Today is Sunday. A bright week, makes people cheerful. But not for Kila. Today is a dark day for Kila.
Kila has been in school for a month, but Kila still has not been able to express her gratitude to Irsyad. Excessive indeed, but Kila knows the expression of gratitude is very important to convey. That's what makes Kila gray.
There are some words that are easy to pronounce in the mouth but hard to say sincerely. Like the words; sorry, thank you, I love you, the spirit to live the day, and so on. When sincerely say it, the relationship of two people will be warmer. Plus other small attention, communication with the simplest word is very meaningful to create a warm atmosphere between people.
Kila at home with her grandmother, the most valuable figure in Kila's life. The grandmother in question was the grandmother of her mother's parents. This grandmother was her only grandmother, no more grandparents from her parents. Her grandmother who took care of Kila from birth, although her mother also contributed, but who spent more time with Kila was her grandmother. Grandma was like her own biological mother to Kila more than her real mother.
My mom and dad are busy with their work. One day only the three of them could be together, that's because the grandmother told them to accompany Kila on the first day of school. The next day, Kila just stayed with grandma. Kila also went to school by public transport, not transfer like most other students.
"Sir, Kila wants to confide in Grandma." Kila approached her grandmother who was sitting in their backyard seat.
"Geez, you're not used to confiding with grandma. Usually a story, too" chirped grandma.
"Hehe, grandma memorized it, deh. So shy," Kila said a little shyly.
"Yes, your name is the same as that of a fifteen-year-old grandmother. Yes grandma memorize it, if you have something strange, not like usually."
"Hehe," laughs Kila.
"Actually, want a story about men, Grandma," said Kila while playing her fingernails sign want to start the conversation slowly. Not nothing, the grandmother even teased her grandson by poking his right cheek.
"It's not a matter of romance, anyway, Grandma. But this bothers Kila. You see, the person is very good with Kila, Nek."
"Emang, what did that man do to you, until you said it was so good?" ask grandma.
"If you've told grandma about that OSIS sister, right? But it's not complete, Grandma. Kila hesitated to tell grandma, let alone discuss men," Kila prefix.
"So, Grandma. Kila is actually almost punished it is not so because it was saved by defending this man. He was also actually the one who led Kila to the hall that time." Kila completes his words about the events of that time that Kila had previously told the grandmother, but did not tell the figure of Irsyad.
So awake was she about men, because she had educated her grandmother. He never wanted to think about men, so when he told it to his grandmother, Kila did not tell the Irsyad part. Initially Kila did not want to think, but because Kila kept thinking so inevitably Kila had to convey to her grandmother. Kila believes by telling it to grandma will make it not minded continue, because every Kila has a problem surely grandma always has a solution. The problem is, Irsyad's figure is like the hero of the rescue of Kila, and Kila is still not calm if you have not thanked Irsyad.
"Umm, yes, Grandma. He was a teacher at the Kila school. Kila also did not know at that time, but when Ira was told to be with Risa, Kila knew that she was a teacher. But when he nolongin Kila, Kila remained polite, really, call him 'Pak'. Kila thought he was just a regular staff at school, because the suit is also neat, so Kila called 'Pak' aja, deh, Nek."
"Good, smart granddaughter grandma. Grandma is proud of you," praised Grandma as she gently rubbed Kila's head.
"Duh, grandma. Kila's not a kid anymore, you know. I'm a high school boy" Kila responded to Grandma. He puffed his cheeks like a child. Grandma also poked the cheeks that infused Kila.
"You, yeah .. coy-ass shy. Inwardly still happy, right, needed like a child?" grandma says. Kila even shook her head timidly while carving a smile on her lips. Grandma hugged him for a moment.
"Ih, grandma, right. When will Kila be able to continue the story? So sweet as a grandma, hug her grandson's hug continues."
"Belvin. Let grandma be satisfied. Later if there is no grandmother, Kila does not have a grandmother to hug. So the grandmother wants to be satisfied to be spoiled to her own grandchildren," said the spoiled follow-up grandmother, not in a sad tone.
"Haha, there's-there's a grandmother, huh."
"Udah, yes, Kila continuedin. Where it was, wasn't it, Kila forgot. Oh, yes, remember. Grandma said, right, if people have done good to us, we must say thank you or give something in return for being helped. Well, that's the problem. Kila has not had time to meet with him, and say thank you directly, Grandma. What do you think Kila should be?"
"Why haven't you met her yet?"
"First, because Kila if the break time is always the same Ira and Risa, if not yes in the musholla. Pas dhuha, pas dzuhur, Kila there was also no meeting him. At the teacher's office, Kila had never met. After seeing him in the corridor, Kila saw that he was always in a hurry, perhaps to enter a class to teach. And right back home from school, Kila will go straight home so there is no looking for him either. Kila preferred a grandmother who was alone at home, so quickly Kila went home." Kila describes the times she took to find Irsyad. Grandma seemed to nod in understanding response to Kila who told her a story. This is the advantage of grandma. Grandma was very responsive to Kila's story. He not only listened, but also looked into Kila's eyes when telling a story, responding also in between signs to understand what his grandson was saying.
"You might just want to say thank you. Love the food or whatever, cake, don't just thank you. Maybe he knows that you're just talking about it, he doesn't think it's important to him." Grandma responded to her grandson's question, Kila. There was a little bit of a joke there.
"Ih, grandma. The guy looks good, it's impossible to think about it. I think it's like Grandma said. What kind of things do you love to say thank you, or all the food?" ask Kila again asking her grandmother's opinion.
"Yes, both are confused."
"Oh, yeah, yeah. Kila followed grandmother's advice. Thank you my dear grandmother." Kila ended the conversation by kissing Grandma's cheek. Then he walked to the kitchen to make his grandmother a chelate tea. It's her grandmother's habit to drink Kila's chelate tea at this hour.
