Re - Growth of Life

Public Holidays (2)

Fifteen minutes? Not enough to eat all the meat. Only half as well.

Abel quietly stepped up from behind Tetam, and Hap! Abel picked up the pork on the Tetam plate and ran away nimbly.

The bullied tetam from earlier was already unable to bear, he turned Abel's shadow into long hands, then the shadow quickly tied the body that was bothering him.

“Kena too! Abel!” Tetam snorted in annoyance, immediately picked up the pork that had fallen off the ground, burned it back and then he ate.

Abel smiled, turning the hands of the shadow into water, and the shadow of Abel returned to its original state. Then get closer to Tetam.

Tetam knows what happens next growling like a threatening cat, not wanting to be disturbed.

Abel and I laughed. I almost spilled my flesh onto the ground.

“Nak, the meat is still a lot. Don't bother your sister, she's been waiting for this boar hunting event.” The meat you ate on the plate ran out, then stood up, turning the hog roll back so as not to cool down.

In the midst of those who were fighting, Abel stopped his movement to outwit Tetam, immediately turning to me who looked listless eating meat.

“Why you? The meat is not good?” Abel approached, cut the little pork, then put it on a plate, then sat down next to me.

I shook my head, “Not.”

“Keep why?” Abel asked with his mouth still full of crispy pork meat and skin.

I lowered my head, heaved a heavy sigh, “Nnothing, just. When my parents were alive, once every three months, Papa always brought a pig to burn tonight. And my sister always waits once every three months.” I began to eat the pork again, although it was not as tasty as before.

Tetam who was still greedily eating meat while standing up, immediately approached to hear our conversation.

Abel stared at my face for a moment, then turned to look at the rolling pig still on the fireplace, then held my shoulder. “You miss your sister, Adrian?” Abel looked concerned.

I didn't answer, just nodded while picking up the drinking glass.

The drops stood before me, blocking my view from the fireplace. “If you miss your sister so much, you eat!” He grinned, stuffing a lot of meat from his plate into my mouth, until my mouth was full of meat and pork rind.

Abel who was surprised, immediately stood glaring at Tetam. “What the fuck are you Tetam?! He's sad again! Instead of being entertained, even in meat chopsticks!”

The drops continued to stuff the meat into my mouth, even though my mouth was already full of meat. “Haha, I was just helping to raise his mood. So that he does not continue to be sad to think about his sister.”

“After all, the family will never be apart no matter how far you go. He'll definitely come back. Just trust. After all, surely you will meet your sister again really, someday.” Tetam gripped his waist, grinning widely.

I nodded, smiling thinly. Then continue to eat the meat on my plate until it runs out.

The sun soon rose from the east, ready to water the trees in the morning. The air that was previously cold, slowly became slightly warmed.

Then at the same time, the bolster pigs we ate had been exhausted, leaving only bones.

Father and Mother also immediately returned to their previous forms. I, Abel, and Tetam cleaned the remains of the fireplace. Pack up and get ready to go home.

...----------------...

When I got home, I went straight to my room and immediately broke down my body, then unconsciously I was asleep.

Abel helped put the groceries at the market on the table, after which he walked to the room, wondering why I was running so fast when he got home.

Abel, who saw me sleeping, grabbed a blanket and covered half my body with it. Then she went to the kitchen to help Mom and Dad.

Three hours passed without feeling. I got up from the blanket that warmed me, and went to the kitchen to wash my face.

In the hose I washed my face, Abel, Father, and Mother deftly do their respective duties.

Abel nimble weaving rattan-rotan in the basket. Dad to the backyard is planting something to sell later at a slightly more quality price. And Mother, don't ask again. Mother always deftly clean the fruits, vegetables, and organs in the chicken that must be disposed of before cooking it on the pot.

I stretched for a while, then went to help Abel weave the rattan until it was over.

Fifteen minutes passed spent just weaving rattan. Unlike before, the order this time was a bit small. That's why we don't do as much as yesterday.

After finishing weaving rattan, we paid to play outside just like Tetam.

I've only been here a few days confused, who will I play with? Ben's? Karl and Kerl? In the meantime I don't know where their house is. But Abel invited me to play at his friend's house, considering that I've only been here for a day or two, I agreed.

Ten minutes of travel, finally arrived. The house is simple, a little bigger than our actual house. But with some furniture decoration makes this house look like beautiful and unsightly.

Abel took off his neck and started knocking on the door. After a few taps, someone opened a slight gap in the door of the house.

“Eh... What's going on Abel coming here?” Ask the person with a friendly smile.

Abel smiled back, slightly scratched his neck that did not itch, “Thomi there is Bu?”

Who her? Mom Thomi?

Ibu Thomi also opened the door wide, then stepped up while calling the name “Thomi” many times and said “There are friends who come”.

Abel and I immediately entered the house and sat down on a rolled-up mat made of colorful straws with floral patterns.

Thomi came to the living room while rubbing her gnashing eyes, “Oh, Abel. What was? Tumben come here, usually you come every day just Sunday.”

“It's sunday, Thomi.” Abel patted his forehead. Maybe the inner one says this: Well, I can forget that today is Sunday.

Thomi grinned, then sat down next to Abel. “Abel, who is he? Your new friend?”

Abel looked at me for a moment, then looked back at Thomi, “Not, he's my brother. Coincidentally her parents sent her to my house.”

Thomi nodded her head while still rubbing her eyes, “Oh.. means more and more people dong in your home. Like a shelter.”

Abel nodded at a glance, “Today you spare Thom?”

Thomi nodded, “Iya, why?”

Abel grinned widely, like there was evil intent inside. But just before he spoke his question, Thomi had already conquered it.

“You want us to practice today? You say that every week. He's coming too. I can't wait to bring out my new technique.” Thomi smiled broadly as she punched her two fists in the opposite direction.
