The Paralyzed Young Master Little Devil

19

Elton looked at Cherry with a look of wonder when he saw the girl actually brought the child into their chair. Cherry gently treated the two of them without looking down on the two little ones.

Every move Cherry noticed by Elton. The two children looked scared as they looked at Elton who had a flat face as they approached the table.

“ Let's sit here,” said Cherry let them sit down, but the two boys are still sitting on the spot glancing at Elton with a look of fear .

Cherry followed the direction of the two boys' eyes,” eh him? Don't mind , he's a desert lizard, don't bite, if you bite aunty later hit his head with a stone,” Cherry chirps with a smile and pull the children in the chair next to him.

“ Brother don't see them so,” whispered Cherry.

Elton awoke from his daydreams, when he saw the two boys he remembered himself who had lived in poverty.

“ Eh sorry yes, uncle make you afraid huh hahahah.... you don't see this Uncle tompel huh? Take a look at this original loh hahahhaha.” chirps Elton to make the two boys feel comfortable.

“ Hahahhahaha.... look at that , his teeth are also black hahahha” said Cherry.

The two little children giggled at the face of Elton who became funny because of his crazy behavior in front of the two boys.

“ hahahhaha.. so funny... kayak clown..” chirps one of the children whose age is clearly below the child next to him. The child who only showed enough expression while staring at Elton. Although funny, he still felt awkward.

Cherry saw the kid,” hey what's up? Fear not, we will not hurt you, whose name and age are you?” asked Cherry while clasping that dirty-looking little hand.

“ My name is Alvaro , i’m 7 years old, and he is my brother Hansel 5 years old... we...” replied the child with a very thick English accent and Indonesian language that is still mixed with their native language.

Even Cherry and Elton were shocked when they heard the little boy's accent. Very thick British accent and good English. Somehow the two children ended up in this strange place.

“ Where do you live boy?” ask Cherry in the same language to facilitate their communication. But the boy just kept quiet and did not say his address and looked down sad.

“ can you tell us, what happened to both of you?” asked Cherry again, as soon as her curiosity filled her head. He was imagined by the many children who were dumped by parents and children displaced by victims of violence and even children from kidnappings who were forced to work under a large group of underworld conspirators who forced –anak children as a child their tools to make money.

The boy just kept quiet and did not answer anything, even his sister was silent and frightened.

“ Boys..

“ Cher stop, you will scare them, let it go, this is none of our business, do not force them, they must be afraid to meet strangers and suddenly it is about themselves, he said,” said Elton stopped Cherry who was too urgent for the two children.

Cherry sighed, she could at least see children like this, children who lost parents and lived –lantang on the streets. Cherry looked at the two boys, they looked trembling, that skinny body made her heart again grimace in pain.

“ Hah... i’m sorry boys, i don’t mean to hurt you, yes already eat yuk, do not be afraid yes, aunt and uncle are not bad people really,” said Cherry while taking a package of the satellite and giving the food to the two children.

“ this eat first son,” said cherry gently.

Five-year-old Hansel gleefully took one skewer and devoured it because he was so hungry he didn't eat all day. Alvaro just stared at his sister who ate first. Cherry sees Alvaro who is clearly a good brother figure. The look in her eyes showed that she was relieved when she saw her sister eating.

Cherry was puffed up, she took one skewer and gave it to Alvaro,” eat son, it’s okay, take your food,” Cherry said with a smile. Alvaro looked at Cherry , a gentle face that smiled at him as if treating his cold and lonely heart.

He received the satay with trembling hands,” tha...thank you ,” watered the boy with tears falling on both cheeks. He cried because it turns out that there are still people as good as Cherry who want to give him food even though he was just a scavenger who somehow could die of hunger at any time.

Cherry almost cried, but she held back her tears, she smiled again, that was all she could give the little boy because she herself had nothing and now depended on her husband instead.

“ Eat,” he said , the boy nodded and devoured the food with a happy heart, it's their first meal since last night not to eat when it's almost midnight again but they both just got food.

The two children ate voraciously, the medium portion that was split in two for the two boys managed to make both of them full. Cherry doesn't care about her because she can still eat at home with cooking ingredients she can buy, the boy is either where they'll sleep or eat again, he wanted to help them, but he could not just act if he did not want to be called a child kidnapper, after all his financial support did not support him to help the children.

He gave his drink, everything he had to the two boys until the food and drink ran out. Cherry stood up from her seat she saw another booth, then took out the money in the wallet maroon,” I used just a little, wait for work I will change, I will change,” murmured Cherry while heading to the food booth and bought some menus that could at least last until tomorrow for them to eat.

Elton saw how Cherry loved the children without the house so much. He did not know the boy but he was willing to sacrifice for them.

“ Is he human or not?” thought Elton.

Cherry came back with a few bags of food and new clothes that she bought by bidding up to the lowest price.

“ This is for you, take it, change your clothes, eat it will be enough until tomorrow afternoon, auntie hope you are safe, aunt also can not do anything, “ said the girl.

“Where are you staying?” ask Cherry again.

“ Sorry aunt, we can not divulge the home address or.ka.we will..” Alvaro rubbed a bruise on his arm while looking down miserably.

Cherry swallowed her sadness, she knew what happened and could guess what the –k boy was going through,” alright.. You guys are good –well yes, if you guys have been released someday, then you will be, aunt pray for you to be great people, it is easy for someone to help you,” he said with a restrained cry.

“ Our aunt has to go home, already wants the night, we have to go back,” said Alvaro.

Cherry nodded, she let out a heavy sigh,” well , here's the money for you, hide it so you have a grip, if you need help someday, please, if we meet you guys for help with auntie,” said Cherry while hugging the two tightly.

Alvaro and Hansel return Cherry's warm embrace.

Finally the two children left there and brought all the food provided by Cherry.

“ pity them and now I am hungry...” said the girl with a limp body while putting her head on the table.

Elton didn't think that the lady had such a big heart, ” you idiot, you care about other people but your own stomach you don't think about!" elton.

“ eat this!" elton ordered a lot of food for Cherry.

“ Uh brother I don't have any more money, just last time it was minus the money Grape gave me, I can't pay.” reject Cherry in a panic.

“ Ck... Don't have to bring it, eat it, chatty!!" ketus Elton's.
