(Revised) Regretting It Too Late
LA
"Dad, Mother Dinda misses you" again I voiced longing for both my parents in my heart. That night I slept hugging my family picture, I closed my eyes slowly. I let go of my tiredness, hoping to dream of meeting my parents who I miss so much in my dreamland.
The sound of the morning bird singing woke me up. I woke up in a fairly fresh situation because last night I had spilled and poured all my grievances on the creator.
"For non Dinda, breakfast has been prepared if non Dinda want breakfast first please" said art Dinda.
"Thank you bi" replied Dinda smiling
"Non was Mr. Bambang telon he said non Dinda will immediately leave this afternoon as well and all non Dinda needs I have prepared in non Dinda suitcase, non Dinda, goods times are less likely to be checked first" art dinda.
"Oh, my beloved aunt is always quick yes in every way, thank you so much later Dinda check after breakfast" Dinda praised the art with great pleasure.
"Non Dinda's fine there" Art Dinda.
"Yes, definitely" replied Dinda over breakfast.

My doorbell was there, in my heart I asked who came early in the morning, and when I saw who came in was my best friend Yulia I was very happy, because all this time he suddenly stayed away from me for no reason.
"Dinda why are you so much the same as me. Huhuhuhu" reprimanded Yulia who was crying in my arms.
"Sorry that time you were also in trouble so I deliberately did not tell you" replied Dinda.
"You don't hate what they say, do you?" yulia asked Adinda while crying
"Of course not, why should I hate you because it's your business and you must have a reason to do that" she replied smiling
"Thank you Dinda. Why are you suddenly leaving me? Can't you go to college here?" ask yulia
"That's all Om Bambang's decision, he wants me to be able to focus and learn better than what's here" he said
"But you don't forget me when you're there" Yulia
"Yes, definitely" sister
I'm so glad my best friend has returned and is not angry with me anymore, it will be my strength as long as I'm in LA later.

Airports.
I hold my best friend Yulia's hand, that afternoon she took my departure.
"A ready? Everything is complete. Enter in another 15 minutes your plane leaves, and there Om has rented an apartment for you" om Bambang
"Yes, thank you Om" Adinda
"Dinda be careful, promise always call me" Yulia
"Yes, I promise. Then I leave first yes" adinda hugging yulia "Om Dinda depart" saying sister to om Bambang
"Yes, be a successful person. And here's a letter that arrived this morning, maybe it can get you excited there". Sideburns
"You'll find out later, open it when you're there" Om Bambang rubbed my head, and I've taken off to people's land.

Los Angeles
Finally after traveling such a long distance. I lay my body on the bed of the apartment that Om Bambang had prepared for me.
"University of California. Hem the place chosen by Om Bambang for me, apparently I was prepared for everything. Come on Dinda you can" I cheered myself up and put my foot in that new place.
It is a very crowded and very free place. After a few weeks I lived in this country with my life there by following all the activities there. And I also took up music training that became my hobby, in that new place I knew someone very well and I started learning about design from him. Because I also have a boutique so I want my boutique to have my own characteristics later. Aunt Angela she's a talented and very good designer to me, she gave me lessons and directions on design and even made me follow a special private design.
It didn't feel like a year I was in the country, and when I cleaned up my suitcase, a letter dropped by accident, and I remember it was a letter that Om Bambang gave me when I was about to leave here.
After taking a bath I threw down my body and opened the contents of the letter, how surprised I was when I saw the word written there.
*For my favorite daughter, Adinda.
Dear Assalammualaikum, I don't know who will meet you first, mother and father or what letter you sent this. For some reason I feel bad and nervous, I want to go home quickly and see you dear.
Dinda remembered the words of this mother, if one day something happens to mother and father Dinda must be a strong and strong child, dear.
Dear Dinda please forgive us who can not give happiness according to your wishes. Remember Dinda you have to be a tough person who can be a role model, do not leave worship wherever you are. Be yourself and always be gentle and kind to everyone. If anyone hurts you don't repay them with the same pain let them get what they want. Never hold hatred and resentment in your heart, my daughter, so as not to hurt you later.
Alright dear mother knows you can definitely pass all the tests and trials of the power later. Greetings from my mother and father always love you dear.
Wassalamu'alaikum's chat.
Signed by Mom and Dad.
"Mother, so mother already has a premonition for everything, mother purposely prepared this letter for Dinda. Mom, Dinda also loves mom and dad very much. Dinda promised to be the person that mom and dad wanted to be" I decided in my heart after reading the letter left by my mom.
"Hello.. Dinda how are you? You forbid Om for video calls and only phone calls. Why after you never come home? Om so sorry to have told you to go to college there" om Bambang
"Waalaikumsalam Om, Dinda is fine here and Dinda can now do all the tasks of Om well. Dinda deliberately did not go home so that Dinda can focus on Dinda's activities here, and when the balek later no one left here" adinda
"Yes, yes asalamualaikum. Sorry Om was just anxious, even when Didi went there you also did not meet him" Bambang om
"Haha... Yes Dinda deliberately did that, because Dinda knows that Didi mas met Dinda surely he would say Dinda. Didi likes to grumble" sister
"Yes already, the important thing is you there should be fine do not do things.." om Bambang.
"That violates the rules of religion and must take good care of yourself, must not be the bottom and affected by the same association here, right?" my answer that cuts the words of Om Bambang who always reminds me of things that might damage myself here, because here it is all free.
I am so grateful that there are still people who are kind and care about me. I also promised myself and those who have always supported me to be a better and more reliable person for everyone, especially myself.
"Yes, it's good to remember. Yes it's turned off yes because you have to go to the office to see the files that come in, remember you take good care of yourself there, assalamualaikum." om Bambang
"Iya waalaikumsalam." I also turned off the phone with om Bambang.
