Not long time ago. I arrived at the Dusk House. Looked a handsome 27-year-old man, wearing a light blue shirt that is presenting children at the House of Dusk. Yes that man is A Hisham.
I call him A Hisham because we are five years different. I rushed in to get in.
The teachers in the Twilight House were only three people. Me, Syava and A Hisham. But for today there is only me and A Hisham who teach, while Syava he is practicing midwifery in one of the Village Puskesmas.
...“ Assalammualikum... ” ...
Greetings when entering the House of Dusk.
...“ Waalaikumssalam.. ” ...
Reply them compactly.
The students in Rumah Dusk numbered 20 people. It consists of 10 boys and 10 girls. Their average age is 7-9 years. There is even a 5-year-old consisting of 2 boys and 1 girl whose age is very young. They were all children who could not feel school.
Before me, Syava and A Hisham built the Dusk House. Their activities used to be as scavengers and market buskers. Even from them already did not have both parents, they only lived with his grandmother and grandfather who was old.
One year ago before I decided to quit college. Because they don't want to burden the family economy. I was desperate at that time because of what I had dreamed and I aspired to be a teacher, when the hope was dashed.
But their presence made me realize that I should not give up, I should be grateful to be able to get an education. Starting from Elementary School to college, although stopped in the middle of the road.
I'm sad if I see school children today who always complain because of the piling up schoolwork, brawling between fellow schools carrying sharp objects that they should carry textbooks, he said, even until there are cases of sexual abuse so that you have to get pregnant outside marriage. Nauzzubillah Minzaalikis.
They should be grateful to be able to go to school and college. Because what?
Many out there who want to go to school but can not include the children of twilight.
That is why I realized my dream as a Teacher by teaching at the House of Dusk.
All those hopes were realized thanks to A Hisham who always gave me life motivation, supported me. I am so grateful to have known them here. They are both my little friends.
...“ What's the Child News? ” ...
^^^My greetings to all those present that morning.^^^
...“ Alhamdullah....Justjust wonderful.. Allahuahbar !! ” ...
they answered with such enthusiasm.
^^^“ Mashaallah so much spirit. Ready to study with A Hisham and Nay Tea Today? ” ^^^
Aaa... and Teh Nay, they all call me and Syava by the name of “Teteh” which means older sister and A Hisham namely
“Aa” Brother Male.
“ Siaaaaaap !! ” They all shouted back to the question thrown by A Hisham very compactly. Me and A Hisham looked at each other and smiled at all of them.
^^^“ Good.. then. Now we discuss the English assignment that was yesterday only. About Greeting and Parting ” ^^^
in the next second I said.
^^^“ Who wants to give an example of greed and response? ”^^^
“ Me..! ” Said a 7-year-old male student with great vigor he raised his hand.
... “Yes... Varel Please” ...
I said to invite Varel to give an example of Greeting or greeting and response to all his friends.
^^^“ One example of a Greeting sentence is. How are you? And the response is. I’m fine, thank you. Isn't it Nay Tea? ” ^^^
Varel asked with a smile on his cheek.
...“ Heeem... Really not ? ” ...
I glanced at A Hisham.
...“ A Hisham's. Didn't Varel answer? ” ...
^^^ My words that held back laughter could only smile faintly.^^^
...“The answer is absolutely correct Varel ” ...
Say A Hisham .
They all clapped. After me and A Hisham gave me new material.
Studying at the Dusk House only takes two hours. Every day there are only two subjects. One lesson was only discussed for an hour.
