Fragile
"I can make up for it Doctor" the sweet voice of a girl interrupted him between the voice of the woman.
Mother saw Elin who was standing with water that also flowed in her eyes, ah Her little daughter now also knows the condition of her brother.
"OK later please go to the pharmacy yes" Doctor Rima smiled as she directed a piece of paper containing a doctor's prescription.
Elin took a careful look at the piece of paper that had been perched in his grasp, a line of typical doctor writing that was quite difficult to understand filled his vision, 1,2,3,4,5 types of names of drugs that must be redeemed.
Is that her sister Eca's disease?
"Yes, if you'll excuse me" Doctor Rima stood up after cleaning the equipment.
Mother looked at Doctor Rima with a very grateful look.
"Thank you" said a heartfelt mother who was worried for her child lying helplessly.
"Udah kayak to anyone, I returned first" doctor Rima hugged Mother to give her spirit and as if to say everything will be fine.
Mother smiled after delivering doctor Rima outside the house.
"Your sister is okay baby, mending you take a shower ready to go to school" said Mother who can still strengthen her youngest child.
"Elin wants to nebus medicine kak Eca first yes Mother just left for school" Elin left Mother after finishing her sentence.
Mother smiled at the affection that was intertwined in the brotherhood of her children, she felt proud to have succeeded in educating her children well even though alone, he is proud because he can give love to his son.
Mother walked to the kitchen to cook porridge and breakfast, then what about the sick Eca? calm down, there is a loyal image accompanying him.
......................
A body that is not in sync with the soul can certainly make anyone who experiences this condition depressed.
The sound of feet clashing with ceramics, friction between door leaves and frames, open and closed bathroom doors, and, as well as the cold thing that kept swapping in his head every 5 minutes was enough to make the alert Eca instantly open her eyes.
Extreme pain like a thousand thorns hit the head of Eca made the girl who was forced to grimace while holding her head by giving little by little blows.
When the whack pain began to subside then he directed his net to scan the room that was definitely his.
The small white towel that was still damp was the first thing he picked up.
The creaking door diverted Eca's attention, by reflex she turned to the source of the sound as if she had been led to see it.
At the door was a figure who had been raising her, a figure who had been loving her, a figure that she thought was an angel and a figure that she loved the most so she did not want the figure to be sad, he said, she is the Mother of hope, compassion and reason she endures.
Mother pushed the door slowly even though the owner of the room still heard it, in the hands of Mother carrying a tray that has been filled with various types of food and also a medicine bag, maybe?
Mother set her eyes on the bed of her eldest daughter, ascertaining whether the daughter was awake or not. The strong woman smiled when she found her daughter was awake and sitting in good condition without a daze.
"Where do you feel, baby? is anyone sick?" Mother gave consecutive questions to Eca with her hands busy arranging the food she brought on the bedside nightstand.
Silent.
"Hey, is anyone sick?" Mother stroked the soft cheeks that contain tending to taper it.
"Dizziness dikit Bun" answered Eca with her hands grasping the hand of Mother who always rubbed her cheek.
Sweetness flooded his heart, always like this when with his mother.
"Eca eat porridge first yes, after that take medicine,ok!" the sun said with faithful hands to feed a spoon filled with porridge for Eca.
Eca received the first bribe from Mother, then the second, third feed to the porridge which had been a bowl left only half.
"Udah Bun" said Eca with the hand holding the hand of Mother who holds the spoon.
"Something more yes" persuaded Mother by still directing the spoon towards Eca.
Eca relented, she swallowed the last mouthful accompanied by the warm smile of the Mother.
Medicinal pills of various colors and sizes are already located in the palm of the Eca hand with a glass of water next to it, no wonder the medicine is so annoying:¶
One sip of the medicine finally disappeared in the Eca swallow.
"Udah Bun" said the beautiful haired girl with the hand that gave the empty glass.
"Yes now you have a break, the school is already Mother Mintain permission" replied Mother while arranging dishes and empty glasses on the tray.
Eca leaned her body on the head of the bed when the Mother was busy tidying her eating utensils earlier, Mother tidied the blanket Eca then peeked her daughter's forehead, the mother tidied, a warm smile did not forget he gave before leaving his daughter's private room.
The room was back in silence when Mother had come out, only the regular breathing and the sound of small friction became an addition to her silent impression.
Eca looked at her right finger full of cuts and bruises that vibrate, she did not know the cause why her hand this one vibrates not this time alone.
His trembling hand was squeezed firmly with eyes staring at the attic of his room, his brain rolling by constantly recalling the events of a few days ago, how he was happy to see Zayan then meet the person who made him feel a familiar and warm feeling, the night he helped the person somehow by chance or how the person turned out to be the person who had been waiting for her, the father who was always in his dreams.
Eca happy, though, very happy but as if the universe does not allow him to have a sentence called happy in his life because shortly after the idea of painful facts hit the Eca made the collapse of his defense that his father was the cause of his mother's injuries, the reason why the Mother cried at night, why the Mother had to bear the ridicule of people about her who did not have a husband, she said, and the cause of his sister crying every time she came home from school because she was bullied by her friend because she did not have a father.
Beautiful eyes that usually emit a positive light, which always strengthens the people around him, and the source of trust of others has now accommodated water there, he said, slowly but surely the circle of clear salt water flows regularly, various waterfalls that flow non-stop.
Eca smiled bitterly, her hands still intertwined squeezing each other, she rubbed her cheeks violently then buried herself in a thick blanket, crying silently.
