Finally, Axel arrived in front of his destination village. He looked around the village house with great care. He has plans to find work and temporary housing here. Being in the village where his mother was born made Axel wish he could meet this woman. Or at least with that woman's family. That would make Axel happy. While in his mother's village, Axel will keep his identity a secret. He took a step, tracing the street in front of him. His eyes couldn't take off from looking around him, maybe there was someone who needed employees. This is the first time Axel has gone to a very far and unfamiliar place. "Where else should I go?" muttered Axel when he had walked long enough and far, but had yet to find a job or a place to live. He felt awkward too. But he must be able to fight all the feelings in his heart, he did all this for the sake of Anne, his biological mother. Axel wanted to feel the love of a mother. When he meets his mother later, Axel will take care of her with all his heart. Axel didn't give up easily, even though the hot sun was scorching and making him hot. Axel was looking for a job while asking every corner of the salesmen who passed by. However, no one has given him a job yet. Axel was very tired, he took the initiative to rest before continuing his journey. The place is very crowded. However, somehow it was very difficult for him to get a job. "Where else should I go, huh, now?" muttered Axel, feeling that staying silent would not get anything done, he finally got up from his spot and continued on his way. In that place, Axel met a trader who was supplying vegetables. Lots of times, Axel thought to himself and thought about offering himself as a worker at the place, who knows if he gets a job. “Excuse me, do you have any job openings?” Axel asked hopefully. Axel approached the vegetable seller, trying to find opportunities, maybe he could give Axel a decent job. Whatever form it takes, Axel will try to accept it. The gentlemen turned and looked Axel up and down. He thought he was being screened to determine whether Axel was strong enough to work at the father's place. "Want to work supplying vegetables in this place?" Axel nodded, "Yes sir. That is if you give permission. I'm ready to work.” “Do you have experience working in agriculture or food like this?” asked the man again. He doesn't know why Axel was worried about this question. Is the work very heavy and requires special skills? They chatted a bit about the work the father was doing. Axel began to know that the man's name was Jeff after they met earlier. "It's okay if you want to work here. Does not matter." Mr. Jeff finally accepted Axel. Axel was surprised, and at the same time happy when he heard that the man accepted his offer. Finally, after quite a long search, he was able to work too. “By the way, what work do I have to do? Are there any special conditions?" Mr. Jeff shook his head. "Nothing, if conditions. You have to be prepared to work hard every day. In reality, there's no job that isn't tiring, right?” Axel smiled and nodded confirming the middle-aged man's words, the important thing was now that he was accepted to work in this place. Axel is very grateful because, in the end, he can get a job. This is the first time Axel has gone far to find work alone. But that didn't make Axel give up. The man remains painstaking and also consistent and works. If only Mr. Jeff didn't need additional power, maybe Axel wouldn't be needed. Or maybe Mr. Jeff will only use it once, still seeing the good performance, Mr. Jeff feels satisfied. The man lights up Axel who is working hard. Even though they didn't know each other yet, from the look on his face, it seemed that Mr. Jeff believed that Axel was a good person and could be trusted. Mr. Jeff has never taken his eyes off Axel's work. How satisfying! It's not in vain that Axel is here and wants to help himself. While taking a break to stretch his muscles, Axel was immediately approached by Mr. Jeff with a big smile. Of course that made Axel confused. Don't tell me that Mr. Jeff doesn't like his work. Ah, if that's true, where else should Axel look for money? "What's your name, young man?" asked Mr. Jeff gently. Axel was silent for a while, ok, name? What is her name? I mean, what name should Axel wear? It's also impossible for him to reveal his true identity, right? Here he is looking for his mother's hand, in the sense that Axel has to disguise himself. Yes, Axel will not use his real name and address. No! That could backfire for Axel himself later. "Hi?" call sir when you don't hear a slightly high voice. Axel was surprised by that, the young man blinked several times while looking at Mr. Jeff innocently. “Ah, yes. I'm sorry, sir. I'm not focused," Axel answered nervously. Axel was afraid that Mr. Jeff would be suspicious of him or that Mr. Jeff would fire him because he was considered strange. No! Don't let that happen! "So what's your name?" which is Mr. Jeff once again. “Alex, sir!” I don't know where Axel could think of that one name, ah, never mind with names. The most important thing is that right now no one knows his real identity, the matter of the name is not important. It was clear to Axel that they didn't recognize him. "Oh yes. They have a good job, huh? I hope you feel at home with you," said Mr. Jeff with a faint smile. Axel nodded firmly. Whether he is comfortable or not is a later matter, the twelve of which is that he has to stay here until he meets his mother. Will Axel be able to meet his biological mother someday in this village?
