Morning sunday...
Maryati woke up when the dawn of Azan reverberated.
His footsteps built both of his parents.
They immediately started their own activities.
After dawn, Maryati continued her duties as usual, starting from washing the river, bathing and other routines.
He had just returned from the river, from a distance his eyes were suddenly on a girl of his age was climbing the stairs of Maryati's house.
he seems to know the boy, with the comedian's bongsor, the long black hair....
Maryati paused for a moment her steps and then tried to remember.
"Tini, it's true.it's Tini..."
Maryati girang.
He hastened his steps.I cant wait to get in his heart.
Not to mention reaching the end of the stairs, Maryati had been shouting to call Tini.
"Tiiinn...Tinyiii.."
Call her
a sweet girl appeared from inside..
"Mar,, I miss you very much"
Tini greeted Maryati who came home from washing.They both hugged tightly and warmly at the end of the stairs.
Tini is the son of her mother's older sister who is commonly called her uwak.
The two of them were so close from childhood often together.
In the past, the two of them often accompanied his paralyzed grandmother, and slept there.
Since their grandmother died, they both returned to their parents.
"How are you Mar??"
Tini asked her cousin who was no less sweet.
"I'm good Tin.yeah I'm so fond of you coming here.."
"How about uwak news??"
Connect her
"Thank God be healthy too"
"Where is your school mar??, has it smp now??"
"No Tin, I'm not in school anymore.I quit 5th grade yesterday.."
Maryati lowered her head, a look of sadness on her face
"Ohhhh,,"
That was all that could come out of Tini's mouth, when he saw the bitter look on his cousin's face.
"Loh..are you two this..Why is the story below.?? let's go up "
The mother's rebuke made the two cute girls simultaneously look up,,
"Yes bik"
Answer Tini.
The two of them immediately went up and entered the house..
"Where are you going??"
"You go to the market..Tin, uh,,"
"Where's the bik?"
Ask Tini again.
"Your eyes are looking for a job, and now they're unemployed"
Masning replied with a smile, and immediately passed away leaving his hut.
10 Minutes later, Maryati had changed clothes..
"Tin, I now work at Mother Ita's house, it's about to leave, you wait at home huh, not long."
Maryati told Tini and said goodbye.
Tini just stared at her cousin in amazement.
"I'm leaving first, Tin,,"
Pamit Maryati to her cousin.
Tini looks mangosteen.
Now the house was deserted.Tini was alone there, he looked around the house.
Tini took a long breath.
there was a pain in Tini's heart, he was very sorry for the life of his cousin who was all lacking.
After being satisfied looking at the condition of the house, Tini sat leaning against the wall of the reot.
In this place they used to play together.It has been a long time Tini did not visit.maybe it has been almost 5 to 6 years.
Since their grandmother died.
Every Sunday afternoon, Tini always come to this house, to pick up maryati to stay at their grandmother's house.and Saturday afternoon Maryati will come home...
In one week Maryati only 1 night sleep at her house..
It was because his grandmother had a stroke and next to his body was paralyzed, that's what made Maryati and Tini accompany the grandmother.
"Hooooaaammmm..."
Tini's tiny mouth was wide open.
He decided to change his position, breaking down while waiting for Maryati.

Somewhere else..
Maryati seems to be busy with her duties.
She sped up her work so she could quickly go home and let go of longing with her cousin Tini.
Long time no see, so much he wanted to tell.
Maryati occasionally glances at the wall clock..He didn't want Tini to wait too long.
2 and a half hours passed..
At the end of it he finished all of it..
Maryati washed both her hands, then stepped towards the bedchamber of her master Ita Mother.
Tok.dok..
"Mhakkk.."
call maryati.
Today Ibu ita is at home, every Sunday, she does not work.
Sounded steps from inside the room Mother ita, followed by the sound of the door lock that was opened.
"Yes mar.."
Mother's head poked out when her bedroom door opened,
It looks like Ibu Ita is only wearing a night sleep dress, her youthful face still looks beautiful even though she just woke up from her sleep.
"Do you want to go home on deck??"
Ask Mom ita,
"Yes mbak"
"Wait a minute,,"
Mother Ita came out of her room while closing the door tightly.then she headed to her kitchen.
Maryati accidentally saw the figure of a man sleeping on the bed Mother ita.
it was like he was asking who the man was, but his tongue could not speak, it felt impolite to ask like that.
However, as Maryati recalled, the man was no longer the man she was with last week.
Maryati, then walked to the dining chair and chose to sit waiting for Mother.
About 10 minutes waiting.End mother ita appeared from the kitchen, he seemed to carry one large black bag..
"This brings you home to deck.make you and your family.."
mom gave up the bag to Maryati, and,,
"Is this mbak, kok a lot??"
Maryati seemed astonished to receive the package and tried to peek at the contents of the bag.
"There is food, last night I brought a lot of food, it's also a pot and there are clothes for you to buy, try to see.pas not in your body??"
With sparkling eyes, Maryati unpacked the contents of the bag..
she got 2 dresses.
It is pink in color with a large ribbon on the chest and lace accents on the bottom that are paddled.
While the other is green extinct with a bulging shape of the arms and ribbon straps at the waist.
it looks like an expensive dress, looks from the bag that wraps the dress.
at an age, Maryati had never touched an expensive store dress, the most dress she bought in the market, once a year during holidays.
"It's so pretty, my goodness.."
Shouted Maryati joy while sticking the dress on her body.
Mom just smiled sweetly at maryati's happiness.
Later,,
"This is your salary this month, Mar.."
Ibu Ita gave a hundred thousand bills as much as 3 pieces.
"Loch...loch...this is what else mbak..kok much, do not I have to accept only 150 rb for this month??"
Maryati's light to Mother Ita.
"Kan, that time I borrowed 100k for my mother's treatment,,"
Maryati again.
Mom looked at maryati's eyes.then grabbed her hand and then said..
"Your debt must be paid off, and this is your salary and your bonus, because you are diligent."
Maryati was unable to say anything more.It seems that her tears were already able to represent her current feelings.
😢😢☺️
Along the way home, Maryati ceaselessly thanked God for every sustenance that has been given to her..
even though life is so difficult, but she is grateful to always be surrounded by people who are kind and care for her..
