"Are you really sure, kid? That no one saw you when you did that thing?" Said by my grandmother named Klasia who's adopted me, and that question made me really think.
As far as I've known , there's no one, considering it was raining too much that time and it really was so dark there. Besides, I've got no choice but to help that creature since it was also my fault why he got there in that situation.
"Granny, if there's really saw me that night, for sure, our neighborhood already went to me" I answered back to my Granny. I could see her worries through her eyes while staring at me, this was the first time in a while I've witnessed this worry through her eyes ever since she first time saw me at the footbridge while staring at the sky. "Don't worry, my Granny" I said and I hug her tightly.
"How about you, Asha?" Granny suddenly spoke so I faced her and wait for her next words, "Are you alright? Are you hurt right now? What did you feel?" Granny asked then checked my arms as if she was looking for something. It's been days since she was like this, asking me if I'm okay or suddenly asked what I'm feeling but my answers were just the same. I'm really fine.
I smiled and I held my Granny's both hands, I looked straight to her eyes, "I'm fine, Granny, don't worry too much about me" I said where she just nod as an answer. "I'll prepare your food first since I'm sure that you're so tired from harvesting earlier" I continued. I just went straight to our kitchen.
"I just hope I really save him" I whispered to myself as I'm preparing my Granny's dinner. I've been helping Granny Klasia since she adopted me and that was already a long ago. We're doing harvest to her farm and preparing her meal after her work is already my daily routine ever since I came here. I'm not sure why she living alone here in the house where I also lives.
Yeah, you guys thinking were right, Granny Klasia isn't my biological Grandmother. Honestly, at first I really don't know what's the meaning of Grandmother because there's no such thing to my world but after I've spent my years here with Granny and her friends that near to our house and farm, I already learned so much things from them.
I also learned that their physical appearance is changing when they are aging, Granny's also explained to me about that since I've noticed her changes in her face which she called "wrinkles".
Again, there's no such thing to our world, considering there's no age there that we'll use as basis.
When I finished cooking her favorite meal, I've prepared the plates and utensils at the dining table then I called her where she went to kitchen right away. She sat at the front of what I've prepared to her, when I'm about to serve her, she suddenly talked, "Just take your seat there, Asha" then she took the bowl I'm holding and I just followed what she said. I sat in front of her.
"I told you that you don't have to serve me too much, I'm already fine with your help to my farm and cooking for me in your daily basis. I'm just old that's why I can't do anything in the kitchen like cooking and such--" I cut her off. "But you can still harvest in a span of six hours?" I asked her sarcastically.
I really don't get her why she always telling me that she's already weak and old when it comes to cooking but you could see her strengths in the farm. Every twelve o'clock in the afternoon, she already starting to harvest in the farm together with her workers, however, I started to harvest every six o'clock in the morning together with her workers as well.
"C'mon, I just can't really cook already that's why don't ever leave your Granny behind, okay?" I stayed silent. "Unless when you really have to go back to your world" she continued and ate her food, while I stopped and stared at her. I just think if I'm still able to go back or at least a little chance for me to go back?
Right after we ate and washed the dishes, I went to my room right away. I laid myself down to my bed and had a heavy sigh while staring at nowhere.
I can't help myself but to think from what happened last week. I don't want to witness the dying person in front of my eyes and I know that was my fault why he had accident that's why I've got no choice but to save him using my energy.
I admit, I had a second thought if I'm gonna use my energy since I know it needed so much energy just to save a person that hovering between life and death though at the end, I still used it.
I just wanted to take time to think that time because I was so depressed, I'd so much thoughts such as, am I able to go back? or are they still know that I'm over here waiting for them to pick me up? I was so in my deep thoughts that I didn't notice that I was crying already that made the sky to cry too. The rain is just basing how much I will cry.
While I was walking back at home, I saw a man driving his motorcycle but not in normal driving that's why the first thing that came to my mind was the road was slippery because of the rain I unintentionally made and he was having a hard time to drive. I was about to do a way to dry the road using my ability that can stop the time and that way the road may dry somehow and he can drive safely but I was late to do that.
He bumped into a huge tree that not too far from me then I went to him right away, I was so worried that time since he doesn't have any protector to his head which they called a helmet?
It was so dark to that place that's why I didn't get a chance to see his face clearly. I felt his heartbeats as I put my hand to his chest and I was so shocked when it got so slow to beat, I was nonplussed and I decided to save him quickly that night.
That was also the night where my Granny was looking for me for hours because I forgot to inform her that I was going outside, she was used that I'm informing her every time it needed, that's why that night she got so worried as well.
My Granny saw what I did to that man, that's why she called my name right away and so cleared. She supported me to stand up and provide me an umbrella that she was holding, that was also the night where I had a hard time to breathe and my whole body got weak but I didn't say that to Granny because I know she will just get worry to me which I'm avoiding.
We were already far when I looked back to the man and I reassured myself where I saw there was so many people already that helping him. I just hope today that he's really safe.
I informed Granny my reasons why I helped that man, but she just said that it was not fault at all since there's so many drivers out there who are so stubborn in driving even if its pouring so hard.
And now, I'm feeling sleepy as I fixed myself into my bed. I looked to my wide-open window once again where the moon gives its light to my room and I whispered "Good night, my friends" as I smiled.
