Papa, in anger, kept his feet up to me at the dinner table.
"Sasa!" call Papaku.
I deliberately kept silent and did not respond.
"Sasa!" My father called again.
"Hmmm," I replied as I chewed the food.
Papa got closer, and approached me. Papa kicked down the dining table.
Braaakkis....
"You want what?" tanya Papa uses a high tone.
"It's Pa, you can have a good conversation" said Mama.
I still casually feed food into my mouth, while listening to them.
"Your son is outrageous, he doesn't know if the client was very important to Papa's company!" said Papa.
"Sasa, you didn't hear Papa's words?" ask Papaku.
I looked at my angry face. His eyes glare.
I also stood looking at my father.
"Have you spoken?" my many.
"Basic, kid doesn't know manners!" papa said as he raised his hand to slap me, but he managed to hold it.
I spontaneously covered my face with my arms.
"Papa," Shouted Mama.
My aunt came up to me and hugged me.
"It's mister" said Bibi.
I looked towards Papa.
"What's asking about manners? do you remember when Papa taught me manners ha!" I said in a high tone.
I don't feel my tears even dripping. I saw my papa turning his face away.
"It's Pa, sit down first" said Mama while stroking my Papa's back.
I hugged Bi Asih with tears in my eyes.
"Patience Non, not good against parents," Aunt advised me.
Mama approached me.
"Sasa, what's the matter? why did you suddenly tell Papa to come home and talk like that?" ask Mama.
Mama stroked my head, and I immediately saw my mother.
"Ma, I dream Papa's business is on fire and there I see Papa dead roasted in the flames" I said.
Papa looked at me immediately.
"Don't listen to him, just now at Papa's business he also made because he said he saw a creature that will burn Papa's business," said Papa.
"I was right to see Ma, believe Sasa," I said as I looked at Mama.
"Darling, that's superstition, you're just hallucinating" Mama replied.
I threw my mother's hand over my head.
"Sasa!" Shouted My Mama.
"Mama is just as rich as Papa, no one wants to listen to me" I said.
"Some times Papa said, it's all superstition, don't make up for you, you want your Papa's business to go bankrupt!" Papaku says.
"I really saw them, but you never listened to me, I'm not your son" I said.
A plaaaaak!
Mama slapped.
"It's Madam," Aunt tried to stop Mama.
"Let Bi, I want them to die, they are happy" I replied.
"What lack of effort do Papa and Mama make happyin you? everything you want us to do" asked Mama.
"Indeed, Mama and Papa always measure my happiness with material things, if I may choose to live as poor people but always with you" I replied
Papa's phone rang, my papa rushed into his shirt pocket.
"Who's Pa?" ask Mama.
"Office Ma," Papa replied as he picked up his phone.
"Hello" said Papa.
I listened to the guy across the phone.
"What?" papa said again this time he looked surprised.
"Okay now I'll be there soon" he replied again.
Papa hung up and looked panicked.
"Why Pa?" ask Mama.
"My life Ma, my efforts," replied Papa hanging.
"Why Pa? don't panic, Mama" asked.
"My life is on fire" replied Papa, dropping his body and sitting on a chair.
I heard Papa's words as soon as I remembered my dream.
"Papa, go there now, Mama accompany Sasa at home only," said Papa ruled.
"Pa, sorry Sasa, I beg you, Papa don't go there now" I said.
I was crying again.
"I don't want to lose Papa, I love Papa" I said.
I stood up and hugged Papa.
"Sasa, Papa also loves you, but Papa has to go there now," said Papa while releasing my arms.
"No, Papa can't go" I said.
"Sasa, don't make Papa angry again!" gertak Papa's.
"Ma, persuade Papa, the incident in my dream has been the fact that Papa's business is burning, I do not want Papa to die as well as in my dream," I said to Mama.
Mama seemed to think for a moment, then looked at me.
"Pa, how about Mama and Sasa come with Papa to Papa's place of business?" ask Mama.
"Okay, hurry up, hunt" replied Papa agreeing.
"I haven't changed my clothes, Ma" I said.
Mama saw.
"Bi, please get Sasa's jacket, please" Mama ordered.
"Okay Madam" replied Bi Asih.
I patted Bi Asih's shoulder while saying, "Ga need Bi, let me take it myself."
"Papa wait outside," said Papa.
I rushed up the stairs to my room. After that, I picked up the jacket that was inside the closet.
I walked back a little run downstairs. The side below me saw Bi Asih.
"Bi, Sasa is leaving, yes" I said as I shook Aunt's hand.
"Yes Non, be careful," replied Auntie.
I left Aunt and went to my mom and dad who were in the car.
"Sir Diman, I live first yes," I said to Mr. Diman who was near the gate.
"Yes Non, be careful" replied Mr. Diman.
I entered the car, and my father drove the car at a moderate speed.
"Have any fire trucks come yet Pa?" ask Mama.
"So the Hamid had called the extinguisher, but Papa didn't know it had come yet" replied Papa.
"Call the other employees" I said briefly.
"Try Mama straight to Hamid's number" Papa ordered.
Mama took Papa's phone and looked for the number she was told.
Tuuuut....
The phone connection was also cut off.
"Ga in Pa's lift," said Mama.
On the streets look dense creeping and jammed.
"Damn! wear everything stuck," said Papa.
Tuuuut...
Mom tried to call back.
This time it was lifted.
"Hello, Hamid," said Mama while loud speaker voice.
"Hello, yes Ma'am," replied Hamid Papa's employee.
"Hows it? has the fire truck arrived?" ask Mama.
"Already Ma'am, but only 2 units of cars and the fire has not been resolved, this is likely to have 4 units of extinguishing cars deployed, but still not arrived" Hamid replied again.
"Oh yes, we are also on the way but this is still stuck, we drop everything to you, you handle everything" said Mama.
"Okay, ma'am" replied Hamid again.
My mom turned off her phone too. In this traffic jam, our car can't move at all.
"A real jam, when is the way," my papa said agitatedly.
"Pa's been patient, there's been Hamid" said Mama.
I who saw the traffic jam was a bit happy. Perhaps in this way, my father's life was helped.
Almost 1 hour we were stuck in traffic, only able to walk again.
"Finally, this stretch is also the way," said Father.
Not so long we arrived at Papa's place of business, there we saw the place of business burned to the ground even barely left. Remains of the building.
Dad rushed down from the car.
"O Allah, my efforts are over" said Papa as he held his head and immediately dropped his body on the ground and rested only on his knees.
My mom and I approached her.
"Pa, who is patient, there are still other efforts, maybe this is not our fortune" I said.
"Bankrut us," said Papa.
My mom and I were trying to calm my dad down. I am grateful that my father is still beside me.
Maybe just now, if papa doesn't come home I don't know what will happen. And one more if we are not stuck in traffic as well, whether the disaster comes at what time.
