78. A Flavor
Saoda opened his eyes which had been closed since. He sat on the ground and he frowned in confusion staring at the surface of his dirty palm.
Where is he now? Saoda doesn't understand this.
"Stop!!!"
The screams of the little girl were heard making Saoda turn to look at himself who was on top of the house crying and the figure of Tuo who was seen standing while holding one of his hands.
Is that him? But why could his body be two like this?
"Don't go!!!"
"Please don't go!!!"
"To-to-please, Indokuuuu!!!"
"How can you leave Indoku in this state!!!"
Saoda turned to look at Sae and Puang Lao who were seen stepping away. The two men, Saoda remembered the two of them. He had left and ignored both his parents.
"I beg you Indokuuuuu!!!" saoda shouted that sounded scream.
Saoda who was still sitting on the ground looked up at Saoda who was on top of the house trying to move his hand which was still held by Tuo who was already crying as he pleased.
"Let go, Tuo!!! Release!!!"
"No, Indo has told me to take care of you. I-I-I won't let you go!!!"
"Tie him off Tuo!!!" shouting Saoda.
"You don't want to let go of me then who will help Indo me there? There he was stoned!!!"
"Aren't you thinking about how the pain is? Don't you know?!!" snapper Saoda.
"But I've also been ordered to look after you."
"If I let you go now and let you go there then what will you do? Whahuh? Huh?!!"
Saoda pressed his head that hurt. This sentence is a conversation sentence during the burning event. So is this a dream again? Is he dreaming? The same dream he had every night?
"You won't be able to help her!!? You hear?!! You won't be able to help her?!!" His pointing made Saoda flinch in shock.
Saoda looked back at the two boys up there who were still clashing their mouths.
"Why are you still asking? Let go of me and let me help Indo me!!!"
"What way did you help her?"
"I'll explain everything!!!"
"No one will hear you. To them you're just a little kid who can only cry!!!" tuo's shout made Saoda now speechless.
"Stop! It's enough we all threw it!!!" sae's shouts of poang made everyone stop her throw.
Saoda looked at the man. Even he had grown tired of seeing the face of the man who had no heart.
"Why stopped? It's not enough to punish and avenge his actions."
"Yes, right. Throwing and making him bleed is not enough and now let's make him much more tormented" said Puang Sae with a sly smile.
The residents are now whispering to each other with faces that look clueless.
"What did you say poang?"
"Now let's burn him!!!" shouts Sae's poang while lifting jerkin up made everyone scream.
"Yes, burn him!!!"
"Burn!!!"
"Burn!!!"
Saoda's two rounded eyes stared at Sae's puang who was seen twisting the kerosene jerkin cover.
Saoda. "No, don't do that!!!" saoda shouted and immediately ran and his hand was trying to get rid of the kerosene jerkin but what was the power of his fingers even penetrated the surface of the jerkin and right before his eyes Puang Sae immediately splashed Sambe's body with kerosene coming from jerkin's.
Boamm!!!
The loud noise was heard when Sae's poang directly threw a torch into Sambe's body which was immediately burned.
"Yahoo!!!"
"Yahoooo!!!"
"Yahoooooooo!!! Aaaaah!!!"
The sound of screams was heard accompanied by Sambe's movements wriggling on the ground trying to dodge the flames that had burned his entire body.
"Aimone!!!" scream Saoda.
Saoda closed his ears tightly as if he could not bear to hear the sound of his screams. Saoda's body shook violently. He's really scared.
"Take me out of this dream!!!"
"Eject!!!"
"Get me out!!! I can't stand it anymore. Please please get me out!!!"
"Soda wake! Wake Saoda!"
"Huh!!!"
Both Saoda's eyes were rounded. He looked at the ceiling of his room with fear.
"Soda!"
The heavy voice of a man was heard making Saoda turn to look at the handsome yellow-skinned man who was now looking at him with a face that was so very worried.
"You okay?" ask the man again while helping Saoda to sit on the bed.
"I'm fine" replied Saoda.
He looked at the handsome man. His body is tall and looks muscular, yes this is all because he is diligent in working.
"Are you sure?" ask the man again.
"I'm fine tuo" replied Saoda.
Well, after going through twelve years now Tuo the hardworking little boy has grown into an adult man who is diligent in work.
Tuo looked at the pure white girl with hair that was allowed to unravel as well as an incomparable beauty in this village. Already many single men who intend to propose to Saoda but, Puang Dodi blatantly refused.
Well, poang Dodi still remembers the sentence that was thrown when Jambe was still alive if they would match their child even though honestly Saoda and Tuo did not know this matchmaking.
Puang Dodi intends to marry them at the age of Saoda who is fourteen years, but the death of a young mother during childbirth and the age is still fourteen years.
Puang Dodi was afraid that the incident would also befall Saoda. Puang Dodi has promised to look after Saoda. No one could trust Saoda but his own son.
Puang Dodi saw how attentive Tuo was to Saoda who loved him so much.
Tuo nodded then not for a long time he immediately got up from Saoda's bed. The one who stepped out looked back.
"Are you sure?" ask Tuo.
Saoda glanced at her making her eyes so beautiful it left Tuo mesmerized in an instant before he finally averted his gaze.
"Well, it looks like you're okay," Tuo said and immediately stepped out.
Tuo stopped his extremely fast pace and turned to sit on the stepladder. He touched his chest which suddenly thumped after he looked at Saoda.
To be honest he kept the taste to Saoda, but he could not reveal the truth to Saoda. Tuo was afraid that Saoda would be angry with him let alone the two of them being raised together.
It was clear that Saoda only considered him his best friend, nothing more.
"What's up, son?"
The sound was heard making Tuo turn to look at Puang Dodi who was now standing on the steps while looking up at him.
"Sir."
