"Good indeed. You do not have to waste time and money on your S2 college. Mending you looking for a job now. My skincare has been exhausted a lot. Remember, you can't eat until you get a job. You remember that!"

After hearing his aunt's words–Fatin rushed to the room.

“Fatin, welcome to enter the room yes, Bi,” no reply, the girl decided to enter the room.

Fatin immediately clean body after a day outside. After finishing the ritual before going to bed, the girl in black pajamas laid her body on the bed with a diary book in her hand.

His gaze led to the sky of the room sky. His mind soared in the last few years when his parents were still there.

“Abi! catch!” a girl in a pastel Muslim dress with a matching veil threw a basketball at her father. The face of the little girl was very happy.

“Yah... Why not get caught anyway, Bi?” his thoughts changed drastically.

While a grown man was sitting limp on the edge. “Already, already, already. We end the game, right? Abi is very tired, Fatin,” he said with both hands back as a body support. The fatigue was so deep within him.

“Well, how do you hope again? This will again be exciting,” Fatin pouted.

Tiba arrives someone out with a few snacks and fruits as well as the most soothing smile of all time.

“Fatin,” call it soft.

“Yes already? Kasian dong Abi was tired like that. You guys have been playing for a long time from the ashar and now you want maghrib. Let's end the game? Tomorrow you can, huh?” Umi Rayu.

Fatin does not respond. His hand he folded in front of his chest and the look on his pouting face had not disappeared either.

Umi chuckles. “See what Umi brought? Tara! Umi bring her favorite fruit, Fatin.”

There was no answer from the little girl who was sulking. Surely umi is not out of her mind, she knows the most powerful way to persuade her little daughter.

Umi turned to Abi for permission and got a nod and smile from abi.

Umi's closing in on Fatin. “Why do we go to the zoo later this weekend?” the most powerful seduction there is to go on a trip.

Fatin quickly turned his head, his eyes sparkling with pleasure. “Come! Umi promise yes?” he said with great enthusiasm. The little girl raised her tiny little finger as a sign of a promise with Uminya.

“If only Umi and Abi still exist now—

Fatin immediately shook his head. Returns the mind to the present.

“Astagfirullah! If it is not good, Fatin,” the girl hit her mouth small and said a word of gratitude many times because it is still given extraordinary pleasure by the above.

Fatin corrected his position to sit, he saw the date and was surprised. Because tomorrow is the time to send money to her grandmother.

Yes, Fatin has special savings for his beloved grandmother. He always put money aside for his grandmother.

Fatin doesn't always say all the money he's got. The girl would only say 60% of the money she had on Neni and her 40% for grandmother's savings and for emergency money.

Because if he said everything, then the money would be taken out and he could not give grandma the money.

A good idea came to his mind.

“What if this month's money is not delivered? I haven't seen Grandma in a long time. I am always busy in college and before I get busy I better visit for a while. Missed it,” he said.

Soon the girl blocked the phone on the nightstand and called someone for help. If not Fatih–who else he will ask for help.

Fatin will have Fatih drive her to grandma's house, count the holidays. Kan, grandma's house is near the beach.

The girl in black pajamas chuckled happily.

***

Fatih is no stranger to the Fatin family. Because their father and abi were friends for a long time and when they were little neighbors became very close.

“Nothing is left?” ask Fatih to make sure.

Fatin nodded. He checked his backpack three times and everything was safe.

“Oke, we're leaving. Bismilbornohmanirohim,”

The journey to the village takes about 3 to 4 hours. Not too far away, not too close.

Fatin is very happy. Finally after a long time, he will complete the longing that always rolls in his heart.

“Bang, you still remember not when we fishing with Dad and Abi?” fatin asked in a slightly loud voice to be heard by Fatih.

“Which one?”

“The time we spilled the fish in that bucket. Trouble Dad and Abi fishing, but when we have a lot of instead let go back to the pool,” Fatin laughs remembering those memories.

“Oh yes I remember. After that we were punished together, right? Yeah, I remember. It was funny when I saw Father and Abi's expression. You are naughty,” Fatih blames Fatin.

“Dih, it's brother's idea. The brother that Fatin is taking, Wlee. Means naughty brother dong,” only with Fatih his childish nature comes out. Only with Fatih did he feel safe.

Fatih laughs. Actually yes. Fatih's childhood was a bad influence on Fatin. Because always invite Fatin in the crazy things that come to his mind. And, Fatin must accept a punishment that even he is innocent of.

It was the most beautiful memory for both of them.

***

A long journey is finally over.

Fatin got off the bike straight away, kept his backpack in the front seat of the house and ran looking for his grandmother into the house.

His grandmother was sleeping with his little grandson.

“Grandmother!” fatin exclaimed and immediately rushed to hug the body of his grandmother who was not as fit as before.

Grandma was surprised by the presence of Fatin who arrived.

“Yes, Fatin...” Grandma is so happy this long-time granddaughter has finally come to visit.

“Nek, Fatin kangen,” his embrace is getting tight.

Grandma patted Fatin's back several times. “Astagfirullah, Fatin. Granny can't breathe this, please let go, son,”

Fatin released a hug and chuckled. “Sorry, Mother. Eventually, Fatin misses Grandma,”

Grandma looked at Fatin very fixedly and a calm smile. Grandma then rubbed Fatin's head and tidied the girl's bangs that she always considered small in front of her.

“Grandma misses you too. It's been a long time Grandma hasn't seen you, son. Is your life in the city okay?”

Fatin fell silent. True, this question is highly expected. But, for this time Fatin was at a loss to answer. If you answer ‘ya’ means he is lying. However, if he answers ‘not’ he does not want to make his grandmother worried.

From the face of Fatin. It was clear what had happened in his grandson's life. Grandma already knew the answer without having to answer.

“It's okay. Life is like that. No life is always happy. But, remember if there is difficulty there must be ease,” Grandma pulled back Ftin to get into his arms.

Suddenly Fatin's eyes felt hot.
