Sola Nea Cera's

Episode 1: Prologue

In a vegetable garden there is an old grandfather and a boy who is busy picking tomatoes that are red and so refreshing.

"Grandfather. Why are there so many tomatoes?" ask the boy while showing him different types of tomatoes. The grandfather chuckled, "Because they have their own functions"

"The large-sized tomato type of fruit can usually be eaten directly, there is another medium-sized tomato vegetable that is usually made a mixture of dishes, and there is a rather oval it is usually made sauce. And these little ones are cherry tomatoes, he's the most special" Grandpa said.

"Special? why?" the boy lifted the basket containing cherry tomatoes and brought it closer to his grandfather. "Because this tomato has a fairy tale".

"bulls? I want to hear it" the boy's spirit.

"alright. Let's take these tomatoes home first. After that, Grandpa will tell me"

In the spirit of the boy lifted the baskets of tomatoes into their little hut. Then wash his hands and sit next to his grandfather enthusiastically.

"Do you know what the scientific name of cherry tomatoes is?" ask the grandfather. The boy nodded.

"Cerasiforme, which also means beauty and hope. There used to be a pretty little girl. He is very smart, kind and very friendly. And the boy's name is Cerasiforme"

"His life was very happy with his older brother and his parents. Every day they would garden to plant a variety of vegetables and flowers. And of course the girl's favorite is cherry tomatoes. Every day he would take her home to be processed into food or sweets"

"Until one day another little girl came to their family. The girl was exactly the same as the little girl, yet her clothes were shabby and her hair was a mess. The mother knew who she was, she walked up to the shabby girl and hugged her, but the father rudely separated them and drove the little girl away"

"They purposely hid it so as not to get together with their happy family. But one day Cerasiforme saw him, the girl who looked like him. He was so happy to meet the same person as her. They play together every day secretly. Bring her beautiful clothes, pigtail her hair and also put on the same accessories, so that no one can tell them apart"

"So soon the little girl has grown into an adult. And the Cerasiforme twin also wants to feel like having a family. They also exchanged roles. However, gradually the desire of his twin was getting bigger and wanted to rule the life of Cerasiforme completely. So he repeatedly tried to get rid of Cerasiforme"

"Until finally, he managed to marry Cerasiforme's lover who was a prince made Cerasiforme very sad and wanted to end his life. Cerasiforme's brother, who knew the truth, tried to save Cerasiforme, but his twin fired a poisoned arrow and his brother died. Knowing his son was murdered, the parents of Cerasiforme tried to ask the Prince for justice. But the Prince did not believe and sentenced both of them to death. Cerasiforme's life is getting darker he already has no reason to live because everyone he loves is dead"

"Cerasiforme also died in the middle of his family's tomato garden due to suicide. And the Prince who had just learned the truth regretted his actions"

Grandfather sighed after telling his story.

"It's just a tomato, but the story is very sad"

"Come on, don't take the sad story. All you have to know is that you have to live well and have good expectations. Even the smallest, never fall into the bad"

"Alright grandpa. Then how's the story of his twin Cerasiforme after everything died"

"Hmn, grandfather does not know for sure, the story ends there" replied the grandfather.

The summer wind blows. Dry leaves floating in the air paint a new story about life.

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

A man stands in front of a house that has not been seen in the house for a long time. Some of the wood looks weathered to age. He opened the door and wiped away some of the spider webs that were interfering with his path.

As if already very familiar with the place he immediately headed to a room. It seemed like a former workspace, there were several shelves containing many books. There was a rat squeaking and running right as he opened it.

His hand grabbed a book at the end of the shelf and blew the dust slowly. A synthetic leather-bound book with the words Cerasiforme. He opened the already dull book. And her tears are dripping.

"I shouldn't have done it" he said regretfully, wiping a picture of a woman in the book.

And his mind drifted into the past...

...Haru Village. Spring, 1996....

Mr. James paced in front of the maternity room in a huff. Then sit on the bench and stand back up. His son sitting nearby just looked at him and was preoccupied with his sweets.

Shortly after, the doctor and several nurses came out.

"Congratulations, your wife and two daughters are safe" said the doctor. Mr. James was relieved and carried his son to see the state of his wife.

"For a while the baby is in the incubator because the condition is still very weak. Once the situation is better it will be transferred to the nursery" said the nurse. Mr. James nodded happily, and kissed his wife's forehead. "Thank you" he said.

"Thera has two younger sisters" Thera said with a smile.

Mr. James left Thera with his mother and went out for a while to find food. Suddenly a middle-aged woman approached him in panic.

"Sorry, sir, is there a birth of twin girls?" tanyakanya.

"Huh? Ah yes Madam" replied Mr. James.

"Gosh, was he born at 3 o'clock in 33 minutes?"

"Right"

"Yes God. This is really happening" said the woman in a panic, leaving Mr James even more confused.

"Master. I beg you to immediately separate the baby. Or her family life would be tragic. Because two elements depart from them"

"What are you saying, madam, you're talking weird"

"Master, believe it or not. My dreams have always come true. I warned you"

Mr. James did not care, and left the woman who was still shouting at him.

Upon his return, Mr. James told his wife the story and of course his wife did not believe in such superstitions.

A few days later, they were able to see their baby. Mr. James invited Thera to meet his sisters. Thera who was a child on her tiptoes to look at it.

"Dad, my sister is just this. This is not my sister" Thera pointed to one crying baby girl.

"Can't be so Thera, they're your sisters. You must love them both" said Mr. James.

"No. Anyway my sister is just this one" Thera dropped her candy on a crying baby and held her hand. And suddenly Thera fell and fainted. Frantic Mr. James took his son to see a doctor.

"Leukemia?" ask Mr. James not to believe it. This was so sudden, how could his perfectly healthy son have such a serious illness?. Several times he made sure to the doctor about what he heard, but the answer remained the same.

And Mr. James recalled the strange woman's words back then. Somehow he immediately took his daughter who was being dropped with candy by Thera who was still crying and took her away. The sleeping princess blinked her eyes slowly and opened as Mr. James left.
