Being the firstborn in the family is not easy. There is a saying that “the firstborn is a child who must have strong shoulders and a strong heart as hard as coral”.be the firstborn must have a heart that is as strong as steel. And there are many more sentences that must be heard by almost every firstborn in several countries, especially in the country that I occupy today.
Being first is not easy, so is being first.
Salsa, the firstborn child with a tiny face, 140 cm tall, has narrow eyes and blue and with long hair and often decomposes to almost below her back, very beautiful to look. Salsa was 10 years old and she lived with a very modest family, her father was Fadhil, she worked as a farmer in general, while her mother was Fitri's mother, she works as a Housewife, a job as a Housewife is an option for mothers who do not have enough education to get a decent job.
But work as a Housewife is not a bad thing, because being a Housewife is a noble job, especially in the eyes of husbands who understand how important the role of a mother in the household. Mother “First madrasah for her children”, that's how people call it. Salsa's father was the most patient of his 6 siblings. And Salsa is so grateful to have the most patient father in the world. Salsa in the Heart.
Salsa has one younger brother whom she loves very much, his name is Muhammad Fawwaz. The name Muhammad is the name of one of the Apostles in the teachings of Islam, and Fawwaz which means to get good luck. Salsa gave her name to her sister because she felt very lucky to have had a younger sister whom she had been very hopeful for. At the age of 10 this year Salsa, she has just had a younger brother, and the happiness he felt was greatly enjoyed by him without forgetting to thank God for answering the prayers he had been saying.
Before Salsa had a sister, she often asked her father and mother.
“father, mother... Why the hell does Salsa not have a sister?” Salsa asked as she looked at her father and mother.
“Please son, God has not given any more trust to your father and mother. You keep praying so that you can have a sister” replied his father while wiping Salsa's head spoiled.
“Salsa always prayed with God that Salsa had a sister, Salsa was tired of living in her own home. Salsa wants to have a younger brother like temen Salsa, her younger brother, she is cute and adorable”.
“Yes, you do not break up praying, you always pray for healthy fathers and mothers keep”. His mother answered while hugging Salsa and his father.
Salsa prefers to spend holidays at her grandmother's house, there is indeed a child from her mother who is still small, so Salsa is very happy to come there to play with her cousin.
“neneeekk.... Salsa's coming.. Salsa wants to stay here, Grandma. Salsa to play with Aqila”. Shouted Salsa looking for her grandmother.
“Sa... don't be noisy, Aqila's sister is sleeping tuh in swing” replied the grandmother who ran small from the kitchen to tell Salsa slowly so that Aqila does not wake up.
“Yaaahhh.. Sleeps. Though Salsa want to play with sister” replied Salsa with a disappointed look because he could not play with his little cousin.
“iyya. Later if your sister wakes up you play with her, now you change clothes first continue to the kitchen to eat. There is your favorite stir-fried shrimp in kitchen” replied grandma.
“wah shrimp grandma! I liked. Yes Salsa had eaten first deh” Salsa replied with excitement because in the kitchen her grandmother cooked her favorite sour sauteed shrimp.
Actually, Salsa's intention was to stay at Sami's grandmother's house just to play with her cousin.he felt very bored living in his own house, because he did not have a playmate.
Salsa was very happy at Sami's grandmother's house because she had many friends to play with, especially cooking games that became a favorite toy of 90s children.
“Salsa,Laila. We play yuk!” invite Intan to his two cousins who are busy playing with his little cousin Aqila.
“Main what? Nih same Aqila also main” Reply Salsa who is still fun playing cilukba with Aqila.
“ aahhh... do not get bored playing with Aqila mulu? Let's play cook-cook”.
“ if you play cook-cook let's go!” answer Laila who is the most hobby with the game.
And finally Salsa relented and they also played outside the house while breathing the morning air is very cool and untouched pollution like in cities. Salsa had just returned home from her grandmother's house on Sunday afternoon, and it was because Salsa's father had picked her up.
Salsa's life has changed after having a sister, she is no longer happy to stay at her grandmother's house. Salsa felt that she had to diligently help her mother, if there were clothes of her mother and her sister who was dirty, not to forget she was also looking for clothes of her father, she said, she had to wash it off immediately before going to school so that her mother would not feel tired from having to look after her sister and wash her dirty clothes.
“Mother, I want to wash dirty clothes. Still no one wants to wash?” Salsa asked her mother.
“Already son, that's all you wash, later you are late to school if the laundry is a lot” replied mother while pointing to some dirty clothes in a medium-sized basket.
“no kok ma'am, salsa entered the school at 8.30. So, mumpung still morning I just wash it. Instead of coming to school early in the morning just messing around. Mending help mom at home” replied Salsa reassured her mother that washing clothes does not make her late to school.
But for the business of cooking Salsa is still not allowed because he is still too small to cook. Her mother said she was afraid that her hands or face would be exposed to sparks or oil, so it would burn because she did not know much about cooking. Finally Salsa chose to help what she could do with her mother's permission, like washing earlier.
Salsa's childhood was enjoyed with great pleasure, especially when she had a sister, she hoped that her sister would later become a playmate and become a sister who could memorize the Qur'an’an, kind and obedient to all orders and afraid of His prohibition, more importantly, may his sister be devoted to both parents, that's Salsa's hope for his sister who was about 1 month old. Salsa also hopes that she can help her sister's school fees when she grows up. Many prayers and hopes that Salsa offered for his sister.
SERIATE.
