Best Teacher And Me
Grandma, Is He Going?

Kila had not seen her parents at home since the rain. Even on Sundays, they are out of town more often now. It seemed obvious that her mom and dad's efforts were on their way to their peak, so they were very busy right now. Kila missed them, but she held back a little. They have a very stiff relationship, because they rarely meet it. Not knowing through a cell phone either, so Kila just prayed and guessed that the two parents must be in good condition. I am sure God will protect both.

Kila was a little pensive in her seat. Somehow daydreaming now seems to be his hobby. Looks like he decided to just go home on jum’at this time. He is also having monthly guests, so the custom of’atnya after school he did not do this week. He also wants to meet his grandmother soon to treat his longing for his mother. At least, by chatting with grandma can distract her from the shackling longing.

“Assalamu’alaykum,” Kila said upon entering the house.

Unexpectedly, the one who answered Kila's greeting was Riska who was reading a book in the living room. Kila was immediately excited to approach her mother. He was also looking for his grandmother, but was not yet seen. Because it is usually the tech who welcomes the Kila greeting.

“Mama, have you gone home? Since when?” asked Kila who had previously kissed Riska's hand.

“Tadi, ten o'clock,” reply Riska brief.

“Ooh, papa where?” ask Kila again.

“Udah to mosque to pray jum’at.”

“If grandma, where, Ma?”

“That mama doesn't know, she says she wants to go out for a while. But no one said where to go. Mama wants nawarin for anther grandma, but rejected. So, the grandmother went to take a taxi online.”

“Tumben granny out ngabarin Kila. Where to go, huh, grandma?”

“We are waiting at home.”

“Hmm yes, deh. Ma, Kila pay to the room first, yes, want to change clothes.”

“Iya.”

“Granny why is it weird, yes, today? Tumben really does not ngabarin me if you want to go, so. I just call grandma, kali, ya?” Inner Kila made a sound as she walked towards her room.

...****************...

Until he got in the room after changing clothes and composing his book, Kila laid his body on the bed. Positioning on your back while looking for the grandmother's contact to find out her whereabouts.

“Halo, assalamu’alaykum, Nek, grandma where now?” ask Kila on the phone.

“Wa’alaykumussalam, Kil. Grandma's playing at a friend's place. Look, you're in a lot of pain, Kil. You don't tell me your papa and mama, yes,” replied grandma.

“Grandma why not grab me, anyway? I'm worried to know. Grandma also did not ngabarin if mom and dad turned out to have come home. Grandma why the hell, really tumben, not as usual,” Kila nagging.

“Ooh, about that, sorry grandma yes, Kil. Grandma does not want to disturb your concentration while at school. You see, our conversation will be long if grandma tells you.” Grandma answered according to the facts.

“Ya, but it doesn't hurt if grandma ngabarin at school home hours Kila.” Kila showed a slightly upset tone.

“Ih, grandma, not yet people are ready to talk. Just play close. Wa’alaykumussalam,” said Kila with annoyance.

Grandma is now done visiting her friend. Too bad, jengukan grandma accompanied by tahlilan. His friend has been called back to the Creator. Unexpectedly, the grandmother had to end up polishing her friend after a long time without seeing her. This reminds grandma that how old she is and will definitely catch up with her friend.

Right after the ashar, the grandmother returned home in an online taxi. He had also informed Kila via chat that he was on his way now. He will also stop at a convenience store near the complex. Kila asked to buy a new stock of pens because her stock had been exhausted when she wanted to do her schoolwork.

Grandma had gotten off the online taxi that had taken her earlier and the taxi continued its journey to pick up other passengers. He had already finished buying a deposit from Kila. Now he will go home on foot, because his house is not so far away. Counting, walking is also a healthy exercise.

Kila who was at home was a little impatient because grandma had not come home too, while her duties had piled up because of the absence of pen stock she had. He was also reluctant to complain to ask for a pen to his mother and papa, finally he decided to follow his grandmother to the only convenience store near his home complex. She's sure Grandma's still there.

Kila had seen the exact whereabouts of her grandmother just came out of the store and wanted to cross. Kila then waved her tag and greeted the grandmother. But it seems that his grandmother did not hear because Kila was still quite far from her grandmother's position.

After getting a little closer, Kila waved her hand and shouted to her grandmother, “Nek!”

“Nek, beware!” Gawat, he called his grandmother at the wrong time.

“Kila?” At a time like this why did grandma just look?

“Nek, look out for cars!” Kila warned.

“He?” Grandma was confused for a while and stopped on the road.

Brukkkk

That voice that appeared when a carl hit grandma. The man who allegedly was not a resident of the complex just drove his car after hitting people.

“Grandmother!!” That was Kila's first response when she saw the incident firsthand, a hysterical scream. Make people around you approach.

“Woi, brash car, run out of people instead of responsibility instead of running away.” Said one of the residents who happened to be at the scene slightly cursing. He then found out about the neighbor who was the victim. Soon he contacted Riska and Gilang, because expecting Kila who contacted could not be because Kila was like pecking at his place right after the incident.

“Grandmother!!” Kila now began to droop in front of the grandmother. He did not even have the strength to approach his grandmother and embrace her.

“Cap up an ambulance!” Residents said to the wife who was also at the scene, because she was calling Riska and Gilang who had not been lifted as well.

Kila was silent in his place seeing his grandmother's entire body covered in blood. The tears continued to pour out without a sound. He shared a deaf and mute man who was paralyzed, unable to do anything for his grandmother. He was very shocked because the call he shouted earlier made the grandmother look and did not pay attention to the road, finally be like this. Her grandmother had an accident before Kila's own eyes. He cursed himself. Ah, no, that nightmare why is it happening now? Even Kila became more evil in this incident compared to the nightmares of that time.
