DAMNED GIRL
18. GRANDMA IS SICK

Without realizing it, apparently I lived with Grandma for a very long time, even now I have sixth grade Elementary. And in a matter of months I'll be taking the school graduation exam.

I didn't think I could get through the days here. It seems, just yesterday I came here with a package of clothes in a plastic bag with a very thin and shabby physical condition

My relationship with Mom is also quite good, what else to Mr. Yanto. He was very kind to me. Even though Mother is not very familiar to me or even just asking me but Mr. Yanto is enough to make me feel considered as a child.

As for every month also Mother and Mr. Yanto come to Grandma's house even though they rarely meet my greetings but they always bring fruit and money for me, even though the money given was no more than two hundred thousand but Grandma always taught me to thank them and the money from Mom was always saved.

Although they always come but Mr. Yanto never invited his daughter to visit, and even to this day I have not known the figure of Liana, my half-brother, even I can not describe what his figure is like and his attitude to me later.

As long as I'm at Grandma's house I feel lucky that Om Bayu never comes again. At least I feel comfortable because in recent years my life is far from people who corner me without facts

Long before Grandma did not work, all this time Grandma only relied on Grandpa's savings money, just, but because his savings money had begun to run low, Grandma finally decided to become a mobile laundry washer around the village

Many are sorry for him, many also doubt Grandma for fear of being unlucky, of course they have bad luck coming from me

With the age that is getting older and getting older but Grandma still strong washing in the river. Grandma once also said to me that not only is she still working hard but there are still many people her age who are still struggling to make a living, so Grandma feels there is a sperm friend.

So, that was one of Grandma's spirit triggers all along

Even so, I do not stay silent to see him slamming bones for our daily needs, I also often help Grandma by washing her customers' clothes in the river that is not far from home. Even so, Grandma always refused my help.

But, you base me.

I kept forcing him to help her.

Like today, Grandma and I were in the river helping her wash her clothes.

Today only one customer can be washed clothes not so much, only one tub only.

As usual we split the task, Grandma who grinded her clothes on a big rock while I rinsed it.

Up to two hours we passed together, finally because the work was done, Grandma and I rushed home and was drying it in the backyard of Grandma's house which was quite spacious

When I helped Grandma dry clothes suddenly Grandma fell down to the point that her clothes were still moist to be dirty mixed with dirt dust

I panicked and ran towards him

"Grandmother !"

I quickly grabbed her body and helped her to get up. But apparently Grandma is still not able to, she is still in a prone position.

Even so, He still tried to get up. With trembling legs he deferred his strength to stand until he was finally able to stand up despite having to support my body.

"Grandmother rest, let me sunbathe" I said as I pushed Grandma into the house

Without answering a word this time Grandma complied with me despite her slow pace and still shaking but Grandma was still willing to struggle

Arriving in Grandma's room I just helped her to change her clothes that were dirty, after changing I helped Grandma to get on her bed but at the time Grandma's feet accidentally bent, Grandma immediately whimpered in pain

"Haduhh, it hurts so much" she whispered

I don't know what to do can only rub Grandma's feet. Although I don't know which side she's in pain

"Granny's legs want to break up, crumble, pain. Granny's nodding is very painful" he said as Grandma slowly straightened her legs

While I was trying to help her straighten Grandma's legs

But Grandma still complained about the pain

"Grandma's neck is very sick" he complained

Hearing it, I became more confused

"I have to what is Grandma ?" I asked but had to try not to panic in front of him

"Please heat the water to compress Grandma's feet" he ordered

Without a second thought, I ran straight to the kitchen and cooked some water.

From outside the house, I heard someone knocking on the door

Tok..button.tok..!

I open the door immediately.

But apparently,

Mother is coming.

Seeing his presence I felt relieved. At least I won't be alone taking care of Grandma. And of course you will help a lot as an adult portion

While Mr. Yanto was parking his bike before he finally met me

Not yet mother entered he immediately asked the whereabouts of Grandma

"Where's Grandma ?" tannya

"Sick grandmother "my answer is quick, hoping that Mom will be a good Angel figure who will be willing to take care of Grandma

But Mother's face was not surprised or worried, her face was flat

"What pain ?" ask Mom while stepping around looking around the room without removing her back

"Newly, his legs hurt" I replied as I followed him from behind his back

Without asking any more questions, Mother immediately stepped to find Grandma in her room

"What's your mom sick ?" ask Grandma who looks pale and tired

Grandma answered him in a very relaxed voice "Just a footache" he replied

At the same time, Mr. Yanto went into Grandma's room, he was very sorry to see Grandma's situation

It is precisely Mr. Yanto who panics as if he is afraid of Grandma happening anything

"Well, what's sick mom ?" ask Mr. Yanto.

Grandma smiled and just shook her head

With a sincere heart, Mr. Yanto offered Grandma treatment only

" We're going to get treatment, ma'am" he asked

But Grandma rejected him calmly

"No need, I just hurt my leg. Maybe it's just a sprain but I don't realize when the sprain, it will also heal if compressed" he believes

But Mr. Yanto remains worried and still insistent to bring Grandma treatment

"Just I have to go for treatment now" he said to the point that he wanted to carry Grandma

But, again Grandma rejected it calmly "Not to, thank you" he said

Seeing the attitude of her husband who was very caring, then Mother snatched the real Grandmother speech for Mr. Yanto

"No, I don't need to be taken for treatment. After all, how will you bring the bike. Who takes care of Mom when you're screwed" said Mother

But Grandma was focused on my stepfather's vehicle

"Well, you guys came here with a bike ?" tannya

Pak Yanto nodded

"Yes ma'am, just a used motorbike I bought. Yes, it is good to go where it is not difficult anymore" he replied

Heard her Grandma sumringah "Well, good. Your luck is increasing" said Grandma

Mr. Yanto smiled

"Yes, Mom. Thank you very much for Mother's prayers, without Mother's prayer I can not get windfall until now" said Mr. Yanto "Then allow me to bring Mother to treatment huh ?" pinta Pak Yanto once again

But Mother instead cut off the mercy of Mr. Yanto "Dad, was I told you not to take medication. Yes, it doesn't work" he said

Immediately Grandma said Mother's words "Yes, Nak Yanto. Don't have. I'm fine" he said calmly
