David and Arthur fight
The night atmosphere in the big house was very quiet, even though there were many people in the house.
But they seem to be the type of people who don't like to joke around.
And that makes Mesya, have to start adapting to her new environment.
She who used to live in a lively and cheerful atmosphere full of laughter in the orphanage now has to live quietly and uphold etiquette.
Mesya stares at the ceiling of her new room, imagining what her friends are doing at the orphanage right now.
Even though she had only been here a day, the laughter from the orphanage made her miss her so much.
"This house is very luxurious, my room is also very beautiful, but it feels much more pleasant to sleep together in an orphanage." The Mesya muttered.
Klontang!
Sh*t!
There was a noise outside the room, and Mesya was surprised and curious, Mesya finally came out of the room to see it.
And it turns out, in the living room there are David and Arthur who are fighting.
There was a bruise on Arthur's forehead, and blood on his lips.
The wound was caused by David hitting him, but even so, Arthur still looked relaxed while laughing incoherently.
Without crying or afraid to see the gaze of his brother who is very cold and scary.
"Hey, you guys don't fight!" shouted Mesya who tried to disperse him.
"Hey, Mesya! My beautiful sister, please tell your brother so she won't be rude again!" Arthur said telling Mesya.
"Haha! He is a stupid and naughty boy, he likes to be rude, who does he think he is?!" Arthur said disdainfully to David.
Mesya immediately glanced at David who also turned to look at Mesya's face with a very cold gaze and seemed to signal Mesya not to interfere.
But even so, Mesya felt that if she couldn't just sit back and watch this fight, even more so now that she was a part of them.
"You guys don't fight, let alone hurt each other like this, you brothers!" said Mesya.
Then she walked towards David, even though she was really scared of him, but Mesya forced herself to talk to David.
"David, why did you hurt Arthur? You are brothers, so you shouldn't hurt each other like this,"
Mesya grabbed David's hand, but David didn't heed his words.
"David, since, has hurt Arthur's face, so you have to apologize, with Arthur!" said Mesya, "Mrs Lia said, if we make a mistake, we must apologize to the person we hurt," he added.
Then David held Mesya's hand and immediately shone sharp eyes that seemed to be deadly, at Mesya.
Instantly Mesya's guts suddenly shrunk, but even so, the little girl remained steadfast, because according to her she was in the right position. She always remembered the words of Mrs Lia, an orphanage nurse, who always taught her not to be afraid of anyone as long as she was in the right position.
While glaring at her angrily, David said in a threatening tone in Mesya's ear.
"That weak girl like you should go back to the orphanage! You don't deserve to be here!" sneered David.
Bruck!
David pushed Mesya's body to the floor, and Mesya was seen wincing in pain while crying. She was crying not only because of the pain from hitting the floor, but she was also crying because she felt sad being scolded by David.
David found him very rude, and he lacked the tender heart of a ten-year-old who was certainly much more mature than a 7-year-old like him.
"Beautiful sister, you are fine, right?" Arthur asked, holding out his hand to help Mesya up.
And then suddenly, Arumi and her husband Charles woke up from their sleep, then approached them both.
When the husband and wife came, the voice immediately fell silent again, David and Arthur immediately bowed their heads.
They seem like obedient children and never make a fuss.
Just as Mesya saw at the beginning of the meeting.
"Ehem! You two fought again, huh?" asked Arumi to his two sons.
But they all didn't answer.
"You guys are grown up, shouldn't have done something so stupid."
"Sorry Ma'am!" said David and Arthur in unison.
Then slowly Arumi glanced at Arthur's battered face.
And Arumi immediately held and stroked him gently.
"Arthur, this must be your fault huh?" Arumi urged Arthur.
But Arthur was silent and did not answer him, he who used to look normal now became quiet and looked very scared.
Mesya was surprised because Arthur's face was clearly battered, but Arumi instead accused Arthur of being guilty, of course, that didn't apply to him.
Mesya finally got up the courage to say what she saw.
"Not Arthur's fault, Mom! but David's brother who hit him, even David's brother pushed me to the ground!" Mesya explained in a loud voice.
Arthur smiled at Mesya's defence, while David looked furious and clenched his fists because he was annoyed with Mesya's words.
"Is it true?" asked Arum.
But all was silent, and Arumi immediately approached David and took his hand, then asked him to leave.
Just before leaving, Arumi took the time to kiss Mesya's forehead.
"Mesya doesn't be afraid, honey," she whispered.
Arumi took David to a room and still held David's hand.
But slowly, David's arm, which was held by Arumi, started to bleed a little. It turned out that Arumi not only held David's hand, but he also grabbed and stuck his long nails into David's hand.
David looked slightly grimaced, but the 10-year-old didn't fight back at all.
While behind him Mr Charles followed them both while unbuckling his belt.
Mesya just stared at the three of them blankly, not knowing what Arumi, Charles, and David were doing in the room.
Mesya is sure that David will only be given advice or small punishments such as mopping the floor or sweeping the yard like the punishments often given by Mrs Lia, to naughty orphans.
"You, why are you daydreaming Mesya?" Arthur asked.
"I pray that after this, David doesn't hate me," said Mesya innocently.
"Relax, Beautiful Sister. If he gets angry and hates you, I will defend you!" Arthur calmed down.
Mesya immediately smiled, "Wow, thank you, Arthur," said Mesya.
'Stupid,' thought Arthur.
"Yes, I wants to sleep first," said Mesya.
"Yes, Beautiful Sister, good night, have a sweet dream,"
"Arthur too, good night and have a nice dream.

Klontang!
"Gosh! Dad!"
