HIDDEN STEP

CHAPTER 28

Name Card

***

Andrian went back to his desk, there was already some food filling the table, it was the food that Andrian ordered.

In front of him, the boy placed his folded hands on the table. Very nice as a kid in school.

"Oh, the food's ready, why don't you eat?" Andrian asked, taking some nutritious food and sliding it in front of the boy.

The boy smiled until his eyes narrowed. If he is told to stop smiling, the child will not. Wh why? Because most of the happiness he really felt was when he was with Andrian.

Again why? The boy was happy. That's for sure, as a human being, no one is ever happy. Like for example when the child can deposit more, like when the child plays, he is happy.

But it's not that kind of happiness the boy meant. Say, that the child is greedy never feels happy enough that he has. That's right, who's the one who's never been greedy in this world?

Even when you say you're not greedy, there are times when you do it unintentionally. That's absolute. Absolute nature that is certain to humans.

Together with Andrian, the happiness he felt was different from the happiness that was bad in the end.

When he plays, he is happy. But it could have had a bad impact on his other life. Just imagine, how he deposits money if he only plays?

Not that easy, the happiness he ever got will impact to something worse than he got rather than happy itself.

Never mind, after all you will not understand what the child is trying to say.

"I'm waiting for you" he answered Andrian's question a moment ago. Andrian smiled back. They started eating it, rather Andrian just sipped his drink looking at the boy who was eating voraciously.

His eyes peeked into the boy's body, no wounds. It was just on his leg and it was also a small wound, there was nothing for Andrian to worry about.

"By the way..." The sentence that Andrian almost heard came to a halt because of the doubt that Andrian could see from his eyes that were staring around.

"Yes?" Andrian. He just wanted to lure the boy into saying what he wanted or what he was thinking.

The boy rolled his eyes, not the kind of rolling your eyes when you were lazy, more so when you were gerogi with something you were about to say. That's what I think the kid is thinking.

"Em, I don't know your name yet," As the boy said, an explosion of laughter adorned the table of the two of them. Andrian laughed in his release. Why is this kid so funny.

At seven years old, what are you doing? If you are just playing and listening to fairy tales carefully, then you should be ashamed of this child.

How could such a child act like an adult? Looking for money, talking straightforwardly without stuttering, or not talking what they see throughout their lives (noisy and chatty).

More! The boy was more than a kid his age. It contrasts so much with its cute and pretty look.

"You don't know my name yet?" Ask Andrian groped. The boy nodded. Andrian put down the spoon he was holding.

"My name is Andrian." Her speech.

The boy smiled, playing his finger at the spoon and fork he was holding. Then raised his eyebrows while still paying attention to Andrian's face.

"Hm, huh,?" Andrian joined his eyebrows did not understand. Is the boy still confused as to what call he gave Andrian?

As Andrian said something, it collided with the boy who said something as well.

"You can call me uncle" / "You didn't ask me what my name is?"

"I-yes uncle." The boy looks embarrassed. His finger day surrounded his non-itchy nose. Sometimes I look at Andrian. Why should just talk like that be ashamed? Thought Andrian.

"So what's your name?" Andrian asked. The boy raised his face to Andrian.

"My name?" Ask. Of course the boy was happy. No one asked her name all this time. What's the point of knowing him? He's just a street kid. So no one really analyzes it or asks such a thing.

Other than his friend who called him a name, everyone he had met only called him a brat or a street kid.

Just a name, very trivial. But it can warm the child's heart. So in spirit he introduced his name.

"My name is Nayla" he said. Andrian could see his eyes sparkling at that moment. What was? Thought Andrian. That is, what is it until the child happily explodes like that?

"Uncle." Remember Andrian.

"My name is Nayla uncle." Repeat the boy.

Okay, so let's change the word 'The boy' to 'Nayla'.

Nayla was still smiling broadly until her gums were seen from Andrian's place. You knew? Laughter is contagious. Andrian was smiling.

Anyone who looks at it would agree that it was a happy moment. Andrian who smiled sincerely and Nayla who laughed happily.

They eat quietly. No one made a sound, just a few peeks and smiles at each other.

Andrian had never faced a child before. But faced with Nayla, Oops sorry, it seems Nayla is not a type of child because of her mature behavior. Haha kidding.

Andrian was so happy to finally get along with the little boy. He used to think. He probably won't have children given how much he hates children. But now he can get along with Nayla and Denis.

Speaking of Denis. Andrian could not be fully familiar with it. If it will certainly not be able to release Denis just like that to get familiar with him. Agh! Andrian did not like Bila very much. But he likes his gentle kiss. Eh?

After eating they sit down to relax to warn of a full stomach. Just Nayla, Andrian doesn't eat much, he's not really hungry.

Nayla has had enough rest. So he wanted to go home because he had been out with Andrian for a long time. He got off a slightly large chair for her. Stand up and step towards Andrian.

"Wanna go home?" Ask Andrian. Nayla nodded. "All right, let me deliver." Andrian answered, but Nayla shook her head. "No uncle, just take me to a regular red light, I'll go home with my friend.

Andrian sneered, "It's okay, let me take you." Andrian.

Nayla shook her head again, "No, I'm going home with my friend." Reply firmly. Andrian sighed and nodded. "okay."

At the request of the boy Andrian dropped the child off at the parking lot, near the red light that the child mentioned.

Nayla thanked him and opened the car door.

"Thank you uncle." He said with a three-finger smile. Andrian nodded, without answering.

After Andrian left, Nayla took something out of her pocket. He saw an object like that when he saw a car grazing a motorbike. At that time the driver of the car was very rushed so he gave a card like the one Nayla was holding. He said, contact the driver of the car with the card given.

Nayla can't read, but she knows numbers. Yes, he always deals with money even if it is only a few thousand, so he definitely knows the numbers. There's a number there. That must be Andrian's phone number.

Nayla kept the thing so that one day she needed to, she could contact Andrian easily.
