“Orfa-Chan, Are you ready?”
“W-wait a minute, Lilina-Oneechan”
While Lilina-Oneechan called Orfa, that time Orfa still trying to wear Orfa’s white Dress. The dress that looks so cute because they are a lot of frills in the edge of the dress.
If only Exy-Kun in here too….
It is already one month passed since that day. The day when Orfa got kidnapped by a bunch of bad guy. The day when Exy-Kun’s… left Orfa’s side forever.
That day, Exy-Kun trying to save Orfa from the kidnapper but when Orfa run to the outside of the building as the instructions that Exy-Kun’s gave, Exy-Kun got locked alone inside the building and fight with the bad guy. When the time Bard-Jii, Lilina-Oneechan, and Orfa got there, Exy-Kun already….
Ugh! Orfa… Orfa shouldn’t cry… after… after all…
Before Orfa realize it, Tears already pour down from Orfa’s cheek. Orfa doesn’t know how many times Orfa suddenly cried like this whenever she remember about Exy-Kun.
After that tragedy, Orfa locked herself in her room and didn’t came outside for more than a week. Just sat in the Exy-Kun’s bed and hug the dress that Exy-Kun’s bought for Orfa.
“Don’t Worry… Its already Fine now… Orfa-Chan”
Every time Orfa remember what Exy-Kun said to her in the last time, Orfa always remember the smile that Exy-Kun’s had that time. Exy-Kun Caressed Orfa’s hair with his warm hand. Exy-Kun calmed Orfa down when Orfa scared so much about the condition. Yet… even though Orfa knew Exy-Kun’s is also Scared too that time, Exy-Kun still give his smiled to Orfa and protected Orfa from the bad guy. In the end, the one who must to blamed for Exy-Kun’s death is Orfa, right? But in the contrary, Lilina-Oneechan and Bard-Jii didn’t blamed Orfa and just Hugged Orfa tightly until Orfa stopped Crying. The next day, even Lilina-Oneechan made Orfa’s favorite food, Apuru Soup.

Even Lilina-Oneechan didn’t realized it herself, Orfa always found that sometimes Lilina-Oneechan dazed and sighed. Last night too, when everyone already slept… Lilina-Oneechan Cried alone after prepared Orfa’s dress and called Exy-Kun’s name several times. Sorry… Sorry… Exy-Kun… I’m so sorry… said Lilina-Oneechan repeatedly along the night until dawn come.
“Orfa-Chan?”
“Ah! I’m ready Lilina-Oneechan”
After Lilina-Oneechan called Orfa’s name several times, finally Orfa come back from her deep thought and answer Lilina-Oneechan called.
This day is Orfa’s Birthday and Exy-Kun’s birthday. Both of us will turn 8 years old and become independent after leave the orphanage but… now is only Orfa that will become independent.
“Orfa-Chan! Happy Birthday!”
“Orfa-Chan… come to my place every time you want, I’ll give you candy”
“Lilina-Oneechan… Bard-Jii… Thank you”
After Lilina-Oneechan and Bard-Jii congratulate Orfa for her birthday, once again tears appear in Orfa’s eyes. Maybe because Lilina-Oneechan saw it, Lilina-Oneechan hug Orfa tightly until Orfa can hear Lilina-Oneechan heartbeat. Bard-Jii too caressed Orfa’s hair gently.
Exy-Kun… did you see Orfa from there? Please… Orfa want too meet you again Exy-Kun….
After that, the party started from morning until afternoon. Of course Orfa as the star of the party got a lot of congratulation from Orfa’s friend in the orphanage. Even so… Orfa still feel sad because Exy-Kun isn’t here to give his congratulation to Orfa.
After Bard-Jii left the Orphanage, Orfa said that Orfa want Bard-Jii to bring Orfa to Exy-Kun’s graveyard. After Bard-Jii give her confirmation, Orfa go with Bard-Jii to the country’s cemetery, Haven Park.
