The Struggle of a Child
Waking My Brother.
I'm the one on my sister's head to bed. I lay down my weak body comfortably. I pulled the blanket over my helpless body. I arranged the pillow that was on my head nicely.
I started to close my eyes slowly. The lights hanging right on the ceiling of the room are now alive accompanying our slumber. Our bedroom lights never die while we sleep because me, her son is afraid of the darkness.
The long night passed quietly. There was no sound of a bang attacking the room of our house that almost every day was heard breaking up the entire room of a small house.
Our small rented house and what it is. It used to be sprinkled with the warm affection of my father. But now all that has been lost in the blink of an eye. The marriage of Father and woman changed everything. Not to mention me who is now suffering from an illness. My spoiled sister has never been separated from her desire to stick to my father every day.
My sister has nowhere else to indulge but my father. My father never objected to my spoiled sister's attitude. When I saw my sister. My father immediately remembered the past of my mother's rapid departure. Therefore my father never let his guard down to pay attention to my brother and give affection.
"Liyan!"
Half conscious from my room. I heard a sound calling my name a little screaming. I blinked my eyes to see the situation.
"Liyan, wakeup!" Call my dad from outside my bedroom wall.
The morning that was present greeted me with a smile. Makes me immediately pull my body to stretch my stiff muscles due to sleep last night. In the bed I have not sat down. I still remember myself who forgot about my sleep.
I still put my mind together and stared next to me. Seeing my sister who was still sleeping closed her eyes. I'm the one who's jailing today on my cute sister's cheeks.
"Liyan! Why not come out too!" Shouted my father who was getting stronger.
Hearing my father's blaring voice. I came out of bed to my father with a blanket that covered my body all night.
"Yes, Dad!" In a soft voice I walked over to my father.
"What time is it?" My father said while preparing breakfast for us.
I who was near my father kept quiet and looked at the hanging wall clock.
"Hurry up, wake up your sister!" My father's orders to me.
Inevitably I had to wake up my sister who was still sleeping soundly."Dad, is it morning?" I said twisting my body slowly.
"Liyan, kinda fast your way a little." Shouted my father a little from behind me.
"Yes, Dad." I said keep walking.
Slowly my feet have brought me to the edge of the bed. I pulled out the blanket my sister covered her body.
" Deck, wake up, Dad!" I yelled a little softly as I pulled the blanket and poked her feet.
"Eem, brother!" My sister still closed her eyes while pulling back the blanket that now looks to cover her body again.
"Sir, let's get up, hurry up!" I stood up, shaking her feet until she woke up.
"Liyan! Where's your sister?" My father continued to bully me with his booming voice breaking my small eardrum.
I was confused to see my brother and my father. My mind, filled with my desire to heal, now feels tangled.
"Yes, Dad.. This is again built!" Shouted me from inside the room.
"Fuck, sister!" My sister said with a little annoyance. " But from now on! Noisy brother!" My sister's grumpy grunts were annoyed with a snort.
"Wake deck! It's morning already. You want to go to school." I said I kept seeing my sister tilting her body while covering her ears with a pillow.
I saw my sister so hard to wake up. Dragging my feet to the corner of the bed.
" Sister, what time is it?" Asked my sister spontaneously sitting down by opening her eyes wide. " ha! Sis." While looking at me sharply.
I was shocked and moved from my place.
" Sister doesn't know the deck!" Shrugging my shoulders with my face.
My sister immediately pulled over her blanket and went out of the room looking at the clock. With a hasty step he smashed into the outskirts of our room door. Stabilizing both of his eyes. Looking straight ahead.
" Anna, you just woke up?!" Ask my father to my brother.
"Yes, Dad!" My sister said slowly.
"You want your school?!" Ask my father in an investigation. " I think where are you. Going to school but waking up long." My father said flatly.
Even I who was still weak was forced to drag my feet out to my father and my sister.
"Ana, weren't you built by your sister?!" Ask my father while glancing at me.
My sister just kept quiet and walked by ignoring my father's words. His face is so jutek. " Dad Built!" My sister said flatly as she picked up her towel hanging in the kitchen.
" Anna, you'll be late soon." My father was putting together the dishes he had washed.
Meanwhile, my contact mother who has not been seen by me. It makes me a big question mark. I also searched every room of our small house.
"Liyan, come here, son!" Call my father gently.
I walked slowly towards my father who was so busy every morning. "Yes, Dad."
" Fast eat! Just took your medicine!" My father gave the plate to my hand.
Spontaneously I welcome the plate from my father. My eyes that stared pusher saw the breakfast that was ready in my father's cooking.
" Liyan, is your medicine still there?" If you're done with it." Said my father who had finished composing his plate.
" It's still Dad." I said while taking rice and side dishes for breakfast.
My sister who is still bathing is not seen either.
After I finished taking my breakfast I took a glass filling my drinking water. I dragged my weak feet with plates and glasses filled with drinking water into our front room.
I put my feet on the floor. The plate containing rice and side dishes I lay in front of me with a glass. I slowly feed the rice into my mouth while chewing slowly. I who are lazy to eat must spend my rice until it is not there.
My father was standing looking at me from the kitchen. Her face was so tired that I watched the rice that I ate.
" Liyan, is it over?!" Ask my dad to know.
" It's been, Dad!" I said with the last spoon. Taking the glass sitting next to me, I sipped it for a moment.
Not long after I finished eating. Suddenly my sister came in. My sister is now getting ready to go to school. Walked swiftly to the room and put on her uniform.
