Risda woke up from her sleep but did not get the figure of her mother next to her, she felt something was missing and almost shed her tears. He soon rose from his sleep to seek the whereabouts of his mother, and he was relieved to find his mother who was praying at dawn not far from him.
"I think I've turned around without saying goodbye to Riada," Gumannya slowly.
Risda also returned to lay his body without participating in the morning prayers, it has become his habit that always leaves the body prayers. He complained about his day but he forgot about his creator, from his sleep Risda was staring at his mother who was praying.
Seeing people pray makes Risda feel peaceful, but somehow his soul is still unable to cooperate. After finishing the prayer, his mother also rose towards the basket of clothes owned by Risda, Risda who was lazy was rarely washed clothes.
"Oh my goodness, Ris. Since when was this not washed? The garbage piled up like this,"
Risda who still heard the words immediately scoffed while having no sin, Risda also rose from her bed and sat on the bed of her room.
Risda turned to look at the basket of dirty clothes that fertilized like a mountain moved, Risda wash clothes every week, every week, if he is soybeans, he may just wash his school uniform while the other clothes will be left piled up.
"Maybe 2 years ago, Bun. End of the sprain wash your hands," replied Risda.
"The price of washing is expensive, Ris. If Mother has money later Mother will buy it, for a while use the hand first. The cost of your spp is also not cheap, not yet sangu money as good,"
"Yes Bun, Risda understands."
"Why is this not washed? After the bath was washed so that ngak numpuk kayak gini, if the pile continues to be a nest of insects how? Does Risda want to sleep with insects?"
"Risda ngak sempet, Bun. Risda left at 6 am and sometimes misfortune, continued to go home at 6 pm, how do you want to wash clothes? Later even ngak dry because ngak in the sun, if dried out later ngak good because it can be made a place where ghosts lean so it must be washed again,"
"Who said that?"
"Mother Mother Teacher who is in school," replied Risda innocently.
Hearing the answer from Risda made her mother sigh. Actually in Islam there is no prohibition on drying clothes at night. Even that is legitimate, there is no term clothes that are dried will be used blankets by demons and the like. Because it is just a myth of the people of old times.
The reason is different, some believe that if drying clothes at night will be worn a blanket by the devil, he said, and there are also those who are afraid if drying at night will be cheered and used as a tool for shamans.
We need to be careful for the second question, usually so our clothes will be taken to the shaman to send usages or others, he said, and it often happens without us realizing that there are envious neighbors so they are silent will take our clothes and be brought to shaman.
"That's just a myth, Risda. There is no prohibition like that, dipake satan is diginiin satan is, does not exist,"
"So, tell him that, Bun. We're gonna have to re-wash his clothes, do the job twice,"
"Keep that, don't you wash your clothes? There is even made a nest of dedemit at home. Is Risda going to sleep with Demit?"
Hearing the speech immediately made Risda silent, maybe he was wrongly caught by the words of the Teachers at his school, hearing the speech immediately made Risda creep if until her clothes made a nest at home.
"No, Bun. But Risda's tired,"
"Worth if nyuci not much, if many will be gini, tired mulu."
"Yes yes, Risda will do it. Next time do not stack like this again, deh,"
"Yes, I've been hunting for a bath, after that eat and go to school."
"Risda never took a morning shower, the air was really cold, Bun. Risda can't stand the cold,"
"Oh my God, so all this time if you want to go to school rarely take a shower? Keep bathing when?"
"With time to go home from school,"
Risda who was never guided by his parents also made his own rules for himself, and it has become a habit that is not easy to change. For 8 years, he used things that made him comfortable, he did not want to listen to the advice of anyone about him.
The habit makes him feel free, the habit will not be able to be changed easily, whatever has become a habit will not be able to be changed. Therefore, changing something that has become a habit will not be able to quickly, but it takes a long time to be able to change the habit.
Again, the answer immediately made the Goddess shake her head, whether her daughter was what she was today. Risda was really much different from the others, her daughter was very difficult to manage herself.
