In Reyhan's residence precisely in the backyard looked deserted. There are only teenage girls who can only rely on wheelchairs. His life was good, but he could not do activities like others. Looking at the clear sky which revealed a hint of white clouds.
The clear sky this afternoon made the teenage girl stare with sorrowful feeling. There was a glimmer of envy in the girl when she saw her peers doing the activity that Reni was so eager to do.
Saddened? he must be sad. Who is not sad if the life he lived was not as beautiful as the shadows and dreams he had thought and imagined. Wanting to assume this was just a dream, but real destiny threw Reni into the abyss. Can no longer climb the deep abyss that is devouring his entire body.
He just smiled at his family. But believe me if his heart is crying. God's destiny is not as beautiful as he imagined it to be.
"Lord.., why is the life I've lived this hard. There is not a glimmer of light that makes themselves able to walk like them. I want to feel how beautiful the outside world is. It was not like a golden bird that was just silent in its cage," Reni looked at the sky as if there was an answer to the question she was saying.
Again the tears that he held in front of his parents and grandmother came out on their own without the teenage girl being prevented.
On the other hand, a woman was staring at her girl was wiping tears that continued to seep out of her beautiful eyes. Sadness is within him. Staring at his son who always cried every time he was alone.
Almost every day the girl was alone with tears. Which mother wouldn't be sad to see her child like that. No one knows if the princess often cries alone. Only she was the witness of all her girl's cries. Even his own biological father never knew if his daughter often cried like today. The woman who gave birth to him knows that her child is like that.
Instead of not wanting to come closer, the woman knew that her daughter often hid her sadness without telling her parents' heads.
Tears flow from the side of the eyes of the woman who is looking at her child. His chest felt tight to see the condition of his son who did not heal. Various ways have been done, but God's destiny for him is like that.
I want the woman to replace her child. Let him be in the position of the girl, as long as his son can be like his other friends. But that will not happen, Lani who as a mother can only aspire for the baby.
The foot went back inside the house. There's still a lot of work to do. I really want Lani to hug her daughter. But the urge in him not to approach his daughter. Because all this time his son never showed that sadness in front of him. Maybe later he will definitely approach his son to give spirit to the teenage girl. That's what Lani thought.
She does unfinished kitchen work. Cooking rice, sambal and vegetables that have not been done yet. Removing the tears that had come out of the netra.
Reni, running her wheelchair into the house after feeling no more tears that adorn her smooth cheeks. Teens who have clean white skin, with oval face shape. Do not forget the lashes and nose pointed derivative of the father. Ahh yes, her blond hair is only the shoulder of the girl. Looks very sweet and pretty. That is roughly the definition of a teenage girl who is swinging her wheelchair with her hands to get inside the house quickly.
Reni took the wheelchair to the kitchen, when she did not see her mother in the living room. Maybe her mother is cooking. That's what the teenage girl thought.
"Is there anything I can help you with?" asked the girl to look at the mother who was cool in cutting kale vegetables.
"Yes Ma'am," he took what the mother gave him.
Reni painstakingly peeled the onion. After he finished he also sliced the onion on the advice of the mother.
"Mom why can't I walk until now? I wish I could be like other friends. It could be school or something," Reni looked at the mother who was frying fish.
Lani stopped her activities. He looked at his daughter with a sad look. "Honey patience, hopefully one day you can be like other friends. Can do what they do. Don't forget to pray, son. Hopefully the treatment we did this time will pay off," Lani rubbed her child gently even though she stared at the girl's pain. His heart was filled when he heard his son's words.
"But until when am I going to sit here, Mom? I feel like giving up on medication. None of it worked. Even I'm sixteen years old now, ma'am," I don't feel clear water flowing from those beautiful eyes. Staring at the mother with eyes flowing into the river.
Lani walked over to the princess. Removing the tears that come out. "Dear mother, there will be nothing in vain if we continue to try and pray. Even if you are not destined to be what you imagine, be grateful. Remember that there are many of our other brothers. Some have no feet or hands. There are even those who do not have both." said Lani looked at her daughter sadly.
"But Bu-"
"Ssttt, don't ever give up son. Be thankful for what you currently have. You still have your hands to do things. Although your feet are not working, trust me God's plan is more beautiful than you imagine, dear," Lani wiped away the tears that seeped from her daughter's beautiful eyes.
"I'm cap-"
"Darling mother, not necessarily what you want now is better. Sometimes what we think is good is the opposite. Don't forget to be thankful for God's blessings, dear. I don't want you to keep complaining, son. Mommy is sad to see you are sad, even the heart of the mother is also sore when she sees the mother's favorite child crying alone." Lani cuts off her son's words. Lani's tears also come out staring at the child.
Reni wiped the tears on the cheeks of the woman who had given birth to herself gently. Afterwards, she wiped away the tears that ran down her cheeks. Reni was very sad to see the woman shed her tears just because of her. This was the thing that Reni did not want to see the most. He could not see his mother rebuking just because of her. Not only that, even whoever made her mother cry she wouldn't like it.
"Huhffff, well ma'am, from today on I won't be sad. No more complaining or even desperate with the destiny that God gave me. Thank you, Mother, for making me sober. It's true what Mom said, I shouldn't be like this. Thank you Mom, thank you," The girl hugged the mother who was crouching in front of her. Hugged his beloved woman tightly. He realized he shouldn't be like this, yeah he shouldn't be.
"Same-dear," Lani replies to her daughter's embrace.
After taking off her embrace, Lani continued cooking with the princess' help. They only cook red chili fish, as well as kale vegetables.
