Meira
CHAPTER 5

The black motorbike stopped right in front of a simple house, seen a mother in her 45s was busy serving buyers of fried bananas.

Seeing the motorbike stop in front of his house made the mother turn her gaze on the motorcyclist and that made him surprised it turns out his favorite daughter was in the biker's bonnet. Not an amazing thing indeed, but all this time his daughter was never once delivered a boyfriend. The two men who were close and had piggybacked Meira were only her father and her sister. Even if her father and sister could not deliver, Meira chose to take an angkot, and sometimes Meira's friends who were kind enough to take Meira from home to campus.

"Are you gonna keep sitting here?" ketus Alando to make Meira shocked. Because from earlier Meira just a smile of her own looking at the wide back of Alando and imagine again shooting a romantic drama in a beautiful garden.

"What?" ask Meira who is not aware that she is still on the bike.

"Stupid..." Alando seemed annoyed to face Meira, he was indeed very impatient towards anyone, "Down, you look around you." he ordered.

Meira looked around. "Oh yeah, this is Meira's house. There's mom, too." glad. Meira had given instructions that her house was here but after that Meira was washed away by her own imagination.

Meira immediately got off the bike slowly and seemed to grimace because his knee was still sore and it was seen his mother was approaching them.

"Loh, Meira... Why do you love?" ask her mother who looks anxious to see Meira's injured knee.

"Meira was humming and falling, Meira's knee hurt." Meira said. "Luckily Brother Al carried Meira and delivered until here." show Meira to Alando with a smile.

"Siang aunt." said Alando when he got off his bike and approached his mother Meira politely. Although Alando is rude to many people but if you face an older person let alone a mother, then Alando will be friendly, because it reminds him of his own mother.

"Piang. Thank you son, you've been bothering meira's relationship." Really, "Meira must be bothering you huh? Sorry son." said his mother. He knows how the nature of his beloved daughter, Meira also often upset their family with her childish nature. But it doesn't matter to them. Meira is still given a chance to live alone is a gift that they will never waste.

"Meira doesn't bother Al Al kok?" Cut Meira quickly while pursing her lips.

"Mom didn't talk to you." annoyed his mother.

"I'm just a aunt." replied Alando.

"Yes, you stop by for a while." ask Meira's mother. She was so happy that Meira had a boy friend. Although she said it was just a hangover, her mother wished they could be close. All this time his mother was very afraid that no man would want to be with this daughter. Although Meira is very sweet but she knows the lack of Meira due to an accident 3 years ago.

"No auntie, I'm straight away." subtly reject Alando.

"You used to have a banana fried auntie, you sure love."  meira's mother immediately pulled Alando into the yard of a house that already had some special chairs fried banana buyers who just want to sit back and relax accompanied by hot coffee or tea. "You sit here first, I take the fried banana." Meira's mother passed by taking the fried banana, alando felt he had no way to refuse the kindness of Meira's mother and resignedly sat waiting to be served a warm fried banana accompanied by a strange girl who did not stop smiling from earlier.

If Alando didn't know Meira, now he must have thought Meira was a crazy girl.

"Remain you smile." asked Alando ketus with his sour face.

"Meira would love to see Al Al's brother here" Meira said with a look of adoration.

While Alando is lazy to respond to Meira so he prefers to be quiet.

"Take it, son, it's still warm." Meira's mother put some fried bananas and warm tea and went to serve the buyers who kept coming.

And Meira I don't know, she's singing indistinctly. Alando thinks it's the Armada song that he recorded, and he doesn't care.

"*I'm happy to see Brother Al here."

"I'm happy to see Brother Al happy*."

Whatever Meira is, do what you want to do, inner Alando. After finishing finishing the fried banana made by Meira's mother which turned out to taste very good, Alando also said goodbye to go home. Accompanied by a wave of hands and an unclear smile the strange girl he had only known for two days.

Arriving at the room Alando threw himself down, it turns out that facing Meira is more tiring than beating one person who had a lot of bacots. Every time he came home, Alando felt very lonely and always remembered his mother. Therefore he prefers to stay at the house of Zaden or his other friends. In the past he was just alone with his mother, although his mother had to work until the afternoon Alando never lacked affection. My mom is the best mom for Alando.

Flashbacks: flashback:

Alando had just returned from playing basketball with his friends. But just want to open the door was heard quarrel between his parents, Alando decided to wait at the door.

"I will marry Diana" said Aji, father of Alando without hesitation.

"No, I won't let you marry her."

"Without your permission I will marry her anyway, I'm sick of this marriage." she shouted.

"Peace you for leaving me and your son for the sake of the street girl* that."

"Plak.. she's not a street girl*, she's the woman I love right now." her papa's slap on her mom made Alando angry and went in to protect her mom.

"GO, we can live together without you." Alando hated his father for slapping his mother for another woman.

"Based on the child does not know manners." upset his father and went outside the house.

Since then Alando never saw his father again, but since his mother died the man came again and asked to stay at his house. But let alone stay with talk even Alando lazy, he always ignored it.

That jerk, Alando wishes he didn't interfere with his life anymore.

  *     *     *

In the living room Meira's mother and father were having a light conversation while watching TV accompanied by fried bananas leftover sales and two glasses of warm tea. It was their habit to talk like this before going to bed.

"Dad.. was Meira escorted home with loe men." story happy mother.

"Male, who? College buddies?"

"Say Meira is his senior at the college, the mother had the same name Meira." explained his mother, "She is also his son polite, the mother wants him to be closer to Meira continues to be a potential ghost." I smiled in shame hoping it would come true.

"Did mom know him? What's she like?"  ask me, "I didn't just meet once." Meira's father thought of something, "Hahh... I don't mind Meira being close to any man, as long as he's kind and willing to accept Meira's flaws and take care of her."

"Yes father, this is only the hope of the mother." his mother always thought about the fate of her daughter, "Hopefully there is a sincere Meira and accept her shortcomings." that's what they always prayed for their daughter.
