elivan asked with sparkling eyes, making the seeing latitude powerless to resist.
“What if now we learn?” tanya Lintang who has free time. Elivan immediately gave an enthusiastic nod in response to the Latitude question.
“Wait here for a while” Lintang moved from his seat, then walked to his room to pick up a book, a bilingual English dictionary and a pencil for him and Elivan.
“In the use of Indonesian language does not need to use formulas, everything is very easy, I'm sure after one month you learn Indonesian you will be proficient” bright Lintang who is trying to explain how the structure in Indonesian. Hearing the explanation from the Latitude, Elivan only nodded in understanding.
“This is a dictionary, your job is to now find a word and arrange a sentence that describes you, and do not forget to write it in the book.”
Slowly, Elivan opened the dictionary looking word for word to string it into a sentence that describes him.
Half an hour passed but Elivan was now looking seriously at the book he was holding, not yet finished either what he looked at or maybe he was memb— Ugh Lintang forgot to ask Elivan whether he could read or not.
“Elivan can you read” tanya Lintang who is now trying to withstand his drowsiness.
elivan replied without turning his head towards Latitude, his focus was only on a dictionary in his hand.
Lintang nodded, he picked up the book that was under Elivan's feet, then he read and observed the contents of the writing,
...['My name is Elivano P, I'm from America and the son of two crazy married couples, my mother told someone to take me away from her, and finally I was dumped by that guy here, lucky for me to meet a nice guy who would accept me, while my dad was busy with his work, he doesn't care about me at all.']...

Lintang will check her if she has the money. But on the other hand, Lintang also felt compassion because a child like Elivan, really needed enough time and affection from his parents. because love and time are very important in the growth and development of toddlers, both in terms of physical and psychological.
“Good, for the lesson now until here first, tomorrow we will learn how to say the words you learned earlier.” said Lintang While closing the book in his hand, and try not to close his eyes.
“OK, may I borrow this dictionary for me to learn?” Lintang heard it just nodded, to be honest, the strength of his eyes was only one Watt, he could no longer resist the drowsiness that attacked him.
“Yes, do as you please, but remember do not go out, outside is very dangerous.I will sleep, I can not open my eyes again.”] said Lintang before he fell asleep. Elivan who saw it just shrugged his shoulders indifferently, then refocused on the object in front of him.
