Honestly, Sylvia could not hide her happiness within
her heart. Today was a beautiful dream in my sleep. He's conscious, Noel and
he was one of many street children with both hands
he was able to get his parents' hands back. And it makes
the whole longing in Sylvia's heart decays. He no longer needed to mutter inside
heart, a little hope to meet his mother. Because now, it
she could see her mother's sweet smile directly, with both eyes
own head.
“You don't want to come in, Syl?” ask Edwin
holding Noel's hand.
Sylvia shook her head, “Gue wants to be outside,” whispered slowly.
“Lho, why?”
The girl swallowed her saliva. For a moment he glanced in the direction
three other people joined them. There's no way that he's blurry
it's obvious that he'll go out to smoke a cigarette in front of his mother, isn't it?
Sylvia slowly moved her finger as if it was the middle
make a gas match.
“Oh!” Edwin understood immediately. “There is near parking...”
Before his mother, Noel, or any of them had time
opening her mouth to ask a question, Sylvia quickly turned around and
stepping away.
***
Luckily, Sylvia found one of the three rooms
especially for smoking that he can still occupy. A pair of brown lenses
the four youths inside the room instantly turned to Sylvia.
The girl did not care about the gazes of the group at all
the young man on the bench next to him. They have never seen an opponent
what if they pass a cigarette between their lips? If not, then,
they suck. It is common to be a street child. Smoking
being one of the prefixes to respect. It doesn't matter if it's a man or
a woman like herself.
Shortly after the four men extinguished the cigarette butts
they and left, Sylvia the arrival of an unexpected guest.
A tall man with brown hair and eyes stood up
right in front of him. Although his face really resembled Edwin's, there were no curves
the slightest smile on his lips. I think that's enough for
uncovering the implied message that he is not such a friendly and smiling person
her sister's. Plus, with her firm eyes. It must be easy for
the young man was to put out a hostile rant to the ears
the listener. But, if it is, why Noel could have had time
smiling, even holding Dean's hand for a short time? As
sister, Sylvia knows her sister better than anyone else. Noel is a coward!
In other words, the child cannot be familiar with a rude or assertive person.
Even if that person is his own brother. Yep! Noel tends to duck
and try to be quiet even though both hands tremble when talking to
Sylvians. Though Sylvia still set aside a little kindness for the child.
It's possible, this young man's behavior is still better than their former ‘bos’.
No, the man can be compared to anyone who is still in love
people around. He's demon! No man likes him, except his neighbor
the devil!
Without a brief greeting, Dean bent his legs and sat down
in the corner of the room. His eyes moved to look at Sylvia.
“Noel's brother, hm?” he said it as if they were
the two already know each other.
Sylvia nodded slightly. With a few drops of sweat
around his face, he picked up his lit cigarette from between the flames
both lips. The cigarette should be extinguished immediately. Edwin told me once
she told him that everyone in her family hated smokers, especially her father.
Dean just chuckled slowly watching Sylvia's behavior.
“Edwin tell you that his family does not like cigarettes, yes?” that young man
folded hand. “Well, it’s a big no
for me's. I used to smoke. In fact, I also had a drink. But, uh,
stop in semester four, anyway.”
Her ear
didn't hear wrong, did you?
Sylvia never expected that one of the two
these brothers kept a pretty wild nature. In fact, Dean was seen
like a person who is firm, rigid, and obedient to the rules. Different from his sister
having a personality is reflected clearly in his behavior and face. Hundred
percent! By the time their eyes first met, Sylvia could already judge
that Edwin was naive, sincere, and... That young man
just like her brother! By letting Noel stay in his house without
father's permission. Edwin himself also broke the rules even though the way impressed
it's subtle!
“You used to be with the same gang Noel?”
“Iya,” answered briefly while nodding his head.
“How many people are there?”
“Six.”
“Still remember your boss's name?”
“Bang Gondrong's. But
it's just a nickname, don't know whose real name is..”.
Sylvia held up her sitting position. I don't know why, it
it feels like getting into a police interrogation room like in a movie
which at first glance is seen by his pair of eyes on a tube screen television.
I haven't had the girl to ask you a question back yet, Dean
looks a little nodding his head and says, “So gini..” he.
clearing slowly, “...Your mother asked me to help her fight your ‘former bos’. Yep, yeah,
so we also need to work together. You just need to help provide information. Effusive
right?”
The girl nodded slowly.
“Still love to chat with gang friends, hm?”
“Still. But they have fled from their place
Longish. Now they live in Eji's house, Denis's driver
angkot it. Yeah.., not a gang one thing anyway. There are children from the group
other also.”
“Memorized the address?”
“Ya, memorize.”
“OK, good.” Dean pulled his phone out of his pocket, “Any second here.”

“Tumben you take me for a walk. Means... It’s not even Saturday night yet,” Charlotte said
tuck some of her hair behind her ears.
“I
know,”Dean pull the brakes
hand then turn off his car engine, “Ya... It doesn't taste good that way
go alone doang...” murmured slowly.
It didn't take long after the door was knocked, girl
the little boy of about five years old opened the door to welcome the arrival
them.
“Who, yes?” the tan is plain while hugging the cushion of the cushion with a few patches of cover
torn parts.
“Ih, Lala! It's the same as bang Eji, don't
open the door carelessly!” protesting a boy behind her.
A pair of glances his eyes moved straight looking at Dean, “Eh? The Sylvia
that time, huh?”
“Edwin? No, this is her brother.”
Ryan nodded his head, “Again looking for Sylvia? Him
met his parents. Keep on, he just stopped by here with Noel, right
Saturday-Sunday aja.”
Again the young man replied ‘not’.
“We're looking for a bang Eji. She's at home?”
“Siang-day gini bang Eji still narik.”
“Kalo whose name Denis exist?”
Ryan shook his head, “Bang Denis is also coming with him. So then
both are not at home.” The child smiled faintly as he opened the door
wider again, “Abang wait aja, just a moment again also at the back.”
