Chapter 3: Chapter 3: Oniichan!
"What's your name? My name is Yuki," Yuki asked again about the name of the man who had helped him.
"Alva," replied the man who was none other than Alva.
"Greetings, Alva, once again thank—"
Yuki's words stopped when Alva suddenly handed over a small tray containing two pills of medicine and a glass of water. Yuki, who had not yet digested it, was silent for a moment before finally asking again.
"Is this for Yuki?" He asked, looking at Alva playfully.
"Hmm,"
"Thank you so much again!" Yuki said with immediately intended to take the pills. However, Alva quickly held his hand which made Yuki frown in confusion.
"Eat," said Alva briefly, which of course could not be digested by Yuki's slow brain.
"Eat?" Yuki asked confused.
"Have you had your breakfast?" Alva asked now more clearly.
"Oh? Um... done," Yuki answered, which was actually a lie. How could I not? The sweet man didn't have breakfast when he wanted to go to kindergarten earlier.
Kruyukkk....
Yuki's hungry stomach rumbled. Yuki blushed slightly in embarrassment which made Alva glance at him.
"Come with me," said Alva who immediately got up from the bed he was sitting on and then intended to leave before the noise of stomach came back again.
Brukk...!
Yuki's tiny body collapsed as he tried to get off the overly high bed. Seeing Yuki who fell, made Alva squeal and immediately approached to this boy.
"Ck," Alva squeaked when he heard Yuki's faint moan. He immediately lifted his body and took him out. It was looked Alva lifted the tiny body just like a child.
"I'm sorry, are you mad?" Yuki asked when he sat back down by Alva.
"Eat," he ordered Yuki which made him turn head towards the pantry table which was already filled with the food menu that Yuki really wanted.
"Wow!! Can Yuki eat this?" Yuki asked with sparkling eyes leaking in the food and Alva.
"Yes," Alva answered simply.
"Thank you! But, what should I do first? Taking the plate? But where is it?" asked Yuki who confused himself and making Alva heave a heavy sigh.
"Eat right away," said Alva, handing one of the menus to Yuki.
"Without rice? We don't share?" He asked again and it made Alva annoyed because Yuki was innocent…, or stupid?
"No. No," said Alva one by one.
"Um, you didn't have breakfast?"
"I had,"
"Oh, I see. So, Yuki can eat them all?"
"Hmm,"
"It's okay?"
"Hmm,"
"Okay thank you very much!" said Yuki finally and immediately ate all the available breakfast menus. He was so enthusiastic, because Yuki could only smell the aroma of all these dishes when he was at the restaurant. Every day, Yuki only eats by his salary when he worked at a restaurant. Yes, the restaurant only paid Yuki for a pack of lunch.
Then, how about his breakfast and dinner? Did Yuki not get them? The answer is yes, although it's rarely. He bought them by his income as a painting teacher and cafe and restaurant waiter. He eats rarely, as he saved his money to buy a new sketchbook or pencil.
Meanwhile, Alva who saw Yuki eating was a little sad. How come? The sweet man really devoured all the breakfast menus he bought earlier. Every now and then Alva also glanced at Yuki's body which was too small. Yuki was also very thin, looking like a malnourished person.
"Finished! Thank you so much again!" Yuki said after finishing the whole meal with the leftovers still on the corners of his lips. Realizing, Alva reached out his hand to clean the rest of the food on the corners of that tiny lips.
"Hm," replied Alva who again just mumbled.
"May I ask?" Yuki asked and it made Alva's eyebrow raise.
"Are you older than me?" Yuki asked afterward.
"..." didn't answer, Alva just shrugged his shoulders as response.
"How old are you?" Yuki asked again.
"Nineteen," Alva answered honestly.
"Wow!! Oniichan?!" Yuki shouted happily which made Alva immediately turn to him.
"What?" Alva asked with a frown on his face.
"Ah? Don't understand huh? I call you my brother then, "said Yuki who misunderstood.
"Brother?" Alva asked now with his sharp eyes.
"Brother, you don't understand? Or are you mad at Yuki?" Yuki asked back now with a worried expression on his face.
"Shut up," replied Alva who was already lazy to hear the chatter that came out of those tiny lips.
"Brother Alva is angry with Yuki? I-I'm sorry," said Yuki who was starting to get scared by the tone and since Alva was getting colder.
"No. Shut up," Alva replied with such emphasis which made Yuki understood that the 'brother' was not want to be bothered at this time.
Alva, immediately got up from the chair he was sitting in and rushed to clear the pantry which was full of dirty dishes. Meanwhile, Yuki, now just silently stares at Alva who deftly washes the dirty dishes.
"Where is your house?" Alva asked when he'd finished tidying things up.
"..." There was no answer from Yuki which surprised Alva.
"Go home," said Alva, which made Yuki immediately get up from the high chair with difficulty stepping on the floor.
"Where to?" Alva asked quickly while holding the tiny arm when Yuki was about to leave his apartment.
"..." Again there was no response from Yuki. The sweet man just wrinkled his forehead in surprise looking at Alva who now looked embarrassed.
"Silent?" asked Alva, already too irritated.
"..." Only a short nod Yuki gave to the cold man.
"Talk!" Alva's orders snapped slightly which made Yuki flinched to hear it.
"Yes?" Yuki replied who finally spoke up.
"Do you notice me ?" Alva growled at Yuki who just looked at him with confused eyes.
"Brother, why? Are you angry? I was silent, weren't I? Why did brother tell Yuki to talk again?" Yuki asked innocently.
"Stupid!" cursed Alva who had completely lost his mind. I feel like I want to swallow Yuki right now.
"S-sorry, brother," Yuki replied who immediately lowered his head when he heard Alva's curse just now.
"I'll take you home," said Alva who immediately pulled Yuki's arm a little harshly towards the outside of the apartment. But before that,
Brukk…!
Yuki's tiny body once again had to fall down due to a small stumble when the two of them were right in front of the apartment door. Seeing Yuki who looked small, Alva couldn't stand it and immediately hold the tiny body like a child and took him out of the apartment. Meanwhile, Yuki herself, who was surprised, then immediately wrapped his arms around Alva's neck.
