The Struggle of a Child
Lunch Part 2
Once I reach the guest room. Suddenly I heard the coughing voice of a middle-aged man.I immediately ran over to the kitchen room.As soon as I heard there was a coughing sound. I ran with a smile.My little round eyes glow clearly on my face.My thin little lips curved to form a beautiful smile on my eyes.
The smile on his face is still visible."Daddy!" Run me for a moment jerked toward my father. With a flickering step I pulled his rough-feeling arm.
With his thin body and a slightly wrinkled look coming towards me.Seeing so tired."You're home, son!" With a bucket full of water in his hand.
Eem! I looked at my father with a nod of my head in response.
His body began to wither. Walking in with a bucket in his hand.***** so heavy breath and a raucous sound.Walking in a hurry.Seeing me who walks beside him.
I look at him softly. This afternoon he came home so quickly.Cooking for the sake of his son "the fruit of the heart".With a tired body he prepared everything.
From quite a distance I saw my spoiled sister. Still elegant with his game being so weird to me, school equipment! The school uniform was still neatly displayed on his body.The lightning black shoes covering his legs had been removed. And sat sweet on the floor right next to him.
Her small laughter sounded occasionally with melodious in my ears.The small movements of her lips moved with the curves of her beautiful little lips.Small little laughter occasionally sounded by me who was standing in the kitchen with my father.
I'm standing right on the corner of the kitchen wall. Seeing my father's sad face.So sincere without burden. Doing everything ourselves for us. From every breath that comes out sounds so heavy.Breath that is tired.His eyes that look cute as if the answer if he is tired.
I'm the one standing behind my father. Occasionally look at the front door of the house.See Mom my chauffeur has gone home or not? With a long breath.
I dragged my feet to the front room. Where my sister sits sweetly while playing her school equipment.Once my father says to me.
"Liyan, you don't go anywhere! After Dad finished cooking we ate together.But Dad still hasn't seen your mother .Has he gone home?" Ask my father while looking at me.
"Yes,Dad! Looks like Mom hasn't come home yet because I didn't see her."Stand still beside the middle door.
Tired of standing and seeing my father who was busy with his kitchen.I also went to leave him alone.Sit near my sister while watching him play with his school equipment.
"Sir, we're playing!" Unleashing the silence created between the two of us.With a head bobble in response I refused.
Playing with the school equipment was not what I liked.Because I prefer to play in the wild.However, because my father's guard is so strict against me.So,I don't have a lot of opportunities to play outside.My father often locked me in the house because he was afraid that I would go around. Then, there and do not know the way home.In addition, it happened a few days ago about the person who wanted to take me away from him.
A few minutes after my father's anxiety about my mother contact me.Suddenly heard the sound of footsteps approaching our house.From behind the door exposed to the sun. The shadow looks at our house.
I was sitting sweetly looking at my sister.Snapped with the shadow I saw from the tail of my eyes.Reflex immediately I turned my head to see the shadow.
"Assalamualaik."
"Wa'alaikumussalam." My father in the kitchen answered the greeting he had heard.
Not how long! My father called us while handing us a plate that had been filled with rice, vegetables and vegetables on top of it complete with drinks.
"Liyan, Anna, let's eat, son!" Call my father while holding two plates in his hand.While walking we took the plate from my father's hand that walked over to us.
For today! My spoiled sister no longer asked to be bribed to eat.Because just now my father said to my sister who was sitting next to me."Today! Father's Son,kan! Already school means already big.So, should not be bribed again if eating.Well, from now on Dad's child must learn independently, yes!"
My father said to woo my sister meekly while caressing her head.
I sat next to him smiling in my heart, swallowing my food. My gaze also looked down at the food on my plate.Beserta glanced at the glass in front of me.Membisu a thousand languages only that I can do if I was near my father. Because if I make a sound, let alone! A little offending my sister must be my father was furious.
In silence I continued to eat my nose until it was finished during the day. My mother's voice was heard from the kitchen calling my father. My father accompanied my sister. Passed away from us. Especially for my sister! With the advice that was just given to my sister. My sister I see so well digesting the advice my father gave just before he left us.
Not for how long. I'm done.I want to get up and go play. Finally, it was stopped by my kind father. Carry a plate containing rice. He told me to sit near him.
"Liyam, you're sitting here!"
I stopped my steps too.
Instantly, I sat down beside my father to fulfill his request, staring out the door while looking at the people who passed from the front of our house. My father kept talking to me by enjoying the dishes on his plate. One that came to my mind from the words of my father that sounded in my ears.The recorded clearly in my memory.
The day sun that spouts its heat to the earth. Overriding the zinc roof of our house.Making a blow on my tiny body.Air to a hot afternoon. Blown by the wind slapped my tiny face.When carrying my wish to fly to the place of the game.
My father continued to enjoy his food.Spontan I just ignored in my empty mind. Meanwhile, my sister who was sitting in a chair. Already changed his clothes to play clothes.Prepared will go to play.
My father's lunch is over. Time for him to lay down his tired body for a moment.My mind has now started to drive away to the delusion of play.
But baby again my steps stopped! Because my father told me to stay at home even though he was sleeping. All that time I had to sit next to him. Even if I sit somewhere else.
The atmosphere in my house was so quiet. The afternoon that so imprisoned my body made me more constrained.Riuh the atmosphere of the outside game. Kids like me can't enjoy it freely. My father imposed such strict rules on me. Makes me more cornered.Cannot do anything easily.All my actions must go according to my father's wishes.There is not a single word that I can forget. Especially for me about.
His aim was so hard on me. Makes my little body tremble and the fear that lays in my soul.
Seriate.....
