote, how happy my heart.^
