The Trip Of My Heart

EPISODE 14 - -> Poor little boy

Mirai looked at the boy. "You were the kid on the plantation back then, right? Why are you here? Quickly return the food you stole."

"Yes, right. I followed the boy to the plantation because I wanted revenge on him" replied the boy.

"Cowok you mean Eisuke?"

"Yes, of course. I've been after him for a long time."

"Then why did you steal that food? Quickly give it back to me!" snapped Mirai.

"I steal because I'm hungry. I don't have any money to buy food" the boy replied, bowing his head.

Mirai sighed. "Do you have parents? Where do you live? I'll take you home."

"I don't have parents. I only have a father, but he's dead" the boy said slowly.

"Then, where have you lived all this time?" asked Mirai to know.

"I don't have a home. I sleep everywhere and move around" replied the boy.

"Oh, pity this child once again. Behind his terrible behavior, it turns out that he is a poor child," the inner Mirai sympathized.

"Umm. okay, just take the food, let's just say I'm being kind to you. However, on one condition, do not steal again. Youunderstand?" mirai was wise.

"I can't. I've lived all this time to steal. I steal to eat" the boy replied honestly.

Mirai fell silent and thought seriously. "Look, if you're hungry you can come to the minimarket where I work. I'll buy you some food. However, I have one request!"

"What's that?" ask the boy.

"Forget your revenge on Eisuke. Don't chase him again. Can you do it? If your father is alive, maybe he doesn't want to see you suffer like this either" Mirai said.

The boy was silent for a long time, then he opened his mouth to speak. "All right! I'm not going after him anymore. But.. Can I come to your place every day? To be honest, I'm having trouble eating."

"Okay, come to my place of work. I'll feed you every day." Mirai agreed with the boy's request. "Btw, what's your name?"

"I'm Yoshi. Yoshi Sano's." The boy told me his name.

"All right, Yoshi. Take the food, and from tomorrow come to my place. I'm going back to work now. See you tomorrow." said Mirai.

"Wait on! May I know the name of the brother?" ask Yoshi.

"My name, Mirai. I'll see you tomorrow!" Mirai ended the conversation.

"Thank you," Yoshi said softly as he stared at Mirai leaving.

"I feel sorry for him. Yoshi and I have no parents in common. However, I was a bit luckier than him, because I still had an uncle taking care of me" Mirai said in her heart.

Tonight, in the residence house Shinomiya looks silent and lonely. Megumi suddenly approached her father who was sitting in the study.

"Are you busy? Can I come in?" ask Megumi politely.

"By my love, come in!" Dad smiled. "Why are you suddenly looking for dad? What's up."

Megumi lowered her head and found it hard to explain. "Dad, i..."

"Tell me, what's wrong?" ask his father again.

Megumi looked at her father. "During this time I knew, right, since I was a kid I really liked Eisuke. I'm..."

"Hm.. Hm.. I know now what your daughter means." Megumi's father laughed. "You want to ask dad for help to get Eisuke right?"

"Yes," Megumi replied as she nodded her head.

"From a long time ago, the Shinomiya family and the Harada family were already very close business partners. Later I will try to talk about this with the Harada family," said Megumi's father.

"Thank you, dad." Megumi smiled happily.

"Sir Kaito, Hiro," said Mirai.

"Hi, pretty," replied Hiro teasingly.

"Hello, if it's not your fault Mirai, yes. Right?" ask Kaito.

"Yes, right. Apparently Kaito's brother still remembers my name" Mirai said with a smile.

Kaito laughs. "Of course."

"Do you know each other?" ask Hiro curious.

"Just met a few times. Oh yeah, next week I'm birthday. You two come to my birthday party" Kaito said.

"Okay, we'll both come" Hiro replied quickly.

"hiro! I haven't said yes, why did you get ahead?!" asked Mirai annoyed.

Kaito smiled and patted Mirai's shoulder slowly. "Have come, okay? I'm going first. See you soon." Kaito walked away and left them.

"Mirai, I want you to go with me to Kaito's birthday" Hiro said.

Mirai frowned. "Isn't Kaito's brother Eisuke, and you and Eisuke seem unfriendly. Are you sure you want to come to the party?"

"I hate Eisuke, but Kaito and I are best friends. Don't think about it, when her birthday party arrives I'll pick you up" Hiro said.

"Umm, okay." Mirai finally agreed.

"Now let's get to class!" Hiro grabbed Mirai's hand and grasped it tightly.

They walked together to class. As he was about to arrive in front of the classroom, Eisuke suddenly appeared and leaned his body at the entrance. Mirai tried to pull her hand from Hiro's grasp, but the grip was too tight and she did not manage to let go of her hand. As a result, Eisuke saw them join hands.

After college, Aiko visits the minimarket where Mirai works. He wanted to know what his friend was like.

"Is it really okay if I go to your workplace?" ask Aiko.

"Yes, it's okay. My boss is a good man." replied Mirai.

"Your markets are pretty clean" said Aiko, looking around.

"Yes, every day the employees here always take turns cleaning it. Oh yeah, what do you want to drink?" ask Mirai.

"Anything is okay" Aiko replied as she looked around.

When Mirai goes to get a drink, Yoshi goes into the minimarket. Aiko widened her eyes when she saw the boy.

"Mirai! Who her? Why are the clothes so dirty!" aiko screams in fear.

Shortly after, Mirai returned with a drink. "Oh, this is the kid I found on the street. I feel sorry for him. So, I helped her feed."

Aiko rounded her eyes. "uh? you're so kind. Even too good!"

Mirai gave Yoshi a box of rice. "Yoshi, this is eating fast."

"Sister Mirai, thank you so much for helping me." Yoshi was unable to hold back his tears and ended up crying.

Mirai smiled and thought. "(If I buy Yoshi food every day, maybe my money won't be enough. I think I should find another way)"

At night, Uncle is always waiting for Mirai to have dinner together. Upon arriving home, Mirai looked agitated and thought of something.

"It seems I need to talk about the yoshi matter to uncle." Mirai thought in her heart.

Without realizing it, his handkerchief fell on the floor and uncle picked it up.
