Farah is getting ready to pick up her two sisters. His eyes still looked puffy until he quickly covered them with a little thick concealer and powder.
Since last night Farah called Aisyah, she somehow missed the little girl so much. Farah wants to take her two younger siblings to walk in the mall and watch an animated film that is playing in the cinema.
Farah tried to be strong, after yesterday parting with Hilman, now her heart was relieved. The burden now begins to lift, he does not need to lie. And now he's riding on a motorcycle and waiting for his two sisters on the corner.
"Sir...!!" aisha shouted, she ran towards Farah and hugged her.
"Slows will fall." Farah rubbed her sister's hair gently, the scent of shampoo still smelling from her. Very invigorating.
" Where's fadil?" tannya
"Kak Fadil is still at home, the mother told Brother Fadil to buy food so Aisyah was told to go first" said Aisyah
" What are you doing again?" again, Farah had not met her father for a long time and wanted him to return his father's card but there was no chance. If you meet at home there will definitely be her annoying stepmother.
" Dad was sitting on the porch earlier, Aisyah already said goodbye to dad if you want to go with sister. But Aisyah said don't tell mom and dad to say yes" Aisyah pursed her lips, she was forced to lie to her mother so as not to get scorned.
" Sister, today you look very moody and sad. But when asked by Ais, he just smiled and then kept silent not knowing why."
Farah only smiled when she heard her sister tell her story but in her heart she wondered what her father was thinking.
" Maybe you are tired of work, Ais if you see you are tired do not forget to make a warm tea drink so that you feel a little better."
"Sister, I've been pajitin father too. He said Ais was the most obedient and devoted father." he smiled showing a row of hollow teeth
"This is what the village road has many holes." kelakar Farah as he touched his sister's chin
"Ahh, Brother Farah rese!" Aisyah
"Sister!!" shouted Fadil from far away, he ran fast and frenzied
"Slow down, don't run. Brother must be waiting for you." Farah opened her sling bag and gave her sister a bottle of mineral water
"Fear to miss, just now immediately pull the mother's pump again go to the neighbor's house." Fadil tried to regulate his running breath
"Dil, there's another one on the shoulder, it looks like he won't come with us." Farah glanced at her little sister, and Fadil understood the direction of her brother's eyes.
"Later to stay in angkot to be taken by the driver." coda Fadil
"Sir Fadil, ishhh..." Aisyah pouted and lightly hit Fadil's arm
"Let's go." take Farah
On the way Farah did not use angkot, he used the mode of busway transportation to be more time efficient, considering the area of Jekardah is so jammed.
They entered the luxury mall area in Central Jakarta, unlike usual this time Farah wanted to go around and eat in this place.
"Sister, brother didn't choose the wrong place? Said Temen Fadil, here is very expensive food." whispered in Farah's ear
" It's okay, brother really wants to come here." Farah also felt surprised why he really wanted to come to this mall when the price of goods and food in this place was very expensive.
" Sister, eating only in indomerite is cheap. There is also selling coffee - coffee, bread, sausages also exist. If you come here later brother's money runs out." whispered Fadil, he still insisted to get out of this place.
"It's okay, you just calm down." Farah took her two younger siblings into a bookstore that also sold school supplies.
"What would I buy?" tannya
" Buy bag, okay?"
"Can, which one?" Farah followed her sister's direction, who was now heading towards the shelf containing the bag.
A servant approached them and asked what they needed.
"Is there anything we can help you with?" he said politely, but the servant's eyes looked at them from head to toe and held a smile as if he was mocking. Yes, at this time they only use sandals and shoes in style, not branded but still look clean and worth wearing.
"That bag." Aisyah refers to a pink bag with a picture of a unicorn located at the top.
"Wait a minute, I'll get it." The waiter lazily picked up a wooden stick that was commonly used to unload goods from above.
"It's so good, sister, Ais wants this." the little girl's eyes were so sparkling at her favorite bag.
He rubbed his eyes and tried to count the rows of numbers that looked so tight, looking at employees and the price tag.
"Du. two million." Farah stuttered
"Yes right, miss." replied the waiter.
