The Struggle of a Child
My closeness to my mother
"Liyan will try to heal," I said with a face that strengthened my confidence.
"Mother hopes that what is in your dreams will soon be fulfilled." Walked busy.
"Dream?!" I muttered slowly. "What dream, Mom?" I want to know what he really wants.
"Your desire to heal." Looking at me expectantly.
I also pulled my pale lips smiling. Hearing what was said by my mother who became an encouragement for me so that I was stronger to heal.
"Liyan, if you're cured. I think you're gonna be happy?!" said my mother.
"That's for sure Mom! Liyan will never go to school again" I fully expect, if that will happen soon.
"Yes! You'll go to school like you used to every day and never miss a lesson again" said my mother, recalling my old days never having a day off.
"Liyan, so remember when it rains." Smiling looking at the pus. "Liyan always fights with Dad."
"Why dispute? Did your father not allow you to go to school?" asked my mother to look at me curiously.
"Yes, Mom. I don't want to, if Liyan goes to school in the rain, she says Liyan will be sick, haha!" A little laugh staring at the pus. "When it rains going to school it's fun." Curling both of my pale lips sweetly recalling the heavy rain that fluttered.
"Do you like rain?" ask my contact mother.
"Yes Mother. I like to play in the rain, it feels exciting, let alone crowded with friends," I said. The happiness of the past still envelops me in a friendly manner.
"If you may know! Since when don't you play rain anymore?" ask my contact mother. Walking glanced at me and sitting in the chair my father used to sit in.
"Since Dad scolded me, when I came home from school in the rain." Walking swinging my two weak legs towards my mother who had been sitting. "From there Liyan never played rain again."
"Didn't your sister try to help you play in the rain?" ask my contact mother to know.
Ha! I was a little surprised not to believe what I heard.
"No! Ana was never given a chance by Dad to take me. Ana who looks chatty and a little fierce is so scared of Dad." I said it correctly .
My mother then turned her head out, where my sister was still seen standing alone. I followed him and turned my head to see my brother.
"Your sister is so at home standing up. Does he not want to come in?" Looking up at the sky. "The sun is gone and the wind is getting colder." Feeling worried.
The unusual attention he now gave that made me and my sister so astonished. Today is not as usual, the room is always filled with singing from the sound of screeches and thumping that is devastating for those who are not strong enough to hear it.
I feel like I'm sharing walking in a dream. Sometimes I try to blink my two dim eyes to wake up.
Happy is sure. What's sad anymore because the two have approached me in a way to change.
My dim eyes still saw my sister who was so hard to put on. "I'll call him in. Mom." I walked right away.
"No need. He will surely come in. Just leave him outside first. Who knew he could improve a little?!" my mother told me as if she had found out about my sister.
My weak legs stopped for a moment. I turned my body towards him. "But, Mum...". Feeling doubtful and doubtful.
"But what? You're afraid you're gonna get mad at your sister because you didn't call her." Staring at me with a flat face. "You should never be afraid of your sister! Your sister, I don't think I'm gonna scold you just because you didn't call her."
I'm more and more convinced that he knew about our conversation outside. The worry and panic also haunt me more so that makes me restless.
"No, Ma." I'm a little afraid of my father, if my brother hasn't been in there by the time my father gets home I can be bad.
"Your sister will be in soon." My contact mother still sees it.
Spontaneous me who was feeling restless twisted my body seeing my sister's activities outside. My sister is so happy. He shifted his position from where he stood to another place just below the guava tree that had many leaves strewn about due to the cold twilight breeze.
My sister looks busy playing with dried leaves located above the ground. "Sir, why don't you come in?" I wonder a little scream.
"A little while, brother!" his shout while turning his head dropped his body crouched on the ground.
"Let's be angry, if you don't come in." Walking back out left my mother and approached my own busy sister.
"Dad won't be angry, Brother." Raised my head a little bit to see me.
"Don't be too sure of your own opinion" I said.
"I'm not sure for sure, brother." My sister continued to arrange the dried leaves until they were shaped.
"Again what?" I ask who saw it so astonished. Stand up straight near him.
"Create a house - roamhan is the same little doll," he replied with a happy smile.
"Why is Brother out?" ask my sister who controlled the bottom of the tree earlier.
"Sister wants to take you in" I replied.
"I'm not afraid that you're angry to see me here." My sister continued to arrange the leaves according to her will.
"Yes" I replied spontaneously.
"No need to be afraid. Already, Brother just go back in, there!" the urge of my sister swinging her hand into the air signaled to drive me away.
"We're just coming in" I asked to stop my sister.
"Engga! I don't want to! I still want to play," he replied, still struggling with his stubbornness.
My two dim eyes still looked at my sister intently. He was so comfortable as if he was under the shelter of a savior.
"When did you know about this toy?" I asked with my eyes admiring my sister.
"Busan," he answered immediately startled me.
"Should!" Followed my sister with my weak hands. "So can do it too." Forgetting for a moment my illness.
"Liyan! Do you two want to linger outside?"yelled mommy connect us.
"No, ma'am" I replied.
I instantly removed the dried leaves I was holding, shaking both palms while standing up.
"Sir, let's go in." Pulling my brother's arm slowly.
"Yes, wait a minute!" Throw away the leaves he was holding and then get up and stand upright with one hand.
"Clean your clothes! I'll be mad if you look dirty." I'm going around cleaning my sister's clothes.
"My clothes aren't so dirty, sister," he whispered. "I'm just playing leaves."
"Yes, I know, but you had dirty hands, you put them on your clothes" I said.
My sister shut up, then remembered. "Oh, yes Brother! I forgot that there were wet leaves because they were buried."
"So I saw it from inside the house" I said.
My brother's hand helped me clean his clothes.
"Oh, yes Brother. Why did Brother earlier inside with Mother Brother." Raised my head to see me.

Seriate...
What would it be, if a grudge got you stuck in a marriage without Love?
"Marry me" Exel.
"What if I refuse?" Tare.
Can Dara maintain her Household, with the person who married her only because of Revenge? He himself did not know what the cause was,
And can a Jelita who in fact is tomboyish, make her super cold and flat husband fall in love with her?
"You're gonna have to take a hit on what you did to Amara."
"Do what you want, do I don't care" Jelita.
