Mama

"Mama ..." said an adorable voice that is owned by a little girl with light-brown skin and about 3 years old, with her big dark brown eyes, she is looking at an adult woman who is 5 meters away in front of her, the woman is the one who was called by the little girl as 'mama', she is standing with her back to her.

The adult woman is standing by the window with a body language that showed that she is very anxious and worried about something, the gaze from her dark brown eyes focused on something outside this house, while the little girl is standing with a boy who is about 5 years older than her, the palm of her right hand is being held by the boy.

The little girl then turned to the boy, the boy looks very scared, felt anxious, and looks very worried about something, his two hands even start trembling and making the little girl's right hand is trembling as well because it is being held by him.

The two people with her in this house seem to be feeling the same thing, but the little black-haired girl doesn't understand what is going on, and she decided to remain silent while looking back at her mother.

"Oh, no," whispered the little girl's mother in a trembling voice, she then closed her mouth slowly with her trembling right hand, the woman tried to hold back her tears, but in the end, her tears still dripped too.

"What happen, Aunt?" asked the boy in a very low and trembling voice, his fear grew after hearing what the woman said earlier, and he also started to shed tears, he and the woman both are trying not to cry loudly now.

After hearing the boy's question, the little girl's mother then approached the two of them while wiping her tears, she then squatted in front of her daughter who doesn't understand the current situation.

"Rebekah, listen to me, my dear, from now on, whatever happens, don't ever be separated from Tim, you always have to be with him, you understand, right?" she gave a message to her daughter in a very low voice, the little girl then just nodded her head in response that she did understand.

"You're a smart girl," the woman complimented her afterward.

"Tim," she continued, this time she's talking to the boy. "Go with Rebekah, go as far as you can with her, never be separated from her, and please promise me that you will protect her at any time," she said to the boy, still in a very low voice.

"I promise, but what happened, Aunt? Why did you suddenly cry? And where are Theodore and my mama? Why haven't they come back? I shouldn't only go with Rebekah, right? But also Theodore, we've talked about this thing many times and I've been finalizing my plan to go with Rebekah and Theodore for a long time ago, I can't go without Theodore," said the boy, his crying starting to stop because the woman also had stopped crying.

"Your mama and your brother have left earlier, you and Rebekah go after them, I will protect you two from here," explained the woman who is about 22 years old.

"My mama has left with Theodore? Why? Shouldn't my mama staying here with you to protect us?" 

"Yes, but-"

Dor! Dor!

While the woman had not finished her words yet, suddenly a loud gunshot sounded and makes the three of them immediately look at the window in startled and panic.
