The Struggle of a Child
Chat in the middle of the road
My legs followed my sister.
"Definitely good food?! Wow! Right, it's delicious! My brother is hungry." Both of my eyes opened wide.
"Sir, wait a minute!" My sister stopped my hand. "Sister's hair is still a mess."
My reflexes were surprised and held onto my hair. "Sister is already combing it. Where might be a mess ?" Holding my hair.
"Where's the mess from?!" my sister mocked me.
"Let's! Your hair is the same. Messy," my dream.
"I haven't been left out, 'Sister." My sister held her hair. He immediately stood in front of the mirror and combed his hair.
"Sister, don't spend it, yeah." My sister saw me from the mirror.
"But the food is good!" my toilet while gulping.
My sister turned her head straight towards me. "But 'kan. You can't eat that food."
The spoon I held slipped off. "Yes, you're right Ana. Brother's sick."
"That knows! This means it's for me." My sister smiled. "Sister's dear mother was right, if Dad said, cook my favorite food." Staring at tempting dishes.
I could only swallow the sadness of seeing my sister who took the fried rice and an omelet. Smelling the aroma made my stomach grow louder so hard that my sister immediately turned towards me.
"What's that sound?" Looking at me suspiciously.
"There's nothing! What's the sound?" I pretended not to know. Little shy.
"Stying the sound of worms in the stomach," led my brother innocently. "Pff!" Holding laughter.
Instantly I was embarrassed, a little bit of my face held back an annoyed frown while squeezing the fingers. "Where is such a worm?!" my pretext was to remove my sister's suspicions.
"So, what's that sound? How come, it sounds so loud, brother?" ask my sister to get curious.
"Sister doesn't know either" I said hiding from my sister.
Both of my brother's eyeballs were still looking at me suspiciously. He walked while holding a plate filled with fried rice while sitting down, leaving me who was still standing in front of the table to take my breakfast with a special side dish that was in accordance with the doctor's advice to me so that I would get well soon.
My weak legs stepped over to my sister and sat down next to her.
"Sister! Big brother doesn't comb Brother's hair anymore?!" asked my sister to joke at me.
Both my eyeballs reflexively I turned to look at him. "Hair?" ask me in wonder.
"Yes. Brother's hair!" he swallowed his rice. "Haha!" His crisp laughter woke up my father's voice.
"Liyan! Laughs ready for that?" asked my father to scream from his room.
My sister immediately stopped closing her lips tightly and lowered her head to swallow her breakfast until it ran out .
While I was still confused to answer my father's question. My two gentle neutrals looked at my sister back while thinking about my father. My weak hands continued to bribe the rice while thinking of finding the best answer for my father.
"You have to have breakfast fast, if you want to go to school," my father said firmly.
"Yes, Dad," I replied, sounding into my father's ear, turning my head to look at my sister sitting beside me. I was surprised. "Ana you...". Looking at my sister who hurriedly stood up while holding the plate by widening her eyeballs.
My henchman sister kept walking carrying the dishes regardless of my worries.
I hurried along and quickly followed her through my breakfast until I choked.
Huk huk huk !
I immediately took a drink and sipped it. My gaze still looked at the direction my sister was walking while burying my lips in the mouth of the glass.
"... Are you done with Ana?" I asked back.
"Yes, brother,".my sister answered wearing shoes. "I'm afraid, Dad's gonna change his mind."
"Change your mind, what?" my many.
"Barring us from school" he said, looking at me while tying his shoelaces, next to him.
I was briefly happy. "Wow! Ana, why are you so smart today?" I immediately approached my sister pinching both of her cabi cheeks in anxiety.
"Sick brother!" shouted my sister spoiled.
"Wait for Brother, yes!" I immediately drove the dishes to the kitchen.
"Let's! You want to go to school now?" ask my father who is standing behind my brother.
My reflex turned my body looking towards the source of the voice that asked my sister. "Dad!" mummify slowly.
The glass I brought did not forget to put together with the plate, then I walked up to my sister. My father had been standing next to her at this moment to make my sister freeze.
"Our father is leaving now" I'll answer my father's question. Approaching my father and my brother.
"Why so fast?" My dad saw the clock.
My father gave permission. "Be careful on the road" my father's hand grabbed my sister's who wanted to kiss the back of his hand.
"Liyan!" call dad.
"Yes Dad," I said, tying my shoelaces.
"You too be careful on the road! Don't ever want to be invited by someone you don't know." My father looked at me worriedly.
"And don't snack carelessly," said mother suddenly.
"Yes," I replied as I picked up the backpack.
"Remember, if anyone asks you not to." My father reminded me once again.
"Dad! Liyan will no longer be invited by unknown people." Kissing my father's back.
"Don't forget! Take care of your sister, too" said my father, giving her the pocket money. "This is for two with your sister! If he asks for more, don't love."
"Good Dad." Shifted kissed the back of our standing mother's hand.
"If you're home don't stop at the stall" our mother said, insinuating that I did yesterday.
I smiled shyly at him and my father. Without thinking long I turned my head dodging from them tightly I swung my weak legs against my sister.
"Dad!" Running to call my sister.
"Yes, sister" said my sister. Looking towards me.
"Now, let's go!" I swing my legs while walking. "It's from Dad." I gave the pocket money according to my father's orders.
"Such germs, brother." My sister looked at it sadly.
"Emmm!" I'm nodding.
"Maybe your money isn't there, brother?!" Brother quiet.
"But that's your pocket money. Aye, right?" Looked at my sister, asking.
"It's not enough for me actually, brother", my sister's whining disturbed my comfort.
"Today, we're going home soon" I said.
"Engga Brother. Today we're long home" my sister continued.
"No Ana! Today, we're not long home" I said. Walking fast.
"Today we'll be home for a long time" said my sister once again.
"You don't want to lose. Ana today we're going home soon," I said once again against my sister.
"Old Brother." My sister continued to defend her words firmly.
Huh! Grunts and watches it. I kept quiet and threw away my eyes from him.
"Hey! Brother why? Nambek, huh?!" Sighted me.
"Engga! Who's licking?" I immediately arranged my face.
"Because he said to go home long ago, sulk! Brother wants, if I also follow the crab," said my sister. Keep walkin.
"Don't!" My eyeballs immediately turned to hear it. "No Ana! No. gabe. You do not lash, yes" I asked, clutching both hands into the air.
"Eat him, Brother don't try to snack." My sister pouted with spoiled.
"All right! Dear sister. From now on we won't be home late again." I hugged my sister.
"Yes!" my sister said happily. "Today I won't get angry anymore" his face immediately sparkled. The scale goes on very fast. "We'll be there soon, brother."
"The gate is wide open" I said looking ahead.
"Many children have come." Both of my sisters eyes looked at the gate.
"Eachly, we must walk even tighter," I pulled my brother's arm.
