Novel & Cerita Suwa Orange

“You’ve met him?” Chan asked, “Who?” Grandma Su chuckled. “Your sun man?” Chan licked her lips. Because she couldn’t utter the word, she nodded instead. “Ah…” Grandma Su’s eyes twinkled. “He is big and handsome?” Again, Chan nodded. “And kind and warm, just like the sun?” Chan nodded at that as well. It was then Dara and Soriya returned, delighted with their picks of the day. “Look at these,” Soriya said, showing them her ice cream box filled to the rim with plump, ripe strawberries. “They’re delicious, Grandma Su. How did you grow them like that? Even the ones in the supermarket aren’t as big and sweet as these.”

Following Miaomiao's finger, Su saw the fruit hanging on the tree as well. "Why does this fruit look like..."

I wasn’t in the mood to tell her long stories and I didn’t think she would understand anyway. I began peeling the orange. When I took a bite, I was surprised. The taste of the orange was very fresh. “Where did you get this from?” I asked with a raised brow. “I went out early to get the freshest ones,” Crystal said proudly. “The stall owner said it was transported from the land of House Fox yesterday. I paused as I felt my throat start to tighten. “Are we close to them then?” I asked. “I suppose so,” she said. “The stall owner said it was only a day’s journey from the Fox’s land.”

She furrowed her brows at him. “It would just be an orange for the flavor. It would taste fine. Come on,” Wayne nudged at her and she rolled her eyes before picking a small orange. She peeled it while he washed the fruits. They both cut them together before blending them in two batches, which included the one she had cut before he came. They poured the drink in two long glasses and added ice and straw. They both took a drag from it at the same time and Olive moaned while Wayne just nodded. It tasted good.

A man behind the counter looked up, offering us a warm smile. "Good afternoon, folks!" he greeted us cheerfully, wiping down the polished surface. He immediately started listing options for us. "Welcome. We have a wide variety of fresh, organic juice squeezed right here on the spot. We've got classic orange, crisp apple, fresh watermelon, sweet mango, pure chilled coconut water and a few specialized tropical blends." Before we could say anything else, he leaned forward a bit with a knowing grin. "But honestly? Everybody’s been loving the orange juice today. It’s our specialty of the house, perfectly sweet. You two should definitely try it out."

It was the blue color as the sun in her dreams. June thought to herself the signal is already being sent. She put her hand in her pocket. Felt something small and round. She pulled it out. It was an orange, a real orange that was fresh. She looked at the soldier. Said, where did this orange come from because there are no trees anywhere in the world. The soldier looked at the orange. His eyes got really wide. He said, this is impossible nothing can grow in all the ash that's everywhere. June looked back at the tower. The blue light was getting brighter it was pulsing like a heartbeat.

Confidently, Patrick shared a smile, revealing a set of perfectly aligned teeth. “You find it hard to believe? ‘Super Orange’ is a recent research project at our academy. When the day comes and ‘Super Orange’ is successful, I'll be the first to send one to you so you can witness this miracle.” Luna was inspired by Patrick’s confidence. Yes, she shouldn't forget that the boy before her was a talented individual from a research academy. Luna also found Patrick intriguing. “Alright, I'll get a tub to gather them,” Luna agreed, smiling.
