Returning to set foot in the capital made Rihana's feeling of thumping uneasy.
Once when she was five years old, she was here with her mother. And mama showed me two magnificent mansions.
Said his mother's one's grandparents' house, the other's her papa's house.
But since only once did they visit him, little Rihana had forgotten. Moreover, the capital city is growing very rapidly.
After returning home from Jakarta, a year later his mother was often sick. And finally her mother came home without her understanding why she and her mother ended up in a parlour with a very good babysitter mother to them
No grandfather, grandmother, om, aunt, not even a man called papa in his life.
The luxurious and magnificent house they had come to was long empty. The occupants only occasionally go home, said the security guard who guarded the house.
While the other house he went to, even made his mother cry. Then take her away
At that time Rihana leaned her face to see what her mother saw behind the window of the taxi.
A pair of men and women who were carrying a very beautiful little girl, were out of her car and would approach a very large sweet arum seller. Even just this time Rihana saw such a big sweet arum.
Rihana also wanted to buy it, but not so because he saw tears rolling on his mother's cheeks.
"Mama why?" rihana asked in surprise and was also sad. For some reason, he could also feel the sadness of his mother back then.
"Road sir" said his mother to the taxi driver, hugging him with a shaky chest.
Rihana had seen the man looking at the taxi they were leaving.
Her mother left without any explanation. It's just that his mother told him to live well after he left.
Rihana was nurtured lovingly by the mother of the orphanage. His sadness was reduced because of his random residence by the orphanage children his age at that time. But one by one they go to be foster children.
No one wants to raise Rihana as a foster child, but the mother always refuses if anyone is interested in her. Because the mandate of his mother so that the mother of the orphanage who always look after him.
The financial condition of the home is difficult. Fortunately after graduation, Rihana was accepted to work at a large construction company in the capital. The mother of the parlor had to take it off. Rihana's departure was to help ease the finances of the nursing home mother.
Her mother is now almost fifty-five years old. Usually he is able to support the home without the help of donors. He had a very large convection business. It's just that the disaster struck the convection business of those who suffered a severe fire due to electrical short circuit from the business place next to it.
Indemnity that does not make the financial situation of the home quite disturbed. The mother of the orphanage was forced to sell the house and bring Rihana and five children who are still in SD to a new place. They left the city that had already left many traces of memories for Rihana. Memories of his mother and also Alexander, the man he liked during High School.
Rihana knew they could not just rely on living from the sale of their homes and generous assistance from the local government as compensation for the convection business fire.
Finally, the mother of the home was forced to let him go. Of course with tears. So is his little sister.
Rihana stared back at the boarding room that had been cleared was in an alley, so the price was not too expensive. He can also rely on ojol to go and go home from the office. After a few months of work, Rihana will buy a motorcycle.
Three-by-three rooms with four bathrooms are outside. There are only ten rooms. Rihana was lucky to be the last owner and was on the second floor. The boarding room only accepts girls only.
Rihana does not want to choose mixed costs even though there are cheaper prices and do not enter the alley . She's afraid. For him, his safety is more important. And Rihana is happier if they are in a group with one gender. Moreover, said his boarding mother, who inhabits his boarding house in addition to workers such as herself also female students. Of course he won't be hard to adjust.
Rihana had been stale with one of the boarding children. Looks coed. Because the arrival hour is a clock for office workers, so the cost situation is quite quiet. The student also passed him when he was going to college, probably.
About Alexander. A handsome guy who doesn't talk much but always looks at him in silence.
Only occasionally they chatted, it was very short because Rihana's heart was always pounding if it was nearby. His tall stout body, fragrant perfume and handsome face. Hypnotizingly.
For three years the classmates did not make their relationship special. Just stay that way. Rihana was quite insecure with women who have a crush or juxtaposed with her male idol.
Rihana actually does not have any advantages. Said her friend she was pretty and sweet. Also clever. Rihana knows there are some male friends and his upperclassmen who pay attention to him. But Rihana always avoids if anyone starts to lead in that direction.
Rihana still knows himself. Rihana is still embarrassed to tell them that he does not have a papa, even though his papa name is listed in the report and birth certificate. Iskandardinata Council.
But that figure had never met him until now. He also did not know her. His friends also know that he lives in an orphanage and his mother became one of the caretakers there. When they asked him where his father was, Rihana could never answer. Also if they ask about his grandparents. Rihana always silences. Until they never asked again.
Rihana once asked her mother, but her mother only cried. And Rihana never asked again. He was also quite happy to live with his mother, mother and children of the orphanage who always come and go.
If papa and grandpa, grandma and even om and tantenya do not care about his condition and mother, why does he think about it further. Rihana is already quite dizzy with the lessons in his school.
Until the night of farewell when their graduation in the third grade of High School arrives. They celebrated at a five-star hotel that turned out to belong to the family of Alexander Monoarfa.
The farewell party was also at the same time Alexander's farewell party with him and his friends. Because their family is moving to England. Alexander will also study at one of the most prestigious campuses costing millions of dollars there.
That's when Rihana was swept away. He realized the gaping gap between them. It hurts not to bleed.
Alexander just left. But he said the timing of the first-class brand was still fresh in Rihana's memory.
You said, why don't I want to be with you?
You don't know, I want to be with you. But you're too tall for me to reach
