Meca and Bimo just looked at each other. They understand the situation of Faris' parents why they decided to stay here. But Faris was too small to know the reason for her parents. Meca believes the problem of why her parents moved near this final garbage dump may be due to an economy that does not meet other needs.
"How long have you been living here?" Bimo asked Faris.
"Since I was 10 years old. I may be 12 years old now. So I live here for 2 years." Obviously Faris.
Bimo responded by nodding his head. So too with Meca.
"Have you ever been to school?" Ask Meca.
"Ever, but only up to 4th grade. Because my parents died when I was about to go to 5th grade." Answer Faris.
"so yeah. You will surely be able to read and write, you must teach your sister so that she can also like you. If you can make your brother's future better." Meca's Advice.
Bimo saw that Meca was very amazed, He could not believe that a person as cute and as much as Meca could be a wise man. Bimo's men can't be as wise as Meca.
"Yes, I taught my sister as much as I could.
I'm sorry to see my sister, she's never felt happiness like me. If I used to be able to go to school and play with my friends, whereas my sister she doesn't have the happiness and fun that little kids her age feel." Obviously Faris as her eyes glazed over.
While his sister still ate the fried rice given by Meca earlier. He did not understand what his brother was saying. It is too small to understand. He was only 5 years old.
Unknowingly Meca began to shed her tears. Meca felt sorry for the two children. He also felt the sadness experienced by Faris and her sister. How not a little boy like Faris and his sister should bear his own life. Even though if children the age of Faris and his sister still need affection from his parents.
Seeing Meca cry Bimo was instantly worried.
"Mec, not papa?" Bimo asked worriedly.
"No papa, brother. I'm just so moved." Meca answered while wiping her tears that had landed on her cheeks.
"Faris, surely your parents are proud of you. You are a good brother and understanding to your sister. Brother is sure if you grow up later, you can be a successful person. Because Brother is sure you're a good, hardworking person." Meca said as her eyes glazed over.
"Aminn Brother. I also believe Kok Kak, if Brother will also succeed in the future. Because I'm sure Big Brother is a good man." Faris said to Meca.
"Sister wasn't brought up...." Canda Bimo on Faris.
"Hehehe. May you also be successful in the future." Faris said with a laugh.
Bimo also laughed while gently stroking Faris' head. So too with Meca.
Faris' sister just stared flatly at these three people who were laughing. Because He did not know what these three men were laughing at.
Trings.tring.....
Suddenly my phone rang. Signs someone is calling Meca.
He opened his phone and it turned out that the one who called him was his mother.
Meca lifted it up.
Meca: Hello Ma'am.
Mother: Where are you going? It's 9pm, but you haven't come home yet. You're doing all right?
Meca: I'm not papa. This is me going home.
Mother: Thank goodness then. I'm worried about knowing you. Yes, I went home. Be careful when you get home.
Meca : Yes Ma....
Then Meca and her mother's call ended.
Meca forgot it was late at night. His mother was always worried about Meca because Meca was a girl. Her mother worries that Meca will meet a bad man while Meca is on the street.
Therefore, Meca's mother always called Meca if Meca left the house too long or came home not in the same hours as usual.
