1 chapter one

In one of the first morning they need to get out from their safe place, it was in the cold winter. They felt hard on their chest, to step out from the place where they growth the memories with their parents. But now, it's not anymore. They now under orphanage care. They're still underage and no ones from the parents relatives want to adopt them. It's a misery for the siblings too, when they said that taking them to live under their roof could give them headaches and burdens. Both of them just kept it silent without any rejection or defy any of their arguments during the meeting together with the counselor.

They finally off without able to talk. Both of them just stay in the silent. Can't argue or can't defend themselves.

The uncle of the orphanage house offered them to sit comfortably with the car's door opened. They took another last few seconds to reminiscing the happiness they've experience so far. It doesn't last long. Only couple of years.

After they arrived on the first day in the orphanage house, it felt warm enough, but as far they living in it, it just felt so wrong. There are some bullies bullied his brother. His brother is disabled person; he's born mute. First of all, how can they hurt him just because he is a silent one? It just doesn't make sense to him. No matter how many times the older brother warned them to not disturb him, they always misleading the information and told the caregiver that he bullied them. Why can't they just take care of their life as they did it before the siblings live here? Sometimes, it is hard to leave the brother alone to attend school. Sometimes too, he would found his brother faint in the bathroom by the bullies. They just keep quiet, they don't want to tell the caregivers the real and fact story. It could bring the disaster into the peaceful house that they currently live in.

They are Alex Frendstar and his brother Andre. They are orphans and they just want love from the adults. Alex missed their real family. It's tiring to stay here. All the times, he can't do anything he wants, he can't confidently protect his brother from bullies. Before this, he with other two adults would be there to protect Andre from the kids. Naughty kids would always be the one who disturb him; verbally or sometimes their hands on him. These are unfair treatment to him.

This has led him to run from there. He doesn't think about any further incident. Just wanted to run from everything as much as he can. Just almost every time he has, he will find a way to run away from the house with Andre. But the guard would always found them too.

Though, Alex and Andre could give their gratitude to him. The guard became the only person they could believe and just vent out their sadness include madness to him. He is very understanding man to them. No matter how long it would take for every story, he just gave his ears and listened without further questions nor arguments about what's right and what's wrong.

The caregivers literally at the lost of hands to take care hundred of kids, just thank to the God, for giving them a guy for him to receive love. He makes them felt way more better living with strangers. He gave them the feeling of being secured with safety, though he's also a stranger that they barely know for over months only.

"I just hope, I would have you forever; unlike my parents who now's died. I'm not complaining, but I felt unprotected. We are exposed to pains and words from the others while we literally unable to talk the truth." Alex vented out his heart to the guard. He rubbed his back and smiled to him. It's a very soothing smile that turned his stress into melted ices.

"I also hoping that I will live longer than I already is, so that we can stay together and talk till whenever."

"Thank you so much for everything. I'm glad you're here." with that, Alex and Andre respectfully hugged the guard with light feeling. The story telling usually ended with a cup of hot drink and then he sent them to the room to sleep again. From the far, he sees them fell back to sleep in peaceful mood.

"Have a great night again. You deserve better, kids." He whispered slowly and walked back to his post.