"Later buy it, you will already have a bag at home." Fadil pulled his sister's hand to put the bag down and left the store. Hearing the price of a bag that is so fantastic makes itself goosebumps, as good as what the bag is so expensive. If calculated - count, he can get twenty bags even more if buying a similar bag like that in the market.
"But I like my brother." Aisyah back, her lips began to cone
" Buy no?!" ask the waiter a little
" No, it's too expensive. We buy it at the market." whispered Fadil in his brother's ear.
Farah could only exhale her long breath. Aisyah bags want to be fairly expensive and in accordance with the quality of the material. Two million rupiah just to buy a school bag, a price that is very choking Farah's neck but for Aisyah, she will not hesitate to spend money.
"My savings are still a lot, fortunately the severance money from the restaurant has been transferred." he murmured inwardly.
"I bought it." replied Farah, "Fadil, you take whatever you want.book, whatever school equipment you need, take it."
" It's not necessary! Fadil's school equipment was still plentiful." but his eyes glared at Aisyah in annoyance. Fadil understood how her brother slammed bones for them and this time Fadil did not want to trouble her brother.
" Come on, take it. "persuade Farah
" Fadil does not want, even if it takes Fadil books can buy at the grocery store owned by Abah Husen. There if the money is less also can not pay kayak here all expensive. "the lyrics in Farah's ears and greeted with a laugh Farah is so crisp. His sister is what she is and ceplas ceplos.
After they paid, Farah took them to the shoe store. He bought two pairs of school shoes for his two younger siblings, while he bought sandals with three-centimeter heels. Sandals that are quite comfortable for pregnant women, the latest output sandals at a decent price drain the wallet for Farah. After they finished buying shoes, they walked to a Japanese restaurant. I don't know why he wants sushi and ramen. Farah used to eat Japanese food because it was treated mba Riri who was celebrating her birthday, that was three years ago. And today he wants it.
Farah's stomach hurt like a cramp. Several times throbbing but Farah did not care, he only focused on pleasing his two younger siblings.
"Are Japanese dishes delicious, brother?" ask Aisyah
"Nob."
" It's better where the same baso bang Ali." Aisyah baso subscription located near the market.
"Yes, the time of Japanese cuisine is equated with baso. That's so different!" sela Fadil's. They're walking around looking for sushi booths.
"Unfortunately Brother Fadil has eaten sushi, how do you know it's different?" Fadil can only swallow his saliva, he only ever saw Japanese food shows but never once tasted it.
"Never." He felt embarrassed and threw his face the other way. At the same time, he saw a stranger. His face was similar to his sister's friend who had been met in the corner of the house alley.
" Brother Farah." Fadil patted his brother's shoulder.
" Wasn't that guy a big brother's friend when we met in the alley near the house?"
Farah looked back, she took two steps back in surprise. Seeing Keken for the first time after almost two months of going to another city. Farah's stomach throbbed again as if giving a sign that she had met her father. He saw Keken with three other men, unlike usual Keken look neat with a coat and look serious face. He looks handsome.
Farah tried to keep a smile and wanted to say hello but her stomach was throbbing hard again.
" Isa..." Farah held her stomach, she,
" It looks like you know that your father is here and you want to say hello to him, son!" murmured Farah in the heart, she stroked her stomach back.
The closer Farah's chest grew rumbling, not expecting to meet the man who impregnated her. As Farah took a closer look, the man looked thin, his face a little thin, hair a little shaggy and thin mustachioed unlike two months ago who always looked neat without a mustache.
Farah was so disappointed when the man just walked past her without even looking at her. As if I didn't know. His eyes followed wherever the man went until his back was no longer visible.
"Sister, he's a big brother's friend, right? Why not say hello?" asked Fadil, he glanced at his brother who had daydreamed and saw the man leave.
"Maybe he's busy." replied Farah, but his eyes could not cover his sadness. Farah was a little teary.
"When you eat baso, you don't have a taste for sushi" Farah said
"okay!" Aisyah was so excited to hear the word baso. " Baso mang Ali yes brother, Ayesha wants that" he asked
"Yes." Yeah." Farah tried to smile to cover up her sadness. And Fadil could not be lied to, as if he understood that the brother was sad after seeing the man.
