My Power Of Math Fantasies
11.1: Riku

Everything needs money, but money is not everything. The desire of a person to be happy is different, they have their own dose. Yes, in general, happiness means success which can be seen or touched.

But look at the people out there. What do you think success is like? There are people who managed to have a job with a large salary, but in fact the work of the person is not in accordance with his passion. And yes, he felt overwhelmed and thought that he was unhappy.

On the other hand, there are people who are happy just because they live well. Getting food twice a day is very grateful.

It's just that there's a child who always wonders in his mind; if someone is rich, has both parents who love him, wants to earn money from his own work, having above-average talent and skill, being smart, having lots of friends, and everything feels so smooth. Is he happy?

It must be very happy dong.

Only strangely there is someone who is mentioned with these characteristics even feel unhappy. More precisely he was very curious about the true meaning of happiness.

"Pa, ma'am, I feel so happy, don't I?"

Yes, it was the child I mentioned earlier myself. An 11-year-old boy questioned it with sparkling eyes. As usual, before his parents answered his parents stroked his head.

"For so long I have been very happy, everything I want always papa and mother give. I want toys, hp, and other stuff always there. I also want to be managed about the look of the same people who want to play with me also there. But why, mom, I always feel like there's something missing?"

Smiling father. He hit his son's shoulder slowly. However, the boy did not understand what his father was thinking.

"Riko, you've been happy a long time. It's just that because your wish quickly materialized you can't really feel that happiness."

What does this have to do with a desire that quickly materializes?

The boy named Riko wondered in his mind that.

"So happy that means we have to wait, pa?"

"There's a truth, too, just that if you want to be truly happy Ko, you have to have a desire, a dream. What do you want to achieve with your own efforts. You should have it Riko."

His father seriously explained to his son very well.

"Dreams ... Yeah." yeah."

What with having a dream Riko can be happy. Riko wondered in her heart.

"What is a dream? Oh yes, dreams are what I want to achieve with my own efforts. So what should I do?"

From then on Riko began to look for what Riko should dream of. I went through everything and achieved a lot. But long after that, I started to feel alone. I still don't know what dream I should be looking for, maybe even looking for the dream itself which is my goal.

The problem was that the people around Riko felt so disturbing to him. The people who wanted to be friends with him felt like there was nothing sincere in Rikk's eyes. It was lazy for him to think of friends because friends around him were like sycophants.

Riko's friends come because they feel lucky nearby to the point that he himself feels that he is only used. But in spite of all that Riko again thought that Social life is indeed just a reciprocal relationship.

As long as the people around Riko are useful then they will be needed and vice versa as well as himself to them. If they are already useless it is better to be left alone than they are just a burden on his mind. That was what occurred to little Riko's head.

Indirectly Riko even become a person who thirsts for attention. Whatever Riko does now is just to get attention.

"Is this what you call a dream?"

****

"Consideration - attention - attention! Look at me, look at me. You are much lower than me. Come look at me, am I not a genius.

"Huahah, this is called happiness!"

Riko's chest is beating so fast. At the age of 16, Riko was unable to control her pleasure. The look on his face he could not control also when alone.

"Calm down, calm down. Keep your image (impression) you must be able to control yourself in order to control everything" Riko told himself.

Star syndrome, is that what Riko started feeling? Riko knew it herself. But he can still hold himself, more precisely he wants to control everything rather than just admiration and praise from others.

"There's no doubt you're the best kid."

"I .... The finest? "

Riko's cynical smile really could not stand it, he wanted to laugh loudly in the room of his papa. Riko's heartbeat felt more different than usual.

Isn't Riko craving attention. Riko wants praise and makes others dependent on her. But there was something strange that he felt.

The sound of Riko's breathing went up and down. His father became worried. He held her shoulder and saw her face.

Riko saw clearly the surprised face of her papa. Spontaneous Riko was also surprised. Why does his father see himself like that, his father sees his son as if he sees someone else he does not know. Riko rushed out.

"Riko! Are you okay."

Riko faintly heard the voice of her father. Riko ran out of the house. The offer letter I received immediately he was torn without thinking anymore.

The clouds are so dark that they cover the earth. The wind blows so hard. The rain storm is coming soon. Very deeply imbued with what Riko felt.

More foreign feelings than ever. Is that really attention? Wasn't Riko already endowed with everything. Why else would he try to get his name attention. Without trying, others will praise him, right? His father will continue to watch over him.

"What do you think."

Riko's running pace is getting slower. The cold weather began to spread throughout his body even though the taste ability in his skin was no longer able to function properly because his mind was only filled with questions that were clearly the answer.

"He is my father, it is only natural that parents pay more attention to their children than anyone else. The task of parents is to educate and give the best for the development of their children. "

In the child protection law has been strongly affirmed in this country: Nurturing, maintaining, protecting, and educating children; Growing children in accordance with their abilities, interests, and talents; Prevent children from getting married at an early age; provide character education and inculcation of child ethics.

So why else would Riko have to think too much about the attention of her own father. This was a normal thing for his father.

The water starts to drizzle, slowly they wet Riko's entire body. Riko started walking so slowly.

"Why do I keep thinking about it. The surprised face of my father completely shadows my head."

Riko took a breath hoping that her mind would soon be switched.

The cold began to feel. Blowing breath RIko even let out a dew that could be seen due to the light of street lights. So deserted this place without any riders coming out. Where it may be that the rain is getting heavier plus the day is getting darker they will come out without a clear purpose. Yes, a big exception to Riko.

"If only I could hear someone's heart directly and know the course of action they would decide. That way I can control someone more. Use them appropriately so I don't have to bother anymore like this. "

Riko held her heart. He thinks, for what reason should I run like this. He felt very childish.

Riko felt the weight of her eyes to open wide, she was lazy to wrinkle her skin on the face. Lazy expression to express what he really feels. Without expression, others will consider themselves so flat.

"Huh ..."

Just twist the logic.

The sound of rain is getting louder. Eve around Riko as if something had changed. Riko has a pretty responsive hunch. That uncomfortable feeling made his heartbeat more clearly heard in his ears.

"Haff,"

The wind is getting stronger. Riko closed her eyes, hesitating to look back. He felt someone was following him.

As she expected, as Riko turned around, the person with a large and muscular body stood still looking at her.

"What do you want?" ask Riko.
