Grateful Allegiance's

Ch-16a. Nightfall

The small, narrow house with its dim lighting every night arrived, a gray-haired child was fast asleep beside the grandfather of Happer who was now watching himself without blinking a single bit.

Grandpa Happer slowly brought his mouth closer to Mada's ear, then.....

"Hooee! Awake up!!"Shouted Grandpa Happer.

"Waaahhh, who is it!?"Mada shouted and immediately sat on his bed and then unconsciously he directed his punch towards the arrival of the voice he heard earlier, grandfather Happer held Mada's fist that almost touched his face, he gasped but soon a faint smile adorned his face.

"Oh."Mada pulled his hand that was being held by grandfather Happer, they both fell silent and looked at each other.

"Hey, old man...."Mada muttered while bowing his head.

"Hmm?"

Mada lifted his head and stared intently at Grandpa Happer."Can't you let me sleep well, huh!? Is there a problem?! Why did you wake me?!"Bentak Mada's.

'When I was dreaming about mom and dad.'Batin Mada lowered his head back.

Grandpa Happer let out a long sigh and his hand reached for a thick book beside him, then suddenly hit Mada on the head with the book, very strongly.

"Akkhh, Arghh! What are you doing!?"Shouted Mada while stroking his head.'It hurts, I feel like crying, my tears are almost out!'Batin Mada's.

"Hey boy, are you okay?"Grandpa Happer asked suddenly.

"Heh, how could I possibly be okay?! I feel dizzy!"Answer Mada.

"Hmph, get your head."

Mada was silent, he brought his head closer to Grandpa Happer and there was a warmth that suddenly flowed throughout his body, making his head feel somewhat improved.

"It's night, isn't it?"Mada stared out the window that was some distance away from her, the darkness. That's all he can see.

"Cihh, you just startled me. I thought you weren't gonna wake up forever."Grandpa Happer moved from his place and stepped into the chair he sat in every day, Happer's grandfather's favorite chair, according to Mada~

"What do you mean?"

"Huh, do you know how long you've been asleep? You're like ****, how can you sleep for almost 24 hours? It doesn't make sense."Grandpa Happer.

"Well, what date do you think it is?"

"Date? 16 of course."Reply Mada quickly, without thinking long.

Grandpa Happer patted his forehead strongly, he really felt like a fool every time he argued with Mada.

"When we were at the market that day, when I bought you some apples. Do you remember? What time was it?"

"Hmm, maybe about three o'clock in the afternoon or four."

"Now it's eight o'clock, the 17th. I'm giving you a chance to think, find the problem in five seconds!"Grandpa Happer said firmly.

"One...."

"Hmm, wait!"Mada Ucap.

"Two...."

"Wait, it's 17th now? That means...."

"Three...."

"I slept for almost 18 hours?"Mada said in disbelief.

"true."Grandpa Happer replied briefly.

"Wow, that's amazing. Hows it? How could something like this happen?"Mada stroked her stomach which did not feel hungry at all, she was half-dead at this moment.

"I don't know, I've been trying to figure out the answer when you were sleeping, all those books."Grandfather Happer pointed at the several piles of books that were on the right side of Mada.

"It's no use, don't look there anymore."Connect grandpa Happer.

"Whatever, I'm not interested in my body condition either. There's no point in paying attention to my strange body."Mada Ucap.
