On An Island

Relented

"The pet, the animal that was kept, fed," Corazn replied.

"What...! We have to feed the animals we're going to eat?"

"No, we can't eat it. We can only feed him to death."

The islanders frowned their eyebrows in confusion.

"Why feed him to death? While we can't eat it. If you want to kill an animal, just beat it to death. No need to be fed."

Corazn patted Cresen's lidad.

"Not so, if you keep pets you have to feed them," replied Cresen with red eyes upset.

"You mean like feeding them their food? Eh... wait .. So if I want to keep the snake, I have to give my baby to eat the snake?! Ah. This is not true. It's a bad thing." The men remembered that snakes could eat humans.

"Who said you should give your baby to eat snakes?"

"It's not you yourself who said we should feed the pet. And the snake is man-eating" said the islanders annoyed.

"Who said that? The pet eats carrots, not humans" Corazn said. He saw one of Cresen's pet friends give carrots to their beloved rabbit.

"Snakes don't eat Panthera Leo carrots.... Who taught you that?"

"He," Corazon answered pointing at Cresen's nose. With the sense that he knew it through the memory of Cresen.

"I think the son of the Chief was dazed because he had been swallowed by a snake. You'd better take her home, "let the islanders go to Cresen's nanny.

Finally Cresen was put in the basket. But Corazon held Cresen's body and requested that his pet snake go into the basket.

"For what? The snake cannot be fed. The ular is dead. Let them take it home to bake it later" replied the Cresen nanny.

"So he's dead? I already have a good name for him" Corazn said sadly.

"And why do you call them snakes? Not worms?" ask Corazn. And the question was not answered by anyone.

Cresen's nanny immediately put in the Chieftain's son before he chatted at length. Then bring the boy home with the islanders. Upon arriving at the village, people told him what had happened to Cresen.

"What's? My son killed a snake.... alone?!" ask Panthera Tigris in doubt. The people who saw earlier nodded then convinced the husband of the Chief.

"It's amazing.he's better than you!" the babies compared Cresen to the oldest of them.

"That's impossible, Panthera Leo is afraid of animals. Even he was afraid of my Ox," said the oldest baby.

There was a debate on the island. They don't believe the story of the people who saw Cresen kill the snake.

"If you don't believe me, when hunting tomorrow, take the boy along."

"No, my son is a baby. Her skin is as soft as cotton. He'll be hurt." The Chief refused the request.

Then they enjoyed the roasted snake meat. Unlike Corazon, since he wanted a pet, he was no longer willing to eat meat. And Cresen himself has not been conscious since he saw the snake in the forest.

The next day arrived. Corazn is determined to get a pet today. So when he finished eating, he immediately left the house. The Chief was astonished to see Cresen so excited.

"Where are you going?" ask Oryza Sativa. Today he did not go anywhere. And have plenty of time at home.

Cresen who now has red eyes tells of his intention to have a pet. And the Chief initially objected. But then he agreed. On condition that his son's pet is harmless.

And he gave a child a goldfish to the child in a jug. Corazon, who first saw the animal, was very happy. But then he was confused. He did not see the mouth of the animal. Nor did he see the eyes, hands and feet of the animal.

"Mama, I want a pet that has eyes" said Cresen with red eyes. Oryza Sativa gave him a baby fish.

"Mama I want the one with the legs.

Mama I want one that has fur like my shirt.

Mama I want something like this....

Mama I want that...." And finally various baby animals were placed in the house of the Chief.

"Now choose one. And let go of the others" suggested Oryza Sativa.

"No, I'll take care of everything" Corazon argued through Cresen's lips. The Chief patted his jaw.

"Have left it, the important thing is that he is silent first. Later when he is off guard. Put the animals back in their place. Babies get bored quickly. He'll let them go."

Panthera Tigris advises his wife. Because the woman wanted to return the baby animals to the forest. Their house is full of new residents. But their guesses are wrong. Corazn did not want to let go of the animals. Eventually, they had to evacuate the animals.

"Corazon, they just stay here huh. This place will be their home" said Oryza Sativa. Fortunately the red-eyed Cresen agreed.

As the sun sinks and stars begin to appear, Oryza Sativa asks Panthera Tigris to untie the animal. When Corazon was sleeping in Cresen's body. Because all day spent feeding his pets all day.

After sleeping long enough Cresen finally regained consciousness and took control. He glanced left and right. He breathed a sigh of relief because he was between his parents. Corazon does not like to sleep alone.

The next day they both woke up at the same time. Cresen's left eye is blue and his right eye is red. And that certainly leaves both confused. Especially when eating. The right hand holds the apple and the left hand holds the water guava. They both tried to eat the fruit at the same time.

Of course Cresen had to give in and wait for his turn after the child was full of eating the fruit he liked. And when it was Cresen's turn to eat, his stomach was no longer receiving food. Because it's full.

In addition to eating, they also have problems when walking. They realize it when they arrive at the river and Oryza Sativa takes Cresen out of the basket. The left and right legs move together when they want to masum river so they topple over. And become the laughing stock of the one who sees them.

The two souls quarreled and blamed each other. Oryza Sativa could only sigh. And chose to carry them both into the water.

Problems are increasing. Corazn wanted to dive while collecting the white stone. But Cresen wants to finish the shower soon. Because he did not want to linger among the naked women who were bathing. He also dislikes having to take off his clothes in public. But Corazon prefers bathing without clothes.

"Mama...why do I have to share my body with my sister? Other babies have their own hands and feet and their own eyes and mouths. They can do whatever they want."

Hearing that Oryza Sativa felt a pain in his chest. And Cresen finally chose to withdraw. Let go of his will, then let Corazon take complete control of the body.
