Not the Riding Prince
Fat Guy



Geck! poke! poke!


I was shocked when the door knocked. I immediately shed tears and walked towards the door. I saw someone standing there.


A person with a stature that is not high enough, a distended stomach, wearing glasses framed in gold. His hair is partly gray, maybe his age is long enough in this world, visible from the wrinkles that exist in some parts of his face.


"Are you new here?" his voice sounded heavy but very cold to hear.


"Yes, sir." I replied with my head down. The man came in and sat in the chair in the middle of the room.


"What do you want me to do? tea, coffee or something?"


"Make me green tea without sugar."


"Good, sir. Please wait a minute."


I turned on the stove and boiled the water, took the tea and put it in the cup.


"Why not just use an electric stove?"


"I think the water feels strange. It's good to use a regular stove, sir."


"True, I agree too. I don't even like rice cooked with magic com. I prefer rice cooked the way people used to."


I just answered 'oh' and nodded ria.


"This, Sir. The tea is ready."


"thank you. Sit down."


"No, I'll just stand up."


"It's okay. Sit down here. I won't bite."


With a little hesitation, I sat down. Even if you can only steal a look. It feels very unethical to sit with such a high ranking official.


"Who's your name?" ask after sipping Tea.


"Winning, Sir. Just call me Kinan."


"Oh, yeah, yeah. Kinanti, how old are you?"


"Emm? I'm 27 years old, next month, sir."


"Yes, yeah. Still very young. In the past, when my wife was your age, she was very energetic. His life was always filled with laughter. Not like you are now. Crying in the kitchen. Wh why? does anything make you sad?"


"Ah, that? no, Sir. I'm fine."


"What's that fierce President angry at?" tanyakanya. His eyes were like trying to investigate with a hint of temptation there. "He was very angry. Though he was young, I can't imagine how he was wrinkled before his time."


"Ha ha." I just laughed. Not just in a short time. I laughed until tears came out and my stomach hurt. Not just me, but us. We both laughed.


"You're right, sir. Is it possible that if he is old at his current age, can he get a partner? is there a woman who wants to be with him?" ask me in the laughter.


"There's."


I opened my eyes wide, curious.


"Grandma."


Wkwkwk. We laughed again. On the sidelines of the boisterous sounds that filled the runway, we chatted to and fro. I don't know, I'm so easy to tell all my life stories. From how I was small, parents divorced, fathers who started to like gambling and drunk, then I was in the gang of debt collectors.


"If I had known you well before, I would have helped you pay off your father's debt."


"thank you. But I am also confused. Because until now they're not looking for me anymore. Are they afraid of Doctor Evan's threat?"


"Doctor Evan's in this office clinic?"


"Yes, I was sent home with him at the time. And it just so happens that the thugs are back. They fought and fell. Doctor Evan threatens them by mentioning the surname of Doctor Evan. Hmmm maybe Doctor Evan's family is very influential. Or maybe, a family of thugs too?"


"Cannot be. Evan's a good boy, his family's fine."


"Sir know?"


"Hm. I know."


"Oh, out Doctor Evan is as rich as he is. The house I now own is also huge. There is a dome that can open on it. I can see stars when the weather is clear."


I feel comfortable with this Father, just keep babbling. What I've been through, I'm telling you all.


"Sir? Father why?" I was astonished to see this person dumbstruck. I waved my hand in front of his face.


"Ah, that. Its alright. I just remembered there was something I had to do. We can talk tomorrow."


"Yes, Sir. I understand."


"Tomorrow, can you bring me some manual cooked rice?"


"certain. Of course, Sir. I'll bring rice to you tomorrow. Oh, yes Sir. If I may know, is there any food you're abstaining from?"


"There's."


"Can I know?"


"Eats mostly. Hahaha." the fat man came out with a laugh that I could still with even though his steps were far away.


God, thank you for giving me good people. Although ... have it! The president is an exception.
