WOUNDS OF FLOWERS (DUE TO PREGNANCY OUTSIDE MARRIAGE)
Chapters. VI The adorable beauty

"Daughter, breakfast is yuk!" call Flowers on the princess who is cool watching the twin bald morning cartoons from the neighboring country.

"Before a minute, Ma," said the Princess as she fiddled to watch her beloved cartoon.

"You can watch it again in the afternoon, baby. You will have bad luck. Mama also has to open the counter, Om Niko comes the counter has not been opened yet. If your mom gets angry, how?"

"Let the Princess get angry back, Ma," said the Princess while grinning. "Suapin dong, Ma," smeared the Princess who had put on a plain face.

"Oh, ogah! Huge, already in school, where can be fed again. Like a baby boy, "push flowers.

"Aaaa, mama, Princess want a bribe. If not the Princess does not want breakfast," ajuk Putri made Flowers sigh. He always loses to the princess who is often spoiled on him.

The flower immediately took a small plate of fried rice along with an omelet that he had shared two, half for himself, and half for the princess. Then Bunga sat down next to the Princess while holding a plate of fried rice and began to thrust a spoonful of rice and slices of eggs into the little mouth of the Princess. The princess smiled broadly at the mother who always obeyed her wishes.

"Ma-a-cih, muamua," said Bunga's beloved daughter with a mouth full of rice made the Flower chuckle amused.

"Save the food first in his mouth, just talking," Bunga drag while wiping the rice that is in the corner of the Princess' lips.

"Ma, said the mother is the face of the Princess like papa, if Abang roughly looks like who, ma? Does it look like mama?" chirping the Princess suddenly made the Flower instantly stop its mouthful. His eyes look red. The flower raises its head so that the feather does not fall on the cheek.

"Ma, sorry Princess. Princess ... not intentionally," regretted the Princess who again made her mother cry.

"No, my daughter is not wrong. Come on, hunt the rice!" the flower demands a smile. Dutifully, Putri finished the fried rice until without rest. Not wanting to make his mother sad again, Putri to ignore the cartoon he had watched since. Flowers smile to see her daughter eating voraciously despite always being so perfunctory.

'Always healthy, baby. So smart kid. Mama loves you.'

"The hunted princess went in, and the bell rang!" tell Flowers when they stand in front of the gate of Kindergarten

Hasaniah.

The princess nodded, then greeted the mother while kissing the back of the Flower's hand. Flowers smiled broadly at the sight of her daughter entering the school while waving towards her.

"Well, what a beautiful princess you are, Mom! But I don't think she looks like her mom, like her dad, do you? So wonder who the father of the Princess," chirped one of the guardians of the students who also just delivered his son.

"I also wonder if you are. You see, during the neighborhood with this Flower Lady I have never even seen the Princess' father. The Princess' father is still there, isn't he? Or the rumor that the Princess is an illegitimate child is right?" timpal other mothers who are neighbors with Flowers.

"Sorry ladies, I'm sorry!" pamit Bunga does not care about the questions of people who he really understands the purpose. Especially if not to honor it. Bunga was surprised, when he was most reluctant to take care of the lives of others, but why people like to gossip about it. As if gossiping is their staple food that if missed one day can make them hungry.

Actually Flowers are angry and hate when people call their children illegitimate. But if he responds more, then they will be more excited and reluctant to stop. Therefore, he chose silence. He didn't want to ruin the mood. He also does not want to find trouble. Enough had been a few years ago because too responding to the scorn and gossip of people who ended up in a fight made him forced to leave the contract. He can't fight. She was just a single mother, fighting right, left, front, back neighbors, where she could. Various insults and slanders make him sometimes want to give up on life. But if he dies, what about his daughter? Suffice his daughter to live like an orphan, do not he become an orphan as well.

