DAMNED GIRL

DAMNED GIRL
41. FAREWELL WORD


The morning has returned to welcome, gently the fresh breeze felt touching my skin along with the chirping of morning birds that always sound melodious accompanying my new spirit today.


So even to Mr. Yanto who today still forced himself to return to work.


He said he was very healthy


Seen from his smile that sumringah both eyes sparkle and his face brightly illustrates that Mr. Yanto really has returned to health.


But, even so somehow my mind said that Mr. Yanto actually has not fully recovered


As usual, I put down breakfast plates for us to eat together. He put it on the living room table neatly arranged and looks good


Mr. Yanto reassured Mother after all had gathered to eat "I'm already healthy" he said


But apparently Mom still hesitates "Dad sure that today Dad is healthier ?" I reassured again


Dad nodded adorned with his smile "Yes Ma'am, just look at this Daddy can move his body. It's recovered" he said as he spread out his hands and then flapped like he was flying


Mother smiled relieved "It's good then hopefully healthy always and long life" he said


"Amin" said Mr. Yanto while taking his plate that contains food that has been in front of him since


Mr. Yanto did convince himself that he had recovered but my little heart seemed to reject him because this morning felt different from where the thought came from I was also confused, I can not conclude but I only feel that today also the face of Mr. Yanto looks different because even though Mr. Yanto seems angry since then but my mind is sad to see it.


This morning Mr. Yanto did not finish his meal, he prefers to leave more than usual


Not usually Pak Yanto like that, usually he appreciates food


Seeing her Mom gets angry "Why not spend it anyway !" heed


Dad shook his head "Daddy is full Mom" he said, sliding his plate marked that he did not want to eat anymore


But I don't want to accept, he wants Pak Yanto to spend as usual


"But you ate very little today, really little. You should eat more so that there will be energy" said Mother.his anger began to subside


Mr. Yanto smiled, "Relax, ma'am, I'm not very sick, just a common cold. This is because I do not need to eat just a normal thing when people are recovering from illness, just calm down at most later day and night I will eat ravenously. His name is also the healing process" he explained grinning


Hearing her Mother was relieved "Yes already if so do not forget to bring lunch supplies yes" said Mother


Pak Yanto nodded "Iya Bu. Just calm. It would be fine to eat" he said, giving Mother two thumbs up


Mother smiled little "Yes already then" he concluded


"Yes, Dad went to work first yes" she told us


We answered, "Yes be careful"


After Mr. Yanto left as usual, my mother told me to improve like before


"Don't forget to feed the ducks, and don't overdue too because Liana will be bad luck" he said


I nodded slowly "Yes Ma'am"


Septi asked me once, why not feed the ducks before taking a bath, but I answered him because Mr. Yanto would forbid it and would tell Mom to do it. It's happened before and I was so mad at me after that.


Therefore, after Mr. Yanto was not at home, Mother was always free to tell me.


But it's okay, all this time I've been doing it.


Today I took the lesson as usual without any other problems that left me in despair.


The blue sky with the scorching sun that stung my skin seemed to burn it mercilessly. Even though I was wearing a jacket, it still couldn't protect me from the sting.


Really, it's hotter than usual.


In the afternoon at four in the afternoon apparently Pak Yanto had come home, he entered the house with a clean face and looked healthy


Mother who also saw his arrival so confused because usually Pak Yanto to the house at six in the afternoon.


"Yes, the factory machine is again damaged so it must be serviced first. Because the service is a bit long so all employees are told to go home" he explained


Mother nodded and was relieved to hear "Oh, I think Dad is still sick" he said


"No. Oh yeah I want to go fishing first and tonight Daddy's coming home. Yeah, maybe about ten o'clock in the evening Daddy's here again" he said


Mom's getting confused to hear "Huh, fishing ?" heed


Mr. Yanto nodded while busy preparing his fishing rod "Iya Bu, Dad went fishing to sea with Mr. Yosan. Be a step back, Mr. Yosan picked up Dad" he explained


Hearing the word sea Mother increasingly hesitated to allow Pak Yanto "Dad how could be fishing to the sea anyway !" feared


Mr. Yanto turned his head to Mother's face, but Mr. Yanto smiled while still preparing his fishing gear "I'm used to it and have been very often fishing to the sea. Recently married to you I've never been there again" he explained


Mother approached Mr. Yanto and then gently touched his shoulder "Dad, if my suggestion is better not to leave because Dad has just healed" he asked gently


But at the same time it was heard the sound of Pak Yosan's motorbike stopped in front of the house, Dad who knew because he memorized the sound of his friend's motorbike


"Well, that's Mr. Yosan has come" he said without elaborating on Mother's request just now


Pak Yanto even immediately paid a farewell to Mother


"I'm leaving first, ma'am, just take care of the kids for a minute. I won't be long. At best to go home at midnight. Hehe" he said as he stepped away carrying his fishing rod then at once saying goodbye to me


"Dhira, you go first. Later you come home at night" pam


I nodded "Yes sir" I replied


But I just kept quiet to see the departure of Mr. Yanto who prefers to go with his old friend


The sky began to orange as if hinting at the sun sinking behind gray clouds, the night wind began to blow slowly, as breezy as the night wind carried the atmosphere without feeling the sky was getting darker. Tonight there are no stars only a pitch black sky stretched wide


But Mr. Yanto has not yet returned when the time has shown ten o'clock at night.


I faithfully waited for Dad to get me in the living room, although his eyes were fixed on the television but I could feel that Mom's mind was already chaotic seen from his attitude that was always restless if he heard the roar of the motorbike outside the house, Mom turned to the door that was still closed. I hope Mr. Yanto comes home soon and gathers with us again


Until eleven o'clock past fifteen minutes Mr. Yanto has not returned.


Dr..drunn...


The roar of Pak Yosan's motorbike engine was heard streaking right on the door of our house


Immediately Mother rushed to open the door for Mr. Yanto


But Mom's smile looked frozen when she saw Mr. Yosan coming alone


"Where is my husband ?" ask Mom flat


But Mr. Yosan started to get nervous, his body was not calm. Like there's something he doesn't deserve to say tonight


But Mother kept asking again "Where is my husband ?" tannya


"Nh.nggg...Bu..nggg..it" he said stammering.


Hearing him Mother was getting upset just hearing Mr. Yosan's answer, Mother's voice tone began to rise "Where is my husband ?" the upset. His eyes were already watering as if stemming the pain that was not yet known for sure


But Mr. Yosan still looked down in front of Mom, apparently he was more able to talk


"Nggg.ngggg" he replied.


"Sir, answer me !" upset Mom again


But Mr. Yosan was still silent, his face began to pale stiff even though he shivered occasionally but his forehead was actually sweating.


Mother who was fed up with seeing the attitude of Mr. Yosan finally went up black also "Pak Yosan replied dong ! answer !!! My husband left this afternoon with my father !" unluckiness


But Mr. Yosan was even more confused as if he did not know where to start first
