102. Unexpected Circumstance


One year is not a short time, I go through my days in a new place with joy. Mama and papa came to the contract about six months ago, precisely when I had a birthday.


Especially that day my rice stall was closed, only a day in the span of a year, I had a sale holiday. And the next day I open by giving free food to the buyers who have become my subscription.


Obviously I remember my mom crying when I just arrived and saw me who was selling, because Juna was the one who picked up mom and dad from the station that time. Mama was crying because she was happy and sad because her children looked happy elsewhere.


Mama and papa certainly still remember when forbidding me to leave the house, either a year ago or 14 years ago, the difference between the ban the second time I did not ignore, I feel happier in a new place.


" Rita came to the house and gave the rest of your salary as mama, there was even a bonus from Riko as compensation money he said, still mama save because it was yours, because it was yours, and mom brought it here because she wanted to give it to you".


" Then Rita also asked for your phone number, but mom gave me your old phone number, mom didn't give me a new number, mama's just worried that Rita will tell Bian your new number too. Mama does not want you to be in touch with any man who has hurt your heart dear, mama does not want your mind back preoccupied with affairs in the past", he said", mama said when we talked in the room together.


I had to join my bed and Juna's folding bed so that mom could sleep with me at that time. While papa sleeps with Juna in the contract next door. Rashid gave her bed and relented to sleep in the workshop for 2 nights, because my mom and dad only stayed for 2 days and 2 nights in our rented.


" All the money is for mama only, the money here has been a lot, this food stall business is quite also fortunately. So the money was for my mom".


Our conversation at that time we only ended at 2 am, of course we also discussed about Shaka. I miss her a lot, and so does my mom, but maybe this is the best decision for Shaka to be a successful person later on. Shaka is an intelligent and accomplished child, if he stays with us, maybe he will not be able to develop to the maximum because of our limited ability to support his hobbies and abilities.


Moreover, Yoga himself wants to take care of Shaka, as proof if he really regretted his attitude in the past, also as proof if in fact Yoga never agreed with his mother's wish that I abort my womb.


Now I began to believe in his words, for he proved by his deeds by being responsible for Shaka's life. So also with mama who began to be able to forgive the mistakes of Yoga in the past. Mama and papa used to really hate Yoga to the point of not being willing to see it, but now they have begun to learn to forgive the mistakes of Yoga, because it turns out that Yoga also actually wants the presence of Shaka.


Mama and I slept for only three hours, and we woke up early, mom and dad I took to the market, I introduced to all my friends at the market, everyone was very friendly with my mom and dad.


It's been six months since that day, I haven't seen my mom and dad again, we do video calls, often while watching the stalls at 9 to 10, because at that time the stalls were not too crowded and could cut vegetables while having a video call with mama and papa.


It turns out that my last salary money mama used to open her own business receiving cake orders or various kinds of snacks at home, and mama already has some subscriptions, let alone mama's friends in the factory first, and mama's friends at home, most are busy and often order a cake or Snack on mama if there is an event. Mama also left cakes and fried foods at stalls near the house.


Papa still remains attractive ojek, and as a part-time at home papa deliberately bought a lot of chickens to raise, and cultivated, after the big chicken papa will sell it. Sometimes if too many lay eggs, papa will sell chicken eggs to stalls, it has also produced.


Mama and papa so have a lot of free time because they only live together, feel lonely, of course they feel, but maybe my family must live apart like this so that everything goes smoothly and happily, he said, mama and papa did not want to live with me and Juna in rented, they still want to stay at home alone, what can I if they are already at their establishment.


But life is not always as it wishes. Today I got a call from my mom asking me to go home. Mama told me about what happened while crying. Very clearly heard from his trembling voice, mama needs the support of someone.


Mama told if Papa had an accident while on a motorcycle taxi, because it passed through a hole in the water, which was flooded, papa so hit a pedestrian who was standing by the side of the road and the man was seriously injured.


The family of the man who was hit asked for justice and wanted to report this incident to the police. But my mother begged them to solve this problem in a family way. And mama said she would cover all medical expenses as well as the victim's treatment.


The person who was hit by papa suffered a crack in the finger of his left hand, because it fell when papa hit and used his left hand as a pedestal when he fell. That's why the finger of his left hand was cracked because of the wrong cone.


" This mall is the contract key, if later Juna back from work please give the contract key to Juna yes, you keep the stall until this food is finished, if it is finished you can go home. If Juna nanya, tell him to call and ask me directly, this is an emergency. Maybe starting tomorrow the shop closes first a few days, I have to go back to the village".


Mala just nodded, and I could see from the look on her face she wanted to ask a lot of things, but did not dare to reveal them. I also don't have time to explain. Mama and papa were in need of me beside them right now, but due to the long distance I could not directly accompany them. It took me a few hours to get there.


Juna did never hold his HP while at work, because that's the regulation of the factory, can check HP if you are resting. That's why I didn't tell Juna, he's still busy working, maybe I'll call him during the break.


I immediately booked a train ticket online while on the road to the station, fortunately there was a train that soon departed for my village. I hope you're not too anxious to think about Papa.


When the train started to speed I called my mom again, telling her I was on my way home. And ask mama to stay calm, "Mama who is calm, let Raya later talk to the victim's family, now mama just focus on caring for papa, do not cry continuously, do not cry, mama's situation like that will make papa feel more guilty" I said trying to make mama feel calmer.


Mama just nodded while holding back her cries. Soon I arrived and accompanied my mother in the hospital, hopefully until then the victim's family has not reported to the police.


At 2 pm I arrived at the hospital where papa and the person who was hit by papa in the care. Mama was waiting for me at my doorstep when I told her I was in the hospital.


" The person you hit was in the other room Ra.", that was the first sentence you said when you saw me, obviously you were still scared.


" Yes ma, wait a minute, Raya want to see papa for a moment, if there are many who are injured or not", I entered the papa's room which turned out to contain 4 people in it, naturally papa is treated using health insurance, of course there are many other patients room.


" Papa kok Ra, just blisters on the knee and elbow, you should meet the family of the person who papa hit earlier, before they report papa to the police", papa pinta memelas.


I finally just briefly saw the state of papa, and immediately went to another room that was also in another hallway. Rooms whose patients are only one person in one room, obviously staying overnight in that room will cost a lot. And it's all we have to endure.


" Why in this room ma?, what was hit by had no health insurance?", only that question came to my mind now.


" Yes Ra. the young man was checking out the new project, he said, around the empty land that was beside the Garuda futsal building. It seems like a rich man, so he doesn't have health insurance like us".


" But his cousin who became his personal assistant who kept saying he would sue papa, mama would be afraid, what if papa you imprisoned, mama should how?". Again Mama's voice sounded trembling like before when making a phone call.


" Yes we have come in now and have a good conversation with them, hopefully they agree that this matter is resolved in a family way" I said trying to calm my mother.


I knocked on the door and said that I was the daughter of the man who accidentally hit her, and soon someone let me in.


When I opened the door and looked into a room that could be said to be quite good for a hospital room. The person standing next to the patient's bed looked surprised as he looked at me. And I'm no less surprised by that guy.


" Kingdom..!", exclaimed a voice that was quite familiar I heard before.
