Behind the Eyes of INDIGO
By ourselves...

Alia, the name of a little girl who is only 4 years old and she has a younger sister who is only 2 years old. That afternoon the time had shown at five o'clock in the afternoon, the two parents of Alia namely Bu Mia and Pak Aji were ready with their respective backpacks. Bu Mia also holds her second child, Sita, who is only two years old and she is her sister Alia,

"Same Papa so go?" said a little girl who was just 4 years old, she still did not want her parents to go out of town and leave her with her grandparents.

"Yes dear.you are obedient well," said Ms. Mia lovingly to her eldest child.

"Alia wasn't invited by mom? but why can Sita come?"the answer seemed unwilling

"Darling... Sita is still a child, she can walk so she still can not be left son" said one who suddenly answered Alia's question, Alia,

she is Alia's grandmother, Mbah Imah.

"But Maaa.." took a whine to his mother.

"Honey alone, now you take Mama with Papa to the bus terminal, then you want to snack what Mama buyin okay!?" trying to convince the eldest.

Alia just nodded, she was actually not willing if she had to be left with her grandmother and grandfather.

Their family is not from a family that is located so both parents Alia was forced to go out of town to work to meet their needs.

They left Alia because she had already started entering elementary school, huh! the 4-year-old girl is already in first grade at the elementary school in her village.

He is indeed different from most other children, at the age of 3 years he can even write and draw like a 3rd grade elementary school child.

"Darling you be careful at home huh, don't be naughty, and massage your grandmother" while caressing Alia's hair.

The little girl just nodded silently, she continued to see her mother's father and her sister who had gotten into the big intercity bus. Both her parents waved and smiled at her, Alia kept looking at the bus which was slowly moving away and becoming invisible again.

The next day Alia woke up from her sleep and immediately shouted "Maaa... ma..." rose from her bed looking for her mother.

"Why are you?" tanya Mbah Imah approached her,

"Where's mama mbah?" tanyanya confusion.

"is Mama the same Papa left yesterday afternoon, Alia also took us to the terminal right?"explain to his grandson.

Since then, Alia prefers to be alone in her home. Alia's family already has their own home, but her house is only behind her grandmother's house. So he prefers to play at home alone, because he also does not have friends.

The next day Alia came home from school on foot, she passed a toy store and she saw a very beautiful barbie doll.

"Waaahhh is so beautiful, so you buy" he said in his heart

"But, if you ask the same Mama can't ya? oh, come home". He continued his journey home.

"I want the doll anyway, gotta buy it!" Alia was determined to buy the doll she liked. But he did not want to burden his parents, since then he started saving money and never snack at school.

He went straight to the toy store with his spare change, and immediately bought the doll he had been dreaming of.

"Yeeeeeeeeee!!!! finally get this beautiful doll!" running for joy while hugging her new doll.

"Since then Alia felt she had friends, she always played with the doll in her house, she also did not show the doll to anyone.

Alia even named the doll as Tiara, after playing she always hid the doll under a pillow in her bed.

Since her parents left, Alia's house was empty and not occupied because Alia slept in her grandmother's house, she was only at home when she came home from school to play with her doll.

Yep! the house was empty, and a chill began to blanket the house.

A month passed, Alia's parents sent a letter and several packages of toys and snacks to Alia. At that time there was no mobile phone, there was only a home phone plane, and even then only the wartel had.

"My dear child... How are you? you're healthy, right? Mama same Papa kangen with you. You're the same grandma, don't be naughty. Mama send toys for you to play with, you're not happy? Mama also sent chocolate snacks for you, you like chocolate right?..." a piece of the contents of the letter from Alia's parents, after finishing reading the letter he immediately opened the package.

"Waahhh dolls, there are clothes, and there are other toys as well" while opening one by one the package.

the next day many children who play to Alia's house, he also felt very happy because there are friends who want to play, well... they actually want to play because they know he has a lot of new toys coming from the city.

Alia never paid attention to it, she was only happy because she could have friends.

After all his friends came home he rushed to find Tiara, his beloved doll

"Oh no si," while lifting his pillow and shocked because the doll was not under his pillow.

"The feeling I put here yesterday, where's it.." I kept looking for the doll.

"Well, I'll see you too!" while taking the doll that turned out to be under his bed.

"You're doing it under the bottom! snuck from me, huh!?" while holding the Tiara doll, he did feel that Tiara was his close friend. Alia always told Tiara everything she experienced.

Since that day, the position of the Tiara doll always moved when Alia looked for it, but she remembered very well always put her under the pillow in her bed.

Alia never paid attention to all that, because she was just a 4-year-old girl who did not know anything.

Day after day passed, month after month passed, until two years had passed. Alia is now 6 years old, in starting to hang out with her peers, unlike the last two years where she only spent time together with her beloved doll, Tiara doll.

That day Alia was playing with a Tiara doll in her house, suddenly she saw a black shadow that flashed towards her Mama and Papa's room, she became reminded of her mother and father.