Growing up without guidance from people closest to him, making it difficult for a child to do so. Without guidance will make a child very difficult to be told or advised because of his habit of always living freely without anyone forbidding.
Risda showed her head, she rushed into the bathroom to wash her face to make it fresher. After he immediately returned to his room to change his clothes, Risda did not find his mother in the room so he immediately looked for her.
"Bone! Mother!" Shouted Risda looking for her mother.
He also felt relieved when he saw his mother who was drying her clothes, not long after his mother immediately told him to eat at home. Usually Risda will eat at her grandmother's house but this time she eats at home, and the one who cooks is her mother.
"Where? Tastes good?"
"Such a boy, as Risda had imagined. Mother is great when cooking,"
"You also have to learn to cook, someday you will be someone else's wife. If you don't learn to cook from now on, how will you eat?"
"There's a delivery, Bun. Risda can not cook, let alone cook, enter the kitchen if you want to make noodles doang."
"Risda likes to eat instant noodles? Not much, not good for health. Mending rice, don't eat instant mulu noodles,"
"Yes Bun," replied Risda while enjoying her meal. "Where do you want to focus on eating rice? Rice is rare for Risda, yes by forced Risda to eat instant noodles," Inner No screaming.
After eating, Risda immediately put it in his home kitchen, he had never washed his own dishes all this time. If advised himself must be directly insecure and afraid to meet with people who advise him, whether the character is like that or because of the condition of his family.
Risda used to be a very cheerful person, open with her family and even children who did not want to keep quiet. However, now that Risda is very quiet in her own family, she will show her true attitude if she meets someone who is able to make her comfortable.
Risda seems to not recognize the people around him, even he rarely interacts socially with his own brother. He does not even know or know his own neighbors, as he rarely interacts with Risda.
His neighbor died, an accident or something else he did not know. Risda really closed with anyone, but his rude attitude only when schooled and outside the village.
"Risda went to school first huh, Bun." Risda lirih.
"Yes, later in the afternoon Mother immediately back from work yes, do not run at home. So a smart kid yeah, a real school,"
Hearing the speech immediately made both eyes glassy Risda, but the two had just met but had to be separated this quickly. There was a sense of discomfort in Risda's heart with the word, he dropped his embrace in the arms of the Mother.
Risda immediately cried there with a cry without a sound, he did not want to part quickly. His mother also did not want to do that, but she had a dependant to return to work for the sake of her last child, if she did not return to work then where the money to support and raise Risda.
"Risda does not want Mother to return, Risda wants to be with Mother," said Risda lirih and can feel heartbreaking.
There is a sense that is not able to be told, the Goddess did not know about her child, although her son was so strong all this time but she kept so many wounds alone. From his embrace alone can find out how much burden he carried so far, but his mouth was tightly closed so as not to tell anything to his mother.
Not because of the threat from anyone who makes Risda speechless, but Risda does not want to make her mother worried about what Risda has been going through so far that will make her mother more sad.
"Rissda..." The words of the Goddess stopped as Risda continued her words.
"Risda knows this is all for Risda, Mother of work for Risda's school allowance and for Risda's school fees. Risda only wants a day together with Mother, is it too difficult? It has been months Risda did not meet with Mother, once met was only a few hours. Risda knows Risda's desire is very difficult for Mother, so let Risda hug Mother for a moment."
The speech looked very heartbreaking, no matter how much longing Risda had for her mother, Risda really wanted to be with her mother like other friends. However, it is very difficult to realize for Risda, his wishes are only simple but will not be possible to be realized.
As simple as Risda's desire so far, but to make it happen is like going to ride a butterfly, and it will never be real. It may be a legend that has never been known, and it is not real.
"Risda, Maafin Mommy yes, because there has never been time for Risda all this time. When Risda succeeds later, Mommy will accompany Risda and stop working, but now the responsibility of Mommy is quite large. If it doesn't work, then how will it be?"
