My Little Girlfriend

27. The Starting Point of Fire Orphanage of Love

17 Years ago, at the Love Orphanage.

The children were finishing their dinner and were about to head to their rooms to sleep. It was time to show at 8 p.m. Previously they cleaned their eating places and washed their hands dirty because of food. All seemed independent without complaining. Happiness was on their faces.

Laughter accompanied every step of the orphanage children towards their rooms.

"Be careful, don't run around like that. It'll fall, ouch." Said Ms. Maria seeing the behavior of the children of the orphanage who were very active.

"Mom, we're going to bed. Thanks for the food." Said a child approaching Miss Maria.

"Yes, clever. Go straight into the room, don't go anywhere else." Reply Miss Maria gently patted the top of her head and gave a little warning to the child named Kinan.

"Ready." He saluted her respectfully, then ran over to his friends.

"Based on the children, told not to run really hard." Exclaims Miss Maria sighs at the behavior of her children. But his expression was smiling looking at them, there was a happiness in itself staring at their plain window.

"Lho, is Lia still here?" Mother Mary said she saw a child named Lia, left behind from the ranks of her friends.

"It.it.. " The boy said a little.

"Here you go, let's go into the room. Your friends are already there, tuh," Pinta bu Maria and got a small nod from Lia.

Lia walked slowly towards the room while continuing to look down.

"When the kid can be more confident huh. Ah, never mind, I'll be able to if it opens his heart." Murmured ma'am Maria saw Lia's rather shy figure.

...

Fidelia, or commonly called Lia is a shy child. Unlike other cheerful children, he includes children who do not talk much and hang out with others to always be alone.

He suddenly returned to the kitchen as soon as he saw Mary who had left. She hesitantly sneaked in and tried to find something.

He seemed happy as soon as he got what he wanted, immediately went and headed somewhere. Then try to light a candle as soon as he arrives. Clenched his hands together and tried to make hope in front of the candles he lit.

"May I have a family." He said later and making a wish in front of the burning candles, he stood for a long time in front of the candles.

He rose from there, allowing some of the candles he lit to continue burning. After the hope he asked for had been spoken, Lia immediately went from the place to return to the kitchen, to return the match he borrowed earlier. After that he immediately left there and went back into his room.

...

Although he had gone there and many times did so, but on that day it seemed to be a bad day for the 8-year-old girl. The candle that he was staying in was lit suddenly burned the contents of his hiding place, because he accidentally fell. The place he used to be alone and also the place of expression was now devoured by fire. The building, which is rather fragile because it is old and not well maintained, is made of wood, and is located not far from the back of the orphanage.

Making that night a mess and a frantic field among the orphanage's residents. Fidelia, who was the origin of the fire, suddenly panicked in fear, so that she moved away from the crowd and fled because she was so afraid. However, in his escape he almost died because he passed by a car that passed in front of him. Luckily, he was not hurt and ended up fine.

......................

"All I heard, all the orphanage children survived. Actually there was a fire, but from the results of the investigation, the fire only occurred from the back of the orphanage, for some reason it could burn the entire orphanage. About the missing child, not found until now, if not the wrong name Lia."

Bian did not expect it to be this complicated, even though before it was only because of his curiosity with the figure of Kinan, and just wanted to know if he was the child he knew first.

"Ok, thanks. For now, this is first. You can go, I'll call you back if I need anything." Said Bian later.

"Okay, I'm sorry." Reply Dimas and farewell from in front of Bian.

Although it had been flipping through the contents of the report given by Dimas, Bian did not expect to get a complicated situation.

"More complicated than I thought it turned out." Mumbled. "I just want to know his true identity, and want to return my promise to him first."

Bian let out a long sigh as if in disbelief after hearing the situation. Coincidentally this is the 3rd day he came to Jogja, but in addition to struggling with hotel problems, he also became investigating about his childhood friend first because of the name and figure of Kinan.

"Focus Bian, put that aside first." He said to himself, to focus on his initial goal of coming here.

...

In his petite cost, Kinan took a break from the dense activity he had in the hotel. He silently looked in front of the mirror, looking back at his face that did not look okay.

Although trying to forget everything by busying himself, but the bad memories never disappeared also from his mind.

He tried to grab something from the top of his desk, looked at his lost diary and tried to write something there. Looks like he'll be talking about his bad day at the hotel.

"Ah. I want to take a walk." He then decided to go out and breathe fresh air at night.

"Well, I haven't been traveling like this for a long time. Freshly..." Said Kinan feeling relaxed.

He walked from his boarding place to a park. The park is filled with young people who are enjoying their romantic time. Kinan looked at the envy of those who looked relaxed and filled with joy.

"I'm envious.." His murmur was sitting on a grass with a stand in the middle of a courting person.

"Girl, be alone." Said a man approaching Kinan who was sitting alone.

Kinan turned to the source of the voice, and found the person standing next to him and looking at him.

"Mas Bayu." Said Kinan surprised by Bayu's presence, then rose from his seat. "Kok mas Bayu can be here anyway?" Ask Kinan again.

"You yourself why are you here? if I was, yeah, just take a walk." Reply Bayu.

"Sama dong, I'm also going for a walk."

Kinan was finally able to chat with someone he knew and did not feel isolated anymore in the midst of dating people. His decision to come out seemed like a really good thing.