The graveyard itself is surrounded by a purple trees with the Purple rock that radiated purple light in the night time. Not just that, there is a purple fireflies that live in here and active when the night comes. In the way to the Exy-Kun’s grave, the purple flowers dancing in the air after the breeze carried them. Really… a very beautiful sight.

“I’ll wait here, Orfa-Chan”
“Thank you, Bard-Jii”
After Orfa arrived in front of Exy-Kun’s grave, Orfa told Exy-Kun everything happen after Exy-Kun’s death. About Orfa’s sadness. About Lilina-Oneechan who sometimes crying the whole night. About Bard-Jii who feel guilty because he didn’t have a chance to teach Exy-Kun’s about his sword style. About Orfa and Exy-Kun’s birthday. Everything. Orfa told all of its in front of Exy-Kun’s grave.
“Please… Exy-Kun… Orfa want to meet Exy-Kun’s again”
“…”
Of course there is no answer from Exy-Kun.
After Orfa finished told everything in front of Exy-Kun’s graveyard, Orfa come back to the orphanage.
After Orfa come-back, Lilina-Oneechan and the other child already finished their dinner.
“Lilina-Oneechan, Orfa is back”
“Welcome back… Orfa-Chan, Are you alright?”
“Um! Don’t worry Lilina-Oneechan…”
While Orfa go to her room to prepare her belonging for tomorrow move on to the inn that Lilina-Oneechan already ranted in for Orfa stayed for one month, Lilina-Oneechan called Orfa’s name and said that she want to talk to Orfa after another orphanage child go to sleep.
When Orfa finished her preparation for tomorrow, Orfa go to the Lilina-Oneechan’s room. After knocked several time, Lilina-Oneechan tell Orfa to come in.
“What happen Lilina-Oneechan?”
“Are you finished your preparation, Orfa-Chan?”
“Um! Just a moment ago… what’s wrong?”
“I want to give you something before you move on Orfa-Chan”
After say that, Lilina-Oneechan pick a book from her drawer. There are 5 blue books in total. Wondering what is the content of the book, Orfa ask Lilina-Oneechan directly.
“What is that book, Lilina-oneechan?”
“It is Exy-Kun’s diary, Orfa-Chan”
“Exy-Kun’s!”
After hear that, suddenly Orfa has a urge to take the book in Lilina-Oneechan’s hand and open it by herself but,
“I don’t even know what Exy-Kun’s right in his diary”
“What… Lilina-Oneechan’s mean?”
“The word and the language itself is too different from the word that I teach you and Exy-Kun back then”
Word? Language? Different?
When Orfa wondering about that, Lilina-Oneechan offered a blue book with the title “Exypno Agori’s Diary - 3 years old”. Just from the title, Orfa already know the content of the book is about Exy-kun when he is still 3 years old. But as Lilina-Oneechan said, the content in the book is too different from what Lilina-Oneechan teach us. Only the first page that Orfa can understand because it looks like an alphabetic chart with the character after the symbol of “=”.
Maybe it is really an alphabetic chart? But from where Exy-Kun learn about that? Wait… if Orfa think about Exy-Kun, Orfa already know that Exy-Kun is very smart… maybe…
Exy-Kun didn’t want anyone to read his diary, that’s Orfa conclusion. After all, Orfa didn’t want another people including Exy-Kun to read her diary. But at this moment it is already too late. After all, Orfa already curious about what Exy-Kun’s write in there. Even it is a not good attitude, but… Orfa want to know the side of Exy-Kun that her didn’t know. That’s why—
“Can Orfa take Exy-kun’s diary, Lilina-Oneechan?”
“Are you sure, Orfa-Chan? I didn’t even know what Exy-Kun’s write in there you know”
“Don’t worry, Orfa will find what Exy-Kun’s write in there”
“Then, Keep it with you Orfa-Chan, maybe Exy-Kun’s hope for you to keep it with you”
“Thank you, Lilina-Oneechan”
—No matter what happen, Orfa really want to know the side of Exy-Kun that Orfa didn’t know.
