Mr. Penguin/My Beloved Is Very Special

Chapter 6

Barsha sat at the table, holding her chin and thinking about the words Kelvin said on the way to school that her father felt Kelvin was a little embarrassing for not having hands.

Those words pierced Barsha's heart like a needle. Although he was already used to Kelvin's special appearance and behavior. But do not deny that once Kelvin leaves his usual place like school or home to a public place, he will be one hundred percent the focal point of others.

Is it possible because of this, so Andy's uncle never asked Kelvin to play out?

Kelvin is not afraid to leave the house. He will participate in every activity held by the school. He also went to the library and the same garden Barsha. Just every time there will always be an unknown person who invites their talk with curiosity and sympathy, ask what happened with Kelvin's hand.

Barsha was very upset by the actions of those people. There were even mothers asking to see Kelvin's amputation wound. If Kelvin avoided it, the mother would say 'so much love for this child'.

Barsha even wondered if Kelvin was never upset with those who like to ask questions. He'll answer simply," rolled the same truck as a kid."

"When what age?" People ask again.

"Med 6 years." Answer Kelvin.

Every time Kelvin heard her answer, Barsha's feelings would become upset. He would come up to Kelvin and push his back or pull his empty shirt lightly to take him away, exclaiming, "let's go, we'll be late!"

At that time, Barsha knew she would be upset by the people's questions, because the people's questions would always carry her memory back to that sultry afternoon over and over again. But what happened to Kelvin is something he doesn't want to remember for the rest of his life.

How good would it be if there was a time machine in this world. If something bad happens, people will think, for example, when it is not so, what things will be different.

Barsha, who is only 10 years old, sometimes thinks so. That day, he didn't kick a ball down a big truck, the current Kelvin would be like a normal student. Even he will be superior and remain the proud son of Mr. Andy.

If that day it wasn't Kelvin who got under the truck, what would happen?

In the dry season of 1998, Kelvin was finished from Kindergarten. He was having fun with his day off. Ms. Nina had already helped him prepare his new stationery and school bag for the preparation to go to elementary school.

While Barsha remains a fat little girl who is waiting to enter Kindergarten.

At that time, Mr. Andy had raised the rank of engineer from a technician, and he even got a chance to study abroad for 1 year with 2 colleagues.

After Mr. Andy left the country, Ms. Nina who had to work and also take care of household problems of course became busy. So during the school holidays, she would often leave Kelvin at Barsha's house to be looked after by Barsha's grandparents.

After the chicken thigh fight, the friendship between Barsha and Kelvin became more familiar. Kelvin no longer dared to leave Barsha alone. No matter what his friends play, he will always bring Barsha.

Barsha is fat and easy to get emotional, often angry when he loses a game, his teammates always complain about it, but Kelvin doesn't care.

At that time things like AC have not been said. Barsha still remembered that it was a very hot afternoon, and she and Kelvin fell asleep under a fan. After waking up, they each spent two pieces of watermelon. Then, Kelvin was no longer at home, he went out to take some children to play. It was their daily activities, Barsha's grandparents were not much forbidding either, they just ordered Kelvin to take good care of Barsha.

After they played for a while in their home environment, Kelvin ordered to move the battlefield.6 young children immediately ran towards the metal factory field not far from their housing.

They were on average the children of factory employees, almost every day they played there, so the security guard there was also not much to prohibit them from playing in the factory area, he said, because nothing has happened so far.

When the kids were playing hide-and-seek again, there came a 7-year-old boy named Farid showing off his new football" You see this, a new ball, you know, bought my papa because I'm yesterday's birthday!"

"Wow, good yeah." Exclaim one of the children, "It must be expensive huh?"

"Of course it's expensive." Farid replied with a snob.

"Let's play a yuk kick." Children's Advice to Farid.

"It's..." Farid was hesitant, "Okay, just don't make my new ball dirty."

So they immediately distributed themselves into two teams and made a simple wicket using bricks in the factory.

Their football game continues with excitement. Only in the game lagak Barsha who dazed and less agile because fat often laughed by his friends. The last time Barsha intended to kick the ball into the goal, a kick did not hit the ball, instead making himself fall because of losing balance. The children who witnessed his ridiculous actions immediately burst into laughter.

Maybe his butt hurts from a fall coupled with the ridicule of his friends, Barsha gets angry. After he stood up he immediately kicked the ball in the other direction loudly while shouting with emotion," Ugly ball, playing males, I want to go home!"

The other kids on again watch the ball being kicked away by Barsha rolling into the bottom of a big truck again ready to transport metal materials.

Farid saw his beloved ball stuck under the truck that might be broken rolled by a big wheel, he immediately rose in blood and shouted towards Barsha," Fatty!! You're such a bitch! If my balls are broken, I'll beat you up! Hurry you there get the ball, hurry!!"

Perhaps due to Farid's fearsome reprimand, Barsha cried, "No, no, no, I'm afraid of the truck."

"It's your fault, you have to take responsibility." Farid doesn't care about Barsha's stalk.

Kelvin, who could not bear to see Barsha being scolded continuously, advanced himself and said, "Let me help take the ball."

After saying, Kelvin immediately ran towards the truck. The truck looks bigger and taller than its 6 year old body. Farid's ball got stuck deep enough under the truck. Kelvin has tried to extend his foot but his range remains far from the ball.

'So there's a new stick that can grab the ball', thought Kelvin. After he looked around, he did not find the thing he wanted.

After thinking for a while, the other children were also on the approach to the truck.

Farid saw Kelvin had tried several times but still could not get the ball out of the bottom of the truck, starting to be impatient,"Before the road truck, speed you go down there take the ball! Watch out for you when my ball explodes!"

"Let's go, let's go...!" The other kids screamed.

"That's it." Kelvin tried to ventured because of the insistence of other children. He lowered his posture outboard on the ground, by creeping him sneaking down the truck.

Finally getting the ball, Kelvin smiled and ready to pull himself out from under the giant object on it. But then he wanted to creep forward with two hands, disaster happened! Suddenly the truck moved forward, and Kelvin was too late to pull out his pair of hands. The painful cries of children roared in the vast field of the factory.

"Stop..pan...stop..." Listening to the cries of other children, Kelvin slowly lost consciousness due to illness.
