Anjani Darling
Friends of Anjani

Brucks. Someone hit me. Or rather I hit it until it fell. My hands hurt enough to hold my body.

"You okay?" he asked, extending his hand.

"Sister Philip?" I smiled with relief when I saw the boy in front of me. It's Philip's brother. I finally get to meet him again. "Sister, I didn't think we could see each other again."

"Anjani, my house is right next to the orphanage where you live. So whenever we can plan."

"really? I don't think you're the one who came from here,"

"Why can you say that?"

I pointed at Philip's pair of blue eyes. Different from most of the people's eyes here.

"You too" he pointed to my brown eyes.

"My eyes are like my father's eyes" I told him about a pair of brown eyes like that of a father who came from a Dutch father, while his mother was a native Indonesian.

"This blue eye is also a legacy of my father. He was of Filipino descent, but was born and raised in Paris. Still working in Paris." Philip told me about his father's origins.

We have a lot in common about Dad. Your eyes are both father's. Our parents' meeting was almost the same. My father and brother Philip were both on vacation in Bali, then met with my mother. Love at first sight makes them decide to get married.

"But now I'm not with my father, just living alone with my mother" Philip recounted his current condition.

"Where is Philip's father?" my many.

"In Paris. I live and work there,"

"Why don't you live together?"

"Can't be Anjani. My father and mother are separated." brother Philip told me that since he was five years old he had been abandoned by his father who decided to return to Paris because he could not live here. "At least you're luckier Anjani, two years longer with your father."

"Then what should I do?"

"Don't give up easily. You must be strong. Don't cry if you still want to see your mom and dad. Before you meet your parents, I'll protect you. I'll be your friend."

Philip's words I remember. From this day on, in addition to being my guardian angel, Brother Philip has also become my only friend.

"Anjani, now you have to go back to school so you don't get the next problem" Philip said.

We both headed to the same school because Philip was sixth grade in Elementary School while I was only first grade. Although I can't accept everything yet, but I can relax a little because I now have a friend, brother Philip.

The bell of the sign home has rung, I immediately tidied up the study equipment. I can't wait to see Aunt Desi. He has promised to give me a reward if I get a hundred and today I succeeded. A hundred for math.

At the classroom door, someone confronted me. He invited the other child to come out, then forced me in, followed by two friends.

"Little boy, I want to talk to you!" said.

"My name is Anjani, brother." I said.

"Sister? Hey, I'm not your brother. I'm Mega." he said in an arrogant style.

"Oh, Mega."

"I don't care what your name is. I just wanted to tell you, don't go near Philip because he should only be friends of his level. You understand!"

"Sister Philip doesn't mind being friends with me. He said it himself."

"You're a nursing home, right? Diana said you were dumped by your parents. How could you dare to be friends with him? You should have known yourself. Do you know who Philip is? He's from a distinguished family, just like my family. The rich can only be friends with the rich. Understood!"

"You don't want to confess when you're obviously living in a home. Actually I'm lazy to talk to discarded kids like you. But I have to do it so you understand!"

"Whatever you say, I want to go home."

"Hey wait a minute. How dare you leave when I haven't finished talking!"

"I'm hustling. I have to show this to Aunt Desi!"

"Hey what is this?" Mega snatched my paper. "You're proud to get perfect grades. Do you think the value of a hundred of your lives will change? Nah! You will forever be in the lower caste!"

"Give me my paper!"

"If I don't want to?" suddenly Mega ran out of class followed by two friends.

"My paper!" I'm chasing them.

Mega and her friends were far ahead of me. But I don't want to give up, keep chasing after all my might. Suddenly Mega did something that made me very angry.

"My paper," I immediately limp to see the paper drifting in the small times that were on the side of the road. Aunt Desi hasn't seen it, but it's been dumped.

"Hahaha, look at that outcast, you want to cry? Let's cry ... cry baby whiny!" mega Eject.

"Who wants to cry? I'm not a crybaby!" actually I was very disappointed, but remember the words of brother Philip not to give up easily. I have to be strong.

"Anjani!" I just thought about it, now that Brother Philip is behind me.

"Sister!" call me. "Sister, are these kids brother's friends? Look what they did to me. They threw my paper back to my feet!" I complained about Mega and her friends.

"Hey don't just talk. That's not true Philip. We were just having fun. Are you friends?" Mega looked awkward to see the arrival of brother Philip. He did not expect that Philip's brother would come and see for himself his evil deeds.

"You don't lie Mega." brother Philip looked at the feet, looked paper replay I sudqh wet, began to drift carried away by a stream of water that is not too heavy. "Now you also take a paper replay Anjani. Tomorrow morning the paper should be as it was or I'll teach you a lesson!"

Hearing the threat of brother Philip, Mega and his two friends seemed to be in the fog. They immediately pushed each other until the three of them splashed in times.

"Aaaaaaa .. I'm wet!" scream Mega.

"See Anjani, they've got the stone!" brother Philip smiled amusedly.

"Philip help me!" call Mega.

"Do what I said! Remember, tomorrow the paper must be as it was!" brother Philip took me away, while Mega and his two friends were excited by the conditions in the moment.

As Philip and I turned around, we saw Brother Zein standing not far from us. So he saw me but didn't help me? Turns out I misjudged Brother Zein, he wasn't really as good as I thought he was.

"Hey Zein, don't you want to go home?" greet brother Philip as he passed leaving brother Zein who was still standing still staring.

"Why didn't he say anything?" my cetus.

"Who? Zein?"

"Yes,"

"He was, always cold. But Zein's actually good,"

"So he was there but he didn't help me."

"It's okay, what matters is that I help you!"