"Risda knew that, Mommy had said it several times, and even Risda had memorized the word. Risda did not intend to make Mother stop working because Risda, Risda only asked for a day so that Risda could feel what friends Risda felt. Risda wants to be noticed by Mother like others, Risda wants to be fed by Mother, Risda also wants to be made provision like others."
Risda expressed her heart to the mother, her mother who understood it was immediately rushed to the kitchen to prepare special supplies Risda. Seeing it made Risda cry, she had never felt it, but this time her mother really made it with her own hands.
"Who's mother?" Tanya Beautiful who just came home from shopping.
"Make Adekmu provisions," replied Dewi who was still struggling with the provision of Risda.
"You're Beautiful to help?" Ask Beautiful again.
"No need to."
After that, Dewi also handed over a box of supplies in the house to Risda, with pleasure Risda also received it. Risda really felt happy when made such supplies by his own mother.
"It's over, I'm off to school. Later you will be late again" said his mother.
Risda immediately put a box of these supplies into his bag, he wanted to bring the supplies to school. Surely this time his friends will be surprised to see Risda yany carrying provisions, and not as usual.
"Yes Bun. Yaudah, Risda left first yes, assalamualaikum Mommy."
"Waalaikumussalam, heart on the road, Ris. If you cross your heart, the big vehicle is now on a speeding scramble for the sake of chasing the target,"
"Watch the Princess!"
With the spirit of Risda kissed his mother's hand, after which he rushed away from the house by riding his bicycle. Risda felt very happy because it was made by his mother, it seemed so ordinary but was able to make Risda happy.
*****
Risda entered his classroom with pleasure, he saw the figure of Afrenzo passing by. Risda hurried to approach Afrenzo, seeing a blue mark on the tip of his left lip and temple.
"Lo why, Renzo? Why is it bonyok like that?" Risda asked in surprise when she saw the battered Africanzo.
"It's not your business" replied Afrenzo coldly and still cool as usual.
"Gue medicin, huh? You're going to meet me, so I have to pay attention to you."
"No need,"
"Renzo, don't worry about the times. It's not my first time doing it, it's never been before, is it?"
"Gue doesn't need that,"
"Have been quiet, don't resist too much."
Risda rushed to pull the hand of Afrenzo to rush away from the place. Feeling his hand being pulled suddenly made Africzo have to obey where Risda will take him away, without rejection.
Looking at the two who were holding each other together made everyone shocked. Africanzo is very difficult to guess, little bit bonyok and little bit healed. Only Risda dared to hold the hand of Afrenzo like that, it made everyone look at him with a gaze that did not believe what they saw.
Now both are in the UKS room to treat the wound on the face of Afrenzo. Risda told him to sit on a stool in the room, while he was busy choosing drugs that he did not know about.
"Lo's weird, Renzo. Very strange," said Risda while choosing a cure for Afrenzo.
"Why?" Ask Afrenzo.
"Lo can defend himself, but why can you get battered like that try? Lo even the martial arts coach, you should fight the person who mukulin lo it. Why do you just shut up and until the bonyok like that,"
"Gue can't fight him" said Afrenzo briefly.
"Huh? How could? Is he a martial artist? And more good than you? Who's she?"
"Take me,"
Hearing that answer immediately made Risda glare at Afrenzo, how could his father actually do such a thing to Afrenzo. Risda really does not believe what is being said by Afrenzo.
"What's? Why that?" Risda asked a little if a father did such a thing to his son.
"It's none of your business."
Even if he threw his face away from Risda, Risda did not realize that now the hand of Afrenzo was clenched firmly. Risda then touched the wound of Afrenzo with cotton that had been slowly drugged the land, he was afraid that if Afrenzo was in pain.
"Akhs... Must hurt huh?" Risda asked when she touched the wound.
Risda who was treating but herself who was squealing in pain afterwards, saw that it made Afrenzo immediately snap his head slowly, and smiled faintly at Risda.
"It hurts, Renzo. But your smile is good, and so is better than having to be expressionless as always,"
Risda also returned to treat the battered face of Afrenzo, after which both immediately rushed out of the room to return to their respective classes.
