Dilemmas

"My parents divorced Lan," Aurora replied briefly with a sad look in front of Lani.

Lani who heard Aurora's confession was certainly very surprised, because before that day she always heard that the relationship between Aurora's parents was so harmonious, unlike her parents who had long divorced.

"I didn't hear Ra wrong? was the matter so complicated that mom and dad decided to make that decision? I'm sorry Ra I asked so many questions like this," asked Lani curious about Aurora's answer.

"The problem is difficult to solve with Lan's peaceful path, it also feels like I can't forgive the mistakes of my father to us and mother" Aurora said with teary eyes. Seeing the sadness that Aurora experienced, Lani immediately embraced Aurora's body aloud. He rubbed Aurora's back gently.

"You're patient, Ra, you still have a mother, sisters and me, I'm sure you can get through all this" Lani said.

"Yes, you're right Lan, I'm lucky to have all of you" Aurora said as she wiped her tears.

"Oh yes, now that you're telling me, what happy news do you want to tell me?" aurora asked questioningly, while releasing her embrace from Lani.

"Hmm.. next time Yes Ra I tell you, if your heart and feelings have improved so you are also happy to hear it," said Lani

"Lho, why is that Lan? you and my mom are a second family to me, and I'm sure you feel the same way as I do, so don't hesitate to make up any of that story, moreover, the news is happy news," said Aurora.

During this time Aurora has known Lani's family, as well as Lani with the Aurora family.

Hmm... Are you sure you want to hear this happy news?" ask Lani with a big smile.

"Yes, let's tell me quickly!" aurora's pinta on Lani continues to make her curious.

"Okay, my mother wants to remarry Ra," said Lani excitedly, as if they were a sign of happiness.

"Well, I'm glad Lan heard it, congratulations yes," Aurora said as she hugged Lani so warmly.

"Thank you Ra, you're the first person I've told you this news because you've been considered like Ra's own brother" Lani told Aurora. They didn't feel their tears just falling.

"Let me know when the important event is, my mother and I will come together later" said Aurora.

"Definitely Ra, I will tell you soon yes when the date has been determined" Lani told Aurora.

After their conversation, Aurora invites Lani to enter the store and start working as usual.

"Let's go in Lan, it's almost 8 in the morning" Aurora asked Lani.

They walked to the cake shop where they worked. Aurora walks and goes to the sales area to tidy up the cake pitcher, while Lani heads to the kitchen to prepare the cake. Looks like some other employees have just arrived and started entering the store area.

Until during the day, Lani came to Aurora who was tidying up the placement of the cake.

"Ra, let's have lunch!" take Lani to Aurora while pulling Aurora's hand towards the kitchen.

"You go first, Lan, I'm not hungry yet" Aurora said, saying that day she did not bring food from home and also did not have an allowance to buy food.

"You take it easy, Ra, I have lunch so we can eat together" said Lani, unzipping her bag and taking a lunch box.

Seeing Lani's lunch, Aurora remembers something. He promised his youngest brother to buy him fish as a side dish for his meal that day. Putting aside her embarrassment, Aurora said something to her best friend, wanting to keep her promise to her beloved sister.

"Ra, I want to ask you a favor" Aurora said in a slow voice.

"You said Ra, don't hesitate" said Lani with a smile.

"I want to borrow Lan's money, it doesn't need to be big, no matter how much you can help me, I'm very grateful" Aurora looked at Lani.

Hearing a request for help from his best friend, Lani then opened her wallet and took 2 pieces of money in one hundred thousand denominations.

"You use it, Ra, I'll still have enough to save until the end of the month" Lani clenched her money in Aurora's hands.

"How much is Lan?" aurora asked as she opened her fist.

"Lan, this is too much!" aurora looked at Lani's face.

"You just hold Ra, who knows you also need savings, right" said Lani, he was so understanding the economic situation of the Aurora family, especially after he heard the news of the divorce of his parents.

"Thank you very much Lan, I don't know what to pay back with all of you, I'll change the money after the end of the month huh Lan," Aurora smiled calmly as she held the money Lani gave. He could not wait to see the expression of his youngest brother when brought by the fish later in the afternoon.

"You don't have to pay anything to Ra, I'm lucky enough to have a good friend like you" Lani replied to Aurora.

"Yes already, now we eat yuk," asked Lani

They both ended up eating together with the provisions that Lani brought from her home. The friendship between the two looks so warm, as if there is not a single problem that will disturb their relationship.

The scorching afternoon sun was already passing overhead, Aurora and Lani finally returned to work after finishing her lunch. At that time, Aurora prepares to go home.

"Lan, I'm going home first! there's something I want to buy first to bring home," Aurora told Lani.

"Yes Ra, be careful! I'll see you tomorrow" said Lani as she waved her hand at Aurora.

With a rush of steps so excited, Aurora headed to a fishing spot not far from where she lived. He bought 1 kilo gram of fish to take home. His footsteps now arrived at his doorstep.

"Assalamualaikum, brother home," Aurora said a greeting as she entered.

"Yeaay... brother has come home, brother bring fish that Dika asked right sister?" asked her youngest sister in curiosity.

"Yes de, brother bring the fish, then the big brother fried first yes!" aurora answered with a hand rubbing Dika's head. She nodded and went back to playing in her room.

"You bought a fish for Dika Ra?" ask the mother.

"Yes ma'am, I borrowed money from Lani because I could not bear to see Dika crying like yesterday when she saw her friend eating fish" Aurora explained to the mother who was standing right in front of her.

"Not that the mother is not happy with your attention is the same Dika, but the mother is afraid that Dika will become spoiled and want all her will to be obeyed, while the mother does not have enough money to fulfill her wishes," said mom shed tears.
