Second Eye

Yumna House

"You're a hard-working kid, huh. So ashamed that I always rely on my father and mother" I praised Yumna who was unlocking the door of her house.

"Ah, it's normal. I'm not that good, because everything I do is because of the forcing circumstances. As long as the work is good and does not harm people, yes walkin. Come inside!"

The door of the house is open. The cold instantly burst forth. A foul breath also had time to squeeze the fur on the nape of the back of my neck.

"WOIIII..... Why blow-blown my neck?" my bully immediately turned around, which was my walking position at the very back.

"Aaaaarggghhhh." cried a woman in white, jumping back so shocked by the look in my eyes.

"Ih, Susi used to make people shocked, now want to digerjain even shocked herself. How the hell?" yumna made us all laugh.

"This kid can see me too? Not exciting! Yes already, I just came out ahead again," he replied annoyed because it did not manage to make me shudder in horror, like other guests who had been flushed by his snub.

"I'm sorry. If you have made a hanger," my candlestick makes it more sewot only.

"Does he still have a heart?" rey asked flatly without a smile as usual.

I was a little surprised by Rey's cold demeanor, who rarely spoke. But it seems that even so, from his attention to Yumna it seems that Rey really can not be separated from him.

Yumna is an impressive child. And I really want to learn a lot of independence from him. So I decided to stay here with him. Moreover, the friendly attitude makes it comfortable, when taking us around shows all parts of this minimalist house.

Starting from the entrance, immediately visible room to receive guests, with a sofa that is not too much seating capacity. Then walking in, to the immediate left there is a dining room equipped with a television, which is sometimes also used as a lounge.

To the right there are two rooms lined up, with the door facing the dining room towards the back.

After showing me the room I wanted to live in if I was interested later, we walked again to the very back of the house. There is a bathroom and kitchen that is neatly arranged.

"Where, Aish? His house is just gini. Small because it is common to buy something like this" Yumna said after showing the parts.

" You choose yourself. If you want, I can find a bigger apartment, or a bigger house. But you refused!" rey started to sound again.

"I just want to buy with my own money. I'm afraid I can't afford to pay off if it's too far in the limits of what I can produce," Yumna replied, sounding very mature, and very responsible even though her age is not much different from ours.

" Yumna, if allowed, I would be very happy to stay here. Whatever the rent is, I'll try to pay later. But until I get a job, 'cause I want to study independently like you."

"If you have a family that can meet your needs, there is no need for you to force yourself. Thank you for making your parents proud, for what they gave you to finance you here."

"thank you. I'm ashamed of my childish nature" I said, hugging my new best friend.

"Then, how much rent do I have to pay?" I'm getting serious about staying here.

"Pay with a promise, to help me cook later. Because I'm not at all good at it, it's Rey who used to cook for me" said Yumna smiled sincerely again.

"Ready, I'll cook here" I said with a smile.

"Okay, because it's a deal about where to stay, so we'll go home for a bit. Get your suitcases and groceries this afternoon."

"Yes, Brother. Be careful, and thank you!" I said to Azzam's brother.

"You go home alone, I still want to be here" Rey said coldly as before.

"Let's help me pack the things I want to bring here!"

Azzam's sister forcefully pulled Rey's hand, which had been crossed in front of her chest.

"Not to be taken care of, they're adults. If you're here alone, it's bad later."

The tighter the pull, until it managed to make Rey resigned to follow the steps Azzam left.

"Sorry, it's still a mess of his house. There was a hurry to leave" said Yumna, clearing out some of the books still lying on her living room table.

"I help ya. Waiting for the suitcase too."

"No, you must be tired. I will soon prepare a room for you. Grandma's room has been occupied for a long time. So it must be cleaned for a while before it is occupied again. It's okay, isn't it?"

"We work together, let's hurry. After Azzam came, we could cook for dinner right away" I said, holding his hand to make sure I really hoped to be trusted to be his best friend.

"Sip, thank you if you want to accompany me to stay here. So I don't feel lonely anymore if I'm on a work holiday" Yumna replied as she passed to the room she was about to clean for me.

"Where do you work now?" I said follow.

"Rey has a poet located near the tourist attractions. There is plenty of food from many countries there. Well, I work at one of his stalls. Which happens to be the cuisine of your home country" Yumna explained at length about her work.

" Well, I want to go there. If I apply for a job, is it accepted, right? "

" Seriously do you want to work?"

" It would be yes, but I have to ask permission to mother first," I said while changing the bed sheet that Yumna had prepared, while she was wiping all the items from the dust.

" Yes, you better ask permission first. Let's smooth everything you do later. "

We still had a chat this afternoon while getting to know each other. From the story I heard from him, his childhood was almost as lucky as me.

There are no friends, because we have second eyes, which not everyone has. The difference is, I was shunned even bullied by them. As for Yumna, she was not very confident, and chose to hide the abilities she had.

"Hic... Hick..... Hikk.

"Yumna listen? Is that Susi's job again?" I looked questioningly at Yumna.

"Yes, I heard. But that's not Susi's voice. Let's see, yuk!"

Yumna opened the window next to her. Because his voice was like outside, not far from where we were standing.

"There's a girl, cry!" the word Yumna pointed down the tree beside his rum.

"Astaghfirullah, Miss Dina?" I said look out.

"You familiar?"

"Not really, but can we try to communicate with him? Since his son is being treated in the hospital, where we met this morning," I obviously wanted to call a figure I didn't know meant to follow me.

"Whose name? Let me help you talk to him."

"Bu Dina's. Shouldn't we just go there, so we can get closer to talking about the problem. You know, he shows up around me a lot, but he doesn't want to when I talk a lot" I suggested.

"Good idea, come on!"
