The Babysitter Belongs to the Duda
Patchouly


Arnold played around the park near Kindergarten school, his two brothers were alone. Nadia or Mama Anisa would accompany but firmly Arnold refused. He has a certain mission so no one wants to follow him, especially his parents or family. Nadia and Mama Anisa are certainly worried but Arnold's witty assures them.


"Mother, grandma... Don't worry about this handsome Arnold huh. Arnold's on a certain mission no one else should know about. Anyway this Arnold superhero is going to be fine because I have the power to fight all sorts of evil. So please... Let Arnold meditate alone" Arnold said, blinking his eyes repeatedly.


Finally, because they could not bear to see Arnold's faith, both gave permission for Arnold to leave. But the two of them certainly gave some messages to the little boy.


"But if there are bad people or who you suspect, you must run to a crowded place so that there are people who do not" said Nadia.


Arnold nodded his head in understanding and finally here he was. The park is directly opposite the Kindergarten who was once his two brothers went to school. Even next to it is also a PAUD place.


"Huh... Nilam where the hell is it? Geez, just one year ago I have missed him" Arnold muttered while looking at the Kindergarten building.


Arnold is here because a mission is to find Nilam's existence. Actually not Nilamnya who disappeared, but since the mother was in a coma at that time, Arnold also rarely accompanied his two brothers to school to make him not meet with Nilam.


Arnold continued to focus on looking at the Kindergarten building hoping that Nilam would be there. But when all the students came out, there was no Patchouli among them. His hopes were dashed until he decided to go home. When he stood up and looked once again at the school area, he was suddenly surprised to see someone very similar to the person he was looking for.


The little girl with two-pointed hair with pink ties was seen looking at the surrounding road. It seemed like he was preparing to cross the street, but Arnold was confused when he saw it. Nilam used to be accompanied by a babysitter while accompanying her sister to school but now she is seen alone without adult supervision.


With his initiative, Arnold walked towards the street to meet Nilam. After crossing the road Nilam is located, it is clear that what he saw was the girl he was looking for. Even Nilam who had not managed to cross the road had already looked towards him and smiled happily. So happy, Nilam ran across the street without looking right left.


"Nilam, watch out.." cried Arnold.


Some residents who heard Arnold's screams of course immediately diverted his attention. But Nilam who was very happy because he met Arnold did not care at all about his screams. Arnold who was worried about Nilam why-not because from a fairly close distance there will be a motorcycle that passed by was brave to run straight to the middle of the road. He pulled Nilam fast to make him avoid collision.


Everyone who saw the incident could only sigh in relief. They did not expect that such a brave little boy would save his friend.


"Other times if you want to cross the road be careful, son. Ask for help from adults to cross the path" said one of the mothers who approached the two little boys.


"Yes, ma'am" said Arnold and Nilam with a sweet smile.


After the mothers left, Arnold immediately took Nilam's hand to go find a seat in the park. After finding an empty seat, the two immediately sat there.


"Nilam, that was the danger you play crossing carelessly. Where there are motorcycles again, tomorrow if you cross you have to wait for Prince Arnold to come to pick you up first" said Arnold slightly reprimanding and rounding the little girl.


"Don't cry, Arnold isn't angry. But next time be careful" he said calmly.


"Yes. Nilam was just happy to see Arnold again. Arnold where is it? Kok was never seen again at school" asked Nilam while wiping tears that suddenly fell on both cheeks.


"Arold is busy at work. A few days ago Arnold was on payday" Arnold replied proudly.


Nilam who heard Arnold's reply applauded cheerfully, this made the boy display his face. Even Arnold just took the money in his pocket and then gave a sheet of money to Nilam. Nilam who saw it certainly immediately looked at Arnold with a confused look.


"It's living money for you. Use this for a one-month snack" Arnold said with a smile.


He had heard his father give money to his mother who was given the name of living so he immediately imitated and practiced it on Nilam. Nilam accepted it with a big smile and then noticed the money in his hand.


"This is enough for a one-month snack, Arnold" Nilam protested to Arnold by blabbing his irritated lips.


"You should be grateful. There are still many people out there who do not even get money at all for snacks" said Arnold wisely made Nilam just nod his head resigned.


The money given by Arnold is one sheet of money with a nominal of two thousand. Nilam thinks realistically if given 2 thousand dollars for a one-month snack, of course, the innocent girl is confused about what to do. It was likely that only candy could be bought for the next month.


"Let's get Arnold to take Nilam home" Arnold said.


Arnold wanted to know where the location of Nilam's house could later make him not confused looking for the girl. Holding Nilam's hand together, the two walked excitedly. Even the faces of the two were very cheerful as if they missed as long as they had been channeled.


"Where's Arnold school?" ask Nilam while walking beside Arnold.


"Arnold didn't go to school. Arnold is working, the proof is I can give you money" Arnold replied casually.


Nilam could only scratch his non-itchy nape. Because he was confused by Arnold's words that sometimes he could not understand with this small brain. Arnold was like an adult. Indeed, the boy has been matured by the circumstances when his mother was in a coma and had to keep his sister and her two brothers while the father was busy with his affairs.


Without responding to Arnold's words, the two fell silent with their own thoughts. Shortly, Nilam showed a 2-story house that was not far from the PAUD place. Both of them just went into the house after it was opened by the security guard.
