The Young Master's Beloved Princess

Episode 14

"Three years ago, this store was already on the verge of closing. You come here with great enthusiasm. Saying that if you work in this store, then this store will survive. Mbok did not believe that a child of your age would say such a thing. But seeing your sincerity, mbok also accepted you to work here. Mbok also said that the salary you will get is not as much as you think, but you still accept it. Time after time passed, and it is true that this store can again last for three years thanks to you. Happy and sad we went through together. It's time to close this store for good. Mbok is also old, mbok children call mbok to come along with him. Mbok is really very grateful and grateful to you, Andini."

"Hiks.. Hix.. Hix.. Mbok !" Andini who was unable to stem her cries, hugged Mbok Inah tightly.

In tears, Andini already thought something like this would happen. But still, he couldn't take it for granted. They both hugged each other for a long time. Gently, Mbok Inah rubbed Andini's head in his arms.

Slowly, Andini did not cry. He took off his arms with Mbok Inah. Mbok Inah also touched Andini's cheeks while rubbing around his eyes with his thumb.

"When it's night, you can go home. Girls are not good to go home alone at night. Here's your pay, sorry just this. Thanks again, Andini."

"Yes, mbok. Thank you for taking care of Andini." Andini can only smile, even though in her heart she still feels sadness. How not, something that he can only do for 3 years to meet his needs every day even though it is not so much there will no longer be. Mbok Inah who always accompany him while working will also leave. After that, Andini was alone and left.

"What is this, mbok ?" Andini who received it was so curious.

"So the morning before you got here, there was someone spreading this across the region to put on display. The curious mbok saw it. I'm sure this is the answer you're looking for. Open it when you get home. You're so beautiful, good luck." With a smile Mbok Inah gave a farewell greeting. To cover the still sad feeling, Andini also returned the greeting with a smile and went back to her residence.

On the way home, Andini did not walk like people in general. A bowed head, unbalanced footsteps and mixed thoughts. Then, at that moment he was sitting on a quiet and narrow road.

"Dad ! Why did you leave so quickly ?! Andini is tired ! Debt that does not know when it paid off, daily needs that are difficult to meet, looking for a decent job continuously, and a mother who is now sick ! Andini how, daddy ?! Daddy ! Hix.. Hix.. Hicks.."

Andini really - really not able to withstand the fatigue that he has been quiet all this time. In the solitude of the place, she cried and continued to cry trying to get out her feelings.
