A Friend From the Past
Section 12



One week later


Today Elin is getting ready to go to the SS city, because he will continue his education there. He also wants to forget all the bad memories that are here, forget someone he loves but has incised deep wounds as well.


Elin also deliberately did not give news about his departure to the SS City. I don't know what Elin was thinking that clearly now she needs a new situation to forget everything. But that does not mean Elin does not love his best friend, he loves them very much but Elin himself is confused if he has to say that he will move there with his family.


Yes, they will all move to that City for their own reasons. If the Mother will indeed follow Elin when the child says he will go to college in the City and the Mother must follow Elin to live there. But there Mother Wati will also start her business, which is to open a restaurant with the help of her sisters as capital and mother Wati promises to return it if her business has advanced. Unlike the father because three days before Elin's departure, The father got a task from his boss to manage the Supermarket owned by his boss who was there so he was happy to accept it because there was also the eldest daughter continued her education need not be far away from him. Although Dirman's father was only a low-class employee but his boss was very trusting of him because of his good performance and also honest, and meticulous and deft. While the younger brother will go where their family goes because there is no way Nadya lives alone in the house let alone the sister is timid.


Currently, he was still in the room inspecting all the items to be brought. There is a sense of heaviness in the heart of leaving this house but how else, he must continue his education.


'' baby, are you all?'' ask Bunda Wati when he entered Elin's room


'' answered Elin


'' yaudah yuk come out later you have bad luck ''


'' yes mother''


They came out of the room to the living room, where all the family had gathered there to take Elin. Once all was ready they began to board the car that would take them to SS City. The car began to leave the grounds of Elin's house, in the car all seemed silent without anyone to say until Dirman's father began talking there.


'' Son have you told your friends?'' he looked at the person asked


'' not yet, but they already know that I went to college there ''


'' you better tell them that we moved there, said Dirman's father


'' yes yeah''


After several hours of travel, they finally reached their destination. Looks one-story house different from the old Elin house, the house that will be occupied by Elin and her family is only the first floor but looks quite spacious. This house was bought with his father's savings and assisted by his om-om Elin.


They began to enter the house and sit in a chair in the living room. It has been two hours they sit there with the family and now the big family Elin pampit home because tomorrow they have been doing their own activities. After all, the Elin family went straight into their rooms.


...****************...


The sound of a reverberating dawn Adhan was able to wake up a girl who was wrapped in a blanket in her room and slowly open her closed eyes. Little by little the eyes began to open, and after that he moved to sit and then to the bathroom to clean the body to carry out his duties as a Muslim.


An hour passed, now Elin was neat with her casual clothes. He walked out to the kitchen to help his mother.


'' bun Elin bantuin ya '' bargain Elin


'' yes, son ''


'' What do you want to cook? '' asked Elin


'' dad where bun ''


'' I'm ready to go to the new Supermarket''


'' owh, if Nadya? ''


'' the same is ready to go to his new school ''


They began to cook the menu today, looking very deft Mother and child this one. Now it's Elin's turn to make his favorite menu is fried rice because Elin does not like rendang. has been a few minutes finally finished also kitchen affairs. Now they are serving it at the dining table, when serving Nadya comes approaching.


'' the breakfast bun is ready?'' ask Nadya who is sitting at the dining table


'' it's a pity, but the meal is waiting for me soon also down replied the mother wati


'' yes mother''


'' owh yes deck, today is the first day you study at your school, study diligently and do not be naughty said the mother wati


'' ready mother, adek will study diligently ''


'' well that's just the father's son he said who had walked up to them


'' he yes yah'' Nadya kekeh


They began to eat their breakfast each with a little interspersed with laughter caused by the behavior of the father. After Dirman's father left for the Supermarket and Nadya left for school. While Mother Wati and Elin are home to clean the house considering they just moved, after all Elin is not doing any activities.


'' when did you start opening your food stall? '' asked Elin on the sidelines washing dishes


'' maybe one more week, sis, you guys find a place'' replied the mother who is still cleaning kitchen utensils


'' owh yes mama'' he said while mangosteen


'' bun brother wants to find work huh, itung-itung ngisi spare time can you ?'' he added


'' if about that later brother asked father yes, if the mother is not an important problem you do not forget your obligation to college dear'' said the mother of the gentle and loving wati


'' okay mother, later sister try to ask father ''


After the business of washing dishes and cleaning the kitchen now Elin is washing clothes while Mother intends to go to the market because she has to fill the refrigerator stock with various contents inside. Actually Elin wanted to accompany the Mother to the market but she undone because it was better she did other work at home and happened to be dirty clothes was also quite so she decided to wash clothes while listening favorite music.


While Mother has now boarded a taxi to the market, not long ago Bunda Wati has arrived at the nearest market from her home. Bunda Wati quickly went down after paying her tax bill, then stepped into the market. In addition to the market for shopping, actually Bunda Wati wants to find a seller that he can make a subscription for him to shop when he has opened his food stall, so the story of Bunda Wati was willing to survey directly to the market to know which is good and which is not.
