Mrs. Anne let go of her arms to Axel, she was surprised to see Axel crying a little earlier in Mrs. Anne's arms. "Why are you crying, Axel?" Mrs. Anne asked in surprise, gently wiping away Axel's tears. Axel shook his head. "I'm just sad, I've found a mother as my biological mother. But I can't call her my mother anymore," Axel replied softly, Mrs. Anne was sorry to hear Axel's words, which were able to touch her heart. "Don't be sad, I told you before. I will always be by your side, whenever you need me, I will always be able to help as much as I can," replied Mrs. Anne in a hoarse voice holding back her tears. Axel nodded in understanding, hearing the answer from Mrs. Anne. "But I want to live here with you," Axel said again, making Mrs. Anne shake her head, hearing the request of her youngest son that she could not comply with. "But you are already at the stall with Mr. Jeff, you are still there, just playing here," replied Mrs. Anne, but Axel shook his head firmly rejecting Mrs. Anne's words. "I want to stay here, so I can help you in the fields. I'm sorry to see you're always alone in the fields, later if you're with me, you definitely won't get tired," Axel replied firmly and quickly, looking at Mrs. Anne to agree this time. "But you also work at Mr. Jeff's stall, don't push yourself too hard to help me. You'll get sick because you work too hard," the mother scolded, looking at her youngest child softly. But she was a little proud of Axel, who was very devoted to his mother even though she refused Axel to act as her son. "I don't have a problem, or maybe I can resign from Mr. Jeff's stall. I will still help you in the fields, I have to help you!" Axel's firmness seemed as if he couldn't be bothered anymore, while Mrs. Anne, who heard Axel's very firm words, couldn't refuse anymore. "Okay, I'll just go with what you say. This time I'll give you the freedom to do this, as long as you take the risk yourself, okay?" Mrs. Anne stared at Axel sharply, while Axel nodded firmly, not afraid of Mrs. Anne's words. "Does that mean I can stay here?" Asked Axel to make sure Mrs. Anne agreed to Axel live with her, because this was the only way for Axel to be close to Mrs. Anne. Even though Mrs. Anne refused to activate as a child, the point is that Axel being able to be close and continue to be with Mrs. Anne is also very enough. Now Mrs. Anne nodded her head without hesitation. "Yes, I permitted you to stay here. As long as you tell Mr. Jeff first. So now you go home and talk to him," said Mrs. Anne, making Axel widen his eyes happily. "Yeah!" Axel cheered happily, finally, Axel can get closer to Mrs. Anne. He will be happy, and very comfortable in that house. "Okay, then I'll go back to the stalls now, okay, ma'am?" Mrs. Anne looked at Axel in shock and saw Axel he was going to say goodbye right now, even though it had not been a minute since Mrs. Anne said that. "Now? Don't you want to eat here first?" Mrs. Anne offered but Axel refused. "No need, I'm taking you home now. Afraid it'll get late, I'll also go home alone," Axel replied while shaking Mrs. Anne's hand gently. Mrs. Anne nodded, and she escorted Axel to the kick of her house door. "Be careful on the road, don't forget to pray!" Mrs. Anne's message was answered by Axel's nod. Axel immediately left in front of Mrs. Anne's house, Mrs. Anne looked at Axel's departure with sadness. "Finally I can meet my son," thought Mrs. Anne, until Axel completely disappeared from her sight before Mrs. Anne returned to the house, and cleaned herself up before finally resting. ** Axel quickly arrived at Mr. Jeff's stall, because it was also not too far from his mother's house to Mr. Jeff's house. You see Mr. Jeff waiting for Axel's presence on the terrace of the house, Axel shakes Mr. Jeff's hand, before taking a seat beside him. "Where have you been until this late when you came home?" Asked Mr. Jeff with a firm face, looking at Axel sharply. "I had urgent business earlier, and I also have something I want to talk to you about," Axel replied, looking at Mr. Jeff who was still staring at Axel with a sharp and fierce look. Mr. Jeff frowned. "What are you talking about? Just say it!" Mr. Jeff changed his sitting position to look relaxed, but his face did not look relaxed. With a frown, and no other expression on Mr. Jeff's face. "I want to resign from this stall." Mr. Jeff was surprised to hear Axel's words, he was looking straight into Axel's eyes now. "Why do you suddenly want to resign? Aren't you happy working here, or are you already bored?" Asked Mr. Jeff with an astonished face, he had been working with Axel for a long time. But now Axel asked to resign. "I can't work here, instead I'm happy because Mr. Jeff has accepted me to work here," Axel replied, pausing his words. "Then why did you ask to resign, try to give a little reason," continued Mr. Jeff, who still did not understand. Axel nodded firmly. "I'm going to help my mother in the village, maybe if I still work here I'm sorry to see my mother working alone there," Axel alibi. He didn't want to mention what his mother worked for and who he worked for, for fear that Mr. Jeff would find out. Mr. Jeff nodded his head, hearing Axel's reasoning. "Why did you even resign? You can help your mother after working from here," Mr. Jeff replied again, but Axel shook his head again. "You can't, sir because you also work in the fields. The work is hard there, if I help, maybe you will finish in the fields in a hurry," Axel replied "Are you going to resign from this stall? Think about it carefully," said Mr. Jeff, considering Axel to make that decision. But Axel still nodded firmly, there was no doubt in his mind. "My decision is clear, Mr. Jeff, I will resign from here. Before that, I apologize if I have wronged Mr. Jeff. And thank you because Mr. Jeff has accepted me to work here." Axel smiled, he was about to leave Mr. Jeff's stall just to be with Mrs. Anne.
