HALF MY SOUL
MATCHMAKING



"Crazy now" said Kristy.


"Who's talking to you again?" ask Lady.


"Let's not look at their behavior" pointed at William and Viera who now dare to indulge in intimate affection in front of the crowd.


"Crazy, they dare to******* so old ampe?"


"Eat him."


Kimberly who saw it immediately turned her face, "Kris, dy, I to the bus first huh. I want to find materials to make the paper Mr. Dodo."


"Aren't we eating, Kim?" ask Lady.


"I'm still full anyway. You ate together with Kristy. I'm going to the perpus first. I'll be there when you're done eating" Kimberly turned around and left the cafeteria.


The sight he saw was painful. Although he had tried to forget William, but still his heart could not be invited to work together.


Kimberly ran towards one of the corners of the rather distant bookshelf, which was rarely reached by the students there. He crouched down while holding his bag and book. A little sobbing started to come out.


"It's been 3 years since you didn't care about me, why does it feel like it's still this sick?" Kimberly held onto her chest, crying, but she kept trying to keep her voice from coming out.


A touch he felt on his cheek, so warm. Kimberly raised her head to see who was in front of her.


"Sister ...," without a second thought, Kimberly immediately embraced and shed her feelings that were currently so painful.


Anthony hugged her back, even clenching his hands, "Why do you always make Kimberly cry, just because she loves you," Anthony said.


"Kim, come. I'll take you home."


Kimberly finally got up and followed Anthony. In the car, in the car,


"Sister, I don't want to go home. Later Mami squirms my face like this," Kimberly was still a little bit of a whimper.


"You want some ice cream, hmm?" as Kimberly's countenance changed, she smiled even though her eyes were still swollen.


In an ice cream shop,


"When will I come home?"


"2 days ago" replied Anthony.


"I don't think you'll ever come back here again" Kimberly said.


"I can't possibly not go back" Anthony said.


"Sorry Kim, I have to help Daddy out there first."


"Why didn't you meet me?"


Anthony smiled, "I went to see my best friend first. I have something to talk about."


"Sister Hansel? or Brother Hanna?" ask Kimberly to know.


"I mean brother? Hanna's sister's missing?"


Anthony nodded, "I only found out 1 month ago that Mama Hanna had died 2 years ago."


"2 years ago?" kimberly's memory returns to the last time she met Hanna.


"Yes, after that, Hansel and I never heard from him again. Hansel had been looking for his house, but it was empty, and he had also just asked Hanna's neighbor that it was for sale."


"Sad brother?" ask Kimberly.


"I'm fine. I was just worried about it, "there was a bit of a bitter tone in Anthony's words, Kimberly could feel it too.


Kimberly held Anthony's hand and held it, "Sister, I will definitely help big brother to look for Brother Hanna."


"Thank you, Kim. But right now you have to focus on finishing your college first. Let's have Hanna, me and Hansel think about it."


Kimberly began feeding herself with ice cream that began to melt. He looked at Anthony's face which was radiating worry.

"Kim," call Alan.


"Yes, Pi," Kimberly replied.


"Come here. There's something Papi needs to talk to you about."


"What's up, Pi? Looks like Papi wants to say something important."


"Grandfather will come here."


"Grandfather? Grandpa is coming? Isn't it usually Mami and Papi who visit grandfather?"


"Yes, but this time grandfather's arrival was different. He wants to match you to his best friend's granddaughter."


"What's? The matchmaking? No Pi, Kim won't. Kim is still in college, Pi. After all, Kim wants to determine his own life partner Kimberly" Kimberly refused.


"But, baby. Grandpa did this because of the last request from his best friend's wife who had promised with grandma" said Alan.


"But this is Kim's life, Pi. Kim does not want Kim's future to be determined by others. After all, Kim still wants to finish college and a career. Even Kim still wants to continue to S2."


"Sorry Pi, Kim went to the room first," Kimberly recently opposed her parents' wishes.


He went into the room and laid himself on his bed. Kimberly picked up her phone and pressed a few digital buttons there, contacting someone.


"Why is it always not lifted? Where are you really, brother?" kimberly grumbled as she threw her phone on the bed.


He closed his eyes and finally fell asleep.
