Losing Teaches Me
Whatever Happens I Must Be Strong

Berlin has arrived at his home with a state between happy and sad, I don't know it feels like all the flavors in his body are mixed today. Berlin had already entered his house he was currently sitting in the living room with his eyes closed facing upwards.

"Darling you've come home? " ask her mother who is sitting next to Berlin.

Berlin opened his eyes and looked at his mother, "When has she been here? " question back to Berlin who felt that there was no mother next to him.

"Since just now, "reply to her mother.

"Ouh, I'm tired today, " said Berlin, leaning his head on his mother's shoulders.

"Aren't you tired of what? " ask her mother while stroking her son's hair.

"Let's see Sam, "reply back to Berlin with a sweet smile.

"It's a habit, " said his mother.

"Well, I think I still like Sam, it's hard to forget him, too" said Berlin who felt again failed to forget Sam from his memory and heart.

"You just want to order one thing with you, " said his mother.

Berlin immediately changed his sitting position so facing his mother, "What message do you want? I will listen very well, "ask Berlin in excitement.

"You just want to say, you can just like Sam, but you have to remember one thing. Never be too deep to hope in someone because the greater our expectations will be the greater the risk of disappointment we will get, "that's the message of his mother Berlin for this child.

Instead of immediately responding to the words of his mother Berlin instead directly hugged his mother and smiled in his arms, "I will always remember what mamah said, "reply Berlin sweet.

"Yes now you take a bath well, already smelly tau, "his mother let go of Berlin's embrace and asked Berlin to take a bath.

Berlin let go of her embrace and walked to her room to take a shower and change her clothes. After a few minutes Berlin finally finished changing his clothes, he walked towards the dining table.

Somehow today he was very hungry, when on the way he saw his brother was watching television in the family room. So he took the time to go towards his brother first.

"Not again what? seriously looking at the television, " asked Berlin while looking at Tio.

"Lu can see me again say, "reply cynical Tio.

Berlin sat next to his brother, "Couldn't you? don't be cynical with me one day, " said Berlin while staring at Tio who was staring at the television screen.

"Son, "reply cynical Tio.

"Ouh well, my brother just wanted to say that for example I will go please take care of mamah papah yah? because yesterday said the doctor I will not stay long in this world. Though my ideals have not been fulfilled but yes it is basically my ideals will never be granted, " said Berlin, after which Berlin stood up and went to the dinner table.

Tio who heard that immediately stared at the departure of his sister, there was something that really touched his heart at this moment. He really did not know that his sister did not have much time in this world, was Tio really selfish? I don't know if I don't know either.

"Well, "call Berlin who hugs his mother.

"Dear to eat? " ask her mother while she kisses Berlin on the forehead.

"No, just want to snack, "reply Berlin that does not want to eat heavy foods.

"Well, wait here, get some food for you, "his mother Berlin gets some snacks for her son.

"Nih, "said his mother while keeping the food in front of his son, he also sat beside Berlin.

"Thank you, "reply Berlin who ate it.

Elsewhere Daniel had just returned home, the man had just set foot on the floor of his house someone had scolded and scolded him.

"Based on the child does not know in profit, where did you come home at this time, "snaps a man who blocked the entrance of Daniel.

"Well, your son just got home from school. Do not be angry with him, " cried a woman who stood before Daniel.

"Mom, don't defend me, " said Daniel, who asked his mother to be quiet.

"No, mother cannot be silent, "reply her mother.

"You're how the hell? step aside, "his father Daniel pushed his mother Daniel until he fell to the floor.

"Well, don't ever touch my mom, if you want to be mad, just be mad at me. Not to my mother, "collapsed Daniel while helping his mother to wake up.

"Where's the money you promised yesterday? " asked his father while thrusting his hand.

Daniel opened his bag and took out a brown envelope, "You took it all, "Daniel threw the money in front of his father, after which he led his mother into his room.

"Basar son does not know himself, "snaps his father while taking money splattered.

In Daniel's room immediately put his mother to bed, "Mah, mamah no papa right? " ask Daniel worriedly.

"No mama, no papa. But where did you get that kind of money? " ask his mother who wonders why her son can get that much money.

"Well don't think about where I got that much money, now all you need to know is tomorrow I have a basketball game mamah wish me well so that I win, " reply Daniel who did not want to tell where he got that much money.

"But you didn't steal, did you? " ask her mother back.

"Well, I can't do that anyway, I still know if it's not good, "reply Daniel with a smile.

"Thank God then. Mama promised to pray for you to win tomorrow, "said her mother while returning her son's smile.

"Lumayan aja mah, the money can I use to nambahin money oprasi mamah, "reply Daniel.

"Honey don't think mamah well, now that you need to think is your school, "said his mother who does not want her child to think too much about her illness.

"But mah, I will try to do my best to mamah, "reply Daniel.

"Well, now you better sleep, "Daniel asked his mother to sleep.

As for himself after that went straight to his room, he was really confused about having to find money where else for his mother's opration fee. While the motorbike he has sold, but the car is still not sold because no one wants to buy the car.

Every time he came home from school he sometimes liked to work part time in some places to support the family while saving for his mother's expenses. Although he sometimes complains but honestly if he complains and gives up then he will lose everything.

So as much as possible this time he struggled to support his family.
