"Vaalaikumsalam. Brother Avi, hurry home, fire house."
"Innalady. Yes, brother will be home soon."
After receiving the phone Avi immediately clean his bag and go home. Along the way Avi kept thinking about the condition of Bu Rini and the other orphanage sisters.
Avi's legs felt limp as if boneless when he saw the building of the orphanage and had been burned. Police cars and ambulances there.
"Where is Rini's condition ?" ask Avi to Lia.
"Bu Rini and the other sisters have died burning Brother." Lia immediately cried in Avi's arms.
"Innalilahi wa innalilahi rojiun." Avi hugged her sisters.
"Son Avi.." call Mr. Dadang, local Rt.
"Yes sir." Avi releases Lia's embrace.
"We're very sorry. All the funerals of Ms. Rini and the other sisters will be taken care of until the end" Dadang said.
"Thank You Sir. Sorry to bother." Avi lowered his head still grieving.
"You guys how ? Where will I live ?" ask Dadang.
"We don't know yet, sir. Maybe we will find a rented house until someone wants to accommodate my sisters" said Avi.
"alright. Now you come to my father's house. You guys rest there." take Dadang.
"Thank You Sir. Sorry to bother your family." Avi said once again.
"It's okay, son. That's what the neighbors are for." Dadang smiled at Avi and her four siblings.
Avi and her younger siblings stayed for a week at Dadang's house. From the money that was in the atm, Avu decided to contract a small house for them to live in.
"Sir, Ma'am, we're saying goodbye. Thank you for your kindness all along." Avi kissed Dadang and his wife's hand.
"Same - same. If you need help, please do not hesitate to contact us" said Mr. Dadang.
"There are clothes you can wear." Bu Dadang gave a bag containing clothes.
"Thank you ma'am." they answered in unison.
"We're saying goodbye. Assalamualaikum." Avi stepped out of Mr. Dadang's house.
"Waalaikumsalam" replied Mr. Dadang and his wife.
Avi contracts a small house close to her sister's school.
"I'm sorry it's a small house" Avi said.
"What's up. Brother. Thank God we still have shelter" said Lia.
"There are 2 rooms. One room is occupied by Bayu and Agus and the other room is occupied by Lia and Indah" said Avi.
"Where are you sleeping ?" tanya Beautiful's.
"Of course you guys sleep together." Avi shuffling hair Beautiful.
"You have to be independent. Together - clean the house and cook. Brother will be busy on campus and work." Avi.
"Aren't you getting a job ?" ask Agus.
"Alhamdulillah. Back to college, my sister became a babysitter. Evenings sometimes teach tutoring." replied Avi.
"Are you tired, brother ?" ask Lia.
"It's okay. Insha Allah Brother can do time." Avi smiled at Lia.
"Yes Brother" said his four brothers in unison.
Avi also live the days with full busyness. Morning of college, afternoon working as a babysitter and night sometimes give tutoring to muris sd. There really is no time to hang out or hang out with friends. Until finally a year later, Bayu, Agus and Lia graduated Junior High School.
"Sir, we want to continue school in the pesantren in East Java" said Bayu representing his two brothers.
"Cok away deck ?" ask Avi.
"Thank God we got a scholarship there. The same Ustad Danang, who yesterday had filled the express boarding school at school." Agus helped explain.
"We've actually been bidding since the end of last year. He knew that we were orphans and willing to accommodate us to study at the boarding school" Bayu said.
"It's up to you. As long as you want, yes, my brother agrees." said Avi.
"Beautiful was also invited to live with his brother Pak Dadang. He wants to make Lovely as his son." said Indah.
"Why do you all want to leave Brother ?" Avi was starting to feel sad.
"We know you have a hard time dividing your time between college and work. We don't want to see Brother get sick because of this." Bayu stared fixedly at Avi.
"I don't feel bothered. You're good kids." Avi looked at the four children in turn.
"We have agreed on this, brother. We can get together again" said Lia again
"Well if that's your decision. Sister support. Don't ever forget Brother." Avi hugged Indah and Lia tightly while Bayu and Agus looked at them with a smile.
After his four siblings went to their respective places, Avi chose to look for a smaller cost.
"Vi, you want to find a cosan ?" ask Dian, a college friend.
"Yes Yan. The house is too big to live on its own. Mubazir." replied Avi.
"What is your job ?" ask Dian again.
"Now I'm just teaching les. College is crowded again so I can't take any more time" Avi said.
"Would you not work as a babysitter at my cousin's ?" Dian offered Avi.
"Time that Yan can't." Avi answered listlessly.
"You can stay at my cousin's house. So don't worry anymore" said Dian.
"I mean ?" Avi did not understand Dian's intentions.
"My cousin I need someone who can take care of her mother-in-law but has to take care of her." Dian explained again. Avi just Dian thought about Dian's words.
"Indeed, the guy's chatty but he's nice. Morning you can go to college, night can still give lessons. Right in the house you help take care of her mother-in-law" said Dian.
"Oohs.. So the work can be flexible, yes, but have to take care of his mother ?" Avi tried to confirm.
"Yes. Her mother-in-law had a stroke but was recovering. Just ngawasin and nemenin aja" said Dian.
"Can too. But I'd like to see your brother first. Make sure the job desc and working time" said Avi.
"OK ready. We'll go back to college later." take Dian.
"OK." replied Avi briefly.
"Assalamualaik." Avi and Dian greeted.
"Waalaikumsalam." answered the voice from inside the house.
"Sister, this is Avi my friend I was telling you about." Dian introduced Avi to her brother.
"People."
"Anita"
"Are you willing to help me ?" ask Nita to the point.
"Mau Brother. As long as I can still go to college and teach lessons at night." replied Avi.
"Can kok. I need someone to help me take care of my mother. Because I also just had a baby so I can not accompany my mother continuously" said Nita.
"Yes Brother. I want to help. Brother's husband doesn't matter if I'm here ?" ask Avi heart - heart.
"So. My husband works out of town, comes home once a week." replied Nita.
"Yes Brother." Avi said briefly.
"But honestly I can not afford to pay you according umr. Maybe only able to pay half of umr" said Nita again.
"Actually I'm not paid is also okay. Thank God I got a free place to stay" Avi said.
"Yes, I will pay. Make your savings add up." said Nita.
"Good Brother. Thanks" said Avi.
"I'm the one who thanks you for helping me take care of Mom" Nita said as she hugged Avi.
"Same - same Brother." Avi hugged Nita.
