I remembered back then on how I walked in our street full of snow, I remembered those kids flustering a smile in their lips because of the happiness they're feeling during the winter season. On how people sang their Christmas carol to earn money and spread fascination, on how those happy family hang out together playing with their sons and daughters.
I remembered in that winter season, I was sadly sitting around as I watched people on how they shared hapiness with each other. I remembered on how Mom left us and how I have a dad who can't love me.
I remembered how many times I've shared pain with myself, crying and locking myself in my room.
I remembered when something caught my attention while I walked, I saw a beggar woman, begging for help. She was totally shivering from the cold because she only wear a pair of shirt, my heart was touched when our gazes met, then she suddenly smiled, I didn't know what happened but I accidentaly smiled, too.
"What's your name?" she asked me, looking straight on my eyes which make my eye divert to other gaze. But I was shocked at a moment in her question. Are we close?
"Jeam Robert Niro," I answered without looking at her, wasn't she embarassed? The cold breeze is starting to be stronger that makes that woman, trembled more.
"Niro," he silently said many times, and smiled abruptly, weird. "It's seriously cold in here," she added.
"You can live in our house for a moment-maybe until the winter season end?"
After I said those words to her, a smile curved in her lips and excitedly held my hand, "Let's go!"
We're successfully here in the house now, this is nothing special from the house like other, the wall are painted unproperly, the furnitures are old and the atmosphere is akward.
"I'll cook you soup," I volunteered.
"I'll cook. Just tell me where the ingredients are." I nodded and flashed a smile.

Weeks had passed since I met that woman, she was totally amazing, I can feel her love for me, and my dad didn't come home this week. And I was quite happy for that.
"Do you want anything?" And that week, I felt love for her, too.
"I don't want to," I coldy answered, but everytime I acted cold for her, she just always give me a piece of smile, a weird smile. I was smiling in my heart, knowing that even if I acted bad for her, she still can accept me.
She was the most amazing woman that I've ever met, I loved her even if I can't show her, and she's too old. I don't know, there's something I felt for her since the day I met her.
"OPEN THIS, BASTARD!" My eyes had widen when I heard my dad's voice, why did he come so suddenly?
"Hide," I squirm to the woman, so she did. Then the next thing I did is I opened the door and my dad look at me firmly.
"Why did it took you so long to open the door? Are you hiding something?" He angrily shouted. I shook my head.
"Are you sure?" He was about to punch me when the lady stopped him-I told her to hide.
But my dad looks like shocked.
"M-Marry?" My dad came back to his mind when he saw the lady, she just look furiously to my dad.
