Namoras
Namora was tricked by her friends


Ting Ting Ting...!


The bells at the new hometown elementary school tinkled signifying that the time for the students at the elementary school was over.


Just like the previous days, all students scramble ahead of each other to get out of class. For them, the sooner it comes out, the better. It was as if the study room was just like a prison. But that's how children are. When they are off, they want to go to school, when they go to school, they want to take a day off.


Namora, a child who often gets unpleasant treatment from her classmates just sits down to meet those who are fighting for each other to get out. He tried not to follow along for fear that treatment like yesterday would repeat itself.


When all the students came out, he got up from his seat, then stepped towards the door.


It is sad indeed, for children his age who should be happy to play with other friends. But whatever the power, he's just a kid inmate who was ostracized from the association.


Sometimes he wants to play marbles with the others. However, every time he wanted to join playing together, then he would get a rejection. He is rarely expelled.


"What's wrong with them. I just want to make friends, play together and learn together. But they always isolated me, "that's how Namora told her everything she's been through to her mother. And the answer from the mother is always that. Namely, patience!.


"Mom. Later if Namora is Junior High, Namora wants her school far away. Namora is not going to be in this new village. They don't want to be friends with Namora. Later, Namora would just hitch a ride at Uncle Rio's house. Namora can go to school in Junior High on the rock hill!" The words were often spoken by Namora. In fact, almost every week he would remind his mother. It seemed like she was very worried just in case her mother would forget.

Namora continued walking down the road she used to walk. This time he had to get home. Because, he did not want his mother to worry anymore. However, again this child could not do anything when he was again confronted by Diaz, Ruben, Dudul and Rudi. This time, two more people.


Namora prayed in her heart, so that the six children who were her age did not bother her. But his hopes and prayers were not fulfilled. The proof, as soon as he almost crossed the six children, they immediately blocked his path.


"Namorah. Come here! Why are you in such a hurry?"


"Sorry Diaz. My mother told me not to be late. Please don't block my way!" Pinta Namora is worried.


"Ah. Sometimes being late is it okay to come home?! Let's play first. Don't you want to play with us?" Rudi also offered.


"Can I play with you?" Tanya Namora was happy.


"Can. We play hide and seek! You take care, let us hide. Who's first to get it, he'll take care of it!" Said the Dudul.


"All right! I'm gonna close my eyes. You can find a place to hide. I'll count to ten ya!" Namora said that she began to turn her face and close her eyes, then immediately count.


"One!!" Namora said.


"Let's just go home. Let him play alone like crazy!" Diaz said.


"Come on!" Answer the other.


"Two..!" Namora said again.


As soon as the count reached ten, Namora opened her eyes, then began to search where the six children had been hiding.


It had been almost half an hour Namora circled around between the alleyways of the people's houses, behind the fence, near the bushes of the bamboo trees, yet what she was looking for remained invisible. Sweat began to pour on the boy's forehead. He did not know that he had been bullied by them. In fact, they may all have reached their homes. It was where he knew that he would be deceived like that.


Feeling that he did not manage to find the six children, he immediately wanted to go home. However, he was worried that he would be said to be cheating. If so, the more no one would be willing to be friends with him anymore.


Finally Namora was sitting near the stump of a coconut tree that had been cut down for a long time. Later, after his fatigue is gone, he will look for the six people again.


It was already two in the afternoon, Namora still did not find the six children. Here, Namora begins to think that she has been bullied by Diaz and his friends. Now, Namora realized that at any time she would never be considered to exist by them.


There was a feeling of annoyance, anger, sadness and inferiority in his heart.


While bowing languidly, Namora also stepped her feet to immediately return home.


"Why am I being treated like this? If you don't want to be friends, I'm fine. But why would you cheat me?"


Questions filled the child's mind.


Now Namora has arrived home. And, sure enough. When she got home, her mother immediately asked her why she was late. What's more, when he saw, the uniform he was wearing was soaked with sweat.


"Why are you late Namora? Are you fighting again?" Ask the mother.


Namora shook her head in a doldrums. He sat down next to his mother and told her everything that he had been deceived by his friends.


"Prophey, son! One day, they will definitely regret for treating you badly!"


"Mom. There was an Uncle-uncle meeting Namora. He said they were friends of his father" Namora told him about his encounter with Ameng and Acong.


"Your father's friend? Did they mention names?" Ask the mother.


"There's Mom. He said, Ameng and Acong," the boy replied as he was.


"Hmmm. Why are they meeting Namora. Is it okay that Bang Tigor told you to?" Ask Mirna in my heart.


"Why are you silent? Are they really dad's best friends?" Namora asked who was astonished when she saw her mother speechless.


"Oh.., uh. Ja. They were your father's best friends. But remember Namora! Don't get too close to them!" Said the mother. I don't know what the reason is, but obviously, Mirna doesn't seem to like it if Ameng and Acong or the others approach her son.


"Why Ma'am?" Namora did not understand. It has become a habit of children who always want to know.


"It's okay. They are adults. You can't be friends with adults. Understood?" Said the mother. He knew that reason was unacceptable. But, how else. He did not want his son to be further exiled. Moreover, he knew that Ameng and Acong would not let him just see his son in the bully. Maybe they'll hit that guy later. Can be more runyam affairs.


"But Ma'am..,"


"There's no buts! You must obey the words of mother! That's the kid Sholeh his name!" Firmly the mother.


Namora no longer refutes. He immediately walked towards the dining table, because his stomach had already asked to be filled.


Seriate...
