Dream Crack
RM189. Less friendly
"The gate that came yesterday with that Aunt right"? Zio was already in front of all of them.
"Yes, I'm your brother" Ziyan said with a big smile.
"Why? What's up?" Zio didn't even kiss her brother's hand.
"Now, Yo?" Canda was shocked to hear Zio's words. Zio was not as Canda knew him, Zio was always friendly or silent with a smile when he did not want to chim in on any questions.
"Yes no, it's not like that. If you know me, why did you shut up yesterday? Clearly, what need is there? It should have been rebuked yesterday, calling me a cake that was missing. Cake has been set first, cake has been said first must be like this, let me get carried away with the atmosphere of family longing." Zio turned his head to his mother at a glance, then he looked at his guests again.
Givan gawked, seeing his son even opened a less friendly commotion. He shook his head, as Nadya turned to him and seemed to demand an explanation.
"Come on, it's Biyung." Canda patted the floor next to him.
He remained seated, as the discomfort re-emerged. He also allowed Nadya who approached him to shake hands, because the pain would increase if he moved.
With a direct movement, Zio immediately sat down beside his mother. His uneasy look, Zio was not a child who was good at hiding his unpleasant expression.
"Here sit, Nad." Givan chooses Zio's porch to be where they chat.
"Lia, please have Muna make you a drink. Just get Kak Canda's medicine on the living room table." Givan realizes that his wife is starting to feel the pain again.
"Yes, Bang." Zio's nanny immediately moved in compliance with Givan's orders.
"Zio, it's Mommy." Givan introduces Nadya to his son.
Zio nodded, then he extended his right hand. No smile, no questions. Zio just kissed her real mother's hand for a glimpse, then he sat down next to her.
"Zio didn't miss Mommy, son?" ask Nadya later.
Zio shook his head. He seemed so fed up with this situation. He who was so sensed, felt there was an awkwardness from their first meeting. What's more, with her brother who applies differently in their two meetings. It was quite suspicious for Zio, unfortunately he was unable to decipher his suspicions.
"Well, son?" Nadya's sad heart.
The boy was silent. He did not say what was strange in his heart, for the boy's courage was defeated by his frustration. He is the type of person who is silent when angry.
"What's wrong?" asked Canda softly, by patting his son's thigh.
Zio shook his head, then he leaned on mom's shoulder. If there was no one, he would have spilled his weakness to cry like his little habit used to.
"Go home, Biyung, " whispered Zio.
"Yes can't, Yo. Not polite," explained Canda very slowly by rubbing his son's head.
"Why?" Givan asked with a gesture of his mouth alone without a sound.
Canda shakes. He understood, Zio's wish was not well conveyed. He was worried that Nadya was offended, then thought about her biological children who grew up in their care.
"Mother bring school supplies for Zio, yesterday Mother entrusted to grandmother Dinda." Nadya tried to get close to her son.
"No need, my aunt bought it."
"Zio why? I talked to Dad last night, right? How about Zio gini?" Givan wants his son to open his voice.
Zio still shook his head, he was still leaning spoiled on mom. They were distracted for a moment with a sweet tea served by Muna, Canda rushed to drink a capsule that was advised to immediately drink it once the pain attacked.
Nadya noticed that Canda was taking medicine, she wanted to ask but she felt it was none of her business. The order now is to get a pretty good spot on Zio's side.
"This is Zio with Dad." Givan patted the spot next to him, for Zio to lean on him alone. "Biyung again did not feel good stomach," continued Givan later.
Zio wants to let go of his mother, he moves to get closer to his father.
"What's wrong?" Givan asked softly. He understands the nature of his son, he knows about Zio's anger expressed by his silence.
"Zuo...." Givan put a little emphasis on his voice, rubbing the boy's hand.
Zio understood, he was demanded an answer by his father. He tried to formulate a sentence that he could say, because he also felt his emotions were difficult to express.
"They're pretending, Dad," said Zio almost inaudibly to Givan.
Givan frowned. He tried to understand his son's incomprehensible point of view in his head. "Regardless of it all. Be kind, because Father and Biyung are not considered good educated Zio. Let them go, let me explain what Zio asks later. Don't go out here, kid. Dad's so bad, they think I made Zio so rude to them." Givan advised the boy right in his ear.
Zio's thoughts went on again. True said his parents, he who behaved badly and his parents who will get the impact.
"Thank you for the school supplies." Zio gave a fake smile towards Nadya.
Nadya returned that smile. He was a little confused by the situation, plus Zio whispered a lot with Givan and Canda.
"Together, Son. How's things? Where's the school? School's smart isn't it?" Nadya tries to establish a comfortable communication with her son.
Unfortunately, Givan's children were not educated to provide much information about themselves, given that the children were left unsupervised in school. Make their alertness increase, when asked by strangers.
"Good." Zio gave only one answer.
Just shut up again, Givan was confused to melt the atmosphere how. He feels wrong here. He took the initiative to ask about their news only, because the atmosphere was so awkward and unfriendly.
"What class is it now, Ziyan?" givan asked with a swipe on Ziyan's back.
"New to High School, Dad. Will Zio change schools there? You see SMP SMA building one fence there, so you can go back and forth with." Ziyan took a quick glance at her sister and turned her head again towards Givan.
"SMA I'll go to the boarding school" Zio replied sooner.
"Pesantren? My son wants to be deceived, Van?" Nadya's eyes were on Givan. "You know what the picture of life in the pesantren, Kasian Zio is not free to live there. How can you be with my son? Your son must have nothing to show, right?" Nadya spoke quickly as was her custom.
Zio watched carefully. He thought, what because the nature of his mother who looks like a lot of talk makes his father divorce his mother. His little brain is full of questions.
"Key this year entered the boarding school, he was taken care of by his grandfather for registration this morning. Not just Zio later, I plan to put all my children into the pesantren. Not to limit their lives, but I want their religion to be strong. It's not just the basics of the cake that I taught you like this. Just calm down, I want the best for my kids. Including, your son."
Zio lost focus. At the end of his sentence, Givan mentioned that he was Nadya's son, not ours. Makes him think, is he really a pickling boy? Not what Givan said.
