Chapter 28: A Little Help from Him

It was a very pleasant day, Mutiara sitting on a chair next to her bed in her room. She regains a little bit of her strength and can walk around with a help of a crutch. She was watching the bird at the tree. "I wonder what's the feeling of being independent..." she hummed but then suddenly, she heard a knock from her door.

Mutiara turns around as the door opens. A tall black-haired man enters the room, for some reason, Mutiara couldn't remember him but he looks very familiar. "His..."

"M-Mutiara!" a familiar but nervous voice called her name. Its been years since she was called by that name. She smiled as she remembered the person whos in front of her. "Brunei!!" she cheered.

Brunei immediately smiled and ran toward her for a hug. "You are safe! I'm glad!" she said while slowly was about to cry. "Yeah, I'm safe...Mutiara I missed- Wait, don't cry!!" he screamed as he saw her wiping her tears away.

When the two finally calm their selves down. Brunei sat awkwardly away from her as if he wasn't used to this kind of situation. "So...how are you feeling, Mutiara?" he asked awkwardly.

"I am slowly feeling better now! Thank you for asking." she said with a smile on her face. The room filled with silence until Brunei farted.

"AAAHHH!!! I'M SORRY!!! I WAS REALLY NERVOUS FACING YOU MUTIARA SINCE I FAILED RESCUING YOU FROM THE BASTARD!!! I'M SORRY!!!!"

Mutiara laughs a little while covering his nose. "Ambaho..." she whispered. "Don't worry!! It's okay!!" she said and after that Brunei stand up and immediately hand over a letter from Indonesia. Mutiara looked at his face who is completely red, he was embarrassed. "Accept it, it's from Indonesia." he said looking away.

Mutiara laughs again, she looked at the letter and nods. She slowly reached her hands not towards the letter but to his hand. "There's nothing wrong about farting..." she said with a smile. Brunei looked at her with a startled expression. "But please don't do it again in a closed area..." she said making the boy die towards his embarrassment.

"Thank you, Brunei." said Mutiara, and smiles after that she took the letter and read it silently.

To my dear Mutiara,

How are you feeling? Are you doing alright? I hope you are, don't you worry about me I'm doing fine. Everyone is doing fine since it was finally over. The East and South-East neighbors finally got away from him. Say, are you mad at him? Please, please Mutiara, please learn how to forgive him. I don't expect you to forgive him in an instant but please, he has reasons. He was just following orders, he was alone for years so please understand him. He didn't want to hurt us, he was hurt too. Oh, how I wish I can visit you right now but I am sure Brunei will. Please don't worry about me and Malaysia, everything will so to be alright! I'm sure we'll meet again but I wish when I meet you, you are finally healed and strong.

Hehe! I love you and take care, I'll trust Brunei will be there!

Your Beautiful Kak,

Indonesia

After reading the letter from Ate Indonesia my heart is pounding with Joy,I look at Brunei whose looking at me with a bright smile

After reading the letter from Indonesia, Mutiara remained silent since memories began to come back to her when she mentioned him. She looked at her right hand where her three fingers are being bandaged because of what he did to her. Mutiara slowly started to feel uncomfortable as she slowly regain her memories of him. "Among the three...he was the worse." she thought as she put her hand towards her mouth.

"I cant hold it..." she muttered but then suddenly she heard Brunei whos looking away.

"So, uhm! Mutiara...!" he called while trying to say something. She tooked a deep breath and smile to hide her trauma. "Yes? What is it, Brunei?" she asked.
