District Two will be his next stop. Zack must stay at least a week before finally going back to district three. From the notes that Zack read from his father, it was like that. One week was a hiding time intended for children with special abilities when they arrived in one of the districts because every week, some of the Orions would go to the central headquarters so that the district environment would be quiet.Zack arrived on the eighth day, which meant he had to hide first to wait for the number of black-robed men to decrease.Zack finally started moving towards his late grandmother's house without waiting long. His eyes remained wide open to observe the surroundings, and his grip on the knife tightened. The sun was quite hot, shining down on the earth from above, which made Zack even more afraid because his father always advised Zack to be in the dark when he was in a crowded place where Orion might be in. Zack spent too much time on his journey, even though he could have arrived
Zack was still passive after the unexpected incident that had just happened a few minutes ago. The man was still in shock from what he had just seen with his own eyes, so it was extremely difficult even to make a sound. Plus, the man who had been the main focus of the incident not long ago was now sitting not far from him.They were currently still in the kitchen and sitting on the cold floor. The man had already offered Zack to sit on a chair, but Zack just shook his head and didn't make a sound to answer him. However, when the man again offered him to move and sit on the softer front sofa, Zack could let out his voice, which was full of annoyance.“Do you think I can sit on the front couch after just seeing someone die in front of my own eyes right there?” Zack asked sarcastically. Even if the man could pay closer attention, he could see how Zack’s body was shaking right now because he was so scared.The man grinned innocently as if what had just happened was something he had witnes
“If you remember, I used to cry because you didn’t want to be friends and kept avoiding me when I tried to approach you to ask you to be friends. Even though we were still little at that time and I had no other goal than asking you to be friends, you always avoided me—not only from me but also from the outside world.”Haikal spoke up again and tried to awaken some of Zack's memories about him that had been buried for a long time in his head. They had never been close before and had only met a few times, and it was just like what the man had said—Zack would always immediately move away whenever Haikal tried to approach him. That was why Zack couldn't clearly remember who the man in front of him was right now. Moreover, they had never chatted for a long time before, and Zack didn't have a good memory of him.By the way, it was no wonder Haikal knew that Zack was the grandson of the late owner of this house because he was an old neighbour of his grandmother."I just remember that your fa
Haikal is a good person.It only took a few hours for Zack to convince himself that the man sitting beside him while playing something on his cell phone was indeed a good person.There was a reason Zack could say such a thing, and all of his reasons had been proven by his own eyes.First, when Zack accidentally realized that his late grandmother's house looked neat and clean even though it had been abandoned for a long time, Haikal told a story without being asked. He said that long ago, when he was bored, Haikal would come here and clean this house.Zack also just found out that his father knew this man. That's why Haikal could enter and exit the house easily. He had permission and a mandate from Zack's father to guard this house. Haikal was already very familiar with all the rooms in this house because he was the one who often cleaned them when he had time.Second, Haikal has always remembered Zack since the man came here. At every opportunity, Haikal would always try to talk to Zac
Dawn has greeted since a few moments ago. It always arrives on time, along with the chirping of the birds as a morning radio that pampers the ears, even with the cool breeze that directly hits the skin if a cloth does not cover it to warm it up.But the air can cool the heart and mind, some even say that morning air is good for health. Zack immediately felt all these things as soon as he came out of the yard of his house and stood on the front porch at six in the morning.He stared at the vast expanse of sky above through the gaps in the leaves from the nearby trees. Zack couldn't see the whole sky from where he was standing, but he thought this was enough.Turning his gaze straight to stare at the trees that lined up irregularly right in front of him meters away, the leaves on each stem gently swaying every time a gust of wind hit, Zack also shuddered as his arm felt the current directly.He wasn't lying, but it was freezing in here."The morning view is always beautiful and refreshi
The downtown square is one of Zack's favourite spots in district one, he's always loved visiting this place since he never had anything special to do. When he got out of his father's car when he arrived, Zack looked around, which still looked the same crowded since he had left two weeks ago. Their purpose in visiting the city centre is because his father works in one of the shops in this place and Zack can also be free to buy necessities for the almost finished house."Don't go far from the city market, okay? You made a promise to Dad, so don't break it," Father warned his only son again, to which Zack immediately nodded. "Before three o'clock, you have to be back here," he added again, Zack just nodded again so his father wouldn't worry."Any more messages?" Zack asked with a mischievous smile once his father stopped making a sound. Zack thought the message had run out because he was just about to turn around so he could leave immediately, but his father held him back.“Zack, are you
There used to be a story about a child who was born to coincide with the presence of a full moon. The time of his birth missed far from what had been predicted by the previous doctor, the baby was born faster than it should have.On that night, the full moon was shining very brightly as if its light was an absolute marker of the birth of a little son from two happy parents because the couple could only have children after their marriage touched the fourth year of marriage. However, no one knows that it turns out that the full moon is also a sign that the birth is not an ordinary birth like babies in general. The little boy is blessed with a unique ability that was never expected.A few moments after birth, instead of crying loudly like babies. The baby smiled broadly as if someone was joking with him then. Realizing this strangeness, at first, the nurses were still regular, but the baby still didn't cry hours later.As a result, the nurses did various ways to make him cry because she
The incident appears in the head like a roll of film that rotates once without the aid of a tool. From his point of view at that time, Zack saw from the top of the stairs how grandma fell and lay down there. In the end, the household assistant soon came out because he had heard a loud sound from outside the room.But no matter how fast he moved, the grandmother still could not be saved.Zack was still trying to persuade his mother that day with a face full of requests. "Yes, mom? Let's stay here, okay?" Zack feared what he saw would become real because he had a strange feeling about his grandmother that he couldn't shake off.Zack was distraught at that time.Hearing his nonstop whining, finally the father came closer, holding each of his son's shoulders and then looking at him intently. "Tomorrow, Dad still has to work, and you also have to go to school. Just postpone the stay to next week, okay?”"But, I-""Dad, we promise to stay here next week," interrupted his father with a sever
