Masalalu Prison
Remembering Dad

The ringing of the sophisticated phone rang many times when the owner was still in the dream world. With eyes still closed by the young man, it also took his phone on the nightstand.

"Hello, who?" I asked her to get out of bed.

"You're still asleep?" ask the voice across there.

"Omma? What's up?" slowly he opened his eyes.

"Why did you not visit Oma, said Danu you were in the villa Malang? Oma misses you so much" said the woman on the phone.

"Oma, I was given a short break by my lecturer, so I haven't had time to visit Oma. I promise to visit Oma later after returning home" replied Ardan.

"Yes, well oma keep your promise, continue your sleep!" said the woman called Oma by Ardan.

Without answering, the phone call was terminated by Ardan because in London it was still early morning . It has been almost 5 months since he returned to London for his college, since his last meeting with Arini at that time, somehow he still often remembered with the flat girl. Yes, according to others she is not attractive, but for her Arini is an attractive girl. There's something different about the cold, but I don't know what? Ardan was getting curious about the girl.

As of now, Ardan who after bathing was only wearing a white towel to cover his lower body. He walked towards the small drawer that was beside his bed and took something from there. The blue book he picked up and began to open it, with a sweet smile he remembered where he had found the flat girl's book.

He slowly opened the book, the contents were the same as the first time he opened the book when in the villa. A picture of a middle-aged, thin-moustached man with a gentle smile. The picture is very beautiful to see real and below it are written words.

Too soon you leave a scar deep in my heart, taking you off is not an option for me.

He guessed, maybe the middle-aged man was his father, because what he knew from Danu the girl did not have a father.

 ***

The school bell has sounded indicating that the learning activity has been completed, students scattered out of their classes, each of them was no exception the two friends Arini Elina Putri and Mirae Rahayu Danuarto.

Mirae was engrossed in her phone while smiling to herself, like an insane person. As for Arini, don't think Arini is the same as Mirae, Mirae has everything. An expensive bag, a sophisticated mobile phone, a sweet and chatty face, is far different from her flat-faced self, smiling too rarely does she often see her expressionless face to others. Sophisticated phone, expensive bag he did not have all that.

In today's sophisticated and modern, many teenagers are competing to have goods that are branded so as not to be outdated and get millions of followers in cyberspace. No wonder all the ways they do, from the ones that show their makeup in cyberspace, there are even some of them who sell themselves for money.

But not for Arini, he didn't think much of anything like that. To go to school, he was grateful. Although there was no doubt, there was envy in his heart, but the feeling was not too he ignored.

Arini used to live in a fairly well-located family, Arini's father used to be a teacher at a junior high school in the Yogyakarta city area. While Rahmi, Arini's mother is a student at the famous University in Jakarta. They met when Rahmi was training for work in the city of Yogyakarta, which is when they fell in love at first sight. Rahmi comes from a rich family, while her father is only from the ordinary. That is what caused Rahmi's extended family to ban their relationship, until where Rahmi was betrothed by a friend's son from her mother. During the wedding, Rahmi flees to Yogyakarta to meet Irwan Arini's father.

They eventually married and moved to the city of Malang. There they set up a small business, but the business went bankrupt because Alda their first child and older brother Arini was raped and eventually pregnant. The fateful incident made Alda commit suicide after giving birth to his son by slicing his own wrist in front of Arini who was then 10 years old. That's what caused Arini to experience trauma until now.

"Es rock, I'm coming home with you." Raised both eyebrows.

"Well?" ask Arini sewot.

"Can't you?"

"No, if you go home just to eat mah mending do not have to go home. Wong sugeh manganese mengelok tonggo (rich people eat kok follow neighbors)," said Arini.

"Yes, the end of Rahmi's bude cuisine is very good not rich in my mama's cooking, there is no taste" replied Mirae honestly.

"Hey ... appreciate the efforts of parents, not even in contempt," said Arini.

"Come on, bacot you hahaha ...!"

Arriving at Arini's house.

"Come home, Buk!" opened the door with Mirae behind her.

"Your mother nandi to Es?" ask Mirae.

"Ask me, I ask who? Just arrived." Arini clinched the head of her best friend.

"Auh .. loro! (monkey)" cried Mirae.

Arini who was still changing clothes was suddenly surprised by the arrival of a creature created by God who without permission entered his room. Who else if not Mirae.

"Geez, Arini, your room is so clean again. Your comic book collection is also a lot." Mirae holds Arini's belongings.

"Don't touch my stuff!" ketus Arini's.

"Check has ... just got megang doang, medit! (pelit)" muttered Mirae while laying her thin body into the not-so-big mattress. Maybe it's enough for two.

"Sir, are you home?" looking into his son's room.

"Enggeh Buk, ibuk press ndi (mother from where?" ask Arini in her language.

"Push press mburi omah, petek feed. (A rush from the back of the house to feed the chicken), there's a Mirae to?" rahmi said with a medok style of speech.

"Enggeh Bude, Bude how are you?" ask Mirae.

"Alhamdulliah good, let's eat first, Nduk! Arini eat with Mirae!" Rahmi's orders.

"Enggeh, Buk." while staring intently at Mirae who was just a whimper.

The two friends also ate together interspersed with Mirae babble who did not stop telling stories, I don't know what to say about. Arini responded to him just nodding her head as if understanding.

After the meal was finished Mirae went home because the day had started late in the afternoon, fearing that Bu Ratih and Pak Danu were looking for her. Mirae's habit of always going out without permission made both parents worried, why they had Arini watch over her baby.

Evening arrived, the simple family was sitting in the living room while accompanying Rizky who was studying.

"Where is your test, Nduk?" asked Rahmi who was in the kitchen.

"The test is done Buk, next week the announcement of his graduation." while crossing out the scribble of the book in front of him, Arini's habit when he was not busy he always drew something. I don't know what is it? according to his will.

"Thank God if that, your mother seneng wes passed. InsyaAllah Ibuk will work even harder so that you can go to college, eman (honey) to Nduk you do not continue studying" said Rahmi.

Arini stopped her activities.

"Arini wants to work, Buk, want to help mom find money for her school Rizky later," replied Arini.

His mother who was cleaning vegetables in the kitchen also approached Arini in the living room.

"Sir, here's your father's message, he wants you to go to college until you graduate." patted his son slowly on the shoulder.

Arini was just silent, every time he heard the word father he was always moody. She recalled the fond memories of being with her father, Arini was very close to her.

But the happiness was lost after he recalled the tragic accident 5 years ago, when he was escorted by his father to go to school. Arini elementary school was a bit far from his home, had to use a motorcycle to get there.

When the father and son were busy telling a story, suddenly the luxury car at high speed hit the pick up car and the pick up car was too cool and hit the father and son. The motorbike driven by his father was bounced far away, even was not intact anymore, fortunately Arini at that time only suffered injuries and fainted. His father died in a place with very bad circumstances.

Arini's memory returned after her name was called her mother, awakening her to the real world now.

"Nduk, why dream, krungu opo ora ibuk by the way?" (heard what didn't you say?)

"The Opo to Buk? Arini is not krungu (heard)"

" That's lo .. the day after his nephew Pak Danu returned again to the villa, so you changed ibuk for a while because he was harvesting vegetables in the village next door"

"Ooohh .. nagging, Buk"

Rahmi is forced to find an excuse so that she does not meet with Jooniean's child. He doesn't want Arini to know.