Life as a single mother is not easy. Moreover, he did not have a single family. As a result, people, especially mothers, are often wary of him. Saying herself this cheap woman, nets, seductress, pregnant out of wedlock, sugar baby, office mistress, all the reproaches and insults they throw without shady aling-aling. They feel they are the most perfect. Not thinking, right or wrong. Don't think what they say can hurt someone else's heart or not. As if insulting others can provide their own satisfaction.

"Mbak, Ma'am Bunga," call someone to make the dreamy Flower flinch.

"Yeah, Niko! Sorry, mbak daydreaming," said Bunga felt ashamed of himself for being caught daydreaming while guarding the counter.

Niko, the owner of the counter smiled.

"What is mbak? Aha, must be daydreaming about the price of chili onions that rose drastically huh! Or again daydreaming of the handsome Niko nagging Rowoon?" Tempta Niko while putting her hair back. Narcissistic.

"Didn't be so narcissistic!" mocked Flowers while chuckling.

"Basic, ABG labile!" teasing the Flower while taking something out from inside the drawer. "Now, deposit this Week and this initial list of the same vouchers that run out. And this is the report this week" Bunga said, handing over an envelope and a book to Niko.

Niko accepted it with a big smile.

"No college?" ask Bunga to Niko who was putting the report book in her bag.

"Emmm .. There's only 10's. Be quiet. Duh kangen same Princess I mbak. But the Princess came home at 10, ma'am. Can't see dong," her self-talk, replied to herself making Flowers chuckle.

"Sir, don't get too close to the Princess!" Flower's speech suddenly made Niko's eyebrows rise next door.

"Why?"

"People thought you were the Princess' father knew not. What is our Princess really? Bothered mom, masa' his father leaning bourgeoisie like gini, not really!"

"Yes, kirain napa! Let it go, mbak. Want to be made the father of the real Princess also Niko willing. Princess is beautiful, cute, and funny. Moreover, her mother hmmm beauty ouhai, ' he said of course praise to Bunga only he said in his heart. "But how strange, don't you want to be with Niko? Niko is handsome, cool, macho, body sixth pack, Niko's smile is also sweet teasing. Girls on campus Niko aja in line to be Niko's girlfriend, why don't you want it anyway? The difference in our age is not far too mbak, not up to 3 years," added Niko proud at the same time feeling surprised by the attitude of flowers that are indifferent to its charm.

"God, praise yourself! Canning also ... "

"Who's side?"

"Poppa dong, Om. The proof is a beautiful princess like this, isn't it Ma?" chirping the Princess suddenly made the Flower almost choke on her own saliva.

"Why has the princess come home?" ask Bunga wonder. He deliberately ignored the curse of the Princess earlier so as not to discuss about her father again.

"Mommy Lisa's son is sick, Ma. Back then vomiting in class we kept being repaid deh," said the Princess while releasing her doll-shaped backpack.

"Hey beautiful, Om! Well, just now Om said miss Princess, uh it's been nongol aja," chirped Niko while smiling widely.

"Om Niko, in front there was someone selling a peek, Putri mau Om," the spoiled princess made Bunga reprimand her.

"Daughter," rebuked the Flower with a dislike look on his face. She does not like to see her daughter close to others.

"Sir, no papa!" sergeant Niko who understands Bunga does not want to trouble him.

"But Ko, he ... " The princess looked down lethargic. He knew his mother would ban it.

"No papa, ma'am. Niko was happy to admit this. Go, Put! Let's go!" exclaiming Niko while carrying the tiny body of the Princess.

Looking at the Princess who looked so happy to make the Flowers teary. Her daughter is so beautiful and adorable. Not a few people who offered to adopt it, but Bunga never allowed. Let him live poor as long as he can always be with his only daughter.

Meanwhile, at Soekarno-Hatta international airport, a handsome young man came down from the plane while removing his sunglasses. He smiled widely, finally he could set foot again in Indonesia. I can't wait to see the people closest to him.

He stretched out his hands while taking a deep breath and then exhaled.

"Australia, I'm back."
