MARGI Well
Chapters. 27. Vigilant
Marginah listens to the word Fatima. He'll try not to remember the incident last afternoon after school.
“You and Nesya just rest no need to help the picket first. Let me do it with Mawarni.” said Fatima then she walked to the bed of Mawarni, and woke her up and took her out to do her picket duty.
Nita and Vani, who had awoken by hearing Fatima's voice, advised Marginah. The two of them then also stood up and ran after Fatima and Mawarni's footsteps, they will both help her brother because there are two brothers who are sick.
Time passed until nightfall.
“Pak, I went to bed with a friend. Mr. Jemari sleeps here only.” said Angga after changing his nightgown while carrying his blanket. Mr. Jemari was just silent, he still thought he was sleeping alone or sleeping in Mas Budi's room. If you sleep in Mas Budi's room if you want to pee at night must go out of the room, if you sleep alone in the guest room afraid the lights will be tempting at midnight again. While Mr. Jemari still thinks Angga has passed away.
Mr. Jemari paced back and forth walking in the room while holding his blanket.
“Ah sleeps here only, after all the lights have been cleared Mas Budi.” muttered Mr. Jemari then he walked to his bed and so on curled up on his bed. Jemari tried to close her eyes. But only his eyes could be closed his mind was still spinning. Until the early hours of the morning, Mr. Jemari was able to really fall asleep. In the morning he woke up because he heard the voice of Angga who was busy preparing himself to go to school.
The morning work went according to plan. Angga set off on his own bike. He pedaled the bike along with other older siblings out of the yard and then they scattered to the school road each. Now live Angga with some older siblings who also go to Junior High will their class higher than Angga.
“Nga later you wait for us to go home if your class is already out.”
“Iya Kak.” Angga replied as he walked away from the parking lot. Angga then walked towards his class. Angga felt different from yesterday morning who can still joke with Marginah and Nesya when going into class. Now he feels lonely without any jokes.
“Hai.” Brian patted Angga on the shoulder from behind as the two of them were about to enter the classroom door.
“Mana Marginah and Nesya, how are you alone?” asked Brian when he reached his seat while putting a bag on the table next he sat in his chair.
“Bri, we'll sit here. Marginah and Nesya did not enter the class.” said Angga who stood near the table Marginah and Nesya, he wanted to sit in front to focus more on listening to the lesson.
“Why are they both, sick?” ask Brian. Angga then told me about the incident yesterday afternoon. Brian who is a friend of Nesya Elementary School can quickly understand what is told by Angga because he already knows that Nesya is often pursued by his Father.
“Nga you are very serious.” whispered Brian while elbowing the body of Angga who was beside him.
“I did not expect if I sat next door with a diligent and serious child.” whispered Brian again. Angga just kept quiet, he still tried to focus on listening to the explanation from his teacher. Until it does not feel like the time has come for Angga class to finish the last lesson today.
Angga and Brian dropped out of class with another friend. Angga saw a new first class who had already left the class. He remembered the invitation of the older sister of the orphanage to go home together.
“Ayo Nga we take a bike.” invite Brian who saw Angga still standing sculpting outside the class.
“I want to go home with sister panti.” Angga replied
“Third grade Nga long return home, there are additional lessons. But if second grade is any minute. It is up to you to wait for them or with me.” said Brian then he stepped foot leaving Angga to the bicycle parking lot. Angga seemed to think for a moment.
“Bri.. wait.” cried Angga then he immediately walked after Brian. He thought his father Nesya was the one pursued by the girls so he was safe, he wanted to get to the orphanage immediately and relay the lessons he received to Marginah and Nesya hunted he forgot if later asked.
Angga then with Brian and the other first graders came out of the school yard. Angga and Brian like yesterday paddled a bike side by side Brian told a lot of stories while Angga just listened. Until they arrived at the crossroads, the two of them separated. Angga continued to pedal his bike but he felt that there was a motorbike following him. Angga slow down the speed of his bike strange motor behind him also slow down the speed does not precede Angga. Angga then slightly turned to see the person who was riding a motorcycle wearing a mask. Angga immediately increased the speed of his bike he pedaled the bike very quickly. The motor speeds up his speed. But still not ahead of the Angga bike.
Angga continues to pedal quickly and still maintain his balance he does not want to fall like Marginah. But Angga also thought how to survive the bike that followed him. When Angga saw the house on the side of the road Angga turned his bike in the yard of the house. In the courtyard was a mother who was straddling the clothesline. The mother looks surprised to see a bicycle ridden swiftly into the yard of his house because he was almost hit by Angga.
“If you ride a bike do not speed speed let alone have entered the yard of the house of people.” shouted the mother while holding a shirt.
“Find who, I don't have school children.” said the mother as she stared intently at Angga's face.
“Sorry Bu.” said Angga who had brake his bike suddenly. He got off his bike. Angga looks confused how to tell the mother of the owner of this house.
“Bu can I ride here for a while I want to wait for my friend.” said Angga next. The mother then observed the face and appearance of Angga. Angga's skin is clean black hair sparkles with neat cuts as well as her clean and neat clothes plus the polite speech of Angga. Makes the mother not suspect that Angga is a bad boy. But the mother was still silent as she looked down the street to see if the boy had entered her house with anyone else.
