On An Island

Home or Not

Cresen was quite surprised to hear this. Because he never imagined it would happen. Without saying a word the boy left.

"Grandpa can we talk?" ask Cresen through a call.

"Sure," Grandpa replied very briefly.

Cresen immediately headed for the room where his grandfather was.

"Grandfather built this island to bring my parents back to life?" ask Cresen without further ado.

Grandfather sighed then said, "Sit down first."

Cresen followed his grandfather's request. He sat down in the chair next to the old man. The grandfather sighed before he finally answered.

"Yes." Yeah."

"For what?"

"Indeed you never thought of meeting them and we could be a whole family. Are you going to stay on the island with them?"

"Grandfather, the comparison of success is one in billions. I don't want Grandpa to get hurt later. When I realized it was impossible."

"Cresen, as long as we're alive, nothing's impossible."

"But how old is grandpa now. For me even thousands of years of testing, it doesn't work."

"At least grandpa tried," replied the sad grandfather.

Cresen. Finally the room felt empty. Grandpa patted Cresen on the shoulder.

"Stay with grandfather. Let's make a new body for you two. That way you won't have to go back to the island."

"Grandpa ... Me," replied Cresen hesitantly.

"Do you find it very difficult to let go of them? Are they more important than grandfather?"

Cresen did not dare look into his grandfather's eyes. He is unable to answer. It was hard for him to choose the right words.

"alright. I'll help in the lab. But I want to remind you of Grandpa. Because every decision has its own risks."

After the conversation, Cresen returned to his father's room.

"Panthera Leo. look. papa can already stand," said Pantera Tigris.

"It's good news" replied Cresen.

"That means we can go home soon?" asked Corazon who suddenly woke up.

Panthera Tigris nodded. "Let's say good-bye and go home soon," asked Panthera Tigris.

Cresen clenched, his tongue stiffened. Corazon looked excited. And follow the footsteps of his father.

"Hm, but where's your grandfather now? Try using a magic stone to call him." Panthera Tigris points the index finger at the laptop.

"My grandparents are busy, how about we say goodbye after he's not busy" Cresen told a lie.

"Then let's just go, don't say goodbye" Corazon asked.

"It was disrespectful" replied Panthera Tigris.

"But I want to see my mom soon. I miss my mama. How about we send a video message. So later grandfather can see if he is not busy. Even though we didn't meet, we left a message." Corazn is still hoping to get home soon.

But Cresen found it very hard to leave the island. Especially after he promised his grandfather. But he could not say that he had not intended to go home.

"Then what about your school? Do you want to just quit school? You don't want to be a class champion. And show the chalice you got to mama and the islanders?"

Cresen tried to figure out a way to change Corazon's thinking.

"But... I'm going home...." Corazn.

"Of course, he's my new friend at school" Corazon replied to Aji.

"He's a smart student. He will create a new body for us. So that later you and I can have each other's bodies."

"Well! Did ya? Where's that body?" ask Corazon.

"Make body?" ask Panthera Tigris. Cresen replied with a nod.

"His new body is not yet finished" Cresen replied to his sister.

"If not already what? Let's just go home." Corazn pulled his papa's hand.

But Panthera Tigris was interested in what Cresen had just said.

"Wait first. Isn't that a good thing. You can have your own body. You can also do what you like at any time. Without being disturbed."

"But my brother never bothered me at school, eating porridge or playing with a laptop" Corazon said.

"Your brother doesn't bother you. But did you know that your brother was distracted. Moreover, most of the ones using this body are you."

"That's because brother sleeps more than I do. He's more easily exhausted. I am strong and smart. And I love sharing powder with my schoolmates."

"They must be sad. Because tomorrow and so on no one brings powder to them," said Cresen who suddenly got the idea.

"They can bring their own" Corazon replied.

"Yes okay. It seems like Mr. Aves has to resign because his best student, and smart does not continue his school until the end and maybe the school will close soon." Cresen muttered as he stepped outside the Panthera Tigris room.

"How long does it take to finish school?" ask Panthera Tigris.

"Not too long. Roughly enough for three full moons down and up."

Cresen took into account the time he could use to help out in the lab. He actually felt unsure. But if you say the time is longer, worry Corazon will still choose to go home.

"It turns out the time is very short. How about we talk about this to your mama" Panthera Tigris said.

The big man was curious as to what it would be like, if his two sons could have their own bodies. After seeing things that amazed him and felt like he was in a magical world. He was also convinced that the islanders would succeed in creating a new body.

"Mama.. papa wants to talk important things with mama," Corazon said after a video call connected and the faces of the residents dressed in primitive clothes appeared.

"Darling... What do you want to talk about? How are you doing?" oryza Sativa asked her husband.

He misses the three people he loves the most. Although they often meet face to face.

"Corazon how's your school? Why don't you show them you're stronger. They'll be afraid of you, if you lift a very big rock." The islanders spoke.

"Yes, you should have shown that you can catch a big snake by yourself" said the man who had seen Corazon kill a big snake without realizing it.

"Why am I lifting a stone? They lifted their seats because they were being punished. I am a good and smart boy. Where might be punished by my teacher."

"Are you afraid of the babies there? What are they as strong as? There is a penalty for lifting a chair. It should have been a punishment for taking a beloved object" said the islanders arguing with Corazon.

They remember that punishment was given to them as children. And hearing that made Corazon feel very irritated.

"You never went to school. Therefore you do not know the rules" said Corazon impassively.

But the islanders laughed.

"Rules? What rule? Not that the school was playing flour. That kind of thing needs rules too. The baby's basis. They're just weird. Very funny.haha...." The islanders are increasingly upsetting Corazon.

Seeing that, Orysa Sativa immediately took over.

"Honey.don't listen to them" Oryza Sativa told Corazn.

"And what important things do you want to talk to your mom about?"
