Changing the Love of the Past

"Don't you still remember your brother's taunts on the phone saying you're getting fat?" Ask papa.

"Where there is, why also I was offended by the words of mas Dino. I just thought about dieting. Mama and papa take it easy, my diet is not a heavy diet. I still eat rice but in small portions."

"Lazy we argue with you, as long as you don't get sick." Said mom.

My mom and dad ate our food. I finished first because of my small portion. Actually this diet I run suddenly because earlier when choosing clothes that I will be acquainted when I want to go with loly and sita, everything began to claustrophobic in my body. For there are clothes that are a little bigger and I have never worn them. It turns out that the shirt even fit in my body.

"Ma, pa I go first. I'm gonna take a break."

I said while kissing mama's cheeks before returning to the room. We'll stay another week and the holidays will be over. "Hoah, how sleepy. I want to sleep."

I pulled out a blanket to cover my body. My eyes slowly closed. And now the dream world accompanies my night sleep.

. ....

Today was the day I had to accompany my mother to shop again. And just today I met Lex. "Let's go baby, mama's in a hurry" said Mama when she saw me dumbstruck outside the car.

"Ma, I don't have to come, I want to rest, tired."

"Why are you? It hurt?" Ask mama to worry.

"No, I'm just a little tired."

"Yes already, you just rest.Mama leave first yes dear."

"Good ma." Mr. Jodi and mom are leaving. I kept watching until their car disappeared from my sight.

"I don't want to see him again today. Just let him get hit. That's none of my business." I went back inside the house, then took a TV remote to watch a show I liked.

But somehow my heart suddenly riled, full of worry. I tried to convince myself that everything would be fine but this little heart remained unsettled.

The shadow of Lex getting hit by a car and dying horribly comes to my mind.

"Oh my God, send someone else not me. I don't want to save her."

But my body moved by itself, walking towards the room to get ready. I was just washing my face because I was supposed to be accompanying my mom to the mole today and helping Lex there. I'll be right down when I'm ready. The taxi I ordered before washing my face has also come.

"Snake the road, "I said as my body was already in the car.

On the way I thought back to why I was still not in my stance. I've decided not to bond with Lex but I'm breaking it.

"Pak can we arrive at 10:15 at the mole, because I have business."

"If that's not guaranteed, miss, as long as we don't get stuck, we might get there faster." Answer the driver.

But thankfully we arrived 10.19 minutes, but the driver's face showed guilt because I asked him to arrive 15 minutes.

"Sorry lady, it's even been 15 minutes. I was as good as I could."

"It's okay sir. This is the money."

After the taxi left, I immediately ran around the building because the actual scene was on the left side while I was on the right. Sure enough, when I got there, Lex walked down the street to pick up his niece's toy that was rolling down the street. Her niece continues to cry and asks Lex to take her. Lex came with his cousin's sister and her brother's husband, with their son who was about 3 years old.

"safe, boya"

"Patience, uncle will get Jojo can not cry okay."

As Lex walked to the middle of the road without paying attention to his surroundings and focusing only on the ball, a black car emerged from behind him. Bruks....

I pulled Lex's body as hard as I could to the curb and our feet tripped and fell on the grass. Everyone who was shocked by the sound ran towards us to make sure of our situation. The car owner stopped and shouted his condolences.

"If you want to die, not in front of my car, I don't want to deal with the police because of you. You adults should know the rules of the road, not just the nongol in front of the road."

After he finished nagging, he left.

"Are you guys okay?" Ask a mother who happens to be near us. "We're fine." My answer. Everyone who had been together was now reduced one by one.

Brother Lex ran towards us and asked us how we were doing.

My hand felt sore from the blisters as a result of being scratched on the asphalt. But now all I think about is getting out of that place.

"Thank you for saving me."

"It's okay it's just spontaneous."

"You're hurt, let me help you treat her, "give up Sonya's sister, Lex's cousin.

"No, I was in a hurry. I'll go first." I said and quickly left them.
